Shen Yunfang's house is a typical rural house in Northeast China, with a total of three rooms, as soon as you enter the house, it is a hall house, and it is also a kitchen, and there is a house on the left and right sides. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Shen Feiyang lived in the east room yesterday, in addition to a large kang and two mahogany boxes, and then a four-corner table and two stools with uneven legs.

There was also a kerosene lamp on the table. Yes, at this time, there was no electricity in Gaijiatun, and every house relied on kerosene lamps for lighting at night. And Shen Yunfang's kerosene lamp has long been out of kerosene, so for a long time, she was dark at night.

She pushed open the door to the Westroom across from her and looked inside, it wasn't much different from the one she was living in, except that it was darker. Shen Feiyang looked at the window, it was smaller than the one in the East House, and the windows were pasted with newspapers.

Under the window is a big kang, the kang is smooth, there is not even a kang mat, the whole room is stacked on the ground with a few wicker baskets, the top is an empty dustpan. Next to it was a hoe and a shovel. There is also a vegetable mound on the ground that has been used for many years.

Shen Feiyang walked over, didn't dislike the dust, rummaged through the basket, there must be no good things, there was a roll of plastic sheeting in the frame, a few slightly thicker wires, I don't know what they were for, and a pair of cotton gloves and a few rags.

After walking around to make sure that everything in the room had been checked, he finally picked up the vegetable mound on the ground and walked out slowly.

Gaijiatun is located in the mountainous area, which is considered to be at the foot of the mountain.

When Shen Feiyang came out of the house, he saw that his yard was quite big, but there was everywhere, and there were four old hens spinning around in the yard with their heads held high. When they saw that people had come out of the house, they all came over enthusiastically and cooed.

I guess no one has fed them for more than a day, and they are hungry.

Shen Feiyang's first thought after seeing them was that he actually raised four chickens at home, wouldn't he cut the tail of capitalism now?

She was stunned and thought about it hard, well, it seems that this remote mountain village is not very affected by this **** era, except for a few Red Guards who came to them in the past six years, basically no one has come to them over the years. It's just educated youth or something, and they didn't come to Tunzi.

Therefore, even in the two years when the grip was strictest, the villagers in Gaijiatun still did what they should do, whether they should raise chickens or chickens, and it did not have much impact.

The year before last, suddenly a new order came down, saying that in response to the call of the state, every household should vigorously develop pig breeding and support national construction, no matter how many chickens and ducks can be raised, there is no requirement, but pigs must be raised, and every household must sell a qualified fat pig to the state every year, and the qualified standard is to reach more than 135 catties, and sell it to the commune meat station.

Of course, if you raise too much, you are not allowed to buy and sell at will, and you can only sell it to the state.

However, although every family raises chickens and pigs, it is difficult for every family, because Shen Feiyang remembered that since Shen Yunfang was sensible, the money from the Gaijiatun production team to the end of the year was very small, and it would be good for a diligent family to get one hundred and thirty or forty yuan a year, if they were lazy, a family would also have thirty or fifty yuan a year, and this money should be spent from the beginning of the year to the end of the year, and it would cost money for oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, clothes, shoes and socks, and it would be good if the money could be spent enough for a year.

As for wanting to earn more money, you can only rely on the old hens and big fat pigs raised at home. Basically, every family takes the eggs they have saved to the supply and marketing cooperatives and sells them directly to the state, or directly exchanges them for things in the supply and marketing cooperatives.

In this era, eggs were hard currency. If you take the eggs, you can spend them directly as money.

Then some people will think, in this case, wouldn't it be enough to raise a few more chickens at home, and if you can't wait for the end of the year to sell the fat pigs, won't you have money? However, in this era, people can't eat enough, and raising chickens and pigs is not an easy task.

If you want chickens to lay eggs and lay eggs frequently, you also have to feed food, or not only eat vegetable leaves, but chickens can't stand it. Raising pigs is even more, it eats more than people, how can the average person have so much food to feed, so the pig is also thin in a year, and the country's purchase price is also low, so it is not much money to raise pigs.

But for Shen Feiyang, who had been engaged in breeding in her previous life, these were not things, she looked at a few old hens at her feet with green eyes, and felt as if she had hope for life.

For the sake of their own happy life in the future, these chickens must be raised. Shen Feiyang cheered up, picked up the big broom behind the door and began to pull the yard.

The Shen family is divided into the front yard and the back yard, the front yard is mainly to raise chickens, and the backyard is a self-reserved land, planting some vegetables that are usually eaten or something.

There is about forty or fifty square meters in the front yard, and there is a little firewood piled up on the left, all of which are branches, Shen Feiyang knows, this is what Shen Yunfang usually picked up when he went to the mountain to herd sheep, and kept it for cooking and burning fires. On the right is a half-man-high chicken coop, and there is a small yard with branches next to it, which is where the four old hens usually move, I don't know why, but now those chickens can walk in the yard. The courtyard wall is a stone wall, which is the stone that Shen Yunfang's father got up the mountain with the Shen brothers when he was still there, so the walls of the Shen brothers are all stone walls.

Shen Feiyang is still very satisfied with this wall more than one meter high, the first thing is safety, and she will live here as a girl in the future, with such a strong and tall wall, she has a sense of security in her heart. Then there is the fact that it can isolate the sight of some people, and if you do something at home in the future, you can't let people see through it at a glance.

Now the week of the stone wall has been planted with nest melon seedlings, this month, the leaves have fallen off, and there are a few green-skinned big nests of melons on the ground.

She swept the chicken manure in the yard together, then found a dustpan behind the door, rubbed all the chicken manure inside, and then went to the backyard with it.

Shen Yunfang's house is really located at the foot of the mountain, the whole village, her house is in the northernmost part of the village, close to the mountain, along the path in her backyard, you can enter the mountain in less than ten minutes.

Of course, there was a road in front of her house that led to the mountains, but from that road, the first one was a small hillside, where she often went to herd her sheep.

Because there is a mountain behind it, there is no one left, so the backyard of Shen Yunfang's house is larger than the average family.

The whole backyard is a large vegetable patch, and there are two small dirt roads along the direction of the house.

Shen Feiyang took the dustpan in his hand and walked down a small dirt road to the backyard.

It's mid-to-late October, and the fields have been closed, and only a few remaining vegetables are still hanging on the branches.

Shen Feiyang went straight inside, and at the end was the thatched house, like all thatched houses in the countryside, with three panels and one curtain, and ventilation on all sides.

She took all the chicken manure from the dustpan to a manure pit next to the hut, which was used for manure. Shen Yunfang's family does not have a pigsty because her family has a thin population and no labor to raise pigs.
