January 24, 1976, Chinese New Year's Eve.
Xinfeng Village, Red Flag Commune
It was almost dinner time, Chen Yeyun was busy in the kitchen, the stove was burning vigorously, a plate of green vegetables was poured into the iron pot, three or two clicks were stir-fried, she handed the porcelain plate full of vegetables to the small mubble head next to her, and let it go to the table of the hall.
"Be careful with the fire, remember to cover the top so that it doesn't get cold." In winter, the dishes are cold fast, and you have to add a plate to the top, otherwise you can only eat cold when people come to the table.
"I know, sister."
After instructing her brother, Chen Yeyun uncovered the dark gray coarse cloth on the bamboo basket, and there were eight eggs lying in it, and she picked two of the larger ones, ready to make egg custard.
Today is a small Chinese New Year's Eve, the family dinner is difficult to add eggs, but the uncle who was busy in the kitchen together was called out, and this has not returned.
The delicate and dense sounds outside drilled into the little chef's ears from the wind-soaked earthen sewing.
"Sister-in-law of the Chen family, I didn't say you, Xiao Yun can't stay at home at this age, and if you stay any longer, everyone in the team will have to say that you two will not let go of the girl."
"Shen Po, I know, but I can't understand what you have drawn." Xu Xinhong sat on a wooden bench in the courtyard, holding the red book brought by the large team of matchmakers in her hand, looking over and over, what was written on it was not words, and some things she could not understand.
It turned out that Shen Po also didn't know a big word, all relying on her own thinking about the shape of the family to find a relative, she had been speaking in the team for more than twenty years, and she had painted a lot of red books.
"I'll show you." Shen Po blew his breath at the rough thumb and forefinger and rubbed them again, which turned over the paper page stuck to the red book.
She squinted her eyes and looked at a page with two large squares, a small square, on the top, "This, old Fang's." The old boy is twenty years old, he looks good, he is a lone seedling in the family, there are not so many bends around, Xiao Yun married the past and worry.
Chen Yeyun held chopsticks to pick up egg liquid, heard the words outside, and silently recalled in his mind that the son of the old Fang family was an old man, who was pampered by the family unusually, delicious and lazy, and there was no right shape for a day.
"And this one." Shen Po's voice rang out again, "Old Sun's family, Ding Wang, a lively person in the family, a large house of people Hula every New Year's Festival, the grandson's little son is as big as a small cloud, this baby skin is really a capable person." The
egg was steamed on the pot, Chen Yeyun put the cover on the pot and turned to prepare to cut the vegetables, when she picked up the kitchen knife, she thought about it, the day before yesterday, the three sisters and brothers of the old grandson's family were still fighting, almost smashed the door of the house, and finally alarmed the captain to go out and say peace.
Xu Xinhong listened to Shen Po say a few mouths, and her eyebrows wrinkled higher and higher, "Shen Po, I see that these are similar to our family's conditions, and some are not as good as us..."
"Oh, I said Chen Family Sister-in-law, what about you Xiaoyun, who looks good and has read books, should have been popular, and the young people in these ten miles and eight villages are not picked by her?" But there is a little bit of a dilemma, you have to take two babies to marry together, you say who is willing to marry a new wife and a young one.
Six years ago, Chen Yeyun's father died in a landslide after a rainstorm, leaving behind three poor children, Chen Yeyun, Chen Yejun, and Chen Yeling. The three were carried by Grandpa to live a difficult life, and as a result, Grandpa also went three years ago, and the three of them were dragged into the uncle's house by the captain of the brigade, and as compensation, the team recorded eighty centimeters per year for the uncle's family, and then made up another eighty pounds of sweet potatoes and took the bill.
Chen Yeyun's eldest uncle, Chen Fugui's family, is also barely living a hard life, and he also has three children, and the eldest got married last year. Three more mouths of food came out of this cold, and the days could be better.
When Chen Yeyun and the three of them first came, the two of them did not have to talk about this matter.
Although Xu Xinhong was not comfortable at first, now the harvest is not good, working hard all day long, and at the end of the year, he can't share a few dollars, mixing wild vegetables, corn flour dumplings, and brown rice paste, where can his family be the condition for re-raising the three women and children?
But Xiao Yun is sensible and capable, Dajun and Ling Ling are also obedient and well-behaved, and they have been together for a long time, Xu Xinhong also treats the three people as half biological, after all, whose heart is also fleshy, which can not tell the good dependent.
"Xiao Yun and her brother, her sister has a good relationship, where willing to leave the two people to marry themselves."
Xu Xinhong is not very satisfied with the family that Shen Po just said, one family is chicken flying dog jumping, not can live a sincere life, when Grandpa left, he specially ordered, let Xiao Yun pick a door, don't suffer too much.
Shen Po is fifty years old, her hair is quite white, her face is wrinkled, she waited for Xu Xinhong to say this, and then she suppressed her throat and made an air sound, "Forget it, I won't hide it from you!" What a nice guy!
She covered the red book, took Xu Xinhong's hand, and said warmly, "Does the captain Meng Jianjun remember?" Looks like Zhou Zheng, good temperament, and has gone to primary school! His family was having a good life as a captain.
"Meng Jianjun..." Xu Xinhong murmured.
The eldest son of the Meng family is the captain of the Red Flag Commune, very prestigious in the village, Meng Jianjun is the captain of the brigade, this person is twenty-four years old, has read a little culture, the character is also Sven, and has a good reputation in the village.
"It's very good to hear, but Shen Po, he has been married and has a baby!" Xu Xinhong felt overwhelmed when he thought of this stubble.
"Got married?" Doesn't that hurt people more! What's up with a baby? In the past, when I was a ready-made mother, there were still people who were filial piety! Shen Po advised her, "You think, who else in these ten miles and eight villages has better conditions than the Meng family?" How many girls wanted to ask me to inquire about Meng Jianjun, I didn't respond.
Xu Xinhong thought about the first few and then thought about the Meng family, it was a little loose, didn't Xiao Yun eat chaff vegetables before he married? Those days were also difficult.
"Bo Niang, the food is ready."
A crisp voice sounded, interrupting the conversation between the two people in the courtyard.
Shen Po turned her head to look and watched Chen Yeyun come out of the kitchen.
She looks handsome, the goose egg face is delicate and small, a pair of apricot eyes under the long eyelashes like water, the nose is straight, the small mouth is red, and the body is slim, even if she wears a patched coarse cloth dress, she can't hide her beauty.
"Oh, little cloud!" Shen Po smiled and narrowed her eyes into stripes, busy greeting people, "I haven't seen you in a few days, I feel handsome again." At the same time, she also muttered in her heart, no wonder Meng Jianjun was worried about people, stuffed his own money to inquire about the
news, if it did, he could still have a thank you.
"All right, Johnny, go and tell your dad to come back for dinner!" Xu Xinhong called out to his son in the back room, and then looked at Shen Po and said, "Shen Po, we will discuss this matter again, and I have to ask our rich family to talk about it again." Today you will stay for a meal, and the dishes at home will be ready.
"Oh, no, you eat yours for the holidays, I'll go home and eat, and I can eat and drink your house for free." Shen Po waved his hand, pushed away two sentences, and looked at Chen Yeyun with a pair of sharp eyes.
"Then you discussed this matter, but ah, I haven't looked at it in all my years as a matchmaker, Xiao Yun and Meng Jianjun are with the cover!"
"Anyway, this matter is firmly in your heart, and there are some good people who help us pay attention." Xu Xinhong quickly went to the kitchen and took an egg out of the bamboo basket, and the Cypriot hand said, "You can eat this egg with you, bother!"
Shen Po pushed it away, but could only carry the egg in her pocket and carry it home.
Xiao Chinese New Year's Eve, the Chen family's dining table was always stained with some fishy, especially the oiled, flower-sprinkled egg custard with a seductive fragrance, and the corners of the Chen family's four small mouths were stained with sauce.
It gets dark early in the winter, the familyStopped early. Chen Yeyun lay in bed thinking about the daytime things and couldn't sleep.
"Tell me about you, where is the idea of letting someone marry and become a harem?"
Chen Fu's voice came in from the old wooden door stitches, hidden and intangible.
The two of them were walking from the courtyard to the back room, talking and screaming.
"I didn't say I would marry Meng Jianjun!" This is not a day to see his home is better. People are the captains of the brigade, the head of the wife went, leaving a four-year-old baby, the family conditions are good, I want to find a good heart, it is best to have a little culture.
"No matter how good it is, it is to be a harem, where is the better life this day?" Chen Fugui couldn't pull down this face, and no matter how he had the reason to marry his own daughter out as a harem, he turned back to the second brother and his two sons to go down, but he didn't have a face.
"You look at Shen Mother-in-law's red book by yourself, and the few families you said are not fuel-saving lamps, and Xiao Yun can't suffer in the past when he married?" I think that the little cloud is this baby, no father and no mother, and I have to take care of two small ones, and I have not enjoyed happiness in this life. After getting married, eat more fine grain, eat more meat, eat less bitterness... Besides, Xiao Yun is nineteen, where can he find his in-laws?
Chen Yeyun because he could not rest assured that his younger brothers and sisters could not be relieved, pushed a lot of relatives, took his younger brothers and sisters to live in the uncle's house, the average person had to find a mother-in-law at sixteen, seventeen marriages were late, only Chen Yeyun was born to nineteen, and the village rumors flew everywhere.
Some people say that Uncle Chen Yeyun's family keeps the girl from marrying and works in the house, and some say that Chen Yeyun's mood is too high to look up to other people's families.
"That being said, but..."
Chen Yeyun listened to the noise outside and knew that the two of them were talking about their own affairs, she lay on her back on the bed, looking at the roof of the room, there was a slight quarrel in her ears, she rolled over and got up, touched the black and walked toward the window, where there was a low standing cabinet, The drawer pulled open and took out a small rusty iron box inside.
The lid of the iron box was uncovered, and by the faint moonlight, you could see that there were several tickets lying inside, one dime, and some points, all of which Chen Yeyun had saved little by little in these years, except for the tuition money for her younger brothers and sisters and the scattered food money for the three people of the uncle's family, and her entire savings were here.
Counted twice, a total of three cents and three cents.
The iron box also contained the relics left by Grandpa, and at the bottom lay a copper-yellow shell and half a piece of paper on which the words of the state-run farm could be faintly recognized.
