Chapter 21: There are rivers and lakes where there are people
Ye Junluan just smiled friendlyly, and didn't dare to comment on them, anyway, he was just a child, what could he say to their strangers?
The child, who was about his age, looked like he was frightened by the consternation in his eyes.
He gave the child a kind smile, and the child peeked at him, curious about him in the old man's arms.
The two young men did not speak, their eyes looked out of the carriage window.
This is observing the surrounding road conditions and the surrounding villages!
Seeing that they entered such a large village, and your houses are not so dilapidated, at least not so many thatched houses!
When someone builds a thatched house, they are all used to put firewood or sundries!
Ye Xinfa stopped the car at the entrance of the village, it was already evening, and the people who went to work were getting off work, and when the captain came back to catch the carriage, there were many people parked on the side of the road to watch!
He called a man and told him to drive the carriage to where it should be.
The man nodded and agreed, it was good to have oxen to drive to plough the land when he was working, and the horses had never been driven, so he was just addicted!
The two young men helped the two old men out of the carriage and took their luggage with them, as well as the child!
Ye Xinfa picked up his son and took them to the cowshed!
Qiancun is relatively large, with a larger population and more fields, perhaps in the south, where spring is like spring all year round, and in winter the cattle have grass to eat.
In this place with beautiful mountains and rivers, as long as you are not a lazy person, and there are no people who are dragged down by your family, a large family cannot eat enough food and clothing every day, and you should not starve to death in this environment.
Of course, there will be lazy people who will starve to death!
There are 15 teams, each team has a steak, each cowshed has a few cows, and there are people who watch the cows!
They are not the first, hopefully they are the last.
Cattle are a valuable property of a village, so the place to stay is also a mud brick house, just living next to the cowshed, it will smell a little.
When the two young people were settled, the two old people and the children, they saw that the environment was much better than in some other places!
As long as you take two stools, add wooden planks to build a bed, and take straw if you don't have a quilt, it's already June or July, and you don't need a quilt anymore, and it will be very hot at night!
It's winter to be afraid of!
Two young people, seeing that there were people keeping vigil here, there were beds and rotten mats!
There's also a rotten clay stove here, and a rotten pot, barely able to cook!
It's a tough environment.
After the two young people made arrangements, they went to the brigade headquarters to borrow grain, and in the future, they watched the cattle here to do things, and exchanged labor for food.
They decentralize the reformed people, they can give them food, it's good if they don't starve to death, it's impossible to divide the money at the end of the year, and it also restricts freedom!
They are not intellectuals.
Old people and children come here, old and young, can they support themselves with their hands?
Ye Xinfa used two young people to settle them, and then he held his son and arranged for the person who used to watch the cattle here, so he didn't have to guard here.
Ye Xinfa took his son home first, and occasionally met people, and saw the captain walking around with his son in his arms.
There will also be people who are concerned to say a few words, and more people care on the surface, but in fact, there are many wonderful thoughts in their hearts.
Cause certain contradictions, in addition to the interests of the, the lazy, and certain people.
Ye Xinfa occasionally asks Ye Junluan to call someone, uncle, uncle, aunt, or sister-in-law or something, but sometimes he doesn't see each other!
Ye Junluan saw a lot of people this day, the appearance of these people you live in, the family background of those people is not clear!
I heard my father say that the village of more than 3,000 people is already one of the largest in their town.
Ye Xin sent his son to the door, watched his son enter the house, and went to run errands again.
When Ye Junluan returned home, his parents and several sisters had already left work, and the other few younger sisters were at home, and they were also helping with what they should be helping!
"Miscellaneous trees, where's your dad? Why is it only you who came back?? ”
Yao Hanxin didn't see her husband just now, but when she saw her son's red face, she took out a handkerchief to wipe his sweat!
"Daddy, there's something to do!" Ye Junluan didn't break his mouth.
"Eighth brother, is it fun to go outside? What about sugar, you say? "Ye Qinlei, the second sister, ran out first!
The eldest sister, with the other five sisters, also came out!
Ye Junluan took a handful of White Rabbit toffee from his pocket, in fact, in the space, there was actually fruit candy, but he didn't take it out!
Deliberately carrying a small pocket, holding those fruit candies and not giving them all to my sisters!
"Wow! White rabbit toffee. ”
Ye Junluan looked at the happy appearance of each sister, two grains of candy per person, so satisfied!
He doesn't like to eat that much, after all, he is an adult soul, and he is not so greedy for snacks!
Yao Hanxin arranged for his daughters to work, the pigs had to be fed, the chickens had to be fed, and the pig food had to be cooked, and they had to cook rice.
She took advantage of this time to prepare pickles after some vegetables that had been cut in the morning, and after cooling and drying water.
They belong to the south, they don't like to eat spicy, pickled plum cabbage, and sauerkraut will not be spicy, only a little more salt!
They also pickle radishes, or dry them!
Even those sweet potato seedlings will be chopped and dried, as there will be no pigweed in the future, and when feeding the pigs, these dried pigweeds will come in handy!
Ye Xinfa came back very late, Yao Hanxin, his daughter, and his sons all ate first, and then took a bath and then took a bath!
"Why did you come back so late?"
"Don't mention it, some people like to make trouble, bad luck!" Ye Xinfa returned to the brigade headquarters before, and the two young people helped the two old men borrow food, and they were being troubled!
The accountant in the village said that he had not received the news, and he had not heard the captain say that he could borrow grain, and that these people had come here to change their ways, so let them figure out their own way!
They have a sense of solidarity with these people from other places, and if someone comes, it is tantamount to robbing them of their interests.
robbed them of their food.
Ye Xinfa is a good captain, but every team arranges people to work, and the team leader arranges them, and some of those people are weak and old, and they have to let them do the dirtiest work and the most tiring work.
The fertilizer in the field must be carried manually, and these dirty and smelly jobs are relatively high for farmers to do!
He's not easy to do as a captain, if he arranges it here, someone over there deliberately pulls the ponytail, and he can't see everything, and it's very annoying to go to solve the trouble.
Sleeping at night, Ye Junluan looked at his parents, he thought about it, and still told his father what he wanted to say during the day!
"Dad, it's been a few years since we took the college entrance examination, let's look farther, now it may be that we are facing the food barrier, be cautious!"
Ye Xinfa and his wife were tired for a day, and they had already laid down!
Hearing their son's words, they remembered what their son said to the white-haired old man, and suddenly their tired bodies and spirits returned!
When I think of the days when I may not have enough food and clothing, in addition to their family, there are relatives and friends on a blind date, worry!
"Ah, what then? Did the white-haired old man say something unknown? ”
Ye Xin whispered, he really wants to know the future, knows the direction of the future, for them now, if they can know the heavens, the direction of the future will not be confused!
"Can't take the college entrance examination for ten years? So your sister, they can't go to college? ”
Yao Hanxin and his wife didn't think about not letting their daughter go to college, as long as they have the ability to go to school, they will go to study for them, unless they are incapable!
"The sisters are not very big, and when the time comes to take the college entrance examination, those in their 30s can also take their children to school!"
Ye Junluan has read some things in the newspaper news, he himself has not gone to college, he has not personally experienced it, this is telling a story!
