Era: My backyard is the garbage dump of the universe

Chapter 197: Little Glutinous Rice
"This girl." Liu Hualei in the main room couldn't help but laugh and shook his head when he heard this.

Zhou Meiling also laughed out loud. She knew that since Xiao Nuomi had come, her eldest daughter Liu Chunhua must have come as well. So after saying goodbye to Wang Qing, she went out to greet her.

But the two brothers Liu Qingshi and Liu Qinglong were so scared that they hid themselves.

After all, they don’t have any money to give Xiao Nuomi a red envelope.

Liu Qingsong, who had just walked out of the kitchen, shook his head when he saw this scene. When he saw Xiao Nuomi running towards him with her short legs, he quickly took out the red envelope he had prepared and handed it over: "Happy New Year, Xiao Nuomi!"

"Hehe... Uncle, you are happy too." Little Nuomi took the red envelope and smiled happily with her big eyes turned into crescents: "Where is my aunt? Why don't I see her?"

"In the kitchen!" Liu Qingsong replied.

"Oh!" Little Nuomi ran to the kitchen.

After a while, he ran out with his youngest sister and went to play and fight at the gate.

Liu Qingsong did not interfere, but brought the prepared meal to the eight-immortal table with his eldest and second sisters.

Wang Qing saw that Liu Hualei and Zhou Meiling were very satisfied with him and did not make things difficult for him. After thinking for a while, he quickly took out the red envelope he had prepared long ago and walked towards Yaomei and Xiao Nuomi: "Hongxia, come! Come! Uncle will give you a red envelope."

"Thank you, uncle." The youngest sister quickly took it happily.

Little Nuomi was so happy after receiving the red envelope.

After Wang Qing left, he opened the red envelope to check how much money was in it.

Seeing that there were ten five-cent notes, which were 'more' than what Liu Qingsong had given, Lian put them away and ran towards Liu Chunhua with his short legs: "Mom, uncle just gave me a big red envelope, bigger than my uncle's. Hurry up and put it away, and save it to buy me meat buns."

"Cough cough..." Liu Chunhua coughed repeatedly when she heard this.

After all, Liu Qingsong and Wang Qing were both in the main room!
This is too disgusting compared to the size of the red envelope.

But Xiao Nuomi had no idea what Liu Chunhua was thinking. He tilted his head and asked in a baby voice, "Mom, are you feeling uncomfortable?"

"No, no." Liu Chunhua replied.

"If you don't have any, then quickly put the red envelope away. Uncle's red envelope is so big." Little Nuomi repeated it seriously, and then took out all ten five-cent notes in the red envelope: "If you don't believe me, look, there are so many, and uncle only gave me one."

There was a pop.

Liu Lijuan couldn't help but laugh out loud when she heard that.

Liu Qingsong also had a faint smile on his face.

But Liu Chunhua was embarrassed: "Girl, whether the red envelope is big or not is not determined by the number of pieces, but by...look..."

Speaking of which.

Liu Chunhua really couldn't go on.

After all, Wang Qing was still there.

But Wang Qing didn't mind at all.

Instead, I thought Xiao Nuomi was so interesting: "Big sister, children speak without restraint, just say whatever you want to say! I only gave Xiao Nuomi a 50-cent red envelope, this is the truth, there is nothing wrong with you saying it."

"That's right, sister, you should teach Xiao Nuomi to recognize money, otherwise he will suffer a great loss in the future." Liu Lijuan followed with a sentence.

"Okay! Okay!" Seeing Wang Qing being so reasonable, Liu Chunhua heaved a sigh of relief and squatted down to say to Xiao Nuomi, "Silly girl, listen carefully. The red envelope your uncle gave you before was five yuan, which is much bigger than these five cents."

“Really?” Little Nuomi scratched his head with a suspicious look on his face: “But…but uncle gave me so many tickets! Mommy, please don’t lie to me and take uncle’s money back.”

"That's how you used to do it."

"I won't be fooled by you."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present burst into laughter.

Even Liu Chunhua couldn't help laughing.

I saw that I couldn’t explain it to Xiao Nuomi.

She was too lazy to explain at the moment.

Instead, he picked up Xiao Nuomi and sat at the eight-immortal table, eating with his parents, Wang Qing, Liu Qingsong and other family members.

……

Eat and drink enough.

Rested for a while.

Wang Kuiwu and Liu Chunhua suggested playing cards to kill time.

But no money was transferred.

Upon hearing this, Wang Qing was about to pull Liu Qingsong to the table.

Outside, a naughty voice came: "Brother, brother...are you home?"

"Here! Here!" Liu Qingsong was stunned and walked towards the gate with firecrackers in his hand.

When he arrived, he saw Tao Guoqing standing next to the little rascal with a smile on his face. He was stunned for a moment: "Grandpa Tao, you...you are not..."

"Hahahaha...thanks to you, I'm alive again." Tao Guoqing laughed at Liu Qingsong's appearance.

"Ah?" Liu Qingsong was a little confused.

It seems like he didn't do anything to Tao Guoqing?

"Really? It was the jade pendant you gave to Little Naughty that saved me." Tao Guoqing put away his smile and said, "But the jade pendant disappeared for some reason. I came here today to express my gratitude. You must accept the gift I brought."

talking.

Tao Guoqing waved to Tao Yu who was standing next to the jeep.

Tao Yu said hello to Liu Qingsong.

He and Bai Yuzhen in the car brought all the gifts to the door.

These gifts included high-end cigarettes and alcohol, fruit snacks, and a brand new Shanghai brand watch.

After seeing it clearly, Liu Qingsong said, "Grandpa Tao, I didn't realize what happened! You gave me so many gifts, I feel ashamed to accept them!"

"How about this! I'll take the cigarettes and alcohol, and I'll take the fruit and snacks as well, but you should take this watch back! Otherwise..."

The words are not finished yet.

Bai Yuzhen interrupted him: "This is not a good watch. Just take it if I give it to you. Do you want to be polite to me?"

Done.

Without waiting for Liu Qingsong to speak.

Bai Yuzhen forced the watch onto Liu Qingsong's hand.

Liu Qingsong had no choice but to accept the generous gift with a wry smile: "Okay! Okay! I'll accept the watch, but you can't just stand at my doorstep and not come in, right?"

"Let's go! Let's go to my house and sit down."

"I will cook and fry the fish for you personally."

"Great! Great!" The little rascal cheered and ran into the gate.

"This girl." Tao Guoqing followed behind with a smile.

Tao Yu and Bai Yuzhen had no choice but to walk with Liu Qingsong as they walked into the main hall, talking and laughing.

……

In the end, Tao Yu and Bai Yuzhen left without eating.

After all, today is the second day of the Chinese New Year and they have a lot of things to do.

But Tao Guoqing and Xiao Taoqi stayed and played cards with Wang Qing and Wang Kuiwu.

Seeing this, Liu Qingsong went to the backyard and brought back peeled honey pomelo and navel oranges, and placed them on the eight-immortals table next to them for them to eat.

As for the magic fruit, Liu Qingsong did not bring it out.

It’s not that I’m stingy, but the Magic Fruit is too precious. It may be of great use in the future, so it’s better to keep it for now.

Seeing that he was not needed in the main room for the time being, he said goodbye to his second and eldest sisters and went to the backyard to busy himself.

At around 3:30 in the afternoon, Liu Qingsong was planning to go to the Wanjie garbage dump when his parents came over.

Liu Hualei said, "Qingsong! Your mother and I are planning to visit your grandmother. I'd like you to take care of the guests at home."

"Especially Wang Qing. It's his first time here. Don't ignore him." Zhou Meiling said, "We'll go see grandma and then we'll be back."

"Okay! Okay!" Liu Qingsong agreed with a smile.

Originally, he wanted to go with them to visit his grandmother, but with so many guests at home, he had no choice but to stay at home and accompany the guests.

"Then let's go." Liu Hualei pushed the 28-meter pole and walked towards the mountain path.

Seeing that his parents only brought two cans of food and two pounds of pork, Liu Qingsong quickly ran into the main room and brought back two pairs of cigarettes and alcohol and handed them to Zhou Meiling: "Mom, take these to grandma and second uncle. You and dad will be away from home by then, and you don't know when you can come back!"

"But...but these are given to you by Mr. Tao!" Zhou Meiling reminded.

"Isn't mine yours?" Liu Qingsong asked with a smile.

"That's true." Zhou Meiling nodded with satisfaction. After taking the cigarettes and alcohol, she happily caught up with Liu Hualei, then sat on the 28-meter bicycle and walked away talking and laughing.

Liu Qingsong watched his parents disappear.

Seeing the little eagle hovering in the sky, he chased after it and then turned and walked towards the main room.

……

My parents came back at 5:30 in the afternoon.

And I didn’t eat at my grandmother’s or my second uncle’s house.

When Liu Qingsong asked the reason, he found out that his grandmother was sick because she was angry about his elder and younger uncles being arrested, and she is now in the hospital!
My second uncle and aunt are taking care of my grandmother in the health center.

This naturally means there is no time to cook and entertain parents.

Liu Qingsong didn't say much after knowing the reason.

After all, if the elder uncle and the younger uncle are not arrested.

I'm afraid that my grandma, my second uncle, and my second aunt will have a harder time this year. In other words, it's better to suffer a short pain than a long one. As long as grandma can get through this period, there will be many good days in the future!
Seeing Wang Qing was about to leave with his second sister’s farewell.

Liu Qingsong ran over before he could come to his senses: "Brother Wang, when will the black market open this year?"

"It should be the sixth day." Wang Qing replied with a smile.

"Then I'll come to see you on the sixth day of the New Year." Liu Qingsong said.

"What are you going to do?" Liu Lijuan looked at Liu Qingsong in confusion.

"Keep it secret for now." Liu Qingsong smiled mysteriously: "You will know when the time comes."

This year is 1979, the year of reform and opening up.

If he was still hiding in the Huaishu Production Team.

Then his rebirth would have been in vain.

"I won't tell you." Liu Lijuan rolled her eyes at Liu Qingsong, then whispered to Wang Qing, "My parents may leave after the meeting on the fifth or sixth day of the New Year. When you have time, remember to come to my house for dinner and settle things between us."

"Yes, I will." Wang Qinglian nodded.

After saying something to Liu Qingsong, he turned around and left on his 28-meter bicycle.

……

Because the family was sitting in the backyard, roasting fire, chatting and playing cards.

Liu Qingsong cleaned up the kitchen.

So I went to bed early.

The next day, I got up, washed, and ate something. Then I took the gifts and went to my uncle's house with my youngest sister, Little Nuomi, and Little Taoqi to pay New Year's greetings.

As for the third uncle's family, they sent the fourth and fifth sons as representatives.

My parents didn't go with me.

There is no other way, the house must be empty during the New Year.

Someone must be kept at home, otherwise if the news gets out, people will definitely gossip about it.

However, what Liu Qingsong did not expect was that before he and Xiao Nuomi, Yaomei and Xiao Taoqi reached their uncle's house, they were blocked by a big rooster from a distance.

This big rooster has a red crown and a golden body, and is more than twice as big as an ordinary rooster.

It saw little Nuomi jumping towards it on its short legs, and it flapped its wings and flew up to peck it.

Although he didn't peck it, Liu Qingsong was still shocked.

Even the little rascal was frightened and his face turned pale.

After all, she had never seen a big rooster bullying anyone in her life.

But Little Nuomi was not afraid at all. Instead, he angrily reached out and grabbed the rooster, then dragged it towards the gate of Liu Huagen's house: "Grandpa, Grandpa... Come out quickly, your rooster is bullying our nest!"

"Really?" Liu Huagen hurriedly ran out from the gate.

Behind him were Liu Qingxu, Liu Qingshui, Fatty Huang and several others.

When they saw the big rooster dragging in little Nuomi's hands, they couldn't help laughing.

Among them, Fatty Huang laughed the most happily: "Little Nuomi, why does it look like you are bullying the big rooster?"

"Yes, you are quite capable, little girl!" Liu Qingxu said jokingly.

"I didn't bully the big rooster, it was the big rooster that bullied me!" Little Nuomi stomped her feet in anger when she heard that.

"Yes." Liu Qingsong confirmed: "If Xiao Nuomi hadn't dodged quickly just now, the big rooster would have almost pecked Xiao Nuomi's eyes."

"I...I was really scared." The little rascal agreed.

"Uncle, your big rooster really pecks people." The youngest sister also said seriously.

"Really?" Liu Huagen frowned when he heard that. After hesitating for a moment, he said to Liu Qingshui beside him, "Why are you still looking at it? Keeping such a big rooster will harm people! Kill it quickly and make amends to my little Nuomi and little Taoqi."

"Okay! Okay!" Liu Qingshui quickly took the big rooster from Xiao Nuomi's hands.

"No...it's not right to kill a chicken during the New Year, right?" Liu Qingsong was stunned and stopped Liu Qingshui.

"It's okay, my family doesn't believe in this. When Debin came yesterday, I also killed an old hen." Liu Huagen said with a smile.

"Oh!" Liu Qingsong nodded.

If you don't believe it, then there are really no taboos.

"Oh~! Oh~! There's meat!" When Little Nuomi saw Liu Qingshui really taking a knife to slaughter the big rooster, he couldn't help but cheered.

Little Naughty and Little Sister were also smiling happily.

Liu Qingsong was at a loss whether to laugh or cry when watching this scene.

But he didn't bother to pay more attention to it. Instead, he followed Fatty Huang's lead and walked towards the main room.

……

Inside the hall.

There are other relatives here who are paying New Year's greetings.

But most of them are members of the Liu family, and Liu Qingsong also knows them.

So after exchanging a few pleasantries, Liu Qingsong casually sat down, warmed himself by the fire, and chatted with everyone.

As they were chatting, Fatty Huang suddenly asked Liu Qingsong in a low voice: "Qingsong, you have such a good relationship with Director Tao, do you know what's going on with the reconstruction of the Yibin Winery where I work?"

"What else can it be? It's a good thing!" Liu Qingsong replied with a smile.

In 1979, Yibin Distillery fired the first shot of reform in Dayu City. This reconstruction is only the first step, and foreign investment will be introduced in the future to repackage the liquor produced by the company.

If I remember correctly.

In just three years, the Yibin Winery became a star enterprise in Dayu City. As for the Qinan Fertilizer Factory, it went against its leadership and eventually closed down.

However, the bankruptcy only happened in 1987.

It's still early.

The thought fell.

Fatty Huang said excitedly, "Since the reconstruction of the Yibin Winery is a good thing, then you say I can't take over the outsourced canteen?"

"Do you have any connections in this area?" Liu Qingsong asked.

"Yes, and the contracting price is very cheap, but I have never contracted a canteen, so I wanted to ask you. After all, you have a good relationship with Director Tao and Secretary Chen, and you know a lot of inside information." Fatty Huang rubbed his hands and said with a smile.

Liu Qingsong shook his head when he heard this: "What you said is wrong. Secretary Chen and Director Tao don't care about Yibin Winery. It's useless even if their relationship is good."

“But I can tell you that this outsourced canteen can be contracted and can make a lot of money.”

"Really?" Fatty Huang was extremely happy.

"Really." Liu Qingsong replied.

"Will you invest?" asked Fatty Huang.

"The question is, do I have the qualifications?" Liu Qingsong asked with a smile.

"Of course there is. I'm telling you the truth! There is no problem between Nie Xiaojun and I regarding contracting the canteen, but we have no backing in the relevant departments! So Nie Xiaojun discussed it with me and plans to ask you to invest." Fatty Huang replied seriously.

In other words.

Liu Qingsong has connections.

He and Nie Xiaojun have the resources to contract the canteen.

As long as this is used well, it will be beneficial everywhere.

Liu Qingsong hesitated after understanding the meaning of Liu Qingsong's words.

It’s not that I don’t want to make money, but it’s not easy to do business in partnership.

Especially someone like Fatty Huang who is addicted to gambling.

If his gambling addiction strikes, he will definitely be the one who gets cheated in the end.

Fatty Huang saw Liu Qingsong's worry and said, "Qingsong, I've given all my money to your cousin now. I've officially quit gambling, so please trust me."

"If you do this, I don't want you to invest money."

"When I encounter difficulties with relevant departments, you just need to come forward and say something good to Secretary Chen and Director Tao. If you can't help, I won't blame you."

"After all, some things are beyond the ability of Director Tao and Secretary Chen to handle."

"Well... okay then!" Liu Qingsong thought for a moment and agreed.

There is no other way. Even if I don’t give face to Fatty Huang, I still have to give face to my uncle and cousin.

Of course, if Fatty Huang really didn't gamble, he would still be a pretty impressive guy.

This is just a verbal promise without paying any money, so there is no loss, so just agree to it first.

"Haha... then we have a deal." Fatty Huang was so happy to see Liu Qingsong agreed. He was about to talk to Liu Qingsong in detail about the outsourcing of the canteen at Yibin Winery when the youngest sister came running over with her short legs: "Third brother, go check on the little rascal. She...she suddenly became abnormal and vomited out everything she had eaten this morning!"

"Really?" Liu Qingsong hurriedly took his youngest sister out of the main room.

When he saw the pale little rascal vomiting under the grapefruit tree at the door, he ran over quickly and asked, "Did you eat something you shouldn't have just eaten?"

"No, I just ate a piece of sugar cube that Fatty gave me." Little Taoqi looked at Liu Qingsong uncomfortably, and then vomited again.
