Chapter 275
"Brother Wang, Sister Lanhua, you are here, come in and sit down." Tan Lei was picking up the firewood he had just brought back, looked up and said hastily.
When Wang Manyin's family walked into the yard, Dahai raised his head and shouted, "Uncle Tan."
Tan Lei nodded in response, and asked with a smile, "Is the holiday fun?"
Dahai nodded, "It's fun." After he finished speaking, he thought about it and added, "But it's also fun at school."
Tan Lei laughed out loud, and said, "When you're done playing, don't forget to do your homework. Although I don't have much homework, you still have to do it. If you don't know anything, just ask me."
Deng Liping, who was wearing an apron, heard the movement, came out of the cave, and said with a smile: "If Ren Dahai didn't know how to do it, he wouldn't come to ask you. Wouldn't it be better to ask Brother Wang?"
Tan Lei froze for a moment, laughed and nodded, "Yes, your godfather is much better than me."
Dahai didn't know how to respond, so he could only smile politely.
Lan Hua rubbed Hai Hai's head, looked at the yard and said, "Li Ping, you have kept this place really clean, and you have repaired this cave too?"
Deng Liping nodded, followed her gaze to look at the cave dwelling in the courtyard, remembering the dilapidated appearance at the beginning, a sense of accomplishment couldn't help but grow in her heart.
Facts have proved that as long as you work hard, you will get better every day.
On the first night when she came to Guanzi Village, the despair this dilapidated cave dwelling gave her was incomparable, but she and Tan Lei worked hand in hand, and it took nearly a year to finally make life look like a decent one.
Although the cave dwelling is still the same cave dwelling, after repairs, although it is still dilapidated, there is no problem for people to live in.
In addition, there are a few chickens and ducks in the yard, and occasionally they can eat an egg to improve their lives. There is also a big black pig next to the chicken pen.
Every time she sees this big black pig, she has infinite expectations in her heart. When it is killed during the Chinese New Year, not only will there be meat to eat, but the family savings will also increase.
Adding in her and Tan Lei's salaries, it will be a matter of time before things get better and better. In two years, they may be able to save enough money to get married and have children.
Deng Liping came back to her senses, looked at the plate in Lan Hua's hand, and asked curiously: "Sister Lan Hua, what are you holding?"
Lan Hua gestured to the plate in her hand, and replied with a smile: "The fried cowpea with minced meat at noon, why don't you use it as a side dish, if you don't eat it, it will go bad tonight."
Deng Liping looked at it and said in surprise, "There's still so much meat in it."
Hearing this, Tan Lei leaned over to take a look, and smacked his mouth, "Here, Sister Lanhua, we agreed to treat you to dinner, and you guys bring the food here yourself."
Wang Manyin laughed nonchalantly, "Okay, don't worry about mother-in-law, I brought a bottle of wine over here, Leizi, let's have a good drink today."
Tan Lei didn't hesitate, and silently recorded their friendship in his heart, nodded, "Okay, let's not get drunk tonight!"
While everyone was talking, Chen Donghe and Hu Yuehua also came over, and the small courtyard suddenly became more lively.
Hu Yuehua still carried three catties of white noodles in his hand, they never came to eat empty-handed, Tan Lei refused for a while, but he still couldn't resist the two of them, so he had to accept the white noodles.
Chen Donghe suggested: "Leizi, since Man Yin has added a meat dish, I think you might as well save a pheasant, marinate it with salt, then hang it on the stove to smoke, and save it for later eating."
Wang Manyin echoed: "That's right, Uncle Donghe is right, no matter what you say, life still has to go on, and one stew is enough for tonight."
A warm current slowly flowed between Tan Lei and Deng Liping's hearts. They were very lucky to meet such good neighbors, and they really thought of them in everything.
Since they came to Guanzi Village as educated youths, they no longer know how much favor they owe. It is with the help of their neighbors that they can quickly take root in Guanzi Village, and their days are getting brighter every day.
Tan Lei sniffled fiercely, and nodded vigorously, "Okay, Brother Wang, Uncle Donghe, I'll listen to you, save a chicken to smoke, and we'll eat it later."
The setting sun fell into the mountain, and the fish-scale-shaped fire clouds spread in the sky. At the end of the western sky, the fire clouds vaguely formed the shape of a dragon, which was extremely spectacular.
Tan Lei wiped the necks of the two pheasants and put them into the wooden bucket. Deng Liping boiled hot water and poured the hot water into the wooden bucket. The heat rose rapidly, bringing out the stench of the pheasants.
After the hair on the pheasant was scalded and softened, Tan Lei took it out and put it in a dustpan, and quickly pulled out the hair. Chen Donghe helped while smoking a dry cigarette.
The three women of Lanhua were preparing dinner for the evening in the kitchen, while Wang Manyin hugged his two sons and chatted with Chen Donghe and the others in the yard.
After plucking the chicken feathers clean, Tan Lei used a knife to open up the intestines of the two chickens, pulled out the internal organs, and then cleaned them twice.
Send the bigger chicken to the stove and let Deng Liping stew it for dinner at night, and marinate the smaller one with salt, hang it on the stove, and keep it for later eating.
Dinner was not ready until the sky became dark.
Tonight's food is also very simple, a big bowl of soybean soup with red dates and chicken, custard made from wild eggs, minced cowpea from Wang Manyin's house, and a bowl of loofah soup.
As for the staple food, it is naturally corn buns.
There are a total of four dishes, the highest standard for entertaining guests, and there are three meat dishes in them. Chen Donghe and Tan Lei's family are so happy that they can't find the north. Tonight, we can reward the Wuzang Temple.
Tan Lei and the others moved the table into the yard, and brought out the meals. When the kerosene lamps were lit, they greeted everyone to eat.
The space inside the cave is too small to accommodate so many people, so they can only eat in the yard.
And there were only four benches, so three men and Da Hai sat, and Lan Hua and three women stood aside to pick up vegetables.
"Come on, Brother Wang, Uncle Donghe, I respect you all, thank you for taking care of me and Liping this year, Liping and I will keep it in our hearts, not much to say, it's all in the wine!" Tan Lei raised his glass Said.
Wang Manyin and Chen Donghe raised their glasses to touch him, each took a sip, and everyone started to gobble it up.
When people in this era drink alcohol, they have to fill their stomachs first before drinking. After all, drinking is not as important as filling their stomachs.
Wang Manyin poured a bowl of chicken soup for himself and Lanhua, and said while blowing on the heat, "Leizi, you and Liping have been here for a year, when are you going to get married?"
When Hu Yuehua heard this, he immediately became interested, and echoed, "Yes, what Man Yin said is good, if you two don't get married, you will always have a bad name and a bad name, and you will easily be gossiped about."
"Especially you, Liping, a woman who is not married, how can you stay in the same cave with a man. Of course, my aunt knows that your situation is different, but it is better to be married after all."
