When they got off work that afternoon, Qin Huairu and Silly Zhu were about to go home when they were stopped by the girl in the communication room of the factory.

"Qin Huairu, don't leave yet, your son sent you a telegram to the factory."

One sentence stunned Qin Huairu, her family was not on the train, how could she send him a telegram. So he said:

"Are you mistaken? My family has gone to the countryside, and the person is still on the train, where did he send me the telegram? ”

"That's right, the telegram came from the train, it must have been sent by your child, you better take a look." Saying that, the girl handed a note to Qin Huairu and didn't go back, she let her run after work, and she didn't have a good tone when she spoke.

Qin Huairu took the note and looked at the short words on it: "The money is stolen, and I will send another two hundred." ”

After reading it, I don't know what to say, the two hundred yuan is her salary for most of the year, or the kind that doesn't eat or drink. This dead kid said he would lose it, why didn't he even lose it himself.

Silly Zhu looked at Qin Huairu with a gloomy expression and asked puzzledly, "What's the matter, Huairu?" Is something wrong with the terrier? ”

"The dead boy lost the money he had brought with him."

"Money! That's fine, just send it to him again. "Silly Zhu doesn't care about money at home, and he has no idea how much money is. Anyway, you can drink wine and eat peanuts.

"That's a good thing to say, two hundred yuan, our family's expenses for a year. You think it's a dollar or two, and you can send it. Qin Huairu said in an unkind tone, she was about to explode, and the stupid pillar was still adding to the chaos.

"What then? Don't send it to him? ”

Qin Huairu thought about it, it doesn't work if you don't send money, the key is that you don't bring anything, if you don't have any money, then you won't starve to death, even if you don't starve to death, you have to freeze to death, that ghost place is so cold.

"Even if you send money, you can't send two hundred, what if he loses it? In this way, send him fifty dollars first, and then send him another five dollars a month, even if you lose it, it will be fine. ”

"It's good, it's just a bit troublesome, and I have to run to the post office every month."

"It's better to trouble than to lose money. Think about it, if you have to earn 200 yuan for a wedding banquet, how many meals do you have to make? ”

Silly Zhu counted with his fingers, he had to go out to cook a hundred wedding banquets for 200 yuan, and in the current market, there may not be so much work in two years.

"This little bastard has lost so much money." Silly Zhu said through gritted teeth after settling the account.

"Now I know, that's not what you just said. Take out the light momentum of the clouds just now, and deduct the fifty yuan from your small treasury, and that's it. ”

"Don't! I managed to save some money, and I counted on it to drink. ”

"If you want to drink, go out and earn some extra money. Don't be idle at home all day, and dislike others for giving less, it's not a dime to earn more. Qin Huairu said angrily. There are a lot of jobs that are stupid and disliked by others, otherwise it will be stupid Zhu's craftsmanship, if he wants to go out to work, then there is still free time. Besides, if you give less, isn't it because there are fewer seats made by others? One table can be compared to three tables. Saying anything else is, stupid pillars are lazy.

When he got home, he didn't tell Jia Zhang's family, Qin Huairu stayed to cook, and asked Silly Zhu to run to the post office with the money and remit the money to the stick terrier. For fear that Jia Zhang's family would find out and disagree, they clamored for them to give two hundred.

………

Yan Jiekuang and the others wandered around the train for two days, and finally arrived in the city that morning.

After they got off the bus, they took a bus to the county seat below, and then took a tractor to the town.

By the time they reached the town, it was getting dark, and a group of people gathered around and waited for the ox cart from the village to pick them up.

After waiting for more than an hour, a few slow ox carts drove over, and before that, several cars had already come to pick up many educated youths.

"I'm sorry, it's too dark to walk on the road, it's too late, you guys are in a hurry. Hurry up and get in the car. My name is Wu Erdan, you can call me Erdan. The number of people who came and counted the number of people who happened to be going to their village, so he opened his mouth and introduced himself.

Yan Xie Kuang got into the car and sat down, leaving the stick terrier standing next to the car and not getting into the car, smelling the stench emitted from it and wrinkling his nose: "What are you loading in this car, it smells so big." ”

"I'm sorry, I've been fertilizing in the past two days, and I haven't washed it in a hurry. Erdan touched his head and said embarrassedly.

"If you don't like the smell, just go, don't mistake us." Seeing that the stick terrier was about to speak, Yan Jiekuang hurriedly interrupted him. It's dark and they don't leave until the village is over, and besides, they have to pack up and arrange accommodation.

"Who can't say it, Wei Da'er won't let people say it? You should have washed your car like this, really. The stick terrier said as he rubbed into the car, with a disgusted expression on his face.

Yan Xie Kuang stopped talking when he saw that the stick terrier got into the car, this kid will suffer from the losses in the future with this mouth, and there is no need for him to discipline him for their family.

Erdan watched everyone get into the car, and with a flick of the whip, the ox cart slowly drove forward.

Along the way, Yan Xie Kuang said a few words to Erdan from time to time to inquire about the situation in the village.

The second egg didn't hide it, and he said whatever Yan Xie Kuang asked. Anyway, if you don't say it yourself, they can know it when they get to the village.

After chatting along the way, Yan Jiekuang had some understanding of the situation in the village.

The reason why this village is called Lianghe Village is because the river passes in both directions in the east and west, and there is a big mountain in the north, so you can only take a road to the south to get out of the village and enter the village.

He also heard that there were already 10 educated youths in this village, and they were the second wave of educated youths who came to this village.

The village has a place to live for the educated youths who came here, and a courtyard has been specially built as a spot for the educated youth.

Like their members, educated youths also work every day to earn centimeters, and at the end of the year, they exchange centimeters for food, and those with more centimeters can also be exchanged for money.

Although only one season of grain can be grown here every year, it is still okay to eat and drink more because of the lack of people, and sometimes you can encounter some small animals, but the big ones rarely go down the mountain. Every year, the village also organizes people to go into the water to fish, and in addition to the ones that need to be handed in, they can also leave a lot of them for the members to share.

There are still more than a dozen pigs in the village, and at the end of the year, you can exchange them for pork by centimeters.

The conditions are much stronger than the villages on the other side of Sijiu City, but it is not easy in winter, so it is much more comfortable to live and prepare some firewood.

There is a lot of firewood here, and there are some on the mountain, but if you get back trouble, you have to rely on people to carry it.

In addition, their village is small and there is no school, and the children in the village have to walk seven or eight miles to other big villages to go to school.
