As for Liu Xiangyang, he was very depressed.

He originally had great expectations for going to university, but he successfully passed the recommendation in the commune, but was directly rejected by the county educated youth office.

Although Bai Mingchuan argued with reason, it had no effect.

After knowing the result, Wang Manyin was also a little helpless, and could only say that this guy was not very lucky, so he could only continue to wait for the next opportunity in the village.

However, with the beginning of the autumn harvest, Liu Xiangyang did not have time to be depressed.

The second team was the first to harvest more than a dozen acres of rice fields in Dongshan Pass.

Just like last year, the village invited the staff of the Shibijie Commune to help with the harvest, weigh it on the spot, and witness the effect of the fertilizer model field.

This time, the rice yield record per mu is even more exaggerated, and the highest acre of land has reached 617 catties, directly across the Yellow River, chasing the Yangtze River.

In the evening of the same day, the commune radio broadcast an enthusiastic draft, establishing the second team of Jarzi Village into an advanced production team for increasing fertilizer production and efficiency.

As last year, after obtaining the consent of the commune, Wang Lianshun distributed ten catties of rice to each member of the commune early.

Wang Manyin's family took advantage of it this year, and the two little guys also got head food.

From last autumn to now, almost a full year, the two flocks raised by the second team have grown to more than 100 heads. After discussing with several cadres, Wang Lianshun planned to take advantage of the August 15 festival to kill two sheep. Let's celebrate and cheer up for the next autumn harvest by the way.

After calculation, each family can almost share a pound of mutton, and even the educated youths are not less.

After getting the news, everyone in the second team was boiling.

In previous years, members might marinate the mutton and eat it slowly. Now many people have decided to have a luxury and stew it directly to eat a round belly.

Some even deliberately grinded a few catties of new rice and stewed it with mutton.

In the final analysis, the mother-in-law and aunt have earned a lot of money in recent months, and they are willing to let their families eat better.

Now the members of the first team are only envious.

You can't catch up with one step, you can't catch up with one step at a time.

The difference between the two production teams is only one year, and the gap in life has widened.

Fortunately, this year, their production team also built an earthen dam behind the village...... Originally, it was planned to grow rice and fish, but unfortunately there was no pump, so it had to be changed to corn.

It was watered once during the drought, and it should be good to see the growth and harvest, but it was a psychological comfort.

Wang Manyin's family got mutton, took advantage of the festival to take it to his father-in-law's house, and sent more than ten catties of rice, and everyone happily ate a mutton stewed rice together.

By the way, it should be seen off Shao'an.

When I went home, Orchid carried a few catties of red dates. Shuangshui Village will beat red dates around August 15 every year, and the old father-in-law's family also has a lot.

***

A few days after the rice was harvested, the production team began to harvest spring sorghum again.

The 50 acres of hybrid sorghum planted this year are particularly gratifying. Standing on the ground and looking at it, it was heavy and red. Not only is the yield high, but the color is very correct.

The crops are good, and the members are naturally energetic when they work.

Wang Manyin bent over, the sickle in his hand rising and falling, spreading the rows of sorghum stalks on the ground.

In a hurry, you can smell a choking smell of sake lees, which is a sign of ripening sorghum.

In about half an hour, a large piece fell behind him.

was busy, and listened to Wang Fuchang next to him shaking his head vigorously: "The sun is cowardly, the evil door is ......."

"Uncle Fu, what are you talking about alone?" Wang Manyin straightened his waist and asked curiously.

"Man Yin, do you say this is evil? I don't know what Brother Jincai fed the donkey in the morning, and the two donkeys were stunned and didn't even eat the crops. ”

"Uncle Fu, what are you kidding, how can a donkey not steal crops?" Wang Manyin didn't believe it a hundred.

Wang Jincai is one of the breeders of the second team, mainly responsible for the large livestock in the team. No matter how good the forage the donkey eats in the morning, it can't change its nature of stealing crops.

"Zhenli, what am I lying to you, when I drove the rack car over just now, I let the two donkeys run into the field carelessly. They chewed two ears of sorghum and stopped. ”

"Real Fake ......"

Wang Manyin was just about to continue responding, but happened to hear the sound of a break halfway.

He simply took a red sorghum ear and handed it directly to a donkey.

The guy stretched out his head and opened his mouth, picked up the heavy tassel with his tongue, and chewed it heavily.

"Uncle Fu, you are talking nonsense, this is not eating ......"

Wang Manyin didn't finish speaking, and was stunned again.

The donkey shook its head and threw out the ears of sorghum that had been chewed in its mouth. Then he stopped eating at all, but gnawed the wild grass by the ditch.

With doubts, Wang Manyin picked up the sorghum ears and put them in front of another donkey.

The results make no difference.

"Uncle Lian Shun, Brother Fugui, come and take a look, there may be a problem with this hybrid sorghum...... Wang Manyin couldn't help but shout.

In just half a minute, more than a dozen people gathered in front of him.

"What are you talking about, what's wrong with sorghum?" Wang Lianshun asked puzzled. This red is so gratifying.

"Lian Shun, there is really a problem...... Wang Fuchang said, telling what happened just now.

After listening to him, immediately a member of the unbelieving club cut an ear of sorghum again and fed it to the donkey.

Not surprisingly, this time the two donkeys only sniffed and turned their heads, as if they didn't see the ears of sorghum.

A group of people looked at each other, all confused by the scene in front of them.

You must know that in the past, when cattle entered the field, they were all competing to eat the crops. In order to prevent them from stealing food, people will bring a halter in advance.

It's good now, and I don't eat it until I put it to my mouth.

"What's going on, it's not poisonous?" Wang Lianshun muttered to himself, got a few grains of sorghum rice and put them in his mouth to chew.

Then, he threw up.

It is bitter, astringent, and has some tongue stings, which is even more unpalatable than ordinary sorghum rice. It feels like the kind of prickly vegetables I ate more than ten years ago.

The other members of the club followed suit and put some sorghum rice in their mouths, and they also spit it out.

"It's evil, I'll go to Officer Bai to ask for clarification." After confirming that there was a problem with this hybrid sorghum, Wang Lianshun couldn't sit still anymore and immediately went to the first team to find Bai Mingchuan.

After Bai Mingchuan tasted it, he also frowned.

Finally, he thought for a while and said, "Second Captain, you have people pick some sun-dried ones and make them into sorghum noodles at noon for a meal." Maybe it's delicious when cooked. ”

"This can only be the case," Wang Lianshun scratched his head.

Immediately, he continued to direct everyone to harvest sorghum.

As a result, in less than half an hour, Wang Fuchang, who was in charge of grinding sorghum noodles, ran back again, holding a large handful of crushed sorghum rice in his hand.

"Lian Shun, no, this sorghum husk is too dead, it can't grind rice at all, and if you grind it again, it will be completely broken."

In the past, the red sorghum and white sorghum planted in the village were milled for more than ten laps.

This hybrid sorghum is good, and it won't fall off the shell no matter how you grind it. It's so easy to break, and even the shell is broken together. If you want to eat like cooking, I'm afraid you can only use a sieve a few more times.

"No matter what, let's have a meal at noon."

Wang Lianshun has now made up his mind that no matter what, he wants to let the members taste what hybrid sorghum tastes like.

Tossed to a little more, Wang Shouchang took a few mothers-in-law and aunts into the ground to deliver food.

The staple food is the hybrid sorghum that everyone has been waiting for for a long time...... Sorghum rice, sorghum buns, and a few large buckets of black sorghum porridge!

Now that there is no food, Wang Shouchang can naturally cook hard. Two sorghum buns per person, and sorghum rice and sorghum porridge if you can't eat enough.

Wang Manyin served the food over there, picked up the black nest and put it in his mouth, and immediately felt the bitter taste in his mouth.
