Since he had a bicycle for transportation, it was not even half past eleven when Zhou Yang returned to the village!
When he got home, Zhou Yang didn't have time to rest, so he got into the kitchen and started making lunch.
In fact, he could also go to his father-in-law's house for a meal, which he often did before.
It's just that now he really can't get used to eating multi-grain noodles and steamed buns with porridge, which is a throat-irritating thing, so from the beginning he gave up the idea of going to the Li family's old house for a meal.
The tomatoes at home were ripe, so Zhou Yang simply made scrambled eggs with tomatoes at noon, and then steamed a small pot of rice.
Put the fragrant white rice on the bottom of the lunch box, and pour the sweet and sour tomato and egg soup on top. Wouldn't it be the 1975 version of tomato and egg rice bowl?
After doing this, he poured another pot of water, and then Zhou Yang rushed directly to the fields!
In the oats field on the western slope, Li Youwei and a group of women are replanting beans!
Since there hasn’t been much rain since the beginning of spring this year, many of the oats planted have not sprouted.
In order not to waste land, crops with shorter growth cycles can only be replanted after rains to ensure harvests.
They say three women make a show, but now that there are more than a dozen women together, isn’t that all kinds of gossip flying all over the place!
The biggest thing that happened in the village in the past few days was that Hou San kidnapped Shen Chenlu, framed Zhou Yang, and was eventually killed by Chen Gang.
As Zhou Yang's real wife, Li Youwei has naturally become the object of everyone's attention!
"Xiaowei, I want to ask you something, which two scoundrels in Zuojia Village were really beaten down by your men?"
"Yes, Xiaowei, I never heard that Zhou Zhiqing can fight before. Why is he so good?"
"I heard from my man that those two second-rate guys were beaten badly by Zhou Zhiqing, especially the fat guy. It seemed like a dozen of his ribs were broken..."
Li Youwei actually had some doubts in her heart. In her eyes, her men's strength was indeed average.
But that day, she saw with her own eyes that her man was fighting one against two, and beat the two bad guys who often did bad things to the ground. At that time, she felt that her eyes were dazzled.
I originally wanted to ask Zhou Yang, but there are too many things going on these days and I always forget.
So many people asked her today, and she didn't know how to answer for a while!
Fortunately, there were several sisters-in-law around, and the elder sister-in-law Lin Aizhi immediately said: "My uncle knows how to fight. In fact, it was my man who defeated those two bastards. My uncle was just there to help!"
"No, my man said that the fight had already been finished when Jianguo came over?" A woman questioned.
However, Lin Aizhi said loudly: "My uncle is a scholar. You have seen a few scholars who know how to fight. It's just that Jianguo didn't want to be in the limelight, so he put the title on my uncle!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the women around him suddenly realized it and expressed their own hindsight opinions:
"I'm just saying, how can an intellectual like Zhou Zhiqing defeat two people by himself? It turns out it was Jianguo's handiwork!"
"I have already guessed that Zhou Zhiqing is afraid of trampling ants to death when he walks. How could he beat someone like that!"
"Jianguo is indeed the roughest guy in our team, and his skills are amazing. Fortunately, that guy doesn't beat his wife, otherwise Miss Aizhi would have suffered a lot..."
Lin Aizhi immediately laughed and said: "My father-in-law is suppressing my family, who dares to beat his wife!"
"Yes, your old Li family has a good family tradition. Who doesn't beat his wife these days!"
"That's right, my family has a good temper, and they will take action when things don't go their way!"
"Sister-in-law Aizhi is so lucky. Brother Jianguo has always..."
Under Lin Aizhi's gag, the women no longer paid attention to Zhou Yang's beating, which made Li Youwei relax a little.
At this moment, a girl who was working in the fields with her mother suddenly said: "Sister Xiaowei, Bao'er's father has brought you food!"
Li Youwei looked up and found her man walking leisurely on the road carrying a lunch box, less than a few hundred meters away from them.
When the women on the side saw this scene, they became excited again:
"Xiaowei, your man is here, why don't you hurry up, hahaha!"
"Xiaowei is such a lucky person. Look at how considerate Zhou Zhiqing is, giving him meals every day!"
"That's right, it's not like my family. No matter how late it is, I have to go back and do it..."
Li Youwei was already very thin-skinned. Being teased by such a group of aunts and ladies, her face suddenly turned red.
The second sister-in-law on the side immediately said: "That's what my Xiaowei got in exchange for her sincerity. It's not like you don't know what my uncle was like in the past few years!"
"That's right, Zhou Zhiqing was really outrageous in those years!"
"Who says it's not the case? In those years, everyone didn't feel sorry for Weiwei. Fortunately, now the pain has finally come to an end..."
The female director on the side looked at the sun, immediately stopped everyone's gossip, and said with a smile: "Please stop talking, it's almost noon, let's go home and cook!"
After hearing the words of the women director, all the women stopped what they were doing.
Then they got up and shook the soil, and then walked into the village in groups of twos and threes, talking and laughing.
When passing by Zhou Yang, many people greeted him.
And Zhou Yang didn't put on any airs and answered them one by one.
Soon, Zhou Yang arrived at the edge of the field, but instead of going over, he shouted at the top of his lungs: "I'll wait for you under the big tree over there!"
Li Youwei responded, then said a few words to several sisters-in-law, and then walked over to Zhou Yang's position!
Seeing Xiao Nizi's face covered with sweat and her forehead still covered with a thin layer of dust, Zhou Yang said with some distress: "If we don't work anymore, I can afford to support you!"
"What's the point of not going to work? Besides, if you don't go to work, you'll be idle at home!"
Li Youwei felt sweet in her heart. She could hear that her man felt sorry for her.
But it is really impossible not to go to work. There are several thousand people in the entire Babaoliang Brigade, but there are only a few people who do not go to work.
Anyone who fails to work without special circumstances will be laughed at.
In the long run, she might even be reported as holding back socialism, and she didn't want that.
Zhou Yang also knows that this girl has a stubborn temper. I am afraid that simple preaching will not be effective. He should find a way later!
"Wash your hands and eat!"
"Well, what delicious food did you cook today?" Li Youwei asked with a smile.
"you guess!"
"I smell eggs. Did you scramble them?"
"It would be a shame not to be a police dog with your nose!"
Then Zhou Yang opened the lunch box and handed it to Li Youwei's hand.
Looking at the golden eggs paired with red tomatoes, the aroma went straight to her forehead. Li Youwei suddenly said happily: "I really guessed it!"
But when she saw the half-full lunch box with eggs, she felt a little distressed.
Then he complained: "I'm afraid you gave Huo Huo all the eggs at home. It's such a waste!"
However, Zhou Yang said indifferently: "It's all eaten in the stomach, how can it be considered a waste!"
To be honest, Zhou Yang really didn't think there was anything he couldn't afford for eggs that cost eighty cents a pound.
"Just eat whatever can fill your stomach. We are not capitalists, so we have to eat well!"
"Haha, just this meal to pay back to the capitalists, you are not even well-off. I will let you see what a real capitalist is in the future!" Zhou Yang said with a smile.
"I don't want to see it. I'm content if I can afford white rice every day!"
"Hahaha, yes, we will eat white rice every day from now on!"
"Hahaha, then I will be blessed..."
