In order to distinguish it from the old packaging before, Wang Manyin deliberately printed a line of words on the back: From now on, "Lao Wang Spiced Melon Seeds" will use new packaging, and all those who use the old packaging will be counterfeit and shoddy products.

That's all he can do at the moment.

How effective it is depends on the sales of spiced melon seeds in the next period of time.

Later, he had to take the car back to the Shibijie Commune, and Wang Manyin did not stay with Guo Weidong for long.

The two discussed it, and he got up and left. The original west county town has not changed much from ten years ago, there are only three vertical and three horizontal six streets, and the most prosperous area is still near the county supply and marketing cooperative.

At noon, Wang Manyin didn't have the heart to wander around, crossed two streets, and had already come to the suburbs.

Finding a remote earthen cliff, he dodged out his bicycle and rode back to the station to find the car bound for the Shibijie commune.

It was not yet one o'clock in the afternoon, when the sun was scorching. In the big car, there were only five people, including the driver and the conductor. After saying hello to Zhou Wenhua, Wang Manyin planned to put the bicycle connected to the three snakeskin bags on the roof shelf.

Before he could make a move, he was stopped by the other party.

"Brother Wang, you can't pull a few people in this car, you just put things in the car, you don't have to toss back and forth!"

Listening to what Zhou Wenhua said, Wang Manyin did not insist anymore.

probably knew that it was impossible for anyone to wait for the car at noon, and when it was time to depart, Zhou Wenhua did not go around the county as usual, but drove straight out of the city, all the way fast.

Fortunately, there are very few cars on the road now, so I am not afraid of accidents......

Wang Manyin was originally not motion sick, but he was soon a little sleepy.

I was half-asleep when I suddenly heard a bang.

Immediately, the brakes were slammed.

Now the bus does not have seat belts, and Wang Manyin sits in the hallway...... Under the action of inertia, he leaned forward abruptly.

Fortunately, he didn't feel right, and reacted subconsciously, reaching out and grabbing the back of the seat in front of him, so that the whole person didn't fall out.

Another passenger sitting in the corridor was miserable, flying straight out of his seat and crashing into several snakeskin bags.

"Wenhua, why are you so reckless......" Wang Manyin had just said half a sentence, when he suddenly stopped talking, and his face changed greatly.

On the windshield in front of you, there were specks of fresh blood and dirt.

Hit something!

At this time, Zhou Wenhua excitedly turned his head and said to everyone: "Wait a minute! ”

With that, he opened the door and got out of the car. When he returned to the carriage, he was carrying two bloody pheasants in his hands.

"Master driver, you're too powerful, just come to a double ring!" The fallen passenger returned to his seat and spoke with some envy.

"That's," Zhou Wenhua explained proudly, "fifty meters away, I saw two pheasants fighting in the middle of the road...... One accelerated, and neither of them ran. The last time I went to the city, I killed a hare. ”

After a pause, he turned his head and said, "Brother Wang, go to my house to eat pheasant meat at night!" ”

Wang Manyin was extremely speechless when he heard it: the other party's sassy operation was simply joking with his own life and the lives of his passengers.

However, this is the regular operation of drivers now, and they don't pay attention to any traffic laws at all, how barbaric they come, and even there are many people who drink and drive.

Stretching out his hand not to hit the smiling person, Wang Manyin didn't say much, but refused: "Thank you, there is still a mess at home, how can I have time!" ”

He has already made up his mind to try to avoid sitting in the other party's car in the future.

After packing up the pheasant, Zhou Wenhua still drove fast.

In just an hour, the bus had already returned to the Shibijie bus station.

Wang Manyin unloaded his bicycle and snakeskin bag, and rode home again. Halfway down the road, he went into the space and picked three large watermelons and put them in a snakeskin bag.

The watermelons in the space had matured half a month ago, but Wang Manyin was busy every day, and he didn't have time to go to the commune to catch the market, so he naturally couldn't take them out for his family to eat.

Today is a good opportunity to buy from the prefecture.

The three children, who had not yet gone to school, gathered around them with anticipation when they saw their father return.

They all knew that whenever their father went out, he would always bring gifts to the family.

"There is bread and watermelon in the snakeskin bag, and you can take it out and eat it separately." Wang Manyin didn't sell it, and pointed to one of the snakeskin bags.

This old bread was specially bought by him from the Huangyuan City Supply and Marketing Cooperative, and the materials are real, as big as a brick, and the top surface is baked brownish-red. Tear it open with your hands, it is fluffy and brushed, and it tastes slightly sour.

"On a hot day, run so far, bring less things to the house in the future......" Orchid took out a hand towel and wiped her husband's sweat distressedly.

"Why are we busy, don't we just want them to eat better and have a better time." Wang Manyin replied disappreciatively.

"The new packaging of melon seeds is back, I'll take a look...... Stay away from you guys, don't get your bags dirty! When she heard that the new package was printed, Orchid immediately excitedly took out a stack.

Looking at the patterns she had drawn with her own hands, she felt a little proud in her heart.

In the end, she is a girl, and she knows that she feels sorry for the adult.

After Wang Xing took the bread, he handed a piece to his parents first.

Looking at the two sons again, they only know to shove them into their mouths.

After eating the bread, Wang Manyin cut the watermelon again. The bright red watermelon cubes are placed on the table, and the sight of them makes the mouth revel.

Before picking watermelons, he deliberately chose a larger one, one weighing more than ten pounds. A family of five couldn't finish eating at all, so they just kept the hairy eggs and ate them at work.

Sending her three children to school, Orchid gets down to business.

"Man Yin, I went to our cornfield in the morning to see it. The weeds inside grow fast and as deep as corn, which makes people laugh at it. Or you are at home in the afternoon, and I will go to the field to weed!! ”

Since the village has been divided into mutual aid groups, almost every family is busy in the fields every day, and their motivation is more and more energetic.

On the other hand, Wang Manyin's family had discussed with Wang Qiusheng and Wang Qingming before, and they were ready to go it alone. So people didn't come to him when they went to work in the fields.

From wheat to now, the two have been busy frying spiced melon seeds, where is the time to do farm work in the field.

Now the corn grows knee-deep, and the weeds are about the same...... Standing on the side of the road, the corn seedlings in the field are not conspicuous at all. If it goes on like this, it is estimated that it will be scolded by the people in the village behind their backs.

In fact, Wang Manyin doesn't care. Now it is no more than a few years ago, as long as you have money in hand, you can easily buy food. In addition, there is a space guarantee. Even if all the crops in a few acres of land are lost, they will not be hungry for their own families.

But he couldn't be confused on the big face, he thought for a while and said, "I'll go!" ”

On a hot day, he didn't plan to keep his aunt busy.

In addition, in his heart, Wang Manyin has already made up his mind: after two years of stable form, he can give his own land to others to plant.

Speaking kung fu, Mao Dan and they came to work. Wang Manyin immediately beckoned to eat watermelon.

After eating the watermelon, several people heard that the new packaging was ready, and they also took it out to check.

This delay was delayed, and it was almost three o'clock before the official work began.

Now there are more than 2,000 catties of spiced melon seeds fried in the warehouse cave, which is enough to load a car. So in the afternoon, Wang Manyin did not let the frying continue, but organized everyone to bag it.

At about four o'clock in the afternoon, when the heat was not so heavy, he carried his hoe and went straight to his cornfield.

When he got to the ground, Wang Manyin was also a little dumbfounded.

Boy!

In front of me, there was a lush greenery, and sedges, dogtails, and horses were all over the ground. If you stand a little farther away, you won't be able to see the corn seedlings at all.

Looking at the plots of other people's houses next to them, they are cleaned up and clean, and there are almost no weeds. Compared with the two sides, those who don't know think that there are no crops in this plot.

On the one hand, the fact that the weeds grow so vigorously is related to the fact that it just rained a few days ago; On the other hand, Wang Manyin used enough fertilizer when he planted the land.

Now there are no herbicides available, so we have to resort to stupid methods.

Without saying anything, he spat twice, grabbed the hoe and began to get busy.

Wang Manyin didn't have time to clean up the weeds in detail, but he relied on his strength, hung the tip of the hoe directly in the soil, pulled it backwards, and turned up the grass and soil in the ditch one after another.

This action is a bit like plowing, and the efficiency is much higher than that of a normal hoe. It's just that "the radish is fast and the mud is not washed", and the grass near the corn root is still in place.

One afternoon, the clothes were dry and wet.

When it was almost dark, Wang Manyin carried the weeds he had hoeed to the ground.

By the time he carried his hoe and hurried home with the rest of the village, it was already dark in the ditch.

This is the daily life of the afflicted, from sunrise to sunset.

By the time she got home, Orchid had already cooked the meal.

Wang Manyin was slimy, and explained that the family would eat first, and then took a change of clothes and went to Dongshan Pass to take a bath.

When I returned again, I realized that the orchid and the children had not eaten it at all, and they were still waiting.

While the adults were resting, the three children took the initiative to set up tables and chairs, and serve food and food.

It's a shame that the two of them will do it!

Seeing that the owner began to eat, the two earth dogs also rushed to join in the fun, barking incessantly.

It had only been a week since they were brought back, and they were already familiar with Wang Manyin's family, and they knew that they were chasing after them to ask for food.

Wang Lei and Wang Tao are still in the freshness period, so they immediately poured rice into the food bowl, and then peeled a white egg and broke it and put it in it.

Now there is no difference between ordinary people in rural areas feeding dogs and ten years ago, and it is already good to get some pot water every day, and it is more completely free-range.

When the dogs are hungry, they will automatically look around for food. It's not uncommon to steal crops from the fields and eat shit behind the butts of adults and children.

Speaking of which, there is also a joke.

In the past few years, some educated youths have been writing letters to the city to respond because they are not comfortable with rural life. So he began to send leading teachers to the educated youth in each village to take care of and manage the lives of the educated youth.

The teacher assigned to Jar Village was from the city, and when he came to the countryside for the first time, he didn't know how the local dogs here looked for food every day.

When he was working with the team, he suddenly wanted to get on the tuba in the middle of the night, so he found a loaf not far from the ground and squatted down. was busy solving the problem, and felt that there seemed to be some movement behind him, and the person subconsciously turned his head.

I saw two earth dogs standing not far behind me, staring at me.

The teacher who led the team was frightened at the time, hurriedly lifted his pants, shouted and rushed out.

The nearby members were startled when they heard the shouting, and they thought they had recruited wolves. After asking clearly, they almost laughed one by one.

However, in Wang Manyin's house, the dietary standard of rhubarb has always been very high, and the meals are full. I caught hares and pheasants every once in a while, and I could get some visceral bones or something.

So for the extravagant behavior of his sons feeding eggs, Wang Manyin did not stop it.

In his heart, he also hopes that the two puppies will be as smart as Rhubarb in the future, and they will be proficient in hunting. When you grow up, it's not bad to take three local dogs into the mountains to hunt.

It's a pity that there are no wolves in the mountains near Jar Village now. If you want to fight the wolves again, you must go to the Houzitou commune farther away.

After eating, Wang Manyin left Rhubarb to guard the door, and walked to Wang Qiusheng's house with his family.

Since Wang Qiusheng's family opened a consignment point, a new restaurant was quickly formed in front of the door, and it was very lively every night.

After dinner, Wang Manyin and his family would stay for a while as long as they had free time to listen to the big news that had happened in the village recently.

As a result, something big happened today, and as soon as they greeted someone, they listened to the dominatrix Liu Guizhi and asked.

"Man Yin, Orchid, have you heard, Xie Liansheng ran away this morning!"

"Where's the run?" Wang Manyin was confused when he heard this, and asked subconsciously.

"Where else can I run, people are back in the city...... Like Chen Yonghong, a few days ago, Xie Liansheng deceived Aihua into divorcing with clever words, and left alone in a car this morning. Aihua is also a fool, how can she let him go. This time, it is estimated that he will never come back! ”

"Ungrateful guy, if it weren't for Guifa Ye, Xie Liansheng would have died a long time ago!"

"I persuaded Aihua to find a local offspring to marry. It's a pity that this woman is a dead eye, and she wants to marry Xie Liansheng with one heart, and she doesn't even ask for a bride price......"

Listening to the discussion of the people in the village, Wang Manyin also sighed in his heart.

At the earliest, educated youths were not allowed to fall in love with locals. Later, because there were too many such things, the wind direction slowly changed, from not allowed to supporting.

Because of this, many educated youths and locals get married.

There are two pairs in Jarzi Village alone, one pair is Wang Xishan, the second son of Chen Yonghong and Wang Fugui's family, and the other team is Wang Aihua, a woman from Xie Liansheng and Wang Gui's family.

Last year, the situation changed, and the educated youth returned to the city one after another, except for those who had already married and settled down.

For this reason, Chen Yonghong cried and divorced Wang Xishan, leaving the two children to return to the city. Now, more than a year later, she hasn't returned.

Xie Liansheng was the last educated youth in Jar Village, but he didn't expect that he still hadn't stayed.

With his departure, the educated youths completely disappeared in the jar village, and there was no one left.

These people are like a flock of geese who suddenly came to Jar Village ten years ago and settled down. The people of the village accepted them with the most tolerant attitude, distributed rations, dug caves, and recommended recruitment...... After doing everything, these people disappeared quietly.

So far, the educated youths who left have never returned. Liu Xiangyang was better, and wrote a letter to Wang Manyin every once in a while to talk about his recent situation. once remitted dozens of yuan and asked him to help bring it to Wang Lianshun.

In fact, Wang Manyin has heard too many similar stories in the past two years, and he has no intention of evaluating who is right and who is wrong.

However, for Wang Aihua, it is estimated that life will be difficult in the future. She has to take care of two children by herself, and there is a Lao Tzu Wang Guifa who needs to serve.

After all, Wang Guifa is old, plus he has been herding sheep in the village for many years, coming and going in the wind and rain, and his body has not been good.
