Qin Xiangju: "There are vegetarian dishes in the countryside, and I will prepare them. I have radishes, spinach, tomatoes, cabbage, green vegetables, eggs, green beans, and eggplants at home. That's all. I just want more."

Lin Yiyi said: "10 dishes, five tables, it will take a lot of oil, the oil at home is definitely not enough, I will bring it down for you when the time comes."

Qin Xiangju thought about it and realized that they did need oil. Their farm had no oil. Every New Year, their daughter-in-law would give them a pound of oil. Usually, they relied on the lard made from the meat given by their daughter-in-law. So when her daughter-in-law gave them the oil this time, she did not refuse: "Okay."

After dinner, Qin Xiangju went back home carrying about 20 shrimps.

In the blink of an eye, the weekend is here.

Early in the morning, before dawn, Lin Yiyi and Xiao Yu rode their bicycles to the countryside. They both rode bicycles and brought things that Qiao Qianzhixi would need. Lin Yiyi also brought two bags of fruit candies. Regardless of whether there were children or not, men and women could share a few pieces of candies to sweeten their mouths. The fruit candies were less than one piece per pound and the price was cheap.

When Lin Yiyi and Xiao Yu arrived, Lin Dajun and his brothers were already at Xiao's house. In the past, Lin Dajun would have played with the children, but now, Lin Dajun was sitting with several grown men and talking cheerfully. The 15-year-old boy has worked in the pig farm for more than a month, and his temperament has become more stable. The people in the pig farm are all very old, basically over 30 years old. Lin Dajun listened to his sister, talked less, listened more, and didn't ask directly when he didn't understand something. So, in this situation of listening and watching more, he gradually changed a lot.

As Lin Dajun comes into contact with more people, his words and actions are also affected, and now he is a bit like a big brother.

Lin Dajun talked to everyone about the pig farm. Of course, he didn't talk about confidential matters, but even these ordinary things made everyone happy. After all, it's rare to hear about state-owned units like pig farms. Even if the pig farm is run by the commune, in the hearts of the people, the commune represents the country, so isn't it a state-owned unit?

Lin Dajun: "Big sister."

Lin Yiyi: "Hey, you and your brothers are here?"

Lin Dajun: "I'm here. We came earlier because we knew you and your brother-in-law would be back." He walked quickly to Lin Yiyi and smiled innocently, "Sister, how much should I give as a gift today?" Before coming, his future mother-in-law had found him and told him that their sister was already married, so if they came to visit, they had to bring some gifts.

Well, for something like today, we not only need to bring food, but also share money.

In this era, the amount of money given as gifts is usually 10 cents or 20 cents. Some people are stingy and give a few cents. The most generous person does not give more than 50 cents. People who give a few cents usually come alone, and people who give 50 cents can bring their whole family. Of course, there are also shameless people who only give a few cents and bring their whole family.

Lin Yiyi looked at him, a little surprised: "You take care of it."

Lin Dajun didn't know how much to give. His future mother-in-law said that generally, close friends and relatives would give 50 cents, but for siblings like them, they could give 1 or 2 yuan. Lin Dajun thought about it and decided to give 2 yuan. He gave the 2 yuan because he was now a junior instructor in the factory. Although he only worked until the end of August and school would start in September, his sister asked him to keep the salary for this period.

He calculated that he had about 40 million yuan in salary to receive during this period, one month in August and only half a month in July, plus other benefits.

Qin Xiangju ran out: "Yi Yi is here, why are you here so early? It's still early for lunch. You guys go to the new house first and see the children playing in the new house."

Lin Yiyi: “Hey.”

Lin Yiyi went to the new house. Lin Sanjun, Lin Sijun, Lin Wudi, Xiao Rui, Xiao Zhu and some relatives' children were all playing in the new house. Actually, there was nothing fun to do. There were just a few children running around. Seeing such a house, Lin Wudi's voice came from the yard: "This is my sister's house, the same as my brother's house."

A kid nearby said, "Wow, your brother and sister are amazing."

Brother Lin Wu proudly puffed out his chest and said, "My sister is the best."

One child said, "What's so great about girls? My grandma said that girls should be obedient and give the best things to us boys."

Lin Wudi: "You are the little girl, my sister is the best."

Little boy: "How dare you call me a girl? Do you believe I will beat you up?" He thought he was taller than Lin Wudi and it was easy for him to bully him.

Lin Wudi: "I have three older brothers. I am not afraid of you."

The little boy shrank his neck. He had no brother.

Lin Wudi: "Fourth brother, fourth brother, someone wants to beat me up."

Lin Sijun ran over and said, "Whoever dares to hit you, tell me." His sister said that if there is a quarrel outside, the brothers must fight together. However, you can only quarrel with your mouth, not with your hands or feet.

Brother Lin Wu pointed at the kid and said, "He called my sister a girl and said he would beat me up."

Lin Sijun glared at him: "How dare you say that about my sister?" This was more severe than beating his brother.

Chong, "Come on, let's have a fight."

The child felt wronged: "How can you bully others? You are a big kid and you still bully others. I will tell my mother."

Lin Sijun: "Do you have any shame? You told mom about the quarrel?"

Lin Yiyi was listening on the side, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. She walked into the yard and asked, "Is everyone here?"

Lin Wudi: "Sister..." His chubby little body ran very flexibly. He looked like he was going to fall several times, but he managed to stand firmly every time. "Sister..." He ran into Lin Yiyi's arms and hugged her legs. He hadn't seen her for more than ten days, and now he found his sister so kind.

However, Lin Yiyi looked at him and felt that he had become several shades darker, and it seemed that he had been exposed to the sun a lot. But for a boy, it didn't matter if he got a little tanned.

Lin Yiyi patted his head and took out some candies from her pocket: "Give them to your friends. Everyone should have some."

Lin Wudi replied, "Yeah." Children don't hold grudges. After taking the food, they started to share it. Even the child who called himself a girl got some.

The child blushed and said thank you.

"Sister." Lin Sanjun was originally sitting quietly, but when he saw his sister coming, he came over.

Lin Yiyi: "Sanjun, have you brought the desk and cabinet that you ordered from the craftsman?"

Lin Sanjun: "I got it and left it with big brother. Do you want to go take a look?"

Lin Yiyi said, "Okay, I'll go ride my bike. Sijun, you stay here and watch over my brother."

Lin Sijun: “Hey.”

Lin Yiyi rode a bicycle and took Lin Sanjun to the Shanglin Production Brigade.

"One by one, they are back."

"Ah, isn't this Yi Yi girl? Why are you back?"

The one who greeted me was the auntie who lived next door to the Lin family.

Lin Yiyi said: "Our house has been built, and we are inviting everyone to a dinner today. Is your aunt free today? Let's go to Xiao's house for a dinner later." In modern times, most banquets are held in the evening, but in the countryside in the 1960s, most banquets were held at noon, because there was no electricity at that time, and no one could see or see at night, so no one could eat.

The aunt said, "Yi Yi, you are too polite. I won't go. During the days you were away, Sanjun and the others worked very hard. Dajun went to work, and Sanjun took his younger brothers to clean and cut pig grass every day. The corn fields began to harvest in the past two days, and Sanjun took Sijun to work, and Xiaowu followed behind them to pick up the slack. You have finally raised these younger brothers." "Raised" is a dialect, which means that the children have grown up and she doesn't have to worry about them anymore.

Lin Yiyi smiled.

She suddenly remembered the original plot. In the original plot, Daya also raised her younger brothers, but what was the result? No, it cannot be compared like this. Daya exists in the novel and is not a real person. According to the system, before she traveled through time, this world was just a novel world. It was only because of popularity that the real world was formed that she traveled through time. So, Lin Daya and the younger brothers of the Lin family were actually paper people and NPCs. All their behaviors were assigned by the author, that is, her damn colleague.

However, the real world is formed, everyone becomes a real person, and the character's personality is also transformed from the character's personality in the novel. In other words, the character's personality in the real world is the same as the character in the novel. However, they will be influenced by others, and it is not fixed.

Lin Yiyi first visited Lin Dajun's house. The pig and chicken kennels were cleaned very well. Although there was still a little odor, it was impossible to make the pig and chicken kennels odorless. There were also some corn cobs in the pig kennel, which were used by Lin's brothers to feed the pigs.

Lin Yiyi went to check out the toilet again. It was built in the style of the toilets in the county town and was also clean. There was a septic tank under the toilet, which was cleaned once a month. The septic tank was carried to the village, which was much easier than the brothers carrying septic tanks to empty it every few days.

Then, Lin Yiyi looked at the utility room next door, which contained dry firewood and corn cobs.

Lin Sanjun stood at the door, watching his sister getting her hygiene checked. He felt a little nervous, fearing that his sister might be dissatisfied in some way.

After looking at this side, they looked at a small piece of land on the other side. There were also crops planted in the small land, and a vegetable shed was built. This vegetable shed was exactly the same as the one in their county town. These younger brothers are quite good at learning and using what they have learned.

Finally, Lin Yiyi walked into Lin Dajun's house and opened the two wooden doors. Inside was a cement floor and white walls, clean and tidy. Because there was a window on the back wall, the light in the house was good. However, many houses of this era did not have windows in the main room, only doors. If the doors were closed, it would be very dark inside.

After looking at every corner of the place, Lin Yiyi was very satisfied. He said to Lin Sanjun, "In the future, you should maintain this hygiene and keep your home clean. You will feel better every day."

Lin Sanjun: “Hey.”

Lin Yiyi: "I see there are things in the other two rooms. Are you and Sijun sleeping here too?"

Lin Sanjun: "Well, Sijun is afraid to sleep alone. My eldest brother has to get up early in the morning to go to work, and I am worried about Xiaowu sleeping alone, so Sijun and I both sleep.

Here it is.”

Lin Yiyi: "It's great that you guys are like this. Brothers should be united, friendly, considerate and helpful to each other."

Lin Sanjun took out a basket from the kitchen and said, "Sister, these are baby corns. Take them back. We were planning to send them to the county town, but you came.

Lin Yiyi was not polite either. It was a little thought from her younger brothers. Seeing that Lin Sanjun talked more than usual today, Lin Yiyi was also happy.

After a while, the two went to Xiao's house.

Xiao Jia was sitting there, listening to a group of men talking. He didn't interrupt, but he listened very carefully. Seeing Lin Yiyi coming back, he stood up and asked, "So soon?"

Lin Yiyi: "It's nothing fancy. These are baby corns that the three armies found. Take them with you when you go home tonight. You can fry them and eat them tomorrow."

Xiao Yu took it and put it in the backpack in their room.

Lin Yiyi: "I'll go to the kitchen to take a look."

Xiao-Woo: "Yeah."

In the kitchen, Qin Xiangju and Lu Xiaochun were in charge of the cooking, Qi Bocai and Liang Shi were helping, Grandma Xiao was cooking, and several cousins ​​from the Qin family were helping. Lin Yiyi was not familiar with them, but everyone was very polite when they saw her come in.

Aunt-in-law of the Qin family: "Yi Yi is here. By the way, Yi Yi, do you know any gay men in your county who are looking for a partner? Look at your cousin, she is not young anymore, but she still hasn't found a partner. She is 19 years old now, and she is in a dilemma." Aunt-in-law of the Qin family just mentioned it casually. The family is worried about the affairs of the young lady.

Lin Yiyi was stunned and looked at the cousin that Qin's aunt mentioned. Actually, according to the age of this body, she is two years younger than her cousin, but unfortunately, her brother Yu is older. He is 24 years old this year.

Qin's cousin is called Qin Yuanyuan, she is 19 years old this year, and she is indeed good-looking. She may be a little dark for a girl from the countryside, but she smiles with a bit of shyness, and seems to be a girl with a good personality. Lin Yiyi said: "You have to take your time to find a partner. Instead of picking a random couple, it is better to find a satisfactory partner for your cousin. This way, your cousin will be happy, and you, aunt, will be relieved."

Qin Yuanyuan: "My cousin's wife is right, mother, don't worry."

Qin's aunt: "Don't worry, don't worry, I'm just throwing my heart into the dog's mouth." After saying that, she went out with a bucket of water.

Qin Yuanyuan sighed and chased after him.

Lin Yiyi looked at them one after another, feeling a little confused.

Qin Xiangju said, "Your cousin had a boyfriend, and they were going to get married, but the boyfriend fell in love with another girl, and your cousin was left alone."

Lin Yiyi fell

It’s not surprising. Aren’t there many such things in novels?

After a while, Qin's aunt and Qin Yuanyuan came in. Lin Yiyi saw that Qin's aunt's face looked better and even smiled. She thought, was it Qin Yuanyuan who coaxed her? If so, then Qin Yuanyuan was quite capable. After all, Qin's aunt's face was really bad just now.

After the dishes were prepared in the kitchen, they were served and the tables and chairs were placed in the Xiao family's yard. There was not enough space in the yard for five tables, so they were all placed at the entrance of the yard.

Because there was no wine, everyone just ate very fast. Some people ate elegantly, while others wolfed down their food. Lin Yiyi was used to it. Every year during the first month of the lunar year, when she and the first and third wives ate together, Qi Bocai and Liang ate like this. They ate very fast, as if someone was trying to snatch the food from them. But many people did this, fearing that if they ate too slowly, the food would be gone.

After dinner, the men sat and continued chatting while the women started to clean up. When the women finished, everyone prepared to leave. When leaving, Qin Xiangju gave each of them a handful of candy, not much, no one got 6.

After the guests left, Grandpa Xiao called everyone to the main hall.

Grandpa Xiao: "The second room will move in later, and their room will be vacant. I have told the eldest and third children before that I will sell this room to you for 60 yuan. You have thought about it for a few days. What do you think now?"

Xiao Wu: "Grandpa, we want this house." The brick house cost 60 yuan per room, which was too cheap. This way, he could save money on building a house for his son in the future. Xiao Wu was quite realistic.

Xiao Bin: "We don't have that much money, and Jixiang is still young, so let's give this house to my eldest brother and his family."

Lin Yiyi was stunned. Wasn't this what her father-in-law had told them in the county? She looked at Qin Xiangju, who didn't react, which meant that she already knew about it.

Grandpa Xiao said, "Okay, the eldest brother gives the money to the second brother, and the second brother gives the key to the eldest brother."

Qi Bocai said, "Second brother, your nephew and niece will start school in September, and we are not financially well-off. Why don't we keep the money as a debt and give it to you when we are financially well-off?"

Qin Xiangju said, "When the family was divided, you got 55 yuan. You kept all the money you earned from work points in the past two years. Even if it's less every year, there are always a dozen or twenty yuan. Oldest daughter-in-law, did you use all the money in the past two years to support your parents?"

Qi Spinach: "I don't have any. I'm... I'm buying something."

Qin Xiangju: "What did you buy? I didn't see

You have bought clothes, but I have never seen you buy meat for Xiaorui and Xiaozhu to eat. Tell me, what did you buy with your money? "

Qi Spinach: "..." My mother-in-law would give everyone a bowl of meat soup every month, and give her sons and daughters a few pieces of meat. Why would she sell meat? Of course she saved the money. She had saved 100 yuan, but she couldn't bear to take out 60 yuan. She would have to save it for a long time.

Grandpa Xiao said: "This money will not be distributed. If the eldest wife can't pay 60 yuan, the house will be given to the third wife. Of course, the third wife can't distribute the money either. You can raise the money yourselves. Whoever raises the money will get the house. Once the second wife gets the money, I will give them the key."

Xiao Bin looked at Xiao Wu and said, "Brother, what do you think? If you don't want the house, I will go and raise money."

Qi Bocai: "Old Three, can you guys borrow money?"

Xiao Bin used to be like Liang, both of them were quiet and silent. They could not say a word in ten sentences. But now it is different. After having a child, the burden on his shoulders has become heavier and he has become more stable. He knows how to fight for some things. But he still knows his limits. Their third wife has no money, but the first wife has money, so he gave up the opportunity to buy a house this time. After all, borrowing money to fight with his eldest brother is a bit embarrassing and embarrassing, and his son is still young. But now that his eldest brother doesn't want to take the money, he can fight for it.

Xiao Bin: "Can I borrow it? I need to try it first. Big brother, what do you think?"

Xiao Wu didn't think about paying the debts at the beginning. Doesn't he want to save face? Their eldest wife has money, and he still wants to pay the debts. He can't do this. Qi Bocai did mention it to him, but he didn't agree. How could he know that Qi Bocai would bring it up at this time. For a man, owing money is a very shameful thing, unless there is no other way. Xiao Wu said to Qi Bocai: "Why don't you go and get the money."

Qi Bocai snorted and went back to get the money.

Lin Yiyi looked at it and couldn't help shaking her head. This eldest sister-in-law... I don't know what to say. Say she's bad? But she will take care of her own small family. She is not the kind of person who takes things from her husband's family to support her own family. For example, when it comes to wild boar meat, her husband's family has meat, and she wants to take some to her own family. But if the meat is distributed to their eldest family, and she is asked to take the meat from their eldest family, it is equivalent to cutting her meat.

But in some things, she likes to take advantage of others.

However, even if she has a thousand faults, she is not a perfect person just because she protects her family.

Women who save up clothes and food for their parents' home are so irritating. Even when I read a novel, knowing it's a novel, I can still get mad at me.

Qi Bocai took out 60 yuan and gave it to Xiao Wu, who gave it to Xiao Yu. After Xiao Yu received the money, he gave him the key and started to pack his things.

There was nothing left in their room, just a bed and a quilt. The wardrobe and desk had all been moved to the county town, so it was very quick to move the bed there. Xiao Wu and Xiao Bin helped Xiao Yu with these things, but Lin Yiyi didn't get involved. She moved to the new house, and there was no need to clean it. Everything was clean. So she came back to Qin Xiangju: "Mom, dining table, stools, wardrobe, wardrobe, is there anyone in our village who can clean these things?"

Qin Xiangju said: "We don't have a carpenter here, we have to go to the Shangjiaao production brigade."

When Lin Yiyi heard this, she wondered if this was the place where the carpenter that the brothers of the Lin family had found lived. She thought that there was no such a coincidence in the world, so it must be the same person. She had seen the desk and cabinets that Lin Dajun had built, and they were very carefully made. "Mom, I want to find a carpenter to make something. I'll draw the drawings. Can you ask the carpenter there to help make it?"

Qin Xiangju: "Why not? Just draw the picture and I'll go to Shangjia'ao to find a carpenter tomorrow."

Lin Yiyi immediately took out paper and pen from her Jiefang bag. It was her habit to put paper and pen in her bag. She started to change the drawings. They were all simple drawings. Anyway, they were the same shape and length, and the carpenter could understand them. After she finished drawing, she gave the paper to Qin Xiangju: "Mom, these are it. There are ten benches in total, a round dining table, two desks, two chairs, a cabinet, two wardrobes, a new one, and this cradle bed..." In addition, there are also shoe cabinets, storage cabinets and the like. "Mom, these things can let the other party fight slowly."

Qin Xiangju's eyes lit up when she saw that she had prepared a cradle. This was a sign of giving birth: "Are you preparing to give birth?"
