Traveling through books in the 70s: The group favors the Wang family’s little koi carp

"Cousin, cousin..." Shen Xiaobao carefully picked up the door frame.

Shen Jin ignored him.

Shen Xiaobao pursed his lips, not daring to roll around on the ground if he felt a little unhappy like before. Knowing that he was not popular, he turned back to the west room three times at a time.

Hu Dongju in the West House was sitting on the kang sewing clothes. When she saw her precious son coming back, she ignored him.

Shen Xiaobao felt even more aggrieved: "Mom, I want to eat the food from my fourth uncle's house. I smelled it just now. It's so delicious."

"The incense is not yours either." Hu Dongju kept moving her hands, "Go find your father."

Shen Xiaobao was unwilling to give in: "Mom, our family helped my fourth uncle last time. What can I do if my fourth uncle gives me a bowl of rice?"

His head was suddenly hit by a ball of thread thrown by Hu Dongju. Although it didn't hurt, it was extremely insulting.

"Then go and beg your fourth uncle, it's a shame."

"mother!"

Hu Dongju sighed: "Xiaobao, it's not that mother doesn't want you to eat well, it's that our family doesn't have the conditions. Your fourth uncle's family has the conditions, but our two families are not close."

Shen Xiaobao wanted to say something more, but Hu Dongju raised her hand to interrupt him.

"Are you trying to say that our family helped your fourth uncle the day we elected the vice-captain last time?"

Shen Xiaobao nodded. From then on, Shen Youcang and Shen Youfu bullied him whenever they saw him, and said that his father was now his fourth uncle's lackey.

The third bedroom was directly isolated by the other two bedrooms. Even old Shen, who loved Shen Xiaobao the most, now looked at Shen Xiaobao with a calm attitude. Once he saw Shen Xiaobao being beaten by Shen Youfu, he was stunned and seemed not to notice.

Shen Xiaobao wanted to cry just thinking about it.

How come the days are getting more and more difficult as time goes by?

"Mom, we obviously helped our fourth uncle, but his fourth uncle still doesn't want to be close to us, and now the eldest uncle and the second uncle don't care about us either..."

Hu Dongju had no choice but to say: "Xiaobao, you're old now, and it's time to understand the ways of the world. You're so stupid. How many times have our family offended your fourth uncle's family before? Including how many times you offended your cousin Jin?"

Shen Xiaobao didn't say anything. He had an old nose and couldn't count.

"Isn't that right? You have offended others so many times. Do you think that with one good deed, you can erase all the bad things in the past? Nothing in the world is so cheap."

Hu Dongju has always been a person who can assess the situation. In the past, Old Shen made the decision in the Shen family. She was happy to let Old Shen spoil her son. Anyway, it would not be in the interests of her son.

But the situation is different now. Seeing that Si Fang is getting up, if she doesn't explain the truth to this stupid boy clearly, the relationship that Mikawa finally eased may be blocked by this stupid boy again.

"Xiaobao, listen to my mother, don't worry about what's happening in front of you, don't worry about a mouthful of food, and don't be greedy for a little benefit. If someone doesn't give it to you, you will make trouble. Why are you so short-sighted?"

Shen Xiaobao was dissatisfied: "But my life now is not as good as before!"

Suddenly, my head was hit by a rag again.

He was raised by Old Man Shen so that he could not use his brain. Hu Dongju could only break the truth into pieces and tell him: "If you want to live badly for a while, you should live badly for the rest of your life."

If there were only these two options, Shen Xiaobao would certainly choose to have a bad life.

Staring at Shen Xiaobao, as if she could see through what he was thinking, Hu Dongju nodded: "So, seeing that the fourth house is getting better and better, there is nothing wrong with easing the relationship with them. At most, you will not be able to live well for a while."

"In the future, the fourth house will get better and better, and after the relationship between our two families has completely improved, you will have something to rely on in the future. I will only tell you this. Whether you understand it or not, don't mess with the fourth house by showing off your temper. 's baby."

Shen Xiaobao rubbed his toes on the ground: "Mom, why can't you get along with Brother Youcang and the others? It hurts when they hit someone."

Why do you say?

Hu Dongju felt tired: "Do you want to burn a boiler in the future?"

"I don't want to!" Shen Xiaobao was so frightened that he took a step back. He had seen what his second uncle looked like after he came back from a busy day. There was black mud between his fingernails, and he looked deader than ever before.

"Isn't that enough? Your second uncle jumped up and down and made a big fuss and ended up like this. He also has several sons. You won't be able to get the job of burning boilers in the future if you want. There's no benefit at all. Your father hasn't been raped yet. Well, why are you still messing with them?"

"If you alienate them now, it's a good deal for Sifang. They'll beat you up for a while at most. When you borrow money from Sifang in the future, they will be envious of you for the rest of their lives."

For a moment, Shen Xiaobao's brain seemed to have been cleaned by his mother, making it much clearer.

"Mom, I understand."

He turned around and wanted to run out, but stopped mid-run, turned around, and asked coyly: "Mom... when will I be able to eat from my fourth uncle's house... eh!"

This time, the thread bucket hit her head, but it hurt more than before. Hu Dongju was angry: "Get out! Get out of here!"

When, she also wants to know when, then he must let his father behave well. He is happy when he offends others, and now he has to go back to make up for it. How can he make up for it in a day or two?

Shen Sanhe stood outside the door and made a 'shh' gesture to his son who ran out.

The father and son slowly moved away from the 'explosion site'. Shen Xiaobao rubbed his arms: "Dad, Mom was so angry just now. It was scary."

"That's why your father and I don't dare to enter the house." Shen Sanhe was very proud, "Let's stop hitting the gun. Let's go and take you to eat delicious food. Aren't you greedy?"

"What are you going to eat?" Shen Xiaobao was extremely excited.

My stomach is already drumming.

What to eat... Shen Sanhe actually didn't know what to do, but his son was greedy for four-bedroom meals. Such greed really made him look pitiful as a father. Anyway, one step at a time.

"Dad will take you to catch sparrows, and we will roast them and eat them."

The smile on Shen Xiaobao's face suddenly froze. His father was still catching sparrows?

As the father and son walked along, Shen Xiaobao listened to Shen Sanhe playing, saying that when he was a child, he was better at playing sparrows than the boys in the village. While he was playing, Shen Xiaobao had good eyesight and saw someone from a distance.

He tugged on Shen Sanhe's sleeve.

"What's wrong?"

"Dad, look, does that old lady over there look like my uncle's mother?"

"The old lady of the Zhu family? She shouldn't be. Why did she come to our village at this time..."

……

"Time to eat!"

The simple claypot rice cooked in the big pot was served by Shen Yousheng and Shen Youwu together.

"Hey, what is this? Put it in such a big pot?"

Shen Yousheng pointed at Shen Jin: "Xiao Jin'er said that it should be beautiful, so he put it on a plate when it was served... No, this has already been put into the basin. It has to be said that it was put on the basin."

"Go, go, you're the only one with a poor mouth, open the lid quickly, I can smell the fragrance." Shen Jiang said, without anyone else having to do anything, he raised his hand and directly took off the wooden lid on the basin...

The grains of crystal-clear rice are slightly yellowed with a burnt aroma. The sausages are cut into slices and placed on top of the rice. As the rice cooks, the soul of the cured meat is gradually revived.

The unique aroma and fat of the sausage are simmered into the rice, paired with green vegetables, and the sauce that is poured in when the rice is halfway done. All the essence is absorbed into the rice.

Under the light, the rice seemed to be baked into a shiny and attractive glaze.
