Chapter 343: Accident [August Pass 40]
The last time Du Yueping came, he played crazy with Qiao Hongzhi, and almost all the things he could play were called to play all over him.
But this year, he won't have this opportunity to play, Qiao Hongzhi is a half-grown teenager, and other people's families are half of the laborers, and he has to work in the fields every day.
And Du Yueping followed him up the mountain and down the field, and really realized what Grandma Du said, he was not the material for work.
And the Qiao family really treats him as a guest, and what they do is really much easier than Qiao Hongzhi.
When he was carrying water to water the ground before, Du Yueping doubted himself for the first time, and many fifteen or sixteen-year-old girls walked like flying with a load of water.
On the other hand, he picked up half a bucket of water, and he had to shake out half of it, not even as a little girl, which was really embarrassing.
Qiao Hongzhi comforted him and said that it was an unskilled relationship, but only Du Yueping knew that he had a few catties and a few taels.
In the past, when I was studying, the hardships of the peasants were only described in written words, and I had experienced them profoundly.
When I came to the Alpine Brigade the year before, I also experienced the feeling of cutting rice, but in fact, I spent more time drying rice, delivering rice, carrying straw and other easy work.
When it came to carrying water this time, Du Yueping really felt the difficulty of the peasants, and also understood why so many people sharpened their heads and ran to the city.
He re-reflected on what Grandma Du had said, and knew that he could only have a way out by studying or becoming a soldier like Du Yuenan.
And now, even if he is really not good at these, he has to force himself to learn, he doesn't want to be an idle person.
It's just that Du Yueping didn't expect it, but in a few months, high school graduates will lose the opportunity to take the college entrance examination for ten years, lose the stable life in the city, and go to the vast world of the countryside to struggle.
Although in June this year, the central authorities issued a circular on the graduates of colleges and technical colleges, saying that they should be arranged to go to the masses as much as possible and work at the same time.
At that time, no one thought much about it, and finally such a policy would appear.
In fact, there are already signs of everything.
Last year, it was important to ask various organizations and institutions to reduce their expenditures and promote a culture of economy.
Earlier, the non-urban population was reduced, and the prison prisoners were released.
It can be seen that the population pressure in the city is too great.
The radio in the brigade has not been repaired, and the members are used to it, but when someone sees Du Yue, they will still ask a few questions and ask him to help send a few parts back after returning to Haishi.
Du Yueping didn't know much about these electronic parts, so he asked Qiao Hongyuan the names and models of these parts, "I don't have any impressions." ”
"I don't know how the thrift market is now, why don't I write to my grandmother to take a look?"
"Don't bother your grandma, the old man is old and not suitable for going to crowded places. Qiao Hongyuan frowned, disagreeing with this.
"My grandmother is in good spirits. ”
Qiao Hongyuan still refused, "No, your grandmother has bound her feet, it's not safe enough to go out." ”
Du Yueping couldn't help but be silent, it's true, if it weren't for Du Yuenan's presence, Grandma Du would be afraid that she would have to suffer a lot.
"There is no radio listening, but now the brigade has other entertainment, and there is no difference. ”
In fact, Qiao Jiayue was able to buy these parts from the system mall, but Qiao Hongyuan felt that there was no need to repair them for the time being.
The battery is a problem, mainly because I am afraid that people will see the clues of the battery, and it is not the kind of battery sold on the market at all.
So Qiao Hongyuan decided that before pulling the wires in the brigade, the radios were always broken.
"You've been here for more than half a month, do you want to consider going back?" Qiao Hongyuan didn't ask this to drive Du Yueping away, but that it was really unsafe for an old man to be at home, "Do you rest assured that your grandma is home alone?"
Du Yueping felt a sense of guilt in his heart, and wiped his tanned face, "Then I'll leave after half a month." ”
"Well, in the middle of July, Uncle Cai Ming should come here, and you just happened to go with his car. Qiao Hongyuan calculated the time and guessed that Cai Ming was also coming.
Qiao's mother also planned to find a time to talk to Du Yueping about it, but she didn't expect Qiao Hongyuan to mention it first.
It's not that they want to drive Du Yueping away, but now it's not calm, leaving Grandma Du at home as an old man, who can rest assured?
That is, Du Yueping is still young and does not think about it so much.
And Qiao's mother is different, some things may need to be solved, and some are not needed.
Cai Ming came on a bicycle, he knew that the city was dry this year, and he didn't plan to ask for too many things.
Because the weather is too hot, the harvest of the mushroom shed is worse than in previous years, and the hens don't like to lay eggs, even the pigs don't grow much fat.
So in the past six months or so, in addition to the brick kiln, the Alpine Brigade has actually earned no more money than in the same period in previous years.
"I know from my dad that our province is going to be a big hit, and once there is this organization, life will not be as easy as it is now. ”
"Once the provincial capital is established, the following cities and counties will respond positively, and it is already in progress. ”
"Since last year, armed fighting has been prevalent, and many incidents have occurred, and many organs and units have also been impacted, affecting work and production. ”
Father Qiao touched his fingers, he always knew that this day would come, and when it finally came, he felt more calm in his heart.
Two or three rounds had already been held elsewhere, and they were about to start.
However, the reason may be related to their geographical location, as opposed to the treasure island, some things are relatively reduced.
And the investigation of overseas relations, which has been mentioned for a long time, is finally on the agenda.
"My Abba said that if Director Quan City is red, it should be his friend, not a radical. ”
"But it's hard to say about the county seat below, and all parties are competing. ”
Father Qiao understood what Cai Ming meant, and if they had anything to do in the future, Father Cai would still be able to help say a few words.
After all, in this large area, there must be a detailed investigation of overseas relations, and there are not many people who can hide.
And those who have overseas connections, study, work, and even marriage will definitely be affected.
Not to mention those staff who have overseas study experience or overseas experience, they are often in some important positions, can they continue to carry them in the future?
"I'll take note, thank you. Father Qiao patted Cai Ming's shoulder, he didn't need to reveal this to himself.
Some things really aren't that simple.
Qiao's mother prepared a lot of things for Cai Ming and Du Yueping, but it was really a lot less than in previous years.
After Qiao's father watched them leave, he went into the basement and flipped up his notebook, which recorded some of the news and analysis he had heard from listening to the radio.
At this time, it was already the beginning of August in the new calendar, and more than a week had passed since the typhoon rained, and the temperature was gradually climbing again.
The members continued to get nervous, eager to grow on the edge of the field and turn into a big tree to block the sunlight from the rice field.
These days, the members of the club have cut a lot of wheat, but how can this thing be as delicious as rice? Everyone is still looking forward to a good harvest of late rice.
Because of the drought, the fern grass on the mountain grows slowly, which is the main source of firewood, and the mountains closer are bare, and Qiao Jiayue and they can only go farther to cut.
And what surprised Qiao Jiayue was Gao Qingqing, who reversed the high profile of staying in the alpine brigade at the beginning, worked hard, and cut more ferns than others.
Then she found out that Gao Qingqing had given half of the fern to Gao Yulian's family, which was really a bit surprising!
