Reborn Soul: Me and My Family

The shy ones turned around and left without even saying hello, leaving only Ding Zhijian and the three new male educated youth.

Ding Zhijian picked up the meat on the chopping board and said in a low voice, "Thank you, Uncle Tieniu."

Lu Guoqing and a few others also shouted, said hello to several village cadres, and followed behind.

"Dayong~ These new educated youth seem to be pretty good now, but I don't know if they will become like those people in the future."

Fan Dayong looked at the people walking away and whispered, "The few people who came this time are usually very well-behaved. I hope they will always be like this in the future!"

The sound was so quiet that Fan Tieniu didn't hear it. He lowered his head to tidy up the chopping board. It was called a chopping board, but in fact it was the door panel of the village brigade headquarters.

The pork was only used when the annual pig was slaughtered. The remaining pork was used to buy food, except for the reward given to Fan Tieniu for slaughtering the pig.

There wasn't much left, and Fan Dayong was thinking about his third son coming back for the New Year, so he ate up the remaining ribs and meat.

When I left home today, my wife told me to buy more meat to take home so that my son can have a good meal during the Chinese New Year.

After the meat was distributed, everyone returned to their homes. At this time, the smell of meat wafted through every household in the village.

None of the children came out to play, they were all waiting at home to eat meat. Although pork was distributed, most families were reluctant to eat it.

They would cut off a small piece and freeze the rest. Unmarried girls would save it for eating on New Year's Eve.

Families with daughters would save the meat for the first day of the new year. The educated youth only cut half a pound of the three pounds of meat into a pot of cabbage stew.

The rest was saved for New Year's Eve. Less than half a pound of meat was used to stew half a pot of cabbage. Several people looked at the meat they bought.

I thought of the amount of meat that the new educated youth had bought, and I felt deeply moved. I looked at them and then at myself.

Sometimes it is really true that comparison makes one angry. Ouyang Qing and the other two were washing pig stomachs by the well. Although it was their first time,

This method of washing pig stomach was first used by Ouyang Qing and her sister. Before going to the countryside, they saw Li Dachun and Zhou Guilan washing it this way.

First, clean the dirt inside the pig's stomach, then turn the pig's stomach over and remove all the small lumps inside.

Finally, rub it with flour several times and then wash it. Look at the clean pig stomach.

Ouyang Qing swallowed his saliva, "Sister Yanyan, Xiaoqing, let's freeze the pig's stomach first. I will ride my bicycle to the commune tomorrow.

See if I can buy two chickens and then wrap them in pig stomach. Is there anything else you need to bring? I will buy them all when the time comes."

After hearing what she said, Ouyang Yan put the washed pig stomachs in the backyard, while Xiang Xiaoqing simply cleaned the yard that had just been dirty.

"Qingqing, you should bring me some mung beans and red beans to make cakes. I will make more for the New Year.

You can also give it as a New Year gift. I have walnuts at home, but not many red dates and sugar. I still have a few sugar coupons.

I'll get it for you later. If you see glutinous rice flour this time, buy some and bring it back. It would be even better if there is osmanthus sugar. Then I can make osmanthus cake for you."

Ouyang Qing nodded to show that he understood, and the two looked at Ouyang Yan again, "Qingqing, you have a lot of things to bring this time, why don't we take a bullock cart."

"No, Sister Yanyan, I can ride my bicycle very fast now. I feel uncomfortable riding a bullock cart.

Don't worry, I can go back and forth quickly by myself, so it won't take too long."

Ouyang Yan knew that it was useless to stop him, so she could only agree.

"Okay then! You can buy some flour and rice from home, and we can go buy the rest separately in a few days by oxcart.

It’s cold now and it’s hard to ride a bike. If the weather is good, I wouldn’t say this. Just be careful on the road.”

After saying that, he turned around and went back to his room, took out some money and several bills, and put them in Ouyang Qing's hands.

"You decide for yourself. The milk powder you bought last time is pretty good. Bring me two more cans. I've run out of the powder for my face and hands.

Bring me as much as you can. If it’s not enough, I’ll come back and give it to you.”

"Qingqing~ If Sister Yanyan hadn't reminded me, I would have almost forgotten. Please bring some for me. The weather has been dry recently, so I've been using a lot of vanishing cream.

Mine is almost gone, please remember to bring me some milk powder. I feel my skin has improved recently.”

It turned out that last time Ouyang Qing rode his bicycle to the commune to buy things, he brought back two cans of milk powder for each of them from the space.

They said they bought it through a channel and didn't need receipts, and told them not to tell anyone and drink a glass of milk before going to bed every day.

It helps with sleep and makes the skin better. After drinking it, I will bring it back for them next time. Now the two of them can be said to trust Ouyang Qing 100%.

Because she could buy a lot of things that they couldn't buy, and they were not naive, so they naturally knew where she went.

Although they were worried, Ouyang Qing assured them again and again that she was going directly to someone else's house to trade and it was very safe, so they were finally able to fool them.

She wrote a letter home, and her parents replied that there had been no news from her eldest brother recently. Ouyang Qing knew that her eldest brother must have been on a mission.

Zhou Guilan wrote in the letter that she had already written to ask Ouyang Bo to stay here with her for the New Year this year, and wait until next year's New Year.

If they can apply for a family visit, let them go back together, so that they can know in advance that their eldest brother will come here to celebrate the New Year.

Ouyang Qing planned to stock up on some food for the New Year before her brother came, because her eldest brother was not as easy to fool as her second and youngest brothers.

At this time, on the road leading to J City, nearly 20 military vehicles were driving forward in an orderly manner.

Leading and trailing were several military jeeps, and since they were all military vehicles, the journey was exceptionally smooth.

The things in the car were valuable, so they drove straight to J City without stopping on the way, just like when they came.

When they were about to enter J City, Minister Wang Wenzhi of the Ministry of Finance came over in person to lead the way and led the convoy directly to an underground warehouse of the Ministry of Finance Management.

By the time the major families in J City got the news, the items had already been put into storage.

Even if someone wants to interfere, it will be of no avail. They can only blame themselves for getting the news too late.

After the items were counted and put into storage, the six old comrades who had followed along were taken away by a special person and properly settled.

As soon as the items were put into storage, Minister Wang called the old chief's office directly. At this time, in the office of the J Department Building,

"Okay, okay~ This time we must reward our heroes. If it weren't for their selfless dedication,

There can't possibly be so many good things. Wenzhi, you should settle the people first. We old guys want to personally thank the young warriors."

"Okay, I will definitely convey your message, old commander."

The mission of this trip has been successfully completed. Gu Yueze and his companions were discussing going out to do some private business later. At this time, Wang Wenzhi came over.

"Captain Long, I'll take you to rest first. You may have to wait a day before leaving. The old commander specifically asked to meet a few heroes.

We will send someone to pick you up once the arrangements are made. Comrade Bai Jingyao, if he hadn't taken the risk alone,

It is impossible for us to dig out so many TW molecules hidden within us at once.

The old leader said he wanted to thank you personally."
