Han Mingcui said, "what else can I do? I want money, pension money, ten yuan a year with one mouth, plus 50 Jin of bract rice. You said that if you have sons and grandchildren, how can you manage the old-age pension of married daughters? "

Han Mingcui is also a conservative. In her heart, she thinks that providing for the aged is a matter for her son and grandson. She shouldn't ask for help from her daughter.

Han Mingxiu said: "second aunt and second uncle are so stingy. How can they give her money? Don't say it's so old, but I won't bring her a dime. "

Han Mingcui said, "you can't guess right. Although the second aunt and the second uncle were stingy, they still didn't hold the milk and gave in."

"What? You said they agreed to give the old milkman money? " Han Mingxiu's eyes widened and his mouth opened so fast that he could put an egg into it.

Because she really didn't believe that she could ask for pension money from her second aunt and her second uncle.

In sun aotun, all the men, women, old and young in man Tun add up. The most stingy person is her second aunt and father. To what extent?

For example, in the summer, her second uncle was never willing to wear shoes. He always walked barefoot all over the village, and felt that it was too expensive to wear shoes; The garden at home has never been willing to grow vegetables. It only grows grain. The family doesn't eat oil and water all the year round. It's said that even when they poop, they always leave half a bubble for fear that they will empty their stomachs and starve

How can a person who is so stingy promise to blow up the old money from him in a year?

Han mingcui'er coughed for a moment and said in a low voice, "I've got the handle on ER Gu. I don't know whether what she said is true or false. She said that when Er Gu was a girl at home, she got on well with a clerk from the city. She said that she had nose and eyes. She also said a lot of... Embarrassing words..."

It may be that those words are too difficult to say, such as getting together with other people, or having children. Anyway, Han Mingcui has no good intention to tell her sister.

"Isn't Xiao Dongzi of the second aunt's family going to have his wife soon? It's said that such a thing happened at home. Whose daughter dares to marry them? The second aunt was so angry with her milk that she cried and cried, but she couldn't help it. "

"So the second aunt and the second uncle finally agreed to her?"

"Yes, I've agreed. If I don't agree, how can I deal with it? You don't look at the milk like that. If they dare not, I think she can let xiaodongzi be a bachelor all her life!"

Han Mingxiu listens and smacks his mouth: it seems that the old lady is very angry. She is obviously carried away by hatred. In the future, she should be careful. As the saying goes, those who are not afraid to rush, those who are not afraid to win, and those who are not afraid to die are afraid. Now the old lady belongs to those who even give up her life. It's not easy to provoke

"Well, the water is boiling."

Just thinking about it, the elder sister lifted the lid of the pot and said, interrupting Han Mingxiu's thoughts.

Han Mingxiu looked up and saw that her elder sister had brought over the small pot of dumplings and was ready to put dumplings in the pot. "Xiuer, how many can you eat? I'll give you a few, or the rest won't taste good. "

Han Mingxiu said, "ten of them. If you pick out the shriveled ones for me, I'll be willing to eat them."

"You, people like to eat dumplings with big stuffing. You are the only one who wants to eat shriveled dumplings." Han Mingcui nagged a few words, but according to what her sister said, she chose ten dumplings with shriveled stuffing and put them in the pot. She boiled and put them in a daze to avoid sticking to the pot.

A few minutes later, when the dumplings were cooked, Han Mingcui fished them up with a fence and asked Han Mingxiu to take a bowl of chopsticks and garlic sauce. She carried the dumplings to the Kang Table in the room.

"You eat first. I'll give you a bowl of dumpling soup. The original soup turns into raw food. It's best to eat dumplings and drink dumpling soup." After putting the hot dumplings on the table, Han Mingcui went to the kitchen to give Han mingxiusheng dumpling soup.

Sitting on the Kang Table, Han Mingxiu picked up a dumpling and bit it with garlic sauce. Tut Tut, it's sour and delicious. It's delicious! Even the dumpling skin is delicious.

After all, it's the wheat flour that we grow at home. We can't get rid of any pesticide or chemical fertilizer. This kind of flour can't be compared with those bleached with bleach in later generations.

The elder sister came in with a bowl of steaming dumpling soup. She put the dumpling soup on the table, then turned around and went into the kitchen, bringing out a plate of spiced quail eggs and a plate of smoked rabbit meat.

Han Mingxiu saw the plate of smoked rabbit meat and said strangely, "elder sister, where did you get the rabbit meat?"

Han Mingcui said: "it was brought by elder brother Gao. It came on the 28th day. At that time, I was sauced with spiced quail eggs. By the way, I also sauced the two rabbits. During the new year, we ate one, and the other, this one, I'll keep it for you."

Han Mingxiu picked up a rabbit leg and put it in a bowl. While eating, he said, "it's so difficult for big brother's family to get two rabbits. Why don't you keep them for yourself?"

"That's what I said. I didn't want to take him, but he threw the rabbit down and left. He couldn't even pull it. What do you think I can do?" The elder sister was also annoyed.

Han Mingxiu said: "forget it, just send it. We'll find him to work when spring comes. Just give him more food."

"Well, I think so." Han mingcui'er agreed with the proposal, "elder brother Gao doesn't work foolishly. What he does is like what he does. It's not a waste of money to hire him to work."

Han Mingxiu laughs and sees her elder sister praising Gao guangbin. She suddenly remembers the gossip between them in the village.

In fact, she thinks that elder sister and Gao guangbin are a good match, but she doesn't know what elder sister thinks.

However, the elder sister has just settled down. It's better not to mention these problems to disturb her mind. It's safer for her to think about this problem when she is mature and experienced again.

After dinner, the elder sister has already helped her to boil the foot washing water. Han Mingxiu takes the water back to her room, washes her face with hot water, then washes her feet in the foot basin with the water after washing her face. Finally, she climbs onto the Kang and sits at the Kang Table and begins to write to Huo Jianfeng.

That is to tell him that he has come back from the second sister's house, and tell him not to think about her. If he wants to write to her, write it.

In addition, he also told him that he had someone buy him two sets of thread clothes, trousers and socks that don't need tickets at the supply and marketing agency. They all sent them to him by mail. They told him to wear them first, and she didn't need to save them. When they were worn out or worn out, she would buy them for him.

(of course, these things are bought in the Soviet Union. There are enough for them to wear for five or eight years.)

We can imagine how happy and self satisfied Huo Jianfeng should be when he received this letter. He must show off with his brothers with his clothes and trousers, so as to satisfy his heart that he will never stop abusing single dogs.

You can also imagine how envious Zhang he and Ma Lijun were when they saw the thread clothes and trousers she had posted.

By the way, she promised to help Zhang he and Ma Lijun find a girlfriend, but she didn't have a suitable person on hand, so she entrusted it to her aunt tomorrow

After Han Mingxiu came back, he wanted to live a low-key life and live his life quietly.

However, she had been watched by the team leader for a long time. The day after she came back, the team leader went to her house to talk with her about leading the villagers to raise pigs together.

"Xiu, our village has 102 pigs this year with production teams. It depends on you what kind of pigs you can raise." The captain said with great expectation.

Han Mingxiu Khan dada said, "Captain, in fact, I don't know much about pig raising. Last year, it was just right for a blind cat to touch a dead mouse, so I raised it and fattened it. It's not sure whether I can raise it well this year."

"Hey, don't be modest. Your two pigs have all been seen. They are so well raised. What can you be modest about? You don't have to say whether you can raise it or not. Just take all the people in the village and raise them according to your last year's raising law. " The captain said.

Han Mingxiu a listen, in the heart secretly cry bitterly, she last year also feed those two pigs hundreds of stick rice stick? And the older cabbages, crab shells, scallops, watermelon peels, apple kernels... Are all nutritious things. What can I ask her to feed this year?

Oh, by the way, she also has potatoes, sweet potatoes and blind corn that she picked up in the field after the autumn harvest last year. It's probably enough to feed her own two pigs, but other people's pigs have to be raised according to the methods she saw in the book
