Hard times have room

Chapter 865
"Hey, don't worry, I'm sure it will be packed properly for you." After Wang Jiandang patted his chest, he bent down and carried the basket to the side of the water tank.

There is a water outlet in this place, and it is also convenient to use water.

As for the outside or by the Daqing River, it's not good, it's easy to cause trouble if others see it.

Now every household is tightening their belts to get by. It’s not uncommon to eat wild vegetables and mushrooms to satisfy their hunger. There are so many fish in your house. For some small-minded people, it is a wrong thing in itself.

Su Hongying also went to help. After all, there are a lot of fish, so she can still help. Besides, there are still a lot of snails.

Those snails also need to be processed. The snails have to be blanched first, and then the meat inside is picked out one by one. This work is really time-consuming.

Of course, there is a high probability that you won’t eat snails at noon. Even if you don’t finish picking, it doesn’t matter. After eating, a family of three can just continue working. Three people work together, and the speed is still very fast.

On the other side, Pauline took a hot bath in the bathroom, and there was hot water in her space.

In addition, she also used soap that hadn't been used for a long time. The fishy smell on her body really challenged her sense of smell, otherwise, she might not be willing to use soap to take a bath.

For lunch, the staple food was wild vegetable peanut rice soup made by Su Hongying before Baolin came back, served with pickled fish. The whole family ate it deliciously.

After eating and clearing away the dishes, Baolin started to wash clothes, while Su Hongying and Wang Jiandang sat in the kitchen picking snail meat.

At this time, the boiling water used to blanch the snail meat had already cooled down completely. Even if they tried their best, they could only pick out half of the snail meat at most, but this was enough.

Whether it is snail or snail, the tail of the second half is very bitter, the kind that is more bitter than bitter gourd. Like Baolin, they don’t like to eat that part, but the head part of the snail is different. It tastes like QQ bouncy. That taste is delicious.

For dinner, their family eats snail meat, which is fried with sauerkraut and a little oil. It tastes very good.

In the past, Baolin used chopped chili to stir-fry the snail meat. It was hot, sour and delicious, but this year, the chopped chili at home had already been eaten. If I want to make it again, I have to wait for more than half a month. The chili grown at home has turned red. just work.

Pauline has already told her parents that if the peppers are red at home and she hasn’t come back, they will make this year’s chopped peppers. Pauline also taught them before. It’s very simple, chop the red peppers , just add a lot of salt, this is the simplest, but the taste is very good.

As for the fish at home, there are four big fish, I ate one for lunch, and brought one more than half a catty to the old house, and dried the rest in a large iron pot, and kept them for eating slowly.

After dinner, the three of Pauline's family sat on the stone pier in the yard, watching the moon and talking.

It is still the beginning of the month, the moon is not round at all, it looks like a small crescent, but the bright white moon, no matter what it looks like, is so beautiful.

"Baolin, has the time for your exam been set? You have to take the exam seriously! After so many years, this exam is the last one to tremble, so don't be careless." Tight, with a tense look on his face.

It was only now that she really felt the pressure of being the parent of an examinee. Although she did not go to school to take the exam, this exam deeply affected her heart. Watch Pauline this time.

"What are you talking about, why are you telling Pauline these things before the exam starts? Isn't that putting pressure on her?" Wang Jiandang tugged at the corner of La Su Hongying's clothes and said in a low voice.

He said it was a low voice, but in fact it was compared with his usual speaking volume, his voice was still obvious in this quiet night, at least Pauline could hear what her father said clearly.

"Dad, I'm fine. It's impossible for me to be stressed because of these few words. If my ability to resist stress is so weak, why should I take any exams?" Pauline didn't care at all. Said.

With a sound of "snap", she slapped a mosquito to death on her thigh. As expected, it was a flower mosquito who cultivated in the mountains, and its bite was much more painful than ordinary mosquitoes.

"Why, did the mosquito bite you?" Su Hongying raised the cattail fan in her hand, and smugly slapped Pauline on the opposite side.

"Hmm." Pauline was scratching the place on her thigh where she had just been bitten, and absent-mindedly replied a word.

"I told you just now, take a cattail fan, so that if you fan it from time to time, there will not be so many mosquitoes around."

"Although your cattail fan is a little old and there is a little more dust on it, but you are too lazy to wash it yourself, so no one else can blame it." Su Hongying fanned herself comfortably with the cattail fan. Sure enough, it was much more comfortable, even annoying. The mosquitoes are also much quieter.

"Come on, I chose to give up that cattail fan. This month, when I stayed at home, it was only this night. The mosquitoes in our house will not be rampant against me for long."

"By the way, I will take the college entrance examination on the [-]th and [-]th of next month. Within three days after the college entrance examination, the students who live in the dormitory need to pack up all the things in the dormitory. At that time, remember to come to the school to help me move things what!"

"I have a lot of things in my dormitory. If I'm alone, I can't move much."

Pauline's head hurts now just thinking about the pile of things in the dormitory.

Among other things, just the buckets, bamboo mats and wooden boxes, which one is easy to move, besides, there are quilts, pillows, clothes and books, just thinking about it makes Pauline feel dizzy.

When she was in school before, she still thought that she had the fewest things, but when it was time to move things, her things were not much less.

At the same time, because these things are all on the bright side, Pauline dare not use the space to smuggle, so she can only ask her parents for help.

"Okay, let's tentatively set it as number nine!"

"If the ox cart in the village is empty at that time, let your father drive the ox cart to help you move your things. If there is no ox cart, the two of us will go to the town and take a cart to help you move your things."

"If we didn't go to you on the 11th, it should have been postponed to the [-]th. Of course, the latest is NO.[-]."

Time flies too fast, in a blink of an eye, three years have passed, and Pauline is about to graduate soon.

At this time, Su Hongying remembered the scene three years ago, just a few days after Baolin started school, she and her father took Baolin's things and went to Baolin school. Time really passed too fast.

"If there is an ox cart, let's try to borrow an ox cart, which will be much more convenient, although it will take a lot of time." Wang Jiandang added after Su Hongying.
