Raising Babies in the 70s - Chapter 41

There were new people in the house nearby, and many people secretly observed the movements of the Lu family.

They first noticed Lu Yan who was going in and out. Such a tall and handsome man appeared in a family’s courtyard. He was not a soldier but an officer. Many people felt regretful.

It would be great if they hadn’t met him in a family’s courtyard. Generally, the male officers in such a place had already married. Of course, it was also possible that a friend of an officer came to visit, but the possibility was very rare.

“He’s the army officer who just moved in, Lu Yan, Rong Hongbin and his team’s chief of staff.”

“Is that so? How old is he? He still looks young.”

“Twenty five.”

“He’s married so young?”

“Aren’t you stupid? Why would he be in a family’s courtyard if not for being married?”

…

Everyone talked a lot about the new army officer in private, mainly because it was strange to see that the new army officer was so good-looking that one couldn’t help but want to gossip about him. The handsome people were always more noticeable.

Many people inquired about Lu Yan’s situation in private.

After graduation, Lu Yan’s classmates and friends were scattered all over the coastline. There were also a few people who knew him there. Some people even learned the story of the pair from the population of the Bencheng Advanced Education Class by phone.

It turned out that the two got married after they saw each other once!

A big trouble, a small pepper, both of them were violent!

Everyone: !!!!!!!!

Oh dear, that was different.

Were they going to persuade them in the future?

“The army officer’s house is next to Zhang Tuan’s house, I remember that house…”

It turned out to be a house with bad “Feng Shui”. (Luck)

Many people stopped talking, and even silently guessed in their hearts how long it would take for the couple to separate.

Yang Yufeng had been following the movements of the newly arrived Xiao Qin’s family. At such a young age, Xiao Qin, who looked squeamish, was actually different from other girls. On the second day of her arrival, she was very active in saying that she wanted to grow vegetables.

Growing vegetables?

She also planned to plant a lot of vegetables and fruits, and bought a lot of vegetable seeds.

Yang Yufeng: “????”

The weather in Qiongzhou Island was different from that in her hometown. Even a good farmer in the field would be blind when he first went to Qiongzhou Island, not to mention the villagers at the time. In fact, they were not very good at growing vegetables.

It was good to have a mouthful of vegetables to eat. Generally, there were few types of vegetables grown in private plots, and there was not enough food.

As a result, Xiao Qin not only said that she wanted to grow vegetables, she also wanted to grow many types of vegetables. Would this young girl know how to grow vegetables?

She couldn’t carry things on her shoulders, or pick them with her hands. Did she ever experience a typhoon? But she said she wanted to grow vegetables?!

Yang Yufeng didn’t believe that she could produce a harvest, so she didn’t give any thought.

Yang Yufeng looked at the beautiful and childlike fence of the Lu family’s chickens. Yang Yufeng had never seen anyone do that, and it was a complete waste of energy. She clicked her tongue and was making fun of the new couple!

She wanted to see how long they would fool around.

To drag the blessing of the newcomer next door, Zhang Chengbei’s family also had a good meal the previous night. Huang Xinying showed off her skills and went to cut pork to make Mapo tofu, spicy shrimp, boiled pork slices, double-cooked pork… Even if she thought about it, it made her drool.

It was not uncommon to eat seafood from the sea, but pork was rare and precious. Of course, chickens were the most valuable, and they were not willing to kill them.

When his wife, Huang Xinying, was cooking, the whole house was full of aroma, and it made him sneeze several times, but the person next door didn’t even come to their house to ask about it.

The young newlyweds of the Lu family did not go to the cafeteria the previous night to get a meal, but cooked at home.

It was strange.

They were also experienced. Most of the new couples couldn’t cook rice and vegetables. Even if they did, they came to a new place full of seafood. They were also clever women who couldn’t cook without rice. Fishes were hard to make and delay caused them to stink. The younger girls were even more afraid of those sticky squid and octopus, and didn’t want to touch it.

So these couples chose to eat a canteen meal.
