"This time I don't owe money to the team, I also use money to buy it." Wang Manyin said.
"If you have money, you can't spend it arbitrarily. Just order less. Why is it that the team points are not enough to feed your family of four?"
"With Uncle Cai, how can I eat? Two kilograms of meat a day is almost enough. It has been a few months since the last year, and this is the first time we have divided the meat. Our family has two kilograms, so give me three kilograms more."
People told him to eat enough, so Wang Manyin didn't ask for so much mutton. He owed the team money, so he didn't have the guts to eat meat.
"You still want to eat two kilograms a day, but two kilograms a month will make me so happy that I can't sleep."
Several people were also very busy. After the purchase, Wang Manyin did not stay to chat, but went home carrying five kilograms of mutton.
"Maodan, Goudan, your dad bought you mutton today and I will make mutton dumplings for you to eat."
Although it is the Dragon Boat Festival, there are no rice dumplings, but the atmosphere is not lacking. The members also obviously prefer the arrangement of the production team dividing the meat and taking a day off.
"Eat dumplings, eat dumplings." Goudanren was more greedy and kept yelling when he heard it.
"Dad, I like to eat whatever you and my mom do." The little cotton-padded jacket is so considerate.
"Man Yin, why did you bring back so much mutton this time?"
"One person shared half a catty. The team finally killed the sheep once, and I could buy them as much as I wanted, so I bought some more. If it hadn't been for the hot weather and I couldn't bear to let them go, buying half a sheep would not be too much for me."
"Man Yin, are we really going to eat dumplings today?"
"That can't be false. I have told the children that if you eat mutton dumplings, you must eat mutton dumplings." Wang Manyin no longer has a good reputation among the adult generation, and it is impossible to affect his image in the eyes of children anymore.
Moreover, children may not be able to remember other things clearly, but if adults do not keep their word, children can remember things for a long time.
"Then I'll start making noodles now?"
"Okay, Lan Hua, you make the noodles, and I'll start chopping the dumpling fillings. Mao Dan, you can take your brother to play in the yard, but don't run too far away."
Wang Manyin cut a third of the mutton directly. It was not easy to eat dumplings once, and it would take two more meals to make once.
At noon, Guan Guan Village is filled with the smell of meat, without exception. At this time, the five-guarantee households are all well taken care of. The village is not only responsible for food, but also has a share of the physical goods. Because it is a collective labor, the manpower is relatively abundant, and
There are dedicated personnel to take care of the lives of the orphaned elderly households with five guarantees in the village.
After dinner, the family lay on the kang for a nap. Wang Manyin told the three people about the origin of the Dragon Boat Festival, and then talked about the various specious legends he had heard, and the various customs and delicacies that Wang Manyin told them.
I won’t go into detail anymore, it’s still very troublesome to draw out the greedy child.
"Man Yin, we have a rest today. Let's go back to Shuangshui Village with Mao Dan and Gou Dan to have a look. Dad and Mom, we miss our children after not seeing them for a while."
Recently, Lanhua has been going back to Shuangshui Village less frequently. Visiting relatives is not that frequent. Even if Lanhua goes back once, it is a burden for the Sun family. Recently, she has only gone back a lot, and when she does, she goes back quickly. Maodan and
Goudan didn't go back with Lanhua because there was no shortage of food for the two of them at home.
"Okay, after finishing the wine I bought last time, I still have a bottle left after I drank it with Brother Mancang. I also cut the remaining mutton in half and brought it over. It's a holiday after all, so we don't come empty-handed." There are no plans for the afternoon.
, since he was going to Shuangshui Village, Wang Manyin was going to find "Hammer King" for a drink.
Sun Yuhou and Lanhua's mother still like cats and dogs very much. As they get older, their peers start to tease Sun. However, Sun Shaoan, because his family is poor, has been unable to find a partner, so the old couple put their love for their juniors aside.
, all poured into Mao Dan and Gou Dan.
"Man Yin, let's go out." Wang Manyin worked steadily for more than a month, and finally convinced the villagers that the second-rate Wang Manyin had changed, and he became more enthusiastic in greeting him.
Although Wang Manyin is a second-rate man, he only likes to go out and hang out, does not like to work, and has not affected other people.
Compared to the real coward in the countryside, who steals other people's chickens, picks unripe fruits from other people's yards, and sleeps with widows, he can be called a completely harmless person.
"Go out and go back to Lanhua's parents' house." Wang Manyin also responded with a smile.
That is to say, Lanhua went back to her parents' home to visit, and she was not in a hurry. She walked with her children while walking, and met acquaintances to chat with. Of course, Lanhua met more acquaintances. Wang Manyin's direction was to Shuangshui Village to go to the Stone Ge Festival.
If you go to an enemy village, all the acquaintances you meet are from Shuangshui Village.
Apart from the villagers of Gu Guan Village and various relatives, the only acquaintances Wang Manyin has are the second-rate people from each village who like to do small businesses. It makes sense that birds of a feather flock together and people flock together.
When we arrived at Sun's house, there were quite a few people there, and the "idealist" Sun Shaoping was also at home, which made us tired of seeing each other.
Wang Manyin was unwilling to work in the fields and was a second-rate man. He left his wife and children in the countryside to endure hardships and wandered around outside all year round.
Sun Shaoping was not much better. He also didn't like to work in the fields. He had to flee the countryside no matter what, leaving his elderly grandmother and parents behind to endure hardships in the countryside and work hard outside all year round.
Wang Manyin thought for a moment and realized that the two of them didn't have the same chemistry. It might be because people of the same sex repel each other.
"Lanhua, Lanhua, is my eldest granddaughter Lanhua here?"
"Mao Dan, let grandma come and give me a hug."
"Here you go, just sit down."
"Wang Manyin, have a cigarette."
"Sister, brother-in-law, you are here."
The attitude of the rest of the Sun family towards Wang Manyin has improved. Wang Manyin did not go out for a month or two, and working in the mountains every day had results. Some people have begun to say that Wang Manyin is a prodigal son who cannot change his fortune.
"You have nothing to do this afternoon? Let's have some drinks together later." Wang Manyin said as he took the homemade cigarettes handed over by Shaoan.
After entering the house and seeing grandma, she found that her condition was still the same as before. She had no major problems but only minor ones. Wang Manyin left the cave dwelling.
Women and children are all in the cave dwellings, chatting about family matters, and all kinds of gossip in the countryside are no less than in the city.
Sun Yuhou didn't like to talk. When he was free, he squatted in the corner and smoked a pot. Sun Shaoping and Sun Shaoping had no common language, and most people couldn't keep up with Sun Shaoping's ideas.
"Shao'an, please take care of the pig feed land matter." Wang Manyin went directly to Sun Shaoan, but the Hammer King was more interesting.
"It's taken back, and all the members have been offended." Sun Shao'an said without curiosity.
"There is no rush in this matter. Although you took back the land and gave it to other production teams, when they are confiscated and criticized, it will prove that you have foresight. At least you did not let the members of the commune work in vain."
