Wearing sixty with a male god

It was already mid-afternoon when Xu Hengzhou and Xiang Chen returned to the farm, they found a place to stop on the way, and ate something to fill their stomachs.

There are hot food and hot water in Xu Hengzhou's space. The broken glass of the driver's cab is tightly bound with a transparent plastic sheet. Although it is not as strong as the glass and looks ugly, it is still good enough to block the wind.

The two ate and drank in the cab. Except for the noisy duet of ewes and lambs at the back, everything else was very comfortable.

When he was about to reach the farm, Xu Hengzhou stopped the car, went to the rear compartment to put out the things he bought, besides that, he also put a big bag, pretending that he picked it up from the post office.

It was originally filled with rice, flour, cloth and cotton, which were all practical things, because the quality of rice noodles bought at a supply and marketing cooperative was too different from what he brought, so Xu Hengzhou put away all the rice and kept a little flour, anyway, the flour was originally It is sold in grades.

The empty space is filled with cotton. They are in short supply. Whether it is making quilts or cotton-padded clothes and shoes, cotton is needed.In the future, if there is a flock of sheep, the wool can be sheared and rubbed to make wool products, but now, cotton is still in short supply.

Song Wenbin has been worried all day. Ever since they left, he has been worrying about this and that. Sometimes he is afraid that the car will break down again on the road, and sometimes he is afraid that they will get lost. Zhong Ping started to worry about it.

At noon, no one was seen, Song Wenbin became even more anxious, and ran to the gate several times, scaring the old grandson away from his drowsiness.He didn't go to work in the afternoon, and stayed at the door the whole time, waiting for Xu Hengzhou and Xiang Chen to come back.

After finally waiting for someone, Song Wenbin was relieved when he saw the dilapidated army card bumping towards him from a distance.

The car stopped, and before Song Wenbin could speak, the ewe in the carriage let out a long "baa", forcing Song Wenbin's voice back.

"Have you bought sheep yet?" Old Sun went around to the back of the car in surprise, and looked at the two sheep, one big and one small, in amazement.

The ewe must have been terribly frightened, even the car stopped and kept bleating, shyly hiding behind a large pile of supplies that Xu Hengzhou bought.The lamb ran on its short legs and stuck to the ewe, rolling in the carriage like a ball.

Song Wenbin also went around to the back of the car, looking at the two sheep in a daze, Xiang Chen jumped out of the car, walked to Song Wenbin, pointed at the lamb and said triumphantly: "Uncle, the one I chose, let's see if it's fat or not!" .”

Song Wenbin laughed, glanced at Xiang Chen, then at the round-tailed little lamb with its butt facing them, and said solemnly: "Fat, very fat, Chenchen has really good eyesight."

Xiang Chen laughed twice, Song Wenbin looked at the sheep, and then his eyes fell on the supplies brought back by Xu Hengzhou: "So many things?"

"There's also something for Grandpa Li and the others." Xu Hengzhou said, "I went to a market on the way back. This sheep was bought at the market, and there's also meat. How about the meat? It's fresh!"

Song Wenbin muttered a few words: "How much money did you spend, your pockets are empty." After saying that, he asked the old grandson to call for someone. He couldn't carry so many things back by himself.

"Don't." Xu Hengzhou stopped the old grandson, "I'll just drive the car in, and drive directly to the door of the house, no need to bother."

"Look at how stupid I am." Song Wenbin also realized that Master Huang used to help them transport supplies, and he always stopped at the gate and asked them to call someone to come and move them, so he forgot that this car belonged to them. Drive wherever you want.

As soon as the car started to run, the ewes that had just calmed down began to bleat again. The sound was very long, and there was a little vibrato, which spread melodiously.

"Why do I seem to hear the cry of a sheep?" Deng Li put down his hoe and stroked his chin.

"Brother Deng wants to eat mutton." He Yuanfeng said with a smile.

"No, it's the most delicious to eat some mutton soup in winter." Deng Li said.

Just as He Yuanfeng wanted to make a joke, Gu Yunzhi gave him a light kick: "Work."

These lands are their tasks, and if they do more, others can do less.Gu Yunzhi and He Yuanfeng are younger and have always done heavy work.

He Yuanfeng glanced at Gu Yunzhi, who was waving a hoe vigorously beside him. This man was already thin, but now he was almost out of shape. His chin was a little pointed, which made him feel very uncomfortable, and he didn't know what those two boys were doing. When I come back, can I buy rice?

"I seem to have heard it too." Mr. Jiang suddenly said, "There is indeed a sheep bleating."

Several people looked at each other in blank dismay, let alone sheep, they didn't even have a chicken, where did the sheep come from?

At this moment, Old Sun limped over and shouted at them from a distance: "Comrade Xu is back, he has brought a lot of things, go back quickly!"

When they heard this, they didn't want to hoe the ground anymore, so they put down their hoe and ran back with the old grandson. Anyway, their place is very barren, birds don't shit, and they don't worry about throwing their hoe in the ground.

When they went, a group of people were watching the two sheep, and Xiaopingan was also carried out by Zhong Ping. He stretched out his little hand to touch, and kept screaming. I couldn't tell if she was calling "Mom" or "baa".

Seeing Mr. Li and the others, Xu Hengzhou withdrew from the crowd and took them to see the things on the car. He jumped into the car, moved the things down and handed them down, and He Yuanfeng and Gu Yunzhi picked them up from below.

"Why are there so many?" Mr. Li looked at the food and cloth allocated to him, and asked in surprise. He knew exactly how much he could buy with the money, which was obviously much more.

Mr. Jiang also felt that he had too many things in his house, and frowned, "Xiao Xu, you don't know how to pay for it yourself, how can I let you subsidize us."

Xu Hengzhou shook his head and smiled, "No, that's the price."

He didn't post any money, but he did post some tickets. In this era, it is not enough to have money, you have to have tickets. He has always saved extra tickets. Later, after he went to the countryside, he also asked two of his friends to help replace some, so as not to use money. It's not easy to get up.

These tickets are time-limited, some expire at the end of the month, and some expire at the end of the year. He used to use up all the tickets at the end of the year. Anyway, things will not go bad in the storage space, so it’s nothing to subsidize some tickets for these people.

Li Lao and the others had rich experience, so of course they wouldn't believe Xu Hengzhou's words, but he killed him and didn't pay much, so they had no choice but to write down the favor.

Deng Li didn't ask him to help bring things. After helping, he couldn't take his eyes off the fat mutton in the carriage.

Mr. Li frowned, feeling a bit ashamed to show such a gesture in front of the juniors. They had already caused so much trouble to others, and they were greedy for their flesh.This Deng Li is good in everything, and his character is decent, but he can't take advantage of his mouth, so he just wants to eat alone, which is really not particular.

Xu Hengzhou smiled casually, turned his head and said a few words to Song Wenbin, Song Wenbin said: "Of course, you can dispose of the things you bought with your own money, as you want."

Taking advantage of Mr. Li and the others before they left, Xu Hengzhou invited him directly: "We two brothers have been here for two days, and we haven't had dinner with you yet. Today, by chance, we bought some fresh and good meat. Tonight , borrow my uncle’s land, and I will show everyone, elders, don’t be disgusted.”

What he said was polite and respectful, which made Mr. Li and the others feel at ease, but their pockets were empty, so how dare they put on a shy face to grab a good meal.

Xiang Chen also helped to persuade, and held on to Mr. Li's hand: "Grandpa, come, my brother's cooking is delicious, much better than restaurants."

Everyone was amused, Deng Li bent down to tease him: "How many restaurants have you eaten in, and you admire your brother's cooking skills so much."

Xiang Chen wrinkled his nose, and said in his heart: "Speaking out will scare you to death, I have been to five-star restaurants, and I have eaten many things that you have never seen before."

The matter is settled like this, since we want to treat guests, we should invite them all, there are only so many people in total, it is not good to leave only Lao Zheng and Lao Suntou.

After the decision was made, Xu Hengzhou immediately took action, He Yuanfeng and others started to tidy up an abandoned thatched shed and raised the sheep first.

Song Wenbin moved the other things Xu Hengzhou bought to his house, Zhong Ping helped Xu Hengzhou, Xiang Chen sent her the bag of candy for Teacher Tan, and then hurried back to help his brother.

The kitchen used by Zhong Ping and the others was an old one. The pot was a very large iron pot, which was the standard configuration on the farm. Because of the large number of people, the food cooked in a large pot was enough to eat.Usually, Zhong Ping was not comfortable with it, because the pot was too big, and it took a long time to heat up the pot. Since they had a small family, it was not cost-effective to use a big iron pot for cooking.

But at this time, it is very convenient to have such an iron pot. Take out the sharp bone-cutting knife, Xu Hengzhou handles the ingredients, Zhong Ping lights up the fire, and Lao Zheng cheerfully brings some of his own firewood over, so that he can eat such a meal , Sending some firewood is nothing.

There are few vegetables in the Northwest. Fortunately, Xu Hengzhou went to the city to buy some. They are common radishes and cabbage. Zhong Ping also has potatoes at home. These are usually eaten as food, but they can be cooked with meat.

After busying for more than an hour, the meal was finally ready, and a group of people gathered at Song Wenbin's house.Song Wenbin's table was not big enough, so Lao Zheng brought his family's table here and put them together. When he came, he brought stools and bowls with him. There were not many at home.

The food on the table is rare and abundant, mutton with hands, beef stewed with potatoes, and the old man, the meat is stewed until soft and rotten. These are two big dishes, full of weight.The radish is shredded and fried quickly, with a little meat oil, it is also very delicious, tender and flavorful.There is also a steamed dish. The dried vegetables stored by Zhong Ping are soaked in water, and the fat meat is cut and steamed together. The dried vegetables are slightly chewy, and there is no firewood after absorbing enough oil and water. It is more enjoyable than meat.

The staple food is beef noodles. The ruddy and fragrant beef cubes lie on the white noodles, with a few pieces of tender and tender vegetable leaves, which will attract people's appetite.

But there is only one bowl for each person, because they obviously don't have that much flour, and they can't eat it all in one meal.So it is also served with yellow steamed buns, which is not enough to eat.

A group of people ate in full swing. At first, they wanted to be polite. As soon as the first chopstick dish was put into their mouths, everyone stopped talking. They took several mouthfuls before they stopped to say something.

Deng Li happily ate a mouthful of beef, and sighed: "Xiao Chenchen, Uncle apologizes to you, you are right, your brother's cooking is indeed much more delicious than the restaurant's."

Xiang Chen lifted his face from the noodle bowl, and said a little proudly: "No need to apologize, those who don't know don't blame it."

"I know a lot." Deng Li said with a smile.

"Our Chenchen is smart, don't underestimate people." Teacher Qin helped Xiang Chen to speak. She got the medicine and took another two days of treatment. Her illness gradually recovered. Although she was still a little weak, she was able to walk around.

Xiang Chen was praised by Teacher Qin, but he felt a little embarrassed, scratched his head and laughed a few times, not only did he not look smart, but he looked a little silly.

Xu Hengzhou shared some of the noodles in his bowl with him: "Eat quickly, it will be cold in a while."

Xiang Chen loves to eat noodles, and just now he patronizes to eat noodles, but he didn't eat much of the dishes, and now the bowl has bottomed out.

Xiang Chen smiled at his brother, did not refuse his brother's kindness, took a chopstick and stuffed it into his mouth, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw that He Yuanfeng next door was doing the same thing, pouring the noodles from his bowl to Gu Yun I didn't eat any meat and vegetables in the bowl, and let them all go out.

He blinked his eyes and thought strangely, Uncle He treats Uncle Gu very well, just like his brother treats him, no, it's not so good, his brother treats him the best.

On this day, a group of people who had been starving for a long time finally had a rare full meal when the year was approaching. Not only were they full, but they also ate very well.

Fortunately, many years have passed, and each of them occupies a high position, or is a high-ranking official, or a general, or a well-known scholar. No matter how many delicacies are prepared with precious ingredients, the most profound memory will always be the food in this earthen room. A good meal.
