Chapter 84: The Charm of Mahjong

In the end, Tong Chuxue picked a large stack of scripts, while Luo Hui'an picked some history books that Tong Chuxue was not interested in. As for Luo Huiqing, even though the little girl was forced by her brother to recognize some words, she still had no enthusiasm for reading books in her bones.

The three of them walked around the county seat, carrying a lot of things in their hands, and happily returned to Qingshan Village.

In fact, Tong Chuxue, who returned to the village, entered a very busy state. During this time, under the management of Tong Shan, the excavation of the entire canal went very smoothly, and Tong Chuxue also screened a team of twenty people with the help of Tong Shan.

When the construction of the canal was understood, Tong Chuxue was ready to start promoting the transformation of greenhouses and paddy fields.

Originally, this matter should have been supervised by Tong Chuxue herself, but after thinking about it for a few days, she decided to let Luo Changhua take charge of this matter.

In order to follow him to plant Ganoderma lucidum, the Luo family did not hesitate to divide the family, so bold, Luo Changhua must have the opportunity to make a career.

And with her ability, she has a lot of room to show in the future, if she has to watch every business herself, then she can't keep ten heads busy, so it's better to train her own people early.

When Tong Chuxue told Luo Changhua about this, Luo Changhua's eyes were clearly eager to try, but on the surface, he still said a few words to Tong Chuxue.

However, he yearned in his heart, even if he verbally excused himself, he was persuaded by Tong Chuxue a few words, so he no longer insisted and took on this burden.

Luo Changhua divided the 20 people selected by Tong Chuxue into two teams of equal numbers, of which 10 people with simple families and honest people were responsible for the construction of greenhouses, and the rest were responsible for the transformation of paddy fields.

Tong Chuxue saw that Luo Changhua's arrangement was only orderly and quite orderly, so she put her mind at ease.

Next, if there is a suitable opportunity, she can also start to cultivate Liu Fen, compared to Luo Changhua, Liu Fen can almost be said to be alone, her only daughter has been married, and she has no burden.

And from the fact that Liu Fen dared to sell the field at the beginning, and followed her to do things when no one was optimistic and she was not familiar with Tong Chuxue, it can be seen that she is a courageous woman.

Perhaps years of widowhood have made her heart much stronger.

After just half a month, the greenhouses and paddy fields were built, and every household in Qingshan Village changed into cotton jackets, and winter came.

Tong Chuxue's small house was renovated from the old house that he bought from Li Zheng, although it was also reinforced, but the inside was still not warm enough, and it was the same cold indoors and outdoors when the door was closed.

Speaking of which, Tong Chuxue felt that the climate of this place was very strange, generally speaking, where the summer time is long, the winter should not be very cold, but I heard Xu Jinniang say that it will snow in winter here.

There is only one dirt road leading from the village to the town, and once the snow falls and the road freezes, everyone can only stay in the village, and they can't go.

In winter, a person who does not pay attention is easy to get sick, there is a barefoot Langzhong in the village, that is, a half-hanger, everyone has a headache and brain fever like to look for him, and every year when winter comes, the barefoot doctor and Li Zheng will prepare some medicinal materials in advance in case someone in the village gets sick.

And each family will also prepare some charcoal at home before the heavy snow comes, and make a fire to keep warm.

However, some of the charcoal used by farmers is burned by themselves, and the smoke is heavy, and the effect is not particularly good, but it is better than nothing.

Tong Chuxue also prepared some charcoal at home at Xu Jinniang's suggestion. However, she had money in her hand, and she didn't treat herself badly at all, so she went directly to the trading house in the town and bought back ten baskets of fruit charcoal.

It is said that this kind of charcoal has its own fragrance when burned, and it almost does not produce smoke, so it is often prepared by large households.

In fact, Tong Chuxue doesn't know much about these things, but she is willing to do it, and the rich and noble people will definitely not be wrong.

She not only prepared it for her own home, but also sent two large baskets to Luo Hui'an's house.

When the two baskets of carbon were delivered to the Luo family, the eyes of the big and second rooms of the Luo family were straight, staring at the charcoal fire.

At present, everyone is still living under one roof, and Luo Changhua immediately sent a basket to Mrs. Luo. As for the big house and the second room, it has nothing to do with them, it is natural for him to honor his mother, but there is no need to help his brothers for the time being.

However, the big room and the second room still got a little bit from Mrs. Luo's soft grinding and hard bubbles.

The weather is getting colder and colder, and the women who used to chat at the entrance of the village every day are now reluctant to go out unless necessary.

Tong Chuxue lit a charcoal basin at home and listened carefully to Luo Hui'an's lecture.

That's right, lecture, before Xu Jinniang, their literacy course was delayed for a while because of the canal and greenhouse, she thought that now that the temperature is cold, everyone has nothing to do, but then the previous course.

In this regard, Luo Changhua also agrees. Originally, they still felt a little embarrassed to learn to read and write from scratch like a child, but since they were responsible for managing workers some time ago, Luo Changhua recorded the attendance of workers on paper every day, and the eyes of everyone on the construction site who looked at Luo Changhua have changed dramatically, and the envy and admiration in their eyes cannot be hidden.

I actually realized the benefits, and several people were more motivated to learn.

Speaking of classes, I have to mention the textbooks that Tong Chuxue chose for several people. At the beginning, she carefully selected the content related to basic business and reading in many books in the county bookstore, which was plot-based and practical, and everyone was very fascinated by learning.

Of course, adults learn mainly for the purpose of recognizing and writing, and do not need to do any articles, so the course is only offered in the morning and half a day.

What to do in the middle of the afternoon, Tong Chuxue squatted at home, thought for a long time, and after skimming a few thick bamboos piled up in the corner, Tong Chuxue suddenly came to inspiration - mahjong.

As one of the unofficial "quintessences" of the world in the past, even in the last days, people who like to play mahjong will still use their spare time to play, and it can be said that their love for mahjong is deep in the bone marrow.

"Uncle, come and do me a favor." Tong Chuxue directly pulled Luo Changhua over to help.

The bamboo is sawn into small squares and then carved with a carving knife on it. Luo Changhua wrapped up the work of handling the bamboo, and the work of lettering was taken by Luo Hui'an.

Tong Chuxue was originally worried that this would affect Luo Hui'an's preparation, but Luo Hui'an bluntly said that it had no effect, so she didn't say anything more.

After everything was ready, everyone's eyes were focused on Tong Chuxue, after all, they had lived for so many years and had never heard of mahjong.

"Ahem,Actually, mahjong is a game that will be addictive when you play it,Specifically,You can look at these cards in my hand......"

Tong Chuxue began to explain the rules of mahjong to everyone.
