Chapter 249: Preparations before the Lunar New Year
You have to know that in this era, some state-owned factories were larger in scale, like a small society,
with not only production workshops, but also supporting children's schools, factory hospitals, canteens, stadiums, halls, barber shops, bathrooms and other facilities.
The factory's security department has a wide range of responsibilities, from daily trivial matters such as employees losing things, couples fighting, and mother-in-law and daughter-in-law conflicts, to major matters such as preventing spies from entering the factory and dealing with enemy activities.
Rural collective enterprises are state-owned enterprises with no national administrative level, and the masses have ownership rights and do not require political review.
For someone like Wang Yuanchao who wants to spend the next ten years in peace and stability,
It can be said to be the most suitable platform, and it can allow Wang Yuanchao to have the real power of a leader even though he does not have the title of leader.
Once Wang Yuanchao takes this step firmly, he will be considered to have truly established himself in this area and become a figure.
After all, who would want to live in anonymity when they can live a life of luxury? Although this process still requires Wang Yuanchao to spend a lot of time and effort to change.
But everything is difficult at the beginning. Now Wang Yuanchao is almost done with building the platform, which is the first step forward.
In the future, as long as Wang Yuanchao works hard and develops step by step, he will always be able to achieve his desired goals.
After having a meal and drinking with Captain Liu and seeing Captain Liu off, Wang Yuanchao climbed onto the kang, lay down on it with his eyes closed to rest. Wang Yuanchao was in a good mood and didn't want to get off the kang today.
After sleeping for a while, my wife and mother-in-law finished all the housework.
Wang Yuanchao called the mother and daughter to the kang, lay on the warm kang, let the mother and daughter crawl into the quilt, and began to serve him.
It was quite comfortable to be served by two people at the same time. Wang Yuanchao had drunk some wine and felt a little dizzy.
For a moment, Wang Yuanchao experienced the most perfect feeling in life. Lying motionless and enjoying it made Wang Yuanchao feel that life was so beautiful. Compared with the panic when he first came through, Wang Yuanchao's life now is a paradise on earth.
The days of hibernation were so blissful and absurd that Wang Yuanchao hardly felt the passage of time.
However, the team leader, Captain Liu, Director Yang, Accountant Yu and other village cadres did not calm down because of the winter.
During this period, several village cadres and Party Secretary Kong Youde tested each other, pulled each other, probed each other, compromised with each other, and intrigued each other every day . Gradually, the two sides' intention to cooperate became closer and closer.
All this was accomplished secretly without the knowledge of the villagers of the Red Flag Brigade.
Wang Yuanchao had lived a fairy-tale life, and the New Year was coming soon.
On the twenty-eighth day of the lunar year, Wang Yuanchao and his young wife were woken up by their mother-in-law early in the morning and began a vigorous house cleaning, inside and outside the house, in the yard, on the windows, on the roof. The family of three plus Aunt Xinghua's family of four came to help.
It took me a whole day to clean the house inside and out.
Early in the morning on the twenty-ninth day of the lunar year, Wang Yuanchao's family and Aunt Xinghua's family began to paste window decorations and spring couplets at home.
After the window decorations and Spring Festival couplets are pasted,
The mother-in-law, aunt Xinghua, and the three girls, Zhaodi, Niandi and Pandi, started making dumplings, sticky bean buns and meat buns in the kitchen, while Wang Yuanchao himself took out the frozen pig heads, pig legs, washed potatoes and cabbages from the water tank, prepared the braising liquid, and started to braise the pig heads, pig legs, cabbage and potato cubes.
After the stew is ready,
Wang Yuanchao took out the pork spine and pork ribs cut into several pieces from the large water tank, chopped them into pieces,
I started to use a large iron pot to make sauced pork bones. These bones were left over from slaughtering pigs at home.
The meat on the bones was not shaved off, and it was full of meat. After being cooked with sauce and seasoned, it tasted so delicious.
The seven women in the house each grabbed a large bone and started chewing it, so busy that they couldn't stop.
Wang Yuanchao’s appetite increased after seeing this, and he ate several pieces in a row.
The big pot of braised pork ribs didn't even have time to wait for dinner. As soon as it came out of the pot, it was eaten up by the whole family, even the sauce was swept away.
After finishing the braised pork ribs, Wang Yuanchao took out three pheasants from the large water jar and started stewing the pheasants with mushrooms.
After a busy day, Wang Yuanchao's sofa was filled with seven women and himself.
The two families happily ate pheasant stewed with mushrooms, stir-fried braised pork, and braised crucian carp while chatting. Wang Yuanchao particularly liked this happy family scene, so he said, "Aunt Xinghua, tomorrow is New Year's Eve, why don't you bring your three sisters to our house to celebrate the New Year? You see how much we are like a family here, and you don't have to prepare the New Year's Eve dinner, which is troublesome."
After Aunt Xinghua ate the braised meat in her mouth, she looked at her three daughters who were looking forward to it, and said with a hard heart: "Yuan Chao, no, it's New Year's Day, Nian Di and I must spend it at home,
Today is my aunt's way of celebrating the New Year with you guys in advance, but tomorrow it will definitely not be possible."
Every place has its own customs. After Wang Yuanchao heard Aunt Xinghua's refusal, he looked at his mother-in-law. Widow Du also shook her head when she saw this.
So Wang Yuanchao didn't insist and said, "Okay then, but Niandi, Zhaodi and the others have to come to our house tomorrow to play with Zizi and Nuannuan."
"Okay, brother-in-law, I will definitely come over to play with the cub tomorrow."
"Yes, brother-in-law, we love the cub so much. I came here early in the morning to accompany the cub."
Wang Yuanchao felt discouraged after hearing this. Nowadays, favoring boys over girls is not just a common practice, but a concept that is deeply rooted in everyone's heart.
Wang Yuanchao has repeatedly emphasized that boys and girls are the same and he likes both, but he still cannot change the ideas of Niandi and the other two sisters. Wang Yuanchao can only let it go.
Anyway, it's your own daughter that you like. Your daughter is your little cotton-padded jacket.
I will definitely not let my daughter suffer any loss in the future. What my son has, my daughter will definitely have as well.
After the family finished eating, drinking, and cleaning up, and sent Aunt Xinghua and her family out, it was already nine o'clock in the evening. Wang Yuanchao and his family took a bath in a bathtub with a dragon and two phoenixes.
After the passionate interaction on the kang, Widow Du laid on Wang Yuanchao's chest and suddenly asked, "Yuanchao, don't you like the fact that Zhaodi and the others only like Zizi and don't care about Nuannuan?"
Wang Yuanchao didn't want to make his family unhappy because of outsiders, so he said casually: "Mom, it's okay, I love my own daughter and I don't care about other people's attitudes."
Widow Du closed her eyes thoughtfully, said "hmm", and prepared to go to bed.
