Chapter 257: Battle
In June, when raising late rice seedlings, Qiao's father consulted the members and sprinkled a piece of glutinous rice seeds.
Glutinous rice is different from ordinary rice, the yield is lower, the plant is higher, the straw is more suitable for processing into mattresses, and cattle and sheep also like to eat.
The main reason is that the members have a lot of demand for glutinous rice during the New Year's holiday, and they have been going to the supply and marketing cooperatives to buy it, and the price is also distressing, and it is better to grow it yourself.
The seeds of glutinous rice were bought by Qiao Jiayue from the mall, because Bai Ruosheng and Li A were there, and the ones they bought were relatively ordinary.
Qiao's father is in charge of everything in the production team, and the seeds are easy to drop, and half of the seeds in this year's late rice have also been replaced, which is higher than the yield of the current planting.
When spring plowing and sowing this year, Bai Ruosheng and Li A also went to the field to guide for a while.
Now we look at the rice fields under their guidance, and the final yield per mu is much higher than last year, at least twenty or thirty catties.
Don't look at twenty or thirty catties as a lot, but a small amount adds up! The increase in grain production has made the members more convinced of them and more convinced that it is useful to study more.
With the drying dam, it is a sharp weapon for the people who stay behind to dry the rice, not to mention that it is smooth and clean, and the harvest time is also fast.
What I don't know is not an illusion, using a dam to dry rice, and the rice dries much faster than before.
After harvesting the rice, the next step is to plant seedlings and put fish fry, then pick peanuts, dig sweet potatoes, and be busy.
On the seventh day of the seventh month, the locals have the custom of offering flowers and sweets to bless the healthy growth of their children.
And on this day, it usually rains a little, the situation is different every year, sometimes it rains heavily, sometimes it is a drop or two, and the old people often joke that it is the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl who cry when they meet.
On this day, the rice is often not dried, and the members take advantage of the cloudy day to hurry up and work in the field.
However, the night of the ninth day of the new year was not destined to be a peaceful day.
A certain party organization on the Treasure Island side of the island organized a sneak attack on the East Island, and it is said that large ships were used.
Qiao Jiayue: They are still studying in the basement.
And since Cai Ping came to the house, the number of times Qiao's father and Qiao's mother went to the basement has decreased sharply.
Qiao's father seemed to hear something outside, went out quietly, and then turned around and whispered a few words to Qiao's mother, and left.
It didn't take long for Qiao's mother to go to the basement to urge a few children to go to bed early.
When Qiao Jiayue was lying on the bed, she noticed that Qiao's father was not there, and she wanted to ask Qiao's mother, but when she saw that her face was not quite right, she quieted down.
She felt a little strange in her heart, quietly opened the map, and finally found an anomaly somewhere, many green dots moving.
And calculate the distance, it should be out of the range of the right city, so it is likely to be at sea?
She pursed her lips, feeling as if she knew something she shouldn't know.
Cai Ping on the side slept soundly and snored.
has lived here for more than half a year, Cai Ping has almost forgotten the Cai family, and is very dependent on Qiao's mother, so she almost didn't call her parents.
The Takayama Brigade could not hear the roar of the artillery, the distance was too far away, and the news was blocked, and sometimes it was not known what was happening for days.
Qiao Jiayue lay on the bed for a while, and soon fell asleep, but Qiao's mother tossed and turned, and she was so worried that she couldn't do it.
The next morning, Qiao's father came back through the tunnel, so no one noticed that their production captain had disappeared for the night.
He mentioned this matter to Qiao's mother a little, and he didn't plan to say more.
However, this naval battle was the largest naval battle in history, and it was also won, and it was mentioned on the radio of Tianquan City the next day, so that the coastal people did not need to be nervous, and the enemy had been annihilated.
When the members heard the news, they were a little nervous and hurried to the supply and marketing cooperatives to stock up on goods, such as matches, salt and other things.
Although this is a victory, it happened in the next city, and it is not too far from home, so where can the members sit back and relax, they naturally have to prepare.
The members were not in the mood to listen to the radio, so they packed a lot of packages at home, and secretly hid a lot of grain, and if they really hit the inland, they would pick up the packages and run deep into the mountains.
Qiao Jiayue knew that there would be no more fighting, and the worries of the members were completely unnecessary, but she couldn't say it.
But Grandpa Lan was very concerned about this battle, and took Lan Xiangbin to find Qiao's father several times, hoping to get some accurate news.
Father Qiao knew a lot of things, but he couldn't say it, but he still promised the old man to go to Quan City, and also go by the way to see what the situation of the Cai family was.
Fortunately, Kwonshi was not under martial law because of this battle, and there was no obstruction for tractors to enter and exit.
Qiao's father asked Qiao Zhigao to guard the tractor and carry some vegetables to Cai's house, but he knocked on the door for a long time, but no one answered.
At this time, a young girl came over and asked, "Who are you, is there anything to find the Cai family?"
Qiao's father glanced at her and shook his head, "I'm a relative of his family, this pair of robberies has just ended, and I want to send them something to eat." He said, pointing to the two sacks at his feet.
Xu Jia glanced at the sack on the ground and said softly, "The uncle and aunt of the Cai family have been arrested, and you can't find anyone." ”
Father Qiao was stunned for a moment, was arrested, and he immediately frowned and asked, "How long has it been?"
"For the past two months, you should go back quickly, and don't come back in the future. ”
"God, girl, thank you, hey, I really ran for nothing. Father Qiao said as he untied one of the bags, took out a large handful of vegetables tied with straw rope and stuffed them into Xu Jia's hand, "These are for you to eat." ”
After speaking, Qiao's father carried two sacks and walked out of the alley.
The person who was secretly observing on the side saw the things in Xu Jia's hand, and his eyes lit up, "Hey, girl, how much did you buy it?"
Xu Jia took a deep breath, looked sideways at the person who was asking, and said angrily: "No money, someone sent it." “
She walked home quickly, put the food in her hand in the kitchen, and sat in a chair in a daze.
Cai Ming can't be contacted now, Cai's father and Cai's mother are like this, is the entire Cai family no longer good?
Xu Jia thought sadly, then what should she do?
Qiao's father quickly returned to the car with the bag and said to Qiao Zhigao, "Let's go, let's go to the department store and have a look." ”
Qiao Zhigao glanced at the two sacks and brought them back, did he find anyone?
"Uncle, do you want to bring these things back again?" He heard that there were many black markets in the city, so he found a place to sell them.
Qiao's father glanced at Qiao Zhigao and knew what he meant, "Take it back, do you have relatives in the city?"
When he saw Qiao Zhigao shaking his head, he smiled and said, "That's it." ”
The two of them bought all the things that the members were buying, then looked at it and returned to the tractor, there were very few people on the street, and everyone seemed to be frightened by the radio and did not dare to go out.
Qiao Zhigao was a little disappointed, he thought that he could see the black market this time, but he didn't expect Qiao's father to mean it at all.
Father Qiao saw his thoughts, and he didn't want to say more, this kid was still too young, and he thought things too well.
