The years of red flags

Chapter 70 Years Ago
The southward wind from Siberia caused Zhong Yuemin's roar on the roof of the cave to dissipate in the air before reaching Baidian Village, and his communication with Qinling was basically cut off.

Zhong Yuemin finally realized what it feels like to be a bachelor, which also aroused everyone's booing. Whenever he felt bored, someone would deliberately say to him: "Yuemin, if you are really bored, why don't you go to the top of the cave?" With a roar, it doesn't matter whether Qin Ling hears it or not, since we can hear it anyway, we can take it as a relief."

Zhong Yuemin couldn't refute anymore, he was no different from being a bachelor now, and he couldn't irritate anyone anymore.

The cold winter made the composting impossible. Fortunately, enough earthworm powder was prepared before, otherwise the fifty chickens would have a hard time.

The villagers stay at home for winter when they have nothing to do. Anyway, it is the slack time. Their lives are more boring than the educated youths. Many entertainment activities passed down from their ancestors in the past have been banned. Many people can only rely on The base of the wall basks in the sun.

The educated youth is much better. Jiang Hua brought a lot of books. He stole a lot of books from the library last time. In addition to technical books, there are also literature.

Seeing that the end of the year is coming, the village is also preparing to start paying wages. The wages in the village are to distribute food by centimeters, which is the family's rations throughout the year.

This year, because of rushing to plant some potatoes and sweet potatoes, although it was not the right time, there were still some harvests, and the villagers got more rations. It should not be a problem to last for half a month to a month, which also made the villagers a little more smiley.

When the new year comes, it is rare for the villagers to be more generous. The pigs are slaughtered in the village, and each household can get about a catty of meat, which is a rare commodity all year round.

Then go to the supply and marketing cooperative in the town to buy some candy, and the rich will tear a piece of cloth, and the New Year will pass like this.

As for the firecrackers that children can't forget, it's basically a delusion. How can the family have spare money for children to listen to and play.

Jiang Hua bought a few firecrackers and distributed them to the children in the village, each with a maximum of a few firecrackers.

This was the first time in their lives that the young people went out alone to celebrate the New Year. Everyone wanted to eat better, but they didn't have much money in their pockets. In the end, they had to scrape together some money and wanted to buy some white bread dumplings.

Looking at the two yuan and thirty cents that everyone collected from their empty pockets, Jiang Hua volunteered to take over the job of purchasing.

Zheng Tong is a delicate mind, he knew why when he saw Jiang Hua doing this, although he didn't know how much Jiang Hua had, but he probably wouldn't be less, so he also volunteered to help carry, and even dragged Zhong Yuemin together.

Zhao Dayong watched the three leave, and asked wonderingly: "How many things can you buy with just such a small amount of money, and three people need to carry them together."

Cao Yang took the dirt on the ground and threw it at Zhao Dayong: "You are stupid, Huazi is obviously trying to put money in it, although I don't know why Huazi is rich, but he has a good heart and will definitely let you have a good time this year of."

Jiang Biyun said: "He is a child of the compound. His conditions are much better than ours, and he is also a good person. I heard that he can be a soldier. It seems that he gave up to take care of Zhong Yuemin."

Xiao Ningwei didn't say anything, but now he interrupted and said, "I know, Brother Hua's parents are both martyrs, and he has a living allowance every month, but it seems to be gone after that."

Jiang Biyun was still very interested in Jiang Hua, so he asked: "Then why are he and Zhong Yuemin brothers?"

"After hearing that Brother Hua's parents died, Brother Yuemin's father took him to his home to raise him, because Uncle Zhong and Brother Hua's parents were comrades-in-arms."

Wang Hong frowned and said, "I seem to have heard the name Zhong Yuemin when I was in the capital. I heard that he is quite famous among the children in the compound."

"Brother Yuemin is as famous as Li Yuanchao and Zhang Haiyang, and they are recognized as influential figures."

Jiang Biyun asked: "Then Jianghua's, isn't he a man of the hour?"

"Brother Hua usually doesn't like to play around outside. I heard that he prefers to read books. He often reads and studies at home by himself, and rarely plays on the street. It is only in the past year that he has become famous among the veterans. It is said that it is because He took down the little bastard in one move."

Jiang Biyun's eyes were shining brightly, as if he was very interested in this man.

In the evening, the three of them finally came back, each with a big bag on their shoulders, which means they bought a lot of things.

Zhao Dayong, Cao Yang, and Qian Zhiming greeted them enthusiastically, unloaded the sacks from the shoulders of the three of them, weighed them, and said in surprise: "Hey, there are a lot of things, Huazi, you spent a lot of money."

Jiang Hua replied with a smile: "It's Chinese New Year, why don't you eat and drink, everyone is going out for the first time, and you feel wronged again, how disappointed you are."

Unexpectedly, after hearing this, the three people's eye circles were red at that time, and they were about to cry.

Zhong Yuemin pretended to be contemptuous and said: "Are you still a gentleman, dropping cat urine, in Northwest dialect, it is said to shame the ancestors."

Qian Zhiming said: "Zhong Yuemin, you don't understand. You are a child from a large courtyard. You don't know what we children from a large courtyard think. We don't have as much knowledge as you. We just hope to have a stable job. In the future, wives and children will be hot on the bed. You have such great ambitions."

Cao Yang also responded: "Yeah, if you hadn't been leading us around for the past six months, I'm afraid I've resigned myself to my fate and become numb. I'm also like those idlers in the village. When I have a chance, I will marry a mother-in-law and give birth to a baby."

Zheng Tong said happily: "That's pretty good, isn't it also the wife and children who are hot on the kang?"

Zhao Dayong said in a low voice, "Can it be the same? In the city, you can work in a factory. You can earn a salary and have enough food. In the countryside, you will be full of wild vegetables at the end of the year."

Jiang Hua patted them on the shoulder and said comfortingly: "It will be fine, everything will be fine, keep hopeful, optimistic and positive, everything will be fine."

Back in the cave, the three girls prepared hot water, three of them washed and wiped themselves, and the rest opened the sack, which was full of surprises.

Wang Hong exclaimed: "White noodles, fruit candies, and big white rabbits, these are rare things."

"Here is meat, vermicelli, cabbage, fungus, and a chicken."

Jiang Biyun also opened the bag in his hand: "Chicken cake, and wine, Jiang Hua, you spend too much money, we can't let you subsidize it all the time."

Jiang Hua said with a smile: "They are all brothers and sisters, don't talk about these."

At this time, the sky outside the cave dwelling was snowed like goose feathers, and Zheng Tong poked his head out to look at it and said, "Auspicious snow heralds a good year."

　Ask for a monthly ticket, ask for a reward.

　　Everyone says it's hard to say, I feel it
