Sun Yuhou's family in Shuangshui Village was very lively this year. After Sun Shao 'an got married, he still chose to live in the team's breeding area. It couldn't be helped that his home wasn't spacious, but this already made He Xiulian very satisfied. To her, as long as she had a place to live with Sun Shao' an, she didn't care about anything else.
Sun Shao 'an had recently gotten married, so the smile on his face was much more than before. He was both gratified and disappointed that his younger brother could share the burden of the family for him. With one less responsibility, he did not have to work hard for this broken family like before, but at the same time, he lost his position as the pillar of the family. Of course, all of this was just a side issue. As long as his younger brother could make a name for himself, everything was not important.
In fact, what Sun Shaoping could bring to this family was nothing more than some sharing of money. Most of all, he brought hope and glory to this family. The most important thing in the countryside was labor. In this era, money might not be able to buy food.
The small cave was very crowded at this time. Shaoping's mother and He Fengying were making dumplings, Xiulian was helping, Lan Xiang was making the fire, the three children of Yuting's family were waiting for dinner around the pot, Sun Yuting and his elder brother Sun Yuhou were squatting under the Kang, smoking and chatting. Sun Shao 'an was accompanying Grandma, talking occasionally, but it was not known if she could hear them.
Sun Shao 'an was wondering if he could build a new cave after the new year. That way, he could move back home and save himself the trouble of having to live and eat. He calculated that the bricks and doors and windows at the entrance of the cave would cost more than 30 yuan. This family could afford it, but it was not easy to find labor. It was definitely impossible for the father and son to do it alone.
" It's time to eat." Xiulian's dumpling interrupted Sun Shao 'an's thoughts.
Sun Shao 'an glanced at the people in the room and whispered,""Hurry up and bring the first bowl to Grandma!”
Xiulian glared at him and smiled.""Damn it, you have to cook it for a long time. You can only eat it after the dumpling skin is cooked.”
Sun Shao 'an frowned." Dad and Second Dad haven't even brought the bowl yet. Why are you bringing it to me?"”
"They want to finish smoking before eating. Hurry up and eat!”He Xiulian stuffed the bowl into Sun Shao 'an's hands, and he had no choice but to catch it.
The dumplings with mutton filling were more delicious than those with pork filling. This was the opinion of most people in Huang Yuan, including Sun Shao 'an. He was sweating profusely after eating a big bowl of dumplings, but it was only a small amount for his appetite.
Xiulian saw that Shao 'an had finished eating, so she quickly put down her bowl and chopsticks and went to get another bowl for him. Sun Shao' an did not refuse because there were still many dumplings in the pot.
After dinner, Sun Yuting said,"Shao 'an, who do you think is trying to overturn the case?"。”
Sun Shao 'an was a little surprised by his second father's question. He smiled and asked,""What do you mean by right-wing reversal?"
Sun Yuting said," It's to oppose Leader Mao's cultural revolution, to promote decadent ideas of the capitalist class, and to destroy the revolutionary line of the working class…Our Sun family is the revolutionary political family of Shuangshui Village, so we must resolutely fight against these bad people who oppose Leader Mao to the end!”
"What revolutionary political family?" Sun Yuhou snorted. I was embarrassed when I heard that. Look at Shuangshui Village. Which family is not better than us? Don't do any sports. If you have time, go and build the toilet wall in your house. You've made a good courtyard look like a donkey pen. We're all from the same village. Who can make you feel better if we criticize you? When people scold you behind your back, they will mention our ancestors. In the future, don't come to the house to talk about your revolutionary movements. If there's anything, you can go to Fu Tang. Don't say these words about not getting food at home.”
Sun Yuting's face turned red from his brother's words, and He Fengying's face was also ugly, but she didn't dare to say anything now. Moreover, his brother had given the children one yuan each as a New Year's gift, but the couple didn't say anything.
Sun Shao 'an's face was also red. He said," Dad, don't say anymore. I plan to build a new kiln in the spring. In the future, Lanxiang won't have to stay at Uncle Junhai's house."”
Hearing this, Xiulian's face lit up with joy. Who would want to squeeze with livestock if they could have their own cave dwelling? She was 120 percent in favor of Sun Shao 'an's idea.
"There's no problem with money and food, but we don't have enough manpower…" Sun Yuhou frowned.
Sun Shao 'an thought for a moment and said," I'll talk to Fugao and Haimin. They should be able to help."”
Tian Futang's family of three had a rather dull New Year's Eve dinner. Tian Runsheng and his mother only ate at the place. Tian Futang drank glass after glass alone. He suddenly said,"After the new year, I'm going to the capital to look for Runye.”
"Can you bring it back?" asked Runye's mother.”
Tian Futang sighed." I don't know. That woman is very stubborn. I'll try my best."”
Tian Runsheng raised his head and said,"I also want to go to Beijing."”
Tian Futang glared at his son and shouted,""Read your book properly. Do you think I'm going sightseeing?”
Tian Runsheng did not dare to speak anymore. Runye's mother said," It'd be best if you could bring her back. A little girl running so far away really worries me endlessly…"
Hao Hongmei from Hao Village was also having her New Year's Eve dinner. Like Sun Shaoping's family, she didn't have much food. However, after the team killed the pig this year, they accidentally gave her family two catties of meat. Since when did a landlord have the same treatment as a poor peasant? Many people couldn't figure it out, but no one dared to question the words of the brigade secretary, Hao Youxiang.
Hongmei's mother only took half a catty of minced meat and prepared to make the rest into minced meat so that her daughter could take it back to school to eat. The child was growing and there was not much fine grain at home.
Hao Hongmei's father, Hao Shutong, could guess why she was able to get the meat this year and why she hadn't been criticized at the recent meetings. The reason was that letter from Beijing.
"Hongmei, you should also find time to reply to her!”Hao Youxiang was looking forward to his daughter's marriage more and more. According to his thoughts, his daughter would get married as soon as she graduated. It didn't matter if she went to university or not.
Hao Hongmei blushed and said," Yes, I know. I'll write it when I get to school. It's not convenient to send letters here."”Recently, her father had urged her several times, but she did not know what to write at home.
Hao Shutong nodded." You have to be careful about this. Don't let the child wait too long."”
Hongmei's mother said worriedly," You won't be able to go home for the New Year even if you work outside. Sigh, Hongmei, if you go out in the future, you'll have to come back for the New Year. Your father and I will only have you. We still need you to take care of us in old age."”
Hao Hongmei didn't know what to say to her mother. She wanted to go to Beijing now. If what Sun Shaoping said was true, there was still more than a year before the college entrance examination. Hao Hongmei felt that time had passed very long. She didn't know how he spent the New Year alone tonight. Did he make dumplings?
On New Year's Eve, the lights were bright and thousands of people laughed, and the night snow was sad.
Guo Xue had dinner at the office and was in a daze by the window. In the past, she was always performing at this time, so there was no time for her to feel lonely. But now, she was the only one left in the dormitory. It was really boring. If Sun Shaoping was also spending the New Year alone, she might have stayed tonight. As for what would happen if she stayed, it made her feel embarrassed. But why did she suddenly have an older sister? Was she really his older sister? She was his cousin. She didn't know what this blockhead was thinking. Fortunately, she left him a pair of gloves today. He would return them in a few days.
Guo Xue clearly knew that she liked Sun Shaoping, but Sun Shaoping seemed to still treat her as a friend. She had hinted many times, and it was very obvious, but this guy was always not on the right track, which really made her worried.
The deputy regiment commander had told Guo Xue a few days ago that a leader had seen her performance and liked it very much. He hoped that she would be transferred to be a personal secretary and be promoted to deputy company. The deputy regiment commander was rejected by Guo Xue before he could finish his sentence. She would not do such a thing just to be promoted, even if many of her colleagues were doing it. Life was not easy. She did not despise these sisters, but she could not agree with them. She really came here because she liked dancing. It would be great if she could be promoted, but she wouldn't force it if she couldn't. Originally, she wanted to tell Sun Shaoping about these things today. At least, she could win his praise. Now, she could only wait until the next time they met.
