Don't be cannon fodder one [Comprehensive]

Chapter 382

Chen Li?

"The Chen Li from the educated youth?" Lin Lin thought for a while, she knew Chen Li, and Xia Xiaoxue also knew this one.

"Yes, that's him. When we came out today, Chen Li told me that he would come over to greet you tomorrow." Xia Xiaoxue nodded, and then looked down at her watch.

"Is he coming or is everyone else coming?" Lin Lin put the sauce for the steamed fish on the lid of the pot to heat it up, "I still think that the three of us will wake up early tomorrow morning to greet the old village head and then go to the branch secretary At home. If he’s the only one coming, forget it. When we come out from the branch secretary’s house, I’ll also go back to the educated youth’s place.”

Hearing what Lin Lin said, Xia Xiaoxue tilted her head and recalled what Chen Li said before, and found that she was not sure, so she raised her voice and called Yao Tian into the room, asking if he heard clearly.

What is 30 years in Hedong and 30 years in Hexi.That's it.

Yao Tian came out of the room, imitating Lin Lin's sister, raised his eyebrows and smiled at Lin Lin. "I didn't hear clearly either. I'll send a message for you when I go back in the evening."

Evened out.

OK, it's evened out.

After the two reached a tacit understanding through Xia Xiaoxue, it was time for the fish in the pot.

When Lin Lin heard Xia Xiaoxue's time report, she quickly asked Yao Tian to clean up the kang table and bring up the bowls, chopsticks and cold dishes.She carefully lifted the lid of the pot and carefully observed the steamed fish in the pot.

The fish was indeed steamed.Using two pieces of sackcloth as a pad, he carefully took the fish out of the pot, and took another look at the bean rice that steamed into the pot before the fish.

Seeing that the meal was ready, he brought it out.Hand over the two pieces of linen to Xia Xiaoxue and ask her to bring them into the house.And she herself scooped up all the water in the ground pot.

Heat the pot on high heat, drain the pot of water and scoop out a spoonful of lard.When the oil was cooked, Lin Lin picked out the ginger and shallots that were steamed with the fish and discarded them with chopsticks, and put the new shallots and shredded ginger on the fish.

Put some dried chili shreds on top, pour the sauce first, and finally pour a layer of oil, Lin Lin's steamed fish is ready.

Ask Yao Tian to bring the fish in, and Lin Lin puts onion, ginger, garlic and dried chili shreds in the ground pot that has just been heated with oil. The casserole was brought into the house, and after returning from the house, the sauerkraut powder was put out of the pot.

All six dishes, which are very simple and practical, are on the table.

Lin Lin turned off the fire, Yao Tian went out and locked the door, then went back to the house and locked the inside door.The three of them went back to the house and went to the kang table together, eating the first New Year's Eve dinner in a foreign land with tea and wine around the kang table.

Firecrackers are a very extravagant thing, and life is not rich now, and some people used to think that setting off firecrackers is a feudal superstitious behavior, so no one in Taishu Village has set off firecrackers in recent years.

Thinking that it was their educated youth who made such an argument, Lin Lin felt that the educated youth who said this would have a fever in his ears throughout the first month.

Like a wolf...'teammate'.

╯ (╯ ▽ ╰) ╭

It has been quiet outside, just like every day in this winter.The three of Lin Lin ate in the room, and they also ate from the lively at the beginning to the quiet.

Xia Xiaoxue was a little sentimental.It was the first time she was so far away from home and did not celebrate the New Year with her family.

Why not Yao Tian.

But both of them are concerned that Lin Lin has no family, so they try not to show it.While eating, the three of them talked about the current situation, about educated youth going to the countryside, and about the country's lack of emphasis on education. They talked a lot.

Especially Lin Lin, who brought up the inference of resuming the college entrance examination in front of different people for the second time today.

Yao Tian very much agreed with Lin Lin's statement. The feudal dynasties paid so much attention to education, how could they not pay attention to it in Xinguo?

This situation is certain.

"I also understand that the college entrance examination will definitely resume. But who knows what year it will be?" Looking at Yao Tian and then at Lin Lin, Xia Xiaoxue touched her face, she was really worried that she wouldn't be able to wait.

"Don't worry, it won't be too late." Lin Lin took a small sip of the soup in the casserole in a small bowl, and smiled contentedly, "When you all leave, I will be the only one left here .” She absolutely, absolutely will not take the college entrance examination again.

As if thinking of something, Lin Lin looked at Yao Tian and Xia Xiaoxue with a smile, "Maybe the college entrance examination will resume in a few years, and you still have to carry your children to college."

Hearing Lin Lin mentioning the child, Xia Xiaoxue's face flushed slightly.Turning to look at Yao Tian, ​​my heart is sweet.

Yao Tian held Xia Xiaoxue's hand, as if he had seen the scene Lin Lin mentioned before him, and said with a wretched smile, "I will take care of the child when the time comes, and I will definitely not hold you back."

Xia Xiaoxue nodded with a smile, and replied with a heavy 'hmm'.I strive for fewer births.

Lin Lin squinted at the pair of fools, and was speechless.

Fortunately, Yao Tian didn't commit crimes often, otherwise the couple's future life would be worrying...

After finishing their meal, both Lin Lin and Xia Xiaoxue leaned back.Pointing to the kang table, he made a gesture of invitation to Yao Tian.

Yao Tian reached out and touched his forehead as a sign of obedience, and then went to pick up the dishes and clean the dishes.

The dishes Lin Lin cooks are not large, but they are not small either.There are some leftovers, just in time for dinner.After Yao Tian brought all the dishes to the kitchen, Lin Lin placed the Kang table in the middle of the Kang table, made another pot of tea, and placed the melon seed box on the Kang table.He took out ten pieces of toffee from the drawer and some hard candies that he had bought from the supply and marketing agency in the county before the closure of the mountain.

Finally got up and went to the warehouse, took out a bottle of canned fruit and yellow peaches.

After Yao Tian finished washing the dishes, Lin Lin asked him to bring in two more bowls and three spoons.

Opened the can and poured some into two bowls, Lin Lin took a spoon and directly used the glass bottle that contained the can as a bowl.

I don't know where Lin Lin left the habit of eating canned yellow peaches during the Chinese New Year. In short, if you don't eat a bowl, you will feel that there is something missing.

It was past six o'clock in the afternoon, and it was pitch black outside with no moon or stars.Lin Lin took out a thin quilt from the kang cabinet and covered her body, and fell asleep leaning against the wall inside.

Xia Xiaoxue slept next to Lin Lin, but because there was a kang table in the middle, Xia Xiaoxue slept sideways under the wall of the kang cabinet, while Yao Tian slept by the window with his head facing the kang cabinet and feet facing the door .

The three of them slept until ninety o'clock in the evening before waking up.

After waking up, they lay there for a while on the bed before the three of them started to move.

Xia Xiaoxue went to make the noodles, Lin Lin went to mix the stuffing, and Yao Tian prepared the noodle table and other things and brought them into the house.

When cooking at noon, almost a bundle of corn stalks was burned in the ground pot, so now the kang is still hot and the house is not cold, so Lin Lin didn't let Yao Tian go to burn the kang.

The three of them made a lot of dumplings, not only for tonight, but also for tomorrow morning.

Put the wrapped dumplings on the curtain and put them in the yard to freeze.The remaining dumplings were cooked in the pot at twelve o'clock.

The dumplings tonight and tomorrow morning cannot eat mashed garlic.The three of Lin Lin ate soy sauce, vinegar and chili oil very deliciously.

After the meal, Lin Lin divided the frozen dumplings, she only kept a few, and let Xia Xiaoxue and Yao Tian take the rest back and cook them tomorrow morning.

After sending the two away, Lin Lin locked the door and went back to the space.

If you don't take a bath in the New Year, you will be buried for a whole year.

She doesn't care whether others wash it or not, Lin Lin must wash it anyway.

After taking a shower, leave the space.Lin Lin didn't blow out the kerosene lamp that was always on in the house, and just fell asleep under the dim light.

According to the older generation, from New Year's Eve to the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the lights cannot be turned off at night.At least one lamp must be left.

Lin Lin usually uses a rechargeable portable light at night.But when Xia Xiaoxue and Yao Tian were around, Lin Lin would use kerosene lamps.

There was no Spring Festival Gala, no bells and firecrackers, the year Lin Lin spent in Taishu Village was so quiet that one could not feel the atmosphere of the New Year.

……

On New Year's Day, she couldn't sleep in late, so Lin Lin got up at dawn according to the custom. After washing up, she cooked herself a plate of her favorite pork, leek and shrimp dumplings, and took out two delicious dishes from the space. Meimei sat cross-legged on the kang and ate.

On the first and second day of junior high school, she didn't wash clothes or sweep the floor, and Lin Lin didn't have much work to do, so she tidied herself up and leaned on the kang to play small games on the single machine.

At about eight o'clock, Xia Xiaoxue and Yao Tian came together.The three said "Happy Chinese New Year" to each other. Lin Lin accepted the red envelope specially given to her by the two of them, and returned a gift that was neither light nor heavy. The three of them looked at each other and smiled without delay before putting on their coats. Lock the door and go out.

Along the way, many villagers went out to pay New Year's greetings. Everyone exchanged auspicious words and walked towards their destinations.

Lin Lin and the others were not the first to come to pay New Year's greetings to the old village head, and of course they would not be the last.

The reason why everyone came to pay New Year's greetings to the old village head was because they knew that the production team leader must be at the old village head's house.

There is a discord between the village party secretary and the team leader, with one in charge of political education and the other in production.They are all people that the villagers cannot offend.The village is only so big, and whoever gives New Year's greetings first will spread the word.

But it's different if it's New Year's greetings to the old village head.

In terms of seniority, the old village head should also be the number one person in the village.Give New Year greetings to the old village head first, and the village branch can pass on paper.

Therefore, in the past few years, everyone has coincidentally paid New Year greetings to the old village head first.

Lin Lin had inquired about these matters early in the morning.That's why they took Xia Xiaoxue and Yao Tian along this route.

Yao Tian also inquired about it, but he inquired with the educated youth in the educated youth order.

The perspectives of educated youths and villagers are inherently surprising.

For example, what the educated youth think is very important is not as important as digging through the cesspit twice in spring in the eyes of the villagers.

Between an educated youth and a villager, it is difficult to integrate into the village on weekdays because of their different backgrounds, standpoints and visions.They are not like Lin Lin, who are young, sweet-talking, and have hard skills in their hands.When most of the educated youths in Taishu Village were thinking about food and clothing and returning to the city, what Lin Lin thought about was how to gain a firm foothold in this village and become a big landlord here.

The three of Lin Lin paid New Year's greetings at the old village head's house and left if they couldn't finish their New Year's greetings. They talked affectionately with the old village head and Tie Zhu's family for a while. can go.

Lin Lin pulled Xia Xiaoxue to talk to Tie Zhu's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. From time to time, she had to take a look at her uncle Xiaocui who was awkward when she saw them.While talking, the door of the old village head's house was pulled open again.

When Lin Lin saw someone coming, she quickly got up and said that she would go to the next house to pay New Year's greetings.Walking out, I happened to meet the person who was going to come in.

Yao Tian and Xia Xiaoxue didn't know each other, but Lin Lin met once.

It was the uncle Gong who raised his seniority because of his name.

Grand Uncle Gong... Grand Uncle...
