The Boss of the Yan Family in Siheyuan

Chapter 99

After agreeing to Secretary Shi Zhong's invitation, Yan Jiecheng and Lao Xie didn't go back and stayed in the conference room of the prefectural committee.

At this time, the office of the Huangyuan Prefectural Committee was not yet heated, and the two of them were leaning against a small stove to keep warm.

The cans of tea on the stove were gurgling.

Canned tea is a characteristic traditional refreshment diet in some areas of Qinlong.

A unique custom of drinking tea in the local farmers from ancient to modern times.

The main utensils are pots. When drinking tea from pots, pour water into the pots and burn them on the stove.

At the same time, roast the dates by the stove, wait until the water in the jar is boiled, put the tea leaves, roasted dates, and longan with shells into the jar.

Wait for the tea to be boiled and the water overflows several times, that is, after the taste of jujube, longan and tea leaves enters the water.

Pour the boiled water into the cup, then add water to the pot, continue to boil, and drink while boiling.

Yan Jiecheng carefully flipped through the jujubes on the stove lid, while Lao Xie watched with interest.

This way of drinking tea is also the first time for the two of them, it is really interesting.

The roasted jujube has a tangy aroma, and the taste is easily dissolved in water.

According to Tian Fujun: one can of scale scab, two cans of tea, and three cans will not let the father-in-law.

That is to say, the first can is to wash away the dust of tea leaves, jujubes, longan, etc.

Belongs to dirt.

The second can is tea.

The third can is so delicious that even if the old man is around, he won't drink it.

Yan Xiecheng studied it carefully, and found that the tea they use in this pot is green tea, which is semi-fermented and especially resistant to foaming.

So the first pot of tea, the two of them had a tacit understanding and didn't drink it.

After waiting for the second can, Lao Xie quickly poured it for himself with a look of embarrassment.

Yan Jiecheng enjoys exclusive treatment that this old man does not have.

"How is it, Director, is this third can good?" Lao Xie asked curiously.

Yan Jiecheng smiled and said, "This taste is still very unique.

This tea not only has the fragrance of tea leaves, but also the thick aroma of jujube and the sweet and sour taste of longan, with many layers and rich taste. "

Old Xie: "Haha, I just think it's delicious."

In addition to drinking tea in the afternoon, Yan Jiecheng also took time to write letters to Luo Gong at home.

It's already the twelfth lunar month, and it seems that I can't go back for the Chinese New Year this year, so Yan Xiecheng wrote a letter to explain.

After being away from home for a few months, Yan Jiecheng did not feel homesick, unlike Lao Xie who often thought of his wife and daughter.

This may be the difference between young people and middle-aged people.

At four or five o'clock in the afternoon, Secretary Shi had already packed his things and brought Tian Fujun here.

A few people went to the family area next to the prefectural committee, which were some single-family buildings.

Of course it can't be a cave dwelling.

It is a type of courtyard house similar to a courtyard house, with no houses in the south.

This is also a local characteristic.

In the evening, the secretary's table dishes were very simple, but Yan Jiecheng ate very comfortably.

Deputy Secretary Shi Zhong understood Yan Xiecheng.

A pot of mutton in clear soup and a plate of pancakes.

Not only nourishing, but also very satisfying.

Secretary Shi asked Yan Xiecheng about the railway in detail.

Yan Jiecheng didn't go around the bush, and explained the situation in detail.

Secretary Shi didn't say much, he just said that this situation is very important to us.

After eating the meat, Yan Jiecheng and the others bid farewell.

In the following days, Yan Jiecheng and the others carried out the investigation mission step by step.

1959 passed without knowing it. On the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month, Yan Xiecheng and the others had already arrived at the former Xishige Festival Commune camp.

Yan Jiecheng wasn't being hypocritical either, saying something about Chinese New Year.

Everyone in the entire headquarters was working in such a busy state, and none of them went home for the New Year.

This afternoon, Yan Jiecheng and the others went to Shuangshui Village.

Just because the railway passes through Shuangshui Village, where two rivers meet, Yan Xiecheng needs to see it on the spot.

Looking at the materials, Yan Jiecheng's memories of this place gradually emerged.

Shuangshui Village got its name from the confluence of Kuiyan River and Dongla River.

The village consists of Jinjiawan and Tianjiagelao.

From Shige Festival to Shuangshui Village, you will arrive along the Dongla River all the way.

Xiao Liu parked the car in front of the stone bridge at the entrance of the village, and Yan Jiecheng and Lao Xie got out of the car and went to the village by themselves.

After walking more than 100 meters, the two arrived at the first house at the entrance of the village.

Yan Jiecheng saw a dilapidated courtyard.

At the door was a man in his thirties, with a white towel wrapped around his head, and a ragged jacket that could no longer be worn normally, so he had to tie a rope around his waist. He was cleaning the courtyard wall with mud.

"Brother, are you busy? I'll ask you for someone. Where is your Murata Futang branch secretary's house?" Lao Xie hurried forward to ask for directions.

At this moment, another young man came out of the yard, about the same age as Yan Jiecheng.

Like a bum, he said to the man, "Brother, I'm going to read a book."

"Don't be in a hurry, you wait first."

The young man also saw Yan Jiecheng and the others at this moment, and instead of leaving in a hurry, he looked at them with a fiery face.

"Yeah, you are looking for Tian Futang, the party secretary of Ermen's village. Let Erdi take us there now."

Then he turned his head and said to the young man: "Yuting, don't be in a hurry to study. Hurry up, these leaders are looking for Tian Futang, you take them with you."

"Okay, brother."

Seeing this, Yan Jiecheng thought to himself: Sure enough.

These people are the two brothers Sun Yuhou.

Yan Jiecheng thanked Lao Xie, and then followed Sun Yuting.

"Leader, hey, my name is Sun Yuting. He graduated from high school. That was Brother Er just now."

Yan Jiecheng and Lao Xie also smiled and said, "Hello, Comrade Sun Yuting."

"Let me tell you, Tian Futang Branch Secretary Na is very familiar with the Russians. He and Brother Er used to herd cattle for the gold landlord's house together."

Then he said braggingly: "Brother Fu's younger brother, Brother Fu Jun, is the leader of the prefectural committee, and Brother Er even saved his life."

Yan Jiecheng knew that this guy talked a lot, so he didn't care, so Lao Xie felt a little disgusted.

But he still had to agree, which was really difficult for him.

Fortunately, the two families are not far away, and they will arrive in a while.

"Brother Futang, Erlai brought someone here for you."

Before entering the door, Sun Yuting yelled.

After a while, a man in his thirties came out wearing a Zhan Zhan hat.

With a displeased look on his face, he said, "Oh, Yuting, you are really freaking out.

Hey, I said you are an old child, if you have something to do, you can come in.

I also imitate people coming from the city, and don't check if there is any oil in my stomach. "

They were also surprised when they saw Yan Jiecheng, and immediately put on a smile.

Said: "You guys are the two leaders from the capital, right? The brothers from the Russian family have sent a letter to Ertuo, and the commune also said that you are coming these two days.

Hurry up and sit inside. "

Yan Jiecheng smiled and said, "I'm sorry for the trouble, Cousin Fu."

"Don't bother, don't bother, you are friends of Fujun, and that is my friend of Tian Futang."

After several people entered the gate, Tian Futang yelled: "My baby, hurry up and pour tea for the two leaders from the capital. These are friends of the Russian brother Fujun."
