Chapter 52: Favor

Su Su, who was recorded on the side, had just been amused by Shen Xiaoshan's words, and listened to Shen Xiaoshan's homely introduction, and looked at Shen Xiaoshan with curiosity.

She could feel that this was one of the more special people who signed up today.

This Shen Xiaoshan is not like other interviewers who peek at himself wantonly, his mind is completely devoted to questions and answers.

And as a young man from a farmer's background, he can talk eloquently in the face of such a tense occasion, and such a person is indeed rare in Huluyan.

Su Suming turned his eyes to Feng Jian, and found that Feng Jian's eyes were full of surprise and appreciation, and said in his heart, this Shen Xiaoshan is really amazing, what impresses Feng Jian, and the formation of the night is definitely the most favored.

After thinking about it, he listened to Feng Jian say: "Well, Shen Xiaoshan, your self-presentation performance just now is very good, and now this commander will ask you a few questions, and these questions have three answers, you have to choose from them what you think is correct, do you know......?"

Listening to the fresh words popping out of the commander's mouth, although Shen Xiaoshan couldn't figure it out, he knew that the commander was quite satisfied with his performance, it seemed that he had observed correctly before, and he had made the right bet!

Shen Xiaoshan clenched his sweaty fists and said in his mouth, "Please ask the commander to ask questions." ”

……

"The treatment provided by Huluyan to the soldiers who do not collect at night is the same as that of the soldiers of the Zhenshan Battalion, but they receive one more work per day than the soldiers of the Zhenshan Battalion."

This is said on the notice at the door of the Huluyan Hall, so in the eyes of the cottage households, being selected for the night is even more desirable than being selected for the earthquake camp.

Three days later, Qin Huaibao, a small flag officer who is now a staff officer at the Huluyan Headquarters, went to Shen Xiaoshan's house to report the good news, and Shen Xiaoshan was selected for Huluyan and did not accept it at night.

In fact, Shen Xiaoshan was sure that he would not be accepted by Huluyan at night, because after the interview that day, the commander Feng Jian once patted him on the shoulder and said that he Shen Xiaoshan was a natural spy, and Huluyan needed a talent like him if he did not accept it at night.

Although he didn't know what "spy" meant, the commander's admiring gaze had already told him that his selection was a foregone conclusion.

Hearing that Shen Xiaoshan was selected for Huluyan and did not accept it at night, the entire A post suddenly became jubilant, only 50 people from the cottage of more than 4,000 people were selected for the night, and only Shen Xiaoshan was selected for the more than 500 people of the Jia Whistle.

This is not only the glory of Shen Xiaoshan's family, but even the rest of the Zhuang people in Jiashao also feel the light on their faces.

The neighbors who heard the news came to the Shen family to congratulate one after another, and for a while, the Shen family's small house was crowded with congratulatory people.

Shen Xiaoshan's mother and little sister were filled with happy smiles on their faces, Shen's mother invited the incense burner offerings for the New Year's sacrifice, placed them on the wooden table in the hall, lit incense candles, and the family of three bowed to thank the ancestors for their blessings in the heavens.

After Shen's mother turned around and greeted the neighbors who came to congratulate, the neighbor Wang family's mother-in-law complimented Shen Xiaoshan's mother-in-law and said: "The old woman said hello to the old sister, Xiaoshan's child will not be accepted at night, and you girls will be happy in the future." ”

Another mother-in-law next to him said: "Yes, I have long seen that Xiaoshan's child is promising, and this is not all of a sudden selected for the night not to be collected, my wife heard that this night is not accepted after the commander's personal guard, and in the future, if there is something to do, you have to let your Xiaoshan help a little more." ”

Listening to the constant compliments from the neighbors left and right, Shen Xiaoshanniang smiled happily and said with a smile: "Hehe, Xiaoshan, this kid doesn't have any ability, this is the conductor's kindness to be selected for the night, and the neighbors who can help will definitely not shirk." ”

Shen Xiaomei stood aside and looked at the slightly flattering mother-in-law of the Wang family, and despised in her heart: "Now that I see my brother being selected, I change my mind at night, and I don't know who Ping said is always secretly laughing at my brother for sneaking and playing tricks and not doing his job......"

Another mother-in-law said enviously: "I heard that I don't accept it at night, I earn an extra job a day, and if I have more work, I will go to the mutual aid association trading field to exchange for meat and eggs, but in the future, your meat and eggs will not be available!" ”

Shen's mother smiled: "Hey, eighty Niang, don't be dissatisfied, your Yang Eighty doesn't earn work in Zhenshan Camp, and your family can't cut off meat and eggs!" ”

Yang Eighty Niang raised her head and said, "That's it, my family is eighty filial!" Well, your Xiaoshan is also a filial child! ”

Huluyan cottage villagers have one work point for one day of labor in the mutual aid association, and one work point can be exchanged for two eggs or one or two fresh meat in the cottage mutual aid association, which is very attractive to the villagers who are accustomed to hard work.

Shen Xiaoshan stood quietly aside, smiling and listening to the compliments of the neighbor next door, but his mind didn't know where to fly.

When I was wandering, I suddenly noticed that the neighbors who had come to congratulate me in the house suddenly fell silent.

Then my mother exclaimed in astonishment, "Ah, ...... Commander! He turned around and shouted at Shen Xiaoshan: "Shan'er, Shan'er, the commander has come to my house!" ”

shouted Shen Xiaoshan, pulled Shen Xiaomei and greeted Feng Jian who stepped into the door in a restrained manner.

Feng Jian smiled with a smile on his face: "Aunt Shen doesn't need to be nervous, this commander also has something to pass by, by the way, come and see Shen Xiaoshan, congratulations to your old man, Xiaoshan will be an excellent night in Huluyan." ”

Xiaoshan Niang was still a little nervous, and said: "That's still the commander who can afford him, and my family Xiaoshan is blessed to follow the commander, thank you, my wife...... Thank you......" said and was about to kneel down and salute Feng Jian.

Feng Jian hurriedly hugged Xiaoshan Niang and said: "Auntie, you must not accept it at night, it is Xiaoshan's own ability not to accept it." As he spoke, he said to Shen Xiaoshan on the side: "Xiaoshan, come over and hold the eldest lady." ”

Shen Xiaoshan's eyes on the side rolled, he didn't go to support his mother, but knelt down and kowtowed to Feng Zhen, and said: "The villain has thanked the commander for his kindness on behalf of his mother here, and Xiaoshan is willing to follow the commander for a good night." ”

Feng Jian couldn't cry or laugh, holding Shen's mother here, Shen Xiaoshan knelt down and saluted, and it was not good to immediately let go of Shen's mother's support, so he had to say: "Xiaoshan, get up and talk quickly!" ”

Seeing that Shen Xiaoshan stood up along with the words, he continued in a pleasant tone: "You have the best evaluation among the candidates who are not included in the night, congratulations here!" ”

Shen Xiaoshan bent down slightly and said: "They are all loved by the commander, and I will follow the commander in the future, and I will be the commander for the rest of my life." As he spoke, he peeked at Feng Jian's expression.

In the blink of an eye, he saw Feng Jian smiling and looking happy, and secretly said in his heart that he couldn't wear a thousand sycophants, and it seemed that the commander also ate this set.

Seeing that his mother, little sister and all the neighbors were standing aside, they were a little restrained, so Shen Xiaoshan said, "Commander, please take a seat." ”

He shouted to the little sister who was standing on the side: "Little sister, go to the back room to make a bowl of honey water and bring it to the commander." ”

Shen Xiaomei quickly ran to the back room in response, and Feng Jian said, "Aunt Shen, sit down first." Then he said to the people around him: "All the neighbors should also find a place to sit down." ”

After speaking, he said to Shen Xiaoshan's mother: "Auntie, after Xiaoshan is selected for the night, he will start intensive training, and he may not often be filial to you at home, and he still needs you to bear more!" ”

Shen Xiaoshan's mother said: "It is a blessing for our whole family that the commander can take a fancy to Xiaoshan, the old woman... I am very happy, and in the future, my family Xiaoshan will follow the commander, and everything is decided by the commander for slaves and servants. ”

Feng Jian laughed and said: "Auntie, what you said is too serious, in the future, they will be strictly trained if they don't collect Xiaoshan at night, but they will never be treated as slaves, of course, the soldiers of the Zhenshan Battalion are no exception." ”

Feng Jian still retains the concept of later generations, but he doesn't want Shen's mother and Shen Xiaoshan to show disappointment after hearing this, in their opinion, Feng Jian does not accept Shen Xiaoshan's refuge.

Feng Jian didn't think of this, he smiled and looked for a relaxed topic and said, "Auntie, your family is a family of three, right?" ”

The mother didn't know what Feng Jian meant, so she nodded blankly.

Feng Jian said: "Xiaoshan is selected and will not be collected at night, and there will be more than 60 work points every month in the future, and the work points are needless to say, everyone knows that they can be exchanged for grain, meat, poultry eggs and other daily necessities in the Huluyan Mutual Aid Association." Calculate Xiaoshan's monthly work and exchange it for more than two stone of coarse grain at the mutual aid association. Xiaoshan eats and wears for free in the barracks, and only you and Xiaoshan's sister and mother eat at home, and there must be a surplus of food every month, and I see that the surplus food in your family can be deposited into the mutual aid association. ”

Seeing that everyone had doubts on their faces, he explained with a smile: "There is a good news that everyone may not know yet, our cottage mutual aid association has just issued new regulations: cottage households, all cottage households, all cottage households can directly deposit the surplus grain storage of the Huluyan Mutual Aid Association, and the grain storage of each household grain deposit mutual aid association will pay a bucket of grain profits for one stone of grain a year. That is to say, after one year, the granary of the One Stone Grain Mutual Aid Association will become one stone and one bucket, and the more grain profits will be paid for the storage, and there is no upper limit. In addition, during the period of the grain storage and mutual aid association of each household, if the depositor's family suddenly needs food, he can take back his own grain at any time. ”
