The Sweetness of the Seventies

Chapter 619: Anxiety, Cui Banxian

617

Since she went to Qijia Village as an educated youth, she has only received letters from her family, but she has never received any news from her family asking her to go back for the New Year.

She knew that the family conditions were not good and there were few rooms, but they could always squeeze in during the New Year.

But her mother repeatedly said in the letter that her two brothers were married and there was no room at home. Not only did she cry poor, but she also often asked her for money.

At the beginning, Huang Jingli secretly saved some and sent it back, but later, her heart was cold.

I don’t know how they knew that she was admitted to the university, and they actually sent the letter to the school asking her to go home.

This has never happened before, so Huang Jingli is a little scared.

After so many years, she is tired and exhausted, and she also wants to find someone to marry.

However, how many good people are there in the world? Huang Jingli couldn’t find a suitable one for a while.

In He Tiantian’s family, being able to become friends with Huo Yingjie should mean that he has good character. Although he looks average, he has good abilities and should be a good person.

"Haha, OK, I'll ask for you in private." He Tiantian said. Since Huang Jingli brought it up, it was just something she said casually. If she asked, maybe it would work out.

He Tiantian found that she had the potential to be a matchmaker.

"Thank you very much, whether it works out or not, I'll thank you." Huang Jingli smiled. She was also open-minded about marriage.

Cui Ying just turned her back and calculated the faces of the two people. Haha, they were quite suitable, so she smiled and looked at Huang Jingli and said, "I think you can make it!"

"Haha, come on, I forgot that there is Cui Banxian around me." Huang Jingli said, "Help me calculate."

Cui Ying and Huang Jingli were close, so she knew that Cui Ying had a habit of pinching her fingers to calculate whenever she had something to do.

However, eight out of ten times can really be calculated accurately.

"I've calculated it." Cui Ying didn't like these things before, and she was only half-baked at the level of learning, so she couldn't say the details.

"Haha, if it really works, I'll give you a big gift." Huang Jingli smiled, joking at the time.

The three women were teasing the children while talking about what happened recently in school.

The three men were sorting meat and vegetables in the kitchen.

The pork ribs soup was stewing on the stove to make the soup base.

"Wu Youliang, you cut some cabbage leaves, potato slices, wash some vermicelli, radish slices, and rice cakes; Huashan, you come and help me cut the meat." Huo Yingjie arranged, giving Wu Youliang a small knife and Huashan a larger knife.

Wu Youliang did these things at home a lot, and he was familiar with them.

Huashan took the knife and asked, "How do you say to cut it?"

"Slice the beef and mutton into thin slices, and put them in the pot later." Huo Yingjie said, while he took an axe to chop chicken pieces.

"Okay, I'll slice it right away." Huashan said with a smile, holding the beef in one hand and the knife in the other. It seemed that he applied a little force, and a thin piece of beef appeared on the big plate, "Is it like this?"

Huo Yingjie saw the beef sliced ​​by Huashan, nodded, and said, "Yes, that's it."

Wu Youliang was surprised. He couldn't do it to this extent, and asked, "Brother Huashan, it seems that you have some skills in your hands?"

Huashan smiled and said modestly, "I learned some before."

After that, he began to concentrate on slicing meat. After a while, he filled two large plates.

Huo Yingjie chopped the whole chicken into small pieces and blanched it in the pot.

Grandma Wang didn't like to eat pot. She was old, and it was not easy to digest this, and it was easy to get angry, so He Tiantian served some white radish and pork ribs soup and made noodles for Grandma Wang to eat first.

After dinner, Grandma Wang took the children to the main room to play, and asked Huo Yingjie and He Tiantian to accompany the guests for dinner.

He Tiantian took out a copper hot pot from home, cleaned it, and put the burning charcoal in it. After a while, the base soup inside boiled, and everyone added what they liked.

There were also many seasonings prepared at home, including sesame paste, minced garlic, vinegar, sauce, sesame oil, etc.

Eating from a pot is always the most atmospheric, especially in winter, it is steaming hot, and it is hot from beginning to end.

Huo Yingjie took out a bottle of sorghum wine and drank with Huashan and Wu Youliang; He Tiantian took out the peach blossom wine that her mother Wang Shuping used to make at home and poured some for Huang Jingli and Cui Ying.

At the dinner table, they talked happily.

After dinner, they did not leave immediately, but speculated on the content of this year's exam together.

Everyone expressed their opinions, and various ideas collided, and they really guessed a few questions.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the four people got up and said goodbye.

Huo Yingjie and He Tiantian sent them to the alley door.

After returning home, He Tiantian immediately asked Huo Yingjie: "Where is Wu Youliang from? Does he have a girlfriend?"

"Wu Youliang is from a county town under the jurisdiction of Nanshi. I heard that his hometown is rich in salted duck eggs. I have eaten half of one and it tastes pretty good." Huo Yingjie said, "As for a girlfriend, it seems that he doesn't have one. Anyway, I haven't heard Wu Youliang say it."

"Oh, then ask clearly when you have time." He Tiantian whispered. She would be loyal to the person who entrusted her with the task, whether it succeeds or not, she would ask clearly.

Huo Yingjie noticed it and asked back: "You don't want to match your squad leader with Wu Youliang, do you?"

"Hehe." He Tiantian smiled, "I guess so."

"Why do you have such an idea?" Huo Yingjie asked. He didn't pay attention to these things before. Now think about it, when they were having dinner just now, Huang Jingli always talked to Wu Youliang for no reason.

He Tiantian raised her head slightly and said, "It's not my idea, but Huang Jingli asked me privately if Wu Youliang has a partner. If not, she wants to be with Wu Youliang."

"Haha, that's it." Huo Yingjie said. He always knew that Huang Jingli was purposeful in doing things. Fortunately, she had a bottom line. Even if she liked Wu Youliang, she had to ask clearly first. If Wu Youliang had a partner, Huang Jingli would definitely not continue and would find another target.

"Okay, I'll ask when the exam comes." Seeing that Huang Jingli has always been law-abiding and self-aware, Huo Yingjie is ready to ask for her.

"Then I'll leave it to you." He Tiantian smiled, tiptoed and kissed Huo Yingjie on the face.

Huo Yingjie was an unsatisfied man. His beloved wife threw herself into his arms, so he didn't let her go easily. He gave her a hot French kiss on the spot.

"Ahem!" Grandma Wang went to the kitchen to get a glass of water, and saw the couple kissing each other in the yard in the cold weather, not afraid of the cold!

To prevent them from catching a cold, Grandma Wang kindly coughed twice as a reminder.

The two people, who were infatuated with each other, quickly separated, looking at each other with embarrassment on their faces, and then laughed secretly together.

In the next few days, Huo Yingjie and He Tiantian reviewed seriously and went to school for the exam with full confidence.

They took the exam for three consecutive days and finished all the courses.
