At noon, Zheng Cheng returned home with a cow with a few farm tools, a new home in Liaodong to be exact. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Farm tools and cattle are all early in the morning under the leadership of the village to the county seat of the county warehouse to collect, the county seat is twenty miles away from here under the lonely mountain.

At the end of last year, Zheng Cheng, who couldn't survive in his hometown after two years of natural disasters, took his wife and son to flee east after giving a pair of twin daughters to be adopted by Xiaoyao in Huayin County.

In desperation, he joined the Anton Pioneer Group with a large number of displaced people who had fled the famine, and was transported by sea ship to Liaodong, where he now lives, with four or five thousand people half a month ago.

Zheng Cheng's current place of residence is said to be said to be the Andong Metropolitan Protector - Wucheng Prefecture Governor's Mansion under the Daxing Prefecture Gushan County, which belongs to Xishan Township and is named after a mountain in the west of the county. Zheng Cheng's village is located at the foot of the West Mountain, except for the gradually rising mountains in the north, the southeast is a flat and open plain, and the rivers originating from the mountains in the north are criss-crossed, with abundant water and grass, and fertile fields.

Gushan County resettled 3,000 households and more than 11,000 people, and in addition to the county seat, it was divided into two townships, East and West Mountain.

There are more than 3,000 people in Xishan Township, and more than 500 people in Zheng Cheng's village, and the origin of the villagers is more complicated, that is, people from Zhonghua, Tongzhou, Youyuehedong, Henan and other places.

The village is the one who can read and write and has good moral character. I heard that the term of office of the village is only five years, and after five years, the whole village will elect a new village leader.

The land policy of the Metropolitan Protectorate is 150 acres of land for adult men, 100 acres for adult women, and 50 acres for both men and women.

Zheng Cheng's family of three immigrated here, and the government set aside a 300 acres of wasteland for his family according to the order. According to the decree of the Metropolitan Protectorate, as long as his family has been cultivating for three years, he can apply for the title deed at the county office, and this land will always belong to his Zheng family.

"Daddy's back." Zheng Cheng's three-year-old son happily ran out of the house.

When the wife who had cooked the rice saw her husband coming back, she hurriedly stepped forward to help her husband unload the farm tools from the cow and put them in the house.

Zheng Cheng's Xishan Township was lucky, because there was originally a village where they settled, but during the Tang and Goguryeo wars, the local people fled and left a large number of houses, and they immigrants only needed to repair them to move in.

Like other migrant villages, they can only live in military tents first, and receive the wood that the government used to cut and pile up to build their own houses. The immigrants built a shack first, and it was not possible to build a better house in two or three months.

Zheng Cheng's family of three was eating light meals around the simple table and stools, which Zheng Cheng had taken the time to make in the past few days, otherwise the whole family would either squat or sit on the firewood to eat.

Since the immigrants to Anton had nothing, the Anton Metropolitan Protectorate can be said to be heartbroken. Even hundreds of thousands of pottery bowls and iron pots were urgently fired, but the cast iron city and kilns that Li Yu had built in Andong one by one last year were busy dying.

The clay bowls, iron pots, and pre-harvest grain needed by the immigrants were all rationed free of charge by the Imperial Protectorate, which made Li Yu take a lot of blood, and the finances seemed to be tight.

Zhang suddenly choked up while eating: "If only Min Niang and Lin Niang hadn't been sent away." Not only can our family get an extra 100 acres of land, but they don't have to be cattle and horses in a big family, maybe they will die one day. Woohoo......"

"What do you know as a woman?" Zheng Cheng said in a sullen voice, thinking of the second daughter who was sent away, and he was also very sad in his heart.

"At the beginning, the family couldn't live happily and wanted to go out to flee the famine, what is the fate of the little girl on the way to escape the famine, don't you know, with Min Niang and Lin Niang, didn't it hurt them?"

"But aren't our family good?" Zhang cried.

Zheng Cheng was not happy about his wife's complaints, and put the bowl on the table and said in a deep voice: "How did you know that there was an Anton Pioneer Group recruiting people, and when you came to Anton not only to have food but also to share the field." What's more, when I signed up, I didn't know if this Anton Pioneer Group had deceived people into being slaves for the rest of their lives, so they just held on to a rotten life and begged for a way out. Min Niang and Lin Niang were given to large families, no matter how you say it, it can be regarded as a way to live. ”

"You don't have to worry too much about Min Niang and Lin Niang, I also asked a lot about the adoption of young boys and girls by Xiaoyao drunk along the way. Drunkenness is an industry under the command of Li Yu, the current protector of Andong Capital, and the adopted boys and girls have been sent to Pyongyang, as for what exactly to do, I can't find out. It's just that today in the county warehouse, I heard from the people in the county government that there are several pairs of beautiful twins in the Yanwang Mansion, all of which were sent by the various commercial houses of the Yanwang Mansion at the end of last year, which were drunk and Mingyuexuan, and often accompanied the Yanwang Mansion. Min Niang and Lin Niang have been beautiful and cute since they were children, but they haven't eaten well in the past two years and don't look as good as before, but the beauty embryo is still there, and it can be recovered under good birth. Presumably, Min Niang and Lin Niang are in the palace of King Yan in Pyongyang. ”

"Then can we go to the Yanwang Mansion in Pyongyang to inquire about how Minniang and Linniang are doing?"

"If Min Niang and Lin Niang are really in the Yanwang Mansion, they are just maids, and they have no status. How could the soldiers guarding the gate of the Yanwang Mansion let me wait for the flat-headed little people to meet the two maids? Hey, I used to hear those scholars say that when a woman enters the high gate, it is as deep as the sea. I'm afraid it's hard to see Min Niang and Lin Niang in this life! Zheng Cheng sighed worriedly.

"Woo......"

"Daddy, I miss my sister." Zheng Cheng's youngest son thought of the two sisters who left, and cried with his mother in tears.

"Hey!" Zheng Cheng just sighed helplessly, just hoping that the two daughters would be more beautiful if they were in the Yanwang Mansion, and that they would be slim and slim in the future, maybe they could become the concubines of the Yanwang Palace, and they might meet in the future.

"Zheng Cheng, the village is gathering the whole village to open up the wasteland."

Wang Liang, a neighbor from Hedong, resisted the hoe with two and a half children, and led the ox that had just been brought home and shouted outside the courtyard.

"Here we are."

Zheng Cheng finished eating the rice in the bowl a few times, and said to the two mothers: "Hurry up and eat and follow me to the field, the government is in a hurry for spring ploughing, and wants all villages and households to plant grain at the end of the month." ”

Zheng Cheng ran to clean up the farm tools, and Zhang urged his son to eat the meal, clean up the dishes and chopsticks, and lead his son to help her husband.

Just after noon, all the men, women and children of the village, under the urging of the village leader, resisted the hoe and drove the ploughing cattle down the field.

There are 100 households in Bing Village, Xishan Township, but there are only 20 ploughs that can be distributed, which can only meet the needs of 20 households at the same time, and can only be used by one household in turn, and the remaining 80 households are not allowed to put their own cattle in the field and prepare the land with hoes first.

Because the plough is not enough for each household, all the plows issued by the government to each village are the public property of the village, and the village is responsible for it, and the whole village supervises. Because of the shortage of ploughs, the village first distributed 20 plows to households with large populations and then to other households, so as to increase the speed of cultivating land.

Zheng Cheng's family was not the first batch of households in the village to use a plow because of the small number of mouths and the slow speed of plowing the land, so they could only dig the ground with their wives with hoes.
