Chapter 150: A Harvest Year, a Warehouse Full of Grain, and a Smile on Your Face!(6000 Chapters Reward Relatives!)
Sunlight pours down from the blue and cloudless sky.
An autumn wind blew, and the fallen leaves on the trees swirled in the wind and fell to the ground.
Since the smoke of gunfire, the small mountain village that Chen Jing has been going to finally become completely lively this year.
It may not be the only mountain village that is lively, and all parts of the country are happy, and the faces of the people who have hope and yearning for a new life are full of smiles.
At the end of the first two years of the movement, people's hearts were still terrified, fearing that it was a dream.
Now that I have finally woken up, I know that this is not a dream, and everyone has hope again.
Especially looking at this warehouse full of grain, this year is really a bumper harvest year, all parts of the country are bumper harvests, what you plant gets, there is nothing that is not harvested.
Zhou Shujie was at the door of her warehouse, looking at the grain filled with a warehouse and smiling.
The expression on her face, how to press the corners of her mouth is curled, she is not a person who has never seen the world, but the joy of this harvest is particularly infectious.
has a memory that no one else has, so she knows that the next few years will be smooth.
Not to mention the annual harvest, there is no big disaster.
And the country's policy is getting better and better, like there are many self-employed people now, in fact, she also wants to get a self-employed person, mainly her family's land, which will be planted for Uncle Guo and their family next year, she herself is idle every day, and she feels that it is not like that.
But this matter still needs to be considered again, so let's talk about it later, the most important thing now is to hand over the food task to be handed over.
Today, the village is very lively, and every household is talking and laughing with their doors open, just waiting for the grain collection task to load grain at home.
In previous years, this was never the case at this time, and some even closed the door and didn't want to hand in the task, because after the task, their children couldn't eat enough.
This year, every family has a room full of food, and no one is afraid that their children will not have enough to eat.
Even the poorest families in the village, who owe the production team tasks every year, can pay all of them this year, and there is still a lot of money left.
So, there was no displeasure in the village.
Zhou Shujie's family lives at the end of the village, and they only arrive at her house every year when they collect grain.
This year is no exception, when people don't come, she sits at home and calculates how much food she can offset by working on the team this year.
It's not that she hasn't found it yet, but this calculation shows that she is really not lazy this year, not only is her family's work declining for a day, but even the work for the team can save three bags of wheat for the family.
Of course, this year, the captain said that the wheat planted by a tractor would be raked again by a tractor in two days, and the villagers needed to pay for the oil in this rake.
In this calculation, Zhou Shujie felt that the money for these three bags of wheat was almost enough for this year's raking money.
She was sitting in the house settling these accounts, when she heard the lively chatter in the courtyard of Aunt Guo'er's house next door, and suddenly became louder.
It looks like the cart that collects grain. This matter has arrived at Aunt Guo'er's house.
Zhou Shujie put away the account book and pen on the kang and put it aside, put on her shoes and went to the ground, dragged the corner of her clothes, and went to Uncle Guo's house.
As soon as Zhou Shujie arrived in his yard, he could hear the sound of talking from Uncle Guo's house.
Villager A asked loudly: "Lao Guo, how many bags of wheat have your family ditched this year?" ”
"Hahahaha!" Uncle Guo first smiled before saying, "Not much, not much, we are all about the same." ”
Villager B took it and said, "It's pretty much something, it's probably about the same in the field." But today's delivery will definitely not be the same. As far as these strong laborers of your family are concerned, they must earn more work than us, and how much wheat can be saved by this, and there will be enough food for next year. ”
Uncle Guo didn't say anything modestly, just laughed with hahaha.
When Zhou Shujie entered the hospital, she saw her uncle holding a notebook and following Uncle Guo and their family to work this year.
There was also a group of well-faithful villagers in front of him, all wanting to know how many bags of grain their family would have to save this year.
Several sisters-in-law of the Guo family did not join the crowd. But they all looked at this group of people with a smile at the door of the house, and as soon as they saw Zhou Shujie enter the hospital, Sister-in-law Guo waved her hand at him and asked her to come over.
Uncle Zhou took the manual notebook of the production team, turned to the page of Guo's house, and compared the number of workers and days with the book taken by Uncle Guo, and there was also a calculation paper next to it. After counting the number of days and multiplying it by this year's 25 catties of grain, this calculation can actually leave 18 bags of wheat for the family.
As soon as the villagers around heard this number, they all boasted and said: "Look at the old Guo family, they are all strong laborers, and they can do it, you see how much grain is saved here, and what you can't eat this year." ”
The villagers also said, "No, it's like our family, just two of us, five children are raised below, and there are two old people above." Our family only saved five sacks of grain this year. ”
The villager next to him answered: "That's nothing to worry about, this year we have no shortage of food, after calling the task, everyone can make some money, go to the seeds, and the remaining grain will be enough to eat next year." Besides, the eldest son of your family, the second child. I can go to work next year, and I will be able to earn my own food next year. What are you worried about?"
Everybody is like that, you and I are chattering one by one.
When the food truck came back and arrived at the gate, the gang had already drunk two gases of water.
Uncle Guo's account has already been calculated, and the car that has been waiting for him came to work when he heard the slogan in the yard remembering that they were carrying bags. "1, 2, 3, go on your shoulders!" Bags of grain were loaded onto the car.
After a while, Uncle Guo's house was almost finished.
Zhou Shujie looked outside the gate and saw that there were three empty cars left, so he knew that this trip to his own family could also be loaded into the car and pulled away.
She said hello to the sisters-in-law of the Guo family, and hurried back to her house to open the door. She was really afraid that the children would be bumped and touched, and if she didn't look at it, she ran outside and was kicked and trampled by the cows and horses, so she put the two children who were crying and chirping into the house.
The child also went into the house, and the door was opened, and the door of the barn was opened.
Zhou Shujie stood in the courtyard and thought about it, and moved the small kang table for eating to the door of the room.
Then he took out two stacks of clean bowls from the bowl rack and brought out the thermos with boiling water. Half a bowl of water came to each bowl and left it to cool.
If you are thirsty when you enter the hospital for a while, you can drink a sip of warm water to quench their thirst.
It's fast, and after a while, I saw a large group of them, and they entered the yard with hula, Uncle Zhou flipped through the account book and turned to the page of Zhou Shujie's house. Three times five divided by two, counts out how many things come out. I went to offset the grain, how much should be loaded, and I had a number of what to load, and the helpers began to load the grain.
The young ones carry them on their backs and on their shoulders. Some of the older ones stand on the shoulders, you know what they are? It's about putting the whole bag right on the shoulder. In this way, it is especially easy to put the grain on the car. But it also requires skill, if you don't master the balance well, it is easy to fall the bag to the ground and break, and the grain will be scattered all over the ground.
Zhou Shujie is still interjecting on the side to tell everyone that there is cool water next to him, and whoever is thirsty will drink it.
Their home decoration is the fastest, and it won't take long to finish.
Their house is the last one, and they are all dressed up after they are finished. A group of people also followed the loaded car and left, except for the car to deliver food, the others returned to their respective homes.
Zhou Shujie sent the two sisters-in-law of the Guo family who stayed to talk to her out of the courtyard before closing the courtyard door.
She went back to the cangfang and took a look, and the half of the grain was still in it. Seeing these surplus grains, her heart seemed to be low, to say that she had never been hungry before, even if she had been hungry, she was too young to remember, and she didn't remember it for a long time.
It is said that there are several old people in the village, who experienced some painful things when they were hungry, and they still remember it deeply, and they beat down the grain every year and stayed in the barn at night, for fear that the grain would be gone. (The painful thing is that many families had young children at that time.) Because he was hungry, he couldn't eat enough, and his health was poor. I can't bear it when I'm sick, so I just go like that. )
Zhou Shujie started to clean up this slightly messy warehouse.
Cleaned up, she herself was covered with a layer of dust.
I went into the house and scooped up a basin of water, washed my hands and wiped my face, threw a rag and wiped the ashes on my body. Then I went outside and put the bowl and table back, and the used bowl was re-cleaned before being put back in the bowl rack.
It wasn't until she entered the back room that she found out. The two children who were locked in the house by him before and didn't want to have fallen asleep under the pat of their mother-in-law.
Now these two children have more and more eyes.
The body is almost the same as that of a normal child, and Zhou Shujie doesn't restrict them too much when he runs outside every day.
When they were locked into the house today, they didn't want to hum and chirp, but they were afraid that their mothers would stare at them, so they didn't dare to cry loudly.
Actually, Zhou Shujie really didn't beat them much, maybe these two children are more sensible.
Although there are times when there are Hoho people, it is inevitable that children will be naughty. As long as they reasoned with him, the two of them wouldn't have a second time.
To say that these two children are now, they can basically understand what adults say. But they don't like to talk themselves.
It's not that I don't like to say it, when I first learned to speak when I was a child, grandma, mother, didn't have an idle mouth all day long, but now I can talk but I don't speak much easily.
In fact, Zhou Shujie felt that it might be that there were no children playing with them.
Now that the autumn harvest is over, they are all in order, and when they have time, they will be brought to Aunt Guo's house to play.
Let them play with Brother Guo's children, and the two of them will be able to open their mouths.
A gentle kiss on the sleeping child's face.
Zhou Shujie went out of the house again, picked up the frame at the door of the cangfang, and entered the back garden.
It's autumn now, and the vegetables in the garden are basically gone.
There are only some green onions, leeks, Chinese cabbage, radishes left.
There are also some of the dipping pickles she grows, such as eggplant chili beans, which have all been put on the shelves.
There are many persimmons and cucumbers, all of which are ripe and full of red and yellow.
The cucumbers are not green anymore, they are all old cucumbers with yellow skin.
Zhou Shujie came with a basket to pick old cucumbers, which are also good things in the countryside.
You have to say, it's not good to have nothing now, and people live their lives so carefully at this time, and the things in this garden are basically not thrown away.
Not to mention this old cucumber, which is particularly appetizing and sour.
Zhou Shujie loves to eat sour, she loves to use this old cucumber to make cucumber soup, or cold cucumber, she loves to eat.
Zhou Shujie's mother-in-law also likes to eat this old cucumber, she always says that she has a good appetite after eating this sour.
She picked the old cucumber from the cucumber rack and used the old cucumber tonight, and she planned to leave the rest for another two days, feeling that the temperature of the past few days did not seem to be able to frost so early.
Carrying the basket to the side, he plucked a handful of green onions and a handful of side dishes.
After looking at the sky, it was still early to cook, so he put the basket at the gate of the garden, and chopped down the old cabbage gang in the cabbage field and threw them into the pigsty.
Her pig can't be considered the bigest, but it also grows very well, the fat on his body is not so thick, but he grows big.
According to visual inspection, she estimated that she would have to have at least 200 catties of meat after killing.
Now there is still a period of time before the Chinese New Year, and she is not busy now, and plans to take advantage of this time to feed the pig something good, and wait for it to paste some autumn fat, so that it can grow a few more catties when the pig is killed in winter.
Watching the pig hum in the pen, hum, hum the food is very fragrant, you hum while eating. As if he was afraid that someone would rob him of food.
Zhou Shujie stood there and watched for a while, then went to the cabbage field to chop some vegetable leaves and put them in the vegetable basket and stepped out, these vegetables were to be fed to the chickens.
Now the vegetables on this mountain are all old, and even if they get back the chicken, they don't like to eat it.
Zhou Shujie chopped some old cabbage leaves for them in the garden every once in a while.
Fortunately, there are a lot of cabbages in their house, and they planted them early, and they filled their hearts early.
Carrying the basket to the door of the chicken rack, he threw the cabbage inside, and scared the chicks inside, and flew straight with a thunderbolt.
When they were frightened, they saw a bunch of green vegetable leaves on the ground, and they thundered around them, and you and I rushed to eat them one bite at a time.
Now that the chickens are bigger, they don't have to chop up the leaves.
And chickens are also considered omnivores, watching them eat stones every day, they always feel that there is nothing they can't eat, and they can talk about anything.
Standing at the chicken rack, I watched the excitement of you fighting for a while.
Zhou Shujie smiled, and then carried the basket into the house and put the basket on the side of the pot in the outhouse.
She went outside again and collected the bunches of red peppers hanging in the yard into the side building. The dried chili peppers were almost dry, and she was afraid that there would be dew or moisture sticking to them at night, and it would not taste good when she ate them.
Every day she was in the sun during the day, and at night she was taking it back.
On the roof of the partial building, some carob slices, shredded beans, and dried potatoes were also dried.
Zhou Shujie stood on the stool, took down all of them, and put them in the side building.
These are all dishes that should be saved for the winter, or if you put them away, you will only have turnips, cabbage and potatoes left for the winter.
Zhou Shujie collected all the things in the yard and what should be collected, and took a hug of firewood into the house to prepare for cooking.
There are steamed steamed buns in the morning at home, this steamed bun is steamed with this year's new noodles, white and soft, full of wheat fragrance, it is really much better than the steamed buns sold on the street in later generations.
After heating up the steamed buns, I boiled an old cucumber soup and fried a plate of shredded potatoes.
By the way, their potatoes are now finished, and they are buried in several piles in the garden, and her eldest brother and second brother have come to help her clean up.
The prepared meal was served on the table, and the two sleeping children woke up with the smell of the rice.
Zhou Shujie looked at them and said with a smile: "This is when I know that I have to eat, I will wake up!"
When they woke up, they didn't cry, and the very sensible child rubbed his eyes twice, and then reached out to let his mother carry them to wash their hands and come back to eat.
Now the children basically eat the same as them.
The steamed buns are made into smaller ones and soaked in soup, so that they can eat them with a spoon and bite by mouth, although sometimes they will get on the table or on their clothes. But in general, the food is quite clean.
The only thing that is different is the milk powder that the pillar mailed back to the child, and every day before going to bed, Zhou Shujie will make a big milk bottle for them to drink.
This is also a good family condition, otherwise in this era, even the children in the moon department, some of them are fed rice soup and noodles, and it is really rare for someone as old as them to drink milk powder.
But don't say it, this milk powder is really good, the two children's health is really much better than in the previous life, as long as you pay attention to it, basically there will be no colds and fevers.
After eating, I boiled half a pot of hot water after cleaning up, and the whole family washed and calculated.
The two children were bathed and let them play under the covers with their bare butts.
Zhou Shujie scooped up some water and washed the feet of her mother-in-law and herself, which was considered to be over, poured the foot-washing water, plugged in the doors inside and out, closed the curtains, lit candles and sat on the kang, playing with the two children while talking to her mother-in-law.
Zhou Shujie's mother-in-law is a very understanding person, she doesn't understand things like farming at home, and she never interferes.
Zhou Shujie said that she could do whatever she wanted, just discuss it with her uncle, and she never pointed fingers. She just helps her watch the child and let her have no worries.
Like today's food task, ordinary old ladies will sit in the yard and talk and laugh with everyone.
But Zhou Shujie's mother-in-law coaxed the child in the house, and she didn't leave the house at all, although she said that she was cured now, but she hadn't interacted with anyone for so many years, and she wasn't used to talking to others.
Anyway, she really doesn't want to deal with the people in the village, after all, the memory of the year is still there, so many people are coldly watching, and she can see the world clearly.
Although her mother-in-law does not interfere in these things, Zhou Shujie feels that the affairs of the family are still clear, so she chatters with her mother-in-law about this year's grain production and grain delivery.
Also, in a few days you have to rake the ground and pay for it.
Zhou Shujie said, and her mother-in-law listened with a smile on the side.
When Zhou Shujie asked her opinion, she smiled and said, "You can just look at it, I don't know much about these." ”
Zhou Shujie didn't be polite to her mother-in-law. That's it. "Okay, then I'll discuss it with my uncle and them." ”
She didn't expect that within two days, Aunt Guo would take the money to the brigade and hand over all the money for the rake that her family was going to pay, and only came back to talk to Zhou Shujie after handing it over.
Zhou Shujie wanted to give the money to Aunt Guo, but Aunt Guo said that she didn't ask for anything, she said that you can't plant your family's land, or the people in the village will poke us in the backbone.
Anyway, in the end, Zhou Shujie's money didn't go into Aunt Guo'er's pocket, so the money for the rake was finally paid by Aunt Guo and her family.
Of course, that's all for later.
When the two children fell asleep, Zhou Shujie and her mother-in-law were also a little sleepy, so they took off their clothes and blew out candles and lay there ready to sleep.
Zhou Shujie was still thinking about it there, when she heard her mother-in-law's voice already ringing.
Zhou Shujie's mother-in-law will have a little snoring when she sleeps, and she is not noisy.
Zhou Shujie followed the gap in the curtain and looked at the big moon in the sky outside.
It seems that it is the middle of the moon again, and I remember the pillars.
She can only think of the pillar occasionally in the dead of night.
It has to be when you are not tired from work, and when you are tired from work, you can go home and sleep on the kang. I don't even have a dream, let alone who I think about.
I don't know how the pillars are there, it's late autumn in the country now, is it still summer for them there?
It is said that it is tropical!
You said that those who spent money to travel to the country in later generations, did they forget this war, she thinks they don't remember.
At least, they don't understand the cruelty of this war!
Zhou Shujie felt that those people were idle, but they were too rich and idle.
There are so many mountains and rivers in the motherland, according to her, she will take a good walk and have fun in her own country, even if she wants to go abroad to play, she will choose a country that has not been at war with China.
Like, a certain south and a certain book, these two countries, she will definitely not go.
Taking Chinese money to others to create an economy, she really doesn't have that much measure.
Zhou Shujie was thinking wildly in his head, knowing in his heart that the pillar would come back safely in the future, so he was not particularly worried.
I got sleepy when I thought about it, and I fell asleep when I closed my eyes. As for whether she dreamed or not, she really didn't know, but she slept soundly anyway.
The village is gradually quiet, only occasionally when the wind blows there will be two dog barks, tonight the villagers can sleep well and will sleep very soundly, this year's labor to this day finally has a result, after handing over the food to be collected by the brigade, each family still has so much, and there is a low heart.
There are also those who haven't slept, it's not that they can't sleep, but they are discussing what kind of daughter-in-law they want to have when they reach the age to start a family.
When the girl is old enough to get married, what kind of young man will she find,
It was as if there was a tacit understanding between the sons, the daughters-in-law, and the daughters, looking for their in-laws, first looking for them in the village as much as possible.
I really can't find it, so I will go to other villages, after all, this child is close, and they can rest assured that there is something under the nose of the old man.
After a while, I said that the girl in this house is good.
After a while, he said that the girl of that family was capable.
Many old couples blew out candles, lay on the quilt and chatted for half a night about whose girl is good and whose guy is good.
These things are really far away from Zhou Shujie, and when her son and daughter are going to get married, she may not be able to say anything.
So she didn't bother with that, she lay there and slept very soundly.
The author has something to say:
The family's land is now basically planted. The rest is to get out of the seedlings in a few days to spray. So the update will slowly recover. Thank you for your continued support!
