Rebirth in 1958: Getting rich starts from Nanluoguxiang

Chapter 150 Every day of life is like a joke

Qin Dabao went to the study upstairs. Grandma was wearing reading glasses and teaching Wenwen to read. Erbao was reading a book beside her.

Wenwen is now becoming more and more like her younger brother, and she will definitely become a top student in the future.

As soon as Wenwen saw her brother, she jumped off the chair. Dabao picked Wenwen up and kissed her.

"Did you listen?"

Wenwen smiled and nodded vigorously: "I'm so obedient. Grandma even praised me today." Her little gap tooth was exposed.

Qin Dabao walked over and rubbed his brother's head. Erbao was so engrossed in reading that he realized his brother was standing in front of him.

"elder brother."

"Pay attention to your posture when reading; don't hunch your back."

"knew."

Grandma took off her glasses, smiled and nodded. This eldest grandson is so awesome. His younger brothers and sisters all respect him. This is a sign of a prosperous family. It is very important to have a leader.

"Grandma, I'm going to cook. Wenwen, do you want to go downstairs with your brother?"

Wenwen shook her head: "I still have two articles to finish."

Qin Dabao put Wenwen on a chair and went downstairs to cook.

He went into the kitchen and started to work. His three sisters brought small stools and sat at the kitchen door to keep him company.

Lu Tong looked pitiful: "Brother, we don't have enough to eat at school. We only have a steamed bun and a bowl of cabbage soup for one meal. Look at your two precious sisters, how thin they are!"

Qin Dabao looked back and saw that indeed, the eye sockets of the two sisters were sunken and their faces were a little yellow. It was obvious that they were malnourished. Even their family was like this, so one could imagine what the children from ordinary families would be like.

Dabao sighed secretly, took out the things in the sack one by one, washed an apple for each of his three sisters, and asked them to hold it and eat it.

The wild boar meat has been cleaned up in the space, and we just need to cut the meat into pieces later.

The two rabbits had already been soaked in the spiritual well water. They were taken out, drained, and marinated with peppercorns, star anise, and bay leaves.

Dabao chatted casually while working: "Tongtong, where is Aunt Xu?"

"There's nothing in the food store today. Aunt Xu, go to the kitchen to see if there's anything available."

"Oh, Niuniu, are apples delicious?"

"It's delicious..." The apple that little Niuniu was holding was bigger than her face, and she got the food all over her face.

Lu Li was also smiling while eating: "Brother, this apple is so sweet, where did you buy it?"

"A friend brought this back from the south. It's delicious, so eat it all. Plenty of apples! By the way, Lili, go call your parents and ask them to come back for dinner tonight."

"Yes, sir!" Lu Li jumped up and made a phone call.

Qin Dabao opened the rice bucket and saw that there was still half a bucket of rice inside. Now he has replaced all the rice in his home with rice produced in the space, even the noodles.

"Brother, I can't eat it anymore..." Niu Niu held the apple high and shouted on tiptoe.

Qin Dabao squatted down, his hands were covered in oil, and he put his big face against Niuniu's little face covered in apple juice: "Be good, if you can't finish it, put it on the plate and ask your sister to wash your face and hands."

Lu Li ran back: "Brother, my dad said he has a meeting at the department tonight and won't be home for dinner. My mom will be home soon after get off work. She said, 'Big son, come on, auntie wants to eat spicy rabbit head.' That's it. Come on, Niuniu, let me wash your face."

"I'm going too!" Lu Tong also followed happily. The twin sisters are really inseparable.

Qin Dabao took out the rabbit head with a smile and started to braise it. He especially liked the atmosphere at home, it was very warm.

What he didn't know was that the guy who was trying to find out about him, Er Gou, went around and found out everything, and quickly reported it to the leader.

The eldest sister touched the little chin and said: "Is it Grandpa Lu's grandson?" She repeated it several times and nodded thoughtfully.

Aunt Xu came back carrying two cabbages and a piece of tofu.

As soon as she entered the door, she started muttering, "I don't know what's going on. It's almost Chinese New Year and the grocery store can't get any vegetables in. Didn't they say they'd bring vegetables from the south to Beijing? This guy didn't even see a single leaf."

After Aunt Xu changed her slippers, she looked towards the kitchen door and saw three little girls carrying small stools, sitting side by side with their cheeks in their hands, smelling the food.

She knew it was Dabao who came. It was strange that no matter whether it was the daughter or daughter-in-law of the Lu family, the cooking was worse than the other. Only this Dabaozi could cook as good as the chef in the restaurant.

In fact, Qin Dabao doesn't dare to brag about this. His cooking skills are far inferior to Sha Zhu's. The reason why his dishes are delicious is that he uses more oil and seasonings.

Today I will make braised pork, five-spice hand-shredded rabbit, stir-fry tomatoes and eggs, and mix some simmered cucumbers. That’s it.

When it comes to cooking skills, Dabao is definitely not as good as Shazhu, but when it comes to knife skills, Shazhu is far inferior to him.

Dabao washed three cucumbers and placed two chopsticks under them. He cut the cucumbers until the chopsticks reached the end. He could not cut the cucumbers, so he turned them over and continued cutting.

After cutting, I pulled with both hands and cut a cucumber into more than one meter long, without breaking.

The three girls, two big and one small, exclaimed in unison, their admiration for their brother flowing like a torrent of water.

Aunt Xu was also shocked. This child is too good. His knife skills are comparable to those of a state banquet chef.

She patted the three little heads one by one. It should be said that these children are very polite and well-behaved.

Lu Tong and Lu Li called out sweetly, "Auntie Xu."

Niu Niu also followed suit in a baby voice.

"You three little troublemakers, why are you sitting at the kitchen door?"

Niuniu called out, "Sister Tongtong said we have to stay with our brother."

When Aunt Xu saw that there were these three little obstacles, the space in the kitchen became smaller, so she simply didn't go in and handed the basket to Dabao.

"Dabao, I brought two cabbages and a piece of tofu from the kitchen. See if you can make something."

"Okay."

"Thank you for your hard work, Dabao. I feel relieved now that you are here."

Qin Dabao smiled and waved his hand. He cut the cucumbers and marinated them, then poured out the water. The cucumbers would be crisper and more delicious.

My younger aunt is on duty today and won't be back for dinner. My older aunt also can't come back because of something urgent, but she still called and asked me to save the rabbit head for her.

After dinner, Dabao coaxed his sister for a while and then went home. When he got home, he saw that his parents had also returned, but they looked very bad and too tired. Qin Dabao did not ask much.

Cuicui made dumpling soup, and after Qin Qingyou and the other two finished eating, they quickly packed up and went to bed.

. . . . .

The next morning, Qin Qingyou hurriedly ate a mouthful of food and went to work. He had taken two days off and felt really unhappy. His fellow workers were working overtime on production, but he took leave to do personal things. He always felt that he owed them something.

Lu Xiu'e was not in a hurry. She drank the rice porridge slowly with Qin Dabao and Cuicui. The three of them ate and talked. The Seventh Master had already been buried and it couldn't be delayed until after the New Year. Otherwise, it would be difficult to calculate the date for the sacrifice in the future.

The wild boar meat has also been distributed. Qin Qingfu presided over the distribution. Everyone in Qinjiagou, regardless of gender or age, received two pounds of pork for the New Year. The rest was shared with the whole village for a dinner on New Year's Eve. The villagers were very happy.

There is also bad news, that is, there will be no holiday for the Spring Festival this year. The requirement is to celebrate a revolutionary Spring Festival. Simply put, it means to promote revolution and production, work overtime during the Spring Festival and not go home, turning winter idleness into winter busyness.

Qin Dabao heard it and thought, "Okay! That's it! It's better to spend the New Year on Sunday than on Sunday. I have a day off.

He knew that in the next few years, other holidays except National Day would be gradually faded, which was a feature of this era.

The key point is that the workers did not go home to work overtime during the New Year, but not only did no one complain, but they were full of fighting spirit. This kind of atmosphere of unity is not seen in later generations.

So the New Year passed quietly. Qin Dabao and Cuicui returned to the village and stayed there for two days on New Year's Eve and the first day of the new year. Now only some old people, women and children were left in the village.

The other young and middle-aged people were all drawn away to build the reservoir. This was the call of the commune, which meant that in response to the work enthusiasm of the workers, we farmers should also contribute to the country's construction.

The characteristic of this era is that every day of life is like a joke. You don't know which leader comes up with an idea, and then everyone starts working on it. Today they build a reservoir, tomorrow they quarry mountains and build roads. People are kept spinning like tops, but no one says no.

The party at Master's house on the fourth day of the Lunar New Year was also cancelled. It had to be cancelled. Everyone else is working hard, and you're feasting and drinking? Are you dying?

The brothers had no choice but to ask their families to secretly send the New Year gifts to the master. This made the master and his wife very worried, but there was nothing they could do.

Under such circumstances, Qin Dabao, this piece of idle pork, finally had the day to report to the Public Security College...
