Return to the era: starting from the state-owned hotel

Chapter 207 No object, only a worry

Lin Mingliang's mood suddenly brightened when he successfully saw Yu Hai's expression change.

He has long disliked this Yu Hai.

However, Lin Mingliang was an honest person. Faced with an old man like Yu Hai who was smooth-tongued and liked to talk sweetly but never speak his mind, Lin Mingliang had no ability to resist.

It was the master who had to take action, and with one move he strangled Yu Hai's lifeline - his salary.

You go to work, if not for money, why else?

Anyway, that's what Lin Mingliang thought.

Before leaving, he saw Su Qingfeng moving quickly and couldn't help but be curious, "Brother Su, what do you want to do today? Are you in such a hurry?"

Su Qingfeng packed the food quickly and said, "There are a few little ones at home who want to catch cicada monkeys. I am going to bring a flashlight and take them to catch them at night."

Speaking of which, in Su Qingfeng's impression, the place that likes eating cicadas the most is probably from Jiaodong.

But the Black Province doesn't like it that much.

It's just that these days, everyone is short of food, clothing, and protein. Children will catch and eat grasshoppers, let alone cicada monkeys.

In comparison, cicada monkeys still have higher nutritional value.

"Caught the cicada..." When Lin Mingliang heard this, he seemed to remember his childhood memories and felt a little envious.

When I was young, I was ignorant and just wanted to find a partner, get married, have children, and have my own family.

But about the object...

If you don't have a partner, then there may only be one worry, and that is why you don't have a partner.

If you have a partner, then there will be a lot of troubles.

Marriage, betrothal gift, childbirth, tuition and fees...

These are all worries...

I heard that Su Qingfeng was getting married soon.

Lin Mingliang patted Su Qingfeng's shoulder and encouraged him with a look that Su Qingfeng couldn't understand, "Cherish it..."

What the hell is this bleak tone?

Su Qingfeng was filled with questions.

But he quickly shook off this thought, and got on the bicycle with Su Yuantie's expression of hesitation.

Another bumpy road.

When they finally arrived at the old house, Su Qingfeng crossed her legs and got off the bicycle.

Su Yuantie got out of the back seat with a face full of pain. When he walked, he seemed to have a strange feeling.

For the first time, Su Yuantie was glad that he was a lame, so that no one would find out that his balls hurt.

Su Qingfeng stood behind him and touched his head. He felt that everyone seemed a little strange today.

Lin Mingliang is, and so is Su Yuantie.

When Su Qingfeng came in, the family was still preparing meals.

In fact, it is already too late to have dinner in rural areas at this time.

But who said Su Qingfeng was the chef of a state-owned hotel?

Even if it wasn't for the food he brought back, there was no reason why everyone was eating, so Su Qingfeng was eating alone?
Not to mention that Su Qingfeng is now the grandson of the old lady and the old man's heart.

Even though Su Yuantie and Su Yuan had just returned home, they were warmly received by the two elders.

But why the enthusiasm?
It's not because he's not mature enough.

Emotions are all about getting along.

What Su Qingfeng brought back today was a box of pork ribs, stewed beans and leeks.

There was a little shredded taro left, but it had to be hot to taste, otherwise it wouldn't be as popular as the leek box.

Sure enough, Su Qingfeng heated up the food and when he brought it out, several children were swallowing their saliva on the table.

Su Qingfeng took the water handed to him by the old lady. He just rode all the way and his throat was a little dry, so he poured it into his mouth.

As a result, I almost choked after taking a sip.

This old lady!
How much sugar was put in!

齁 sweet 齁 sweet.

Su Qingfeng's face turned ferocious for a moment.

Su Yuantie noticed this scene and was a little curious, "What kind of water is it? Is it so bad to drink?"

Su Qingfeng sighed, "It's not that it tastes bad..."

Just put too much sugar...

He looked at Su Yuantie, his bad thoughts popping up again, "Are you going to drink?"

Su Yuantie didn't notice anything. He took the bowl and drank it completely without leaving any trace behind.

This time it was Su Qingfeng's turn to be shocked.

He asked tentatively, "How do you feel?"

Su Yuantie thought about it and said with satisfaction, "It's quite sweet and delicious."

Ok.

Su Qingfeng discovered that in this era, people who don't like sweets are the real outliers.

After everyone gathered, the whole family started chattering lively.

Su Qingfeng gave the old man a piece of ribs and said with a smile, "Master, do you have a thin bamboo pole? Lend it to me."

The old man knows carpentry and has been exposed to things like bamboo.

He did have the thin bamboo pole, but he didn't understand it.

I saw the old man looking outside and frowning, "What are you two planning to do?"

Su Qingfeng smiled and said, "You caught the cicada. Not only is that stuff nutritious, but it's also delicious when fried in oil and sprinkled with some salt."

The old lady frowned and said, "I still need to use oil. How much does it cost to dispose of it?"

As she said that, she turned her head and said, "Old man, get one for each of their brothers. If you don't catch them a few times, they will be talking about this all day long."

As soon as these words came out, everyone at the dinner table looked sideways.

Even Su Sanyang was a little stunned.

He remembered that when he was a child, the old lady was not like this.

Could it be that...the favor of the other generation, the favor of the other generation...is the principle?
Qian Feng and Su Qingfeng looked at each other. He, who had been locked in his room and wrote arithmetic problems all day, couldn't help but smile broadly.

Even his pale cheeks were slightly rosy.

Even Su Qingfeng could easily detect the excitement in his eyes.

But before she finished speaking, Su Limei spoke again, "Xiao Feng, don't go out to play with your brothers at night. At such a young age, what can you do? You will still cause trouble for your brothers. "

"Now before going to bed at night, you should study more. Mom will give you a hot cup of goat's milk to refresh your brain."

Qian Feng's eyes dimmed little by little when he heard this chatter, which was full of good things for him.

Su Qingfeng was speechless.

"Second aunt, what the hell can you learn from just one or two grades? If you ask Xiaofeng to learn it again and again, it's just repetitive stuff. If you ask me, you might as well let him hang out with us."

Su Limei was dissatisfied in her heart, but it was Su Qingfeng who spoke. She didn't dare to show her face at all. She could only sneer, "Don't I want Xiaofeng to study more? Otherwise, why would he take the test if someone can score [-] points? Not yet?" Su Qingfeng smiled, "Second aunt, can you pass the exam when you study?"

Su Limei was angry in her heart, and her face became even more sarcastic, "I...I haven't read the book."

To be precise, Su Limei didn't like reading. After reading it for a few days, she became disinclined to read.

"Second aunt hasn't read, so it's better not to give guidance casually. The job of studying needs to be handled by professionals. If you think your cousin is not good at it, why don't you go to school and ask the teachers, and ask them what they think your cousin can learn. Ok."

After Su Qingfeng finished speaking, he looked at Qian Yuan who had been silent and smiled slightly, "What do you think, second uncle?"

What can Qian Yuan say?
Can he say that he is exhausted from going to work during the day and doesn’t care about anything when he gets home?

Anyway, it is better for children to study at home than to go out and play.

But facing Su Qingfeng, he immediately changed his tone.

"I think it's good to go out and have some fun. There's a saying, balance work with rest, haha..."

When Su Limei heard the words, she became completely silent.

Su Qingfeng and Qian Feng looked at each other and gave a high-five under the table, quietly.

Qian Feng happily swung his legs in mid-air.

Shake a few times.

After dinner, a bunch of children ran out of the old house.

The older ones are like Su Qingfeng and Su Yuangang, the younger ones are Su Yuantie, and the younger ones are Su Fengxia, Su Jiqiu and Qian Feng.

As for the eldest sister Su Yingchun, because she is about to get married, the old lady is afraid of the dark. She will get scars on her face if she bumps into her.

In order to catch cicadas, Su Qingfeng prepared several plastic bags and plastic bottles.

There is also a super artifact-transparent glue.

When catching cicadas, you catch the nymph stage.

At this time, the cicada monkey appears golden, a bit like a golden monkey, so it is named cicada monkey.

At this time, the cicada monkey has just emerged from the soil. It needs to climb up the tree along the trunk and study the way of flying.

Su Qingfeng adopted a two-pronged approach, intending to divide a group of people and trap the monkeys with bamboo poles on the tree trunks.

Another group of people used transparent glue to wrap around the tree trunks to stick to the cicada monkeys.

Compared with the common bamboo poles, Su Qingfeng had a hunch that his second method would become a great weapon for catching cicada monkeys.

In the dark night, only the light and shadow of the oil lamp in the window was revealed. At this time, everyone was awake, but in order to save money, some people simply did not light the oil lamp and stayed in the yard to enjoy the shade in the dark.

Su Qingfeng started to shake people around.

"Tiger head! Gangzi! Xiaohua! Go catch the monkey!"

As he spoke, Su Qingfeng held two flashlights in his hands and held another in his mouth. It looked like a big walking light bulb.

After being called like this by him, the originally quiet village slowly began to come alive.

Many children were squatting at the entrance of the fence. When they saw Su Qingfeng approaching, they shouted, "Brother Qingfeng, can I go with you to catch the cicada monkey?"

Su Qingfeng took a look.

Hey.

Still a little girl.

He joked, "Okay, just don't make me cry."

The little girl immediately stood up and said, "I'm not afraid. I can even crush a cabbage caterpillar to death."

Ok……

Rural children these days are really tough.

Don't underestimate her just because she's a girl.

Hutou stood next to Su Qingfeng and said in a sullen voice, "Brother Qingfeng, we will go wherever you say. I will listen to you!"

Su Qingfeng thought for a while, but he didn't dare to go to the mountain with so many children. If things really happened, it would be a big trouble.

"I remember there were several pear trees in the village."

Hutou frowned, "The fruits produced by those pear trees are sour and astringent. What's so delicious about them?"

The girl next to him glanced at him and said, "Stupid! We are not going to eat pears, we are here to catch cicadas."

Ma Ligang and Ma Xiaohua stood in the crowd without speaking.

Ever since Ma Chenggong's accident, the two of them have lost a lot of presence in the eyes of the villagers.

But at a casual glance, Su Qingfeng discovered that these two children, apart from being a little thinner and a little darker, were in good spirits.

Even better than when Ma Chenggong was around.

He thought of the gossip the village aunt said when he passed by the village.

Since Ma Chenggong disappeared, Cai Xiaoqin has been living in a haze every day. She has three meals a day, just one mouthful, and when working, she either gets scratched by the sickle or gets into arguments with other gossipy girls.

This means that the Ma family is now supported by two children.

Even if Ma Chenggong dies, his reputation in the village is not very good, but these two children are hard-working and have a bright eye, so even the aunts find it difficult to say unpleasant things.

Su Qingfeng thought for a while and reminded these half-grown children, "When you catch cicadas, you can just have fun and catch as many as you can. Not only is this stuff nutritious, but it is also accepted by the town's purchasing station." .”

What?
The town also bought cicada monkeys? !
This kind of thing that can be seen everywhere in the summer can actually be sold for money? !

This reflects the information gap.

Children who have lived in the countryside for a long time would never have known that cicada monkeys could be sold for money if Su Qingfeng, a person who worked in the town, hadn't reminded them.

The key is, no one in the family knows about it now!
They can definitely save this money.

Especially for the children who were living a difficult life in the village. Summer was a time of drought. When they heard that cicada monkeys could still be sold for money, they were so happy that they didn’t know what to say.

Ma Ligang and Ma Xiaohua looked at each other and were stunned.

They thought that because of Ma Chenggong's relationship, Su Qingfeng would be prejudiced against the two of them.

But now it seems... they are worrying too much.

No wonder that although Su Qingfeng made a lot of money, people in the village were jealous at most, and not many people really said anything about his life.

Su Qingfeng relied on his long hands and held up the bamboo pole to set it on the tree. His movements were a little unfamiliar at first, but after a while, he got used to it and quickly found the feeling, and he was accurate every time.

Su Fengxia and Su Jiqiu were digging small holes in the ground at first to see if any cicada monkeys could come out. However, they soon discovered that with their short hands and short legs, they might as well help Su Qingfeng pretend to know. The monkey comes quickly.

As a top student, Qian Feng was born with the ability to study and be patient.

After observing carefully for a while, he took over the important task from Su Qingfeng and started applying transparent tape.

During the night, a group of children's voices of wonder could be heard one after another.

At first everyone just wanted to catch more cicada monkeys.

Later, several of the older ones got angry. It was like a competition, one was faster than the other.

This activity continued until late at night. No matter how cool the night wind was, Su Qingfeng couldn't help but fall asleep.

He held several children in his arms, and when he saw that they were still reluctant to leave, he dragged them home.

He could see it.

Children's nature is skin!
After a group of children left, a graceful figure slowly emerged from behind the shadow of a tree...
