Chapter 304
For this study of military wives, the above attaches great importance to it, and specially sent two female officers to be lecturers. Li Mei looked at the two heroic female officers, and she felt indescribable envy in her heart. In this era, soldiers are the most popular, let alone female soldiers.
The two female lecturers spoke seriously, and Li Mei also listened carefully, as for whether the others listened, Li Mei did not know.
Since then, I have been studying every day, and although I only organized two hours of study a day, I studied for a week. The leader felt satisfied, and the study came to an end.
Although Li Mei has to study every day, the vegetable field has already been organized by her, so she is about to plant it. That vegetable field, Li Meike has already thought about it, and cucumbers, pumpkins, and winter melons will definitely be indispensable in the future. However, these things can generally be eaten in summer, and there are still a few months in the summer, and you can't do without vegetables in these months, so pumpkins and cucumbers should be planted, but some vegetables that ripen earlier should also be planted.
Counting on your fingers, you can only grow some green beans at most. Li Mei also doesn't want to plant only green beans, but also wants to plant some corn. When the time comes, you can eat some corn on the cob, not to mention, corn kernels can also be fried and eaten as a dish.
Li Mei has calculated it, and she is short of seeds. Wang's sister-in-law's house moved here in the second half of last year, and there are definitely no green bean seeds, and the others are not ripe, so I think about it, and I am afraid that in the end, I can only take the money to buy some from the nearby villagers.
In this era, farmers grow vegetables, and few people spend that unjustly money to buy seeds. They usually keep their own seeds and keep them for the next year. Not to mention now, even in the previous life, her grandmother and her mother did this. Generally, vegetables such as green beans, pumpkins, and cucumbers will be left behind. And these seeds are also very easy to keep, as long as these are ripe, pick them and dry them, and collect them to prevent them from growing worms. Every year, at most, I buy some cabbage seeds, spinach seeds come back, and I don't spend money on anything else.
Everything is ready, just waiting for Zhao Yuanchao to go shopping on her behalf.
On this day, it was finally time for Zhao Yuanchao to have a holiday, and Li Mei got up early in the morning to prepare breakfast. And Zhao Yuanchao went out for a run early, even if he rested, he wouldn't miss the exercise, this is a soldier.
After breakfast, Zhao Yuanchao and Li Mei went out with a basket on their backs. When I went out this time, I didn't just buy vegetable seeds, but also to buy jars and vegetables, so I didn't know if I had enough to fit the baskets.
Because they were going to the village, there was no car to sit in, so the two of them could only rely on their legs, but fortunately, the nearby village was not far away, and it took about half an hour to reach their destination.
When the people in the village saw Zhao Yuanchao wearing a military uniform and carrying a backpack, they knew that he had come to change things. There is no need for Li Mei and them to say more, and they directly take Zhao Yuanchao to the captain.
Now that Fengbang has not left, even if they come to the village to buy things, they can't trade directly with the members, unless they talk to the entire production team, otherwise no one will be good.
Because this village is relatively close to the army, it is not a day or two to trade with the soldiers, and they are basically familiar with the way.
Hearing that Zhao Yuanming and they wanted a big jar and some green vegetables, the captain didn't say a word, and directly called someone to prepare, but he stayed to chat with Zhao Yuanchao.
"Sir, are you buying for the troops?" the reason why the captain asked was not because they bought more vegetables, but if they were private, who would buy like them. No matter how many people have in my family, there are only a dozen, and now although the weather is getting hotter day by day, if you buy too much and eat it, it will be a waste.
In this era, food is particularly precious, and no one dares to waste it. Although these vegetables are not as expensive as grain, they are rotten and spoiled, and the croppers will still feel distressed when they see them.
"It's not. Zhao Yuanchao shook his head and explained to the captain, "My daughter-in-law has come to the army with me this year, and I don't have anything at home, so I want to make some pickles." So I bought more. ”
The captain nodded knowingly, it turned out that he bought it to prepare to make pickles, no wonder he bought so many dishes.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Mei asked the captain if he had any seeds to sell, and if they had a surplus in the production team, she wanted to buy some. When the brigade worker heard this, he generously said that he didn't need money to buy it, and he gave it to them directly.
Asking for something from a stranger in vain, Li Mei really can't do this. But the captain of the team said that they came to the team to buy so many vegetables, and those seeds were given away for nothing.
People give away vegetable seeds for free, but Li Mei wants corn seeds, but she can't give them away for free. Corn is food, and Li Meiyi wants another catty, and the captain is not so generous to give it to Li Mei.
A pound of corn seeds is quite expensive, it costs two cents, and it is still yellow corn seeds. In fact, what Li Mei wants to buy most is the kind of white corn seeds, which is commonly known as waxy corn, this kind of corn boiled corn cob is more glutinous to eat, and it is better than yellow corn. It's a pity that this new variety has not yet been produced, and even if Li Mei wants to buy it, she can't buy it.
In the end, Li Mei not only bought a large jar, but also bought a smaller jar.
On the way back, Zhao Yuanchao carried a large jar on his back, and then the empty place in the basket was full of vegetables, and a small jar was wrapped in his hand. Li Mei was not easy, she carried a whole basket of dishes.
"Why do you buy so many things in one go, I'll just come over and buy them when I'm free, I don't need to be in such a hurry, what should I do when I'm tired?" Zhao Yuanchao said with a distressed face.
Hearing this, Li Mei looked unimpressed, "How can such a little thing get me tired, it's not like I haven't done it at home." "Her eldest sister may not have done heavy work, but she has done all kinds of heavy work, not to mention carrying a basket of vegetables, in her previous life, when she was young, she was okay to pick up a load of food. The woman in the countryside didn't come over like this, even if it was a man who loved his mother-in-law very much, when the woman was busy with the farm, when she should carry it, she would not miss it at all.
Zhao Yuanchao listened to Li Mei's words, and his mood not only did not get better, but became worse. I won't mention the previous things, who let Li Mei not marry him, and he is not his wife, and he will definitely not let Li Mei carry so many things in the future. In the future, if there is any heavy work and tiring work at home, he will give it all to him.
However, some things are not what he wants. He is a soldier, and if there is a mission, it must be a mission. This military wife stays at home, and if anything happens, she must be half a man. If this military wife can't support a family, can this man rest assured that he is doing things outside?
What's more, this study is to let the military sister-in-law learn how not to drag her own man's hind legs, although Li Mei is not the most capable, but she has made up her mind not to drag her own man's hind legs.
Although the two of them have different ideas, they are both bent on thinking about each other. can be regarded as a loving couple.
