A Rural Life in the 70s

Obviously Song Xiulian is also very aware of the character of her mother-in-law. She sighed in the room: “I didn’t hear the chicken call when I went home, probably…”

Sure enough, Xiaoqiu went to the henhouse and looked at it empty. She came back and said to Song Xiulian, and asked: “Mother, do we have chickens in our house?”

It is also because the chickens in the countryside are free-range, and occasionally there will be a wrong situation. Therefore, almost every household has made a mark on their own chickens, some have a cloth on the chicken feet, and some are on the chicken. The location is painted with paint, pigment or something.

Song Xiulian said: “It is a red pigment under the chicken wings… But Xiaoqiu, the chicken is gone, no more, don’t make a mistake for a few chickens, you are young, don’t eat a loss!”

“Yes, mother, don’t worry!” Xiaoqiu readily agreed, but my heart has begun to figure it out.

The fence gates of their homes are closed. The villagers at this time are still relatively simple. As long as the doors are closed, they will not be chaotic. Only Xiaoqiu’s grandmother is not afraid to see them. Besides, her grandmother, who loves to be cheap and not enough, is there, how could she let go of three hens who lay eggs!

However, this matter is not urgent. At this time, few people in the countryside are willing to kill the hens and eat meat. They are all raising eggs. Grandma can steal the chicken back. It is impossible to release it in a short time. In which case, she may be detained. She can wait a few days, when her grandmother relaxes her vigilance, she will find another opportunity to find the possibility. Big.

About the time is almost the same, Xiaoqiu will give Song Xiulian a good medicine to drink, and then sent warm water to let Song Xiulian sigh, this turned out.

The hot water was burned in the pot, and Xiaoqiu first went to the edge of the warm water with a half basin of water. He washed the hot towel and wiped his face with Song Xiulian. Then she washed the hair with hot water in front of the cooktop and scrubbed her body. This time the weather is cold and the water is not easy to burn. The village is almost not bathing in the winter, and there are very few shampoos. Xiaoqiu clearly saw the black cockroaches on his knees…but the conditions are limited. What she can do is to wash her hair, rub the bath, and the bath is too cold, it is not realistic!

Xiaoqiu, with hot water, washed the diapers and clothes that the younger brother had replaced, and when he returned to his sore back, he suddenly remembered the bucket that was collected at noon.

She took the curtain and looked inside. The mother and the younger brother fell asleep, breathing evenly and long, and then they pulled back and quietly took out the bucket of the grand rice and saw it only halfway when it was closed at noon. Bowl rice, the bottom of the bucket has not been covered yet, only half a day, has piled a thick layer at the bottom of the bucket, Xiaoqiu reached into it, almost her half finger deep… even if she is small Half a finger is almost three centimeters… I’m squatting in my hand, there should be two or three pounds of rice! She used the amount of the bowl again, and she even had more than three bowls.

Half a bowl of rice has become three bowls in half a day, and almost nine bowls in the middle of the night, that is eighteen times. If it is put into a bucket? Will it become 18 barrels?

Xiao Qiuqiang self-satisfied with the excitement and excitement of the heart, measured a bowl of rice in the bucket, and received it. She wants to see how much it will become tomorrow morning!

Lying in the bed, feeling the warmth and dryness of the fire, Xiaoqiu relaxed and stretched a lazy waist, while raising a question in his heart: Sancha Hu Weihong loves the most lively people, this day actually did not see the figure?

This thought flashed past. Xiaoqiu’s thought before going to sleep was the oil, meat and white noodles in Qu Mingqiang’s room. If there was a storage space early, those things could not be let go!

No dreams for a night, then open your eyes, the sky is already bright.

Next to the younger brother has already woken up, stunned, Song Xiulian is sideways and took his son into his arms to feed.

Xiaoqiu quickly got up and asked Song Xiulian’s body. Song Xiulian said that he slept well and didn’t have a fever. Xiaoqiu gave up his heart, wore clothes and squatted, and washed his face and combed his head to start cooking.

Put on the porridge and boil the eggs. Xiaoqiu took the hot water and gave Song Xiulian a wash and wash his face. He poured his face and turned back to take the hot medicine to Song Xiulian and drank it. Then he had breakfast and ended up on the edge. Let Song Xiulian eat.

After eating breakfast, after washing, Xiaoqiu had to take a break, and then remembered the rice that was collected the night before.

Take it out and see, hey, put a bowl of rice last night, and now it has risen to half a bucket!

Xiao Qiuqi opened his mouth and smiled silently: Oh, this time, you don’t have to worry about eating rice!

However, it is estimated that there will be no more confession, Xiaoqiu will not enlarge the rice, but go to the grain jar in the corner of the house, pull out a small bag of sesame, probably less than half a catty, and home A small bag of soybeans was held in two buckets and collected.

Sesame can change the sesame oil and change the hemp sauce. It is a very nutritious good thing; soy beans can produce bean sprouts, but also canfu, soy milk… no condition to drink milk for the family, it is also excellent to drink soy milk once a day.

Didn’t wait for her to pack up the messy grains, she heard that the great mother Wei Hongmei greeted people at the gate: “The big scorpion is coming over? Hey, hey, Xiu Lian Niang came out of the house yesterday… The child is too Oh, I don’t want to breathe a bite. I also came back to Xiulian. I only knew that when she took the child to your side…”

“Don’t say it, Xiulian was hospitalized in the town. The child didn’t talk to me. I still heard people say this morning… Hey, think about it, I don’t know the two days.” A few of the girls came over…” The voice was a little old and hoarse, but Xiaoqiu was very kind, because this is her awkward voice!

Xiaoqiu’s hand, and then refused to pick up, turned and went out. As soon as I got out of the house, I saw that Zhong Yuqin held a basket, followed by Xiaoxiu Song Xiuju, who had already walked to the middle of the yard.

After a few decades, I saw the most painful cockroaches again. Xiaoqiu instantly blinked and forced her to bite her lips without crying: “Hey…”

At the sight of Xiaoqiu, Zhong Yuqin also refused to talk to Wei Hongmei. He stepped up and stepped up to raise his hand and took a small autumn slap. He hated the voice: “You silly boy, your mother is hospitalized for several days. You don’t know where to go to find your mother? If you didn’t meet your Yuhua scorpion, you don’t even know what you are… You talk about a little person, take care of your mother and brother… …”

Counting down, Zhong Yuqin couldn’t stop crying and couldn’t stop crying.

The beggar said that the tears in Xiaoqiu’s eyes could no longer be tolerated, and they fell down. The girls both cried and cried at the gate. Song Xiuju also kept crying, and even Wei Hongmei next to him was red.

Fortunately, she was relatively calm, waiting for a moment, seeing the old lady Zhong Yuqin and Xiaoqiu’s slowing down, and smearing her eyes, holding the arm of Mrs. Zhong’s wife and admonishing: “Song’s son” You just take the tears, you are so standing in the wind, crying, if you hurt a wind, isn’t it that Xiu Lian is in a hurry? Under the roots, it is not auspicious…” Div>
