Crossing 70: Fish in the Pond Have Good News

The next morning, when Xue Li came to Jiang Yu to exchange breakfast, he found that she had a new radio. He walked up to her and took a look with a hint of curiosity.

Jiang Yu took a bite of the triangular sugar bun she gave him. The mixture of lard and sugar inside was sweet and mellow, very delicious. He took another bite!

Xue Li pressed the switch and started tuning the frequency according to the logo under the button.

There was a sudden burst of noise in the backyard, and soon a voice in Northeastern Mandarin with a strong local flavor came out from the loudspeaker.

"Oh, it worked!" Xue Li happily drank a mouthful of the bacon porridge cooked with ginger and fish. He didn't even need to chew the minced meat and swallowed it directly along with the porridge. "Hmm! This meat doesn't smell very fragrant, but it tastes delicious."

When Jiang Yu got the meat, he was wondering why it had no taste. But after it was cooked, it tasted very mellow, and the porridge gave off a faint meaty aroma. Now I think Yi Chi did this on purpose, in order not to be discovered eating the meat. How clever!

Jiangyu swallowed a sugar bag, picked up another bun stuffed with tofu and meat, and started to eat it.

The two ate breakfast while listening to the radio.

After a while, the four brothers on the opposite side also poked their heads in with bowls in their hands, "Sisters, what's new?"

"Come in and listen together." Jiang Yu pointed to the short stools stacked up by the door and asked them to take them out and sit on them.

Fu Biao was the most active and quickly took down a stool.

But Chen Jinghan was the quickest, and took the stool from him, sat down next to Xue Li, looked at the radio, and asked curiously, "When did you get it?"

"I just got it yesterday." Jiang Yu didn't say how she got it. Anyway, everyone has their own ways, and she was just one step ahead of them.

Fu Biao was the last person to sit down because of his brother's quick eyes and hands. He kicked Chen Jinghan's butt with his toes in dissatisfaction. When he saw Chen Jinghan turning around, he quickly rolled his eyes. It was too late and the man turned back and missed it.

Chen Jinghan had already gotten what she wanted, so she didn't care about her brother rolling his eyes. She turned back and took a sip of corn porridge while listening to the radio.

Because it is a local station, it mainly talks about people's livelihood. Recently it is time to deliver grain, so it focuses on the grain production situation in the surrounding areas of the city.

Xiong Lijin listened for a while and then quietly expressed his opinion, "Then everyone's income should be good this year. The industry here is relatively developed, and the income of the working class is considerable. In addition, the grain yield in the countryside is high, so every household can have a good year this year." How about going to the south to buy some goods to sell? While we can still go out now.

"In recent years, due to the optimization of grain varieties, the output in various places has increased a lot. It's great that everyone can have enough food to eat." Wu Aiqing grew up in the countryside and is naturally aware of the changes in the countryside over the years, so he is particularly happy.

Jiang Yu is not interested in anything else, but when it comes to having a full stomach, she is still satisfied. Every time she sees the growth of crops in the fields, she feels sincerely satisfied.

It’s great that there is food everywhere and we don’t have to go hungry. Not only can we fill our stomachs, but we can also have snacks. It is true that peacetime is the happiest time.

After breakfast, Fu Biao asked everyone about their plans for the day.

Xiong Lijin was going to town to discuss with his partners whether to purchase goods.

Xue Li didn't want to go out today, so he planned to fry pine nuts at home.

Chen Jinghan naturally stayed to help her.

Wu Aiqing said he was going to the town to sell medicinal herbs. He had prepared another batch of herbs and was ready to sell.

Fu Biao said he was going to collect firewood because he felt that the firewood stored by everyone was not enough.

Jiang Yu also wanted to go up the mountain. Although there was enough meat in the space, she still wanted to go for a walk. "I will bring some firewood back when I go down the mountain."

"Then give me the pine nuts and fry them together. If there is time, also get some walnuts and hazelnuts." Xue Li stood at the door and asked Jiang Yu to take out the nuts.

Jiang Yu said yes, walked around the stove and climbed onto the bed, pretending to search in the wooden cabinet, but actually took out three cloth bags, took out some things from the space, packed them separately, and handed them to Xue Li, "Then thank you for your help."

"What's the trouble? It's just right for warming ourselves by the fire." Xue Li picked up his things and went back to his room.

Jiang Yu washed the dishes and hung them aside, then changed into clothes suitable for going into the mountains, took the kitchen knife he had just acquired yesterday, carried the empty backpack and water bottle, and went into the mountains again.

Fang Qianqian in the front yard looked at Jiang Yu's back, feeling a little jealous and melancholy. She sighed and went into the house with the thermos that had just been filled with water.

Chen Xiaohua followed behind her, wondering why she sighed, but then he thought about how Guan Wenbin and Ma Yanna had been becoming more and more intimate recently, and suddenly he felt a little uncomfortable.

Liu Qiang walked past her calmly and whispered, "The back hill."

Chen Xiaohua paused slightly, then returned to his room as if nothing had happened.

Guan Wenbin was standing at the door of the outermost room, watching Ma Yanna combing her hair.

Since she let go of herself, her life has become better. Even if those men were not well-off, they would send her gifts from time to time, and even Guan Wenbin was no exception.

Although he still had a lot of calculations in his mind, he was, after all, a young boy who had tasted the forbidden fruit for the first time, and he always had some inexplicable feelings for the first woman.

Ma Yanna was not ugly, although her face shape was not good, but her hairstyle modified it. She had big eyes, and she learned some tricks from some beautiful mature women and widows in the village, and she would wink at men with a hook. She put her braid on her chest, looked at Guan Wenbin, and opened her red lips, "Does it look good? Brother Wenbin."

Guan Wenbin took a look at her. She was wearing a blue cotton jacket today, which made her look fairer. Her long, smooth braid went around her ears. The hair on her temples had a natural curve, which made her chin look pointed. "She looks good."

The two smiled at each other, and then left the educated youth point together.

He Yuanchao, who had been silent and pretending to be dead, slammed the quilt after the others walked away, "No, we must move out. We can't live with this vixen anymore. Not to mention whether we will get sick or not, when her crime is exposed, living in the same room with her... No, all the women in this educated youth center will have a terrible reputation." She whispered to herself, her eyes rolling around. Not only was she thinking about moving out, she was also thinking about finding someone to marry as soon as possible. Reputation is of different importance to unmarried and married women.

Because Xue Li wanted to fry nuts, she had to ask Cui Xiaofen to come and help. She said goodbye to Chen Jinghan and hurried out.

From a distance, I saw Ma Yanna and Guan Wenbin were acting as if no one was around, occasionally hooking their fingers and pretending to touch shoulders. That would have been fine, Ma Yanna also greeted the married men in the village naturally and intimately, and Guan Wenbin actually accepted it well and greeted them along with her.

What is this operation?

Xue Li didn't understand, but she was shocked.

Walking all the way to Zhuang Shouren's house, her three views were severely damaged. She decided to wait for Jiang Yu to come back in the evening, and have a night talk with the sisters, during which she must complain a lot.
