After handing over the public grain and sowing the winter wheat, the villagers were basically idle. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The weather is getting colder and colder, and the pace of the New Year is getting closer and closer.

This year, under the vague proposal of early summer, the village chief threw off his arms and led the people of the village to do a job, raising more than 300 pigs alone, not to mention chickens and ducks.

Of course, so many pigs, chickens and ducks must not be fed with food, otherwise there will not be enough food to eat. At the suggestion of early summer, the village chief built a farm in the middle of the mountainside, and specially found a few old people who couldn't earn centimeters to watch free-range breeding, not to mention, it was bigger and faster than the previous food feeder, of course, this is indispensable to secretly feed them space water in early summer.

At the beginning of December, the village chief led the great hero of early summer to the farm, walked around, and asked proudly: "Early summer, what's the matter, our farm is not enough." ”

Looking at the village chief with a smug face, Chu Xia gave him a thumbs up, "Yes, I just mentioned it, I didn't expect the village chief to make it impressive, our village must have increased a lot of income this year." ”

"That's not it," the village chief frowned even more at the mention of this, "During this period of time, I have made a lot of money just by selling chickens, ducks and eggs, plus these pigs that have not been sold, the family will have an extra income of fifty or sixty yuan." "Don't underestimate these fifty or sixty, in that era, it was equivalent to more than half a year's income for a family.

Chu Xia smiled, "Then we're going to have a big fat year this year." ”

"Well, after working hard for most of my life, I feel that this year is my happiest year, the babies have gone to school, and the village has added new income, and I can wake up with a smile in my dreams now." The village chief looked at the pigs arching back and forth in the pigsty, and his eyes smiled like a slit.

Looking at the village chief who smiled and squinted because of this little thing, Chu Xia sighed in his heart: It's so easy to be satisfied!

With a hot breath, Chu Xia glanced at the big fat pig with at least more than three hundred catties, and asked: "Village chief, when will you sell the pig, it's almost the New Year, and if you don't sell it, it's too late." ”

"I also want to sell it as soon as possible, the key is how to transport it down the mountain, the road we go down the mountain is difficult to walk, and the board car is not enough, in early summer, you have a good brain, you give me a way, you don't know, I have been so worried that I can't sleep these two days." Contrary to the smiling face just now, the village chief has now become a bitter gourd face.

In early summer, it was also a little difficult, the traffic was indeed a problem, and she didn't come up with any good way, so she had to ask hard: "Village chief, how did you transport you down the mountain before?" ”

"In the past, we didn't feed much, and we used ox carts to transport them down one by one."

"There are so many, if you use an ox cart, it will not be transported to the Year of the Monkey." This was originally proposed in early summer, and if it couldn't be sold because it couldn't be shipped, it would be a big deal. It would be nice if I could use the space to sneak it down, but the problem is that I can't explain it.

Seeing that Chu Xia was also sad, after all, the village chief was old and had experienced a lot of things, so he turned around and comforted: "Don't worry, there will always be a way." ”

In the early summer when he returned home, because he was pretending to have something in his heart, he was a little absent-minded about what he was doing, Dabao looked at his mother who was holding chopsticks for the Nth time, sighed like a little adult, pulled her sleeve, and asked with certainty: "Mom, you have something on your mind." ”

"No, it's just that I'm a little worried about how to transport the pigs in the village and sell them." Chu Xia, who came back to his senses, said with a frown.

When Dabao heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that it was a big deal, he thought about it and suggested: "Mom, why don't you go down the mountain and ask the acquisition station first to see if they can solve it." ”

"Well, that's not a bad idea." Fist punching with both hands, Hatsu said approvingly.

"Without further ado, I'll go to the village chief's house and talk to him to see if it's feasible." I didn't finish the meal, put down the chopsticks, and ran away in early summer.

The people at the table were dumbfounded, and they were leaving?

Talking to the village chief about this, although it may not be possible, it is better than sitting at home and waiting for death, so the village chief agreed, and made an appointment to go to the town's acquisition station tomorrow to inquire.

At five o'clock the next day, early summer was already up. I drank a bowl of rice porridge, ate half of the corn tortillas, wiped my mouth, took the small backpack I sewed, and went out.

'Squeak' opened the door, and saw the village chief and the village chief's eldest son Zhang Guoqing stomping their feet by the door in the cold. Chu Xia hurriedly asked: "Village chief, National Day, why don't you call the door, how cold is it outside." ”

"It's okay, it's too early, I'm afraid I'll make others sleep." The village chief rubbed his hands and said with a smile.

"Have you eaten then? If you don't have it, go to my house and eat some. "The weather is so cold, I don't know how to drink some hot, and the mountain road will definitely be unbearable.

"No, okay" Without waiting for the village chief to reply, Zhang Guoqing said first.

Glaring at his unceremonious son, the village chief lied without changing his face: "Don't listen to his nonsense, we've all eaten." ”

Zhang Guoqing pouted, his father just wanted to save face and suffer from it.

The words of the two of them, of course, could be distinguished in the early summer who was lying, so without saying a word, he pulled the village chief and walked inside, shouting as he walked: "Mother, the village chief is here." ”

The old lady who was cleaning up in the kitchen heard the shout, and quickly wiped her hands and ran out, greeting warmly, "Village Chief, come into the house on National Day and warm up." ”

"Mother, is there anything left over from the rice? Village chief: They haven't yet. Hatsu asked.

"Yes, it's all warm in the pot, wait, I'll serve it to you." After speaking, he took the village chief and Zhang Guoqing's arms and walked to the kitchen.

"Forget it, we'll go to town and eat later." The village chief refused.

"How expensive is the town, and I still need food stamps, why don't you think my food is good?" The old lady was a little unhappy when she saw that the village chief was so polite

Zhang Guoqing touched his shriveled stomach and said impatiently, "Dad, I'm almost hungry, let's eat at the third grandmother's house first." ”

Glaring at his foodie son, the village chief reluctantly agreed, "Okay." ”

It was indeed hungry, the village chief and Zhang Guoqing devoured it for a while, and ate all the dry food of the early summer family for a day.

The village elder blushed and coughed lightly, "Third aunt, I'll ask her mother to bring you some food in a while." "I know that there are few people in the early summer family who earn centimeters, and the food they share is not enough to eat, so I say this again.

The old lady waved her hand and said indifferently: "What to send, you have a meal at my house and still need food, so what has become of my family?" ”

The village chief didn't say anything more, just thinking that when he went home, he had to send some to his mother-in-law.

There was an extra Zhang Guoqing in the car, and in order to avoid suspicion, the old lady was finally pulled away in early summer.
