Chapter 89: The First Break

Before school ends, Xu Yi hasn't come back yet. Long Hao took out a large piece of white flour bun from the basket and ate it, and then found the camera again.

I didn't take the film at home, and I put two boxes at home. Xiaoyi likes to take pictures, so let me take more pictures. I can't rinse it for the time being, so I will wait for the next time I go to the county seat, or other places where there is a photo studio, and I will rinse it all at once.

After eating the steamed buns, the stomach is almost the same. Long Hao burped, took a few sips of water, found a newly bought autumn coat and pants and put them in his bag, picked up the camera and walked out.

Walking to the door, Long Hao stopped, thought for a while, and returned to the house. He picked up the pencil on the table and danced on the notebook that Yu Yu was learning to doodle.

"Xiaoyi, I just came back, but I was in a bit of a hurry and had to leave. I'll take the camera and use it for two days, and then I'll get it back when I'm done. I ate the rest of the white bread and gave her a few packets of biscuits and pastries. Don't run around these days, especially don't let the rest out of your sight, whether at home or at school.

Long Hao, at 4:13 p.m.

Hug my little Yuyu again! ”

Putting down the pencil, Long Hao walked out of the cave, got on a motorcycle, and set foot on the mountain path.

After school, Xu Yi took Yu Yu home. When she saw that the harvest was beginning in many fields, she went into her own field and looked at it.

There used to be only one person in the family, Long Hao's land. Xu Yi and Yu Yu are both urban households, so naturally they have no land.

Last year, when the land was adjusted, Murakami took into account Xu Yi's actual situation and asked the team to take care of a few acres of land for her and Yu Yu, and then take back the land once she returns to the city or has other circumstances in the future.

Murakami said that he came to the village from the city and was still teaching in the village elementary school, but in fact he was already a member of Longjiayuan, and he should divide a few acres of land.

In this way, Xu Yi's family has almost two people's land. On the books, there are more than a dozen acres, but in fact there are more than 20 acres, which are basically contiguous and in the lower part of the slope, which is considered good land.

The ranking may ask, there are more than a dozen acres on the books, but how can it actually become more than 20 acres? What's the secret?

There's no secret, it's a little bit of a trick at best.

For thousands of years, peasants have had to pay the imperial grain. The eighties were no exception, but they were not called imperial grain, but public grain.

In a village like Longjiayuan, there are seven or eight acres of cultivated land per capita, and this number of acres is water. Of course, it's all dry land. There is no water land in Longjiayuan, there is no water land in the ancient city and countryside, and there are only about 10,000 acres of water irrigated by wells in the northern desert area of Zhendong County.

At that time, long ropes were used to measure cultivated land, not meter rulers. This rope may be seventy or eighty meters, but only fifty meters are recorded on the books. Many production teams don't remember how many meters, they all remember how many ropes, and this rope is kept in the team for a long time, and it will be used next time to pull the ground.

In this way, the area of cultivated land pulled out is larger, and it is much larger. There is only one reason, and that is to pay less public food.

Everyone is so poor that they can pay a little less. Now it seems that this small farmer is really a little bit of that kind of mentality, but that's what he did at the time. Everyone knows it, but they never say it, and they can't see any records.

Long Hao wanders around all year round, and he never cares about the fields, and all the land can only be planted by Xu Yi. It's just that Xu Yi is pampered, how can she plant anything?

But to eat and live, Xu Yi could only grit her teeth and go to the ground. If you don't have livestock, you won't do it, and you don't even know what to do. She stood on the edge of the ground, holding Yu Yu and crying silently.

Sun Zhiming's father, who was plowing the field next to him, came over, sighed, and asked Xu Yi to take Yu Yu back, and the field was left alone.

Since then, the family's land has been contracted by Sun Zhiming's family, planting a little summer grain, and then planting autumn grain. It is also impossible to plant too much, mainly to grow a little ration.

Xu Yi wanted to help Sun Zhiming's family do some housework or something, but Sun Zhiming's mother refused to let her live or die, saying that she was really guilty of marrying into this poor ravine.

In this way, it is equivalent to Sun Zhiming's family farming, and Xu Yi's family enjoying the success. Xu Yi really didn't want to go, and every time she paid her salary, she had to get some for Sun Zhiming's mother. But Sun Zhiming's mother not only didn't want it, but also reprimanded her, so she didn't dare to take the money out easily.

This year's summer grain planted a few acres of flax, the harvest was not bad, and a few bags of flax were made, all of which were stored in Sun Zhiming's kiln. If it had been placed in his own cave, he would have been gambled by Long Hao a long time ago.

Buckwheat is planted for autumn grain. The harvest was not bad, not a good harvest, but not bad. The main reason is the lack of fertilizer, including flax, this is still Sun Zhiming's father who evened out a little manure in his own stable, otherwise there would really be no harvest.

In fact, these Long Hao all knew, and also expressed countless apologies and remorse. It's a pity that after a drink, I forgot everything, and the previous vows became empty words.

Xu Yi went to the buckwheat field and took a look, and the buckwheat grains were black. She asked Sun Zhiming's father, who was checking in the field next to him, if he could harvest it, Uncle Sun grabbed a few buckwheat grains and looked at them, rubbed them, and looked up at the sky, saying that he was not in a hurry, he was not afraid of freezing for the time being, and let them ripen for a few more days, and then harvest them when the grains were full.

After thanking Uncle Sun, Xu Yi returned home full of joy. At this time of the year, she looked at the grain all over the ground, and often couldn't sleep all night. But this year, she didn't worry at all.

That guy will definitely figure it out. You can earn so much money by going out on one trip, what is this bit of food? In fact, he doesn't have to worry about it, and he can't let Uncle Sun suffer anymore, he can find a way by himself.

The 1,000 yuan left for myself was basically not spent. I haven't spent any of my salary for the past two months, and I'm all sitting under the box. After a few days, the buckwheat can be harvested, so take out the money, hire a few people, and it will be harvested in a day or two.

By the way, just hire a few more people and take all of Uncle Sun's family, which can be regarded as repaying for taking care of your family in the past few years.

Pull grain and hire a car. Uncle Sun's family only has one rack car, and he hires a few more cars, including livestock, and strives to pull all the grain to the field in one day, so that Uncle Sun will not be in the field at night to watch the grain.

The main thing is not to let the rats nibble on the food. It's so annoying that when you see a pile of grain in the ground, you immediately make a hole next to it, then bite off the straw and pull the grain into the hole.

Every year after autumn, when the grain is brought to the field, the villagers have to dig mouse holes in the field to find the grain stored by the mice. Sometimes dozens of catties of grain can be dug out of a hole, and when you are lucky, you can dig up hundreds of catties of grain a day. These grains were all planted by the common people, but they were taken away by these rats, and of course they had to take them back.

As for diseases, plague and so on, the common people do not have these cognitions, so they know to ask the rats for food. Not only ask the mouse, but also ask the squirrel that looks like the mouse to eat meat.

Every year in autumn, digging weasels has become the happiest thing for ordinary people. A big yellow rat has more than a pound, and a person in the prime of life can eat a beautiful meal. The smaller ones have several taels of meat, and eating two or three at a meal can satisfy cravings.

Oh, it's too far, let's go back to the yard.

As soon as the door opened, Yu Yu ran in like a kitten, and then ran to the door again.

"Mommy, Mommy, Daddy is back." Yu Yu was holding a pack of biscuits in his hand.

"Huh? Daddy's back, where's he? Xu Yi looked left and right.

"I didn't see it, but I saw the biscuits on the table." Yu Yu took Xu Yi's hand and walked to the table.

There were two packets of candles on the table, as well as a few boxes of biscuits and pastries, among other things. It's clear that the guy did come back.

"Mom, Daddy Big Badass, scribbling in my book." Yu Yu picked up the notebook.

"Mom, look at it." Xu Yi followed the book, and her beautiful eyes immediately widened, and then her eyes turned red.

This heartless guy has always said to go, let alone a word, and many times he doesn't even say hello. I didn't bother to say hello today, but I left a message for myself, this is the first time in the world!

It doesn't matter what you write, the important thing is to write it, tell yourself where he is, and that's enough. It shows that he cares about this family and shoulders his own responsibilities for this family.

"Mom, what did Dad write?" Yu Yu raised his little face.

"I didn't write anything, I just wanted to hug you little villain." Xu Yi picked up the book again.

"Hey...... I want to hug my dad big badass, too. Yu Yu took out a biscuit and fed it to her mother's mouth.

"Well, Dad's big badass, big big badass......" Xu Yi looked at Benben and closed her eyes slightly.

Suddenly, Xu Yi opened her eyes and looked at the book carefully.

Oh my God, is that the guy's word? I've only read the IOUs written by that guy a few times, and they're all crooked, and it's not too much to use them.

But the font on this book is so vigorous and powerful that it can't be written without decades of skill. This guy was reborn, first his knowledge grew, and now he writes so beautifully, what is going on?

Did you recognize the wrong person? Or is this guy here to subvert cognition?

"Bad mother, don't scold Dad, don't scold Dad......" Yu Yu's little hand patted lightly on his mother's leg.

"Little villain, mom won't scold anymore, no more. Let's go, light the fire for my mother, and my mother will cook for us......"
