There is Room for Rebirth in the 1950’s

After dinner, Zhang Guoqing washed the dishes, talked to Zhou Jiao, and walked to his elder sister's house.

Zhang Meili's family is eating.Seeing him coming, Zhang Chunming quickly pulled him to sit down for a drink.

Zhang Guoqing waved his hand again and again, "Brother-in-law, I just ate. I came to ask my eldest sister to help check safety. There is something to do in the evening. We will go out at around 7 o'clock and come back at 8:30."

"I'll go with you now." Zhang Meili hurriedly finished the remaining few mouthfuls.

Zhang Guoqing already knew that his brother-in-law was on the night shift, and he quickly pulled her and said, "Don't worry, it's still early. It's still too late to go when you are ready."

Zhang Ziwen's face flushed with anxiety, and he lingered on his chopsticks.He had been looking forward to going to his uncle's house, seeing that there would be no chance if he didn't talk about it, he pushed his disciple Wu, and secretly pointed at Zhang Guoqing.

Zhang Ziwu nodded, and quickly grabbed the food into the bowl.Standing on the side of Zhang Guoqing, he pulled the corner of his clothes.

Zhang Guoqing touched his head, "Is there any problem with the three of you brothers protecting your mother and Yaya to my uncle's house?" After speaking, the children cheered loudly.

Seeing Zhang Meili's objection, Zhang Chunming hurriedly persuaded her that he was on duty tonight and was worried about leaving the children at home.Let her take it all over.

Zhang Meili had no choice but to make the children obedient.I kept saying that I couldn't ask for anything in the past, and I couldn't have a lot of conditions.

Zhang Guoqing quickly dragged the three children out.Keep listening, the children don't have to go.She said so much and didn't worry about his brother-in-law's embarrassment.

When I was out, I just ran into Zhang Meihua taking the children to visit my eldest sister's house.When Zhang Meihao heard that she was going to take care of the children, she hurriedly asked Ziwen to go to her house and say.

A group of people dragged back to the small courtyard, it was late.

Zhou Jiao prepared safe milk powder, prepared snacks for the children, and was dragged away by Zhang Guoqing.

The time has not come, and the two of them are not in a hurry.The couple walked slowly down the street.Zhang Guoqing looked around, then stepped forward to pick Zhou Jiao and put it on the cart.Pushing the cart with both hands, whispered to her about going to the fishing village with Zhao Dashan's family on the weekend.I plan to let Mother Zhang come over to take care of the child for a day and take her to have fun.

Zhang Guoqing looked at Zhou Jiao's star-like eyes and the dimples on both sides of her cheeks, and smiled.He guessed that this girl must want to catch the sea.He is now looking forward to Cheng Hongli and her performance that day.I hope the winter wind won't blow away their passion.

Near the forest in the eastern suburbs, the kerosene lamp hung on the cart illuminates the opponent.The other party might not have thought that there was a little girl in the car. After a daze, she pulled out a cart from the forest.

Zhang Guoqing opened them one by one and nodded in satisfaction.After the two moved the food to Zhang Guoqing's cart, they paid the balance and watched the other party pulling the cart and running away quickly.Zhang Guoqing returned with a cart of grain.Along the way, there are only two bags left in the car?-These two bags are left to cover people's eyes and ears.

As soon as he walked to the door of his house, Wang Dasheng next door opened the door and shouted with a smile: "You are finally willing to come back? When I saw your yard lights were on, I guessed you were back." After speaking, he walked over to them and watched. Go to the bag on the cart and point your finger.

Zhang Guoqing showed a smile on his face and whispered: "It's food, just bought from the farm. Uncle, you haven't rested yet? Where's my aunt? Would you like to come in and sit?"

Wang Dasheng waved his hand and said in a low voice, "Your aunt is cleaning up the pigs in the water. Let me ask you if you want bones? They are not good things, but they are all internal prices. Your Uncle Chen bought me 20 catties at noon. I don’t know if you come back today, or I’ll tell you soon."

Zhang Guoqing nodded quickly, "Uncle, listen to you. You want as much as you want. It's just right to put it on the stove in winter."

Wang Dasheng hurriedly shouted, "My child, my mother, I took Xiaowu to the factory."

"Go early. It's gone if you're late. Come back early." The voice from the left courtyard was unusually loud at night.

Wang Dasheng responded loudly to her, and Bian Chao Zhang Guoqing pointed the grain in the car to the yard.

Zhang Guoqing picked up two bags and put them in the yard, and said to Zhou Jiao, "I'll go to the factory with my uncle first." After that, he hurried to catch up with Wang Dasheng, who was pushing the car in a hurry.

Old Chen from the right yard put on his coat and ran and shouted, "Hey, wait for me. I said, Lao Wang, why don't you call me? I only remembered the loud voice of your wife."

Wang Dasheng said aggrievedly: "Oh buddy, didn't you just go there at noon? I thought you wanted enough."

"Some relatives in the family asked for some, only a little is left. I just told my wife and I that I will go to see you tomorrow. When I heard you said that I would take Xiaowu to the factory, I jumped up and almost couldn't keep up with you. Xiaowu, this You buy more next time. Save and eat slowly."

……..

Zhou Jiao looked at the backs of them leaving, thinking about not going into the back room, and after talking with Zhang Meili who came out to watch the excitement, she walked to Wang's house where the courtyard door was wide open.No matter how you have to go over and say a few words, the etiquette cannot be bad.

A lot of wood was piled up at the door of Wang's house, and Zhou Jiao was most afraid of mice and bugs every time he came to Wang's house.

The Wang’s yard is about the same size as Zhou Jiao’s, and the layout is different. There are five houses and the middle kitchen. Now, except for the lights in the outer house and the west house, the yard is not lit and it is dark.

Zhou Jiao remembers that the Wang family raised a dog, and lived better than the Wang family. She chewed on bone sticks every day and didn't say hello when she saw people coming. She often glanced at them and turned her head proudly.As a husband and wife employee of the Roulian Factory, Wang Jiagou has a better life than the masses. This is a happy dog, and even more a proud dog.

Even more favored than dogs are the hens of the Wang family, who can spit and urinate and defecate wherever they are, without worrying about being occupied by others.You can also walk around the East House and West House.I wonder if these Wangjiaji sisters can still walk so freely in summer.

Zhou Jiao carefully stepped across the ground and finally came to the outer house.As soon as I entered, I smelled a strong meaty aroma.The cauldron on the earthen stove was gurgling.

"Auntie, this is Jiaojiao. I'm here."

Aunt Wang squatted on the ground alone to wash pig intestines and some pig entrails.There are still people talking in the room, and it seems that her child is still more pampered.

Aunt Wang raised her head to see Zhou Jiao, smiling, and said, "Come in quickly, Auntie has a living on her hands and can't walk away." After finishing speaking, she pointed her finger on the stool to let her sit down.

Zhou Jiao spotted a few stools full of grease stains at the corner of her eyes, her eyes twitched, and she quickly walked to the side of Aunt Wang.She prefers to smell the water, rather than sit down.This aunt Wang didn't know if it was the husband and wife who worked in the meat joint factory, and the house was all greasy.She had never seen one of their clothes clean.The only girl in the Wang family wiped her face white, but her clothes were dirty.

Zhou Jiao sneaked aside, feeling a little better, and said, "Auntie, thank you. Don't you say that we two have not had a chance to buy it. Nowadays, everything you can eat in your mouth is scarce, let alone That said."

"Thank you. I know you are back as soon as you turn on the lights in your yard. This time, you have a batch of pigs imported from Uncle Wang's factory. The above shows that the quantity is enough, and some bones are distributed for the employees to buy at internal prices. The price is very cheap. The bones are covered with meat. The workers in the factory heard about their internal supply, so they kept the meat vigorously.

Look at the meat on the table, I picked it all off.Is it cost-effective?You are too skinny, you have to eat hard, and boil the bone broth for a long time and drink it as water. You will definitely gain weight.

You see, when I was a girl, it was only 70 or 80 catties, and now it has to be doubled, all for soup."Aunt Wang kept talking and talking, trying to persuade Zhou Jiao to drink soup. She also looked up at Zhou Jiao from time to time.

Zhou Jiao squinted and nodded straightly in response.Listening to her talking about the benefits of the meat joint factory every year, whoever calculates the most, and who buys the most.

After talking about the Roulian Factory, I went on to talk about the few families in the front yard who can’t deal with, and whoever is better to get along with, will pretend to be rich, and whoever is so poor as pants.

After speaking, I asked Zhou Jiao's family whether they received the food supply this month?Tell her what to supply at the end of this month, what time to go for some things, how to sneak in the queue, and how to buy good cabbage.

From Chinese cabbage to sauerkraut, how to stew pork delicious with sauerkraut, the price of pork, and how to make bacon.

Zhou Jiao's legs were a little tired, and she secretly changed positions.Seeing the other party gossiping constantly, she is really enthusiastic, but she talks too much, so she can say-can she go first.

Aunt Wang was talking, and suddenly shouted: "Oh, look at what I said and forget the time. You go back! It's not that my aunt won't keep you, and the children can't leave you at night. You can come anytime during the day. Your mother came here specially to let me take care of you. Don't be polite, remember to call me if you have anything."

Zhou Jiao heard it like the sound of heaven, and it turned out that Aunt Wang's loud voice was also a kind of beautiful music.I exchanged a few words with her, carrying a bowl of meat that Aunt Wang died and Piston gave me, and she left the Wang family yard, and she walked quickly.

Entering her yard, Zhou Jiao looked at the fat pile in the bowl in her hand.He took a long breath and looked at the yard on the left, covering his mouth stupidly and laughing.

I went back to the kitchen and washed my hands, staring at the bowl of meat in a daze.

After Zhang Guoqing and Wang Dasheng separated, they drove the car back home.As soon as the children heard the sound of the door outside, they all ran out, and when they saw him, they yelled for meat.

In the kitchen, Zhang Guoqing picked up the bag and poured it into a wooden tray. Seeing Zhang Meili and the others packing up, he smiled and said, “It’s really good luck tonight. The old Chen next door asks for pig offal that I don’t like. I want to sleep. Many people don’t want pig hooves, and pig tails don’t have any meat. I asked for them all."

Zhou Jiao nodded, luckily indeed.With so many bones, she might have to turn over her weight.

Chen Xiaobin shouted outside the door.

Zhang Ziwen opened the door and pulled him to the kitchen, cracking his mouth, saying that his uncle brought back a lot of bones.

Zhang Guoqing saw him jokingly: "Are you worried about my second sister? Come sit down."

"I'm worried about what's going on with you here. It's okay. Let's go back first. We will get together again when our parents come up in a few days."

Zhang Guoqing smiled and nodded. Seeing that it was late, I didn't keep them anymore. I picked some things and put them in a bamboo basket to send them home.
