Lin Hu came home from get off work and went to the market. He saw a tofu seller and thought he could buy it. He bought four pieces of tofu and an ox tail. Go home. I took out the horse meat from the space in front of my house. It was the horse meat that died in the battle. I was on a business trip to transport equipment and was attacked. The cavalry horse was dead. I brought back a big piece of horse meat and used the space to make it. It became mincemeat. When we got home, it was time to eat. I put down my things and started eating. The little girl always looked at the mincemeat. "Daughter, do you want to eat?" "Dad, I want to eat." The daughter said, "What about you?" "Dad, I want to eat," the two second-year girls said, "And dad," "And my uncle." "My nephew also said. "Okay, let's cook it." He stood up and cooked the meat. "Let's not eat it either. There will be something delicious later," my aunt said. The wife and sister shook their heads and said, "My brother has no resistance to my daughter, my sister-in-law has no resistance to my brother, and the children have no resistance to my sister-in-law." "That's true," said the aunt.
Here, Lin Hu added salt and aniseed powder to the meat filling, a large bowl of chopped green onion, and stirred the starch evenly. He put a large pot on the fire and put five kilograms of oil in the pot. After a while, the oil boils. Shape the meat filling into small balls and flip it into the pot. Fill a large pot, turn it up and down, and use an iron spoon to stir it back and forth. Here, cut the tofu into small pieces and sprinkle salt on it. Spread evenly on each piece. Leave it for a while, and the meatballs in the pot will come out of the pot. Now, put all the small pieces of tofu into the pot. After a while, the oil will stop falling. Fry until the surface is golden and take it out. Put them on the plate one after another and bring them to the table. The little girl first used a spoon to make a ball, and her mouth was filled with oil. Everyone started to eat, this was so delicious. I am more willing to eat soybean curd,
The next day Yi Zhonghai came to invite Lin Hu to dinner. Lin Hu really didn't want to go. He invites people to dinner for a purpose. When we arrived at Yi's house, we started to eat, and the deaf old lady also came over. The deaf old lady said, "You can sell me some grain if you have it, but the portion is not enough to eat." "Old lady, how much do you eat? You are a five-guarantee household with full national grain standards. Isn't it enough to eat?" Lin Hu said. "You don't know. The food I gave you is all coarse grains, and you can't chew a lot of them." "Is that so? I'll think of a way. If you can succeed, don't tell others. If you can't, don't be upset. This grain isn't mine either. I'll try my best. Let me ask you," Lin Hu said.
These days, there are more and more people who are short of food. It is difficult to eat well. "My apprentice's family is also in a difficult situation." Who is your apprentice? Lin Hu asked knowingly. "Jia family," "Jia family, didn't Lao Jia think of a solution himself?" "Lao Jia has been gone for several months." You don’t know? "How did I know that I had only been back for a few days?" "It's not easy for orphans and widowers to die without electricity. They all have rural household registration and there is no quota," Yi Zhonghai said. "I know this, rural household registration There is no quota, but there is land in the countryside, and a lot of food is allocated every year. In the past, she was extra cautious. At that time, she would not pay attention to you if you begged her. There is not enough food to eat. She doesn’t plant anymore, and the food given to her is too little, so she doesn’t have enough to eat. It’s much more expensive to buy premium grain. "
"It's really hard to get food now. It's barely enough. How can there be any extra?" Yi Zhonghai said. "Food is the most difficult thing to get now, but it will be better in the future. There is no need to transport supplies and food to the peninsula. Every family can eat it," Lin Hu said. "I can get 40 cents a pound for the factory, and I can get 200 pounds for the same. I can't get more." Lin Hu said, helping him this time.
It will be 1954 soon, and it will be 54 in two years. It has entered the ticket period. It is difficult to buy anything, and food has always been the most difficult to get. The most difficult period was from 1959 to 1961. June 2 is not easy either.
Let’s talk about it then. And Silly Zhu, my apprentice has been obsessed with Qin Huairu his whole life, so he asked my apprentice to cut off his beard. Ok, deal. After dinner. Go find the fool.
"Zhuzi" Lin Hu shouted, "I'm here, Master" Silly Zhu came out. "How old are you this year?" "18. Married to the master." "You also have a wife. The master will take you on a blind date in two days," Lin Hu said. "Not old enough. There are still two years left," Silly Zhu said. "Shit, go to the street office and police station to change things. I'll see you tomorrow." After that, he left.
Silly Zhu was stunned. "What did your master say?" He Daqing asked. "My master asked me to get a wife. He asked me to change my household registration." "Then you listen to him," He Daqing said. The next day I took Shazhu to change my household registration. He took him to Changping. Find someone to inquire about Qinjia Village. all know. Arrive at Qinjia Village. I went to the village chief and gave him a cigarette. Everyone said that there is a good girl in your village named Qin Huairu. As my apprentice has reached his age, it is time for him to get a wife. His family conditions are good, but he has to choose a good girl. This led to Qinjiacun through several people. To get a wife, you have to marry a virtuous one. Can I ask the village chief to give me a recommendation?" "There's nothing to say. I'll ask. Just listen to my words." The village chief left.
He came back not long after, bringing with him a man and a girl. "This is Qin Laosan. This is his daughter Qin Huairu." The village chief introduced. "This is He Yuzhu, this is his master. I don't know his name yet." "My name is Uncle Lin Hu, the village chief," Lin Hu said.
"My apprentice's parents are here, and he also has a younger sister at home. My apprentice is now a chef at the steel rolling mill, and his father is the deputy director of logistics. He just wants to find a good girl who can live a good life. So I heard about this after many people inquired. Those who came here are a little presumptuous. This gift is not respectful." He took out four gifts from behind. This is called Siheli. "Thank you very much," Lin Hu asked. "Look, brother, ask the girl or..." Lin Hu asked. Qin Laosan looked at Qin Huairu, "Look" "I listen to dad" Qin Huairu lowered his head after saying that ."And you? "I asked as I looked at Silly Zhu Lin Hu. "I listened to Master," Silly Zhu said. This is a match. "Brother Qin, look at this..." Lin Hu asked, "Okay, twenty yuan. bride price. It’s done” “Refreshingly, I don’t have any ink. I took out the extra thirty dollars from my pocket to prepare a few tables. I can't just marry off my apprentice's wife. There needs to be some movement," Lin Hu said. "Thank you very much. "Qin Laosan said. Qin Huairu's face was red.
How can a married girl in the countryside have a few tables? This time he was able to show off his face, "Uncle Village Chief, you have to be the popular matchmaker." Lin Hu said, handing over five yuan. "That's nothing to say." "How about we open the letter of introduction today and get the marriage certificate first? Then come back to hold the banquet, and we can get married tomorrow. Is that okay?" "No problem, do as you wish."
Cun Zhang went into the house to open a letter of introduction. After everything was done, I took Shazhu and Qin Huairu to the street office and registered them. After sending it back to Qin Huairu, Lin Hu took Sha Zhu home. Tell He Daqing that Shazhu's wife is finished. The bride price was given to the recorder and he boarded the boat. Getting married tomorrow.
The next day I drove to Qinjiacun. He married Qin Huairu and took her home.
