Rebirth 78, marry Qingmei as my wife

It's a pity that the cucumbers in the greenhouse haven't started to grow yet, otherwise this fried sauce would be perfect, but now I can only use radishes instead.

Fortunately, I have carrots and green radishes at home, which are not bad.

The kind of fried sauce in restaurants is too troublesome to make at home, so the fried sauce made by Liu Hongjun is very simple, just use yellow sauce, diced pork, diced mushrooms, add some chopped green onion, stir-fry, and wait until the diced pork and mushrooms are cooked.

Cut the green radish and carrot into shreds. After the noodles are ready, you can use them as toppings and put them inside.

Soon, a pot of hand-rolled noodles was ready, put into a basin and carried to the back room.

Fried sauce and shredded green carrots were also placed on the plate and brought into the room.

He served Yang Qiuyan a large bowl of noodles, and Liu Hongjun took the rest. He didn't bother to put it into the bowl anymore and ate it directly from the big basin.

Although the noodles looked dark and unsightly, Liu Hongjun ate them very well.

It feels a bit like eating multigrain noodles in later generations.

The flour was given by my father-in-law. I went to my father-in-law’s house today to pay New Year greetings. Yang Qiuyan said that all the flour at home was used to make steamed buns. My father-in-law immediately brought me a bag of flour.

However, my father-in-law’s flour is not as generous as Liu Hongjun’s previous flour grinding, and he has to grind it two or three times.

Although my father-in-law is the captain of the production team, the flour at home is almost all whole wheat flour.

The so-called whole wheat flour is flour that has not had the bran removed.

When wheat is ground into flour, two products are produced, one is bran and the other is flour.

The flour grinding mills used in this era, whether stone or steel, cannot separate the flour and bran at one time, but require two or three times to separate them.

My father-in-law’s flour is whole wheat flour without the bran removed.

It tastes very thick and the texture is naturally not very good.

However, Liu Hongjun enjoyed the meal very much.

After eating, wash up and go to bed...

The next day is the third day of the Lunar New Year.

After Liu Hongjun finished his meal early in the morning, he went out to visit the homes of Secretary Dong, Su Youcai and other brigade cadres to pay New Year greetings.

Then I go to the homes of people with whom I have good relationships in the village and visit to pay New Year greetings.

On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Qian Shengli, Dashan, and Shitou came to Liu Hongjun's house. They had agreed to get together today.

Wang Yuejin and other six or seven educated youths who had not returned home also came to Liu Hongjun's house.

Everyone worked together, cooked a large table of sumptuous meals, ate and drank, and continued to be noisy until about two o'clock in the afternoon, when they left.

Time passed quickly, and the first month of the new year passed in a blink of an eye.

The Gregorian calendar has also reached the end of February 79.

Entering March, the temperature in the Northeast also begins to gradually warm up.

Although it is getting warmer, the temperature is still below zero, but it is no longer like it was a few years ago, when it was always around minus 30 degrees.

The current temperature is about ten degrees below zero.

Various productions within the pass have begun to resume, but the cat winter in the Northeast is not over yet, nor is the winter cutting in forest farms.

The final winter expedition is being carried out nervously.

Once the temperature rises and the snow in the mountains thaws, the winter cutting will come to an end.

In summer and autumn, under normal circumstances, forest farms are used to develop and build new forest railways.

Of course, the old forest railway will not be idle. The trees harvested in winter and spring need to be transported down the mountain.

During this period, Liu Hongjun was not idle. He found pen and paper and started planning his own villa based on his limited architectural knowledge.

It's just that the house in other people's villa is built on the mountain, but in his villa, the house is built at the foot of the mountain.

However, it does not prevent him from making his villa better and more comfortable.

There is a courtyard with one entrance at the foot of the mountain. A formal Beijing courtyard has three main rooms, or three main rooms plus east and west wing rooms.

Liu Hongjun simply has five main rooms plus east and west wing rooms, plus east and west side rooms, and five reverse rooms.

It is much wider than the orthodox courtyard house, but not much, that is, the width of two courtyard houses.

However, the depth of the courtyard has been deepened, so it doesn't look out of place.

In the back mountain, Liu Hongjun planned to plant a thorn wall with thorns to encircle the entire back mountain.

Liu Hongjun and Yang Qiuyan discussed how to build their own houses and how to decorate their homes.

However, most of these so-called discussions involve Liu Hongjun telling Yang Qiuyan how to build his home, and Yang Qiuyan plays the role of a good listener and admiration.

The first lunar month has just come out, and Liu Hongjun is studying his villa.

Wang Yuejin came to Liu Hongjun's house alone, which surprised Liu Hongjun.

These educated youths often come to his place to play, but there are only three or five of them. They even come together all together, like Wang Yuejin who came alone, which is really rare.

"Old Wang, why are you free to come here today? Why don't you go on a date with your sister Xiaofang?" Liu Hongjun teased with a smile.

"Red Army, I came to see you for something." Wang Yuejin blushed, but then said seriously.

"What's the matter?" Liu Hongjun saw that Wang Yuejin was so serious and stopped teasing him.

"Um...I want...I want to...borrow some money from you." Wang Yuejin hesitated for a while, then hesitantly stated his request.

"Borrow money? How much?" Liu Hongjun looked at Wang Yuejin in surprise.

"I plan to build a house in the village after spring so that I can marry Xiaofang." Wang Yuejin did not say how much he would borrow, but the purpose of borrowing the money.

Liu Hongjun nodded. He knew that Wang Yuejin wanted to build a house and marry Xiaofang.

I said it years ago.

Regarding Wang Yuejin's willingness to give up the opportunity to return to the city and stay in the village, Liu Hongjun still admired him.

What I admire even more is Wang Yuejin's character. He did not abandon his wife and children in later generations, but took his wife and children with him into the city.

"I have many brothers and sisters in my family, and they can't afford much money to support me. I don't want to ask my family for money anymore," Wang Yuejin continued.

"Well! You guys are very capable, so what's the point of relying on your family?" Liu Hongjun praised.

"Red Army, I want to borrow five hundred yuan from you, but it may take two or three years to pay you back." Wang Yuejin smiled bitterly and said.

"That's it! No problem. Five hundred yuan, is it enough?"

"Enough, enough!

To build three houses, five hundred yuan is not enough. Wang Yuejin said with a smile.

"Don't you want to build a bigger house?

Getting married is not just about owning a house. Why not buy some belongings and prepare some betrothal gifts? Liu Hongjun laughed.

"I know this, isn't spring starting soon?

After spring starts in our Gada, I can go to the mountainous areas to catch mountains, and I can earn a few hundred yuan, which will be enough for wedding furniture, bedding, and betrothal gifts.

As for the house, Xiaofang and I have agreed to build three rooms first, and when we have the money, we can slowly expand it. Wang Yuejin said with a confident smile.
