On that day, the three of them were really tired from a day, and it was not easy to plant 6,000 sweet potato seedlings on the flat land of the canyon.

Corn and pumpkins were also planted.

Next, Qiao Mu discussed with them again, and agreed to take a day off and then continue planting, and she went to find a way to find a way to plant sweet potato seedlings, although Qiao Fuhua felt a little strange, strange where Qiao Mu got so many sweet potato seedlings, but in the end he still didn't ask, anyway, this is something that is good for their village, why bother to get to the bottom of it.

So, for the next two weeks, they were really tired for two weeks, and every other day they had to go to the canyon on the mountain, as well as some hidden places in the two mountains to plant thousands of sweet potato plants, and by the end of the two weeks, they had planted a whole 100,000 sweet potato seedlings on the mountain.

Among them, 60,000 are planted in the flat land in the canyon, and the remaining 40,000 are scattered and planted in some hidden corners of the two mountains, the 60,000 plants are the ones they want to focus on, and the remaining 40,000 are scattered because they are scattered, and they really can't take care of them if they want to, and they don't have so much energy and time, so they can only let those seedlings resign themselves to fate.

After planting the last sweet potato seedling, the three of them sat down on an oval stone with some fatigue, looked at the sweet potato seedlings all over the ground, and smiled:

"Lady, you're right!

There has been no rain in this half a month, the ground has been very dry, this season's food is estimated to be really hanging, the canteen was completely emptied two days ago, there was no food, it could only be disbanded, and everyone now has no strength to water!

We are also thanks to you for bringing us a few sweet potatoes every day, otherwise it is estimated that we will not have the strength to plant these sweet potato seedlings, these will be life-saving food in two or three months, and our whole village will have to remember your credit, which is a great merit! ”

"I'm not afraid of 10,000, just in case.

By the way, didn't you discuss some time ago that you would apply for relief from above? What is the result of the application? I don't think I got it! ”

Qiao Mu said a few words modestly, and then asked about the things that the villagers are most concerned about now, everyone is really about to eat grass roots at this time, so it is inevitable that the captain of the village can apply to the commune for some relief, and many villagers have been standing at the head of the village in the past two days, waiting to hear some good news.

"Woman, you're still smart!

I didn't apply, but the captain didn't dare to say it, for fear that everyone would be more desperate if there was no hope, and the commune said that there was a shortage of food in many places this year, and let us take good care of the grain in the field, and we had to pay the grain tax this year.

I don't know how much it will be reported!

In Wangjia Village next door, I heard that people have begun to starve to death, and this god really doesn't give people a way to live. ”

As he spoke, Qiao Fuhua's voice couldn't help but become low, and there was a faint sadness in his tone, I don't know if it was for the villagers, or for the person who starved to death in Wangjia Village next door.

After all, the lips are dead and the teeth are cold!

"How much does it have to do with God?

It's not that you haven't seen how lazy the people in our village are this year, and now the water in the river is not dry, but you see a few people going to fetch water to water the fields, and everyone is waiting for those places with a yield of tens of thousands of catties per mu to allocate relief grain!

At present, this completely fair system will not last long, and it is estimated that it will have to be changed sooner or later, otherwise there are still few people who are willing to work hard to farm.

Anyway, it's like that if you don't plant it, it's like that!

Forget it, don't talk about this, when reporting grain production this year, we must not learn from other villages to report more, the yield per mu is how much, if we report more, just this year's grain output, our village will starve to death! ”

After Qiao Mu heard Qiao Fuhua say that God doesn't give people a way to live, he couldn't help but retort.

In the first half of this year, the people in the village have not planted the fields with much peace of mind, almost all of them are perfunctory and sloppy planting, not to mention the dry weather this year, even if there is no dry weather, this kind of field attitude can not harvest much grain.

"That's what you said, ma'am!

But we can't do anything about the above policy, so we can only follow the above policy.

However, this year, it is true that we can no longer continue to overreport grain production, and we will be removed from our posts, as long as we can let everyone live, it is worth the dismissal!

I'll have to convince the captain in a while!

This time, you can't compete for excellence anymore, this kind of excellence that takes people's lives to fill in, don't do it.

Alright, ma'am, it's almost time to rest, let's go down the mountain, it will be dark later! ”

Qiao Fuhua responded with two sentences, looked at the sky again, and said that he was going down the mountain now.

The arbor doesn't matter, it naturally follows.

She had just come down the mountain, and when she hadn't returned home, she saw a person knocking on the door with a bamboo basket at the door.

hurriedly greeted from afar:

"Flowers, my mother is here!

Wait! ”

Saying that, Qiao Mu sped up his pace and walked quickly towards home, Qiao Hua also heard Qiao Mu's cry at this time, for fear that Qiao Mu would fall down or something if he walked fast, so he hurried to catch up.

"Mother, you're not at home at this time, what are you going up the mountain for? Don't defend yourself, I just saw you coming from the bottom of the mountain!

Is there nothing to eat at home?

Mother, don't worry, I brought you some sweet potatoes, this sweet potato was secretly planted in the yard, and now it is sweet to eat, it is all in the basket, I won't show it to you now, I will put it in the house for you later!

Big brother, they didn't send anything over? ”

Qiao Hua was worried, and said with some complaints, naturally worrying about Qiao Mu's physical condition, complaining that her two brothers saw that the cafeteria was stopped, and they didn't know how to send something.

"It's okay, I'll go up the hill for a walk!

Do you see that I don't come down empty-handed, and I don't lack food, you secretly grow sweet potatoes at home, and I also secretly grow them at home!

Isn't the cafeteria stopped? I can't stay at home all day and have something to eat, isn't that a clear way to tell people that I'm secretly growing things? So, I go to the mountains every once in a while, and I don't go far, just go a little shopping and come back, and make a show!

Don't leave the sweet potatoes to me, there is no shortage of them here for the time being, by the way, come in with me. ”

As they spoke, the two of them had already walked to the door of Qiao Mu's house, and Qiao Mu opened the door in time to go in, and brought Qiao Hua into the inner room.

took out a pack of cornmeal from the original grain cabinet in the back room, and said with a smile:

"Last time I went into the county seat, I saw someone selling cornmeal, so I bought a lot, and this time you happened to come over and bring this cornmeal back.

Give the child a cake to eat!

I don't have much ability to be too grandma, so let's make do with this little cornmeal! ”
