Rebirth in 1960: A counterattack starting from hunting in the mountains!

The delicate work of washing vegetables should be done by people like Guo Xiuxiu, Xiaoxiang and Sanya who are used to doing it.

It was so clean without any sand or mud.

Guo Xiuxiu brought two children with her and picked several kinds of vegetables.

There are lettuce, romaine lettuce, spinach, Chinese cabbage, and so on.

Lu Cheng began to prepare the dried chilies and oil and stir-fry the chili oil in the pan.

So, we had hotpot for the first time in the autumn.

Although it is not as oily and gasy as it is today.

But this natural food, a few spoonfuls of red oil were poured into the chicken soup in a large iron pot.

Suddenly the whole courtyard was filled with the strong aroma of hot pot.

Lu Cheng was very considerate and scooped two large bowls of old hen soup and asked Xiaoshuan to deliver it to Lu Yan's home.

There was another bowl for the children to eat.

The rest of the chicken soup is used for hot pot.

On the grill next to it, the meat was sizzling and smelling really good.

Several families arrived just as the meat on the grill was about to be cooked.

The children were quick to ask how to eat and how to play.

It was easy to get the hang of it.

The adults, on the other hand, are a little restrained.

But it only took a few minutes for me to start eating.

Because you don’t eat?

Someone else will eat the meat!

Starving yourself?

Or should I eat it after it’s opened?

Choose your own!

Zhang Junwang was eating meat and drinking hotpot at the same time.

At that time, hot pot was made in a rough way, that is, it was homemade.

It’s not as clean as the modern ones, but it’s not dirty either. It’s just more approachable and a more ordinary way of eating.

The adults from several families used public chopsticks to scoop out the vegetables and meat from the hot pot, and then ate them with their own personal chopsticks. They also let the children taste the hot pot with chili oil.

The children slurped their lips because it was so spicy, but they loved eating it.

It was also Shen Shuang’s first time to eat like this, and she enjoyed it very much.

And is this small courtyard still her small courtyard?

This interior layout is really eye-catching.

While everyone was eating and drinking tiger bone wine, Tian Sen talked to Lu Cheng about how everyone cooperated very well during the autumn harvest this time.

Although Yu Xianglan tried to make trouble secretly several times, Zhang Junwang kept a close eye on her.

She can't be a demon either.

There were also the brothers Lu Xunwang and Lu Xunyan, who stole food several times and tried to carry it back to their own homes, but were intercepted by Zhang Junwang each time.

Look, they deducted work points and food.

But let them know that petty theft is not okay.

Either you earn work points honestly and wait for food distribution.

The night gradually deepened. The men had eaten and drunk their fill, and were about seven-tenths drunk, feeling tipsy.

So everyone worked together to put the furnishings of Lu Cheng's courtyard back to their original places one by one.

The courtyard returned to its original quiet state.

Shen Shuang!

“I feel like our courtyard looks especially nice when it’s set up for a small gathering.”

Yu Xiaohe said: "Xiaoshuang, we are waiting for you to invite us to get together next time. We all like you so much. It feels so good."

He Guimin said, "Silly wife, you just had a meal and you're looking forward to the next one? How can you be so embarrassed?"

"What are you afraid of? I won't have to wait too long next time."

Lu Cheng said in a slightly deep voice.

Shen Shuang smiled and said, "Yes, yes, yes, hehe."

Zhou Sanxiang said: "The layout of this courtyard is really great. These glass oil lamps are very bright at night, and it feels like the night is as bright as day."

Lu Cheng smiled and said, "As bright as day is an exaggeration, but it is also very bright. It is to adjust the atmosphere so that everyone can get some meat and eat and drink well at night!"

Then Zhang Junwang said, "Twenty percent of the expenses for this dinner party is quite a lot, right?"

"It's not a big deal. The most important thing is that everyone enjoys the meal."

Everyone!

"Be happy, be happy."

The children said excitedly: “It’s so much fun!”

Xiaoshuan also said excitedly: "We had a great time and ate well today, and we are the happiest people in the world!"

Guo Xiuxiu wiped her hands and said, "We are all family, eating well is the best thing."

In fact, Guo Xiuxiu also understood that this was the network of contacts that Lu Cheng had accumulated for his elder brother.

These people all have certain abilities to help in the village.

For example, the people in Uncle Zhang's family were busy managing the autumn harvest, warehousing, and watching over the field.

As for He Guimin's family, it was He Guimin who did the most tiring and dirtiest work.

I don’t know about other families, but in Lu Cheng and Lu Yan’s families, the wives they married are not the type to do heavy labor all year round.

It's like the work of carrying manure from a manure pit to the cornfield.

He Guimin and his wife had to help with all this.

Moreover, this job is dirty and smelly.

Most people in the village pay the tax from their own homes every few days, but at the end of the year, they carry the tax further away to work in the wheat fields.

My eldest sister-in-law Zhang Caiqin had been pregnant for ten months. Now that she has given birth, both mother and child are safe. However, since she is in confinement, it is impossible for her to clean the cesspool.

And what about Shen Shuang?

She has a full-time job and is extremely busy every day.

It would be a bit unfair to ask her to clean the manure pit.

Isn't this a waste of her time?

There are so many children's works that need to be revised.

At the beginning, Guo Xiuxiu had been asking Lu Cheng not to pay and to ask He Guimin and his wife to pay for it instead. Guo Xiuxiu wanted to let the old couple work hard for her.

However, although Lu Cheng is not good at showing filial piety every day.

However, we firmly said that we should let He Guimin and his wife do this, firstly because we had our own needs, and secondly to help He Guimin.

This is a long-term job. Although the pay is not much, it just requires a little effort.

He Guimin is not the type of person who should be on the bodyguard team.

Although He Guimin is very hardworking, he is not suitable for working night shifts.

For example, people in the guard team have to work night shifts.

Otherwise, how could this Liuye Production Brigade be so safe?

This village, nestled in the deep mountains, has guards who work hard at their posts, ensuring that everyone can sleep peacefully and live in a safe environment.

Otherwise, without an armed guard team, wild beasts and wolves might attack the village at any time.

As for Tian Sen, he had good physical strength and was very good at chopping wood. He chopped wood and sent it to Lu Cheng's home, and then to Lu Yan's home.

In addition to paying him the monthly wages for chopping firewood, Lu Cheng would also give some bacon to their families.

When Lu Yan first started to settle the money for chopping wood, he felt a little reluctant.

But I saw that my firewood was in endless supply.

He also had more time to worry about the affairs of the Liuye Production Brigade, and these were serious matters that required a lot of worry.

We also need to provide some help to those who are in particularly difficult situations, such as families where young and middle-aged people are no longer around, and the remaining orphans and the elderly.

These are the things that Lu Yan wants to focus on and ask the higher-ups to give them some help.

And there are some mentally ill people who also need to provide some gifts to others at certain times, such as during the Chinese New Year, as a small token of their appreciation for the festival.

These are all applications that need to be submitted and approved by the leaders above at each level.

However, there is not much assistance for the extremely poor households in this era.

Lu Cheng knew of a family that had only three pounds of corn grits and purslane that they dried themselves for New Year's Day.

Lu Cheng!

How do we live like this?
