Chapter 332: Different Joys and Sorrows

Han Li was checking the sedimentation of the beauty formula cream in the health room, and He Mi and the others came in.

"It's almost the New Year, why are you not idle?"

Han Li looked up and saw the four of them coming together, and he probably understood what was going on.

"I don't have to worry about anything with my virtuous wife at home, so I can only do something to pass the time."

Han Li's words made He Mi's eyes dim for a moment, but the Yun sisters were very happy.

Then He Mi talked about everyone's group vigil. Han Li thought that whether it was He Mi or Qi Xiaomei, the relationship between them and their family was indeed closer than that of others in the eyes of outsiders. This was an undeniable fact. The Yun sisters might have thought of this, so they did not refuse directly, but followed He Mi and the others to the health room to hand over the decision to themselves.

Han Li thought of this and glanced at the two sisters. They did not seem to object, so he agreed.

But how to do it specifically required them to discuss it, and Han Li was still a hands-off shopkeeper.

Then the four of them returned to the north room and began to discuss how to spend the next few days. Today, they would stew pork and tomorrow, they would kill chickens. This was decided in advance by the Yun sisters. Now they would add some things according to the situation of He Mi and Qi Zhaodi.

He Mi asked Qi Zhaodi to go home and get some white flour, venison, and canned food. She went to the villagers' house to exchange for two old hens, and let them cluck along the way.

When someone saw He Mi, she didn't hide anything. She told anyone who asked that they would celebrate the New Year with Han Li's family, and the two old hens were just part of their food.

The villagers didn't say anything about this. First of all, Han Li was already married. With his wife and sister-in-law around, there couldn't be any mess. Everyone knew that Han Li had saved He Mi from the wolf's mouth and helped the poor little Qi Zhaodi. It was normal for them to be closer to each other. Moreover, they were all young people away from home, and it was not uncommon for them to celebrate the New Year together when they missed home.

In the past few years, when the educated youths were still renting houses in the villagers' homes, they rarely stayed in the villagers' homes during the New Year's Day. Most of them would gather in the educated youth courtyard to celebrate the New Year with the educated youths.

However, the most impressive thing for the villagers was the first year when the educated youths came to their village to work in the fields. On New Year's Eve, many educated youths got drunk and showed their ugly faces. It was so noisy at that time, just like the old opera troupes on stage, one after another, which really made the villagers watch a very lively drama.

As for why no one in the village said anything now, well, those who know about it know it.

He Mi's fanfare not only let many villagers know, but even the educated youth in the village knew about it.

Zhang Xiangjun is now obsessed with the current world of woodworking and doesn't care about it at all. Zhang Yaozu made an appointment with the villagers who set up the trap together during the New Year's Day, and even decided whose house to go to for drinking every day, and he didn't care about it either.

Since the last ice fishing, Hao Hongmin and Yang Xiuying have been eating with Meng Zaihong almost all the time, and they even agreed to spend the New Year together. At this time, whether to leave Meng Zaihong or bring her along is not a good idea.

Wu Lili was a little restless after hearing this. She was a little unwilling to go to the Youth League to spend the New Year with Qi Ruying and Yuan Hongying, because she often chatted with them, so Wu Lili knew that if she asked them, she would have to stick something in there.

She was not sure about finding Hou Yuhua and Zhang Shulan, because Hou Yuhua went to Han Li's house almost every day, and Zhang Shulan stayed at home almost every day. They had little direct contact with each other, and she was not sure that she could make an appointment with these two people.

Should she find male educated youth to spend the New Year together? For their own face, they would be embarrassed to contribute less than a female comrade, right?

The male educated youth now only have Zhang Xiangjun, Zhang Yaozu, Yan Weimin and Xu Yongjian. First of all, the two Zhangs should be excluded.

Then the only ones left were Yan Weimin and Xu Yongjian, but it would be a bad influence for a woman like her to spend the New Year with two men with whom she had a mediocre relationship. If something unspeakable happened during this period, she would not even have a chance to resist.

Wu Lili was about to pull her hair out at this moment, and finally she could only comfort herself that she would go back to the city to work and marry a cadre in the future, and it was not worth it to have too much contact with these people with no future.

Among the educated youth who heard the news, Hou Yuhua was the most uncomfortable at the moment. No matter what she did now, she could not join, and she would not be willing not to join.

Hou Yuhua felt very powerless when she looked at her roommate who was immersed in her own world. It was really good that the two of them did not have to argue about ordinary things, but from her current situation, she could not expect the other party to take the initiative to express any opinions.

"Sister Shulan, what are we going to do during the Chinese New Year? We can't do it the same as usual, right?"

"Isn't this good? We won't have such a leisurely life after we start working."

"I'm talking about the food, couplets, firecrackers and other things during the Chinese New Year."

"As for the food, we can just get together and have two good meals to improve it. I don't want to go out, so why don't you go buy it with everyone and we can share the cost."

Hou Yuhua. Although she guessed that her roommate might say this, she still felt powerless when she heard it with her own ears.

"Sister Shulan, I want to see if my sister can take me with her during the Chinese New Year. If that's ok, would you like to go with me, but the share you need to share may be a little more."

After listening to this, Zhang Shulan thought of Han Li's outstanding height, handsome face, and amiable tone. She secretly touched the pillow behind her, and finally shook her head.

Han Li had no idea what was going on here. He was still concentrating on studying the immersed medicinal liquid.

There is a certain reason for thinking about the decline of these things in later generations. The first is the scarcity of good materials. It is quite troublesome, finicky and long to deal with. If you are not careful, the effect will be greatly reduced. Secondly, the side effects are the most terrible.

What Han Li is currently working on is not the most complicated recipe of 'Yu Yi Tang Shi Lu'. I won't talk about the function of the most complicated recipe for now, but it actually takes five years from the beginning to the finished product. Repeated processing, boiling, rejecting and filtering...

The steamed and sun-dried black sesame balls I saw in my previous life were simply weak compared to it. No, they were not even qualified to compare.

Yun Jingjing and the others not only stewed pork today, but also served steamed sticky bean bun noodles at He Mi's reminder.

Because the noodles of this sticky bean bun are different from the noodles of steamed buns, it is composed of yellow rice flour and corn flour. This fermentation process takes two to three days, and it must be taken out and kneaded every day to ensure the best fermentation. degree.

As for the filling of sticky bean buns, the only local filling is kidney beans, so most people can only choose this. Those who have the conditions will go shopping for some red adzuki beans to make fillings. Only in the early to mid-1990s, most local people will have more Red bean is the choice.

However, it is not easy at all to turn kidney beans into stuffing. First, they need to be soaked overnight, and the next day they have to be boiled in a pot. The kidney beans are crushed into puree, and the last step is to add sugar according to personal taste. The filling of this sticky bean bun is ready for use.

A few people were working while talking and laughing. It wasn't until the meal was ready that Yun Yingying came over to ask Han Li to eat.

Since He Mi and the others have officially joined the Han Li family's New Year dinner party, there will be five people on the Kang at home today, and this situation will remain until the first night of the Lunar New Year.

Yun Yingying was very happy about this, because Qi Zhaodi took away more than half of the work that originally belonged to her.

Yun Jingjing felt the same way. More people joined He Mi and others for dinner, but her workload decreased.

As for supplies, He Mi brought a lot of things without any idea of ​​taking advantage of them.

After dinner, the four of them got together to play cards and discuss tomorrow's affairs.

Han Li took Gouzi and Lynx outside for a walk, and when he came back, only the Yun sisters were left at home.

"Did the card game end early enough today?"

Yun Yingying helped Han Li take off his coat and said, "Hou Yuhua came to look for Qi Xiaomei not long after we played. Without one person, the game will naturally break up."

"Hou Yuhua?"

"Yes, she was stumbling and secretive when she spoke today, but we guessed that she was talking to Qi Xiaomei about the New Year. After all, they are still sisters in name."

.

The next day, the twenty-seventh day of the twelfth lunar month, Han Li was still woken up early by his body's biological clock, and then he got up and started practicing his daily boxing routine.

It didn't take long for He Mi and Qi Zhaodi to come over. After eating, Han Li still came to the clinic to work.

As for Hou Yuhua's affairs, Han Li didn't inquire. If Qi Zhaodi wanted to say something, she would naturally say it.

The four of them started to clean up the mess and boil water and scald the chickens as planned.

But today, Hao Hongmin, Yang Xiuying and Meng Zaihong came here early. They didn't go to Han Li but went directly to the Yun sisters. Yang Xiuying's words were always one step ahead, and the voice came over before she could stand firm.

"Don't stay at home. Let's go shopping at the commune today. Yesterday, I saw many sisters-in-law in the village buying red paper and saying they wanted to put up lanterns. We all have new houses, so we have to make them. Hang it up, and buy firecrackers and so on. I heard that the supply and marketing cooperative in the commune will be closed tomorrow. If you don't buy it today, you will have to wait until next year. "

"Paste a lantern? If there is no bamboo here, what can we use to make the frame?"

"Willow branches, many people have prepared these. We can just borrow some when the time comes."

"Who is going?"

"Of course, the more people, the better. We are the first to inform you."

Yun Yingying and the others were also very moved after hearing this. They looked at each other and could see each other's thoughts. It didn't matter what lanterns were. It was always a happy thing to be able to go out and have fun. Besides, the commune only had ten people. Doli people don't have to suffer too much.

"I'll go talk to Brother Li."

"Then hurry up and I'll ask the others if they want to go."

After Yang Xiuying heard Yun Yingying's promise, she left Hao Hongmin and the others where they were and went to find others.

Yun Yingying came to the health room to talk about the matter, and Han Li took her hand and said.

"Do you want me to go with you?"

"No need, there are so many of us, and besides, the commune is not that far away."

"Then you should wear thicker clothes so you don't get cold."

When Han Li sent them to the door, he found that all the educated youth were there, and there were more than a dozen women from the village. It was like they were going to a war.

Han Li watched them leave with laughter and chatter, then turned back to the clinic to light the fire, made himself a cup of tea, and leaned back on the chair in a lazy manner, taking out a medical book and reading it.

At this time, Wang Chunhua had just cleaned herself up at home, and she was thinking about who to ask to help call Han Li.
