The Zhiqing Point of the Ten Mile Brigade was originally a brick house of the landlord's family, but after the confiscation, it was assigned to a poor peasant old man, and no one dared to live in it after the old man's death.

Until the educated youth went to the countryside, the courtyard was distributed to them, saving the villagers from helping them build houses.

There are a total of eight old intellectuals, three women and five men.

Over the years, the educated youth have gone to the countryside in batches, but there are very few places to return to the city, and some of the educated youths have already married locally.

Fortunately, there are many large houses in the landlord's yard, four rooms and a kitchen in the front yard, a well and a vegetable field in the backyard, and a single room in the northeast corner next to the back wall, which is said to be the residence of the landlord's wet nurse.

There are many male intellectuals, occupying two larger houses in the west, and female intellectuals are ......

Looking at the assigned hut, Lin Nianhe and the three of them looked at each other.

In this room, except for the kang, they all had to turn sideways if they wanted to stand at the same time.

The kang is not big, it is estimated to be only one meter two or three wide, and it is a little crowded to sleep two people, let alone three.

"How do you sleep here?" Wen Lan's brows were twisted, and she patted Wang Shumei's thigh and said, "In this big fart place, the luggage for Hezi is too crowded." ”

After chatting all the way to Tiananmen Square, Wen Lan had unilaterally reconciled with Lin Nianhe, one bite at a time, and Lin Nianhe was very hungry and wanted to eat the leek box.

Wang Shumei was slapped on the thigh by Wen Lan along the way, and she was hurt and injured at this time, she was so painful that she wanted to hide, but as soon as she moved, she stuck to the wall and rubbed the wall dust.

Wang Shumei grinned and rubbed her legs, and suggested: "Why don't you go to the old intellectual's house to have a look?" You can't really sleep on a stack. ”

The three of them had no other way, so they went to another room for a female intellectual.

They stood by the window and saw that there was no need to speak.

This room was bigger than theirs, but it was also three bunks next to each other, and it was impossible to add another person.

Wen Lan was so worried that she was caught off guard and gave Wang Shumei a slap in the face: "It's terrible!" ”

Wang Shumei: "......"

Lin Nianhe thought about it, turned around and went out to find the captain.

"Uncle Captain."

Li Dahe was originally talking to Sun Guanghui, an old intellectual, but when he heard this voice, he immediately shuddered, turned his head stiffly, looked at Lin Nianhe and asked, "What's wrong, what's wrong?" ”

Lin Nianhe looked at him wonderingly, and said in his heart whether he was pretending too much and scaring this little old man.

She raised a silly smile: "Uncle, we can't sleep more than three people in that room, or ......"

She glanced at the backyard and cleared her throat, with a dedicated expression of "I don't go to hell who will go to hell": "Why don't I go to the firewood room in the backyard to live." ”

She has too many secrets, and it is convenient to keep secrets by living by herself, and she can also open a small stove.

The point is that she is not afraid.

She has a lot of things to defend herself, and there is really any hooligan who doesn't open his eyes and touches her door...... She could only try to make sure that he would be left with a corpse.

Li Dahe was stunned, entered the room and looked at the palm-sized little kang, pouting his teeth, and twisting his brows into twists.

It's true that this house can't accommodate three people, but let the little cub go to live in the firewood house by himself......

Facing Li Dahe's suspicious gaze, Lin Nianhe touched his nose and said glutinously: "I live at home by myself." I don't sleep honestly, I kick people, I kicked my mom in the arm when I was three years old, and she talked about it for years. ”

Wen Lan and Wang Shumei glanced at each other, and the two of them picked up Lin Nianhe's luggage roll together, and they only waited for Li Dahe's order, and they helped her move.

Lin Nianhe rolled his eyes at the two of them.

The friendship of the partners is really vulnerable.

Li Dahe took two puffs of cigarettes, lost two hairs, and didn't think of a better way, so he could only nod in agreement.

He went out to greet Sun Guanghui: "Sun Zhiqing, you take a few male intellectuals to move out the firewood in the backyard house, and pick it up for Lin Zhiqing to live in." ”

Sun Guanghui was a little confused, scratched his head and said, "It's not appropriate to let female comrades live in a firewood room, right?" I'll go for it. ”

Li Dahe was so angry that he rolled his eyes: "What's the use of you going?" Isn't this house still not sleeping? ”

Only then did Sun Guanghui realize that the key to the problem was not who lived in the firewood room, but that the dormitory of the female educated youth was not enough.

He replied humbly, turned around and beckoned a few old intellectuals to work.

There is not much firewood, and the five people all moved out in three or four trips, Lin Nianhe went in and took a look, and his eyes lit up.

Although the house is cramped and cramped, and there is a lot of garbage, there is a single small kang with a glassless window inside and outside, and an empty stove outside.

Li Dahe looked at the room, took another puff of cigarette, and said, "I'll write a note for you, and in the afternoon you go to the commune to get a few pieces of glass back, and I'll let people ...... Forget it, I'll ask my son to get some glass back and replace it for you. ”

He was really afraid that this little cub would be taken away by the wolf halfway.

"Thank you, Uncle Captain! You're the best captain I've ever met! Lin Nianhe grinned.

She was telling the truth, after all, she had only seen Li Dahe and a captain.

Li Dahe glanced at her: "It's good to break the bottle." ”

After speaking, the little old man walked out with his hands behind his back, and said to the three female intellectuals who were watching the excitement: "Xiaolin intellectuals are young, you usually take care of them, and it is your responsibility to know the youth if something happens." ”

The educated youths are afraid of this unsmiling captain, no matter what they think in their hearts, their faces are more serious than the other, and they promise very happily.

However, after Li Dahe left, only Wen Lan and Wang Shumei came to help clean up the hut.

An old intellectual, named Wang Xue, came around and said that she still had to cook, and she would come to help when she was done.

"Hezi, are you afraid of living by yourself?" Wen Lan asked while wiping the kang.

Lin Nianhe sprinkled water and swept the floor, and replied without raising his head: "Why don't you come and sleep with me?" ”

Wen Lan's hand froze, and she said weakly: "This kang can't sleep two people." ”

Lin Nianhe: "Then you will change with me?" ”

Wang Shumei's eyes tightened: "Otherwise, I'll give you two mouse traps, right?" ”

Everything went smoothly according to the initial plan formulated by Lin Nianhe, and she was completely disliked.

The kitchen of this house is only thirteen or fourteen square meters, although it is dirty, it is not difficult to clean up. It took only half an hour for the three of them to clean up from the inside out.

Before Lin Nianhe could say thank you, Wen Lan and Wang Shumei ran away, and after a while, they moved her luggage.

Such enthusiasm made Lin Nianhe have to suspect that they were afraid that they would regret it.

Suddenly I don't want to thank them.

Wen Lan hehehe, silly music, Wang Shumei looked up at the sky, and no one spoke.

Lin Nianhe snorted lightly, took out a few White Rabbit toffee brought to her by Lin's mother from her bag, and stuffed three candies in her hand: "One yard is one yard, thank you for helping me clean up, otherwise I will have to spend time cleaning up the house today." ”

In this era, the White Rabbit toffee is very precious, and only the families who pet their children are willing to buy a few pieces, and the supply and marketing cooperatives in some small places are out of stock at all.

Wen Lan and Wang Shumei swallowed their saliva, but they both shook their heads and excused themselves.

One said, "You're welcome to do a little work," and the other said, "You keep the good stuff for yourself."

Lin Nianhe's heart was warm, and he smiled and stuffed the candy into their pockets, pretending to be angry and said, "You guys are like this, I'm embarrassed to ask you for help in the future." ”

Wen Lan and Wang Shumei couldn't resist her and accepted the toffee.

The two looked at each other again, and secretly swore in their hearts that they would look at this stupid girl a little more in the future, and give out six white rabbits if they did some work, and she was afraid that she would be bullied to death when she went out.

Lin Nianhe began to pack his luggage, and Wen Lan and Wang Shumei also went back to pick up their things.

Closing the door, Lin Nianhe sat on the edge of the kang and rested for a while before turning out a piece of oiled paper, poured half a bag of white rabbit toffee, took out a notebook and wrote down two lines, stuffed the sugar and paper into an army-green satchel, and went out.

The female intellectuals in the front yard are still cooking, and several male intellectuals are building sheds to pile firewood under the leadership of Sun Guanghui, intending to use it as a temporary firewood house.

Seeing that Lin Nianhe was carrying a bag, Sun Guanghui asked casually: "Comrade Lin wants to go out?" ”

"Hmm." Lin Nianhe nodded, "Comrade Sun, may I ask where is the captain's uncle's house?" ”

After a pause, she felt a few inquiring glances coming from the kitchen, and said loudly: "Uncle Captain said that he would let his son go to the commune to get the glass in the afternoon, and I want to ask if he can help me send a telegram home." ”

Sun Guanghui was honest and honest, and when he heard this, he immediately took her out, and pointed out the direction of the captain's house before saying, "It's a lunch break here, if you can't find it, just knock on the door and ask." ”

"Thank you, Comrade Sun." Lin Nianhe thanked him and asked again, "By the way, I want to ask, how do we cook our meal?" Can I borrow a kitchen? ”

"You just came, we can make today's meal, and when you go back, you will borrow food from the team and pay it back." Sun Guanghui said again, "The captain just said, you will rest in a few afternoons and go back to work tomorrow." ”

"I see I have a kitchenette there, can I cook my own food?" Lin Nianhe asked what he wanted to ask the most.

Her rice noodles can't be put on the bright noodles at all, but if you eat them yourself, it's not a big problem.

Although I can't finish it in eight lifetimes.

Sun Guanghui was stunned, a little uncertain: "You don't plan to partner?" ”

"Well," Lin Nianhe smiled, "I love spicy food, and I'm picky." ”

Sun Guanghui asked innocently: "If you don't eat with us, what will happen to the dishes?" ”

Now each family eats vegetables by themselves, and the vegetable plot in the backyard of the educated youth point is planted by their old intellectuals, and they usually take turns to clean up.

In this era when a ration is life, even if there is no shortage of vegetables in the countryside, it is impossible to give them to others casually.

Lin Nianhe is not short of vegetables, but she still can't take them out, in the face of Sun Guanghui's concern, she can only say: "I eat less, it is enough to open a small plot of land in front of the door." ”

Sun Guanghui once again realized that Lin Zhiqing was thinking about going out alone.

He nodded: "Okay, then I'll tell them later, I don't have much to do these days, if you want to open up the land, I'll help you." ”

Sun Guanghui has been in the countryside for three years, and he can do any job, and he is the existence of the big brother in the educated youth point.

Although he is honest and honest, he is very measured, and everyone does the work of the young people together, but he will not take the initiative to pull others together with this kind of personal help.

"Thank you, Comrade Sun."

Lin Nianhe said goodbye to Sun Guanghui and set foot on the path of the ten-mile brigade with his little hand.

Sun Guanghui looked at her back and smiled helplessly.

I don't know how to worry now, and when Ming'er goes to do farm work, I'm afraid it will wilt.

He turned to go back, and only after nailing two stakes did he heard a clear male voice from the door:

"Comrade, is Lin Nianhe here?"
