The heroine of Kuai Chuan Zhi's family only farms

Chapter 1183 [1182] Eight Zero Ugly Girl Counterattack 9 (5000+)

A week after her mother arrived in Z City, she sent her a letter reporting her safety.

Said that the two of them have settled down and started to sell goods at a stall, so that the two sisters can take good care of themselves at home.

Now is 1991, which is a critical period of economic development, and their business has at least ten years of golden period.

If the time of these ten years is grasped well, the economic conditions will definitely have a qualitative leap.

Parents are not at home, so she will visit grandpa and grandma on weekends and buy them some eggs and snacks.

The required pocket money is deducted from the 50 yuan living expenses given by my mother.

The wheat fields have to be watered and fertilized every once in a while. She and her grandpa went to the fields to do these tasks.

I have to wait to water the ground. Sometimes when it's midnight, grandpa will let her go to bed and he will go by himself.

Of course, if the uncles and uncles find out with conscience one day, they will help their family water the land, and there is no need for grandpa to go again.

Generally, the land of the whole family is watered together, and the water pumps are bought by raising money from each family. When the electricity bill is watered, just write down the number and write it down.

Watering the ground is a time-consuming job. Although it is not tiring, it takes time to go from the beginning to the end of the ground. Where there is a leak in the middle, you need to shovel some soil to block it. If the water is blocked due to uneven ground, you have to drain it. Come on, it's a worry.

Spring and autumn are fine, but in winter, being in the ground is a torment.

So what a happy thing it is to have snow in winter, Mai Gai has a three-layer quilt, and will sleep with steamed buns on his pillow in the coming year.

She won't be able to take up the job of fighting pesticides. Grandpa will help them fight when he thinks about it, and he won't fight if he doesn't remember.

Therefore, their wheat production is the lowest among several families every year, and parents don't care, as long as there is enough for them to eat.

Generally, the wheat is taken home from the field, and the public grain part is deducted, and it is stored in the grain station.

When going to the grain station to get flour, the processing fee will be deducted, and some wheat bran will be given, which is used to feed chickens and ducks.

Grandpa disposed of all the wheat bran in their family, but when my mother left, she deliberately took [-] catties of flour. If only the few of them ate it, they could eat it for at least three months.

Before school started, I ate all the leftovers from the previous year, but my three meals a day were still cabbage and radishes.

After the beginning of spring, I go to the field to collect wild vegetables. In addition to steaming vegetables, wild vegetables can also be used to make dumplings. With eggs, the taste is very fresh.

Tired of eating radishes and cabbage, it's good to use wild vegetables to improve the food occasionally.

As the weather gets warmer, leeks also come out, and the first batch of leeks every year is the best.

Whether it is making pancakes, making dumplings, or making noodles, the taste is very attractive.

The artichoke planted in the corner of the house also began to sprout in spring. This kind of ginger can be eaten raw, pickled, or put into porridge like radishes, whether it is grandpa here or there, Planted every year, pickled every year.

The pickles in their house in the morning are all pickled with artichokes, fried with chili, and can be eaten for two or three days, which is very good for dinner.

There are also several large winter melons and pumpkins in the space, all of which she put in after picking them, so they are still very fresh.

When making millet porridge, put pumpkin in it, it tastes sweet and glutinous, and it is always delicious.

Now when she cooks at home, she still uses firewood and seldom uses coal, because she also thinks that rice cooked with firewood is better than coal. That's how I came here, now it's too late to mention the dirt.

You only need to wear a hat when burning the fire, and control the heat, and the meal can be burnt and fragrant.

In order to make a good casserole rice, she specially bought a suitable casserole at the meeting, and used the casserole to cook soup. The steamed rice is not to mention how delicious it is.

If you eat rice, the soft and glutinous layer on the top will be served to your grandparents, and the brown rice crust on the bottom is delicious every time she and her sister eat it.

Since she developed the habit, except for the occasional dinner that her grandparents cook by themselves, basically whenever she cooks, she will ask her grandparents what they want to eat.

As long as grandpa helps their family hoe weeds, or water the land and spread chemical fertilizers, she will buy meat for grandpa and make braised pork. Every time she eats her braised pork, grandpa and grandma are very happy. The soft, glutinous and sweet taste , can make my cousin cry.

Of course, a catty of meat is only a few yuan. Even if potatoes are added to it, and a bowl is served to grandparents, and the rest of the cousins ​​come over, they will get a share, and they may have to pour rice into the pot for rubbing The juice inside is so delicious that your fingers are sticky.

Probably because she generously invited her cousins ​​to eat meat. If my aunt steamed bean buns and pancakes, she would share some with them. Of course, if grandparents could eat, they would also send them over.

Although every family has their own little calculations, but in front of her sensible, they have to think of the old man.

Not to mention the three separated families, but the uncles and aunts who live in this courtyard, compared to last year, it is obvious that this year they have taken more care of my grandfather.

Wang Ting is not stingy, not only to the elderly, elders, if the younger siblings come in when she and her sister are eating, she will give them some.

For example, pumpkin cakes are baked golden and golden. If you want them to be delicious, you have to be willing to put white sugar, so when she was making pancakes, a younger brother and a younger sister from the fifth uncle's family, the younger brother from the sixth uncle's family, and her relatives Younger sister, they will surround her in a ball, with anticipation on their faces.

In view of her current age and conditions, she dare not do things that are too complicated, so what she can make is the food that her parents have cooked on weekdays, so that it seems logical.

Although she is generous, she will strictly vacate the food, vegetables, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar every week without exceeding the standard and not wasting.

The biggest advantage of having space is that no ingredients will be wasted. Whether it is rice noodle oil or vegetable meat protein, it can be kept fresh to the greatest extent.

What it looks like when you put it in, what it looks like when you take it out.

When the weather gradually warms up, the children like to follow the adults to the river to touch snails, shells, mussels, and duck eggs.

Because there are many wild ducks in the reeds by the river, and if you are lucky, you can pick up duck eggs, so the children like to go to the river.

Even if the parents make repeated orders, they can't stop these children, after all, they can't follow them all the time.

So children drown in the river every summer vacation. This time is better, at least they won't go swimming, at most they will hang around by the river.

In the 90s, the water was still very deep, and people still bathed here in summer, and the water quality was much cleaner than that of later generations. The surrounding natural ecological environment is incomparable to later generations.

Wang Ting doesn’t like to go to the river, mainly because the water depth is dangerous, so she expressly forbids her younger sister to go, instead of running to the river, it’s better to watch TV at home, and in order to watch TV, the younger brother and sister will go out to collect firewood, and work in the ground. live, because that's what watching TV pays for.

With their help collecting firewood, she can cook at home, and when these mischievous people come back, every family will have dinner.

After eating, everyone sits in front of the TV and watches TV. Watching TV is addictive, especially remembering the broadcast time, so you will wait on time.

Wang Ting does not participate every time, so her contribution fee in March is only 3 yuan, and she has a rest in February, and there is no contribution fee, and the contribution fee in March is not received until after the Ching Ming Festival. The sum is 180, the last Monthly living expenses cost 2 yuan, 3, so 780 yuan is left.

The living expenses of 30 yuan, in addition to the necessary living expenses, also need to add the filial piety to grandparents and grandparents.

As for the fertilizer that was sprinkled on the ground, Dad put it under the stairwell before leaving, and Grandpa could just pick it up when needed, so she didn't pay much.

Basically, the chemical fertilizers and pesticides that can be used are locked inside the small door in the stairwell.

In the 90s, there was another way for people to read short stories, which was to read a column in newspapers and magazines.

It is a great honor that after her contribution and communication, an emotional column was created for her in the provincial newspaper, where she can write short serial novels, within 12 words, and about 2000 words for one issue.No publication on Sundays, limited editions on Saturdays, only weekdays, that is to say, only serialized from Monday to Friday, [-] words a week, [-] words a month, finished within three months, three months later, Then settle the manuscript fee.

Because they want to conduct a questionnaire survey, as long as they are approved, the short stories will be edited into a special issue of novels and then published. All the copyrights are still with her, but there will be a certain publishing fee for each publication.

Because of this, she also knew a lot of magazines such as monthly novels, and felt that this proposal was really good, and it could maintain long-term stable development, which was better than racking her brains to submit articles.

Every time she submits an article, she must write about the current hot events, so she has to listen to the radio frequently to capture useful information.

With the special issue, I discarded other submissions, and now concentrate on constructing novels. Of course, these novels are all based on realistic themes, and I choose a theme to write. It is not the same concept as Internet articles. You must definitely distinguish the difference between them. .

To put it bluntly, even if it is a modern novel, it seems to be written by a famous writer like Mo Yan.

Therefore, starting from April, she will enter the serialization stage, and three months later, she will be paid according to the number of words.

Even if the settlement is based on the lowest file, five yuan per thousand characters.A total of 600 yuan.

Submitting the manuscript once a month gave her enough time to adjust and revise.

Wang Ting's pen name [Man Ting] is named after the two sisters.

In mid-April, after a week of continuous rain, Manman developed a high fever. Fortunately, Wang Ting prepared some commonly used medicines at home. Using medicines and physical cooling methods, Manman's high fever was effectively controlled.

Considering her sister's illness, she ran to school early in the morning and asked for leave for both of them.

It took three days of intensive care before she fully recovered.

On the way home from school on Saturday afternoon, she saw a few children picking up rubbish on the dung pile, and finally found a balloon and blew it up, and there was a little MM head on it, and then she thought she had seen this thing before , the shape after the balloon deflated made her instantly embarrassed.

I am a god!This brat, why do you put everything in your mouth?Isn't this what other couples use leftovers?

The key children are still robbing there, and I feel a little nauseous for a moment, and things from the garbage dump can be stuffed into their mouths casually, it's really...

Then he turned around to teach his younger sister, who just turned her head and glanced at it, and she was disgusted: "Understood, sister, I don't pick up trash."

The pond in the village at this time has not yet been dried, and the children like to wander around the pond after school. From time to time, they use bottles to pack tadpoles home, or three or five people play hide-and-seek, jump rubber bands, and play with sandbags.

The children living on the same street basically all go to the same school, and they all grew up together. It is quite normal to go to one family today and another family tomorrow.

Of course, there is nothing that can be hidden from the affairs in the village. A few old women sit under the big tree every day, and they have troubles with each other. Who do you think you can hide from them?
Praise you in front of your face for being sensible, and know how to take care of your grandparents, but turn around and say that you are ugly, and you don't know if you will be able to find your in-law's family in the future.

She also said that her parents are really capable of tossing around, wouldn't it be good to farm and sell vegetables at home?Why do you have to run out, do business, do business, don't know how to take the child out, just throw it at home...

Every time I heard about Wang Ting, I pretended I didn't hear it. Is she okay, married or not, what does it have to do with them?
She is not good-looking, but it's not to the point where she can't get married. It's really a salty carrot and nothing to worry about!

At the end of May, my father came back to harvest wheat, and the school also had a wheat harvest holiday to help the family harvest wheat.

There are too few harvesters, and I don't know if I can get them.

Therefore, every household cuts the wheat from the small plot first, then pulls the wheat back from the small plot and piles it to the threshing ground for exposure.

On such a hot day, I went to the field just after dawn, and I didn’t know how to go home when it was dark in the evening. Although I must avoid the hottest time period, 11:[-] to [-]:[-] pm, I can do it so quickly wherever I can. Finish?Especially with such a small family, even grandpa had to go to the field to help.

The two sisters followed their father and grandfather to the field at dawn, and their grandmother cooked at home until eleven o'clock.

Wang Ting took her younger sister home to cook, and her father gave money to buy meat. She bought not only meat, but also tofu, and cut the meat into cubes, and the tofu into cubes, and made sticky stew.

Then roll out the noodles, put them in cold water, grab a handful of washed green vegetables and put them in the pot to blanch for a while, mix them with the noodles, and when dad and grandpa come back, quickly pour hot brine on the noodles, which is delicious and delicious The noodles were ready, and my father ate them so much that my grandpa praised them for being delicious.

She also picked some peanuts, cooked some spiced peanuts, and took two cucumbers as garlic cucumbers.

I also used well water to freeze two bottles of beer for Grandpa and Dad.

Dad was satisfied and comfortable eating, and repeatedly praised Wang Ting for her improvement in cooking.

Beer is not expensive in this era, fifty cents a bottle. It is not a good beer, but it is definitely brewed with grain.

I bought two bottles for one dollar.

The younger sister clamored to drink soda, and the two of them finished the [-] cents bottle of soda at the door of the store.

Before leaving, I didn’t forget to use the remaining ten cents to buy four bags of ice cubes, which are actually ice water made of water and sugar. I like to freeze them into ice cubes and sell them in summer. The sales volume is very high, because it is cheap and only costs ten cents. Can buy four bags!
People who have refrigerators put a large bag wholesale at home, freeze it into ice lumps, and drink it in summer to relieve the heat.

Dad and grandpa went back to sleep tired after eating. There was an electric fan in the house, which was spinning.

In the era without air conditioning, summer was hot, but it was definitely not as hot as later generations.

The two sisters were drowsy even when they climbed onto the sleeping cabinet, even if their father started snoring, it didn't stop the two of them from being drowsy.

When the two of them woke up, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon, and Dad and Grandpa had already gone to the field with a sickle and water.

Before she took a nap at noon, she boiled a pot of mung bean soup to relieve the heat, and put some sugar in it. When she woke up, the mung bean soup was missing a lot. It should be that her father poured it into the oversized plastic cup he brought back. to go.

The pumping in the basement is icy cold. It's a pity that their house doesn't have a well, otherwise they can put mung bean water in it to freeze it.

Fortunately, the mung bean water had cooled down, so she brought her sister and her water glass. This is also the water glass that her father brought back for the two of them. It has a capacity of 750 ml. Each of them filled a large glass of mung bean water, put on straw hats, and wore Wearing parents' worn-out shirts, covering themselves for fear of getting sunburned.

"Sister, I still have to go to the ground, it's too hot, can I not go!"

"If you don't help, Dad will work twice as hard. Don't you feel bad? Let's go, let's work until the evening and come back to cook. If we can help a little, grandpa is so old, and he is still helping us in the field. We can't be ignorant of good and evil!"

The reason why grandpa helped them this year was also because Wang Ting took good care of him. Only his sons, except for the second child who brought a lot of things every time he came back, the other sons could hardly think of their parents. .

Unlike the two girls in front of me, they bring over as long as they are delicious. Although he wanted to say a few words to them and prevent them from spending money randomly, his wife stopped him and didn't let him meddle in his business, and said that if he wasn't too stingy , How could the fourth daughter-in-law let the two of them cook by themselves.

And let grandpa see if the faces of the two girls are eating in the past few months?Comparing the hatchback, you will know what kind of life it was when you followed them.

Now I don't bother you to take care of the two of them, and in turn the two children take care of them. This is meat, and eggs and tofu are brought to you. In such a big family, only these two are filial.

So grandpa didn't say anything after all, he didn't pick or talk about what he usually did and ate, and this maintained the most basic relationship between grandpa and grandson.

Now that the son is back, in order to take care of them, the granddaughter cooks in different ways all day long. It is really painstaking, and it is better than the food that the old woman has cooked all her life.

I went to the field at [-] o'clock in the afternoon, and it was still very hot, but no one said anything. They bent over and started cutting the wheat. After cutting the small fields, they cut the large fields. The hot ones are just a matter of these few days, and they will not be harvested any more. The wheat is about to explode and fall into the ground, so if the harvester does not come, they cut it by hand. It is a little tired, but it is a year's ration.

Wheat cannot be harvested when it is dry and can no longer be dry. That will cause huge losses. The seeds will fall into the ground if you touch them a little bit, so you plan to harvest them when they are half dry. Let it dry, and it will fall off as soon as you pat it.
