Chapter 278: Swamp Rectification
In addition, Song Xi also left a small piece of land in the vegetable garden to grow mushrooms, yes, when he went up the mountain to pick mushrooms, he directly brought back that piece of soil, just to see if he could cultivate mushrooms.
Maybe it's because the soil dug back contains mycelium, as long as it rains, there are really mushrooms coming out, and you don't have to go up the mountain if you want to eat mushrooms, but in addition to the mushroom packets sold in the supermarket, Song Xi still can't cultivate mushrooms, it seems that he can only wait to learn later, maybe he can let his children learn in the future.
When Qian Weimin held a meeting, he said that the marsh would be rectified for twenty points a day, so a group of gay men rushed to sign up.
In this way, Qian Weimin selected 100 young adults to participate in the rectification of the swamp, and in addition to He Xiachuan who wanted to teach, the other four male comrades all participated.
Zhou Yi and his small group were the only ones who signed up, because Mo Jiaxiang, Gu Ming, and Sheng Jiahe were responsible for delivering goods to the city, while Zhou Ping had to spend more time at home.
What's more, it doesn't take long to rectify the swamp, only six or seven hours a day, and six or seven hours in exchange for twenty points, and you can take leave to rest at any time, which can be said to be very cost-effective.
Zhou Yi also wanted to see if there were any good things in the swamp, but he didn't know, the good things had already been received by Song Xi on the roof of the supermarket, and even if there were any fish that slipped through the net, it would be difficult to find.
In the blink of an eye, Li Qingqing's birthday this year is approaching again, and Li Qingqing's eldest brother Li Yu and his partner Wang Xue are also planning to get married at the end of this year, but the wedding date has not yet been determined.
The day before Li Qingqing's birthday, Song Xi took Mo Jingxiang and Xu Yujie to Li Qingqing's house, mainly to let Li Qingqing and Wang Xue see Mo Jingxiang and Xu Yujie's makeup skills.
Since Jiang Jiayi showed his hand when she got married, many people have married and invited them to put on makeup for the bride, although they didn't make much money, but they received a lot of materials, and their fame is getting bigger and bigger.
Every time Mo Jingxiang and Xu Yujie went out to put on makeup for the bride, Xu Bing followed them to protect them.
After all, there are many people on the wedding day, and there are still wedding customs in some places, if there are guests who do something to the two makeup artists, then their lives will not be ruined?
But this time when I came to Li Qingqing's house, with Song Xi by my side, Xu Bing didn't come with me.
Li Qingqing's birthday is tomorrow, Li Qingqing still has to go to work today, as soon as Song Xi and the others arrived at the commune, they went straight to the guest house where Li Qingqing worked, and as soon as they saw Song Xi, Li Qingqing warmly hugged Song Xi.
The two of them meet twice a month, isn't that what you think?
Song Xi introduced Mo Jingxiang and Xu Yujie to Li Qingqing, saying that they were his students, and they also learned makeup and hair with him.
"Xiaoxi, you can take them to my house first! Because I will take a day off tomorrow, I can't take a break today. Although Li Qingqing really wants to go with Song Xi, but no, I can't lose my job.
"Okay, then we'll go over first, you can go to work with peace of mind, don't worry." Song Xi responded, and took Mo Jingxiang and Xu Yujie to Li's house.
Each of them carries a basket, and the basket is filled with ordinary things in the mountains, such as crabs, river shrimp, dried mushrooms, dried wild vegetables, dried bamboo shoots, .......
Because these things take up a lot of space, and there are people around her, Song Xi can't use the supermarket to cheat, so she can only ask Mo Jingxiang and Xu Yujie to help her share some of it.
The three of them came to Li's house, Grandma Li enthusiastically brewed three cups of sugar water for them, Song Xi didn't like to drink sugar water very much, and gave the sugar water to Mo Jingxiang and Xu Yujie in Grandma Li's absence.
Song Xi handed over the things in the basket to Grandma Li, and Grandma Li went to the stove house to tidy up, because there were three more people to eat at noon today, and they must make good arrangements.
After Mo Jingxiang and Xu Yujie finished drinking the sugar water, Song Xi said to Grandma Li and took them out shopping, although there is nothing to shop in this era, but for people in this era, it is very interesting.
Grandma Li told them to come back early for dinner.
"Teacher Song Xi, thank you, you have taught us a lot of truths, and you are still making suggestions for our future, you are really a very good teacher." Mo Jingxiang looked at Song Xi, who was smaller than herself, and said with some embarrassment.
She originally thought that she was like this, she got married at the age of sixteen or seventeen, had children, served her in-laws, and worked hard all her life.
Unexpectedly, Song Xi came and changed her, no, it changed the fate of all the girls in Ping'an Village.
You can read and write, you can learn to sing, dance and draw, and you can know that there are so many interesting things in this world, although in the end you still can't get rid of getting married and having children.
But they are really much happier and understand a lot more than before.
If something happens, you know how to deal with it, so you won't be as helpless as before.
"What are you doing?" Song Xi patted Mo Jingxiang's arm, "I'm two years older than you, don't be so restrained, let's get along like friends in the future, let's go, let's go to the supply and marketing cooperatives and department stores, you also have money now, go buy something you like." ”
Ten yuan a month, in the past few years, what student does not have savings of a few hundred yuan?
Although they are rich, Mo Jingxiang and Xu Yujie are not the kind of people who spend money lavishly, the two did not buy anything, but bought some pastries and fruit candy without tickets, Song Xi did not tell them that tomorrow was Li Qingqing's birthday, so they did not plan to buy Li Qingqing a birthday gift.
Song Xi bought a lipstick and a new set of clothes, and planned to use these as Li Qingqing's birthday gifts, but this is already more than a month's salary for workers, which is definitely a big gift.
On the way back to Li's house, Song Xi went to the state-run restaurant to pack ten steamed buns, a braised pork, a braised lamb chops, and a braised hoof.
Mo Jingxiang and Xu Yujie were not familiar with the Li family after all, and Song Xi was afraid that they would not feel comfortable eating at the Li family, so they packed these things as rations for the three of them.
Back at Li's house, Grandma Li and Grandpa Li looked at the things that the three of them brought back, a little embarrassed, but they didn't say anything, after all, they were not their own children, and they were afraid that talking too much would affect their mood.
Song Xi helped Grandma Li make lunch, the braised pork was returned to the pot and potato pieces were added, the stew was soft and glutinous and sweet, the soaked bamboo shoots were added to the braised hoof, and the white bamboo shoots were dyed with a sweet sauce, and the braised lamb chops were added to the pot with a moderate thickness of white radish strips, and when they took a bite gently, the mouth was full of juice, and the lips and teeth were fragrant.
