Re-select the life system

125 Chapter 36

The standard of living in Dali Village is obviously a notch lower than that in Xiaoli Village. Several village cadres seemed to have never eaten in their lives. They ate all the bowls of big fish and meat. Even the rice was eaten by everyone. After three or four bowls and two bottles of wine, Qin He began to doubt the real living standard of Dali Village.

Just like that, in previous years, I would still brag about how awesome I was in front of Xiaoli Village!
Sending away the people with oily mouths and red faces, Qin He was also a little drunk, and when he got home, he saw Shuying cleaning the table silently. It became more and more rounded, and it made him want to move when viewed from behind.

As the saying goes, "When you're full, you want to eat."

At this time, things like that started to come to Qin He's mind. With a somewhat wretched expression, he stepped forward and started to move, but Shuying opened his hand very coldly. Qin He was a little confused and hurriedly stepped forward. Admit your mistake.

Anyway, he didn't know what was wrong, so it was right to admit it first.

"Baby Shuying, what's the matter? I was wrong, is it uncomfortable?"

Shuying looked a little sad, she kept Qin He behind her back and didn't speak, Qin He knew that at this time, he had to step up his efforts to admit his mistake, so he quickly hugged her waist, whispering softly, baby baby kept screaming.

In the end Shuying still had soft ears, she turned around sadly, threw herself into Qin He's arms, and sighed.

"Husband, you care less and less about me, haven't you noticed the changes in me during this time?
"Change? Of course I found out! My ass is getting bigger!"

"I'm pregnant, do you know?"

"Wait!"

"Pregnant?"

"It's a great event!"

Qin He was confused for two seconds. He was so surprised that he almost jumped up. He almost turned around in circles while holding Shuying. Soon he was worried that he would crush the baby, so he quickly put it down, lowered his head, and placed it against Shuying's belly. Gentle and authentic.

"Baby, baby, Daddy is calling you, did you hear that? Did you hear that? Answer, answer!"

"Pfft!"

Shuying finally laughed out loud. She gently stroked Qin He's head. The unhappiness just now had disappeared. At this moment, she felt very happy. "

Ever since Qin He and Shuying got married, the two of them had basically never had any quarrels. Qin He had some male chauvinist ideas, and Shuying was used to accepting them. It was up to her.

The father-in-law didn’t care about anything at home. He opened his mouth when he came to eat, and stretched out his hands when he came for clothes. Qin He also inherited this fine tradition. It's clean and tidy and move in ready.

Qin He has one advantage over Secretary Li. Although he is also machismo, once he quarrels with Shuying on certain issues, he will immediately admit his mistakes. This is different from the old man, who has never admitted his mistakes in his life. , and only the mother-in-law can bear his temper.

In the last few days of the Chinese New Year, every household in Xiaolizhuang put up couplets, and they bought baskets of goods for the new year. This year’s dividends have completely made Xiaolizhuang a well-known wealthy village, and the laughter is completely the same as last year.

During this period of time, many matchmakers came to the village, and they began to inquire about the young man in Xiaolizhuang's family who was still unmarried. Whether it was an unmarried guy or a young girl, every household was full of other village matchmakers.

Even Shuqing from Secretary Li's family is even more sought-after. Although she is only 17 years old, her small face is the most handsome girl among the sisters. 17 years old in the countryside is not too young, and even a matchmaker comes to her door. should.

Being able to marry a girl from Secretary Li's family is a good thing that kills three birds with one stone.

The first advantage is that Secretary Li’s family has no sons, so the family property will definitely belong to the son-in-law and daughter in the future. The No. 1 person who led Xiao Lizhuang to become rich, this kind of family relationship, if you handle it a little bit, that one person will be able to ascend to heaven, it will be a pleasure to think about it.

The third advantage is, of course, that this girl has her trademark looks, her big, watery eyes, her fair skin. Secretary Li’s family conditions, her daughters have not done any heavy work since they were young, and the little girl’s appearance is so energetic that she will definitely be able to give birth in the future. Ten or eight babies.

It's a pity that they forgot that family planning has been implemented this year. Regarding the issue of family planning, Qin He also asked his father-in-law. Now the country has indeed begun to implement it. Each person is only allowed to have one child. Of course, in rural areas, if you have connections and money, you can have more children. A few is not a big deal.

Qin He also thought about it, although Jiang Baili's task is to give birth to ten or eight children, but of course Qin He will not have so many children, he will definitely have three or four children, and at the worst he will not be the head of the village.

During the past few days of Chinese New Year, Qin He was very busy, not because of his business affairs, but because of the young people in the village these days, several couples got married. Qin He was one of the people who had to be invited, and some invited him to be a witness. Wait a minute, even the young people in Dali Village across the street invited Qin He to attend their wedding. Qin He couldn't even refuse such kindness, so he could only run a few times a day.

He came home drunk every night late at night. Qin He was worried about affecting Shuying, so he proposed to sleep in separate rooms for a few months. Shuying and the baby in her womb.

During this period of time, the business of the big restaurants in the village has become more and more popular. Now not only people from other villages come to eat, even young people in the village occasionally come to eat out of restaurants.

When eating at home, parents are reluctant to add oil and seasonings, and it is really a pleasure to eat in a restaurant once in a while. At present, the small restaurant has two signature dishes.

People from other villages must order Xiaolizhuang's scrambled eggs, while young people in the village must order fish fillets boiled in oil and water. This dish has become the favorite of many young people. It is spicy, spicy and numb, and the fish fillets are smooth and refreshing. Never get tired of eating.

On this day, a few outsiders dressed in different clothes appeared at the entrance of the village. Three of them were younger and accompanied a 60-year-old old man. They were obviously different from the locals in Nanhu County, because they looked different from the locals. people.

Most of the local people's clothes are mainly blue, yellow and green, and even the cadres mostly wear Chinese tunic suits and old military uniforms. Except for the old man wearing Chinese tunic suits, the other two women are dressed in neat blue and red coats. The young man was still wearing a leather jacket. This fashionable attire looked a bit like a city dweller. A group of four set foot on the boundary of Xiao Lizhuang.

Among the four people, there are two middle-aged women in their 40s and [-]s, and a young man in his early thirties. They carry a few bags in their hands, and their expressions are a little tired. This is obviously different from the vendors who collect eggs. different.

As soon as a few people entered the village, they saw a restaurant under a big camphor tree. It was approaching noon, and the restaurant was already full of people. Today is the 28th of the lunar calendar, and there are two days before the Chinese New Year, and everyone is too lazy to go home and cook. , I have a little spare money, what are you doing if you don’t eat and drink?
Recently, some old people, children and children in the village celebrated their birthdays, and their families spent a few dollars to the restaurant to improve their lives. Qin He has long since ceased to be a chef. Currently, the master chefs of the restaurant are his two apprentices, and these two 17-year-old master chefs, They also accepted apprentices, and each of them accepted three or four students. The restaurant was in full swing, and it was very lively.

In addition to restaurants, there is also an endless stream of people coming in and out of Xiaolizhuang Village. Vendors pushing [-] bicycles hurriedly finish their meals and return to the city to sell eggs. These days are a good time to make money. Xiaolizhuang’s super eggs Now the supply is really in short supply. In this case, the price of eggs may even rise. The current retail price is [-] cents per egg, which has become the market price.

The four of them were obviously not familiar with Xiaoli Village, and their eyes were filled with darkness as soon as they entered the village.

"Dad, why don't we go find Lao Wu after we have dinner first!"

The old man pondered for a moment, then thought about it and said.

"Okay, let's eat first. You should be careful about your burdens. The rural people are poor, and there are many people with bad intentions!"

A few people found a table and sat down. The guests at this table had just left and hadn't been cleaned up yet. They pulled the chairs a little further away in disgust.

When the waiter saw the guests coming, he quickly took out the menu and trotted over.

When the young master saw these people, he was immediately curious. Although dozens of people from other villages came in and out of Xiaolizhuang every day this year, and many cadres and leaders came, but people from real big cities are currently in Xiaolizhuang. I really haven’t seen it before.

Although Xiaolizhuang Eggs is famous, it is also a well-known brand in Nanhu County. It is only a small place, with hundreds of eggs a day. Where can it go to be famous.

Judging by the dress of these people, they are obviously not local people, not from the clothes, but the words they say, which are obviously not local dialects, but no matter where they are, since they have worked so hard to come to Xiaoli Village, they must welcome them. of.

The young master greeted him warmly.

"Several, this is our menu, what do you want to order?"

The young man took the menu, and was a little curious that there was a restaurant in this small place. When he opened the menu, he opened it and saw that the price is not too cheap.

The young man randomly ordered three dishes, thought for a while and then asked the old man.

"Dad, would you like to order one?"

The old man waved his hand and signaled the young man to order. The young man nodded in agreement and added another dish. The four of them ordered four dishes and handed the menu to the young master. The young master frowned when he saw it.

Because the few people ordered not only no boiled fish, but also no Xiaolizhuang eggs, which is a bit strange. Those who can go to Xiaolizhuang to eat are all rushing to Xiaolizhuang eggs, and these people don’t even order ?

A few people saw that the little master didn't make arrangements, and asked a little angrily.

"Waiter, the order is ready, hurry up and arrange it!"

The young master nodded quickly. This waiter was quite classy. He was about to leave, but he still thought about it and turned around to ask a few people.

"Several, do you really not order our signature dish, Xiao Lizhuang's eggs?"

Several people looked at the little master in confusion, not understanding what the little master meant.

Seeing the expressions of several people, the little master asked with some doubts.

"Aren't you here for the eggs from our Xiaoli Village?"

The young man replied even more puzzled.

"Xiao Lizhuang eggs? Why do we come for eggs?"

The little master was speechless immediately. Could it be that people who come to Xiao Lizhuang to eat now come for Xiao Lizhuang eggs?
The old man has rich experience, and he also sensed that something was wrong, so he quickly interrupted the two people's quiz-like questions and asked proactively.

"Little master, I'm sorry, we are here to find someone, let me ask, are you here the Xiaolizhuang Brigade of Liantang Commune in Nanhu County?"

"Master, our place is no longer the brigade, but Xiaolizhuang Village, but it was indeed called the Xiaolizhuang Brigade before. Who are you looking for?"

The old man breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he had found the right place, and hurriedly asked.

"I wonder if there is an educated youth named Jiang Baili in your village. He joined your brigade in June 1970!"

"Jiang Baili? Who is it? I've never heard of it. All of us in Xiaoli Village are named Li!"

The little master thought for a long time ignorantly, it seems that everyone in Xiaolizhuang Village is surnamed Li!
At this time, Li Chengjie was just about to go to the stove with a bucket of oil, when he suddenly heard the old man ask this sentence, he had already walked a long way, and hurried back, looked at the people carefully, and asked in a somewhat uncertain tone .

"How many people, are you from Shanghai?"
