331 Saturday morning
During breakfast time, Lao Ba usually takes advantage of this opportunity to go to the children's table, and talk to Tao Tao and Haidong Hainan while eating, the main content is to explain the children's activities and safety precautions today, which is his duty as a father and father-in-law.
In addition, I also have to ask the ladies today about the schedule for the children, specifically arrange today's learning courses and extracurricular activities, etc., now the ladies except for Aunt Duna, either lactating or pregnant, can take time out to take care of the children is quite limited, so Lao Ba is much busier than in the past.
Ba Haidong is a very gentle child, while drinking rice porridge in a small sip, while whispering to Tao Tao about yesterday's lesson and who will teach the children today, while Niu Niu, who is five years younger, is restless under the table and plays with his legs, and occasionally interacts with the young children.
After instructing the children at the dinner table, Lao Ba went on to get busy with other things.
Lao Ba is very busy now, at the beginning, everyone took care of Lao Ba and Teacher Zhao's age, if it was not a very tense time period, their usual physical work was only two aspects - helping Sun Lao cook, helping Lao Zhu grazing, of course, in addition to helping Xia Xiaoou do logistics ledger sorting materials and teaching children, among which Teacher Zhao and the doctors often go to the medicinal chemistry laboratory in the cave to engage in product and drug research.
According to Mr. Sun's proposal, Mr. Ba was elected as the vice chairman of the executive committee, and Mr. Sun planned and coordinated the labor arrangement work together. Since the beginning of April, Lao Ba has been drawing a red line on the table every day to indicate the progress of the work project, and arranging a shift list with Mr. Sun, so that everyone has a full understanding of the overall situation of the work.
Just when Lao Ba instructed the children, Wang Xue, who was sitting not far away, also looked back at her daughter on the table with a concerned face, and then nodded and said a few words to Cheng Fangfang and Xu Rou, who were holding babies in their arms, and then picked up their breakfast and hurried to the cave.
As the only member of the mechanical team who doesn't have to work in the field, she has a lot of responsibilities.
The upcoming equipment installation process, technical data research and process finishing of the sugar factory glass factory are actually mainly undertaken by Wang Xue.
There is no way, men are now used as basic labor, although Wang Xue also has a baby, but with Du Na to help take care of it, she can still find time to do these scientific research work.
At this time, outside the gate of the Red Mansion, Lao Ba and Lao Zhu sat in the tractor cab, and there were Wei @ Hong and Ai Rushi in the back compartment, today Ren Ke was in charge of driving, ready to send these people to the Red Wharf, and then they rowed themselves to the pasture, today there is a cow giving birth, Lao Zhu needs help.
According to the arrangement of the children's supervisor, Cheng Fangfang, the children will also come to visit the cow to give birth to the calf.
With the prior arrangement and communication of the executive committee of the executive committee represented by Sun Lao and Lao Ba, as long as there is no special change, everyone basically knows what they will do in the next two or three days, which greatly straightens out everyone's daily work coordination and labor arrangement.
Because early every morning, people only need to look at the progress chart, you can start to get busy, on the surface people seem to be quite chaotic, in fact, everyone has a goal.
Unlike in the past, when people were running around like headless flies, the project leaders were shouting around for people to gather.
Because today is Saturday, according to the convention, although there is no overtime, but it must be rushed, so many people hurriedly drink porridge and eat, and some people still have half of the pancakes in their hands, so they go directly to their jobs - no matter what work they do, it is the discipline here to arrive before eight o'clock, and everyone consciously abides by this rule.
At this time, Kangda bit the pancake fruit in his hand and stood in the small square outside the gate of the Red Mansion, stuffing food in his mouth, vaguely reading the list of things he needed to do with himself today, and then led a few lazy people, laughing and walking towards the direction of the dam construction site.
Xia Xiaoou and Cao Limei's task today is to help the cook, although the two of them already have some nostalgia, but the easier work still has to be done, today, they are going to the Moon River to fish for lobsters, followed by one or two followers---- barrister Li Junming and Zhu Beiguo.
At this time, Li Zhu and the others walked a few steps to the edge of the small square, walked to Captain Gu, who was assigning work to the high school students, and pointed to Xia Xiaoou and Cao Limei, who were not far away, while talking to Captain Gu.
Everyone knows that this is asking Gu Jin for leave, Xia Cao and the others are both pregnant now, although they are not very pregnant, they definitely need to be taken care of, and Li Zhu and the others were originally going to follow the team to work at the glass factory site.
However, Gu Jin waved his hand to Li Zhu and the others indifferently, signaling them to go to his wife to help, so the two immediately ran to the women in three steps and two steps.
The women in the distance smiled and waved at Gu Jin's side, Gu Jin also nodded to the two ladies over there in response, so the crowd in the small square also responded with some whistles and laughter, and under the gaze of everyone, Li Zhu and the others picked up the back basket, fishing rod and schoolbag containing various snacks and followed behind the ladies step by step.
As soon as the four of them walked a few steps, Sun Lao appeared at the gate, holding a large red plastic bucket in his hand, and greeted Li Junming and Zhu Beiguo loudly.
Apparently this big plastic bucket is for fishing, and on Saturdays, as long as there is a lobster fishing job, in fact, it is mainly the two of them who are doing it, and the pregnant ladies are just auxiliaries, and they are also out for a walk.
Lobster is a specialty of the island, and at this stage, there are still a large number of canals and ditches near the Red Mansion, as if it is an inexhaustible resource.
Although the lobster is also delicious, but after eating too much and eating for a long time, there is no previous feeling, in short, the marginal utility of this delicious is gradually decreasing, and now, lobster is indeed a very common dish on the table.
In the eyes of everyone, the real delicacies are crocodiles, snake meat and bird eggs, but unfortunately these three delicacies are completely absent near the Red Mansion.
In more than two years, due to various constructions, various constructions, and of course, burning wasteland to open roads, soil herbicides, etc., the ecological environment near the Red Mansion and on both sides of the lower reaches of the Moon River, including the karst cave, has been completely changed, which makes crocodiles, snakes, and other animals that are very sensitive to the ecological environment extinct in the vicinity.
It is safe to say that there are no crocodiles and snakes in the vicinity of the Red Mansion anymore, and you have to walk a long way to see these animals. As for the eggs, even the birds don't fly, and there are no eggs anywhere.
Therefore, for Sun Lao, the task of improving and enriching the table became a bit daunting.
Since everyone is already a little tired of eating lobster, well, the people who are tired of eating also include Sun Lao himself, but because everyone has no time to go out to sea to fish at the moment, Sun Lao often asks everyone to do a "leisure activity" in their spare time - go to the beach to pick up seafood.
The coastline of this island is still in a pristine state, and there are all kinds of molluscs and shellfish on the beach, including a sea crab, which appears in large numbers on the beach during the dry season, and these days are certainly no exception, so Sun Lao handed Zhu and Li a large plastic bucket, in addition to holding lobsters, another purpose is to let them "pick up the sea".
If it were Sunday, perhaps Sun Lao would have asked everyone to go out en masse to the beach to "pick up the sea", where there were not only crabs and shellfish, but if they were willing to go a little farther, to the mouth of the west bank of the Moon River, where there were oysters near the shallow reefs.
Of course, the easiest to obtain is the big lobster, so every holiday, Sun Lao will always mobilize some people who are not too tired to fish for this silly animal, according to Lao Zhu, shrimp is actually even a cockroach in the sea, there are a lot of them, so in this primitive environment, from any nearby ditch, people can catch a large number of lobsters.
