During the five days of paying public grain, Shen Chuning went out early and came back late every day. Fortunately, Zhou Yubai came back every day during these five days, sending her to work in the morning and picking her up from get off work in the evening.
She was not a hard-working person.
When collecting the public grain in the first three days, she was very enthusiastic and motivated because it was still new to her.
It didn't work in the next two days.
She just felt extremely tired and sleepy. She even fell asleep while sitting on the bicycle and leaning on the man's back when she came back from get off work.
It’s quite strange to say, in the past, when she had sex with men at night and went to work during the day, she only needed to soak in the spiritual spring water and she would be full of energy the next day.
She was too tired at night these past two days and allowed the man to do whatever he wanted, but she still couldn't wake up.
The third brother will lead the team back to the army tomorrow, so Dad told her early in the morning and asked her to come home for dinner after get off work.
Zhou Yubai rode his bike into the Shen family’s yard.
Shen Chu Ning hugged his waist and slept soundly on his back.
He hooked Shen Chuning's waist with his backhand, trying to pick her up without waking her up.
But although Shen Chu Ning now fell asleep more easily than before, he also woke up more easily.
As soon as Zhou Yubai moved, she woke up.
She rubbed her sleepy eyes and looked around, "We're here!"
"Well, we're here." Zhou Yubai put his arm around her waist and lifted her down from the back seat of the bicycle.
As soon as Father Shen saw them, he happily shouted to the kitchen: “Big brother, second brother, third brother, your little sister is back, hurry up and serve the dishes to the table, let’s eat.”
Zhou Yubai was also a sensible man. When he saw his father-in-law, he immediately handed over the cigarettes and alcohol he had brought back to his father-in-law.
Mr. Shen loves to drink, but he doesn't smoke.
He simply returned the two packs of cigarettes to him and said, "Dad will accept your wine. You can take the cigarettes back. You can use them for socializing or other purposes."
Zhou Yubai didn't look as cool as he did outside. He declined, "Dad, I brought all my stuff with me. There's no reason for me to take it back. Since you don't smoke, you can keep it for my brother-in-law's wedding in a few days."
Father Shen thought about it and agreed. The cigarettes his son-in-law bought were Golden Leaf. Although they were not the most expensive cigarettes, at 0.26 yuan a box, they were also good cigarettes.
Moreover, tobacco tickets are difficult to obtain, so villagers can generally only smoke dry tobacco or roll their own leaf tobacco. Very few people can afford to smoke rolled cigarettes.
When the eldest brother holds his wedding banquet, he will use this cigarette to entertain people, which is really impressive.
Father Shen didn't bother to be polite with Zhou Yubai, and said happily: "Okay, then I'll accept it."
Today's dinner was naturally prepared by the three brothers of the Shen family.
In addition to stewing the fish, I also made tofu buns, stir-fried pork, steamed egg custard, and stir-fried two or three vegetarian dishes.
In the past, they didn’t dare to eat like this during the Chinese New Year.
The meat for the tofu buns and twice-cooked pork was made from the meat of the piglets that Shen Chuning and Shen Zhengliang had caught before.
After Shen's father cleaned the piglets, he used the oil in the piglets' stomachs to make lard, and then fried the piglets with the lard to make jar meat.
Jar meat is not only easy to preserve, but also has a unique flavor. The fried pork is also soft and delicious.
Shen Chu Ning ate two large bowls of rice, but still felt unfull.
When she was adding her third bowl of rice, the observant Shen Zhengrong said, “Little sister, the commune has been too busy collecting public grain recently. Did you miss lunch?
Third brother tells you that health is the capital of revolution. No matter how busy you are, you still have to eat. ”
Chen Zhengxu also continued: "That's right, little sister, people are made of iron and rice is made of steel. If you don't eat, you will be hungry. Recently, the commune has a lot of work and heavy tasks. Your work is hard enough. How can you not eat?"
Shen Chu Ning looked at his two brothers in confusion.
How could the two brothers assume that she was too busy working in the commune and didn't have lunch?
"I'm done eating, you guys take your time."
Before Shen Chuning had time to say anything, Shen Zhengliang, who had been eating in silence, stood up first, said something polite without emotion, and went straight into the house.
Shen Chuning's eyes followed his second brother.
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart.
My second brother has been like this ever since the last incident.
He was like a puppet without a soul. He did everything he was supposed to do except speaking almost nothing and refusing to communicate with anyone.
Shen Qingsong watched Shen Zhengliang close the door, his face darkened with anger, and said, "My dear, don't worry about your second brother, eat."
"Why don't you have lunch in the commune? Do you have no time or do you not like the food in the commune? If you don't have time, then I have to report it to the secretary. No matter how busy or tired you are, you can't deny people lunch.
If the food is not to your liking, Dad will bring you meals starting tomorrow. It’s the slack season now and there’s not much work to do in the fields anyway. ”
As Shen Qingsong spoke, he frowned and put on the stern look of an old father.
Shen Chu Ning also temporarily put the matter of his second brother behind him, and said with a smile: "Dad, eldest brother, third brother, I had lunch at noon. And I ate such a big lunch box."
As she spoke, she compared the size of her lunch box with her hand.
"Really?" Shen Zhengrong was a little skeptical.
"Really!" Shen Zhengrong said firmly.
"It seems that Yubai is quite good at nourishing people. You can eat a lot more than before." Shen Zhengrong said.
Shen Chuning: …
Before the third brother said anything, she hadn't noticed it. But after he said that, she seemed to eat a lot more than before.
