60s Splendid Life

"This... aunt Bowen brother, why did you send us so many things." Lu Jin was stuffed with two baskets in his hand, and then looked at the big bag of millet that Lu Bowen brought to him from the car .

He sent two pieces of tofu and a bowl of meat today, and now he has sent him so many things?And it looks like he still has to make money?Lu Jin was a little dumbfounded.

"Why can't you, then you send something to our house. Not much, you keep it at home to eat, and it's not for you alone. You have a few Chenchen Xiaobao at home. Push it back and forth , next time, don't send things to the aunt's house." Aunt Qin stopped Lu Jin from returning the things to them, and gave her son a wink.

Lu Bowen received his mother's wink, smiled and told Lu Jin that there was still something to do at home, put the millet in the house, and then pushed the cart away.

"Hey, brother Bowen, don't go so fast!" Lu Jin looked at the person he called out to run faster, and chased him to the door but didn't catch him.

"Come back, don't chase after me, brother Bowen still has things to do."

"Ma'am, this is really..."

"You take what is given to you. If you want to send it back, we will have to send it to you later."

Aunt Qin pulled back Lu Jin who was chasing to the door, and prevented him from chasing others.

"Why is there another child?" Several children in the yard were running, and it seemed that there was an extra child?After asking, I found out that it was the brother of a friend who came today and stayed at their house as a guest.Seeing the beautiful picture with two braids, Aunt Qin mistook it for a little girl, and even praised: "This little girl is so handsome."

"..." Lu Jin, that's not a little girl, it's a little boy!

But without giving him a chance to explain, Aunt Qin was afraid that he would return the things, so she turned her head and went out, "The bowls at Auntie's house haven't been washed yet, Auntie is going back first, you go to Auntie's house to play when you have time .”

"Xiumei, take the eldest Mao and Ermao to play here for a while before going back." Seeing that the two grandsons refused to go back with them, Aunt Qin asked her daughter-in-law to play with Lu Jin for a while before going back.

"Okay, I'll take them back to take a bath later." Wang Xiumei replied, watching her mother-in-law followed her husband one by one, and she took her two sons who refused to go home to play at other people's homes for a while.

Big Mao and Er Mao are the only two brothers who play together at home. When they come to play at a neighbor's house, a group of older brothers and sisters play with them. The brothers are very willing to stay at other people's houses to play.

Lu Jin took out a few gifts from the big bag of gifts that Shen Yu sent today, and each child gave one, and put the rest in the bag without taking them out.

"Oh, why do you still bring out so many things for them to play with?" Wang Xiumei saw that these toys were new, and saw that Lu Jin gave back one to each of her two sons. Although she said don't give it to them, look Seeing the smiles on the faces of her two sons when they were holding toys, she also knew that children liked them.

"It's okay, it's just for children to play with." Lu Jin brought a stool over and poured him another glass of water, "Sister-in-law, please sit here, I'll sweep the yard."

"Hey, okay, how about I help you." Wang Xiumei said.

"No, no, I'll just sweep around the corner." Lu Jin went over and released the chickens, ducks, and geese that were locked in the corner, and ran around the yard creaking. Go in with a broom and clean up the hut where the chickens and ducks are kept.

The children were very happy to get the toys. They chased each other in the yard, and the sound of laughter filled the whole courtyard.

The children, who were tired from running, lost their toys and gathered around to tease the chickens, ducks and goose cubs. These little creatures were not afraid of people at all, and chirped around the children.

This is the first time that Shen Xing has seen such a small chicken, duckling and goose cub. Seeing these fluffy animals, he couldn't help but want to grab them. He held a duckling cub with both hands. He hugged him in his arms and asked Brother Xiaojin: "Brother Xiaojin, can I take this chick home?"

Lu Jin turned his head and looked, "...that's a duck." Sure enough, it was a child who grew up in the city, and he couldn't tell the difference between chickens and ducks. "If you like it, you can take two back with you when you go back." It happened that they There are four ducks, two of them go out and there are two left.

"Brother Xiaojin, you're so kind!" Child Shen Xing hugged the cute little duck, and the little tug on top of his head made him look as cute and cute as the little duck he was holding in his arms.

"Xingxing, you are so stupid, that one of yours is a duck, and this one is a chicken." Lu Haochen caught a chick and told his younger brother, which one is a chicken and which one is a duck, "And the two of them are geese."

Child Shen Xing stared at the small animals on the ground with a confused look on his face, as if asking: Is there any difference between them?

Lu Jin cleaned up the hut where the chickens and ducks were raised, drove the group of chickens, ducks and two goslings back inside and locked them up, and cleaned the outside yard. A group of children were still running in the yard, Did not go outside.

The children took the grass they cut today and fed it to the chickens and ducklings. Two little geese would peck at it, but the chickens and ducklings didn't like it.

Lu Qinglian also hugged her little brother to see the chicks and ducklings.

Several children ran over there to play. After cleaning the floor, Lu Jin went to the room and poured out a glass of water. He sat down next to his sister-in-law Xiumei, and the two of them sat talking together.Wang Xiumei talked about the gossip they had at the dinner table today, and said to Lu Jin: "You have this skill, if you can open a tofu shop in our village, we will have a place to buy tofu if we want to eat it in the future."

"...This matter is not impossible." Lu Jin thought, and felt that it was not impossible to open a tofu shop. He was worried that he could not find any decent and profitable livelihood in the village, and now Wang Xiumei's words reminded him over him.It's just that the existence of private individuals is not allowed yet. In order to avoid some troubles, this tofu shop cannot be opened in his own name, and it is best to open it in the name of the brigade.

Lu Jin told Wang Xiumei about his thoughts, but it is best to get the consent of the captain, "Sister-in-law, go back and talk to the aunt and the captain, if the captain can agree, in the village Give us a place to make a tofu shop here, and we will be able to open a tofu shop soon. I can show my skills and teach everyone how to make tofu."

"Are you really willing to teach everyone the craft?" It's not that Wang Xiumei doesn't know how precious the craft is now. Some families have relied on the craft of making tofu for generations. Now Lu Jin wants to make the craft of tofu. Teach them all?

Is there anything wrong with this?

Lu Jin paused for a moment, then realized that nowadays people with a bit of craftsmanship are hiding it and are reluctant to spread it to the outside world. It's not like searching the Internet for whatever dish you want to cook decades from now, and all the tutorials will come out.So now if he is willing to teach everyone how to make tofu, it is equivalent to teaching others the craft he knows, "Yes, no problem."

If he teaches everyone how to make tofu, the people in the village will remember him as a good one. In the future, if the brothers and sisters have anything to do in the village, everyone can help them, and it will not be in vain for him to master this craft. Come out and teach everyone.

For himself, making tofu is just one of the many foods he can cook. Lu Jin never thought of making money by making tofu. It is really hard to make money from making tofu, but if it is made by others, then It's different.

The sun was setting, and seeing that it was going to be dark soon, Wang Xiumei didn't bother other people's houses anymore, and took her two sons to go home, and turned to Lu Jin and said, "I'll take the two of them back to take a bath. , you have to come to our house to play tomorrow when you are free."

"Okay, sister-in-law, you go slowly." Lu Jin sent Wang Xiumei and the others out, and closed the courtyard door behind his back and bolted it.

The water in the kitchen stove was still hot, so he went into the house and took out the wooden basin for bathing and placed it in the yard. He took two barrels of well water with the wooden bucket and poured them into the basin. The bucket of hot water came out to soak, and the three boys took off their clothes and went to take a bath.

Her elder brother refused to let her take a bath with her younger brothers, so Lu Qinglian went back to the house to get her clothes, carried the wooden bucket to fetch water, and went to the bathroom to take a bath.

After the children in the family took a bath, Lu Jin drove them all to the kang in the house to write, and asked his sister to watch over the younger brothers, before he packed his clothes and went to take a bath.

After taking a bath, he came out to rub the clothes in a basin, washed them and hung them on the bamboo poles outside, stepped into the door of the house, and heard the laughter of the children in the house, his face couldn't help it. smiled.

It was already dark outside, and candles were lit in the house, illuminating the world on that side.

In the evening, I finished the lessons for the two older children at home, and after giving homework, I took a storybook and told stories to the other two younger children.

The storybooks were found in the pile that Shen Yu sent them today. There was a bag containing stationery for children to study and a few storybooks. Lu Jin took them out to tell stories to the children. One day, a story was not finished, and the two children nestled beside him fell asleep.

"Have you finished your homework?"

"It's finished."

"Then pack your textbooks and go to bed."

Asking the two children to pack up their textbooks for reading and move the small table to the ground, Lu Jin sent the little girl back to the next room with a light, and then returned to the room here to sleep with the three boys.He didn't lock the door of the house, afraid that the little girl who slept next door would come to him in the middle of the night.

He didn't enter the space until the three little boys had fallen asleep. If he planned to go to town in two days, he would make a batch of popcorn and snacks, so that he could send them over to sell to Brother Hou.

Fortunately, during this period of time, I stocked up a lot of raw materials. Machines are used to make popcorn. As long as the materials are prepared and put into the machine, you can make them yourself.But the pastry is for him to do it himself.

Because the stock of brown sugar is running out, he doesn't plan to continue making brown sugar jujube cakes. He plans to continue making milk buns and a sliced ​​cake.Recently, there are more eggs in exchange, and he plans to make more pastries to consume these pastries.

By the time he got out of the space, the moon in the sky had already climbed into the sky.

After going outside to use the toilet, Lu Jin went back to sleep in the house, and almost fell asleep as soon as his head touched the pillow.
