The Green Tea’s Crushing Victories in the ’70s

Chapter 31 Thirty cups of green tea

Tong Xuelu was startled, thinking that Wen Rugui would come back so soon, right?

She tidyed up her clothes and walked towards the door.

When she was about to open the door, she asked cautiously: “Who is it?”

At this time, there is no surveillance, no cat’s eye, and no anti-theft door. If someone is standing outside, she would be very dangerous to open the door.

A strange woman’s voice came from outside: “Hello, I’m next to you, my husband’s name is Wei.”

The voice sounded very kind, and Tong Xuelu opened the door.

I saw a woman in her fifties standing at the door.

The other party has a fair complexion and elegant features. He wore a white “Queliang” shirt on the upper body and black “Queliang” trousers on the lower body. No folds were visible on the clothes.

Tong Xuelu looked at the woman in front of him, and three words appeared in his mind: rich man.

Although “zhenliang” began to appear in the early 1960s, they were produced in small batches for export and foreign exchange, and only a small amount would be exported to domestic sales in Beijing, Tianjin and Shanghai.

It takes hours to line up to buy a “zhenliang” dress. The key point is that this dress is particularly expensive!

A shirt costs about 15 yuan, and the monthly salary of an ordinary worker is only 30 yuan. Most people are reluctant to spend money on such a piece of clothing.

It is not an exaggeration to say that the “Qingliang” of this era is the same as the later LV and GUCCI, and it is a symbol of status.

And the whole set of “real good” in front of this woman, isn’t she just rich?

When Tong Xuelu was looking at the woman in front of him, the woman was also looking at Tong Xuelu.

A stunning look flashed through her black and white eyes, and then her brows frowned.

She felt that the person in front of her was a bit familiar, but she couldn’t remember where she had seen it for a while.

Shen Wanrong showed a gentle smile on her face and said: “My husband’s family name is Wei, my surname is Shen, and I live next to you with my two grandsons.”

Then she pointed to the small courtyard on the right, which was about five or six meters away from the small courtyard on Tong Xuelu’s side.

Tong Xuelu looked in the direction she was pointing: “Hello, my name is Tong Xuelu. Tong is a single person in the winter. My brother and sister and I just moved here today because the house has not been cleaned up yet. Visit everyone in the past.”

Shen Wanrong was startled slightly.

Last name Tong?

No one she knew had the surname Tong.

But in that remark just now she only mentioned herself and her younger siblings, but did not mention her parents. Could it be that their parents are gone?

But if you don’t have parents, how can you afford or rent such a house?

Shen Wanrong had a lot of doubts in her heart, but it was difficult to ask questions because they were not familiar with each other.

“We only moved here this year. The house has been empty and unoccupied. Now it will be fine for you to come, and we will have a companion in the future.” She said that she passed the chestnuts she brought over, “This is a relative for us The chestnuts sent here are very soft, take them back and eat them.”

Tong Xuelu always didn’t like to push around. Since he wants to live here in the future, it is common for neighbors to deliver food.

So she didn’t refuse, and smiled and took it over: “Then I’m not welcome, thank you Grandma Shen, autumn chestnuts taste the best.”

Shen Wanrong also didn’t like the push to push things around. Seeing Tong Xuelu generously accepting things, she had a better impression of her.

At this moment, a chubby little girl ran out of the yard: “Grandma, where have you been? Zhuzhu didn’t see you when she woke up!”

When Shen Wanrong saw her granddaughter, a big smile appeared on her face: “You run slowly, and be careful not to fall!”

As soon as the voice fell, the little girl had a meal, then sat on the ground, and then fell: “Oh, grandma, I fell and want you to hug you!”

Tong Xuelu: “…”

You’re so good at a young age, do you still have to grow up?

This acting is a bit too perfunctory.

Shen Wanrong was not surprised, she smiled and walked over to pick up her granddaughter, and whispered softly: “The ground is so dirty, how do you lie down when you lie down? You will change your clothes later.”

Wei Zhuzhu pouted: “Grandma, I fell. If the clothes are dirty, just pat them. Who did you talk to, grandma?”

Shen Wanrong: “A new neighbor came next door. Grandma came over to say hello.”

“Is that sister?” Wei Zhuzhu looked at Tong Xuelu, her eyes brightened, “Sister is so beautiful! Grandma, hug me! I want to see beautiful sister!”

Shen Wanrong walked over with her granddaughter and smiled helplessly: “I made you laugh. This child has liked good-looking things and people since he was a child.”

Who is not?

Severe Yan control Tong Xuelu smiled and expressed understanding: “I also like people who look good.”

When Wei Zhuzhu heard this, his eyes brightened: “Sure enough, people who are good-looking have the same idea. Grandpa said this is the same as what a hero sees!”

Tong Xuelu was amused by her self-confident appearance, really a funny child.

Shen Wanrong’s face showed a pampering and helpless smile.

At this moment, Tong Jiaxin walked out of the room and was seen by Wei Zhuzhu.

Wei Zhuzhu immediately struggled to get down: “Grandma, hurry me down, I saw a nice brother!”

Jiaxin Tong was stunned when he heard this: good-looking brother? Talk about him? Count her vision!

Wei Zhuzhu is six years old this year, a little taller and a little older than the average child. Shen Wanrong can’t hold her in this struggle.

Wei Zhuzhu jumped down and rushed to Tong Jiaxin like firecrackers: “Hello brother, my name is Wei Zhuzhu, what is your name?”

“Wei Zhuzhu?” Tong Jiaxin widened his eyes, and then burst into laughter, “Fortunately, your parents gave you an extra bead, or you will become a pig feeder, hahaha…”

Tong Xuelu: “…” This bear kid really didn’t hit the house for a day.

The person who was embarrassed just now was Shen Wanrong, and now it is Tong Xuelu’s turn: “I’m really sorry, my brother owes too much to his mouth, I will take care of him when I look back!”

Shen Wanrong smiled and waved her hand: “It’s okay, the children’s affairs will be solved by their children.”

The Wei Zhuzhu inside is quite big: “Brother, for your good-looking sake, I won’t be angry with you this time, but you haven’t told me your name yet?”

Tong Jiaxin snorted: “Why should I tell you your name? You don’t look good!”

Wei Zhuzhu: “Brother, you look so good, but why don’t your eyes work well? I obviously look good, and if you don’t tell me your name, how can I be good friends with you?”

Tong Jiaxin’s nostrils are almost up to the sky: “I don’t want to be friends with girls!”

“…”

Tong Xuelu saw her mouth twitching outside.

She didn’t understand the character of Tong Jiaxin, a straight man, how did she marry a wife in his previous life?

At this moment, Tong Jiaming came out of the house: “Jia Xin, you can’t speak so rudely!”

Although Tong Jiaxin was very unconvinced, seeing his second brother’s face sulking, he was a little frustrated in his heart.

But before he had time to apologize, Wei Zhuzhu pushed him away, rushed to Tong Jiaming, and smiled sweetly: “Hello brother, my name is Wei Zhuzhu, what is your name?”

Tong Jiaxin: “…?”

Tong Jiaming said: “Hello, my name is Tong Jiaming, and that is my brother Tong Jiaxin.”

Wei Zhuzhu smiled so that his eyes narrowed: “Brother, you not only look good, you also have a nice voice, but you are also so gentle to people, brother, you are so nice!”

Tong Xuelu was amazed.

When you are young, you can shoot rainbow farts. When you grow up, are you afraid that you can’t catch up with your beautiful little brother?

Tong Jiaming has never seen a person who speaks so directly, with a delicate face blushing like pig liver.

Tong Mianmian kicked her short legs out of the room: “Sister, you are right, my second brother is very good.”

Wei Zhuzhu saw Tong Mianmian’s eyes light up again: “Sister, you look so good-looking, just as good-looking as your second brother!”

The little dumpling blushed, and his body twisted: “My sister is also pretty.”

Wei Zhuzhu nodded: “I know, I look very good-looking, and my brother looks very ugly. I really envy you for having such a good-looking sister and brother!”

Tong Mianmian’s big eyes blinked, and he tilted his head and said milkily, “Is your eldest brother as ugly as my third brother?”

Tong Jiaxin: “…??”

Wei Zhuzhu: “No, my eldest brother you are much uglier than your third brother!”

Tong Mianmian opened his mouth in shock, as if he was saying, “Is there anyone who looks uglier than the third brother? What is that ugly?”

Tong Jiaxin: “…”

Old girl, I’m heartbroken! !

Tong Jiaxin felt his heart broken.

When Tong Xuelu listened to the children talking, tears came out of her smile.

Wei Zhuzhu thinks that the Tong family looks very good-looking, and she doesn’t want to go home anymore: “Grandma, I want to play here.”

Shen Wanrong: “Don’t you see that your sisters and brothers are all cleaning? You will delay people here. You will come and play after they have finished cleaning.”

Wei Zhuzhu thought for a while and said, “Okay, then I will come back tomorrow!”

**

After Shen Wanrong and Wei Zhuzhu left, Tong Xuelu went back to the room and combed his hair, and then went to the food station to buy food.

Before going out, she asked Tong Jiaming to wash the rice and cook, then boil the chestnuts and peel them.

Every time she buys something, Tong Xuelu deeply feels how scarce the material is in this era.

This time was different from before. She didn’t find a way to flatter her, so she could only queue up obediently.

It took almost an hour to buy back a handful of rape, two cabbage and three tomatoes.

The meat in the supply and marketing cooperative has long been sold out, and only eggs are left.

With what happened last time, she didn’t dare to go shopping easily on the black market at this moment.

She returned home with vegetables and eggs, sighing in her heart that it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice.

When he returned home, he heard Tong Jiaxin’s cheers at the door.

“Great, we will have eggs to eat in the future! Brother, let me feed the chickens in the future!”

Feed the chickens?

Where’s the chicken at home?

Tong Xuelu knocked on the door with questions: “Mianmian, sister is back.”

A sound of footsteps came towards the door, and Tong Xuelu thought that it would be Tong Jiaming who would come to open the door. Who knows that the door was opened, and a warm and handsome face appeared in front of her.

Tong Xuelu was startled: “Are you coming back so soon?”

come back.

Wen Rugui never felt that these two words sound so wonderful: “Well, I will be back after returning the car.”

As he spoke, he naturally took what was in her hand.

Men really need training.

Tong Xuelu was very satisfied with his initiative to bring things up.

She closed the door, and asked as she walked in: “By the way, I just heard what’s going on feeding chickens outside?”

Wen Rugui’s eyelashes trembled: “I bought two chickens with my friend to celebrate your housewarming.”

Tong Xuelu looked towards Tong Jiaxin and saw a plump hen shrunken in the corner, looking frightened.

Tong Mianmian stared at the old hen with big watery eyes, with a shocked look.

The family’s compound is not big enough, and the chickens will taste great. No one raises chickens in the compound, so this is the first time that Tong Mianmian has seen live chickens.

Tong Xuelu looked back: “Thank you, it cost you money again, but didn’t you just say that there are two chickens? What about the other one?”

Wen Rugui: “Kill it, in the kitchen.”

Tong Xuelu’s eyes lit up: “It’s great. I was worried that I would not be able to entertain you tonight! Then I’ll make a braised chestnut chicken, a garlic cabbage, and a tomato egg soup. All alive.”

Wen Rugui listened and couldn’t help swallowing: “Okay.”

After bringing things to the kitchen, Tong Xuelu asked Tong Jiaming to come and help.

Wen Rugui said that he could also help, but Tong Xuelu did not agree.

She asked Tong Mian to pull him to sit in the hall.

**

There are bundles of dry wood and straw in the kitchen, which can last a few days.

Tong Xuelu asked Tong Jiaming to wash the vegetables and peel the garlic, and she began to clean up the old hen.

Fortunately, the old hen was killed well, otherwise she would really not dare to kill the chicken.

But this old hen was delicious at first glance. Unlike the chickens that grew up on feed, the meat was fat and tender enough, and it was tight.

Thinking of the braised chestnut chicken in soy sauce makes people want to drool.

She removed the neck and **** of the chicken, then chopped it into cubes, washed it and blanched it in a pot.

Put it in a pan with cold oil, add onion, ginger, garlic, star anise and other seasonings to stir-fry when the oil is hot, stir-fry the aroma and then add the chicken, stir-fry repeatedly until the color changes, then add soy sauce and rock sugar, then add boiling water and simmer on high heat. chestnut.

The aroma of chestnut and chicken are reconciled in the stew, and the aroma of the seasoning is combined. When the juice is collected, both the chestnut and the chicken are boiled into an attractive maroon.

The scent fills the room.

Tong Xuelu sprinkled the green onion on the braised chestnut chicken. The green onion was set against the red chestnut chicken.

The color, fragrance and taste!

She handed the chestnut chicken to Tong Jiaming: “Take it to the hall and cover it with a basin.”

The chestnut chicken exuded a fragrant and attractive scent, directed at Tong Jiaming’s nose, making him unable to help swallowing.

Tong Jiaxin, who was in contact with the hen in the compound, rushed over when he smelled the scent: “Second brother, it’s so delicious! Can I taste it first?”

Tong Jiaxin swallowed while talking. He felt that he was not very hungry at first, but when he smelled the scent, he felt that he could eat two cows!

Tong Jiaming refused: “No!”

Tong Jiaxin snorted when he heard the words, and followed into the hall smelling the fragrance all the way.

In the hall, Wen Rugui and Tong Mianmian were staring at them.

Seeing the two coming in, Wen Rugui couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

He really didn’t know how to get along with children, especially such a delicate little girl.

After making the braised chestnut chicken, Tong Xuelu quickly made a garlic cabbage and tomato egg drop soup.

After preparing the dishes, she decided to make another red date cake, which will be brought back by Wen Rugui.

She washed the red dates and removed the core, put them in a steamer, steamed them, mashed them into a puree, poured them into the flour together with sugar and yeast, and stirred them evenly. While stirring, pour in warm water until the flour is turned into a batter.

She poured the batter into the steaming dish to steam, and then she washed her face in the yard before going to the hall to eat.

In the hall, the two brothers Tong Jiaming and Tong Jiaxin had already packed their meals, and they were waiting for Tong Xuelu to come alone.

Tong Jiaxin was hungry and hungry. He craned his neck and looked out the door. The saliva in his mouth was about to be swallowed.

Seeing Tong Xuelu coming in, his eyes suddenly lit up like a thief.

Seeing her blushing with heat, Wen Rugui suddenly regretted her decision to stay after the meal.

If he doesn’t stay, she won’t have to cook so many meals.

Tong Xuelu didn’t feel hard for herself. She enjoyed the process of cooking and watched others enjoy the food she made.

Seeing everyone looking at herself, she smiled with red lips: “Why are you looking at me? Let’s eat.”

Tong Jiaxin cheered: “It’s great, it’s time for dinner!”

Wen Rugui looked at the braised chestnut chicken and wanted to give Tong Xuelu a piece of it, but there were still so many people sitting on the table.

He thought about it, but in the end he didn’t do it.

Tong Xuelu took a piece of chestnut and put it in his mouth. The taste was soft and fragrant, which was very good.

“Comrade Wen, you are welcome, eat more chicken, this chestnut is also delicious.”

“it is good.”

Wen Rugui took a bite with a piece of chicken.

The chicken is soft and smooth, and the rich fragrance jumps in the mouth, making the fragrance too fragrant.

Tong Jiaxin is always the most loyal fan of food. He pours the soup on the rice, takes a bite of the rice and eats the meat, and it tastes so delicious.

“It’s delicious! I thought the braised pork was the best meat I have ever eaten, but now I think the braised chestnut chicken is even more delicious than the braised pork!”

“I wish I could eat like this every day!”

No one listened to him because everyone was struggling.

Although Wen Rugui didn’t say anything, he agreed with Tong Jiaxin’s words.

The braised chestnut chicken is really fragrant, the garlic cabbage is also very crispy and delicious, and the tomato egg drop soup is also delicious.

He suddenly didn’t regret staying.

But thinking of the pickled cabbage fish that he hadn’t been able to eat before, his resentment couldn’t help but deepen.

After half an hour, all the dishes on the table were cleaned up.

Tong Jiaxin leaned on the chair and touched his stomach, feeling that such a life is called life.

During the days when the old family came over, melon porridge with sauerkraut, so what is the life of people? !

After a meal, the red date cake is also steamed.

After letting it cool, Tong Xuelu cut the red date cake and wrapped it in pieces and handed it to Wen Rugui, who was about to go back: “This is red date cake. Thank you very much today!”

If it weren’t for his help, she really couldn’t rent such a good house.

Without him repairing and cleaning up the house in advance, she would not be able to worry as much as she does now.

Without him borrowing a car with someone to help move, she didn’t know how many tossing back and forth.

Without him bringing the chicken and the hen, she couldn’t even eat a meal.

She owes him too much, and she will have to pay it back slowly in the future.

Wen Rugui didn’t expect that she just made red date cake in the kitchen.

After getting along several times, he also knew that Tong Xuelu was not like other girls.

He took the red date cake, and the corners of his lips raised slightly: “Thank you for your hospitality, the food is delicious.”

Tong Xuelu looked at the sky and urged: “You go back quickly, so you don’t have to go back without a car when it’s too late.”

“it is good.”

It’s time to go.

He asked the research center for three days off, and he had to rush back overnight if he said anything tonight, otherwise the dean might come and arrest him himself tomorrow.

Sending Wen Rugui to the door, Tong Xuelu beckoned to him: “If you want to come over for dinner in the future, just come over, I’ll make it for you.”

The sunset was overwhelming, and the red clouds shone on her face, dyeing her face red, like a rouge.

Seeing her smiling face like a flower, Wen Rugui’s heart moved: “Okay.”

After saying this, he forced himself to turn his head and leave cruelly.

Seeing Wen Rugui’s figure disappearing at the entrance of the alley, Tong Xuelu closed the door and returned.

**

In these years, there is a lack of material, and everyone is trying to be self-sufficient as much as possible, and the military district compound is no exception.

There is a special place in the military area compound to grow vegetables and raise chickens. If you raise more, it will not work, but it is still possible to raise one or two in each household.

The Wen family also raised two hens. The two hens were raised from chicks to old hens personally by Mr. Wen.

Mr. Wen also named them Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu respectively.

After dinner every day, Mr. Wen always walks to the chicken breeding place to see them when he goes for a walk.

But when he walked to the chicken farm this evening, he found that Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu had disappeared!

Old man Wen was very anxious: “Xiaozong, how about Xiaowu and Xiaoliu? Why didn’t I see them?”

Uncle Zong searched all around, but did not see the shadows of Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu, and even the eggs were gone!

Uncle Zong was also anxious: “Commander, Xiaowu and Xiaoliu are not in the chicken coop, and I have seen a few nearby, none of them!”

“Then what are you doing in a daze? Go and ask Xiao Wang!”

“Yes, Commander!”

Uncle Zong’s feet were like the wind, and ran to the dormitory to find the little king of the orderly soldier.

Xiao Wang is the person in charge of the chicken breeding department, and he is usually responsible for cleaning and registration.

When Uncle Zong went to the dormitory, Xiao Wang was eating.

Hearing Uncle Zong’s question, he stared: “Uncle Zong, don’t you know? But Rugui said that the commander wanted to kill the chicken and make soup, so I killed the chicken for him. Did he not take the chicken back? ?”

Uncle Zong was shocked: “How many chickens did he kill? Why did he kill chickens?”

When Xiao Wang saw Uncle Zong’s appearance, he suddenly felt something was wrong: “He asked me to kill Xiao Wu, Xiao Liu was taken away by him, and I don’t know where to take it.”

Uncle Zong’s face was pale.

Uncle Zong’s hands trembled.

Uncle Zong choked silently.

Xiao Wu is dead, Xiao Liu is missing!

Out of the dormitory, Uncle Zong rushed all the way: “Commander, something big happened!!”
