Chapter 62: Chopping wood
The others looked at each other.
"This matter is voluntary, since they are not willing to sweep the snow of their own nests, let's just clear the road we should sweep and the snow of our own nests.
I can't force anyone to do this, and if you have any opinions, you can make your own decisions.
After all, this is not my official act, but my personal advice to you. ”
Xia Zhi said to everyone very sincerely, after all, I am willing to do this, and she knows the consequences, others don't know, many people really think she is meddling.
Although most of the time she knows this experience, it is obviously not so easy to be recognized by others.
I'm not ready to be recognized by others.
People are like this, if they don't suffer a loss, they won't know the consequences, and they will always feel that others are pointing fingers.
Liu Haidong and Zhao Hong shook their heads,
"No, we listen to you on the summer solstice. Anyway, there is nothing to do, we are resting in the nest in the ground, there are no books here, no newspapers are needed.
It's better to come out and do some work, and you can still move and warm up a little bit.
Is Comrade Xia Zhi, can you make a request for you? ”
Liu Haidong came up with his face entangled.
"Big nephew, what do you want to do?"
Liu Zhiyan had a cold face, looking at Liu Haidong and seeing that he was not in the stream, she was a little angry, she was also his aunt and grandmother.
"Auntie, don't be like this, I'm not a bad person, I just look at the smell of food coming from the nest where you and Xia Solstice are located.
You know who cooks when we're at home?
With my two knives, it is not easy to cook rice, but it is too difficult to make it delicious.
After living here for a few months, I almost vomited when I ate my own cooking, so I discussed whether we could build a fire.
You see how pitiful the two of us are big men, we have been hungry and thin for the past few months, and we have to rest immediately, and we can't go to the canteen of the construction site to mix rice.
We have to come back and cook our own food, we are willing to send the food over, let's work together, okay? ”
When Liu Zhiyan heard this, she hurriedly waved her hand,
"You can pull it down. Who's partnering with you?
It's not that you don't know, Captain Zhou eats with us every day, and you came over to rub Captain Zhou's food? ”
Liu Haidong silently retracted his head, he forgot about Captain Zhou.
Forget that Captain Zhou eats three meals a day and reports to Diwozi on time.
Alas, what bad luck.
"It's definitely not okay to eat on weekdays, you can only solve the cooking thing by yourself, it's not a matter of one or two days, if you really want to cook with us, I'm afraid we won't be happy."
After all, who wants to come back from work by themselves, who is already tired and humming, and still have to cook for everyone?
Will you be happy to put it on you? ”
Xia Zhi's words with a smile immediately made Wang Zhiguo, who lived with Liu Haidong and him, shake his head.
"That's certainly not a pleasure."
"That's right, compare your heart to your heart, why do lesbians want to cook for you?
Even Liu Qianqian came to us to help us fetch firewood and water, and usually we would protect us when we went out and do some physical work within our ability. ”
"But we can do it."
Liu Haidong felt that he could struggle, although Captain Zhou was strict, but Captain Zhou couldn't stop others from cooking together.
"You really don't have to think about cooking, although you can do it, but Liu Qianjin alone has already completed the work of the two of us, and if you come, it will become the credit of Liu Qianqian.
In fact, it is not so difficult for two people to cook, if you encounter any problems in cooking and do not understand, you can come to us and ask us, and we can also guide you.
And if it's just two people, you're in a good position to coordinate the relationship.
Cooking by yourself is delicious, and in the future, you will marry your daughter-in-law, and you can also use your good cooking skills to make your daughter-in-law happy and convinced. ”
When Liu Haidong heard this, he couldn't help laughing.
"Alas, when you're here, what do you want to marry a daughter-in-law?
We have more women and fewer men here, where are we going to marry a daughter-in-law? ”
Everyone couldn't help but laugh, and this matter was over.
Dozens of people began to clear the snow in a hurry.
came to inform their little comrades, as soon as they saw that everyone was working, they felt that the captain's heart was still really much more, and I don't know why this time the educated youth were so easy to bring.
There are a lot fewer things than the educated youth in previous years, and they are very sensible, you see that the snow has just fallen for half a day, and people themselves run out to clear the snow.
Zhou Zhengan naturally didn't take this kind of trivial matter to heart, everyone spent it in the first snow, and after the snow stopped, the north wind blew, and the weather here entered the real cold.
At its highest, the temperature can drop to -40 degrees Celsius.
Generally speaking, the temperature in the nest is not bad, after all, the height of the nest is not enough, plus there is a fire wall inside, impermeable, and the insulation capacity is still good.
The educated youths are also cowering in their nests, and no one wants to go out.
But the saddest thing is that I have to go out to collect firewood every ten days and half a month, and if I don't collect firewood, the temperature of this nest will not be able to hold on.
Who can afford to burn charcoal these days? Everyone is using local materials.
Xia Zhi and Liu Zhiyan wore thick and thick clothes on this day, wearing scarves, hats, gloves and axes to go out to chop wood.
The splint on Liu Zhiyan's arm has been removed, and after the inspection of the hygienist, she is recovering well.
Basically, the arm can be restored to its original state.
It's just that the normal sense of broken tendons and bones has not yet arrived for three months.
But it's still no problem to do basic housework, this time I went out with Xia Solstice to chop wood, of course, it wasn't her who chopped firewood.
She is responsible for carrying firewood, even if she comes back with a bundle of firewood, she can reduce the burden on everyone.
At this time, they get along well with Liu Haidong and Zhao Hong, and every time they chop wood, more than a dozen big guys go together.
In this way, there is great strength in numbers.
Male comrades are responsible for chopping firewood, and female comrades are responsible for carrying firewood down.
Basically, male and female partners are not tired of work.
And it can also ensure safety, so if you go out, you are not afraid of encountering wild beasts.
They have to hurry out, the weather is gloomy, and it won't take half a day, I'm afraid it will snow again.
They wanted to avoid not being able to go out for a few days after the snow, so they went to fetch firewood in advance.
When I walked out of the nest, I saw other people.
Everyone talked and laughed, and walked directly to the reeds, the reeds are good in winter, the ground is frozen and hard, even those mud swamps will freeze hard.
In the winter, this is obviously the best place to chop firewood, and in addition to the reeds, there are more firewood near the reeds.
Due to the moist nature of the soil, it grows very luxuriantly here.
