Song Zigan ate it with big mouthfuls, and added some pickles from time to time. But eating doesn't look rude.
Zhang Hongmei waited until the vegetables were not too hot, picked up a pair of hands and ate slowly.
Song Zigan ate three of them, Zhang Hongmei only finished one, and then watched Song Zigan eat the fourth with a smile on his face.
Song Zigan felt embarrassed after watching it.
Zhang Hongmei quickly withdrew her eyes, "Eat more, the rest is yours. If you can't finish it, take it home." After speaking, she picked up a sweet potato and peeled it to eat. Sweet potatoes in drought years are very sweet. The more Zhang Hongmei ate, the happier she was .
After eating the fourth Song Zigan, I stopped eating it. Seeing Zhang Hongmei's expression of eating sweet potatoes was particularly enjoyable, so I also picked up one.
"It's so sweet and delicious. It's even better than pastries!"
"Isn't it delicious? I just love the current sweet potatoes. Last year there was a drought, and the sweet potatoes were quite sweet after being removed, and they are even sweeter after being kept in the cellar for so long."
After Zhang Hongmei finished eating sweet potatoes, she stopped eating. Seeing Song Zigan finish eating, she handed him another potato, "This potato is not sweet, but it has special sand. You can try it."
Song Zigan was not polite either. He peeled the skin and took a bite. Although it had no taste, it made a rustle in his mouth. The taste is very good.
Zhang Hongmei saw that Song Zigan didn't eat any more, and didn't let him go any further. She would fill him up in a while, so as not to eat too much all at once, which would make her stomach feel uncomfortable.
Song Ziqian sat slumped on the bench, rubbing his belly, "Hongmei, the food you cook is so delicious, you are so skillful."
"Thank you for the compliment! Let's take a break before going to the bookstore. Everyone is probably going to eat at this time."
"Yeah, I can't even walk now."
"You sit down, I'll clean up the table, I'll find a cloth bag, and bring these back for the two old people to taste."
"Thank you so much, Hongmei! Then I won't be polite."
After Zhang Hongmei cleared the table, she came back and saw five catties of food stamps on it, which were still used throughout the country.
Song Ziqian cleared his throat, "Hongmei, I know this is not good, but food is too precious now, you can't refuse."
"Then I won't be polite. Let's go for a walk in the yard to digest food, or I will feel uncomfortable soon."
The two walked around the yard a few times before Song Zigan felt better. "Hongmei, I'll dig the land and turn the fields for you when you're enlightened."
"No need, there are not many lands, and besides, you may have to make up classes in the second year of high school.
"That's right. Your studies are too intense. I'll talk about it later. Do you have any books to buy at the bookstore? If not, you don't have to go with me. Hurry up and read, I've delayed you for a long time."
"It's okay. I'll see if there are any books I need."
"Then let's go!" It was already half an hour after the two arrived at the bookstore by bicycle.
There are not many books in it, but there are many comic books. Zhang Hongmei picked a few, and bought a constitution, a map, and a dictionary.
Song Ziqian also bought a few comic books, which were different from Zhang Hongmei's. "Let's read them later."
"Hehe. These are for the children in the village. It's not realistic to see them with you."
Now Song Zigan was a little embarrassed, and the two paid their farewells and went home.
Zhang Hongmei didn't have anything to do when she got home, and she steamed another pot of vegetables, and went to see Liu Jianguo later.
Instead of taking sweet potatoes for him, he took dried sweet potatoes, which are easier to put away, and chewing two pieces can relieve him when he is hungry.
Put the six vegetable dumplings in a small basin, find a piece of cloth, tie them up, hang them on the handlebars, and tie a small half bag of dried sweet potatoes to the back seat.
When we arrived at the cotton spinning factory, some workers had already left work. But he didn't see Liu Jianguo after standing for a long time, so he had to go to the guard again to find someone.
When Liu Jianguo heard that someone came looking for him, he guessed it was Zhang Hongmei.
"Hongmei, are you in town again?"
"Well, I'm in high school."
"Really? My sister is amazing."
"Brother Jianguo, this is my vegetable pastry. It's not cold yet. Do you want to eat it now?"
"Eat, I've been hungry for a long time. I haven't been idle all day, and I ate two wotou with three-in-one noodles at noon."
Liu Jianguo ate all these six vegetables, making Zhang Hongmei feel hungry after seeing them.
"Brother Jianguo, these are dried sweet potatoes. You put them in your pocket and chew two pieces when you are hungry. I will go back."
"Come on, ride slowly."
Zhang Hongmei didn't want to eat vegetables anymore when she got home, so she took out the? A bag of bread, a bag of pure milk, and a simple dinner.
Today there is a lot of fire, the kang is hot, and it is very comfortable to lie on it.
The next day I still got up to carry water, and then I read the newspaper all day.
Zhang Hongmei is not a selfish person. Tomorrow, I will ask the teacher if I need to get the school to borrow from each other?
Get up early on Monday, eat sweet potatoes at noon to deal with it, and eat enough stick noodles every day.
The teacher also specially praised Zhang Hongmei in the class, letting everyone learn from her selfless spirit, and willing to share good learning materials with everyone. It made Zhang Hongmei quite embarrassed.
And the radio was finally configured, listening to the sound of the radio made the students in the first year of high school very envious.
It was Saturday again, Zhang Hongmei fetched water, ate a bowl of noodles, first went to the post office to find Huang Ying to get the newspaper back, and then went to the station to wait for the bus.
Arriving in the county in a leisurely manner, Erya and Zhuzi also boarded the car, and the three of them were very excited to meet each other in the car.
"Hongmei, how are you doing in the city?"
"It's okay, but it's more troublesome to carry water. We have morning self-study, so we can't keep up with carrying water. We all carry water once a week, and I can say it myself."
"Are you going home this time too?"
"Well, you are also coming back because of Brother Jingze, right?"
"Well, come back and take a look." Zhang Hongmei was embarrassed. In fact, she forgot about this matter, but she just thought she should go home, but she didn't remember it for some reason.
"Hongmei, how is your study? Are you tired?"
"It's okay, everyone's learning motivation is very high, and I'm ashamed to be lazy."
Zhu Zhu scratched his head, "You're so smart, there must be no problem."
"By the way, Sister Erya, I went to see Brother Jianguo last week, they are busy."
"I knew it, otherwise he wouldn't be able to come back during the Chinese New Year. He won't be able to come back this spring."
"It doesn't matter whether you come back or not. Now it's all collective work. There is no more than one person, and no less than one person." Zhu Zi rolled his eyes.
"Yeah, if you have a centimeter, you can share the food, if you don't work, you will have nothing. I am afraid that he will work in the factory and have no food to eat."
"Don't worry, there's something to eat, so I'm sure you won't be hungry." Zhang Hongmei didn't know what to say.
"Sister Erya, you have spring planting leave, but we don't."
"It's right that you don't have vacations. You see, brother Jingze doesn't come back year after year. You're welcome. You just came back two weeks after you left. You can read more books when you have time." (Remember the website URL : www.hlnovel.com
