Yurong was transferred to the sub-district office, so she couldn’t just call her back.
It was about to snow, and the sky was extremely gloomy. Tongtong said to Wu Xiuzhen, "Tomorrow is the weekend, call my sister and the others, and come back to eat pot together! Take the opportunity to collect the cabbage and radishes in the yard! It's cold outside.
I won’t go.”
Wu Xiuzhen chuckled. This gave herself an excuse to ask the second child to come back.
She took the opportunity to pick up the phone and called Gao Cheng, "I know you guys are busy, but no matter how busy you are, there is always time to pick up the dishes..."
So, I came back over the weekend. It was too cold when I got up early, so I came back after a full sleep. It was already noon when I came.
Lei Zhiping threw away his coat as soon as he came in and went out to work, "I've seen the radishes this year. The yield is very large."
"No!" Tongtong said with a smile, "If it wasn't so big, I would have done it myself. Each one of these is so big."
Several children didn't seem to know the cold, so they rushed out to pull radishes! Once they pulled out, they broke, and then they broke again.
Wu Xiuzhen sent them away, "Go inside quickly and watch the video. If I ask you to pull it out again, it will be a disaster."
Yu Lian picked up the half-grown radish into the basket and handed it to Xiao Zhang, "I'll use these fried radish balls at noon. I'll put them away first."
Yurong was busy when she came, and felt a little embarrassed for a moment. Tongtong shouted, "Second sister, you are so smart, go to the vegetable market and buy some Japanese ginger."
Ghost ginger? What do you want that thing for?
"Pickle ginger and radish leaves together, it's very delicious."
real or fake?
Really, "Buy twenty pounds first! That stuff is hard to pack."
As long as it's delicious, I'll take care of it.
Sure enough, I was busy riding a bicycle.
After coming back, they were washing and washing the croquettes. Tongtong took Yurong to pickle vegetables at the table outside. "There is no Chaotian pepper from the south. If there is that thing, add some more. It tastes so good, don't mention it."
Already..."
Fourth Master couldn't help but look at Tongtong a few more times. The pickles made by Tongtong were always delicious. Even many southern pickles were very good. But apart from these side dishes, there were also some
The southern dishes in the example are pretty good, but her living habits are really bad! But why does she know so many southern side dishes?
Or maybe she likes to eat and she learned it specially?
But I don’t like eating that much!
Or when she doesn’t know herself well, she wants to learn more and grasp her own preferences?
Well! It's possible.
When the fourth master looked at her, Tongtong immediately noticed it. She looked over and saw that the fourth master was still looking at her. She said: "..." She picked up a spicy cabbage that had only been pickled for a chopstick, picked it up with her hands, and gave it to her along the way.
Fourth Master sent him to the living room and stuffed it into his mouth, "How is it?"
Yeah! It’s the taste of kimchi country. Yurong also said, “It tastes weird. No one here likes to eat this thing.”
Tongtong laughed, "We are not used to it, but people in country H love it. They can't live without this..."
What does "can't live without" mean? "Like when we are cooking without green onions and coriander?"
No! The inseparable thing is, "...if you eat hot pot, you don't have anything to wash it with, so that's probably the case."
That means there is no way.
"Yes!" Tongtong asked Yurong to taste it for herself, "When this thing is done, it will be exported."
Isn't it just radish and cabbage? It's pickled! What does it taste like?
Tongtong laughed, "...Chinese cabbage was called Siong in ancient times, and it is our native vegetable. In the Ming Dynasty, Chaoxian, as a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, was rewarded with some cabbage seeds by the Ming Dynasty court, and they began to plant them.
.This thing has a high yield and is easy to grow. In a country with extremely poor products, how can we ensure that we have vegetables to eat all year round? We have the habit of pickling vegetables since ancient times. As a dependent country, they belong to the cultural radiation area.
…”
understood!
"Our agricultural products are cheap, and our labor is cheap. As long as they meet food safety standards, pickles and pickles will not only have a huge domestic market, but also a large foreign market. Nowadays, cities are getting bigger and bigger, and the number of pickles in the city is huge.
There is only so much room in the house, who will pickle vegetables? Our generation can still pickle vegetables, but am I willing to ask Jin Mingming to learn how to pickle vegetables?"
Got it! It’s fast food! It must have large vegetable lumps, and it must also be directly cut into shreds and slices.
“The dishes in some places tend to be sweet, but most people in the north don’t like them..."
Yu Rong took another bite of the mustard shreds at home, "I have to go to the south for a run later and taste the pickles there..."
Then I marinated more than ten jars of various flavors in ceramic urns at home.
When Yurong was about to leave, Tongtong brought down a thick stack of books.
What the hell?
Tongtong suddenly stuffed his arms into Gao Cheng's arms, "The pickling thing...the taste may be solved by the formula. Let's find more people to experiment and we can always find the right one. But who controls food safety and food hygiene? Do it?"
If you don't do these two things well, it's definitely not going to work." After saying that, he looked at Yu Rong, "A layman...who dares to invest in you?"
Yurong was stunned for a moment! This stinky girl is rich and can invest! She immediately gritted her teeth, looked at Tongtong sideways, and muttered, but in the end she snatched the book from Gao Cheng's arms, even though her expression looked vicious
"Just wait for me."
When the snow started to fall, everyone who was supposed to go home went back. They just brought a few big and small bags. Carrot balls, fried tofu balls, meat balls, and frozen fish balls for the children.
, and there are also various wholesale fruits, which can last for a week.
After leaving the door, the hustle and bustle of the day is over, the house is neatly tidied, and the children have gone to bed.
Tongtong washed his face and came out. The fourth master was sitting on the balcony, watching the snow getting heavier and heavier outside. As soon as Tongtong passed by, he patted his thigh. Tongtong sat over and looked at him: "What's wrong?" It's a day today.
It's all weird.
Fourth Master held her in his arms and said, "I just want to hug you."
I love hearing this!
She hung on him and rested her chin on his shoulder: Maybe something happened to this person, and his sensibility came out again.
There wasn't much wind outside, it was quiet under the snow, and the balcony lights were turned off. Under the dim light, it became clearer to see outside.
Fourth Master whispered, "Snow turns into water, water turns into air, the sky and the earth... are in constant reincarnation. It should be like this for everyone!"
"certainly!"
The Fourth Master was silent and kept shaking Tongtong in his arms. Within five minutes, he felt that Tongtong's head tilted and he must have fallen asleep.
Fourth Master: "..." I don't need to be sentimental with you. I wanted to watch the snow together, but what happened? It turned out that the cold outside the window was too cold, and I caught a cold if I kept tossing you. Take it and put it on the bed. When you get up, you are shaking.
This time, Tongtong was almost thrown out.
But even after being shaken like this, he didn't wake up, and he slept deeply. He was tucked into the bed and tightly covered in his arms. When he touched his hand, he felt something was wrong. He knew without asking that he had been making pickles all day.
Tossing.
When he got up early in the morning, Fourth Master said to Tongtong: "That's other people's business, don't get involved! If you want to spend money on investment, you can invest, and you can also be a technical consultant yourself? If you want to take a rest, take a complete rest. I'll tell you about other things."
Irrelevant."
I don't want to get involved deeply. People may not be happy if I interfere in everything.
Tongtong took her coat and said, "It's snowing. I'll take the kids to school."
Don't go out, I'm going!
Tongtong really didn't go out, and she didn't recommend Lin Shuangchao go out in weather like this. It was too cold and not very friendly to the elderly. It was good to stay at home and move around.
On a snowy day, except for those who go to school and go to work, what reason do other people have to go out?
The fourth master bought a video recorder and bought a lot of old movie tapes and opera tapes, which gave Wu Xiuzhen something to do. When Lin Shuangchao got up early and left, the video was turned on, holding a sweater and woolen trousers.
, and went to enjoy themselves.
The sound is not loud and hardly affects anything above.
The Twenty-Four Histories are always on Tongtong’s desk, and he is really reading the history books.
The light on the balcony was bright. Today, she was sitting on the balcony reading a book with her shawl wrapped around her shawl. She opened the book and read one page after another when she heard the sound of ringing the doorbell. Looking up, from upstairs, she could see someone ringing the doorbell outside the door.
.Looks like a woman, wrapped tightly and cannot be seen clearly.
Then Xiao Zhang hunched his neck and ran to open the door, leading the guests in.
She was in no hurry to go down, as the important guest Wu Xiuzhen would call her.
Just when she looked back, she heard Wu Xiuzhen shouting: "Xiaotong, come down here and look for you."
Who is it? It looks strange.
When I went downstairs, I saw a woman in her thirties sitting in the living room, whom I had never seen before.
Wu Xiuzhen laughed and said, "This is your Uncle Xie's Rongrong. I'm afraid she's older than you."
Xie Rong smiled and said, "I have read all Xiaotong's works, and I have also read the author's introduction. I am one year older than Xiaotong." He stretched out his hand and said, "Xiaotong, nice to meet you."
Nice to meet you!
Lin Yutong shook hands with her and sat down on the sofa. "I often hear Uncle Xie mention you. I knew you were in Yangcheng, but I didn't expect you to come back. You came back to visit relatives, so you should stay here permanently?"
Xie Rong sighed, "I should stay there permanently! In fact, it has been more than a week since I came back, and my mother kicked me out today. She said she wanted to go out and talk to peers, so as not to panic."
Wu Xiuzhen said, "Go upstairs and chat! I won't talk to you young people."
Lin Yutong took Xie Rong upstairs. He had heard someone say before that Xie Rong's family might not be able to live together. Now it looks like they might be getting divorced.
Sitting in the small hall on the second floor, Xiao Zhang brought tea and fruit. Xie Rong then asked: "I'm here to ask about the child's transfer to another school. I heard from my mother that your family is in a primary school behind.
Is the school still enough to study?"
"I think it's okay." Lin Yutong said, "The key is that it's relatively close, there are no big cars on the road, and it's very safe. I almost don't send them home. If the weather isn't particularly bad, I usually don't care. They can go to school on their own."
Xie Rong glanced at the two children's rooms and said, "Look back, tell me to look at the books that Ming Ming used. I'm afraid the teaching materials in Yangcheng are different from those here."
Yes! It should be a little different.
Xie Rong was quite embarrassed, "Hey, I'm not afraid you know that I was divorced before! It's been three months..."
Really divorced? "Really divorced!" Xie Rong sighed, "Bring the child back and change his surname to Xie."
That means the relationship has completely broken down.
What can Lin Yutong say? He can only say that he will often bring his children over to play together in the future.
In fact, Xie Rong came to talk about the child incidentally. She wanted to talk about her divorce. Xie Rong's husband, Ma Juntian, has a similar family background to Xie Rong... This kind of divorce seems to be a divorce, but it also represents a certain relationship.
rupture.
When they met for the first time, the two didn't chat for long before Xie Rong said goodbye and went home.
She had such frequent activities and told everyone about her falling out with Ma Juntian, so there must be a purpose.
Tongtong went back to the study and looked through the briefing given by Fourth Master. There must be something that he didn't pay much attention to. Sure enough, he found some clues in the briefing a week ago: there was an exchange of cadres from the north and the south, and a person in charge of enterprise reform was exchanged from the city.
The deputy city's name is Ma Juntian.
What is this for? Get it here first, and then your ex-father-in-law will hold it down and spank it. If you don’t get it right, it will fall into disrepair.
Didn't Xie Rong come here just to apply eye drops? Tell himself and Wu Xiuzhen to tell Lao Lin that this Ma Juntian is not authentic.
But the matter of a couple getting divorced has nothing to do with official matters!
There are various bumps and bumps in life. It cannot be said that life has not been dealt with well, and there are also problems at work, right? The divorce was three months ago, and Uncle Xie never mentioned it.
Tongtong frowned and called Fourth Master. The office call was answered by Lu Qiushan, "Writer Lin, the factory director has accompanied the leader to the workshop. Is there anything you need to convey?"
Accompanying the leader? "From the city? Your surname is Ma, right?"
Yes! Lu Qiushan said hurriedly: "Do you need to convey something?"
"No need! Don't disturb your factory director's work."
OK!
Lu Qiu Shan slowly hung up the phone and breathed a sigh of relief. This was the benefit of the background. With such heavy snow, people stayed at home and knew everything about what was going on outside.
Over there, Tongtong went downstairs and asked Wu Xiuzhen, "Do you know why Xie Rong got divorced? It turned out that the divorce was so ugly that he completely fell out."
Wu Xiuzhen glanced towards the kitchen, then turned up the sound of the video, and then whispered: "The Xie family didn't say anything, but I heard a few people in the logistics murmur that it was that Ma Juntian talking to Xie Rong
Before getting married, I had a date with someone when I was working in the countryside. Ma Juntian was not happy with this marriage earlier. It was Ma Juntian's father who was locked up with your uncle Xie in the cowshed, and the two had a good relationship. At that time, Ma Juntian's father
His father was rehabilitated first, and in order to take care of his old comrade, he escorted Ma Juntian to marry Xie Rong. The couple's life was in jeopardy. Xie Rong called home, and eight out of ten times he was crying... bumpy and bumpy.
Tell me, it’s better to leave! Otherwise, the friendship between your Uncle Xie and the Ma family will be completely drained by them by making noises all day long."
But with Xie Rong making such a fuss, many people might have thought that Leader Xie looked down on Ma Juntian, which would bring a lot of unnecessary trouble to Ma Juntian's work.
But he didn't know that after Ma Juntian completed his inspection, he wanted to take the fourth master's car directly. "I have to go see the child, but the gate over there is not easy for me to enter."
Only then did the Fourth Master find out that he was the Xie family's former son-in-law.
Hey! Let's go! It's embarrassing. What good will it do to the Xie family?
In the car, Ma Juntian also smiled bitterly, "I can't mention my ex-wife, she has a very stubborn temper. But I met someone when I went to the countryside, and later she got married. We met by chance in the hospital, then
My child is in the hospital and has no money. I am queuing up to sell blood. Can I just ignore it when I bump into him? This is really serious. They are making trouble for a divorce!" The fourth master smiled and chatted with Ma Juntian all the way! When he arrived at the door of the house, he watched Ma Juntian leave.
Turning around, he saw Lin Shuangchao coming around the corner.
"dad!"
Lin Shuangchao laughed, "Did Ma Juntian go to Xie's house?"
yes!
"Nothing to ask?"
The fourth master shook his head, "You are watching from above, how could you find an unreliable mother-in-law to suppress me! This Ma Juntian, both in terms of character and ability, should be good at it!"
Lin Shuangchao felt so happy that he raised his hand and took his son-in-law's hand: Let's go home!
