60s Splendid Life

They ate the meal at noon for nearly an hour, and the three children had already eaten and went to the table to play. The adults were still sitting here chatting, and Lu Jin was sitting there listening to his grandfather and uncles talking.There are still a lot of dishes left on the table. Today, because of the zongzi, there are a lot of fried dishes left at noon, but he went to the kitchen to bring two pots of zongzi, and in the end there were only two or three left in the pot. Zongzi is the most eaten.

Even the youngest child had almost finished one zongzi, the two older children, him and their grandfather basically ate two zongzi each, and his uncles ate three or four zongzi each. The one with the most zongzi was Cao Meng, who killed five zongzi by himself.So in this way, the few of them ate half of the pot of rice dumplings.

Fortunately, they made a lot of rice dumplings today. Forty or fifty rice dumplings were boiled in the first pot, and there should be almost as many in the second pot, and there should be another pot for the rest.

Thinking of the rice dumplings that were still cooking in the kitchen, Lu Jin got up to see if the rice dumplings were cooked, and asked his grandpa: "Grandpa, uncle, are you full? If you don't eat, I will pack up the things." Already."

"Don't eat, don't eat, let's put away the things." It was the first time that Yu Wenchang had such a full stomach, and now he felt a little unable to move after sitting for so long.This was the first time he celebrated the holiday with his son and several grandchildren after he came out of the labor camp. When he was happy, he drank a small cup with his sons. When he drank, his head would turn red, and his face and neck were red.

"Father Yu doesn't need you to come, let's clean it up." Zhang Dahe stopped Father Yu who wanted to help, and stood up to help Lu Jin clean up.

Several people helped together, and quickly brought the dishes to the kitchen.

Lu Jin put the rest of the dishes together and threw them into the space, otherwise the weather would be too hot, and the dishes prepared at noon would taste bad if eaten at night.The rice dumplings in the second pot were already cooked. He picked up the cooked rice dumplings and put them in the dustpan to filter the water. The rice dumplings just picked up still had a lot of water, and the dripping water flowed into the basin underneath.

He picked up the remaining zongzi in the pot to cook, and he looked for a bag to hold the zongzi.

The zongzi that was fished out of the first pot in front were no longer dripping, so he found a big plastic bag to put it in.After he washed the bowls and chopsticks in a large basin, he saw that there was no water left in the rice dumplings in the dustpan, so he found three bags to put them in, put them all in a basket and took them out.

Just when he came out and heard his uncle and the others said that he wanted to go back, Lu Jin handed over the zongzi he was carrying in his hand, "It just so happened that the zongzi was ready, here are the zongzi for you to take home, uncle, you take it back and save a few to eat. The rest will be distributed to colleagues in the unit. There is a bag of small portions in here, can you help me deliver it to Uncle Liu. Did you go to him about what I told you about Uncle Liu’s place last time? "

"I went to look for it, and the matter has been settled." How could Yu Jun not look for it, the person who was looking for trouble was the person he kept on top of his heart.

The group of men who made trouble were taken back by them and locked up for a few days, and the two leaders were beaten by him. The people he sent to find out the evidence of the two men's crimes. The two were sent to the labor camp for labor reform, and they are still there so far, and it is impossible to get out in a short time.

"That's good, I'm really bothering you uncles." As soon as Lu Jin heard that the matter was resolved, a relieved expression appeared on Lu Jin's face, and he stuffed a large basket of zongzi to his uncle.

Knowing that his uncle and the others would not be free during the holidays, Lu Jin didn't want to keep them here anymore.

Yu Wenchang didn't know who his son and grandson were talking about, but after asking, he found out that they were given to the doctor who treated his little grandson. And send a little more to go.

"Let's think about it... It's not easy to buy vegetables in the town. Uncle, when you deliver rice dumplings, help me deliver some food to Uncle Liu." Since his uncle helped to deliver, Lu Jin went to his own vegetable garden The son went to pick a basket of melons.At this time, all kinds of melons are the most common in the vegetable garden, and the only green vegetables are dried and pickled.

So when my uncle and Zhang Dahe left, not only did the three of them sit in a car, but they also brought several large baskets of food.

Lu Jin looked at the car with three people and so many things in it. He was really worried that the sidecar fell off halfway, and he sent someone out to the door. He reminded worriedly: "Uncle, you are driving on the road. Slow down, safety first, it’s not too far behind.”

"I know, I know, you go back, I don't drive fast. Dad, let's go, I will see you when I have time next time." Yu Jun waved to his father and nephews, stepped on the accelerator, and the car started went out.

Seeing the car leave, Lu Jin took his grandfather and a few children back home, and closed the yard door behind his back.In the afternoon, his grandfather and the three children took a bath, went to bed, and took a nap. He went to the kitchen to cook the leftover rice dumplings, picked out a few small portions, and prepared to give them away.

At noon they boiled a large pot of soup, and there was still half of the pot left. He made a bowl of soup with a bowl, and went out with a bag of rice dumplings, knocked on the door of the neighbor next door, and sent the soup and rice dumplings to gave to the neighbors.

His Aunt Qin's house also made zongzi, so he didn't give it to Aunt Qin's house.

But I don't know if there are zongzi made by his uncle's mother. Lu Jin sent a set of rice dumplings to Aunt Qin's place. When he went to Aunt Qin's place, he met his uncle and said hello to him. .

Wang Meili saw that her nephew brought them zongzi. The zongzi was wrapped in meat. Their family just wrapped a few sweet zongzi with rice and dates, so they were reluctant to make such good zongzi.Seeing that her nephew was so willing to give them something, Wang Meili was both moved and said politely: "You child, why are you still sending rice dumplings to us? We made rice dumplings ourselves and were thinking about giving them to your family." How many to send?"

"What's yours is yours, and what we send is ours. You don't need to send it to our house. We still have zongzi at home. Just keep yours and eat." Lu Jin also went to several other houses to deliver zongzi. The uncle and his cousins ​​said hello and he was ready to leave.He has been busy since he got up in the morning, and he wants to quickly deliver the zongzi and go home to take a bath and sleep for a while.

"Oh, wait, wait before leaving." Wang Meili hurriedly asked her son to hold her nephew, and hurriedly found a basket and filled some rice dumplings for her nephew. Take a few back to eat."

"What's the use? We all have zongzi in our family." Lu Jin didn't expect that he would return the gift when he sent zongzi. When he saw the half-basket of zongzi stuffed by his aunt, he saw that there was nothing left on the table. He's here too much.

"Didn't you say it all, what belongs to your family belongs to your family, what we give is what we give, it's different." Wang Meili returned to him what his nephew said just now.

"...I'll just take a few sticks, I can't finish eating so much." Seeing that he couldn't refuse, Lu Jin reluctantly took four sticks, and returned the rest to his auntie.After saying hello to his uncle and several cousins, he went outside.

Later, he also went to Lu Enhua and Lu Shan's house to deliver zongzi.

I went to Lu Enhua's house to deliver rice dumplings because they often took the tractor driven by the other party to the town. Although the tractor was the property of the collective, the other people deliberately adjusted the time to match the time when they arrived in the town. It was actually for their convenience.He also sent a few zongzi to Lu Shan's house because this young man was enthusiastic and helped them several times. Lu Jin remembered those who bullied them, and he also remembered those who helped them.

He went to these two families to deliver zongzi, and when he left, both families were stuffed with zongzi as a gift for him.

When he came out of Lu Shan's house, Lu Jin still walked for a while, found a broken house at the end of the village, knocked on the door of the house, stuffed a small old lady with a small basket of rice dumplings, and told the old lady Madam, don't put it down in hot weather, so she turned around and left.

"Hey……"

The old lady looked at the boy who had gone away, and wanted to catch up and return the things, but she saw the boy run away.Touching the still warm zongzi in the basket, the old man's eyes were a little moist, and the granddaughter who came from behind called her, "Grandma, who was that brother just now?"

"What is brother doing here?"

"Brother is here to bring us rice dumplings, little girl, go into the house, and grandma will peel the rice dumplings for you to eat." The old lady took her little granddaughter back to the house, and closed the door of the house behind her back.

Braving the sun in the afternoon, he went out to deliver a round of rice dumplings and came back. Lu Jin's face was hot from the sun. He took his clothes to the bathroom and took a cold shower. After coming out, he felt a little cooler.The children and grandpa in the house were still taking a nap, so he also climbed onto the bed and fell asleep shortly after he closed his eyes.

This sleep lasted until three or four o'clock in the afternoon, and the family got up one after another.

Everyone ate rice dumplings at noon and were not very hungry until the afternoon. There was still soup, vegetables and rice dumplings left over at noon. Lu Jin simply didn’t make new ones for dinner. He just reheated the soup and vegetables left over in the morning. The family still ate the same as at noon.

After dinner in the evening, the adults of the two families took a group of children to swim in the river. Many adults and children in the village took off their clothes and went into the water to play. There is a river outside their village. The adults and children in the village Most of them can swim, and the naked children are as flexible as fish in the water.

Even little Bao'er could swim behind her brothers for a while.

When they finished swimming and went home, a group of children were all happy.

In the evening of this day, when it was almost dark, Mrs. Lu hid a small bag from the outside and returned home. As soon as she got home, she went into the kitchen to cook medicine. He went into his daughter's room with a bowl of Haloxylon medicine.

"what……"

Not long after, there was a woman's scream in the room.

Author's gossip: There will be two more chapters tonight, no more.
