"Ah Wen, hurry up and eat meat! You melon, if you don't eat such delicious fat meat, why should you eat cabbage!" Li Dezhong urged Li Wen from the side.

Li Wen didn't touch the pork very much. He hadn't eaten the hot and sour cabbage cooked by his mother for a long time. He always ate cabbage and shredded potatoes at the dinner table.

"Second uncle, you and me, please eat more. I didn't like the fat meat in Xiangdao. Now when I eat meat, I only eat lean meat.

I haven’t eaten the hot and sour cabbage made by my mother for several years. Now I just enjoy this bite. I can eat three big bowls of white porridge with this hot and sour cabbage." Li Wen said with a smile.

"Oh my God, you actually don't like eating such delicious fat meat? What kind of life are you living in Xiangdao!" Li Dezhong was so shocked that his mouth opened.

At this time, not only Li Dezhong was frightened, but Li Deyou and Liu Yuanchao also looked shocked.

"Our country is undergoing great construction in recent years to catch up with imperialism. I believe that in ten or twenty years our country will be able to achieve the freedom to eat meat." Because there were outsiders, Li Wen did not explain too much about life in Xiang Island.

[As I write this, I want to complain. In recent years, there have been many videos on which so-called experts recommend not eating meat and asking everyone to follow the path of vegetarianism.

What I want to say is, these experts are really experts! How long has it been since the people of China realized the freedom to eat meat? Even now, many families cannot afford to eat meat every day.

In the noodle-eating areas in the north, modern society has developed. In our small county, as far as I know, many families cannot eat meat for one meal a week. It’s not that they can’t afford it, but that they can’t bear it. The main reason is that their family circumstances don’t allow it.]

"Yes, my life has gradually improved a lot in the past few years. At least I am not hungry all the time like before.

I believe that the country will get better and better, and I hope that, like Awen said, we will be able to eat fat meat every meal in ten or twenty years." Li Deyou said with emotion.

"Okay, let's clink a glass and wish that our country will become stronger and stronger and that our people's lives will become better and better." As they spoke, everyone raised their glasses and clinked them.

After eating, Li Wen did not see Liu Yuanchao and the two off, but gave the flashlight to them to go back.

In the evening, Wang Chunmei deliberately cleaned up Li Wen's original room and put on the new bedding that she had kept for her son.

The heated kang was so hot that Li Wen felt very comfortable sleeping in the bed at first, but when he fell asleep, his back and buttocks felt extremely hot. He quickly leaned against the wall and slept like this all night.

"Oh oh oh!"

In the early morning, Li Wen was awakened by the sound of roosters crowing.

"Oh! It's more comfortable to sleep on the fire bed!" Li Wen opened his eyes and sat up and stretched.

But as soon as he sat up, he quickly got into bed.

"My mother! It's really too cold. How could I forget that this is my hometown and there is no heating in the house." Li Wen curled up in the bed and shivered.

The winter temperature in Qin Province can reach as low as minus 20 degrees Celsius, and this period of time ago was the coldest time of the year. Even in the room during this period, the temperature was at least ten degrees below zero.

Li Wen still remembers the winter when he was first reborn. Except for errands, eating and going to the toilet, he spent most of the day under the covers.

In fact, he is not like this alone, most people in the countryside are like this. In winter, there is no life in the fields, and everyone sleeps under the quilt all day long.

Another advantage of this is that it can save food and people will not go hungry. Moreover, the northerners gave such a move a very vivid name, Cat Winter.

After warming up for a while, Li Wen got dressed under the quilt.

Because it was too cold, Li Wen put on another pair of thermal pants.

Fortunately, Li Wen came back this time and brought a few extra pairs of warm pants to put in the space, otherwise there would be no cotton pants for him to wear at home.ωωw..net

After getting dressed, Li Wen first opened the curtains and looked out the window. Only then did the sky outside the room become dim.

"Are you up early?"

Li Wen got off the kang and put on his shoes. He picked up the watch on the kang and put it on and looked at it. It was already half past eight in the morning.

"Oh! I got up a little early. Forget it, I won't go to sleep." Li Wen has a problem, that is, he rarely gets on the kang after getting dressed.

In winter, it's almost nine o'clock at dawn here in my hometown. It's too cold and nothing happens, so it's useless to get up too early. Everyone usually sleeps until dawn.

After tidying up his clothes, Li Wen opened the door to the room.

I looked around and saw that the yard was quiet at this time, except for the crowing of chickens outside the yard.

Li Wen looked at the backyard. The old lady's room was brightly lit, and there were many people inside.

"Awen is up?"

Before Li Wen could speak, the door to the old lady's room opened, and Wang Chunmei came out and greeted her.

"Mom, what are you doing in my mother-in-law's house?" Li Wen asked doubtfully.

"Your mother-in-law's house has a heater, and your father and I tied brooms in your mother-in-law's room." Wang Chunmei explained.

"That's it!"

Li Wen understood that hard-working farmers who have something to do and earn money will naturally not get up late.

Walking into the old lady's room, the stove in the center of the room was burning red, and the room was warm. Li Deyou was sitting on a mat on the floor, holding a rope in his mouth and tying a broom.

"Po, good morning!"

"Dad, why are you getting up so early! Pay more attention to rest, you can't make enough money." Li Wen looked at the four brooms piled in front of his father. He must have gotten up very early.

"Wen Wazi, wake up!" The old lady, wearing reading glasses, was leaning against the wall, pulling on the soles of her shoes, and asked with a smile.

"Po, it's almost nine o'clock, I can't sleep. It's still a little dark today. You hurt your eyes while doing needlework, so take a rest!" Li Wen greeted.

"It's okay, there's a little sun." The old lady pointed to the incandescent light bulb above her head.

Li Wen knew that the old man had worked hard all his life and could not rest idle, so he stopped persuading him.

"Old man! Your mother and I couldn't fall asleep until after five o'clock. We were talking about tying a broom brigade with a subsidy of nearly 10 cents! Who has a grudge against money?" Li Deyou let go of the rope in his mouth and muttered.

"Your father and I have nothing to do. By the way, Awen, what do you want to eat in the morning?" Wang Chunmei asked with a smile.

"Mom, I ate some batter this morning, so I made some hot white radish for the vegetables. We have guests at home, so you are frying some spicy spicy rice pudding to put on the buns. I am craving this one the most." Li Wen said with a smile.

"Okay, as long as my baby likes it, mom will cook it for you." Wang Chunmei could no longer reach Li Wen's head and could only pat Li Wen's shoulder.

It was getting late, so Wang Chunmei washed her face with water and hurried to the kitchen to cook.

"Awen, is this broom easy to sell in Xiangdao? Don't accept any favors just to help your family. Favor debts are the hardest to repay." Li Deyou was tying the broom while chatting with his son.

"It's easy to sell! This thing is a consumable product and can be used in every household.

It’s just that many places in the country are exporting this stuff. Competition among suppliers is fierce and the price has been driven down. Now it’s not as high as it used to be.” Li Wen replied with a smile.

"As long as it's easy to sell, it's more expensive than ours even if it's cheap. This broom costs at most 30 cents at the supply and marketing cooperative in our county, but no one is willing to buy it here.

Since this thing can be exported, the members of our village have become very happy. Everyone can't wait to sit at home and tie a broom every day, it's all money!

Moreover, the work is easy, and you don’t get the sun. If you work harder every month, you can earn twenty or thirty yuan, which is no worse than the people in the city who eat on the food supply." Li Deyou lowered his head and tied the broom, while enjoying himself.

Hehe said.

"Dad, stop tying this broom after you finish tying it. After breakfast, I guess Murakami, my fourth master, and others will come to visit." Li Wen looked at the broom that was about to be completed.
