The three sides of the shed were enclosed with grass and straw prepared in advance, and then thick bean grass and wheat straw were spread on the ground, and reed mats were placed on the top, which was the floor where the villagers rested.

Then build a few simple houses, put pots and pans, is where they cook rice and boil water, every day there will be people to cook rice and boil water, for the villagers to do a good job of logistics for the villagers who repair the river.

After all the people arrived, the county magistrate stood at the top of the river, took the horn and began to mobilize, and with the small red flag in his hand waving, the construction of the river officially began.

After the start of construction, the whole river red flag is displayed, the voices of the people are boiling, the sound of the trumpet, the shouting, one after another, the scene is in full swing, extremely spectacular, shocking.

It was the end of autumn and the beginning of winter, and the weather was relatively cold in the morning and evening, but the villagers were all wearing thin sweatshirts, and some even went into battle shirtless.

Chai Jianmin was assigned the position of the cart puller by the village chief, asked him to put the tripping rope on his shoulder, and walked in the front, and there were four people on both sides of a car, one of whom was Chen Dazhu.

Several people tied their ropes to the board, and the five of them bent over, shouted in unison, and struggled their legs to climb uphill step by step.

Chai Jianmin pulled the rope and walked in front of the most tiring, to climb the slope, every step has to take a lot of effort, because if you don't exert force, the rope on your shoulders will definitely be loosened, and the people behind will scold when they see it.

Even if you are tired and have no strength, you must hold the rope tightly, make a hard appearance, and after climbing uphill, turn the cart around, turn the soil down, and then trot, come to the bottom of the river to continue loading, wait for departure, and repeat until you rest in the middle, so that you can stop and breathe for a while.

Towards ten o'clock in the afternoon, everyone's stomach began to rumble, and they looked forward to finishing work early to eat, and the speed of work slowed down significantly.

When everyone heard a whistle, they rushed back to the shed, washed their hands with cold water, wiped their faces, and went straight to the simple room.

The house is not far from the shed, and the daily food is not bad, basically a large piece of white bread, cabbage, radish, vermicelli, etc., and you can eat a meal of meat every two days.

White flour buns are unlimited, and each person can only hold one bowl, a large amount of rice can eat many large buns, and a small amount of rice can also eat two or three steamed buns per meal.

Xu Laidi sat by the river and ate the buns, as well as the meat in the bowl, with a happy light in her eyes, since she fell out with Cheng Qiao, she has never eaten a bite of meat.

I didn't expect to come here to dig the river, and the first meal was eaten with white film and meat, although the work was a little harder, but at least I could sacrifice the five internal organs temple.

Chen Dazhu also came to Xu Laidi's side with steamed buns and vegetables, and gave the meat in his bowl to Xu Laidi, Xu Laidi was stunned for a moment, but he also ate it unceremoniously, after all, the meat everyone got was so small two pieces.

"Thank you, Brother Dazhu."

"No thanks, when you work, put it to the side, so you can't see it if you're lazy."

"yes, got it."

Xu Laidi knew that repairing the river was hard, but he didn't expect it to be so bitter, her hands were blistered for half a day, and she didn't have rubber shoes, a pair of cloth shoes soaked in mud every day, and it was estimated that she should be scrapped when she returned to the village.

"When I go back, I'll buy you a pair of cloth shoes, and I'll also go back to you with money and food, and I can't protect you now."

Brother Xu nodded, everyone slept in a big shed, they were too tired during the day, and they would sleep to death at night.

After resting for a quarter of an hour after dinner, the whistle for work sounded, Xu Laidi could only hold on to his two sore legs, picked up a shovel and began to dig the mud, Chen Dazhu looked at Xu Laidi affectionately, and when his eyes drooped, a cold light was covered.

After dinner, the villagers lay down on the floor of their sheds to rest, unable to take a bath due to the conditions, so they could only wipe their bodies with warm water.

Most of the men don't pay attention to personal hygiene, they don't wash at all and go to sleep, inside the full shed, the smell of feet and sweat comes to the nose, Chai Jianmin can't bear to move the bunk to the outside.

Before falling asleep, everyone had to gossip for a while, of course, the broken shoes in Xiangyang Village were brought up again, and everyone decided to get up early tomorrow to see what the broken shoes looked like.

Chai Jianmin smiled sadly, but he didn't notice the gaze that Chen Dazhu peeked at him, it was the gaze of a dead man, and there was no temperature at all.

Slowly, the shed fell silent, and everyone was tired and snoring, which sounded accustomed to being tired after a long day's work.

The whistle blew on the job, Chai Jianmin felt that he hadn't slept for long, he really didn't want to get up, especially when he put on the sweat-soaked clothes that had not been dried yesterday, he felt uncomfortable, and he was almost the last to leave the shed.

Of course, his friction made the village chief feel that his face was dull, and he scolded him without giving face, Chai Jianmin secretly rolled his eyes, and still took breakfast and ate it before walking to the bottom of the river.

Today, the villagers of the various villages were clearly not focused on their work, and they remembered what they had said last night, asking everywhere which woman was the broken shoe.

Of course, Chai Jianmin would not be stupid to tell people that this woman was a broken shoe, he had been targeted by the village chief, but he couldn't die again, but Chen Dazhu could.

He deliberately muttered to himself with a sad face, obviously the little girl had taken a fancy to her, but she just changed her object, and she became a broken shoe.

The sharp-eared person's eyes moved, and he quietly approached Chen Dazhu, and asked with concern, Chen Dazhu also seemed to have found the object to confide in, and added and subtracted a few words about Chai Jianmin and Xu Laidi.

Although Chen Dazhu said it very clumsyly, he also made Chai Jianmin's meanness and Xu Laidi's greed clear, which made everyone very sympathetic to such an honest man who was bullied by educated youth.

The way they looked at Chai Jianmin and Xu Laidi's eyes changed, the relationship between the villagers and the educated youth was not very harmonious in the first place, and now it just gave them a chance to vent their anger.

There is no one around Chai Jianmin, and the villagers are still appropriately tolerant of men, but Xu Laidi's side is full of people.

Everyone finally saw Brother Xu Lai's appearance clearly, hey, he doesn't look good, no wonder the old man said that ugly people are too weird, and they have to cheat honest people about their rations when they look like this.

Xu Laidi was surrounded by so many men in the middle, and they were all men from other villages, and he knew that something was wrong, it must have been Chai Jianmin's ghost.
