Amy secretly added new grain to the jar every day, and from time to time she got some edible food from the mountains and mixed it together, which even lasted for several days.

These days, all the educated youths are working day and night, and even Liu Jianfang doesn't dare to be lazy.

Everyone wanted to complete the task before the day set by the village party secretary, get more work and divide the food, and they were so busy that they didn't have time to care about other people.

Seeing that the time for calculating the work was getting closer and closer, Yan Xiaoxi was very happy in his heart.

She had been staring at Amy's side before, knowing that Amy was the slowest in action, and Amy had only dug out a little bit when everyone had opened more than half of it.

She glanced at her father, who was smoking on the kang, and said with a smile: "Dad, the villagers had a bad time with the educated youths because of the work before, and felt that they had no ability to work. ”

The more people watched Amy make a fool of herself, the more she rejoiced.

The village party secretary took two puffs of cigarette and said with a smile: "Do you still use your little girl to teach me?" However, these days, Zhiqing is willing to work hard, that is, they are all holding pens, and I am afraid that farming will not work. ”

Everyone in Mao'er Village is rushing for spring ploughing, looking forward to turning over the land as early as possible to plant things, and to distribute grain as soon as possible.

Although he is the village party secretary, he is not without work, so he has been busy until now, except for the beginning when he went to the wasteland on the edge of the village to take a look, he has no time to go later.

The village party secretary thought that the educated youths didn't know how to farm at all, and he felt uncomfortable.

He took off his cigarette stick and tapped it on the kang, sighing heavily.

Yan Xiaoxi hurriedly walked over and poured him a glass of warm water, and then stood beside him and beat his back.

"Dad, what's wrong with you?"

The village party secretary shook his head and said in a deep voice: "The villagers all talked to death before, thinking that the educated youths were lazy to work with them, and they had to let the educated youths do their own work. ”

"If those educated youths don't complete the task during this acceptance, it is estimated that the villagers will make more trouble."

"And there is only a little land in the village, and the people in the village are reluctant to take them, and most of them have to go to pick up the newly opened land."

Yan Xiaoxi's movements paused, and he asked puzzledly, "Isn't this good?" Before, the villagers just thought that they were lazy and had too much work, and if they were separated, wouldn't the villagers have nothing to say? ”

The village party secretary shook his head with a smile.

"You, your brain is bright, but in the end, you still see less things. If you think about it, there is a wasteland over there, even if they let them open a little bit, the soil is not fertile, and it will not grow well if they plant anything, and the villagers will definitely not look down on it. ”

"But Zhiqing would not have picked up crops in the first place, and if they were allowed to plant that kind of bad land, they might not be able to do it at all, and at that time, everyone would not be willing to divide the work with them."

"There is no work, there is no food, and there are educated youths in the city who come to our village every year, can this person not be in trouble for a long time?"

Speaking of this, the village party secretary's face was full of gloom.

This problem is not easy to solve, he is the branch secretary of Mao'er Village, and he can't always help the educated youth to speak, and it will chill the hearts of the villagers when the time comes.

But those educated youths are not all fools, and they are not easy to fool, and when the time comes, they may shout again to go to the county and city to find justice.

Yan Xiaoxi on the side finally understood what he meant, and immediately raised his eyebrows slightly.

"So, no matter what you do, you can't do it?"

She likes Zhou Yize, but at this time, she can't say anything to let her father help the educated youth, otherwise the people in the village will definitely not be convinced, and the problem will be big.

The village party secretary waved his hand, "This is our business, you little doll don't worry about it, no matter how difficult things are, you have to come up with a way, right?" ”

"I'm just afraid that those educated youths will be angry, and when the time comes, there will be a big mess in the brain, you have nothing to do and talk to Xiao Zhou, he is the head of the educated youth, and those young people are willing to listen to his words."

Yan Xiaoxi responded again and again, and when he was resting after lunch at noon, he specially called Zhou Yize aside.

Zhou Yize is not a half-hearted person, he is still helping Amy, which shows that he still has Amy's eldest sister Elaine in his heart.

It's just that he is now living in the village party secretary's house, and Yan Xiaoxi has always been in contact with him as a comrade, so he can't ignore it at all.

So this time, when Yan Xiaoxi gave him a look at the dinner table, he still went.

"Is there anything you want me to do, is it related to the clearing of wasteland?"

Zhou Yize is most concerned about this matter now, after all, it is related to the future of all educated youth.

Yan Xiaoxi glanced at him, "Can't I talk to you if it's okay?" We used to be far away and always talk, but now we live in the same house, and we haven't been able to say a few words for so long. ”

Zhou Yize coughed awkwardly and put his hand to his mouth in disguise.

"I've been busy with clearing the land these days, and when I come back, I'm so tired that I just want to rest. And it is because we live in the same house that we have to avoid suspicion, otherwise we will be seen and gossiped by others, which will have a bad reputation for you. ”

When Yan Xiaoxi heard that he was thinking about himself, his heart suddenly felt much more comfortable.

"Don't worry, no one in the village dares to speak ill of me behind my back, so you don't have to hide from me like this."

She looked at Zhou Yize affectionately as she spoke, and Zhou Yize looked away uncomfortably.

He didn't want to continue talking about this, so he immediately changed the subject and asked, "So what are you trying to do with me?" ”

"I'm going to go to the acceptance in the afternoon, and I want to ask you what you mean by something."

Yan Xiaoxi picked and told Zhou Yize what her father said before, and asked worriedly at the end: "What do you say you really have a falling out when the time comes?" ”

Speaking of business, Zhou Yize's expression became much more serious.

He walked two steps back and forth in the room and said, "The branch secretary is right, this matter is indeed not easy to handle.

And after acceptance, it is necessary to divide the work, and when the next spring wheat is harvested, everyone will have to know the youth.

There was an incident of food being stolen by rats before the Zhiqing point, and everyone would definitely not be happy to eat together again, which is also a trouble. ”

These days, it may be because the educated youth live in the homes of the villagers, so the attitude of the villagers towards the educated youth is much better than before.

But Zhou Yize is not a child anymore, and he won't think that the relationship is really good because it seems that everyone has a good relationship on the surface.

Now it is because what the educated youth have done has not affected the interests of the people in the village, so everyone is happy to pretend to be kind.

There are too many problems, it's like a mess, and Rao is smart and can't think of a good way at once.

After Zhou Yize took Yan Xiaoxi, he immediately thought of Amy.

He felt that Amy should have a way.

Zhou Yize didn't know why he thought so, obviously Amy has never liked to talk among the educated youth, and she has never been sharp, but he just thinks that she will definitely be able to solve this problem.

At this time, Amy, who was in the east of the village, was being pulled by Mrs. Wang and Niuniu to talk.

"Xiaomi, don't be afraid, I won't drive you away."

Mrs. Wang is now the most worried about Amy in Mao'er Village, and she was hesitating what to do a few days ago.

In her opinion, Amy's task of clearing the wasteland must not have been completed, and even when it was time to distribute food, there would be no food.

However, Mrs. Wang knows her own situation, and it is so difficult to keep Amy for so many days, and I don't know what will happen if I stay a few more days.

In addition, all the people in the village secretly persuaded her to drive Amy away as soon as the time came.

Mrs. Wang looked at her granddaughter who was so hungry that she didn't have a few taels of meat at that time, and she really had this thought.

However, early this morning, Niuniu came to her and asked, "Grandma, don't you really want Sister Xiaomi?" ”

Mrs. Wang knew that her granddaughter liked Amy very much, and looking at her clean eyes, she couldn't say anything about driving Amy away.

So, there is a scene where Amy is now pulled to say this.

"Well, Sister Xiao, don't worry, I have worked hard, and I will definitely be able to divide a lot of food when the time comes, and I won't starve you."

Amy knew that they were good to her, but this was also compared to the rest of the village, and she really didn't expect them to say these things to her at this time.

Her eyes were a little sour, and she smiled softly.

"Grandma Wang, Niuniu, thank you."

"It's all a family, thank you or not, I'm going to see the field this afternoon, don't be afraid, grandma is here."

Mrs. Wang said to Amy in the tone of talking to Niuniu, as if she really regarded her as her own granddaughter.

Amy's heart became warmer and warmer, and she secretly made up her mind to let her and Niuniu live a good life.

Time passed quickly, and the villagers who were early in the afternoon were called to the door by the village party secretary to gather.

"Today is the day I said before, in order to ensure fairness and justice, I will divide the work under the noses of everyone, according to the size of the land opened by the educated youth."

There is a number of work points in a village, and if you take a little more, you have to take a little less.

However, according to the increase in the number of educated youth, the work assigned from the top will also increase correspondingly, but in the same way, the work and the food handed in will also increase.

This time, the educated youth and the village people worked separately, so they assigned the task to everyone's head, and then took out the part of the work that belonged to the educated youth.

The people in the village also made trouble, but when they knew that it was the policy of the superiors, they obediently shut up.

So, now everyone is waiting to see the excitement, and there is nothing else in their hearts, anyway, it has nothing to do with them.

But as soon as the big man came, he stared at Amy, and said in front of everyone: "I still say the same thing, if you ask me, I am still willing to take you back to eat with me." ”

His voice was not small, and those who were close to him could hear it clearly, and immediately followed suit.

"Just like her, this time it must be the penultimate one, when did you have such a good heart, big head, and you are about to raise her?"

"Haven't you seen it yet, the big head of the people is looking at Amy, and they are showing favor with flowers."
