Zhao Jun's grandma's family is not a small family. Forty or fifty years ago, although they were not considered landlords, in these ten miles and eight villages, Lao Wang's family was one of the best.
When Zhao Jun was a child, Zhao Jun always heard Wang Meilan say that when she was four or five years old, she wore silk and satin, and the delicacies and delicacies could not be tasted in other people's mouths.
People think that mountain animals have a strong smell of odor, and their meat is still firewood. They eat poultry and livestock. Moreover, Zhao Jun and his grandfather like pasta. Breakfast at home is either dumplings or steamed buns. At lunch, it is usually pancakes and rolls of various kinds.
Dishes.
According to Wang Meilan, what she likes is pork elbow meat rolled into flatbreads. The meat from the pig elbow socket is less fat, leaner and still has skin. Roll the meat, fried potato shreds, coriander, green onions, and egg sauce into the pancake.
The big cake is as thick as your wrist. Open your mouth and take a bite. Not to mention how delicious it is.
And this is the life after Lao Wang’s family goes downhill.
Later, times changed, and the old Wang family plummeted. If it weren't for Zhao Youcai's help, it would still matter whether there were any Wang siblings now.
I remember that the last time Zhao Youcai bragged to Zhao Jun, he said that Wang Meilan was a rat carrying a gun, and Wang Meilan surprisingly did not refute.
You know, Lao Wang's family has always been a loser. No matter whether they are justified or not, they still have to make a three-point argument first.
Just like Wang Qiang, even if he knew in his heart that Zhao Youcai was good to him, he would not give in verbally.
But for such a strong talker, when big things happen, he will be strong on the outside and do it on the inside.
More than ten or twenty years ago, Lao Wang's family was quite wealthy. Just when the storm was approaching, it was Zhao Youcai who came up with a way for Zhao Jun and his grandfather to let the old man distribute the family property to his brothers in the name of dividing the family.
Sisters.
Then Zhao Youcai helped find someone to come forward and turned Lao Wang's family from a wealthy family into a middle-class family. Although they suffered a little, they suffered a little, but at least their lives were safe.
This is Zhao Youcai, who is nicknamed Er Gudong by others. They say he has a wilted heart. Zhao Youcai is the exact opposite of the Wang siblings who talk tough. He can't quarrel, but he has many things in his heart.
However, when the opponents were his wife and brother-in-law, Zhao Youcai had no choice but to take the blame and suffer the consequences.
Of course, this is not the key. The key is that according to Wang Meilan, their old Wang family once had a lot of gold and silver.
But in the past three decades, when there was no Wang Meilan, there was a lot of chaos in this area, and those valuable things were not safe at home.
Therefore, Zhao Jun and his grandfather packed a bag full of gold coins and bracelets and stuffed them into the pile of firewood.
He did this very secretly. Even Zhao Jun and his grandmother were kept in the dark. But I don’t know what happened. That day, Huzi went down to their old Wang’s house. He didn’t take anything or robbed anything.
All the piles of firewood were taken away.
Mr. Wang felt bitter, but he gritted his teeth and refused to say anything. For so many years, Mrs. Wang didn't know it. She only thought that the old man had hidden all the good things.
But later, when Wang Meilan and Zhao Youcai got married, the old lady told the old man that since she had such a daughter in the family, she should be given some gifts. Especially when she got married, she brought a pair of gold earrings from her parents' family. The old lady wanted to
Pass this to Wang Meilan.
It was then that Mr. Wang told the truth.
But when he said it, the old lady couldn't bear it. Although she had never seen those things in so many years, she thought they were hidden by the old man. The world was not good and she never took them out, but after all, she had a thought.
.
When she suddenly heard that these things were gone, the old lady seemed to have a feeling that the world was falling apart.
In fact, from Wang Meilan, it can be seen to some extent that this family is somewhat obsessed with money.
The old lady was even more like this. From then on, whenever Wang Meilan returned to her parents' home, the old lady would talk about this matter to her. Whenever she mentioned that she couldn't even give Wang Meilan a pair of earrings as a dowry, the old lady started to wipe her tears.<
/p>
Today, when Zhao Jun mentioned this matter, Wang Meilan couldn't help but think of her mother.
Like many people, Wang Meilan's heart softens when she thinks of her mother.
Seeing that Wang Meilan's eye circles were slightly red, Zhou Shujuan put her arms around Wang Meilan's shoulders and whispered, "Sister Wang, your son has said so, so let's go to the city and have a look. After the inspection, we'll just take it for a walk." At this time, Zhou Shujuan was particularly envious of Wang Meilan. Her son was too filial, so because he was worried about his mother's health, he bought her gold jewelry to coax her.
What conditions are these? What kind of family is this?
"Yes, Mom..."
As soon as Zhao Jun opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Wang Meilan before he finished speaking. He only heard Wang Meilan say: "Okay, I'll go!"
When Zhao Jun heard this, he felt happy. He also saw that Wang Meilan's health not only did not look like something was wrong, but was also getting better day by day.
But the facts that happened in his previous life made him unable to feel at ease. Only if he could walk around the city again would Zhao Jun feel at ease.
"Aunt Zhou." Zhao Jun turned to Zhou Shujuan and said, "Which one of the hospitals in the city do you think is better?"
Zhou Shujuan is a doctor herself. How can she not know which hospital is better? Does she still need to feel it?
When Zhao Jun asked, Zhou Shujuan understood what he meant and immediately replied: "We all know Director Song from the Red Cross. When are you going to take your mother there? Give your aunt a call in advance and I'll say hello to him.
That’s it.”
"Aunt Zhou! Thank you so much!" Zhao Jun was overjoyed when he heard this and hurriedly thanked Zhou Shujuan.
This is why Zhao Jun brought so much wild boar meat to Zhou Shujuan, and also asked Mosga to send her home.
Zhao Jun's home is in Heilongjiang Province, and the provincial capital is Bingcheng. Although Bingcheng also has a good hospital, Zhao Jun doesn't know anyone there and can't talk to him.
Shulan, Ji Province, which is separated by a ridge, is not only closer to Zhao Jun's home, but also has Zhou Shujuan, an acquaintance in the medical system.
It's just that Zhou Shujuan and the minister are relatives who can only be beaten by eight poles, and they are just casual acquaintances with Wang Meilan. It may be possible to ask Zhou Shujuan to do something, but it may not be possible to ask Zhou Shujuan to take advantage of her. p>
But as soon as Zhao Jun came back, he did something that moved Zhou Shujuan. Not to mention how much wild boar meat he gave, just sending Mosga to send Zhou Shujuan home was not something ordinary people could do.
Such friendship, coupled with the loving mother and filial piety of her son, made Zhou Shujuan very willing to do something for her friend Wang Meilan.
At this time, Jie Chen and Zhang Yuanmin came in from the outside together. Jie Chen was holding Hei Youyou in his hand, while Zhang Yuanmin was holding a pot of mountain grapes.
This is the season when grapes come down, but there are no giant peaks in the mountains at this time, and there are only mountain grapes.
Zhao Jun saw this and got busy and asked: "Brother, where are the grapes?"
"It was given by Chen Dalei." Zhang Yuanmin said with a smile: "I came back from the village and saw Chen Dalei and his wife. The two of them picked the whole thing from the mountain."
"Have you finished washing?" Zhao Jun took it and took a look, then placed the basin on the kang table close to Zhou Shujuan, and then said with a smile: "Aunt Zhou, you just like sour food, this thing is sour and sweet." "Hey." Zhou Shujuan responded with a smile, and then said to Wang Meilan: "This child is really thoughtful, Sister Wang, just wait and enjoy the blessing."
Wang Meilan, who was smiling at first, suddenly thought about how she had praised Li Ruhai to Jin Xiaomei in the morning when she heard the second half of Zhou Shujuan's words. The smile on her face suddenly stopped.
……
At nearly six o'clock in the evening, Yang Yufeng came to Zhao Jun's house with a little bell. The mother and daughter each carried a white porcelain basin with a plate on the basin to prevent the food from getting cold.
Zhao Jun, who was chatting with Zhang Yuanmin and Xie Chen in the yard, saw him. He quickly got up and rushed over, taking the porcelain basin from Xiao Ling Dang's hand. However, seeing Xiao Ling Dang's hand covered with a cloth, Zhao Jun still asked with concern: "Ling Dang"
, You didn’t burn your hands, did you?”
"It's okay, Uncle Zhao." Xiao Lingdang smiled at Zhao Jun, then called "Uncle Xie" to Jie Chen, and finally called Zhang Yuanmin.
Zhang Yuanmin took the porcelain basin from Yang Yufeng's hand, and several people entered the house together. At this time, the Kang tables in the two rooms had been set up. The pheasant stewed with mushrooms in the pot had also reached the stage of collecting juice, and the aroma filled the room.
.
Tonight, Zhou Shujuan will stay at Zhao's house for the night. According to Wang Meilan's arrangement, Zhou Shujuan will live with her and the two little girls in the east room, and Zhao Youcai will go to the west room to sleep with Zhao Jun.
Therefore, from the beginning of the meal, the ladies’ table was placed in the east room, while the men’s table was placed directly in the west room.
Zhao Jun had just put away the planes and stewed tanks. Zhao Hong and Zhao Na, who had been playing at Li's house, came back with Li Xiaoqiao.
Immediately afterwards, Jin Xiaomei and Li Ruhai came over with two pots of braised pork. The two pieces of pork belly Zhao Jun cut today were enough, and after they were stewed, they filled two large pots.
Then, Jin Xiaomei called Zhao Jun and others out of the room and brought in all the cold dishes placed on the wall.
Tiger vegetables, cucumbers, tomatoes mixed with sugar, plus canned luncheon meat and canned peaches, a total of five cold dishes, two plates of each.
After being brought into the room, the cold dishes were placed on the table, and the hot dishes were kept in their basins. Everyone was chatting in the room while waiting for Zhao Youcai and the others to come back from get off work.
Suddenly, I heard the dog barking twice outside. Zhao Youcai, Li Dayong, and Li Baoyu came back.
The three of them went directly into the courtyard of Zhao Jun's house. Zhao Jun trotted out of the house and saw Li Dayong holding a gasoline barrel in his hand, and Li Baoyu holding a cloth bag in his arms.
Zhao Jun went over to take the gasoline barrel, and when he looked at Li Baoyu, he heard Li Baoyu say that the cloth bag contained medicines bought with Zhou Jianjun's help, including ten penicillins.
When Zhao Jun heard this, he quickly took the cloth bag and asked Li Baoyu to press water for Zhao Youcai and Li Dayong to wash their faces. He then carried the gasoline barrel and the medicine bag into the house and placed them properly one by one.
When Zhao Jun came out again, he held a handkerchief with the words "Yong'an Forest Farm" printed on it and handed it to Zhao Youcai, who had just washed his face, and asked him to wipe his face.
At this time, seeing Li Baoyu pressing water for Li Dayong, Zhao Jun whispered to the three of them: "We are in trouble at home."
Li Baoyu asked curiously: "Brother, who is it?"
Zhao Jun replied: "Let's go to Lingnan and treat my mother's Aunt Zhou."
"Ah!" Li Baoyu remembered it as soon as he heard it, but Zhao Youcai and Li Dayong were still confused. The gentlemen are careless and don't have the talent of Li Ruhai. They don't have a deep impression of someone who only mentioned it once.<
/p>
After washing their faces, the three of them entered the house. They first went to the east room to get to know each other with Zhou Shujuan. Then they didn't rush to start the meal and sat down to chat briefly.
As the nominal head of the family, Zhao Youcai said to Zhou Shujuan: "Sister, you are welcome to come to our home. We poor people in rural areas do not provide good hospitality. Please forgive me."
What Zhao Youcai said is right. After all, he is the chef of the cafeteria. In the past, when the forest farm leaders entertained guests, he could listen to a word or two, and he would remember it after a long time.
"Brother-in-law, your family's conditions are good enough." Zhou Shujuan praised with a smile. She called Wang Meilan sister, and Zhao Youcai called brother-in-law.
"It's not bad." Zhao Youcai shook his head and said with a smile: "I'm busy at work today, so I don't care about anything at home. Let them just worry about it."
Hearing Zhao Youcai's words, Zhou Shujuan smiled and nodded. She was in a daze for a moment. If she hadn't heard Wang Meilan say that Zhao Youcai was just a cook, and just by what he said just now, she would have thought that he was a leader. He seemed to be managing everything.
Similar.
At this time, Zhao Youcai rolled his eyes, glanced at the table, looked at Wang Meilan and said, "Here, big sister, what have we given you to eat?"
Needless to say about the cold dishes, you can see them if you are not blind. Wang Meilan then recited the three hard dishes that held the plate to Zhao Youcai. After hearing this, Zhao Youcai smiled and said to Zhou Shujuan: "Sister, it's not easy for you to come here."
I'm going to be off work tomorrow. I'll go up the mountain and bring you some food, some chicken, gray dog eggs, etc..."
"Brother-in-law, no need." Zhou Shujuan said with a smile: "I work in the town now, but I also came from the countryside. My mother-in-law is still living in the countryside."
"Ah!" When Zhao Youcai heard this, he thought to himself: This can't work. Whether you eat or not is a trivial matter. I have to have an excuse to go up the mountain tomorrow. After going up the mountain, I have to go to the next village to bring back my five blacks.
What?
Just when Zhao Youcai was still making excuses, Wang Meilan spoke, and he just heard him say: "We have everything at home, so don't go up the mountain tomorrow. You can clean up the back garden and build a shed."
Zhao Youcai Kamo rolled his eyes twice, but in the end he didn't dare to stab him. He just asked: "What are you going to do with the shed? Son... No, are we moving out before the New Year?"
"We have moved away." Wang Meilan said with a smile: "We keep this yard to raise livestock. Today my sister showed me that the two female roe deer have cubs, and they have two litters of roe deer cubs, so we will keep them." "Ah?" Upon hearing what Wang Meilan said, Zhao Youcai knew that he would not be able to avoid this job tomorrow, but he remembered something and asked Zhou Shujuan: "How can a big girl look at a roe deer?"
Indeed, even if a veterinarian treats poultry and livestock, he can’t treat mountain livestock, right?
Zhou Shujuan heard this and said with a smile: "My father-in-law is a biology teacher. In the first two years, he worked with the province to compile the provincial annals of Ji Province. He happened to be editing the animal annals and stayed home to write articles every day. I followed him and took a look.
”
The people in the mountains couldn’t understand what provinces and animals were talking about, but they thought they were very powerful.
But after Zhao Youcai heard this, his eyes lit up and he asked, "Sister, tell me, can that red dog thing be trained to fight in sieges?"
