Chapter 40: Picking up things is really addictive
After spending time together yesterday, Lin Wanshu also began to like Yu Fangfang, who had a childlike nature.
Even though she was unhappy now, she was willing to coax her.
"Then let's catch some snails and take them back. Let's raise them for a few days and then I'll fry them for you, okay?"
When she came down just now, she saw a lot of snails beside the stones.
Hearing this, Yu Fangfang's eyes suddenly lit up!
"You said so, don't lie to me!"
She looked as if she would turn her back on him if he dared to lie to her.
"I'm definitely not lying to you, but you have to help me fish it out later!"
Lin Wanshu simply coaxed the person like a child.
Ji Hualan, who was standing by, couldn't help but be shocked when she heard what they said.
It turns out that Yu Fangfang is a foodie?
No wonder Lin Wanshu had such a tight grip on her.
"Wanshu, those snails smell like mud. Will they taste good if fried?"
Although Ji Hualan is also a city dweller, she has been with the army for a long time and is not as ignorant as Yu Fangfang.
When she heard that Lin Wanshu wanted to stir-fry snails, she asked curiously.
But before Lin Wanshu could respond, a sneer came from the side.
"Tsk! A redneck is a redneck."
Du Fuling glanced up and down at Lin Wanshu's simple clothes, her eyes full of superiority.
As soon as these words were spoken, before Lin Wanshu could do anything, Yu Fangfang got furious!
"Du, who do you call a country bumpkin?"
This is really outrageous. When would it be her turn to despise someone that even Yu Fangfang admires?
"You've come to join the army, but you still act like you've never seen the world. You treat all kinds of garbage as treasures. You actually gave people something like this that's full of mud to eat. What else can you be but a country bumpkin?"
Du Fuling said this with a look of disgust on her face.
But Lin Wanshu, who was ridiculed by her, did not show any inferiority or embarrassment, and remained calm and composed from beginning to end.
"I am indeed an ignorant country bumpkin. My family has been poor farmers for eight generations."
Seeing her being so open and frank, as if she didn't feel there was anything shameful about being poor, Du Fuling couldn't help but choke.
The person in front of me was clearly dressed no differently from other rural military wives, but her simple clothes could not conceal her elegance at all.
Her calmness made her previous ridicule seem even more ridiculous.
Seeing Du Fuling being humiliated, the military wives nearby all felt very happy.
In the past, every time they met Du Fuling, they felt ashamed and embarrassed.
It is normal to think that they are just ordinary people, have good family conditions and are well-informed, and look down on them.
But now, the military wives who also came from the countryside straightened their backs and faced the Shanghai people with dignity. They suddenly seemed to have gained some power.
Before Du Fuling could organize her words, someone stood up and glared at her, saying, "How did the country bumpkins give it to you? Without us country bumpkins working hard on the land, would you city people have enough to eat?"
"That's right! The Chairman said that the poorer you are, the more glorious you are. Who are you looking down on?"
"Looking at your behavior, you don't look like one of us proletarians. Could your ancestors be big capitalists?"
Even though they are all military wives from the countryside, after being influenced by their surroundings over the years, they also know how to bring a high-handed city dweller down to earth.
Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Du Fuling's face changed!
"You are slandering me! I... I am naturally a proletarian, and my family are all workers!"
It would have been better if she didn't explain. After she did, the military wives felt that she was feeling guilty.
Seeing that the situation was not right, Ji Hualan hurried out to smooth things over.
"Everyone calm down and listen to me first."
Ji Hualan was able to get along well with both sides, and as soon as she spoke, everyone else quieted down.
"Military marriages all require political review. Since Du Fuling was able to marry a soldier, it means there is no problem with her identity. We come from all corners of the country and have different living habits. Some friction is inevitable, but we can argue, but we don't want to make accusations. After all, all the men are in the same trench. They are charging in the front, and we are fighting in the back. What will it look like?"
After these words, the military wives, who were originally indignant, fell silent.
Although everyone hates Du Fuling, what Ji Hualan said is not wrong.
Their men are all brothers in the same trench and they certainly don't want them to make such a fuss.
But even though they don't scold her, it doesn't mean they accept Du Fuling.
One after another they rolled their eyes at her before returning to their seats and continuing to wash clothes.
How could Du Fuling, who was almost accused, dare to say anything?
In the end, I just found a stone in the corner to wash clothes.
Seeing that she was backing down, Yu Fangfang snorted in disdain and only washed her own clothes today.
But Feng Yandong is the one who usually washes the clothes. How would she know how to wash them clean?
Seeing that she didn't even apply soap and just kept beating her, Lin Wanshu felt helpless.
"You have to wet all the clothes, put soap on them, rub them and then beat them."
As she spoke, she demonstrated it to her.
When Yu Fangfang saw that washing clothes was so complicated, she suddenly felt sick.
I secretly decided in my heart that I must coax Feng Yandong well that night.
Otherwise she wouldn't be able to handle doing the laundry every day.
Seeing that she looked so trance-like even when learning to wash clothes, Lin Wanshu couldn't help feeling a little powerless.
She raised her hand and slapped her on the head. She glared at her and said, "Are you still going to learn? If not, I'll go catch snails."
Hearing that she would not wait for her, how could Yu Fangfang dare to slack off?
She picked up the clothes and threw them on the stone, then she smeared them with soap, rubbed them hard and then pounded them hard!
But even though she tried so hard, she was still not as good as Lin Wanshu who looked leisurely.
By the time she had finally finished pounding three pieces, the other person had already finished washing all of them.
After what happened just now, Lin Wanshu had already left a good impression on the military wives. Now seeing that she worked so efficiently, they immediately had a better impression of her.
Everyone pulled her aside and chatted with her enthusiastically.
She was not able to escape until Yu Fangfang finally finished washing the clothes.
"Let's go over there and catch some snails."
There were more and more people here, and it was inconvenient to catch snails, so Lin Wanshu pointed to the rocky beach upstream.
Yu Fangfang is now her little fan girl, so naturally she wouldn't object.
They both put their clothes into a bucket, left one empty, and headed upstream.
Fortunately, the river beach is long enough.
Although the stones become smaller as you go further away, there are still quite a few snails, and their sizes are just right, neither too big nor too small.
If the snail is too big, the tail will be full of eggs and will not taste good. If it is too small, there will not be much meat.
In those days, there was a shortage of oil and water, and seasonings were scarce. In addition, snails had a muddy smell, so no one would catch them to eat.
They are usually caught and taken back to feed the chickens.
No one was catching snails, so they were everywhere in the cracks between the rocks. After a short while, Lin Wanshu had picked up a lot of them.
At a glance, it's probably enough to make two plates.
Yu Fangfang was touching snails for the first time and was not very skilled. When she saw Lin Wanshu grab a handful with just one touch, she immediately became anxious.
"Wan Wan, don't touch everything, leave some for me to touch."
Lin Wanshu couldn't help but laugh when she heard her anxious words.
"There are plenty. I think I can get half a bucket."
By then, I'm afraid I'll have to eat snails every meal for two or three days.
Yu Fangfang didn't think it was too much. Since Lin Wanshu said she wanted to stir-fry snails for her, she believed that she could make it delicious.
It took about half an hour to fill half a bucket. There were still many snails in the river. Lin Wanshu was afraid that she couldn't carry them, so she stopped.
Yu Fangfang felt it was a pity. Looking at the snails in the water, she said with a pained look on her face: "Let's catch some more tomorrow."
Picking up things is really addictive!
