Accidentally born in the ’60s

Zhang Chunhua is a very careful person, but she doesn't have much ability. To put it bluntly, she is bullying the soft and afraid of the hard, so Mrs. Li just waved her crutches and slapped her eyes twice, and Zhang Chunhua immediately persuaded. It would be fine if she was honest from now on, but she is not a person with a long memory. She didn't dare to provoke Mrs. Li and bullied her granddaughter-in-law. Her elders did not praise her, how could such a person be a cowardly woman, so Zhang Chunhua said a few words and was quickly slapped back by Osmanthus. Zhang Chunhua saw that none of the Li family were vegetarians from old to young, and even Li Mulin didn't stand by her side, which was a complete stop.

On the 30th day of the Chinese New Year, Mrs. Li got up early in the morning and instructed her son and grandson to paste pendants and gourds on the door, and paste the couplets and blessings on the gate. Mrs. Li hid most of it I also took out the pork that was a month old, and killed the rooster that had been raised at home for a year. I chopped up the seven or eight large bones that I went to the ravine a few days ago and cut them into pieces with an axe and melted them in the water. Stew sauerkraut.

Liu Xiulan and Osmanthus were busy in the kitchen, the men were sweeping snow and chopping firewood in the yard, Zhang Chunhua was kicked out by Osmanthus as soon as he entered the kitchen, Mrs. Li knew that the two were not Knowing when the corner of his mouth was made, he asked Zhang Chunhua to go back to the house and stay there, not expecting her to be of any help.

Mr. Li instructed Zhang Chunhua to put four plates on the kang table. She took out the key hanging from her waist, put a plate of peanuts and melon seeds, and fried pine nuts and hazelnuts picked up from the mountains in autumn Good also served two plates, and also grabbed a handful of candy and gave it to a few grandchildren, asking them to eat in their pockets.

So not uncommon. They ran around outside and asked Li Mulin for twenty or so firecrackers. When they came back, they dragged Ming Shu and Ming Xin to set off firecrackers together.

, Mingxin got anxious when he saw it, and got off the kang when he stood up: "Brother, wait for me, I'm going too." Mingshu looked out anxiously, and then turned back to remind Mingxin: "Then you hurry up and put on your shoes."

Zhang Chunhua saw that his two sons were going to run out, he hugged Mingxin, coaxed him and said, "My son, it's cold outside, it's so good for you and your mother to eat at home, look at these pine nuts. Fried and delicious."

In the past two days, Mingxin's stomach has been round, and he is not so eager to eat. At this time, he is more concerned about going out to set off firecrackers. He struggled twice from Zhang Chunhua's arms, and almost burst into tears: "Mom, let me go, I want to go out to play."

Old Mrs. Li was holding a bunch of gourd to play with Zhen Zhen, listening to Ming Xin crying and making trouble, she couldn't help saying: "Tell him to go, who doesn't celebrate the new year? Tell the children to go out to play, Mingrong and Mingguang from your third sister-in-law are also outside."

Zhang Chunhua let go of his hand embarrassedly, and looked at the pine nuts and hazelnuts on the table, worried that someone would eat them all, so he went to the kitchen to ask for a small bowl, while Mrs. Li stared stunned Peel off half the bowl of nuts.

As soon as Zhang Chunhua raised his head and looked at Mrs. Li's eyes, he felt a little uncomfortable, and quickly defended: "These things have to be bought in Bingcheng, I read Mingshu and Mingxin very much. Yes, peel it off first and keep it for them to eat."

Ms. Li really couldn't figure out how the Zhang family raised Zhang Chunhua to be so petty. It stands to reason that with Zhang's father's salary, their family of three should be better than others. However, the daughter-in-law has come back for so many years, and Mrs. Li is not the kind of stingy person. She glanced at Zhang Chunhua and said, "Our mountain is full of red pine, and there are pine towers everywhere. If the child likes to eat it, I will give it to you when I get home. Take some back."

Zhang Chunhua must be happy, grinning and saying, "Our place is so nice, there's nowhere to buy it if you have money outside."

When Zhang Chunhua entered the door, Mr. Li could easily hear a decent sentence and couldn't help laughing: "Take an empty plate and let your second sister-in-law fill it up, and there will be some neighbors who love to visit in a while. , what does it look like with an empty plate."

The pine nuts of this era are genuine wild pine nuts, not to mention the great taste, stir fry them in a large iron pan and add sand, just smelling the smell will make your mouth water.

Seeing Zhen Zhen's eyes staring straight at the nuts, Mrs. Li couldn't help laughing: "Yo, our little girl will smell the smell, this can't be eaten by you, You are still young. When you pick up the pine cones and hazelnuts in the fall of next year, will they give us Zhen Zhen to eat?"

Zhen Zhen swallowed her saliva, tried her best to put her chubby little hands on her face, and wiped the saliva from the corners of her mouth. Wang Sufen took the cotton saliva towel and wiped Zhen Zhen's mouth and hands while laughing, leaning back and forth and saying to Mrs. Li, "Mother, look at Zhen Zhen, the little child in the confinement still knows how clean it is, give it to yourself. Wipe yourself."

Mr. Li smiled and hung the gourd on Zhen Zhen's hand, and said happily: "Zhen Zhen is smart and strong, and when she grows up, she can feed wild boars with milk." She looked again. Looking at Wang Sufen, she looked very satisfied: "Your milk is good this time. It seems that the chicken soup and fish soup are not in vain. I will call Mingnan and Mingbei to retrieve the fish later."

Wang Sufen couldn't help but said: "This year, the Yongcui River is really strange. In the past summer, the fish was easy to catch, and in winter, most of the time, the fish came back empty-handed, but this year, the fish was not caught in the summer. How much, in winter, you can catch two every few days."

Mr. Li touched Zhen Zhen's pink and tender smiling face, and said casually: "This is the ration God gave us Zhen Zhen."

Firecrackers are stuffed under a shelf made of ice, to see who can play with flowers.

The firecrackers were placed all the way to the Yongcui River. The children of each family took out the sledges and lined up a row of competitions. Whoever loses will take out the firecrackers for everyone to set off. Ming Bei, Ming Nan, and Ming Rong slid quickly with two wooden sticks with nails, Ming Guang followed behind with Ming Shu and Ming Xin, shouting cheers.

When I got home from a crazy morning, there was a delicious meal. Mingxin couldn't help but sigh while washing his face: "The milk house is much more interesting than my house." Zhang Chunhua looked back and saw that no one was paying attention Here, I whispered to my son: "Our family is better than the nanny family. If the nanny family is better, I will keep you here and not take you back to Bingcheng."

After all, Mingxin is a four or five year old child. He wilted as soon as he heard it. In the afternoon, he didn't dare to go out with his brothers, and honestly followed his mother to sleep on the hot kang.

In the evening, Liu Xiulan and Osmanthus got busy early, stewed sauerkraut with big bones, stewed chicken with mushrooms, and stewed carp with tofu, Mingxin sat up from the kang when he smelled the fragrance, and when he turned around, it was just right Seeing that Mrs. Li was leading Wang Sufen and Zhang Chunhua to make dumplings, the white and fat dumplings were placed on the curtain, Mingxin's saliva suddenly stayed: "Mom, I still think that my family is much better than ours. No, you can leave me here, I feel pretty good here."

Zhang Chunhua's face turned red immediately, Wang Sufen rolled out the dumpling wrappers and smiled at Mingxin: "That's a good feeling, the second aunt will put her arms around you and sleep."

Mingxin couldn't understand Zhang Chunhua's complex face, and he climbed into the middle of the kang with a smile, pushed the scooter, and asked Wang Sufen innocently: "Do you share a room with Sister Zhen Zhen?"

Wang Sufen suppressed a smile and said solemnly, "Yeah, sister Zhen Zhen is young, so she has to sleep with the second aunt."

"That's fine!" Mingxin nodded seriously: "Then I'll live here."

Mr. Li and Wang Sufen burst into laughter. Although Zhang Chunhua knew that Wang Sufen and Ming Xin were joking, she felt a little uncomfortable. But at this time, no one noticed her discomfort. From time to time, there was a sound of firecrackers outside. The whole family gathered in the Westinghouse to talk and do things at home. From time to time, bursts of joyful laughter could be heard.

Seeing that the dishes were ready, the three Li Muwu brothers brought in a large round table that was only used once a year and set it up.

Li Muwu took out the wine he had been reluctant to drink, poured a cup for his mother and two younger brothers, and everyone took a sip after clinking the glasses, and then the chopsticks flew all over the bones in the dish Go with the fat slices.

After the 30th of the new year, the days passed by very fast, and it was time for Li Mulin to return to the ice city. Before leaving, Li Mulin put the money he had saved and the money given by Mrs. Li together, and took out 50 catties of national food stamps and gave them to Mrs. Li together: "Mother, this is the money for honoring you in these ten years, I will send money and food stamps back every month from now on.”

Ms. Li took the things, and led her son to the kitchen, took half a bag of cornmeal, and a roe deer leg that had been frozen for two months and handed it to Li Mulin: "These are your two Brother and second sister-in-law prepared it for you, and you have a hard time. We can grow some land at home, and we can also pick some mushrooms, fungus, wild vegetables, and pheasant and hares from the mountains. It's better than you."

Li Mulin looked at things and couldn't help crying: "Nowadays, it's tough, mother just keeps it. Our family has a small population, and we can make do with enough to eat."

"I don't care what you two adults eat. Mingshu and Mingxin are good children. I feel bad for starving them." Mrs. Li took a puff of cigarettes and was silent for a moment. He waved his hand: "Hurry up and don't miss the car."

Li Mulin wiped away his tears, and was about to say a few words of goodbye to his mother, when a heart-piercing cry suddenly made Li Mulin forget everything he wanted to say.

"I won't leave, I won't leave, baby, come and save me!" Mingxin watched his parents pack up and was about to go out, and then he reacted, and he cried out immediately. Crying: "Nice family is good, I like milk, I don't want to go home."

Zhang Chunhua sweated anxiously, coaxing him while putting on clothes: "Don't cry, we'll come back next time."

"You said the day before yesterday that the milk house is not as good as ours, and you won't come back next time." Mingxin didn't believe his mother, and while crying, he learned every word of what Zhang Chunhua said. .

Zhang Chunhua glanced out of the corner of the eye to see Mrs. Li, who was standing on the side with a smoking bag, and she couldn't help sweating. The child and the Li family are getting closer and closer. Zhang Chunhua couldn't help being jealous, so he whispered to his son the other day.

"Don't talk nonsense, if you don't obey me, I won't bring you next time." Zhang Chunhua finally put his son's clothes on, dragged him halfway to Mrs. Li, and smiled: "Mother , then let's go, and we'll come back when Mulin is on leave."

Mr. Li didn't lift her eyelids, she just touched her little grandson's head, and said with a pleasant smile: "When I come back in autumn, the mountains are full of good things, and then I will let you eat enough milk. !"

One sentence, Mingxin's tears stopped, he wiped the tears on his face, raised his face and showed an innocent smile: "I like milk!"

The Li Mulin family was sent away, and the Li family resumed their old life. In a blink of an eye, the ice and snow dissipated, the river melted, and the weather gradually became hot. When it came, Zhen Zhen sat up.
