After Zhou Chunxiang returned home, she sighed several times.
Her husband Zheng Guang was peeling peanuts. When he heard Zhou Chunxiang's movement, he immediately turned around and asked her: "What's the matter? Did you see something at Lu's house?"
Zhou Chunxiang's expression was very mysterious: "Do you know what I just saw at Lu's house?"
Zheng Guang: "You look like you saw a ghost."
"Weirder than seeing a ghost! The youngest son of the old Lu family is quite nice to his wife..."
"Didn't you say the gunpowder barrel and the chili peppers?"
Zhou Chunxiang smiled: "Then do you know what will happen if the chili peppers are fried in a gunpowder barrel?"
"What? You will have to be hospitalized."
"It will be fried into chili sauce. It's so sticky."
Zheng Guang: "What are you talking about? What did you see at Lu's house?"
"I went to Lu's house today, and happened to meet the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the old Ma family, I didn't want to leave right then and there, I knew something was going to happen..." Zhou Chunxiang told Zheng Guang the whole story.
"You didn't see it, the young daughter-in-law ran away."
"She's such a mean mother-in-law."
Zheng Guang: "It's the same kind of mess in every family, just bear with it and it will go away. The daughter-in-law of the old Ma family is very tolerant."
"That's true."
But unexpectedly, the old Ma family had a quarrel in the middle of the night, and Yang Yue packed her bags and said she wanted to go back to her parents' home to live, and she also said that she "wouldn't marry a sissy, and wouldn't be the wife of a eunuch."
But the group of people around who were trying to persuade them to quarrel heard... they didn't know what to say?
The son of the old Ma family was a coward, and he was indeed a bit of a coward.
Someone tried to persuade them: "Xiao Yang, you are so angry, don't say anything nonsense. How can the man you married be a sissy? Why is he an eunuch? Can an eunuch have children with you? You still have a fat boy."
"He is so timid and has no idea at home. He is not a sissy, but he is also a eunuch. The couple..." Yang Yue was so angry that she poured out all the nonsense.
Others heard: "..."
This, this, this... The life of this young couple is really hard. They don't know how to persuade them.
Her mother-in-law Mo Jixiang was even more angry after hearing this: "What are you talking about? You little daughter-in-law, do you still want to make trouble?"
"Bah, you are just a useless person, a sissy, a dead eunuch! I would rather die with you than be a widow." Once a person who can endure explodes, the power is more desperate than those who are usually bad-tempered, because they either don't explode, or once they explode, it must be the most decisive.
Years of resentment accumulated to this day, Yang Yue would not live with this dead eunuch. She originally had a job, but her mother-in-law would not let her do it. She insisted that she do housework and take care of the children at home, and gave her job to her nephew, saying that it was for her own good and not to let her go out to work.
Day by day, Yang Yue had had enough. She could still tolerate it before because she felt that her husband was sincere to her, but he was soft-hearted and could not prevail against her mother.
But now she finally realized what it meant to be "those in power are confused, while those who are watching can see clearly".
Her husband was soft-hearted? He liked her? He had to let her suffer because of his mother's power?
Ugh!
This mother and son were just a bunch of sticks and dates, playing her like a fool from beginning to end?
If he really liked her and valued her, would he let his own mother abuse her like this?
After being played by this mother and son for so many years, she was unwilling to be a fool anymore and saw the true face of this family as soon as possible.
"You woman? Are you crazy?" Ma Baoshou, the son of the Ma family, looked at the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in front of him in disbelief. He didn't know what happened today to make Yang Yue crazy.
"Damned eunuch!!" Yang Yue had been guarding this good-for-nothing for several years, and today she finally got her revenge by scolding him.
Ma Baoshou's face turned pale with anger. He was originally a tall man of 1.8 meters, which was why he managed to scare Yang Yue during the blind date. But after they got married, she found out that he was a hunchbacked good-for-nothing who listened to his mother in everything. He did nothing at home, like a waste, and he didn't go to work, but lived on his father's pension.
"You tall guy don't do anything serious all day long. You always listen to your mother. Your mom has cut off your thing a long time ago! It can't even get hard! You have no spine!!"
"Don't be a stupid woman, only stupid women marry eunuchs."
"Mo Jixiang! You said that yourself."
"You castrate men's xx, and you always succeed! My son can't be cut off by you..." "
Son, if you have some backbone, you will go with your mother. Otherwise, you don't have Little Jiji, and I don't want a eunuch son like you, bah!"
Mo Jixiang rolled his eyes in anger.
People around who were trying to persuade them to quarrel: “???!!!!”
…
Yang Yue revealed a lot of things that shocked everyone in the rest home. There were so many new things happening every day. “Didn’t the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law just go to the Lu family to learn how to sew big fish? Why did they cause such a commotion when they returned?”
“What happened at the Lu family?”
Zhou Chunxiang was the only person who knew about the situation and she was also a well-known big mouth. She quickly shared it with everyone: “It wasn’t about the Lu family. When they were on their way back, her mother-in-law said something that irritated her.”
“What did she say?”
“Lu said that their family tradition is to pamper the daughter-in-law. Mo Jixiang said that a woman should serve a man. If she pampers her daughter-in-law, she is not a man and has no masculinity, just like a sissy eunuch.”
“She also said that only fools marry eunuchs.”
"The daughter-in-law of the Ma family must be feeling sad and unbalanced when she thinks of herself."
"Why is she unbalanced?"
"Huh!" Zhou Chunxiang shook her hand suddenly, "Can't you see that?"
"Because she found out that she is the stupid woman."
"Didn't you see how she curses?"
"I can't stand it anymore."
According to the tide time, the Wang family and the Lu family agreed to go to the beach to play in the sea. The adults picked oysters, shrimps and crabs, all holding small buckets. Zhou Zhou and Dumpling were too young, so Qin Rou picked up a big starfish for them to touch.
This time we went to catch a high tide. There were many species on the beach, and the marine animals were particularly arrogant, especially the crabs, which walked across the beach with their claws wide open.
"Mom, mom, crabs!"
"Stay away from the crabs, don't get caught."
...
It was very quiet around them. In addition to the two families, there were also some fishermen from the surrounding area who came to catch the high tide. In the 1970s and 1980s, you could really pick up a lot of things by catching the sea, and later as a tourist, you could really join in the fun.
Because the transportation was not well developed at that time, there were only a few people on the beach? So many seafoods are caught every day that the fishermen nearby cannot consume them all. The supply exceeds the demand. This is why seafood is not worth much at this time, and the fishermen are also poor.
Not many people come to catch the sea, and there are many good things on the beach. Qin Rou looked around and found that the scenery on the seaside is so beautiful. Of course, the beach is also the same, which is very much like mud, mud and various small puddles.
Catch the sea is like shopping for treasures. Qin Rou has a lot of gains this time. She also picked up abalone and sea cucumber. She happily showed off to Lu Yan: "Look what I picked up?"
"Awesome." Lu Yan praised his wife.
Lao Wang took a look over here and found that it was just an ugly sea cucumber. He said disdainfully: "Why did you pick this up? The other day my grandson brought back several big bags of abalone seafood, my God..."
"Tsk tsk tsk tsk..."
Qin Rou: "..." We have to have some fun, right?
"Shrimp fishing is quite interesting..."
Except for her, it seems that no one is interested in fishing. Sigh, in the past, parents would take the kids to fish in the sea on family trips, and go to farmhouses to spend money to experience the "ten yuan a time" rice planting activity.
And at this time...
there is no need to experience it, this is the daily life. The troops in the base also have a strong atmosphere of life. All the companies raise pigs and grow vegetables on their own. Each company has its own vegetable garden. There is even a happy thing that the company was caught stealing vegetables in the middle of the night. The companies steal vegetables from each other to change their tastes.
"These oysters are really big." It must be said that the oysters here, that is, oysters, are very big. Qin Rou has eaten oysters from Jiaodao several times at her parents-in-law's house. When the big pot is steamed, the oysters in the pot are placed neatly, flat and horizontally. When the pot is opened, the oysters open, and the juice in the shell has not yet flowed out, then the old man's way of eating is to pick up the oysters and suck a mouthful of the sweet and boiling oyster juice. It is really delicious, stealing freshness!
But eating too much steamed seafood is also very monotonous, Qin Rou wants to eat barbecue.
She pulled Lu Yan and borrowed a beach hut from the fishermen on the seaside. It is the place where fishermen usually rest. They bought fresh seafood and charcoal and grilled seafood next to the hut.
Wang Guanjun, the big sister, took the children to play in the sand on the beach. Zhou Zhou and Dumplings piled up their little city, and Xia Mingxi wanted to bury himself.
Qin Rou took out the ingredients that had been prepared long ago. She swallowed her saliva and wanted to roast garlic oysters.
Lu Yan helped her to light a fire. Qin Rou planned to roast oysters on the iron mesh, and also lit a stove on the other side. Children can't eat too much barbecue, they have to eat steamed or boiled food.
After the garlic sauce is fried, pour it on the oyster meat and grill it on the fire. After a while, you can see the sizzling smoke. The smell of grilled oysters is extremely overbearing. The fresh smell spreads far away and makes people's stomach growl when they smell it.
Comrade Lao Lu and Lao Wang went together to buy loose beer. The beer was produced by the beer factory. They also brought some beer beans. Sometimes you can see a lot of iron beer barrels on the street. They are for selling beer. The closer to the brewery, the fresher the beer is.
The beer was brought back in an enamel pot.
When plastic bags were not popular, this kind of enamel pot was really useful.
"What are you grilling? It smells so good?"
"There are grilled oysters, grilled fish, grilled swimming crabs..." Qin Rou cut open a green kumquat that she brought from a long way. It was frozen when she brought it here. Now that it has been thawed, there is still juice inside. She poured it on the grilled fish. Qin
Rou picked up a large grilled oyster filled with garlic. This oyster was really big. The layers of oyster meat looked particularly delicious. The aroma of garlic and oysters was fragrant. It was sprinkled with some chopped green onions. Once it entered the mouth, it was so fresh that it burned the tongue. It was sweet and fresh, and there was a strange garlic aroma.
Asked how it felt after eating one?
It was just like Zhu Bajie eating the ginseng fruit. Before you could taste it, it had already gone into your stomach.
Qin Rou didn't rush to eat the next one, but poured herself a glass of beer and took a sip. It was smooth and not bitter at all. She could feel a strong fragrance. It was so refreshing to eat barbecue and drink beer.
What a comfortable day.
Of course, if you eat too much seafood with wine, gout is not far away. Take it easy .
Zhou Zhou and Jiaozi and a few other kids gathered around. Qin Rou fed them grilled oysters, but the two kids stared at the beer in the cup, not knowing what kind of juice it was. "Mom, can I drink it?" "
No, this is wine, and children can't drink."
"Wait until you grow up."
"How old?"
"As old as your father."
"I'll take you to see hops in a few days..."
Lao Lu and Lao Wang sat together drinking and eating barbecue. Lao Wang took a big sip of wine heartily: "Lao Lu, your wife is a really good cook."
"The oysters are delicious."
"With wine, I'd rather live like a god."
Lao Lu squinted his eyes and silently enjoyed the sea breeze. After drinking, he poured himself a glass. What a comfortable life.
Jiang Ping appeared like a ghost behind him and reminded him calmly: "Drink less, or you two will end up in the hospital."
"What's that?"
Lao Lu said arrogantly: "If something happens, won't you be there to give first aid?"
Jiang Ping laughed: "You've been my bedfellow for so many years, don't you know I'm a quack?"
Lao Lu: "..."
Lao Wang: "Hahaha..."
After finishing the barbecue, they took the children to the sea while it was cloudy. The waves were calm and gently hit the shore. Lu Yan took the two kids to the water and carried them out again.
"It's so bitter..."
"Pah pah pah..."
Qin Rou laughed at them: "Okay, okay, you can also put some salt on your bodies."
She doesn't like to go into the sea, especially with long hair. When she comes out of the sea, the salt will seep out of her hair when it dries.
"Go back and rinse yourself with water. Don't lick yourself, silly dumpling." How did she raise such a stupid son?
Did he eat too much salt?
"Mom, it's so bitter..."
Qin Rou: "..."
"Lu Yan, didn't you give this child enough sea water to drink?"
"No more sea water."
The vacation days passed quickly. In September, Zhao Jianghong and Ye Mingxiu went to Jiaodao and contacted several old friends. They agreed on a time and treated them to a meal in a state-owned hotel.
