After Li Zheng and the others had left, Yang turned his head to look at Lin Qingwan and them.
"Let's go, go to Auntie, I will make a good meal for you to celebrate."
It can indeed be called a celebration, and finally got rid of this superb home.
Lin Qingwan and the others were separated because of the arrangement in advance, so they didn't make any right or wrong, but it was extremely difficult for the three-bedroom couple to be and tearful.
Lin Qingwan thinks that the three-bedroom couple is also cruel. If not, if it is not for the Yang family to invite the clan chief Yang and Lizheng to preside over the justice of their second-bedroom, so that the old man Yang will be hard-hearted in front of others. It's so simple.
Lin Qingwan saw that Grandpa Yang was extremely unwilling to let go of the three-bedroom separation. It is estimated that Grandpa Yang was also very distressed at this time.
However, all this has nothing to do with them.
Lin Qingwan is not going to use sympathy on this family, even if it is Elder Yang. For this old man who is hard to distinguish between good and bad, it is not bad at ordinary times, but every time it comes to a critical juncture, the old man who loses his chain, Lin Qingwan’s good feelings have long been annihilated, and he ignored Yang Tiezhu and lay in the hospital waiting. Help, just as he sits and watches He throw them off...
"Auntie, I'm not going anymore, look at us like this—"
Yang thinks so, and a little worried about them eating at night.
Lin Qingwan saw Yang's worry and smiled and said to her: "Okay, Auntie. Don't worry about us. I have rice and vegetables in my house. I will cook something casually later. Do you think we can go out like this? ?"
It was true that Lin Qingwan and Yang Tiezhu could not go out, but Yang Tiezhu could not stand for a long time, and the couple would be miserable. His face was scratched and his face was swollen like a pig's head.
The Yang confessed to them again, and then stepped out of the Yang family courtyard.
Several people came to the second house again. Yao remembered that the two children were still in the third house and didn't know what was going on now.
I hurriedly brought the two children over. The two children were crying with tears. It is estimated that they heard the noise in the main house, but remembered that the adult told him not to cry in the house.
It was late at this time, and a house was old, weak, sick, but even so, they still had to eat, not to mention they didn't eat at noon. They were all hungry.
Lin Qingwan pressed Yang Tiezhu onto the kang and lay down, and several people joined hands to prepare the meal in the cubicle. During the period, Lin Qingwan asked Yao to scrub even with cold water, and Yao's face became severely swollen.
Because of the cold, a few people sat on the kang to eat.
Yang Tiegen was still good at first, who knows that eating is full of sadness. Yao knew what her husband was thinking, and his face became sad.
Lin Qingwan knew what they were worrying about, and said with a smile: "Okay, don't worry, the living can still be suffocated. If I and your second brother have a bite, you will not be hungry for your whole family. Let this year pass. Besides, the beginning of spring next year will not be enough."
"But, your second sister-in-law has no food, and your second brother is sick again." Yao said.
"Don't worry, there is no food to buy, just how much food these few people can eat. I sold a large piece of embroidery a few days ago, exchanged some silver and still put it in my hand, enough for us to spend this year ."
"but……"
Lin Qingwan interrupted what Yao wanted to say.
"If you want to recognize this second brother and me, second sister-in-law, don't say anything. I know how you are as a couple. When Tie Zhu was injured in the mountains, no one in the family went. He alone did not hesitate. Go. I will remember this love all my life."
Yang Tiegen said, "Second Sister-in-law, you will be out of sight if you say so, after all, you are a family..."
Before he could finish his words, Lin Qingwan interrupted him, "Since he said he was a family, don’t talk about two families. It’s not a difficult time, so you have to pass this year before you talk about it. If you couple really feel that If you feel sorry for it, just treat it as if I was borrowing your food. Next year, if you have more money, you can return it to us. Isn't that okay?"
The three-room couple looked at each other and saw that Lin Qingwan and Yang Tiezhu's faces were determined, so they nodded and said nothing else.
Several people had eaten, because Yang Tiezhu had injuries on her body and Lin Qingwan was a pregnant woman. The couple picked up the dishes and washed them.
After tidying up everything in the second room, the couple went back to the room to deal with the injuries on each other's faces.
Lin Qingwan took a brief wash and lay on the kang. After a whole day of tossing, she was already tired, and fell asleep after closing her eyes.
Thinking of the comfortable days after the separation, no one will pick up and find the ballast, even in her sleep there is a happy smile on her face...
Everything will get better...
After the separation that day, there seemed to be no major actions in the main house, and He did not come to the house. Lin Qingwan and Yao Shi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Lin Qingwan also wondered why the Clan would be unwilling to be lonely, and even made preparations for the Clan Ho to find the ballast. But He didn't make any movements, and even if he met them in the yard, he thought he hadn't seen them. It's just that the blade-like mouth is tightened, and the eyes are more resentful, but I have been suppressing the trouble of not going forward to find the second room and the third room...
It seems that He has listened to the words that Chief Yang said in the courtyard that day. It turns out that this person of the He family actually has something to fear, that is, being forced to retreat to her natal family by the clan leader.
There are no more people in the He family, only one brother.
My brother’s several sons are now married, and the family lives together, and the family environment is not very good. There are too many people and too few houses. Many people can't even insert their feet. He was dismissed and returned to her family's home, so she had to be kicked out of the house one way to go, so she had no choice but to suppress her own temperament and avoid trouble with two bedrooms and three bedrooms.
The Yang family’s yard is no different from before, except that the yard is very depressed and deserted, and even if they meet the people in the main house, they are still speechless. Then, within two days, there were two more big iron locks on the door of the stove and firewood.
Seeing this, the people in the second and third rooms can only smile helplessly.
When the family was separated, there was no division of firewood in the family. Seeing that the He family did not plan to use the firewood for them, even if the firewood was cut back by Yang Tiezhu and Yang Tiegen.
Yang Tiezhu couldn't go out, so Yang Tiegen was the only one carrying the basket to chop wood.
It is getting colder every day. At this time, I don’t cut wood to prepare for the winter. When it gets colder, I will only starve and get frozen.
When Yang Tiegen was going to chop wood, Lin Qingwan and Yao were sitting in the second house doing embroidery work.
Because there was not much firewood, only the second house was burning in the daytime these few days, and the three-bedroom family stayed in the second house during the day.
Yang Tiezhu was pressed on the Kang by Lin Qingwan to recover. Lin Qingwan was bored by herself and had no pastimes at ordinary times. There were a few people in the room and it was quite lively.
Since the separation of the family, the Yao family has been more diligent in embroidering the purse. When I don't have work on my hands, I just don't leave my purse, I just embroider two stitches when I catch it.
Lin Qingwan knew that she had no money in her hand to make trouble, but she didn't say anything, but told her to rest her eyes after embroidering for a while.
Lin Qingwan is pregnant now, Yang Tiezhu will not let her do embroidery work, so she can only nest on the kang with a quilt like Yang Tiezhu every day, and talk to Yao and two Niuniu from time to time, but one day has passed. fast.
Seeing Yao's diligence in embroidering, but he can't handle the embroidery work, Lin Qing leisurely did nothing to do and guide Yao's side.
After a few days, Yao's craftsmanship has improved, and when he went to hand in work, he even took two embroidered purses back to make them. When he was ready to do it smoothly, he would not make that cheap purse.
Yang Tiegen cut enough firewood for the two families to defrost next year, so he packed up and went to the town to do odd jobs.
Although Yao loves her husband, she also knows that her family has no money and no food, so she can't rely on the second room until the autumn harvest next year.
After Yang Tiegen left, an adult and two children in Sanfang stayed with Erfang couple every day.
Yang Tiezhu accidentally tore the wound on the day of the separation, Lin Qingwan now refuses to let him out of bed except for convenience. He could only lie alone on the kang, watching his wife nest in the middle of the kang talking to the three younger siblings and the two children in amusement.
Of course, if he behaves well, his daughter-in-law is still willing to give him a beautiful look, and sometimes put some snacks into his mouth.
Yang Tiezhu is easy to be satisfied, and if his wife gives him some color, he can have fun for a long time, but Lin Qingwan coaxes him.
The days went on like this, and Lin Qingwan started raising pigs every day.
Yao said that she has a body, and she seldom let her work. What's more, now that she is cooking and washing clothes, Yao will do it with three strokes alone. Lin Qingwan didn't rob her.
In the main room, I thought that no food was distributed to the two rooms, and the people in the two rooms were going to starve and freeze.
Who knows that there is no sign of starvation or freezing at all. Yang Tiegen cuts the firewood back, and can smell the aroma of stewed meat in the second room every few hours. Occasionally encounter Lin Qingwan, Yao's and two chicks in the yard, Wang's even can see that they have eaten a lot of fat, and the complexion on their faces is even better, and can't help gritting their teeth in resentment.
The Wangs don’t need to think about it, the aunt Yang must have helped these two families!
Wang's life is very difficult now, she now regrets very much why she instigated He to divide the second room.
If the second room didn't go out, the third room wouldn't dare to follow along and break up the family together, and now her life would not be so difficult.
The Yang family didn't have much food, and coupled with the fact that the two rooms and three rooms were separated, the food card in He's family became even tighter.
It used to be gruel and wowo cakes, but now I drink porridge every day, and I don’t even eat the wowo that cushions my stomach.
In the past, it was three daughters-in-laws who switched to do housework at home. Now that the two and three bedrooms are separated, all the housework in the family rests on her alone.
He was upset and couldn't go to the trouble of two bedrooms and three bedrooms. He was thinking of ways to toss her. The tossing Wang clan made a lot of misery, and the Wang clan did not dare to make trouble with the He clan. Because once, when she was having trouble with the He family, He scolded her and instigated the separation of the second room. Yang Tieshuan was away from home all day long. Old man Yang used to say a few words to her, but now he doesn't help her.
Wang's only self-sufficiency was to be a cow and a horse at home every day, and he didn't dare to resist, and it didn't take long for him to lose weight.
Lin Qingwan knows that Wang's life is not easy now, and she can imagine it with her toes, and only the fool of Wang's will think that everyone is driven away, and the family will take her turn to dominate the king.
Wang Clan had forgotten, there was still a female big worm crawling on her head, that was He Clan.
Unless Dafang also splits up, the Wang family will not be able to get rid of He's restraint for the rest of his life.
But is the big house scorer? It is obviously reluctant and impossible.
Two people dragged four children, just because of the laziness of the big couple, it is possible to starve to death outside. What's more, Dafang is the eldest son. After the separation of the family, the parents always live with the eldest son.
So now that Wang's life is so miserable, Lin Qingwan doesn't sympathize with her at all.
Such a person can only be cured by He, so let them bite the dog.
The weather outside was getting colder and colder. There was a light snowfall last night, but it only took a short time. It stopped after a while and it didn't finish.
Lin Qingwan got up in the morning and opened the door and walked out. Her mouth became a white mist with a breath of heat.
But she didn't feel cold, because she had already put on the newly made jacket. Yao laughed at her when she was wearing such a thick dress when she was just getting cold, what should I do if it gets colder after a while.
Lin Qingwan laughed and said that when it gets colder, she won't be able to come out under the covers, but this is just a joke. No matter how comfortable the days here are, it can't keep up with modern times.
In modern times, you can stay in the house and blow the heating when it snows, as long as you have money. But many things here are extremely inconvenient. For example, you need to burn wood for cooking and use water to hit the well.
Lin Qingwan stood under the eaves, moved her arms twice, and stared at the dark sky in a daze.
The coldness on her cheeks, as well as the dampness that ran into the lungs between her breath, made her uncontrollably think of her previous life...
In fact, Lin Qingwan was not a good-for-life baby in her previous life. When she was very young, she was thrown on the street by her family and became a homeless baby.
She was still very young at that time, about a few years old, I don’t remember, because she didn’t remember anything at that time, only knew that she was a little beggar wandering since she remembered, and she was messy and dirty with a group of street beggars. Find something to eat everywhere...
Going through the trash can, picking up leftovers leftovers from other people’s food at the overnight market stalls. Later, they grew a bit bigger and somehow they were sent to the orphanage by government officials...
I stayed in the orphanage until I was admitted to the university. The university tuition fee is a student loan, and the living expenses are part-work and part-study. Others go to college to enjoy life, to fall in love. She is busy all day long, busy earning her own living expenses, busy making money and paying back student loans...
After graduation, I was afraid of being poor and doing two jobs. During the day, I do a project in a small company, and at night I work as a beauty editor on a website. Her life is always busy and busy again. As for why she is busy, she doesn't even know in the end...
Usually there are no friends, no relatives, and all you can talk to is your colleagues in the company or some strangers you know on the Internet. And the greatest happiness is to buy some delicious food in my spare time, and then go home and think about cooking for myself. When I am busy, the instant noodle box lunch will be solved.
Some orphans will go to their biological parents when they grow up, even if they can't find them, they will make some efforts. Only, Lin Qingwan is different from other people, and has never thought of it like this before.
She has always felt that she is an orphan, or someone that no one else does not need. Otherwise, how could she become a homeless child at such a young age?
In the deepest part of her memory, the memory of home is a woman with a fuzzy face, cooking and smiling while holding a piece of meat to feed her...
This is her earliest memory. I don’t remember who that person looked like. The only thing that impressed me was the piece of meat, which should be very delicious...
Lin Qingwan can't remember what it smells like, but this thing has become the deepest obsession in her last life. She never thought of looking for her parents, but she was very persistent with this thing deep in her memory.
At first, she didn't know what it was. She didn't know that the piece of meat was sausages when she ate some new year products donated by a benevolent person in the south at the orphanage.
Sausage made by traditional methods.
Later, when I grew up a little bit, I learned that eating sausages made with this traditional craft before Chinese New Year is a custom in many parts of the South.
It's just that the orphanage is in the north, and there are very few things to eat, which makes this thing strange.
Sausages...infused with traditional crafts...a custom in the South before New Year...
I didn't know how to remember this thing, and it even became an obsession. I couldn’t eat it when I was young. When I grow up I have some abilities. I will buy some to eat before the Chinese New Year every year. Later I think the food sold out is not delicious enough and authentic, so I learn to make it myself...
She took the university entrance exam in the south, and after graduation, she stayed in the south...
When I go out to work and become capable, Lin Qingwan will take the time to arrange some new year goods during the twelfth lunar month during the Chinese New Year, and then eat delicious dishes on the night of the New Year’s Eve and watch the Spring Festival broadcast every year. Party...
One year passed like this...
Regarding the new year, she always has a kind of disgusting and expectant stubbornness... I hate the coldness of being alone in the New Year, but there is always a contradiction to do a lot of new year goods to tell herself
Yu Ziman, it's coming to New Year... Actually, you can have a good time without anyone accompanying you...
At this time, Lin Qingwan could smell the smell of Nian from the cold air at the tip of her nose, even the smell of sausage...
Suddenly, there is a feeling of salivation, and I want to eat...
Lin Qingwan went back to the house and asked Yang Tiezhu and then Yao, asking around here, but I didn't even know what sausage was. She described the gestures for a long time, and neither of them knew such things.
But Lin Qingwan just wants to eat, the kind that can't be imagined.
Yao laughed and said that pregnant women would be inexplicably greedy. She was also at that time. When she was pregnant with San Niu, she wanted to eat peanuts. But her mother-in-law was very tight, and peanuts were expensive things, so she couldn't eat her mouth. Then her man felt sorry for her when she went out and carried the bag for a day. After changing her money, she bought some food to relieve her hunger.
Lin Qingwan didn't know if her gluttony was due to pregnancy, anyway, she couldn't think of it.
With a touch of thought, Lin Qingwan couldn't sit still, and discussed with the Yao family about going to town.
Yao did not let her go, saying that she should pay attention in the first three months. It just so happened that Yang gave them food and said they had to go to town. Yao and Yang went together and said that Lin Qingwan wanted to buy what she would buy for her.
Lin Qingwan listed some things for Yao to buy back, and gave her a couple of silver. Especially for pig small intestines, it has been repeatedly explained to buy the whole set, the more complete the better.
Some people here eat the large intestine of pigs, but the small intestine is usually thrown away or fed to cats and dogs. Yao was very confused about why Lin Qingwan wanted this kind of thing, but seeing her resolute attitude, she didn't say anything else.
When the Yao family came back, Yang Tiegen came back with him. After Lin Qingwan asked, she learned that Yang Tiegen was back to get the clothes, and he would go to town later.
Yang Tiegen picked up a short-term part-time job outside yesterday. It was in a covered area, so he didn't come back these nights. Seeing that it was getting colder and colder outside, he didn't bring any cotton clothes when he left, so he wanted to come back to get his clothes.
Yao's tears sent Yang Tiegen away. Lin Qingwan was a little puzzled about Yao's attitude, why he was crying because of the parting of life and death.
After hearing what Yao said, she realized that she was distressed by her man. The so-called part-time job is actually quite hard.
People in the village usually work in the fields, so they can only find odd jobs when they go out to work. But where are odd jobs so easy to find, most of them are for people to carry goods, and the wages are based on the number of pieces. Sometimes there is this kind of work, sometimes not, and many times you have to wait.
Country folks can save while going out. They are usually reluctant to eat and drink. When they are waiting for work, they just find a corner to squat, and eat a bun.
No wonder Lin Qingwan saw that Yang Tiegen came back to lose weight this time, and she went to ask Yang Tiezhu if she did odd jobs before.
Yang Tiezhu was telling the truth, saying that it was really hard and tiring, but he used to prefer to go out to do odd jobs, and he didn't want to be urged by He to go up the mountain. Lin Qingwan asked him why, but he couldn't say it himself. He thought it might be a kind of rebellious psychology...
Lin Qingwan was silent after listening, and touched the poor child's head.
Yang Tiezhu was healed in an instant, he only had to stick out his tongue and wag his tail.
After Lin Qingwan comforted Yang Tiezhu, he went to wash the pig's small intestines. In the past, the traditional vegetable market in the past had the casings used to sell sausages, but there is no one here, so I have to do it myself.
Yao didn't know what she wanted to do, but when she was going to wash the pig intestines, she had to help her. Lin Qingwan did not agree. She washes pig small intestines not for eating, but for peeling casings. Yao doesn't know what casings are, only she does it herself.
Lin Qingwan asked Yao to find a chopstick to turn the pig's small intestines. There is no faucet for easy washing. You can only wash the outside and then turn it over to clean the inside.
Lin Qingwan turned it over carefully, for fear of puncturing her small intestine.
Turning the small intestine over, she mixed the salt with mixed flour and rice, and rubbed the overturned pig small intestine. After rubbing it for a long time, I took it to the well and washed it with water.
Wash the back end and return to the house, and then use bamboo chips to scrape the mucosa and fat on the small intestine. Scrape slowly a little bit, so as not to accidentally scratch the casing.
When Lin Qingwan made sausages by herself in her previous life, she always went to the vegetable market to buy the processed sausage casings. Because I checked a lot of information about self-made sausages online, she even read many posts about peeling sausages. It's just that there are not many things here, so I can only handle it slowly and simply.
When Lin Qingwan asked Yao to buy casings, she brought back a lot of pork and condiments. Yao's pork had been washed and drained. Lin Qingwan had processed the casings and went to see Yao's washed pork.
The pork used for stuffing sausages is best to be fat or thin, preferably fat three and seven thin, so that the stuffed sausages will not become very hard and woody because of too much lean meat. Lin Qingwan's favorite food in her last life was the Cantonese sausage, and of course she also liked the Sichuan-style sausage.
Lin Qingwan directed Yao to cut the pork into grains, and then ran to the outhouse by herself to take out some medicinal materials that she had bought at the drug store when she used to grab medicine for Yang Tiezhu.
"Thirteen Fragrance" is a seasoning known to all Chinese in the past life. When Lin Qingwan used this seasoning to stew or marinate meat in her previous life, she also checked the recipe on the Internet.
There are many recipes on the Internet, but it’s definitely impossible to match the "Thirteen Fragrance" recipes, but they are similar. The only difference is that the recipes are different.
The so-called thirteen incense is made from thirteen Chinese herbal medicines. The ingredients include purple commode, amomum, nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves, Chinese pepper, star anise, cumin, woody, angelica, Sanna, ginger, dried ginger, etc. The recipe is also very simple, that is, five parts of pepper and star anise. Mix two parts each of cinnamon, sanna, tangerine peel, ginger, and angelica dahurica, mix and grind into rice.
