Looking at Uncle Li's expression of doubt about life, Yi Chuanzong was a little embarrassed.
"Hey! Uncle Li, what do you think? The city is slightly better than the village, but that means the wages are slightly higher and the rations are about the same! Do you still expect to treat everyone to meat?"
"I didn't buy this meat. It was a wild boar I shot from the mountains. I brought four large pieces of meat last night, which should be enough. We are going to buy some cabbage now, stew the cabbage with some meat for everyone to eat.
Everyone has a taste for meat."
Does it sound true?
Uncle Li smacked his lips, the people in the village were even more hungry for meat.
A day's work costs about ten work points. The harvest in the past three years has not been good. One work point is about 15 cents. How can we only eat meat with this amount of money? It's not bad if we can eat!
Even if you have meat stamps, you won’t want to eat meat. Those food stamps and meat stamps in the city are all sold by people in the village!
"It doesn't matter if you can get a taste of meat. You can live well in the city! Are you still in the mood to hunt wild boars in the mountains?"
Uncle Li was no exception when it came to Yi Chuanzong's hunting of wild boars. Only people in the village knew how terrifying his power was, especially when he went crazy. Otherwise, how could he scare the deputy director of the village so hard that he couldn't even open the door?
Dare to come out?
Yi Chuanzong smiled and nodded, "It's okay, it's okay. I can eat enough every day. There is no problem in supporting myself."
The amount of food he eats is calculated according to the living habits in the village. One pound of stick noodles is seven cents, and one pound can be steamed with 1.4 or 1.5 pounds of steamed buns, which is about 17 or 8 pounds a day, and nearly 40 yuan a month.
.
Uncle Li was startled when he heard this. Are you full?
In the past, Yi Chuanzong worked a lot in the village, earning 30 work points a day and more than 40 cents a day.
This kind of salary is enough for him to eat half full. If he wants to eat full, it will cost him thirty yuan less per bite.
He couldn't help but said with envy: "It's better to be in the city! It's also because you have a good physique. If we didn't, we definitely wouldn't be able to earn so much."
"You don't eat as much as I do!" Yi Chuanzong rolled his eyes, "Let's go shopping first."
After saying that, he wandered forward again, and Sister Hua followed him obediently.
"Where will we do it after we buy it?"
Yi Chuanzong thought for a moment and said: "Use my water urn. That urn is definitely big enough. After we finish shopping later, I will go to the village chief's house and call Lao Ma, who used to make big pot rice in the village, to cook.
He's good at this."
The urn in his house is over one meter in diameter and over one meter high. Even if it is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom, the volume is larger than a cube with a side of one meter. It can hold a ton of water, and one person can eat more than half of the urn.
The kilograms of vegetables and soup are definitely enough.
Sister Hua nodded slowly.
The two quickly arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative in the village. The supply and marketing cooperative here was not as luxurious as in the city. It was a small room three meters wide and five meters long. It was a bit like a small convenience store in later generations. It was full of some
Inside, a thin old man wearing reading glasses stretched his head and looked outside.
"It turns out it's your kid who's back. Why, the city is so full of everything but there are still some things missing. As for asking you to come to me to buy it?"
"Isn't it convenient to come here in the city? Buy half a catty of soy sauce and five catties of salt."
After Yi Chuanzong finished speaking, Sister Hua handed over the small glass bottle.
Lao He didn't take it. He was a little stunned when he heard Yi Chuanzong's words. He stretched his head and turned his ears sideways, "How much salt do you want?"
"Five pounds, hurry up, we have something to do later!"
Yi Chuanzong urged, counted a few bills and handed them over.
Lao He's face became very excited, and he reminded: "A pound of salt is only 14 cents, are you sure you want five pounds? What do you want to eat?"
Yi Chuanzong shook the money in his hand and said, "Half a pound of soy sauce costs four cents, which adds up to a total of seventy-four cents. That's right, hurry up."
Although there is salt on the pork at home, for a thousand people to eat, they still bring soup. One person only needs five or six grams of salt in a meal, so what he bought is not too much.
Lao He took the money and counted it, but he could only put it in a bottle, still mumbling, "Why did you buy so much salt?"
"Here, here it is."
Yi Chuanzong took it and smiled, "Go to my house for dinner at two noon."
They turned around and bought another three kilograms of oil and some Sichuan peppercorns, star anise, and dried chili peppers at the grain and oil store. Sister Hua didn't have many work points. Fortunately, he exchanged a bunch of tickets on the black market last time.
The two brought their things home. Yi Chuanzong said with a smile: "I'm going to the village chief's house. You can pack the things you brought at home. We will leave after dinner in the afternoon. It's not even warmer in the city."
Where to go."
"good!"
Sister Hua responded and then hesitated to speak.
Yi Chuanzong saw this and asked curiously: "What's wrong?"
Sister Hua said hesitantly: "There is something at home, do you think you should take it with you?"
Yi Chuanzong became even more curious, "What is it?"
Sister Hua bit her lip and said, "It's a treasure left by Tian Haiwang's family." She actually didn't want to mention this person, but that thing was very precious and she didn't want to hide it.
Yi Chuanzong looked stunned and said directly: "Didn't you give it to your uncle at first?"
Sister Hua shook her head, "It's not convenient to hand over that thing. I didn't know what to do so I hid it."
"Where are you hiding?"
Sister Hua pointed towards Yi Chuanzong's room, "I hid under the bed where you sleep."
Yi Chuanzong looked stunned, hiding here, it was not an accident in his mind, Sister Hua was focused on him.
But he went through it at home and found all the money in the rice vat, but he didn't find any treasure.
"Let's go in and take a look. You are so awesome! When did you hide it?"
Sister Hua tilted her little head and thought for a moment, "It's been two years."
After burning paper for Tian Haiwang for three years, she hid it when no one came to look for it.
"It's right here. A hole was dug here and then buried."
Sister Hua pointed to the bottom of Yi Chuanzong's bed. There was no difference in the color of the soil there, but the height was a little different, and there were pieces of stone underneath.
Yi Chuanzong's mouth opened slightly. He really couldn't find it hidden in such a place.
His ancestors did not have any high-ranking officials, so he dug holes in his house because he was mentally ill. He wanted to tear down the house and build another one!
"Shall we take it away?" Sister Hua asked quietly.
Yi Chuanzong's expression changed for a while, and he leaned into her ear and asked softly: "What can't you even give away?"
Sister Hua's little hands kneaded each other on her chest, then she raised her toes and whispered into his ear.
Yi Chuanzong's eyes suddenly widened, this thing was really hot.
"How deep did you dig?"
Sister Hua gave him a strange look and said: "I didn't dig it. The village took away all the iron from the house. The soil at home is relatively solid. You dug it, about one meter, right? I also piled stones with it.
Get up and protect yourself."
"one meter?"
Yi Chuanzong nodded lightly. This depth was enough. Even if someone ransacked a house, it was rare to dig three feet into the ground. It was considered relatively safe.
His house is located on a relatively high ground by a small river. It is not suitable for building a house, and the land cannot be dug so deep. If the scenic spot is developed, he can get information.
After thinking for a while, Yi Chuanzong said softly: "Let it be underground. Let's pretend it doesn't exist. If I forget to take it out in twenty years, you can remind me then."
Sister Hua nodded slightly, "I know, I will remember it."
After saying that, she looked at Yi Chuanzong with soft eyes. If it hadn't been for this treasure, she wouldn't have thought of selling herself to Xiangyang Village, and she wouldn't have met Yi Chuanzong.
Yi Chuanzong looked at these eyes filled with his own phoenix eyes, and his heart instantly burst with satisfaction.
He stroked Sister Hua's left cheek with one hand, then kissed the right cheek, "Your eyes are so beautiful, I just like you looking at me like this, and I will come here for ten minutes every day from now on."
The smile on Sister Hua's face bloomed like an epiphyllum, and it was imprinted in people's hearts in an instant.
Yi Chuanzong's scalp was numb from the electric shock, "I went to the village chief's house. We only have meat but no vegetables." After saying that, he immediately fell asleep. If he stayed, he was afraid that he would not be able to control himself.
Sister Hua looked at his embarrassed appearance and smiled. In the past, when he was stupid, he dared to keep staring at her, but now that he is better, he has become more restrained.
Although the two ways of expression are different, she can feel Yi Chuanzong's love, and the current way is more interesting.
She walked towards the house below in a happy mood. Sister Hua's smile stayed on her face, and she looked forward to her future life even more.
On the khaki path in the countryside, Yi Chuanzong was running quickly.
Originally, he wanted to ride a bicycle to the village chief's house to show off, but Sister Hua's eyes were so flirtatious that he forgot about the bicycle for a while.
Those pair of phoenix eyes with unique charm had such a killing power on him that they couldn't help but come twice last night, and again this morning. He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to control himself if he wasn't covered with a quilt so early in the morning.
"Dang Dang Dang!"
Unknowingly, he had arrived at the village chief's house, and Yi Chuanzong knocked three times on the door.
"Who?"
A strong man's voice came from the courtyard.
"it's me!"
Yi Chuanzong shouted softly, believing that the village chief would remember his voice.
Sure enough, after two seconds of silence, the sound of walking could be heard in the yard.
Soon the door opened, and inside was a round-faced man wearing a coat and wide trousers. Although his face was a little yellow, there were not many wrinkles. He looked to be in his forties.
Village Chief Fang's round face was full of smiles, "When did you come back? I heard about you when I was watching a movie yesterday."
Yi Chuanzong raised his eyebrows and said, "The projectionist and I didn't want to deal with him when he came back last night. What did he say to you?"
Village Chief Fang replied directly: "I just asked him a few questions while watching a movie, and he didn't seem to want to mention you." Then a hint of ambiguity appeared on his face, "You came back this time to pick up your wife and go to the city.
?”
Yi Chuanzong smiled sarcastically, "Yes, I don't worry about leaving her in the village. Life in the city is better, and I can take care of her." Then he said with some complaint, "Why didn't you tell us earlier about our affairs?
I?"
Village Chief Fang nodded with satisfaction. He mistook the smile on Yi Chuanzong's face for shyness, and laughed in his heart. The young man was still a little embarrassed, but the beautiful widow was not embarrassed at first.
But when he heard the latter sentence, his face was startled. How could he look like he just knew?
He couldn't help but scolded: "I talked to you for an hour after you woke up. Didn't I tell you before? Your uncle found a wife for you, and you said at that time that you wanted to go to the village and ask for it yourself."
He said it more tactfully and implicitly at the time, without even naming who it was, but he did it on purpose. If he forcefully asked Yi Chuanzong to carry something as soon as he woke up, it might be counterproductive.
If Yi Chuanzong inquired curiously himself, it would be easier to accept the process of exploring from passive to active.
The Flower Widow is pretty and handsome, and she will definitely become a beauty once the two of them meet.
In fact, Village Chief Fang has been feeling a little bit sorry in his heart, feeling that he can't bear to have such a young girl.
He was the one who agreed to let Widow Hua and Yi Chuanzong go to the church to get married, and then the two of them slept in the same bed. It must have been Yi Chuanzong's initiative.
Moreover, this matter was spread among people, and the two of them just had to register this matter in the village.
You can only get married when you are twenty, and Yi Chuanzong is not old enough. At that time, he was not well enough and could not make the decision.
Village Chief Fang wanted to wait for Yi Zhonghai to talk about this when he came again. After all, Yi Zhonghai was Yi Chuanzong's uncle and the only elder in Yi Chuanzong's family.
But Yi Zhonghai came back a few years ago, so it was hard for him to specifically urge him to do this. After all, it had been four years. Who knew if Yi Zhonghai was just talking casually after drinking or if he really wanted to do this?
Unexpectedly, Yi Chuanzong suddenly recovered before the Chinese New Year. Village Chief Fang still hoped that the two of them could get together smoothly. He had worked hard before.
Hearing Village Chief Fang's words, Yi Chuanzong was startled, followed by endless embarrassment.
This was the case at the beginning, but what kind of good wife can a fool have? If a fool can like her, can he like her?
He had just woken up at that time and was a little wary of everything outside. His words to Village Chief Fang were only perfunctory.
He was so preoccupied with going to the city, how could he care about the wife in the village? How dare he move forward without even having time to hide?
As a result... after walking around for a while, he still couldn't run away. Not only did he fall in love with it, he also watched it for half a month!
He even rolled into someone else's bed that night. The visual impact was on the one hand, and he was forced to have no choice but on the other hand, he still couldn't control it after all.
"Hey~ why didn't you tell me clearly before? You just said you found me a wife, why didn't you tell me about the two of us?"
Yi Chuanzong looked at Village Chief Fang with great resentment. If this man hadn't made it clear to him and made him think he was just a blind date, why would he have felt guilty for more than a month?
It's not like we are talking about two people at once like now. He also likes Lou Xiao'e, and Sister Hua will definitely not be able to let go. He can only risk his life to go find the two wives and tuck his head in the waistband of his pants.
If he knew what was going on between the two of them, he would have taken Sister Hua to the city long ago. He might even have come back this time to tell the news that the two of them were going to get married after becoming a fourth-level fitter!
"You blame me?" Village Chief Fang immediately stared, his solemn look a bit scary.
"Hey! That's not what I meant. Don't misunderstand me. If it weren't for you, I might not be able to accept it."
'That's weird!'
Yi Chuanzong explained verbally, but rolled his eyes inwardly. Sister Hua was so charming, and the relationship between the two was like that, how could he not like her?
He accepted that he was a fool. If he had a wife before, he would not abandon her.
It’s all the village chief’s fault for not making it clear!
