Chapter Thirteen Home Visits

Lou Jingping's home visit work was significantly longer than others. Before getting to the main topic, Chen Wei and Hu Zhengjun had a talk with Grandma Lou for a long time.

The old man likes to tell people about the past, and Chen Wei and the others are happy to listen to it, but this lecture can't be finished in a short while.

Today, most of the labor force on the team went to work together to dig rice piles. Most of the children came to the Lou family to watch the fun. They saw that it was not interesting, so they played in the Lou family yard for a while, and then went to another place.

Lou Yanni didn't know how long the home visit was when they arrived yesterday, and she thought these greetings were normal. After listening for a while, she called Lou Yanqiu to go to the field to collect vegetables. There was too much life at home and we couldn't delay our efforts.

"..." Chen Wei, the main leader, left, and I don't know if Lou Yanni could finish the work when Han Lin came.

The two of them had been chatting for almost half an hour. Seeing that they had nothing to say, Chen Wei opened the book and signaled Hu Zhengjun to start the home visit process.

The questions were still the same. Lou Jingping was quite nervous at the beginning. After chatting for so long, he became very peaceful and peaceful. He asked and answered whatever he asked and acted very generously.

There are not many problems with home visits, and Lou Jingping is not nervous and stuttering. He has only been in ten or twenty minutes and will be finished soon.

Before leaving in the morning, Han Lin was going to have a meeting temporarily. Hu Zhengjun, who was going back to work in the unit, refused him again. Chen Wei specially arranged the Lou family to visit the last one in the morning to delay time for Han Lin.

"Cough." Chen Wei and Hu Zhengjun looked at each other and coughed twice. It was really impossible to delay time. Chen Wei closed the book, "Old man, the home visit is over here. You can stay and we will leave first."

The two of them were already trying their best to delay time. They agreed to come back at 11 o'clock. Now it's almost twelve o'clock and there is no one seeing them.

"It's time to eat." Grandma Lou looked up at the sky, and suddenly shouted at the inner room, "Junlin, go to the vegetable field to call your two sisters back, it's time to cook, comrades in the People's Liberation Army, let's get some together at home."

When they heard that they wanted to keep food, Chen Wei and Hu Zhengjun didn't care about delaying the time and quickly stood up and refused. Now the conditions of each family are not good, and the conditions of the Lou family are obviously worse than that of the family. How could the two of them have the nerve to stay for dinner?

Grandma Lou looked very stern, "Sit down, sit down, sit down, and didn't prepare anything specifically. I know you have your rules, but I still have to eat this meal."

"Old man, this is not possible, the organization regulations..."

"Okay, okay, what do you want to promote to me, just plain food, and you can eat whatever you eat at home." Grandma Lou waved her hand, "I know your rules, don't take the masses one needle and one thread. It's okay, the People's Liberation Army is poor, you can just make a piece of paper."

Grandma Lou still remembers the fact that the People's Liberation Army came to get food to make white sticks, but the People's Liberation Army is trustworthy and those Baitiao people's communes have paid back the money.

"Or, stay and eat." Chen Wei and Hu Zhengjun looked at each other.

Chen Wei made the idea first, and they did not have a rigid rule that they would not be able to eat at the interviewee's house. Just leave money and food coupons after eating. "Old man, it's all old calendars to write white slips, so we give money coupons."

Seeing them staying, Grandma Lou smiled and didn't listen carefully to Chen Wei's words. She quickly pushed Lou Jingping, "Didn't you dig eels yesterday? Hurry up and let your sister add some vegetables at noon."

In order to facilitate watering, the Lou family's private land is located next to a large ditch in the village. The small land is cleaned up cleanly. There are loofah shelves beside the ditch, and the old loofahs left in the plant grow long and large.

Lou Yanni and Lou Yanqiu's task today is to take back the old autumn vegetables, dry them or make pickled vegetables.

When Lou Junlin found him, the two sisters were carrying a basket full of vegetables and were about to go home. The other basket left was to be called to Lou Jingping to get it back.

When they heard that they were going to have dinner at home, Lou Yanni quickly went back to the field to pick fresh lentils, picked two handfuls of peppers and a few fresh eggplants. Unfortunately, it is not time to kill pigs, and the production team's agency sales center can't buy meat.

"Sister, brother made a lot of eels yesterday, with meat." Lou Junlin grinned and carried two baskets of vegetables alone.

When Han Lin arrived at Loujiawan, the steaming food had just been served.

Seeing Han Lin, Lou Yanni was a little confused. Although she had cooked more rice than usual, it would definitely not be enough to have another one.

Moreover, although the dishes on the table looked rich, except for a dish of eel, there was no extra meat and vegetables. There was still a piece of moldy bacon that had been stored for a long time at home. But it was fine if the meat was processed and eaten by myself, it was not easy to take it out to entertain guests.

But it is important to cook the rice again first.

The big pot is made of rice, and then cooking can only be stewed in a clay pot. Braised rice is much more fragrant than picking rice. The Lou family usually spends this luxury during the Chinese New Year. Fortunately, there are not many times like this. Thinking that Grandma Lou hadn't eaten braised rice for a long time, Lou Yanni gritted her teeth and added another handful of rice.

When I had rice, the dishes were still a problem. Lou Yanni thought about it and put a few sour lettuce heads soaked in the jar two days ago and the cucumbers soaked in the morning, and cut them out and put them on the plate. It could barely be considered a dish. I knew that the crucian carp that Qiuguo gave her yesterday should have been kept for today.

"Sister, didn't you pickle two salted fish last time? Are there any?" Lou Yanqiu also became anxious and suddenly his eyes lit up and he looked at Lou Yanni.

Yes, the hush money given by Zuo Weiguo last time is still there!

After Lou Jingping came back, he saved one of the two fish and had a whole fish, which was just right to use.

After finally adding a dish to the last one, Lou Yanni invited Lou Jingping and Lou Junlin to the stove to bring the rice out. Han Lin and the others were not just waiting for the meal. The three of them lined up to go to the stove to get their own meals.

Loujiawan is full of wet foods and customers eat dry foods. When Lou Yanni made rice soup for Grandma Lou and Lou Jingping, she brought some rice soup for Han Lin and the other three to make it full of dry food.

There is no custom of girls not going to the table in the Lou family, but the Eight Immortals table at home is small, and three soldiers are sitting down. In addition, Grandma Lou and Lou Jingping can no longer squeeze out, and it is rude to stand by the bed.

Lou Yanni took her twins to eat in the stove. Grandma Lou had already explained to Han Lin and the others that the rice for the three of them was served first, saying that most of the rice was rice soup and was warmed on the stove.

The Lou family’s stove house is a low mud house. Han Lin had to bow his head slightly when he went in. Fortunately, the stove house was not small, so it was not too crowded for them to go in.

The stove was clean and there was a small square table against the wall, with a few dishes on it. It was probably because Lou Yanni wanted to take her younger brother and sister to eat here. Seeing that some eels were also left here, Han Lin didn't say much.
