Xu Damao had an accident, and Qin Huairu was the most anxious in the miscellaneous courtyard.

Qin Huairu had a deal with Xu Damao.

Xu Damao gave Qin Huairu twenty catties of stick noodles every month.

Sometimes, Xu Damao returned the money.

Especially when Xu Damao was in the scenery, he gave Qin Huairu more things.

However, Xu Damao didn't have a long time to go and fell.

As soon as Xu Damao fell, Qin Huairu panicked.

Because, if she doesn't rely on Xu Damao, her family won't have enough to eat.

At a time when every household basically can't eat enough, Qin Huairu's family can eat enough, and they can eat white noodles and meat from time to time, which is already a very good family.

"Without Xu Damao, what should I do next?" Qin Huairu was worried.

She never thought about it, and she was living on her own.

She's been looking for wrongs.

"Uncle Yi's side, he only gives some white noodles occasionally, and it doesn't last long."

"He Yuzhu has three children, Zhou Xiaoxia has no job, and his family is quite nervous, so he shouldn't be able to reap the benefits."

He Yuzhu has been married until now, has two sons and a daughter, and has lived a very happy life.

It's just that the expenses are too large, and He Yuzhu's salary doesn't have anything left every month.

The family can have a full meal, and it also depends on the lunch box that He Yuzhu gets back every day.

"Zhou Qiang? Zhou Qiang's salary is quite high, but, forget it, Zhou Qiang is not easy to mess with, and he can't afford to mess with him. Qin Huairu was jealous of Zhou Qiang, she always felt that Zhou Qiang's eyes could see through everything.

"Others, who has the money?"

"Who else can you rely on?"

Qin Huairu carefully calculated it and found that there was no one to find.

It's not so easy to find.

Without the stupid pillar in the TV series, even a pretty widow like Qin Huairu would not be easy to find a hardcore wrongdoer.

Qin Huairu can only find something to go home from time to time, but she also has to pay for the hue, and there is a certain risk, if the daughter-in-law comes to the door, it will be troublesome.

The life of the Jia family is not easy.

Time passed.

The life of Qin Huairu's family is gradually like other people's families, they can't eat enough and don't die of hunger.

White flour and meat are not so easy to eat.

Qin Huairu in the TV series grabbed the stupid pillar and got everything. In the end, Qin Huairu was the richest in the Miscellaneous Courtyard. Daughters can recruit sons-in-law, not ordinary rich, and almost all the houses in the entire compound are Qin Huairu's.

Not anymore, though.

He Yuzhu got married, and his family lived in peace and stability, without provoking the widow, nor raising the widow, her children, and her mother-in-law.

There are several members of Qin Huairu's family, their faces are not so ruddy, and they all look a little yellow and thin.

Time passed year after year.

Six or seven years, six or eight years.

Zhou Qiang's eldest sister, Zhou Juan, grew up and got married.

Wang Meili prepared a rich dowry for Zhou Juan.

Zhou Juan's husband is from the Agricultural Science Station, Zhou Qiang's subordinate, he is not bad, and he is a motivated young man.

Although they can't afford to buy three turns and one ring, they have a place to live separately at home, and the two of them also have a place to live, so they don't need Zhou Qiang to worry about it.

Zhou Juan's days were plain and happy.

Zhou Qiang's second sister Zhou Fang, after graduating from junior high school, Zhou Qiang used the job quota at home again to change jobs for Zhou Fang, working in a milk factory, and the work was not bad.

After working for a few years, after becoming an adult, Zhou Fang's marriage was a little troublesome.

She had a crush on a poor boy.

This poor boy has nothing at home, and he has a lot of debts.

If you get married, you won't have a place to live.

I can't afford to give a bride price, and I can't buy any of the three turns and one ring.

After Zhou Qiang saw this young man, he felt that he was okay, so he proposed to 'recruit a son-in-law' and asked the young man to 'plug the door upside down'.

The young man was thin-skinned and reluctant, but his family was not against it.

Because, the young man's family really has no money.

Zhou Qiang also promised to give a lot of dowry.

Under such circumstances, the young man didn't last long and married into the Zhou family of the miscellaneous courtyard.

They moved into the big room.

The small room is Zhou Sheng.

After graduating from junior high school, Zhou Sheng needed to go to the countryside to cut the queue.

Zhou Qiang asked Zhou Sheng to go to Zhouzhuang and follow Zhou Shan to farm together.

It didn't take long.

Zhou Qiang recruited Zhou Sheng into the Agricultural Science Station as a temporary worker.

After two years of work, he became a regular worker.

Later, when Zhou Sheng became an adult, he married a village flower in the village.

The wedding room was found by Zhou Qiang.

The situation is the same as Zhou Qiang's house, nominally borrowed, but in fact it was bought.

Of course, it was Zhou Qiang who paid for it.

The three turns and one ring of marriage, all kinds of supplies, were purchased by Zhou Qiang.

The two rooms in the compound were used by Zhou Fang.

Fast forward to the summer of 1976.

At night.

Zhou Qiang's house.

Zhou Qiang, Wang Meili, eldest daughter Zhou Yingying is 10 years old, second son Zhou Qian is 8 years old, and younger son Zhou Kun is 6 years old, watching TV in the yard together.

Zhou Qiang has changed in the past few years, saying that it is not big, but it is not small.

on the job.

In terms of planting and breeding, Zhou Qiang has made great contributions.

He insisted on sustainable agriculture.

We have been resisting the use of pesticides and fertilizers in large quantities.

Under Zhou Qiang's long-term resistance, and under the condition that Zhou Qiang publicized a lot of harms, everyone gradually had the concept of not easily using fertilizers and pesticides.

Nowadays, there are many kinds of 'farmhouse fertilizer', not Zhou Qiang's research alone.

Although the effect of farm fertilizer is not as fast as that of chemical fertilizer, it is not much worse.

The advantage is that it will not cause soil compaction, etc.

In terms of breeding, large-scale and standardized breeding began.

Large chicken farm, hatching chicks, feed making, letting the chicks run around every day (running chickens).

In the process of growing up the chickens, we resolutely put an end to various drugs such as hormones, and resolutely do it, so that everyone can eat a bite of chicken with confidence.

On the sow side.

From the time the sow is pregnant, it is a one-stop service.

There are also no additives in the feed, which guarantees the supply of conscientious pork.

The same is true for other farming.

Zhou Qiang has set strict standards.

After years of publicity and requirements, the breeding industry has rules that do not allow everyone to breed "poisonous poultry".

In terms of life, Zhou Qiang has not changed much.

Every day, it is the wife and children who are hot on the kang.

Wang Meili has not worked.

On the one hand, there are many children and they need to take care of them.

On the one hand, Zhou Qiang didn't want Wang Meili to go out and suffer.

"Brother Qiang, Sister Xiaoxia went to the canteen of a unit and became a temporary worker." When Wang Meili said this, the meaning was obvious, that is, she wanted to go out to work.

He Yuzhu's family, two sons are also about to become adults.

They have to think about their sons' marriages and children, and they have to prepare a bride price.

"Sister Xiaoxia is going to prepare a bride price for her son. Fortunately, they have a deaf old lady's house, so they don't have to look for another house. ”

The deaf old lady died.

When she died, she left the house to He Yuzhu.

The aftermath of the deaf old lady was handled by Yi Zhonghai.

He Yuzhu and Zhou Xiaoxia also served the deaf old lady for a while.

The deaf old lady always regarded He Yuzhu as her own grandson.

Now, the deaf old lady's house is where He Yuzhu's two sons live.

He Yushui's small room is where He Yuzhu's daughter lives.

In the TV series, these two houses were forcibly occupied by Qin Huairu's family.

Now, Qin Huairu's family of five is still crammed into one room.

"Brother Qiang, I also want to go out to work." Wang Meili still said it, the children have grown up, and she doesn't want to be idle at home every day.

"Want to work? Wait for next year, next year when Yingying goes to elementary school, I will find you a job. ”

"Brother Qiang, what kind of job can you find me? Go to the Agricultural Science Station? ”

"The temporary workers of the agricultural science station are well arranged, and other units need to find someone to ask."

"Let's go to the agricultural station as a temporary worker." Wang Meili didn't want Zhou Qiang to be too troublesome.

"We'll talk about that then. By the way, Beauty, I let you study when you're fine, did you learn? ”

"I've learned all the textbooks in high school, but what's the use of learning?"

"I can help my children with their homework after learning." Zhou Qiang did not say anything about the resumption of the college entrance examination next year. He just let Wang Meili study when she has free time. When he can take the college entrance examination, he wants Wang Meili to go to college.

Of course, Zhou Qiang also wants to be admitted to university justifiably, he wants a diploma.

Zhou Qiang's current level can be a professor at the university.

"Yingying's homework is simple and easy to tutor."

"Mom, last time there was a math problem, you said it wrong." Zhou Yingying interjected.

"No, I'm not wrong, it's your question that went wrong." Wang Meili talked to Zhou Yingying about primary school mathematics.

Small talk for a while.

"Dad, I still want to sleep here today." Zhou Yingying said.

In summer, the weather is hot.

Zhou Qiang built a small shed in the yard.

At night, burn some wormwood, put a few wooden beds, and you can sleep in the yard, which is very cool.

"Okay, let's sleep in the yard today."

After a brief tidying up, Zhou Qiang's family slept in the yard.

It's past three o'clock in the middle of the night.

Suddenly there was an earthquake.

Zhou Qiang woke up as soon as possible.

"Oh no, there's an earthquake!" Zhou Qiang shouted.

This voice not only woke up the family, but also woke up the neighbors.

"Dad, Mom," Zhou Yingying cried.

"Yingying is not afraid, Dad is here." Zhou Qiang picked up his daughter with one hand, hugged Wang Meili with the other, and let his two sons drag his clothes.

There was a shock for a moment.

Stopped.

"Don't be afraid, it's not an earthquake in the capital, it's an earthquake nearby, we just feel some tremors here." Zhou Qiang comforted his wife and children.

"I don't know how Zhou Juan and them are doing?" Wang Meili asked.

"It should be fine, the tremor is not obvious, the house they live in should be fine. However, I'm afraid it's going to rain later. ”

"Rain? So our shed is considered an earthquake shed? ”

"Yes, I'll call Zhou Fang and them over." Zhou Fang is close to here.

"Okay, go and get back."

Zhou Qiang took a flashlight and walked quickly to the miscellaneous courtyard.

The compound was also in a panic at this time.

Fortunately, Yi Zhonghai stood up and asked everyone to quickly build an earthquake shed, help each other, and stabilize the situation in time.

However, everyone found that Xu Damao did not come out of the house.

After Xu Damao returned from the labor camp, he lost his job as a projectionist at a rolling mill.

However, Xu Damao moved around and went to the cinema to work as a projectionist.

Xu Damao has been single in the past few years, not because he can't find a daughter-in-law, but because Xu Damao has a high vision and doesn't look down on ordinary people.

Xu Damao, who is single, continues to mess around and often goes to the pretty widow's house.

Among them, Qin Huairu is naturally indispensable.

Not long after Xu Damao came back, he renewed his relationship with Qin Huairu.

The two take what they need, and often meet secretly in the storeroom of the cinema.

This time, it was Qin Huairu who found out that Xu Damao was in the house and didn't come out.

"Stick terrier, go and see your Uncle Xu, he's still in the house." Qin Huairu has a little friendship with Xu Damao.

When Xu Damao was shaken, his legs were so frightened that he sat under the table and couldn't get out.

After Jia Terrier went in, he helped Xu Damao out.

Xu Damao is not only a villain, but also a coward.

But such people, most of the time, can mix well.

In the words of a deaf old lady, "A person like Xu Damao, when facing a devil, is a traitor." ”

Parvis.

Zhou Qiang is here.

"Second brother, why are you here?" Zhou Fang: They were busy building an earthquake shelter in the front yard.

"Xiaoqiang is here? Build an earthquake shelter here, do you want your family to come over? Yan Bugui said hello.

"No need, three masters, I have already set up an earthquake shelter over there, I will call Xiaofang and them over."

"All set? So fast? Yan Bugui was taken aback, because just a few minutes had passed since the earthquake.

"Three masters, I built it before, and I used it to enjoy the cool at night."

"So that's the case, now it's useful."

"Three masters, you are busy first.

Xiaofang, you come with me.

You don't have to bring anything. Zhou Qiang took Zhou Fang's family of four away.

A moment later.

Zhou Fang's family settled down at Zhou Qiang's house.

"Second brother, Sister Juan doesn't know what's going on?" Zhou Fang remembered Zhou Juan.

"It should be fine."

"What about Xiao Sheng?"

"Xiao Sheng will be fine.

It's been a change of face this day, and it's going to rain soon, so I'll find you some thick clothes. ”

Soon the rain poured down.

Zhou Qiang and the others hid under the shed, but they were fine.

After dawn.

Zhou Qiang began to cook.

He had moved the stove under the shed.

Rice, noodles, vegetables, meat, oil, salt, sauce and vinegar, there is no shortage of anything.

Meals were made quickly.

"Mmmm, it's still my second brother's cooking is delicious!" Zhou Fang was full of praise.

"Brother Qiang's cooking is really delicious, I have been learning from him for a long time, but it is not as good as him." Wang Meili also boasted.

"I also learned, but I can't learn home, it must be my second brother who left a hand, and he passed on the male but not the female, and the inside but not the outside." Zhou Fang is funny.

Everyone talked and laughed, and quickly finished breakfast.

"I'll go see Xiaojuan and Xiaosheng, don't go anywhere." Zhou Qiang told him a few words and left.

Miscellaneous courtyard.

It had just rained heavily.

Parvis.

Yan Bugui was discussing the matter of collective fire with everyone.

He asked the others to come out of the dishes.

He didn't come out with anything himself, and said that he built an earthquake shed, and his family produced the most wood.

At this moment, Yan Bugui's second son Yan Jiefang, the third son Yan Jiekuang, and his daughter Yan Jieyi came.

Yan Jiefang Zhenzhen said: "Let me tell you, I know all these woods, and they are all my brother and I, Yan Jiekuang, and my sister, who came back one by one at night."

Now it is returned to its rightful owner.

Come out for me, we're going to tear down this earthquake shed!" ”

Yes, the son of the noble family in Yanbu was not well educated, and he was a moth.

Yan Jiefang, Yan Jiekuang, and Yan Jieyi demolished the earthquake shed in the front yard together.

There is no earthquake shed.

Yan Bugui, the people in the front yard, can only go to the middle courtyard and the back yard to rub the earthquake shed.

When he went to the Intermediate Courtyard, Yan Bugui was still holding the TV in his arms.

His family also bought a TV, just a nine-inch small TV, Yanbu is very valuable, even if there is an earthquake, you have to take it out.

He laid down his life rather than his wealth.

But the earthquake shed in the middle courtyard is small and there are too many people.

In the backyard, Xu Damao asked Jia Terrier to help build the earthquake shed, and Xu Damao was the only one.

But when Qin Huairu and Yan Bugui wanted to borrow the earthquake shed, Xu Damao did not agree.

directly scolded Yan Bugui back, "The son of the third master demolished the earthquake shed and lived in our house, why?" ”

Yan Bugui and the others left in a gloomy manner.

At the critical moment, Xu Damao, this approach, is not easy to evaluate.

"Xiaojuan, you guys are okay here, come to me if you lack anything."

"Xiao Sheng, you can't do it here, come with me."

Zhou Qiang also brought Zhou Sheng's family home.

At noon, a group of people were eating, but it was also lively.

After eating.

"It's not in the middle of the battle, but the tremor is strong, so I think this earthquake must be very strong.

I'm going to take people to the earthquake relief, and you guys take care of yourselves at home." Zhou Qiang did not choose to be indifferent.

This time, he's going to step up and do something.

Agricultural Science Station.

Stationmaster Wang Baoguo has already begun to organize people to fight the earthquake and provide relief.

It's all voluntary, not forced.

But a lot of people came.

Zhou Qiang came and actively participated.

Soon, everyone set off with a large iron pot, grain, vegetables, meat and other daily necessities.

There are big trucks, there are tractors, maybe not fast, but there is no hesitation.

Everyone has only one idea, earthquake relief.
