Chapter 010 The ideal at the end of the century ()
The spicy fish made by Lin Zhenhua won a lot of applause. This dish was studied hard in order to soak his girlfriend during his postgraduate study, and the effect was naturally extraordinary. According to Lin Zhenhua's own evaluation, this basin of boiled fish only reached less than one-third of the level he made before traveling through time, because it lacked various seasonings, especially cooking oil. If Lin Fanghua had not snatched the oil bottle in time, Lin Zhenhua would have almost poured the oil supplied by the whole family in a month into the pot.
"Xiaohua, you have really been reborn when you arrived in the army. It turned out that you only know how to eat, so how could you cook? I didn't expect that you could make such delicious dishes now. Chef Liu in the small cafeteria is not as good as you." Ju Hongyang said unsatisfiedly as he gnawed the last piece of fish bone.
"Actually, I can make this dish too," Lin Zhenhua said modestly, "When the self-defense counterattack, our troops stayed in Yunnan for half a year, and I learned it there."
"This fish is really good." Zhao Yongqun said, "and this Wuliangye wine is much better than the sorghum wine produced in our county."
Chu Hongyang gave Zhao Yongqun a blank look: "What do you know? This wine costs more than three yuan per bottle. My father has been in the supply and marketing department for so many years and hasn't drunk it a few times."
"More than three dollars?" Peng Shaozhe smacked his tongue, "Xiaohua, are you rich?"
"Haha, my friend gave it to me." Lin Zhenhua said, "On the way back, I saved a cadre from Xiangping Province, which he gave it to me."
"When will it be our turn for such a good thing?" Zhao Yongqun said, "I'm too full and I have to go back to bed. Let's go all out and let Xiaohua go to bed early."
Several bad friends said goodbye with burps and left, with a few boxes of red Shuangxi cigarettes that Lin Zhenhua gave them in their pockets. They were all good friends who skipped classes and fought with Lin Zhenhua back then. They shared the blessings and difficulties. Lin Zhenhua had good cigarettes and wine, but they would not be polite.
"Brother, the fish you made is really delicious. I haven't eaten enough yet. Will we eat it once a month in the future?" Seeing Zhu Hongyang and others leave, Lin Fanghua cleaned up the dishes and told Lin Zhenhua about her lofty ideals. She just now had no intention of eating more because there were so many people present. Now she looked at the empty vegetable bowl and was very nostalgic. She also blamed Lin Zhenhua's bad friends for being too good to eat, and even drank all the spicy oil in the bowl.
Lin Zhenhua reached out and rubbed Lin Fanghua's head, and smiled and said, "You want to eat it, just buy another fish tomorrow. I'll make it for you, and you'll have enough food for you."
Lin Fanghua has now begun to adapt to her brother's intimate actions. The brother and sister have not been intimate like this for many years. This feeling made Lin Fanghua feel warm in her heart. However, she did not agree with her brother's proposal: "How can you eat good things every day? This fish costs more than one yuan, not to mention that you have used so much oil."
Lin Zhenhua said: "Xiaofang, now I'm back, our lives will get better and better. I promise you that in less than a year, I will definitely let you eat such fish every day until you get tired of it."
"You're talking in your sleep," said Lin Fanghua. "We wrote essays in school and one day in 2000. We didn't dare to say that we ate such fish every day."
"Then what do you write?" Lin Zhenhua asked with interest. He wanted to know what a day in 2000 would look like in the minds of people at that time.
"I won't tell you what I wrote. The sample essay that our teacher read in our class said that when you wake up in the morning, put the rice in a special pot, plug it in and go to work. By the time you come back from get off work at noon, the rice is already cooked and still hot. Do you think it's amazing?" Lin Fanghua said.
Lin Zhenhua was amused and crying: "Sister, is your ideal to own a rice cooker?"
"What rice cooker?" Lin Fanghua wondered.
Lin Zhenhua thought for a while and nodded: "This ideal will not take until 2000, and I will realize it for you in 1980. When I find the right materials, I will make you such a pot."
"Brother, you are really good at bragging." Lin Fanghua felt that she had completely recognized the true face of this brother. "Do you think this is an electric stove? People will automatically turn off the power when they cook the rice. They have to be controlled by a robot."
"How can I use any robot?" Lin Zhenhua asked Lin Fanghua to laugh. "The thermostat of the rice cooker is just an ordinary bimetal piece, with iron on one side and copper on the other. The coefficients of thermal expansion are different, so when the temperature is high, it will bend and disconnect the power supply. A pure mechanical product cannot be used for a transistor."
Lin Fanghua heard Lin Zhenhua speak so seriously, and couldn't help but believe it a little: "Brother, do you really understand these things? Isn't you bragging?"
"Tsk, I don't have the leisure to brag. If I were given a cow, I would definitely slaughter it. By the way, Xiaofang, I will make boiled beef for you another day, which is better than boiled fish..."
After washing the dishes and cleaning up the house, the brother and sister went to bed separately. According to Lin Zhenhua's past habits, he basically would not go to bed before eleven o'clock, but when he traveled to this era, he could only retreat from the times. There was no Internet or TV in this era, and the only nightlife of the young workers in the factory was playing cards. Lin Zhenhua's predecessor was very keen on playing cards, but now Lin Zhenhua has no interest in playing cards, so he can only sleep.
Before going to bed, Lin Zhenhua discovered that there was only a curtain between the two rooms where he and Lin Fanghua lived, and there was no door, which made Lin Zhenhua feel a little embarrassed. Lin Zhenhua was the only son and had no sisters in his previous life, and he and his girlfriend had not developed to the point of living together, so he felt a little uncomfortable living in the same house with a girl.
"Will this be inconvenient? Otherwise, I will make a door another day." Lin Zhenhua said to Lin Fanghua.
"What are you doing in the door?" Lin Fanghua said in surprise. She had never thought of any inconvenience. Before her parents passed away, she had always lived in the same room as Lin Zhenhua. Now there are still many 16 or 17-year-old siblings or siblings in the factory. In that era when the average living area was only eight square meters, this phenomenon was not surprising at all.
"You are a girl's house..."
"Bang!" Before Lin Zhenhua finished speaking, Lin Fanghua knocked on his head. Lin Fanghua's almond eyes were round and he stared at Lin Zhenhua and said, "You are a fool for two years? I am your sister, what's inconvenient?"
"Uh...it's mainly because I have lived with men all these years, so I have to get used to it slowly." Lin Zhenhua cursed himself in his heart, turned off the lights, and fell asleep on the bed.
In the middle of the night, Lin Zhenhua woke up. Listening to the even breathing sound of Lin Fanghua's sleep next door, he couldn't help but get up, walked to Lin Fanghua's room, sat on the head of her bed, and looked at the sister who had cultivated in her previous life with the lights of the streets casting out the window.
This is a 16-year-old girl's face as beautiful as spring flowers, with a smile on her face. I don't know what happy things were dreaming about. Her hair was scattered on the pillow, and a faint fragrance spread throughout the house. It was summer day, and Lin Fanghua was wearing only a home-style short-sleeved shirt on her upper body, with two white arms exposed outside. She was wearing a pair of seven-crop trousers, revealing a small piece of her calves and round feet. Each of her toes was so plump and delicate, like crystal agate.
Looking at this sleeping girl, Lin Zhenhua felt that her heart was as clean as if she had been washed by water, and she had no evil thoughts at all. He said to himself softly: This is my sister, my real sister. Since God has brought me to this era and given me a beautiful sister like this, I must take good care of her and make her live happily and happy every day...
