&;srn&;Old shadow of the Republic of China 5o

Because the government has moved outside the city, there is a new market outside the city. This new market is in a valley, and a narrow stall consists of earthen platforms and sheds made of reed mats on it. But it is particularly lively.

On the eve of the Spring Festival, there were many people in this newly built market. Lin Yutong and the Fourth Master also rarely came out to prepare New Year's goods. Many students also came out to watch the fun, but few of them were willing to spend money. However, the lives of ordinary people are much more abundant than before.

The Fourth Master settled the score with Lin Yutong: "You think, every household is not pointing at the army for dinner now. The vegetables, eggs and poultry at home are not worried about selling them. In the past, a chicken costs 2 cents, but now it costs 9 cents, and there is no exchange price. If there is an old donkey in the family, then it will basically be earned every day. Hiring a donkey to drive the old donkey to work together for 60 cents a day. Some villagers still want to ask the donkey to take a break, but they can't even earn this money."

Lin Yutong immediately understood that there were also the medicinal materials collected at home. The jujube trees in front of the house and the house were woven in the house. The milk squeezed out of the ewes that had lambs could actually be exchanged for money. And the supply was in short supply.

She smiled and said, "This is also a good thing. Population prosperity can always drive the local economy."

The two walked along the way. The Fourth Master held her hand and was afraid that she would be squeezed. He didn't buy anything else, so he bought a lot of red dates. In addition, it was the local cloth, and the child had to make clothes. The most difficult thing to buy now is eggs. In winter, chickens don't lay eggs, so they didn't sell them at all. Moreover, chickens are really thin in winter. It's just that the Fourth Master bought a few kilograms of mutton, but it's better to forget the chicken.

Before leaving, I saw half a bag of walnuts at the outermost part of the market. A little girl squatted aside to sell them. The Fourth Master spent two dollars to buy all the walnuts, "It's not easy to find these nuts." Pregnant women should eat some of these things appropriately.

On New Year's Eve, everyone gathered at the unit. No one went home to celebrate the New Year with his family. Some units held evening parties and some units held dance parties, but the final program was indispensable, that is, meals.

The Fourth Master doesn’t have to go to the unit, “You go, it’s over.”

Lin Yutong had mixed dumpling fillings, and the noodles that made dumplings were already alive. She pointed outside and said, "Call the guards to come and make them together. You can eat them first." The dumplings made of mutton and green onion are not much flour used in the mix, and they can ensure that one person can eat more than a dozen.

But this is much better than the New Year's Eve dinner in hospitals and schools. The hospital is slightly better than the school. The subsidy for working here is half a grade higher than that of others, so the benefits for the New Year are also better. The white meat is stewed in the pot, but there is not much meat, but it can be stewed in a large pot of good soup, and then put cabbage, radish, tofu and vermicelli, each person has a large bowl. This is a rare good meal. Few units can have food standards at this level. Therefore, before the meal starts, they all gave Lin Yutong and Fang Yun a thumbs up.

Lin Yutong ate half a bowl with her, and gave all the rest to Qian Ni. She had to rush to the venue to accompany the students to celebrate New Year's Eve. When she arrived, the cafeteria was dispersed, everyone had to cook, and they all went back to their dormitories. Lin Yutong was outside the cave, listening to the laughter and joy coming from the cave.

Some caves may have finished their meals, and the lights inside have been turned off. Yan'an has very few oil lamps. As long as it is not a matter of learning, few people are willing to light oil lamps or candles at night. Everyone is lying in the quilt in a dark room for a talk. When they walked to the door of a cave with lights on, they wanted to push the door in. Who knew that as soon as they raised their hands, the inside would be turned off.

Then he heard a clear voice saying, "Little sparrow, it's your turn."

Lin Yutong was stunned. There were many nicknames among the students, such as this classmate named Xiaomao, who must be a petite and talkative person.

Sure enough, she heard the girl inside say authentic Sichuan dialect, "Then I will talk about our hometown dishes and repot meat."

"What's the best thing about refrying meat? Who hasn't eaten it?" Everyone inside started to cheer.

The little sparrow said slowly, "You don't understand this. There are two ways to cook the pot meat, one is to fry raw salt, and the other is to fry cooked salt. These two methods are completely different, and the taste is also different." She described the taste of the pot meat in detail. Lin Yutong could hear the sound of swallowing saliva outside, so she heard her talk about Mapo tofu again, how to choose chili peppers and peppers. "It's so spicy that people can't open their mouths anymore."

Another classmate from Beijing introduced bean juice. Many of them refuted that the bean juice is soy milk? The classmate immediately showed off and told everyone how the bean juice fermented, which was a bit sour. "In winter, I held a bowl of hot soy milk and sucked it."

Then Lin Yutong unconsciously made a sucking sound, and the inside and outside were synchronized.

Qian Ni said behind her, "You're hungry, go back to have a meal."

Lin Yutong waved his hand and continued to walk forward. He changed the cave and listened to the corner of the wall. The classmates from Inner Mongolia inside were talking about roasting the whole lamb. "The whole fat sheep was carried by two people with a stick. It was yellow and fragrant when the roast was roasted." Lin Yutong was about to drool again, and her cheeks were sore.

I also heard that there are more experts in it. They say that the best way to eat roasted whole lamb is to eat sheep, and goats are not good. Sheep are warm in nature, goats are cold in nature, and the goat's tail is a good thing. They are cut into thin slices and eaten raw, which tastes good.

Lin Yutong wiped the corner of her mouth and decided not to listen. Anyway, these students are still from wealthy families. Look at the food standards in the past, compared with the current boiled dishes,

Qian Ni followed Lin Yutong back and whispered: "This is everyone's spiritual meal."

Spiritual meal?

I really can't say that this is the spiritual victory method, so I'd better find another abuse. I guess my cheeks hurt so hard that my stomach hurts even if I'm not hungry. It seems that this spiritual victory method can make them feel that the suffering they suffer during the day is not considered bitter.

When he went back, the Fourth Master left fifteen dumplings for Lin Yutong and Qian Ni, which were hot in the pot.

Seeing that the dumplings were well-wrapped, Lin Yutong pinched one with her hands: "Who made it?"

"I made this bowl of you." The Fourth Master brought her a plate of vinegar, "Do you want garlic?"

Lin Yutong looked at Jiaozi in shock and looked at the Fourth Master: "Have you learned to make dumplings?" He has made progress! Now there are more and more skills. It won't take long, and he probably has nothing to do except not having children.

The Fourth Master was modest: "I didn't roll out the skin."

"I have never eaten such good dumplings made like this." Lin Yutong praised. It was not the kind of person who just pinched the noodles and crept through them. But it was not a complicated trick. It just squeezed it and squeezed it tightly. The meat filling became a meatball, with two wings and two small wings. How cute it looks.

The Fourth Master looked out and said, "I didn't leave it for Yang Zi, I'll give him another one tomorrow."

Lin Yutong nodded: "You don't have any special taste in this mutton today, and it doesn't have any mutton smell."

Because of eating glutinous pepper grass.

The Fourth Master said to her again and again. The two of them were approaching twelve o'clock, and it was quiet outside. Except for the sound of the wind blowing the window paper, there was no sound of firecrackers.

Now during the Chinese New Year, the sound of firecrackers can easily cause panic and think that there is a war again. So everyone has a tacit understanding that no one sets off firecrackers, and the raw materials used to make firecrackers can be made, which is not better than anything else. The customs that have been passed down for a long time. In this environment, no one takes the initiative to promote or suggest, but they all have the same tacit understanding.

Yangzi came early the next morning, brought a can of buckwheat honey, and had two meals. Before leaving, he said: "I will be out of the army after the fifth day of the first lunar month. Maybe I will go to the front line soon."

I will come back sooner or later, but Lin Yutong didn't expect it to come so quickly. The bullets on the battlefield never have eyes. When they go, no one can guarantee whether he can come back alive.

Yang Zi smiled and said, "Isn't it just for this day? Sister, don't worry, if I have something to say to my mother, I have nothing to say to me. I will only meet my elder brother in the future, and my elder sister will say sorry for me. And if I don't meet my second sister, you don't have to go to find someone like our family, which is full of countries but not countries, so why do you think it's a family?"

Lin Yutong packed all the clothes, shoes and socks that had been prepared for him, "Come back alive"

Yang Zi reached out and touched Lin Yutong's belly: "I can't wait for my nephew to be born." Then he went to see the fourth master again: "Brother-in-law, can I give the child a name?"

The Fourth Master patted Yang Zi on the shoulder: "Please take it. Whatever you name, the child will be named."

"Changsheng." Yang Zi laughed: "How about calling Changsheng?"

"Okay!" Lin Yutong made the final decision, "I hope that our team will always win, and that his uncle will be a general who will always win."

The couple stood at the entrance of the cave, looking at Yang Zi carrying luggage, disappearing in front of him along the path of the sheep farm. The feeling of sending relatives to the battlefield was like this. They felt aching in their hearts, and they knew that this trip was a lifetime of death. But no matter what, they could not say anything to stop them. Put their hearts in mind, what should those mothers send their sons to the battlefield and wife send their husbands to the front line? It is thousands and hundred times more uncomfortable than they are now.

The Fourth Master pulled him in and changed the topic: "The Changsheng Changsheng Changsheng Changsheng" he smiled, "One pronunciation, so many words can be expressed, and each of them has good meanings, and this name is well named."

But the premise is that the child is a son. If the daughter calls this name, no matter which one is suitable?

When he thought of the girl's name, Lin Yutong's eyes flashed by a strong and powerful tomboy who could compete with one or ten.

The two of them sat in the room, and they felt a little heavy because of Yang Zi's affairs. In the middle of the afternoon, Chen Chen came and brought a bag of oil cake to the door, a little restrained.

Love is not a matter of affection. When she was able to catch Yang Zi out of prison, the girl had a good personality. In terms of love, it is hard to say who is right or wrong. Lin Yutong enthusiastically brought the person in and brought her the drunk dates, "There is no activity in the school today?"

Chen Chen shook his head, restless and didn't know what to say to Lin Yutong. Lin Yutong smiled, "You're welcome, Yang Zi and you are classmates, not outsiders."

I don't mind at all.

Chen Chen then looked up: "Sister, do you know what happened between Yang Zi and me?"

Lin Yutong nodded: "People are constantly changing. Different environments and time, the choices they make will be different. I didn't hear anything complaining about you from Yang Zi. If you have anything to say or help, just speak up."

Chen Chen relaxed all over: "Sister probably doesn't know. The social media asked Yang Zi several times, but Yang Zi refused. Later, he heard that he wanted to set up a newspaper and Yang Zi's writing style was also good. I agreed to go with him. But Yang Zi refused to go to the front line and insisted on going to the front line. If others dared not say this, I also knew that I was not very enlightened, but if he left, the work in the rear was actually good."

This is because he can't bear to let Yang Zi go to the front line. Yu Qing was still unfinished, but Lin Yutong didn't know what to say. She was silent for a long time, "I'm in the same mood as you. But he is an adult, and he has what he wants to do. We shouldn't stop him."

Chen Chen's shoulders suddenly collapsed: "Maybe I am really a bourgeois lady, and I have bourgeois problems and are weak."

This is not weakness, no one can be really indifferent. Lin Yutong patted her and was afraid of her: "You are a good girl. You don't have to think about it in the future."

This girl was sleepwalking when she left. Lin Yutong felt that she really liked Yang Zi, so she dared to say such things. From the overall situation, this is called not knowing the generality. But from the perspective of human nature, it is not human nature.

When these students were sent to the war, there was a large pre-war mobilization meeting. Lin Yutong and the Fourth Master were crowded in the crowd. They didn't find Yang Zi anywhere, so the team started.

That night, Lin Yutong had a nightmare. When she woke up, she sweated and wet her quilt. The Fourth Master hugged her and didn't let go all night.

Lin Yutong thought she would be worried for a long time, but who knew that when she got up the next day, someone was shouting in the hospital yard. She didn't dare to delay, so she immediately walked out of the boat. As a result, she arrived at the hospital. There was a door panel at the door. On the door panel was a woman wearing a red cotton-padded jacket and gray pants and black-faced look, looking like she was in her twenties and thirties. As soon as Lin Yutong arrived, she smelled a fishy smell. Her face remained unchanged, it was a venereal disease.

Fang Yun rushed over and whispered to Lin Yutong: "Before we were talking to you, the popular girl in her building. Later, I heard that she had gone to the countryside and went to the distant relatives." Working in the Women's Rescue Association, we were indispensable to dealing with these women. Some of them had been renovated, but unexpectedly, this person who volunteered to go to the countryside came back in this way.

Lin Yutong didn't pay attention to what happened to this person. "The important thing is that this disease is contagious. Any man who has had a close relationship with her may be infected. If these men go home and go home, the scope of this infection will be large. I think you should report it quickly. The disease must be controlled immediately and cannot be allowed to spread like this."

When he turned around, he ordered someone to arrange a separate ward. I guess no one wanted to have a ward with her.

After the people settled down, Lin Yutong asked a few nurses: "Who sent it?"

"A few fellow villagers sent people here and there, and there was no one."

Lin Yutong frowned and had to quickly check where the woman lived before.

When she encountered this disease, she felt uncomfortable. She prescribed medicine for the woman and told the nurse, and she vomited when she went out. She didn't take a bite all day.

The Fourth Master came out of the study and saw that she was sorting out the booklet for preventing and treating STDs again, so he went over to sit beside her and patted her back: "Is it still uncomfortable?"

"I just feel nauseous." It's hard to say whether it's a psychological factor or whether it's time for pregnancy reactions.

The Fourth Master patted her and said gently: "This matter is not urgent, so you have to do it bit by bit. Now you are only in Qinbei, so you just think it is a summary of your experience. From now on, it will be a nationwide treatment, prevention and inspection, and how can you make it a success?"

Of course Lin Yutong knew this, "It is difficult to ask those who may be infected to take the initiative to check up on their own." Men don't want people to know such a dirty thing, it's a matter of face. And women can't bear this dirty reputation, and how many people have a prostitute hurt!

The Fourth Master didn't want to tell her to think about these disgusting things, so he calmly changed the topic a little: "A friend of Principal Song studied the issue of prostitutes in Shanghai in his early years. Later, when he arrived in the capital, he was still idle. I also occasionally heard him talk about some of them. He did a lot of investigations, all with detailed data. Every year, the tax paid by prostitutes in the capital is as high as 417,600, and nearly 420,000. It can be seen that compared with before the Republic of China, this is even better."

Of course, Gao Linyutong knew about the taxes in this industry. But she never expected this period to be so serious.

"Legalization makes this base bigger and bigger." The Fourth Master and Lin Yutong counted with their fingers, "As long as women have the will to do this, they can fill out a prostitute application form. After filling in the form with their name, age, origin, residence, reasons for prostitution, whether they have husbands and relatives, whether they are voluntary, they will be fine. Pay taxes on a monthly basis, no one can control it. Nowadays, when the price of the goods can be eaten with a penny, this place is 420,000, and how much should it cost nationwide? Who would be willing to ban it? Also, you don't know, there is a special brothel specially opened for foreigners in the capital. They all select red girls and first-class prostitutes from famous brothels, and specialize in outsiders." As he said that, his voice lowered, "I heard that this was still the instructions of Song himself, and Jiang nodded."

Lin Yutong looked at the booklet written on the table and felt that the responsibility was long and hard. "I will go out tomorrow and see where the woman was originally settled. I will take people to free medical treatment and go door to door to see the women at home."

"Okay!" The Fourth Master smiled, "If you want to go out, you should be energetic and have a meal quickly."

The vinegar-fried cabbage and dried millet rice were all made by Qian Ni. Thinking about tomorrow's work, I unknowingly finished a large bowl of rice.

When she was about to leave the next day, Lin Yutong went to the ward to see the woman who was already seriously ill. As soon as she entered, she realized that the ward was very cold and no one burned the stove for the ward where she was. This made Lin Yutong look particularly ugly, and she gathered all the nurses, "Doctors are kind-hearted! I told you as early as the first class. But what about you? Are you treating patients like this?"

No one spoke, but no one was convinced.

Fang Yun came over to interrupt, "I asked someone to take care of him, but it was not frozen. It was a waste for this person's ward to use charcoal fire." She went over and lifted the quilt and asked Lin Yutong to see it, "I asked the cafeteria to take a few bricks and put them in the stove to heat it, take it out and wrap it in newspaper, stuff it into her bed, warming it. I'll ask someone to change it later."

Lin Yutong couldn't continue to say it. First, one person occupied a ward, and burning carbon was indeed a waste. Many injured people took the initiative to ask not to burn so warmly and save money. The heroes are like this. It's a bit unreasonable to treat a prostitute who has a dirty disease. Second, although everyone is in a mood, they don't really freeze her. They give her medicine, food, and sleep in a warm bed. What else should I do?

She took a deep breath: "I hope that everyone will not have tinted eyes when dealing with other innocent and infected female compatriots. They will have more sympathy and tolerance."

After saying this, the atmosphere relaxed.
To be continued...
