Reborn in the 70s, doing whatever it takes to make money

Xu Qing couldn't help but be fascinated.

"Are you OK?"

A clear and steady voice sounded around him.

Xu Qing came to her senses immediately.

It's Shen Yi.

Shen Yi saved her.

At this moment, Shen Yi was seen holding the snake in his right hand, and his left hand reached in front of Xu Qing to pull her up.

Xu Qing hesitated for a moment, stretched out her hand, and took the big hand stretched out in front of her.

The moment she held that hand, Xu Qing could clearly feel the rough calluses on the palm of that big hand. It was obvious that the owner of this palm had done a lot of farm work.

A strong force came and pulled her up.

After Xu Qing stood up, she endured the pain, took a step back, pointed at the snake in Shen Yi's hand, and said, "Why don't you throw it away?"

Shen Yi looked Xu Qing up and down and asked instead, "Are you okay?"

"No, it's fine."

Xu Qing moved her body, but except for some scratches, there were no other injuries.

After hearing Xu Qing's answer, Shen Yi grabbed the still twisting cauliflower snake, turned around and left.

"You, you, you're not going to eat it, are you?"

Looking at Shen Yi's back, Xu Qing suddenly widened her eyes and said.

For rural people in this era, in addition to pork, the villagers' sources of meat were frogs caught in the fields, snakes caught in the grass, fish and shrimp caught in the river, and birds flying in the sky.

As for the chickens, ducks and geese raised at home, the eggs are left behind and few people eat them.

Shen Yi remained cold and did not reply, quickening his pace and walking away.

Xu Qing jumped to watch.

Shen Yi seemed to be going in the direction of the bullpen.

"Is this Shen Yi going to find Grandpa Chen?"

Xu Qing whispered.

"Hi~"

"No matter, I'll go back and clean up the scratches first."

……

In front of the bullpen.

A bonfire crackled and burned.

An old man and a young man were sitting by the campfire.

"Stains stains~"

Under the roasting of the flames, the snake meat gradually turned brown, and the oil and water dripped into the flames, making a sizzling sound, and a meaty fragrance floated in the air.

Old Man Chen swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said, "Snake meat is a good thing. Old man, I haven't eaten it for a long time. I need to take it by mouth today. Girl Qing left early. It would be better if it were later."

Shen Yi glanced at Old Chen and said nothing.

Old Man Chen asked: "Didn't your boy meet Qing Yatou on the way here?"

"Met."

Shen Yi turned the snake meat over and said.

Old man Chen suddenly came closer and asked in a low voice: "How is it?"

Shen Yi said without raising his head: "What about it?"

When Old Chen saw Shen Yi pretending to be confused, he laughed and said, "Are you pretending to be confused with me? Let me ask you, how are you doing, girl Qing?"

Shen Yi moved his hands for a moment, thought for a moment, and said, "It's okay."

Old Man Chen said: "I knew you would say that. I watched you grow up, and your personality was too cold. Many girls fell in love with you, but you didn't fall in love with any of them. It's better now. You were kicked. When it comes to Hongqi Village, a place where birds don’t shit, I don’t know when I can go back.”

Shen Yi rolled his eyes at Old Chen and said, "You still have the nerve to accuse me, but your current situation is even worse than mine."

Old Man Chen sighed.

He didn't expect to find himself in this situation. He thought about how prosperous he was when he was young, but when he got old, he would spend all his time with cow dung in the cowshed.

"Let's not talk about these troublesome things. You are still young. If I remember correctly, you are 22 years old today. When I was your age, old man, my son could run all over the place. I thought about it here again. Looking for a wife?"

At the end of the sentence, Old Chen suddenly showed a sly expression.

Feeling Old Chen's leering gaze, Shen Yi felt uncomfortable all over, twisted his body and said, "No."

Old Man Chen said: "Hey, are you going to be a bachelor?"

"The meat is ready, eat it quickly."

Shen Yi brought the roasted snake meat to Old Man Chen.

Old Man Chen said: "You kid, don't take the opportunity to change the subject."

"Don't eat?"

Shen Yi took the snake meat back and said, "If you don't want to eat it, I'll eat it."

"Who said I won't eat."

Seeing that Shen Yi really wanted to eat, Old Chen lost his composure and said quickly.

It has been a few years since I went to the countryside. Although I am not starving to death, if it comes to meat and fish, I have not eaten very often.

Old man Chen snatched the snake meat and ate it in big gulps.

Shen Yi picked up another piece of snake meat, threaded it on a wooden stick, and roasted it on the fire.

That cauliflower snake is very big, weighing more than one kilogram and nearly two kilograms. The old and the young can eat it tonight.

The texture of snake meat is smooth and soft, and it tastes similar to frog, but it tastes firmer.

"Snake meat has many thorns. You should eat slowly. If you try to eat, the thorns will get stuck in your throat. I can't help you take them out."

Seeing old man Chen enjoying his meal, Shen Yi reminded him.

Old Man Chen snorted and said: "Hmph~ Old man, I used to catch snakes and eat them when I was young. The snakes I have eaten are more than the rice you have eaten. By the way, you haven't answered my question yet. What do you want? Don’t want to marry a wife?”

Shen Yi said: "You should worry less and don't mess around with me. I'm living a good life alone now and I'm used to being alone."

Old man Chen put down the snake bone, wiped his mouth, and said, "I won't go to court with you anymore. Your boy has also met that Qing girl. What do you think of her?"

Shen Yi thought for a while and said: "Stupid, cowardly..."

Old man Chen: "..."

……

"Ah owe~"

Xu Qing sneezed.

"Who's talking about me?"

He rubbed his nose, crossed the threshold, and walked into the home.

"My dear daughter, you came back just in time. Come quickly, come and eat." Xu's mother said with a smile when she saw Xu Qing.

Xu Qing sniffed. The long-lost smell of meat floated in the air, and she couldn't help but swallowed, "Mom, is our family roasting meat?"

Xu's mother said: "Today I cut some meat to celebrate your becoming a teacher."

After a while.

Everyone in Lao Xu's family came to the table to eat.

The dinner table.

A dozen pairs of eyes all focused on a plate of meat.

No one moved their chopsticks.

"Gudu~"

Sanmao was so greedy that he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, then picked up the chopsticks and started picking up the meat.

"Clap~"

Xu's mother stopped Sanmao's chopsticks and said, "Your sister-in-law hasn't used her chopsticks yet."

Today is a celebration for Xu Qing, so Xu Qing is the protagonist. If she doesn't move her chopsticks, the rest of the old Xu family can't move either.

"My dear daughter, come and have a piece of meat."

Xu's mother picked a piece of fat meat and put it in Xu Qing's bowl.

In this era, fat meat is a good thing. When buying meat, most people only buy fat meat, and the same goes for eating meat.

Xu Qing glanced at the big fat meat in the bowl and twitched the corner of her mouth. Although she was greedy for meat, she still couldn't eat the big fat meat. She wanted to eat lean meat more, and pork belly was also fine.

After staring at the big fat meat in the bowl for a few seconds, Xu Qing was stunned and couldn't take it down. "Fifth brother, come here, I'll give you this piece of meat."
