Siheyuan, I am He Yushui's classmate

Chapter 16 Chapter Sixteen
Finally, it was basically sorted out before dark.He could have a place to sleep at night. During this period, Zhao Jinhe went out to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought a small stove and a kettle. He also went to the third uncle's house and borrowed ten pieces of briquettes, one of which still had sparks on it. Opening the door and window, he directly put half a pot of water on the stove and let it boil slowly. The temperature at home gradually stopped being cold and humid. Zhao Jinhe took out five steamed buns and a lunch box of shredded potatoes and vegetables that he had made in the canteen in the morning. On the stove.

"It's finally the end of packing up."

Zhao Jinhe and his third uncle sat directly on the reed mat on the heated kang, and offered him a cigarette. They didn't do heavy physical work for a day, but tidying up the home's bits and pieces was everywhere, and it seemed that they would never do it. I can't finish it, and I can find that there should be tidying up after a rest.

There is no cigarette that can't open the chatter box among men, if there is, it is another glass of wine.It's a pity that both Zhao Jinhe and third uncle don't drink alcohol. Zhao Jinhe doesn't drink alcohol because he has no money in the first place!

Later, when I had a little money, I was afraid of drinking and making mistakes, saying things I shouldn't say, and doing things I shouldn't do. Who didn't have an impulsive temper when they were young?

Occasionally, if I make a mistake, as long as I have friends and family to help me back, it’s fine. I’m afraid that someone will report it with malicious intentions!That's the end of it!
In particular, Zhao Jinhe occasionally expresses his opinions from his previous life in words.I don't feel anything in my heart, but if others deliberately distort or quote things out of context, and have so-called bad thoughts or reactionary remarks, they will be in big trouble.The consequences are very serious, not only do you have a big accident, but your family will also be dragged down!

So he simply stopped drinking!Some people say it’s alcohol allergy!
"Jinhe, is your family okay? Are there any difficulties at present?"

The third uncle lit up his cigarette and took a puff, then asked slowly and quietly.

"Third brother, everything is doing well recently. My dad is a little slower than young people in carrying water, but no one in the team talks about him. After all, people his age are not as good as his physical strength, and the level of farm work is not good. , but at least the attitude of labor is good. My mother and a few brothers and sisters are also very good. They do what they have to do, don’t make troubles, work honestly and eat, and don’t participate in other things.”

"In the village or in the cafeteria?"

"It was disbanded at the end of last year, and it lasted less than a year before being disbanded. There are more than a dozen surnames in the more than 30 households in the village. Most of them fled during the chaos. In fact, they are not particularly familiar with each other. As soon as I realized that the food in the canteen was not enough, I quickly and quietly separated and went back to each house to find food for each family. Anyway, our village is also remote, and there are very few people from outside. No one notices it, and no one will report it. "

"Hey, the canteen has just been disbanded in our village. The village that used to be quite wealthy now has many families who cannot afford to eat."

The third uncle's words were a bit heavy, but the truth was the same.There is a growing shortage of food in the cities, how much better can it be?
Now the priority is to protect the city.

"Come on, one big bowl of tea per person. Don't just smoke, drink more water. If you don't have enough food and money, don't get sick!"

Liu Yu sat near the stove, watching the kettle fill up, and quickly made a large bowl of tea for everyone.

"When will the days of not having enough to eat come to an end? Every day I have to make do with water, and at night I am so hungry that I can't sleep. I can still bear to go to work the next day. The factory has also begun to mobilize workers. Those who retired from their jobs in rural areas returned home."

"It has snowed twice before the Chinese New Year this year. According to the elders in the village, the harvest this autumn should be good."

"It's the same in our factory."

Chat as you like.While chatting and drinking tea, the old tea from a few years ago can still be preserved, at least the kind of bitter and floral fragrance is still there.

"Whether you are tired or not, think about the [-] Long March; whether you are tired or not, think about the revolutionary veterans!"

"It's delicious! The food is hot! The steamed buns are also hot."

The table at home is still the same as before, with three and a half legs, and only one stool. Fortunately, there are not many people today, and the big guys can sit on the edge of the kang, but they can barely eat.

Half of a large portion of shredded potatoes was given to the third uncle, saying that he was the third brother, but in fact he was one year younger than Zhao Jinhe!Twenty-somethings are the most hungry.He was given two steamed buns with two or three mouthfuls each, and only a few mouthfuls of shredded potatoes. After eating, he poured the boiling water from the kettle into the bowl and continued to drink the vegetable soup without any diarrhea.

"Hi, I'm satisfied, the most satisfying happiness in a day."

"Ha ha……"

Looking at the mischievous third uncle, Zhao Jinhe and his wife were embarrassed to continue to eat slowly. They ate very slowly and wanted each other to eat more.

"You should eat the rest quickly! I'll get a pot of water and sit on the stove first."

"Jinhe, you are eating more."

"No, I ate it in the factory."

"Did you eat it yesterday?"

"Haha, I drank some this morning, so hurry up and eat it!"

After finishing speaking, before Liu Yu could say anything, he went out with the pot in his hand.

Zhao Jinhe quickly took a few bites and stopped eating.

"Your relationship is really good!"

Liu Sange, who was watching with a smile, couldn't help but be happy for his sister.Whether one's life is good or not is one thing, but whether one is happy or not is more important. Looking at Youqing's appearance of having everything done, he actually thinks his brother-in-law is pretty good!At least it is very suitable for my sister.

"Third brother, what are you talking about?"

Liu Yu's face was full of joy, but he couldn't help complaining.

"Look what's inside the quilt? Put it away quickly. It's all given by my parents!"

In fact, Liu Laosan knew that most of them were brought back by his eldest brother. His parents were reluctant to save them and asked him to bring them to his sister because they were afraid that his sister's family would have a hard time!Liu Sange didn't say anything, and quietly added the personal money he had saved with difficulty in the past.

"Third brother..."

"Okay! Nothing happens, I'm leaving now! I have to go to work tomorrow!"

While waiting for Zhao Jinhe to fill a pot of water and go home, he saw that his wife had finished eating and continued to pack things.

"Brother Zhao? Is there anyone at home?"

A boy of fourteen or fifteen years old shouted outside the door.

"What's the matter?"

Opening the door, Zhao Jinhe looked at him with some puzzlement, looking like Yan Jiefang, the second child of Teacher Yan's family.

"There will be a meeting in the middle courtyard after dinner. At least one person from the family must attend."

"Oh, I see, I'm sorry to trouble you."

The boy ran away as soon as he finished speaking.

He closed the door, took his wife and lay down on the bed, closed his eyes to rest, and continued to rest.

"Is this a meeting? I wonder what's going on? It's probably something big."

"Don't worry about them. It's been a tiring day. Let's take a short rest before going and see more before talking. Anyway, we just entered the courtyard, so try not to get involved in anything."
