good old days

The rain fell as soon as it was said. Chen Yi looked at Jiang Xinyu covering her head with her hands. She didn't know how to say it after holding it in for a week. Now she was afraid that she would catch a cold in the rain. Let’s go back first, and we’ll talk about it tomorrow when we’re on the way to school.”

Jiang Xinyu nodded casually, "Go back quickly, too."

The rain became like a string of beads in an instant. Jiang Xinyu ran and arrived home in less than half a minute.

Every time it rains heavily, the people in the brigade will rest, and they can't do work in this kind of weather. The people working in the field can't hide their joy and walk home with farm tools.

Chen Xiuyun was spreading egg pancakes. The batter was made of white flour. Four eggs were beaten into it, and some leeks that came out of the private plot were chopped and mixed in. The seasoning was added with salt.

As soon as she entered the courtyard, the smell of eggs and leek pancakes in the kitchen made Jiang Xinyu swallow her saliva.

Two egg pancakes were quickly piled up in the small wooden basin on the stove, and Chen Xiuyun greeted the two daughters, "You two eat first, wrap some sour radish to eat."

Even if she spreads the omelette, Chen Xiuyun can save some oil. Dip the oil on the oil cloth and wipe the bottom of the pan twice, and she can fry a complete omelet.

It's not that the two sisters don't know how to feel sorry for others. Comrade Chen Xiuyun has gone to the county early, so they definitely haven't eaten at noon. How can the two of them eat first?

Jiang Yuzhu put the sour radish into a bowl and put it on the earthen table in the house, waiting for her mother to finish frying the omelets and let everyone eat together.

When Chen Jiajia and Li Yuezhen entered the hospital in the rain, they could smell the aroma of leek omelette, which successfully aroused their greed.

The family conditions of the two are very good. After all, people who can still enter a film studio and make movies in these years have a colorful background at home.But after coming to the Wuliqiao Brigade, I haven’t eaten white noodles so far, and the factory’s budget is not that big. It only costs a lot to solve the problem of accommodation, and it is inevitable that I will be nervous about food.

Jiang Yuzhu held a pot of egg pancakes decorated with green leeks and carried them to the main room. When they saw the pot of egg pancakes, they exchanged glances.

After entering the house, Li Yuezhen said, "I'll get the money to buy it, do you want to eat?"

Chen Jiajia pursed her lips. She wanted to eat too, but she couldn't hold back her face. In the end, she couldn't resist her greed, nodded, and took out fifty cents and food stamps from her pocket and gave them to Li Yuezhen.

When Li Yuezhen entered the hall, the mother and daughter were eating.

Jiang Yuzhu asked, "Comrade Li, what's wrong?"

Li Yuezhen explained the reason for coming embarrassingly, and added: "Jiajia and I definitely don't want to eat for nothing, we are willing to give food stamps and money."

Chen Xiuyun simply said, "You'll be charged five cents for a piece, how much?"

In the end, Chen Jiajia didn't take more, fearing that Chen Xiuyun and the others would not be full, so she only took six.

Chen Xiuyun made a lot today, made more than twenty sheets, sold six sheets, and the mother and daughter were full.

Jiang Xinyu said: "Mom, sister, do you think that Comrade Chen Jiajia looks familiar?"

Jiang Xinyu echoed and said: "I felt this way when she moved in. Her eyebrows and eyes are a bit like Chen Yi."

Jiang Xinyu was like enlightened, "That's right, that's right, it's just like Chen Yi, and both of them have the surname Chen."

The two sisters didn't take it seriously, after all, they both knew that Chen Yi's mother had died a long time ago and the man became a widow.

After eating, the rain outside was much lighter, but the tick-tock did not stop.

Chen Xiuyun took out the cloth, gestured to the shoulder width and waist of the two girls, put the scissors into the basin, took two eggs and put them in his pocket, put on a straw hat on his head, and buckled the basin in front of his body. Said: "You two read at home, I will go to the secretary's house to borrow a sewing machine to make clothes."

Rainy days seem to be extra quiet. No matter how thick the walls are, the sound of rain outside the house can be heard. The only quiet things in the house are the sound of flipping books and rain.

At the secretary's house, Chen Xiuyun sat in front of the sewing machine, and Liu Ying, the secretary's wife, helped her.Not to mention that Chen Xiuyun came with eggs, even if she didn't bring anything, the secretary's wife would let Chen Xiuyun use the sewing machine at home.

Since the people from the film studio came, the excitement in the team has almost surrounded them, and some people in the brigade have even been dragged to act as "group performers".

While the two were chatting and laughing, Widow Wang came with shoe soles and needlework.

"Is this making clothes for the two daughters?" Widow Wang touched the good white material, thinking that the conditions of Chen Xiuyun's family are really good.

Chen Xiuyun nodded, "This cloth was sent to me by my natal family. It happens to be suitable for making clothes for Yuzhu and Xinyu. Xinyu wants a white shirt." She looked up at Widow Wang, "These shoes are for Chen Yi. Yes."

Widow Wang nodded, and took out a thimble from the small box of the sewing machine to fit the sole of the shoe, "It's going to be hot soon, I'll make him a pair of shoes."

Liu Ying said with a smile: "Everyone says that Chen Jiajia is good-looking, but I think it's not as good as your family's Xinyu and Yuzhu."

When others praised her girl for her good looks, Chen Xiuyun also showed a smile on her face.

Widow Wang echoed with a smile: "Like you."

Chen Xiuyun joked, "Don't you two feel that Chen Jiajia and Chen Yi are a bit alike?"

Widow Wang was stunned for a moment, lowering her brows and eyes unnaturally, "I haven't seen that girl a few times, are they all filmmakers from Beijing?"

Chen Xiuyun nodded, "The two girls who live in my house both wear watches on their wrists, and the conditions in the house should be unusual."

The three female comrades talked about this and that, and they talked about the affair between Widow Yuan and the old bachelor Zhang Tiezhu.

When it was getting dark, Chen Xiuyun put the semi-finished products into the basin, put all the things to clean up in the basin and said: "It's getting dark, it's time to go back and cook."

The rain outside was much lighter. Liu Ying sent the two of them to the door and said hello before closing the courtyard door.

Widow Wang lowered her voice and said to Chen Xiuyun, "Do you know what Chen Jiajia's father's name is?"

Chen Xiuyun was stunned for a moment, then shook her head: "Then I haven't inquired about it."

Widow Wang rubbed her hands, and said a little uneasy: "You ask me, don't let her notice."

The relationship between Chen Xiuyun and Widow Wang became closer after the children of the two families started dating this year. They knew each other before, and they didn't have many contacts after all. Now the two tacitly agree that they will become in-laws in the future, and now they walk around more.

Chen Xiuyun had some guesses in her heart. Widow Wang didn't say more, and it was hard for her to ask, so she nodded.

Widow Wang walked home with her head sullen, thinking of Chen Jiajia's face.When she went to see the excitement of filming, she felt familiar at first sight when she saw Chen Jiajia.In memory, the face of another woman with bright clothes and slightly raised chin became clearer.

When she opened the courtyard door and entered the house, Widow Wang didn't pay attention and bumped into the door.

"Mom, what are you thinking? Walking without looking at the road?"

Widow Wang concealed a smile, "I'm thinking about what to cook for a while."
