A guest came to the house, and the Fourth Master invited them in. Lin Yutong was busy serving the guests' meal.
A few days ago, I exchanged grain with the people at the grain station. One pound of fine white flour can be exchanged for five pounds of black flour. This stuff is steamed at home to entertain guests, and it is also decent. Otherwise, I would use two-fold noodles every time.
It's a waste of money not to mention it, but it's still rough food for people to look at.
Today she made pancakes with black flour. Brush the bottom of the pan with a layer of oil and they will come out browned. Fish was stewed in a small pot, and some beans and eggplant were fried. It was a meal.
This person's name is Guo Yonghong. He speaks loudly and laughs heartily. He talks to Fourth Master about things in Yunnan.
Of course, the appetite is also large, and one meal can feed three ordinary people.
Lin Yutong was a little curious as to how this man managed to keep himself strong in these years.
"This pancake is delicious." Guo Yonghong sighed, "We are half full even after eating, and our stomachs are growling with hunger at night."
It doesn't look like it. He's so strong.
Bai Xiaomei came over with half a bowl of ham, "I know someone is here, so I came here to give you another dish."
Lin Yutong was not polite and put it on the plate. He grabbed five or six pancakes and gave them to her. Then he looked up and was stunned. He put his hand on Bai Xiaomei's wrist and said, "Don't move, let me take a look." This pulse diagnosis
, it’s really, “You are pregnant.”
"Huh?" Bai Xiaomei was still looking around to see who the guest was, but she was suddenly interrupted by Lin Yutong, who was startled, "You said... what happened to me?"
"She's pregnant." Lin Yutong pulled Bai Xiaomei, "It's been three months and you don't even know."
Good guy, this is a lot of work in the fields. "You are lucky. If you are really tired, what should you do?"
Bai Xiaomei finally came back to her senses, "Ouch! I'm telling you! I feel dizzy when I stand up recently."
Lin Yutong immediately carried a basin into the back room, "Wait for me."
Without much effort, he brought out twenty or thirty eggs with a packet of brown sugar on top. "Take it back, one egg with brown sugar a day. Eat it for a month and you will feel better." Now this is the condition.
Bai Xiaomei waved her hands repeatedly, "This is unacceptable..."
Lin Yutong couldn't help but said, "Let's go, I'll take you back."
Cheng Hao was waiting for Bai Xiaomei to have dinner. Who knew that such a big news would come.
I am suddenly going to be a father and a mother, I should be happy. But looking around, in such a big room, there are only a few clothes for two people in the box. What should I do after the baby is born?
After Lin Yutong left, Bai Xiaomei sat on the kang and worried, "What should I do after giving birth?"
"You can always grow up!" Cheng Hao squatted by the kang, "Since you can have a baby now, what will you do if you don't?
When Lin Yutong went back, Guo Yonghong had already left.
"Why are you leaving here?" Lin Yutong asked Fourth Master.
"It happened that the clerk's class was going to the train station, so I gave him a ride." Fourth Master said, smiling, "This guy is not bad. My father was a martyr, and he died when he was fighting against U.S. aggression and aiding Korea. My mother also passed away long ago. It's Shi Baijia.
He grew up. Because of his father, he successfully enlisted in the army at the age of 18. He has been in the army for eight years and is now 26. He is the same age as his eldest sister. He has no relatives, not even any brothers and sisters. I think
The eldest brother over there is also interested in this. Even if he goes to Beijing in the future, there will be no worries here. In addition, because his father is a martyr, this marriage of the eldest sister can give her some protection. I think this marriage
It's basically reliable." He said, pointing to the chopping board, "I asked him to carry the bag of black noodles and deliver it to eldest sister on the way. He also sent a letter. After reading it, eldest sister knew what it meant."
Lin Yutong looked at it and saw that all the pancakes were gone. They were taken as dry food. "I have worked hard all the way, so I have to bring something back."
"I gave you a few industrial coupons. We don't use them very much." Fourth Master explained.
Also, you don’t have to buy soap, toothpaste, toothbrushes, etc. Can’t you save these tickets?
A few days later, Guo Yonghong called the company headquarters. First, he told him that his job had been arranged and assigned to the local public security bureau. Second, he told Yinwei's decision. At this time, all the workers, peasants and soldiers in college were
It is a two-year schooling system. They have been studying for a year and a half now, and the remaining half year is an internship. They want to get married as soon as possible. When Yinwei is assigned, her family factors will be taken into consideration.
The Fourth Master immediately agreed. And at the company headquarters, he spoke on the phone to Yin Chen who was far away in Yunnan for the first time.
After coming back, Fourth Master said: "Brother, we've got it done over there."
This is a good thing.
I don’t know if there are a lot of good things this year. Immediately afterwards, Lin Yutong received a letter from home, saying that her eldest sister was getting married. When she was busy with the wedding and thought of telling her, Lin’s mother found out that eldest sister Lin might be pregnant. Although she was still pregnant.
There is no confirmed diagnosis, but it should be close to ten.
When the autumn harvest was about to come, another happy event happened that I don’t know if it could be considered a happy event.
On this day, Captain Li came over in person and said that he was going to marry Li Guofang and asked Fourth Master and Lin Yutong to come over then.
"So fast? Who are you following?" Lin Yutong asked.
Captain Li frowned, "She is willing to Ge Hongbing, but no one else is willing to do it. What do you think we should do about this matter? We don't agree on how to deal with it. We can't delay it like this and become an old girl."
Is it considered an old girl if you don’t marry after 20?
There is no way, the whole society is like this.
But Ge Hongbing looks good now, but who can say for sure what the world will be like in the future?
Different family backgrounds, different living environments, different growth experiences, and different cultural levels. How can such two people live together?
"Ge Hongbing is also willing?" Lin Yutong asked.
Captain Li said bitterly: "This is what makes me angry. I am a man and I can't tell whether he has my sister in mind. I don't know if he firmly disagrees.
What I thought, I actually nodded in agreement. My mother died early, and I raised this girl as my daughter. I saw her running back and forth from the county town, and came back to take a look at Ge Hongbing from a distance. Then I
You can’t let it go in your heart, can you?”
I have tried to persuade everyone who should be persuaded, but no one can persuade me. Even ten horses cannot be pulled back. What can I do?
Lin Yutong gave me a set of sheets, quilt cover, pillow, and pillow towel. It was considered an extremely important gift.
Li Guofang pulled Lin Yutong, "Master, if I don't give it a try, I won't be able to live with it. Even if the future is really bad... I won't regret it."
She is wearing a wedding dress with red background and green flowers. What else can Lin Yutong say?
"You have to live your own life." She comforted, "Don't belittle yourself at any time. Come to me if you have any difficulties."
"Master, do you still recognize me?" Li Guofang's eyes lit up and he asked.
What a nice girl! She is a bit silly.
Lin Yutong nodded, "Have a good time."
The only thing she can hope for is that Ge Hongbing is a reliable person.
When leaving the village, he saw Tang Tang standing on the roadside from a distance, looking at the commotion in front of Captain Li's door. Lin Yutong thought to himself, maybe it wasn't because Tang Tang was entangled too tightly with Ge Hongbing, and Ge Hongbing wouldn't have agreed to this so easily.
marriage.
However, everyone has a different understanding of happiness. For Li Guofang, she is satisfied after having been with her own people. This idea is silly, but very pure.
Maybe things have changed with age and changes in the world. However, this relationship proves that she was once young and passed.
Fourth Master whispered: "Don't just think about the bad side. Ge Hongbing is still responsible. He has already thought about it when he agreed to get married. Women are easy to be impulsive, but men will not be impulsive when faced with such things.
.”
I hope so. Rather than not knowing when love will change, responsibility plays a decisive role in marriage.
The carriage moved forward slowly, and there were cornfields on the roadside. There were no people in front or behind. Lin Yutong walked over and lay on the fourth master's back. He felt that it was great to have this person.
Fourth Master stretched out his hand and gently rubbed Lin Yutong's head.
Lying on the kang at night, Lin Yutong blinked and looked at the fourth master. She chased him wherever he went. The fourth master was helpless by her, so he had to get on the kang and lie down. "You are really getting better and better as you live. You are still alive."
You have learned to be sentimental. You are an old witch, and you still think you are a cardamom girl?"
Lin Yutong got into his arms and smiled. "A hundred-year-old woman is still a woman."
She couldn't help but think of the old lady who used to live downstairs in her house. The old lady had little feet and sat downstairs all day. She didn't bring the key that day, so she could only wait downstairs. Then she chatted with the old lady.
Speaking of her wife, she was so sad that she cried. She talked about how when she was young, before her husband married her, she had a sweetheart. However, the sweetheart's life was not good, and the man died just two years after they got married.
They had just gotten married at that time, and his wife secretly carried water to her old sweetheart. He didn't dare to let her know. Later she found out and was so heartbroken that she wanted to die. Her husband swore to her that it was because he felt pity for that woman that he carried water.
. She didn’t do anything else. But it wasn’t a matter of doing anything else, but a matter of heart. She had been thinking about this all her life and wanted to be sad every time. She felt that she had been sad all her life. Now, my wife
She died a few years ago, and her old sweetheart died even earlier. Now she is left with a family full of children and grandchildren, and even her great-grandson is in college. But when the old lady thinks of what her husband did when she was young, she will still think of her 'betrayal' back then.
Sad. Finally, the old lady said: "I have spent my whole life with him, but I will not forgive him until my death. Even if he is lying on the ground, I will not forgive him in my dream."
The old lady has lost all her teeth and can’t speak clearly. At such an age, she should have a thorough understanding of the world and learn to let go. But she is as stubborn about love as before. (. )
