The whole family saves on food and clothing, and subsidizes the elder brother Zhao Daqing.

In fact, the Chaoyang Brigade is a relatively wealthy production team, and Zhao Jiazhuang also has a lot of labor. The key is that the Zhao family, except for the uncle, is still very diligent.

They also raised some chickens at home, and the eggs they saved were never eaten, and they were all sold.

There are also two pigs in the family, and the three aunts and sisters are all responsible for fighting pigweed. Every year, the food saved by the family is added with some pigweed, which can actually be exchanged for a lot of money.

The point is, brothers Zhao Quan and Zhao Gui are both carpenters.

They are well-known carpenters within a radius of tens of miles. The two of them sometimes go to other people's homes to make furniture after part-time work.

If there is no work, they will work collectively to earn work points.

Of course, all these money and things are saved for Mrs. Mei.

Calculated in this way, their family can actually live better than the average family in the village.

But because Mrs. Mei is diligent and thrifty in managing the family, all the daughters-in-law are exhausted at home, and the son is also tired, but almost every meal is full of corn mush, and it is rare to have a full meal.

In the previous life, after Zhao Guoqing got married, they lived together and did not separate until a few years later.

Even so, my mother is still working as a cow and a horse at home.

Separate the family. Only by separating the family early can the mother be relieved, and the life will be easier, and she can eat white rice and meat from time to time.

The idea of ​​​​separating the family is getting stronger and stronger, but before that, you have to save money first, otherwise it will be useless without money after the separation.

Zhao Guoqing thought that his mother must not be full, so he quickly gave two fried dough sticks. When he got the fried dough sticks, Liu Zhenfang's hands were shaking and her eyes were moist.

My son has a stubborn temper, but he is also really kind to her!

This child is kind and stubborn, but why doesn't he want to marry Chen Furong?

Liu Zhenfang let out a long sigh. Who knew that another big event happened at home later in the afternoon.

Chapter 18 Do You Have That?

There wasn't much work on the team in the afternoon, so Zhao Guoqing thought about how to go off work early, bring the meat at home, bring his younger brothers and sisters, and go to Liu Zhiqing and the others to cook a meal!

I agreed that day, and today I will treat them to a meal of meat.

Zhao Guoqing was working with his head down, when someone called his name, but when he looked up, he saw Zhang Guoqing from the same village.

Yes, this Zhang Guoqing has the same name as him, but the surname is different.

Anyway, in every brigade, there are always a few people called Guoqing Weidong and the like, and if they shout casually, a large group of people agree, and everyone is no stranger to it.

This Zhang Guoqing is one year older than Zhao Guoqing, and his father is the branch secretary of the brigade. He played with Zhao Guoqing and grew up together, and the relationship between the two is pretty good.

"Zhao Guoqing, when will you eat your wedding candy? How did I hear that you and Chen Furong were blowing? Is it true?"

When Zhang Guoqing said this, his eyes flickered, and while talking about eating candy, he asked whether it was true or not?

Zhao Guoqing was a little strange and didn't think much about it.

"It's really blowing. I don't like the three turns and one sound and 32 six legs at home. The main reason is that the two can't get along. If you blow it, you blow it..."

Zhao Guoqing didn't say that Chen Furong was indiscreet, and that he didn't want to be a successor, he just said that they couldn't get along.

After all, there is no evidence for some things, and if I say more, it will make people think that I am a villain talking nonsense behind my back.

"Really, I heard that Chen Furong said last time that she didn't want the bride price, and married you with the household registration book? You are really, Chen Furong is actually pretty good, and she is the announcer of the commune, you boy made money……"

What Zhang Guoqing said was a little sour.

Zhao Guoqing felt a little strange.

Just a joke.

"I didn't say she was ugly, she really didn't get along..."

"Then, then you, do you have that, that?"

Zhang Guoqing glanced around, there were few people here, and there was no one else for the time being, only him and Zhao Guoqing, he asked a little nervously.

Although it is not as clear as it is said, men understand it.

"No, I haven't even held hands. If we are really that, then who am I?"

Zhao Guoqing kept shaking his head. They said they were talking about friends together, but they had never kissed, let alone did that.

This is also the reason why in his previous life, he never realized it, because he was an honest person and kept himself clean, thinking that everyone was just like him.

The child was born in the wrong month, and he didn't think much about it.

"Really?"

Zhang Guoqing asked Zhao Guoqing again uncertainly?

"Really, can you talk nonsense about this? If there is no, then there is no! If there is, then Chen Furong's mother can kill me with a knife, do you believe it or not?"

"I believe!"

Zhang Guoqing laughed, very relaxed and even patted him on the shoulder, calling him a good brother, which made Zhao Guoqing's heart skip a beat.

There is always a feeling that something is wrong. Could it be, does this Zhang Guoqing have any thoughts about Chen Furong?

However, he will never marry that Chen Furong in this life, and it is best for the two of them not to have any relationship anymore, and they don't want to see this person for the rest of their lives.

Zhao Guoqing didn't think much about it. After working casually, he took the meat and went to Liu Zhiqing's yard.

The educated youth spot used to be a few unoccupied courtyards in the village, which were repaired later, and five male educated youths lived in a large courtyard.

The female educated youth insisted on living in a small courtyard alone, so it was very convenient for two people to live in two small courtyards.

When Zhao Guoqing went, Liu Yuqing had just washed his face and changed into a white denim shirt, which he would not bear to wear normally, so he took it out specially today.

When Zhao Guoqing knocked on the door, she happily knocked on the door, and took a special look around, but no one noticed, so she quickly closed the door.

The sound of closing the door startled Zhao Guoqing.

"Liu Zhiqing, you are alone, where is Xia Zhiqing?"

"She went to the vegetable field and said she was digging some potatoes. Come on, sit down first, and I'll get you rice..."

Liu Yuqing was in a good mood at this time, and hurried to take out the bag of rice that had been put away.

For today's meal, she and Xia Ruolan went to the production team early to change rice.

This bag of rice weighed ten catties.

"My brother and sister have gone to catch fish, and they will be here in a while. I also brought rice and some fried dough sticks. Just use your pot. I can't take advantage of your family..."

The last time I ate with Liu Yuqing and the others, I didn't bring anything with me.

This time, he bought a few catties of pork and specially brought some rice, because after all, his younger siblings would come to eat, so he would get a lot of food.

We can't let the two educated youths suffer a lot from posting food.

"It's okay, it's okay, my family sent me food stamps again, I can't finish eating..."

Liu Yuqing glanced at Zhao Guoqing secretly, and smiled heartily, which reminded Zhao Guoqing that everyone in the village said that Liu Zhiqing's family was in the city, and the conditions were very good.

It was said that her father was the director of a textile factory.

My mother and brother both work, and the family conditions are good, so the conditions among the educated youth are relatively good. The family often sends parcels, and there is no shortage of money and food stamps.

While the two were talking, the door opened, and Xia Ruolan was holding a bamboo basket and a hoe in her hand, her hands and face were dirty.

She closed the door without hesitation, nodded to Zhao Guoqing, and was busy taking out the potatoes she had dug up today.

At this time, the potatoes are not that big, only the size of an egg, but Xia Ruolan dug a lot, she dug half a basket full, and there are quite a few sweet potato leaves on top of those potatoes!

This Xia Ruolan was careful, and picked a large pile of these sweet potato leaves, and planned to eat them as vegetables when the time came.

"Come on, you guys rest, I'll cook, just wait for dinner later..."

When Zhao Guoqing saw the little potato, he thought about using the potato to burn the meat.

Sweet potato leaves can be divided into stems and leaves, which can be fried in two dishes.

As for larger potatoes, you can fry a plate of hot and sour potato shreds, so that there are several dishes at once.

Thinking of doing it, Zhao Guoqing hurried to do it, and Liu Yuqing over there also rushed to help, Xia Ruolan looked at it and smiled, and hurried out of the kitchen to the yard.

While it was still dark, I just read a book, or I would light kerosene at night, which would hurt my eyes and be expensive.

The books that Xia Ruolan was reading were review materials for the college entrance examination that her family members had sent her. She wanted to take the college entrance examination, and she was reviewing it.

Zhao Guoqing cut up all the meat, divided the lean meat and fat meat, and added a little corn flour to the lean meat to stir the seasoning, and then prepared the fatter meat for roasting potatoes.

When the fatty meat was put into the pot and then fried, the oil was sizzling, and the smell burst into the nostrils, making Liu Yuqing, who was helping to wash the potatoes and set the fire, secrete saliva from his mouth.

It smells so good!

This meat has not eaten yet, it smells so delicious that it makes her greedy!

Wang Weidong and the others at the educated youth restaurant next door were also preparing to cook, and they also smelled the strange fragrance.

Chapter 19 The Happiest Thing

The fragrance seemed to come from Liu Zhiqing and the others.

Liu Zhiqing's family is well off. Her father is the director of the county textile factory, and her mother also works in the textile factory. She also has an older brother and older sister who are both working.

The family is richer, so Liu Zhiqing receives parcels every now and then, and she is famous for her good conditions.

At the beginning, many educated youths wanted to share with her, but she was willing to be with Xia Ruolan, who looked a bit thin, but Xia Ruolan was down-to-earth and willing to endure hardships.

It would be more comfortable for Liu Yuqing to live with her.

Every month, there is always a burst of fragrance from the house where they live. It is said that they eat white rice every meal.

The key is that Liu Zhiqing is also pretty and generous, and his family conditions are good.

Thinking of this, Wang Weidong's heart ached. He always wanted to go back to the city, but his family couldn't arrange a job for him.

If I get along with Liu Zhiqing, can I ask his father to arrange a job for me?

Thinking of this, Wang Weidong only felt a burst of heat in his heart.

But this meat smells even more delicious.

If he and Liu Zhiqing became friends, and her family eats meat, can he just go over with a bowl?

Zhao Guoqing, who was busy cooking over there, didn't even know that the smell of meat could make Wang Weidong think so much?

He just sighs.

Pigs in this era did not eat feed, just a little bit of pork, fried and fried, it smells delicious, and the whole kitchen smells like meat, it smells so good!

Zhao Guoqing saw a lot of oil frying in the pot, so he didn't want to use all of it to fry potatoes.

He saw a foreign porcelain jar beside the pot, and there was a little lard in it, so he quickly scooped up the excess lard in the pot with a spatula, and put it into the foreign porcelain jar.

"Oh, Zhao Guoqing, thank you so much..."

Liu Yuqing's eyes widened all of a sudden, his face was full of surprise.

This Zhao Guoqing man is really generous. He cooks meat dishes at their house and pours all the lard into their jars.

With these lards, I have eaten lard for half a month.

That's great!

Zhao Guoqing smiled and said nothing, but poured the washed potatoes into the pot and boiled them.

When the aroma only filled his nose, he found a crock pot to fill the stewed meat with potatoes, then put it near the stove door, and simmered it over a low fire.

There is also a bowl lid on top of the jar.

Next, Zhao Guoqing cut potato shreds, fried a hot and sour potato shreds with lean meat, and fried a sweet potato stick.

As for the sweet potato leaves, he also fried a large pot of lard.

"It smells so good..."

Now Zhao Youqing walked in with his two younger sisters and some cleaned fish and shrimp.

I was not very lucky today, I just caught a big bowl of river prawns, but fried with chili, it was also very delicious.

After cleaning the pot, Zhao Guoqing started cooking, and put all the rice he brought into the pot.

Over there, Xia Ruolan brought half a bag of rice and let them cook together, saying that there are too many people, so cook more.
