"Qin Ling, are you looking for me?" Li Kuiyong had just returned from outside.

"Well, Kuiyong, I would like to ask you to accompany me to Ishikawa Village. ”

"Okay, it's almost the Chinese New Year, and I just want to go and see Yuemin and them. ”

Li Kuiyong didn't ask a word, which made Qin Ling breathe a sigh of relief, she had prepared a lot of words before.

The postman had just arrived, and everyone had received several letters.

"Yuemin, Zhou Xiaobai wrote to you again?" Zheng Tong asked when he saw that Zhong Yuemin was looking intently at the letter in his hand.

Zhong Yuemin accepted the letter, "What are you looking at, this is sent by Yuan Jun." ”

"Yuan Jun also sent it to me, and the whole article was boasting that he had joined the tank battalion, and it was fun to drive a tank every day, and I didn't bother to read it. "Zheng Tong didn't have a good airway.

"This guy has always reported good news and not bad news, he was a squad leader when he was a recruit company, and he was locked up for several days, or the ocean wrote to me. Zhong Yuemin said.

"Why hasn't Haiyang written recently?" Zheng Tong wondered when he heard Zhong Yuemin mention Zhang Haiyang.

"The ocean is in trouble again, this kid is worse than Yuan Jun, he beat their company commander. ”

"Ah? Yuan Jun hit the squad leader with the front foot, and the company commander with the back foot of the ocean, what did the two of them make an appointment?" Zheng Tong was speechless, "So what's going on now?"

"I don't know, Yuan Jun didn't say it, I'll go back and write a letter to ask. ”

"Well, I hope it's okay. If you want to say that the ocean is interesting enough, every time you write a letter, you come with a little money, unlike the fat man, every time you write a letter and say a little money, but until now we haven't seen a penny. ”

"Didn't I bring you Liubiju's pickles and snacks last time?" Zhong Yuemin asked.

"Where is that enough! Zhao Dayong, a few of them are gone. ”

"Okay, okay, don't pretend, how much did Yuan Jun send you?"

"How do you know?" Zheng Tong was taken aback.

Zhong Yuemin said with contempt: "What Yuan Jun told me was that he was afraid that you would swallow it by yourself." Looks like you really want to do that?"

"No, no, I'm not afraid that you will spend a lot of money to save for you. ”

"Really?"

"It's true!"

"Then take out the money..."

······

When the two of them were arguing, Wang Hong came over.

"Yuemin, let's go to work. ”

"Is the dry food ready?" Zhong Yuemin asked.

"Ready, Jiang Biyun and I steamed some multigrain cakes in the morning, and we won't be back at noon. ”

"Well, we have fewer people, so we can't arrange for people to cook alone. Zhong Yuemin nodded in agreement, and beckoned the others: "Okay, let's go!"

"Hey!" a few people carried their tools and set off against the rising sun.

Strange to say, during the period before the Chinese New Year in northern Shaanxi, the sun was exceptionally good, and the sun was warm.

The old people in the village said that it is not a good thing, the weather is warm, the people are warm, the pest eggs have survived, and there is a lack of rain and snow, and I am afraid that there will be a drought next year.

"Wang Hong, why do you still carry a bag of books with you when you go to work, so heavy!" Qian Zhimin saw that the schoolbag on Wang Hong's back was very heavy and wanted to help.

"Don't move, these are medical books, don't break them. Wang Hong snatched it up.

Jiang Biyun was a little embarrassed to see Qian Zhimin, and said: "Don't touch Wang Hong's treasure book, she stays up late to study these days, and Li Ping and I are not allowed to touch it." ”

"These books were lent to me by Yuemin, and they can't be broken. Wang Hong felt that some of what she said was a little too much, and explained.

Qian Zhimin smiled reluctantly and asked, "Didn't you say before that you hated being a doctor? Why are you working so hard now?"

"Who said I hated being a doctor anymore?" Wang Hong forcibly argued.

"Didn't you say it, there are doctors at home, working overtime every day, no one cares about you since you were a child, and you don't take care of it for a while when you are sick. If you say anything, you will definitely not be a doctor in the future, and you must take good care of your children. ”

"I... I'm angry!"

"Is it because Zhong Yuemin asked you to study medicine that you are so serious?"

"What's the matter, can you manage it?" Wang Hong was so angry that he walked faster.

Qian Zhimin was a little sad and followed closely: "But how can you change yourself because of others?"

But Wang Hong walked faster and faster, and he didn't want to deal with him at all.

Jiang Biyun looked at Qian Zhimin and sighed, and pulled Li Ping away.

On the other side, Zhong Yuemin and Zheng Tong were talking about something with great interest, not noticing the situation here.

"Chang Zhishu, the educated youths have gone to the construction site. "Accountant Zhang came in to find Chang Gui.

Chang Gui was a little surprised: "What's the matter, it's all stopped, what are they going to do?"

"Well, I saw them carrying shovels and flat shoulders out of the village, this is not going to the construction site, where can they go!"

Chang Gui put on his shoes and put on his clothes: "Let's go, let's go and see!"

"Yuemin!" Chang Gui greeted from afar.

Zhong Yuemin responded: "Chang Zhishu, why are you here?"

"Are you going to the construction site?"

"Yes, we've discussed it and we're going to move on to building this dam. ”

"What about the grain?" Chang Gui asked.

"I haven't thought about it yet, we still have some food, we can eat it for a few days, and I'll go to the county to find a way after eating." ”

Chang Gui's face changed, and he persuaded: "Yuemin, you have said that you want to build a league branch, and you will also help you apply, and you will be recruited to study and become a soldier in the future, and I will also promise to follow you first." You can't hurt your uncle!"

"Chang Zhishu, don't worry, I know in my heart, I definitely can't hurt you!"

"You don't have to talk about it!" Chang Gui instructed him.

Chang Gui and Zhang Jinsuo returned to the village committee, and Chang Gui asked, "Jinsuo, how much grain is there in our village?"

"There are only a hundred pounds of corn left. Accountant Zhang replied.

Chang Gui hesitated for a moment, and then made up his mind: "It's dark, take a five-catty and send it to the educated youth." ”

"The branch secretary, no, we finally saved it, and the members of the Kaichun Club still pointed to this bit of corn to fool their stomachs and plowed the land. ”

"I can't take care of so much! If Yuemin's baby goes to the county and leaks his mouth, I'm afraid we'll be in prison!"

Everyone has been busy all day, and they have just come back, and they are all washing.

"Yuemin, why did Accountant Zhang leave in a hurry?" Zheng Tong wiped his bare head with the towel and entered the door.

"It's nothing, bring us a bag of food. Zhong Yuemin was also too tired, and after a day of ramming the soil, both arms were scattered.

Zheng Tong was curious: "Why did you send you food?"

"Hey, hush money. Zhong Yuemin lay on the kang and said with a smile.

"What handle did you catch him? No, what handle did Chang Gui have caught him?"

"I told him that I was going to the county to ask for food, and the old guy was so frightened that he was afraid that I would stab him in the county. ”

"And what are you going to do?"

"Cold salad! Those grains are often expensive, but most of them are distributed to the orphans and widows in the village. Zhong Yuemin said weakly.

"In the end, it's still poor. Zheng Tong sat on the kang and sighed.

"This dam must be fought, or all generations will starve. ”

The next day, early in the morning, everyone went to the construction site again and worked according to the division of labor.

"Yuemin, Du Laohan and Hanwa are here. Zhong Yuemin was ramming the earth with Zhao Dayong, and Zhao Guangzhi, who was picking soil on the slope, shouted.

"Brother Yuemin······"

Zhong Yuemin stopped the stone hammer in his hand and said with a smile: "Hanwa, why are you here?"

"I'm here to help you, I'm here too. Hanwa said and dragged Du Laohan.

"Grandpa Du, are you here?"

"Here, I'll give you a hand. Du Laohan hung the cigarette holder and said with a smile.

"What about your sheep?"

"It's okay, just put it on the hillside. It's just that I'm too old to help you with anything. ”

Zheng Tong said: "You are too modest, who doesn't know that when you were young, you could be worthy of three or five young men in the village, but now you are a little worse, and it is no problem to reach one or two." ”

"Hahahaha······ That's not going to be an old monster!"
