Chapter 248: Woke up from a dream

When it was another year's autumn harvest, the people in the areas ruled by the People's Army greeted the autumn harvest with a smile on their faces, and this was probably the second autumn harvest in their lives that they were so happy, the first one was last year.

In Wangshan Village, Sihui County, Zhaoqing City, Li Er looked at the crops that were about to be harvested in the field, and his face was full of wrinkles with a smile.

Last year was the first year that Li Er's family got their own farmland, and when they received it in the first autumn, Li Er was also very happy, and after harvesting the grain, Li Er and his wife discussed for several days, thinking about selling part of the grain and buying some things back.

However, Li Er is a little worried about the People's Army, Li Er is a low-level common man who can't read a single word, and he doesn't know what the emperor is not an emperor, but he knows that the official mansion has existed for so many years, and Li Er is worried that the official government will come back and snatch the land in his hands.

In this case, Li Er didn't dare to sell too much of the harvested grain, and stored more grain in case of accidents.

A year has passed in the blink of an eye, and the worries in Li Er's heart have been greatly reduced.

There is a lot of rain this year, but the People's Army has built water conservancy facilities in various places, and the common people who have more free time are also digging ditches in the fields, so that Li Erjia still has a good harvest this year, which is slightly worse than last year, and it can be regarded as a bumper year.

Li Er took the whole family to harvest food together, and when he was busy, Li Er and his wife were already discussing what to do with the grain harvested this year.

The harvested grain must be enough for the family's rations, and the rest of the grain should be sold, and then buy some cloth to go home, as well as some fish and meat.

After the autumn harvest last year, there are many people in Wangshan Village who repair their houses or even new houses, and after the autumn harvest this year, Li Er also plans to repair his own house, and after the autumn harvest next year, he can build a new house in his yard, two adults and two children are crammed into one room It is really a little crowded, Li Er also wants his wife to have a few more children.

The more children the better, as long as he can afford it, Li Er hopes to have more children, he is just a farmer, but Li Er thinks that if there is a big official among his children, then the old Li family can prosper.

The chance of a child becoming a talent is small, and the more children there are, the probability of becoming a talent also increases.

Most of the men in Wangshan Village have the same idea as Li Er, the family will have more children if they can eat enough, hoping that the next generation can become talented and glorify their ancestors.

If under the rule of the Ming court, the people of Wangshan Village almost do not have their own land, everyone can only rent the landlord's land for a living, live a hungry and full life, in this case, no one dares to have more children, more children will starve to death, may just give birth to a child will drown directly, poor families can not afford too many children.

The poor life has just passed more than a year, Li Er's family has only welcomed the arrival of two autumn harvests, every harvest Li Er and his wife are smiling, but in the previous harvest years with bitterness in the smile, it is a bumper harvest, most of the grain has to be handed over to the landlord and the government, and the remaining food is simply not enough for the family to eat for a year.

Fortunately, the poor days have come to an end, and the arrival of two consecutive farmlands after owning his own farmland has given birth to many plans in Li Er's mind, among which the two most important plans are to open up more farmland and have more children.

The People's Army has said that every five years the fields will be redivided, and the number of adults and children in the family will be divided, and the more people there are, the more fields will be obtained, and the number of children will not be afraid of starvation.

However, the land is limited, but the population can continue to increase, and eventually there will be a situation where the land is not enough, Fang Nan has already prepared to encourage the development of wasteland, and with the development of industry, the factory needs a large number of workers, and the population is transferred to the city, so they no longer own land, alleviating the problem of limited land, and so on.

The good days have come, Li Er and his wife have not forgotten that this good day was brought by the People's Army, and since this year, Li Er has one more mantra, and when talking about many things, Li Er will say "thank you to the People's Army".

"Thanks to the People's Army, we can have our own land."

"Thanks to the People's Army, we are now able to eat enough."

"Thanks to the People's Army, we don't have to be bullied by the landlord and his dogs anymore."

……

After the autumn harvest, many ordinary people took out part of their own harvest and sent it to the People's Army, supporting the People's Army with their own practical actions, hoping that the People's Army would be able to block or defeat the Ming Army, so that they would not return to the hard days of the past.

Li Er also took out some of the grain he had harvested and sent it to the People's Army with his fellow villagers.

Every time the news of the People's Army's defeat of the Ming Army reached Wangshan Village, Li Er and the villagers of Wangshan Village were very excited, they were ordinary people who couldn't read a single word, but they knew that everything they got today was brought by the People's Army, they had been bound to the People's Army, and they hoped to win forever.

There are many young people in Wangshan Village who join the People's Army, Li Er is no longer young, and there are wives and children, Li Er will not join the People's Army, Li Er thinks, when his eldest son grows up, he will send his eldest son to join the People's Army, to add strength to the People's Army's defeat of the Ming Army, and also to find a way for the eldest son to progress.

The autumn harvest is over, and now Li Er's favorite thing is to sit next to the harvested grain, look at the bags of grain, smell the taste of the grain, and a sense of satisfaction arises spontaneously.

So much food, before the People's Army, they never had it, but now they can have it, and they may be able to harvest more grain every autumn harvest in the future, Li Er likes this feeling.

"Do you want to send food to the People's Army this year?" Suddenly, Li Er thought of a question.

Not only Li Er thought about this problem, but the people of Wangshan Village thought about this matter, and many people thought about continuing to send food to the People's Army, but before they could start to act, the matter was stopped, and the People's Army Government was also worried that the people would send food again, so they notified the village chiefs of each village and asked them to stop the people from sending food to the People's Army.

The People's Army is not short of food, and the delivery of food by ordinary people to the People's Army Government will affect the progress of the People's Army's affairs.

Unable to send food to the People's Army, Li Er and the other ordinary people did not know how to support the People's Army.

The days will go on, the grain harvest for two consecutive years makes Li Er feel that his life will get better and better, two years ago Li Er never thought that he would be able to live a good life one day, it feels like a dream.

I woke up from the dream, and everything that happened turned out to be real.
