34. Stepping stones
Yan Shoucheng didn't tell Su Ji about these things, and Su Ji didn't specifically inquire about what he did outside.
The two closed the door and lived their own little life peacefully, and did not come out of their own house until the tenth day of the first month.
Early in the morning, after Su Ji saw Yan Shoucheng leave, he entered his own space.
It has not been taken care of for nearly a month, and the corn in the space has reached the time of harvest.
In the cornfield, which was a head taller than Su Qi, there were two corns hanging on the waist, and the yellow corn kernels stretched out the corn leaves, beckoning Su Qi to quickly collect it.
I have to say that the water and soil in this space are good, the same corn seeds, the corn outside is shriveled and dry, and the corn in the space is smart, one is fuller than the other.
When sowing seeds before, Su Qi had already discovered that the more he planted, the more land he would have.
Su Ji didn't wait long, and saw that the time was right, so he started working left and right.
According to the order of harvesting the corn, Su Qi broke the corn from the corn stalk, and after tearing off the excess leaves, Su Qi hung the corn up.
The corn in the two fields, when Su Ji planted it, he didn't even use up half a year's corn seeds. And the corn that was harvested was hung with wooden poles two meters high.
After Su Qi finished working on a few pieces of land in the space, he suddenly realized that four days had passed, and it was the Lantern Festival in a blink of an eye.
Out of the space, Su Qi walked around the village, and I don't know when, every household has already hung lanterns.
Different from later generations, the streets and alleys are red, and the lanterns of each house in this era are all pasted with paper, red, blue, green, purple, all kinds of colors, coupled with the dim candlelight, Su Ji always has a feeling of goosebumps.
Anyway, there was a lively New Year's month, and Su Ji didn't sweep everyone's interest, and went home to do it.
If there is no red paper, it looks like the same thing to use the red cloth that has not been used up for marriage and cover it on the crooked skeleton of the building.
The village will enter the meeting on the 15th night, and the old and young people in the village will follow the procession and walk around the village.
Su Ji followed at the door of his own house.
Compared with later generations, firecrackers are banned, and the festival is also a dead house at home, Su Ji is still the first time to feel the excitement of the Lantern Festival.
After that night, Su Ji was a little more understanding of the village, and he was a lot more polite to the villagers.
The first month has not yet passed, and Yan Fusheng, who has not been in person for a long time, suddenly boarded the door of Su Qi's house.
When Su Qi saw Yan Fusheng, he hummed back in a small tune: "Is there something wrong with looking for me?" ”
With a hint of impatience, Yan Fusheng asked, "The loudspeaker shouted that you were going to a meeting, why didn't you come over?" ”
Su Ji raised his eyebrows and responded: "There are so many people in the village, you don't call anyone, just ask me to go alone, who knows what's going on." ”
Yan Fusheng was angry at the bottom of his heart, but thinking of Yan Shoucheng's warning before leaving, he forced himself to calm down and explained to Su Qi: "In the first month, there was a meeting in the town, saying that there were no conditions before, and many people couldn't afford to read, and they didn't know a few words. In order to keep up with the development of the times of the boss and eliminate illiteracy, the people of each village were required to organize literacy classes. ”
"I know a few words, but it's still far from teaching others, thinking that you and Xia Zhiqing are the highest level of education in the village, I think if I can discuss a charter on this matter."
Su Ji did not answer immediately.
Literacy class, if Su Ji didn't remember the fork, this matter is an important part of the heroine's fortune in the original book.
Su Ji rummaged through his memory, and it took a while to remember the development of this incident in the original book.
In the original book, there was not much to eat at this time when the literacy class was held, and the original body was still living in the compound at that time.
is different from Yan Fusheng's door-to-door invitation this time, the original body was when he was climbing the corner of the wall, listening to the news that Yan Fusheng and Wang Hongying were chatting about.
The original body didn't wait for Yan Fusheng to mention it himself, and when he ate the next day, he volunteered to recommend himself.
At that time, Xia Yulu had been reborn, and she wanted to make a good impression on the people in the village, and she was also determined to win the literacy class.
Knowing that Yan Fusheng would be biased towards the original body, Xia Yulu also started to lay out early, brainwashing the young people in the village and instilling his own goodness.
No matter how good the popularity is, it can't compare to the relationship.
The original body and Xia Yulu were red in the face of the discussion meeting, and they were just one fuse away from fighting.
The two quarreled for an hour, but in the end, Yan Fusheng made the decision and handed over the matter to the original body.
The original body was triumphant, thinking that he had won Xia Yulu's game, and showed off in front of Xia Yulu, but he didn't know that he had unknowingly become a thorn in Xia Yulu's side, and this incident was destined to become Xia Yulu's stepping stone.
Many of the people in the village have been illiterate all their lives. My ancestors were illiterate and didn't read, but they all lived, and when it was their turn, they didn't think it was a special thing not to read.
It wasn't until after the literacy class opened that they hurriedly entered the classroom and walked through the motions, then turned around and left.
The literacy class lasted for a week, and very few people attended, most of whom still wanted to see the original ugly.
The literacy class was unsuccessful, and Yan Fusheng went to the town to hold a meeting and was arrested and criticized for a long time.
After Yan Fusheng returned to the village, he put pressure on the original body.
In a hurry, the original body thought of inspiring everyone with food.
As soon as they heard that they could still distribute food when they went to class, the enthusiasm of the villagers increased. From the 80-year-old dizzy old man, to the baby who can't even speak, and even the bachelor who takes the dog as his family, all of them participated in the literacy class.
The original body looked at her achievements and was complacent, but within a week, her dream was shattered.
The people who participated in the literacy class turned their heads to exchange their bodies for food, but they never thought that the exchange of food in class was just a gimmick, and there were only a few grains of rice in total, and there were only a few grains in total.
Without incentives, the people in the village did not participate in the literacy class, and they were even more complaining about the original body.
Yan Fusheng has been proud all his life, he feels that he is an official and leads a village, but he didn't expect to lose such a big face when he gets old.
Fortunately, Xia Yulu stood up and gave advice to Yan Fusheng, persuaded Yan Fusheng to open a warehouse and release grain, and settled Su Qi's old accounts clearly.
It also provides a way to earn work in classes, encourages villagers to participate, and does not cost more food.
The behavior of the original body and Xia Yulu, you can see the superiority when you compare it, and the original body knows that she has made a stepping stone, and she is so ashamed that she hasn't gone out for a month.
"Have you figured it out?"
Yan Fusheng interrupted Su Qi's contemplation.
Su Qi suddenly sobered up, and refused without hesitation for a moment: "I'm not interested." In terms of academic qualifications, Xia Yulu is higher than me, and in terms of doing things, Xia Yulu is more reliable than me, you can just find her directly. ”
