Chapter 598 Sudden High Speed
In the blink of an eye, it was February 2th.
There is a call outside to not take holidays during the New Year and to seize the time to start production.
Although the wasteland is far away from the center of the storm, people don't dare to openly set off firecrackers and burn scriptures to pray for the New Year as they did before!
Just keep everything simple, put up window decorations and Spring Festival couplets, and have a reunion dinner as a gesture.
This year, no one held any ceremony for the Laba Festival. They just made some sugar melons and secretly paid tribute to the Kitchen God.
Then they would tell others that the kids were greedy and made some malt sugar, and they didn't even call it sugar melon.
It is also to avoid celebrating the New Year's Eve tomorrow, the 9th, so every household chooses to paste window flowers and couplets on the 8th.
They didn’t tell others that it was the New Year, but just said it was a celebration in the middle of winter, to attract some attention and drive away the wild beasts!
In fact, they are all family here. They say this to each other to form a kind of muscle memory, for fear that they will let the cat out of the bag in front of outsiders.
This way of thinking is similar to the confidentiality training in the military, where in order to complete special tasks, one must remember some false information to cover up the real information.
Force your brain cells to accept this false information and form muscle memory.
Using this method to numb themselves may seem a bit of an overreaction, but what if?
What if there really comes a day when we are investigated?
They are family members of soldiers and they cannot hold the men in their family back!
That day, Ye Shu and Zhuang Jingjing were both at Mrs. Jin's house, cutting paper-cuts together.
Mrs. Jin often has some fresh ideas for window paper-cuts, and can even cut out the corresponding zodiac animal according to the year's zodiac sign.
After a while, a vivid and adorable paper-cut sheep was born under Mrs. Jin's scissors.
Guaiguai was amazed and clapped his hands repeatedly: "Aunt Jin is great!"
Mrs. Jin teased her with a smile: "Ask your mother to cut one for you too!"
She was just teasing him casually, but she didn't expect the good kid to refuse seriously: "No! I can't let my mother get tired. My mother needs surgery on her hand!"
Just at this moment, Zheng Lan opened the curtain and came in. Upon hearing what she said, she couldn't help but praise her: "Oh, whose girl is this who can talk so well!"
The second and third children immediately responded: "My family!"
This caused all the adults in the room to burst into laughter.
Zheng Lan smiled and nodded at Ye Shu: "Only your family can raise such a mischievous child!"
There was a hint of envy and admiration in their voices. Although they also thought their own children were very good, they had to admit that the third child was really better!
How old are you?
This language and adaptability are really excellent!
Seeing the three little ones were so proud of themselves that their tails were raised, Ye Shu quickly changed the subject and asked Zheng Lan, "How is the little girl now?"
Because the topic was a bit serious, the children were sent out.
It’s not snowing or windy outside today, so it’s not cold to go out and play.
When the children heard this, they cheered and quickly put on their cotton-padded jackets, hats, scarves and gloves and rushed out!
"Heavy snow! We're coming!"
The adults naturally gave more safety reminders.
Back to the little girl that Ye Shu just mentioned, Mrs. Jin and Zhuang Jingjing were also very concerned.
Zheng Lan: "Zhao Lijuan is now being taken care of at home. She has enough milk, and her son can't finish it all. Besides, there is an older girl at home who can help take care of her."
Speaking of this poor little girl, everyone felt very sad.
After that, it was inevitable to talk about some customs of the eighteen villages near the current wasteland.
Mrs. Jin couldn't help but sigh: "The women here, can you say they are lucky? They are lucky, can you say they are unlucky? They are also very unlucky! Alas!"
Zheng Lan couldn't understand, and frowned and asked, "Where are they lucky?"
She had learned from her family's old man, Lin, that after the spring, the task of educating the villagers in the surrounding 18 villages might fall on the camp.
The minds of the women and children in these villages are waiting for them to be liberated, so in the past two days she has begun to think about how to give classes and do ideological work for the female comrades.
Mrs. Jin said this because she was really curious and wanted to ask clearly so that she could get to know them more deeply.
The so-called knowing yourself and your enemy means you will be victorious in every battle.
Doing ideological work for them is actually no less than fighting a war.
Ye Shu and Zhuang Jingjing both knew Mrs. Jin quite well, and when they saw her eyes and expression, they had a subtle premonition.
The two couldn't help but look at each other.
Then, as expected, Mrs. Jin blinked and said, "The lucky part is obvious. Let me ask you, is it better to have one man in the family, or several men?"
Zheng Lan didn't understand what she said at first, but when she saw her smiling and making faces, she suddenly felt relieved and understood.
He immediately laughed awkwardly: "I'm dying! Why are you..."
Mrs. Jin also laughed, but she became more confident and said, "Hey, hey, hey, I didn't say anything else! Just listen to me and tell you in detail!"
"First of all, if there are more men in the family, there will be more labor force!"
"One woman can work outside to earn work points, while the other can raise chickens and sheep at home. One can also do housework, one can take care of the children, and one can take care of the elderly and sick at home. Then the woman in the family doesn't have to do anything. Isn't it very happy?"
She forcibly dragged several people from the train bound for the Loess Plateau to the train bound for the kindergarten. When I thought about it along her lines, it seemed to make sense!
However, Jin's wife's car suddenly turned a corner: "She has so many men in her family. She can choose one today, choose another one by name, and change them every day. Wouldn't that be very 'happy'?"
Everyone was caught off guard and driven on the highway. Ye Shu and Zhuang Jingjing were already familiar with her and knew that she could speak without restraint sometimes.
There has never been a speed limit for driving between married women due to the limitations of the times.
But Zheng Lan was genuinely shocked by the speed and couldn't help but reach out and scratch her: "Oh my god, I'm going to die. Jin Yun didn't expect you to have such an idea!"
Sister Jin was tickled so hard that she begged for mercy, dodging left and right with a smile, but she kept saying, "Don't be impatient, I didn't say that, it's the truth!"
"Let's consider this phenomenon realistically and realistically. Isn't that what I'm talking about?"
Zheng Lan calmed down and thought about it carefully. She felt that although Mrs. Jin's words were a bit explicit, they were correct.
Just at this moment, Huo Yisheng arrived.
Ye Shu cleared his throat twice and quickly changed the subject: "Let's cut the red paper for the couplets! Are we still going to let Mr. Huang write them this year?"
Zheng Lan suddenly pointed at Huo Yisheng and retorted to Jin's wife, "You're not right. If the man at home was like Captain Huo, one would definitely be enough! Isn't that right, Comrade Ye Shu?"
