52 Chapter 52

"Eh, Mommy...... Tap. "

Yu Xiulan put down the potion and slapped her on the back of the head, "What are you shouting, killing pigs!" Zhao Yunyun covered her mouth and snickered beside her.

Zhao Ke hissed, "It didn't hurt much, but you are drugged, and it hurts to death." "

"Let you be strong, you two are not in the way enough." Yu Xiulan glared at Zhao Ke fiercely, turned to Zhao Yunyun, and said viciously: "Come here." ”

Zhao Yunyun couldn't laugh immediately, "Third aunt, I don't need it......"

Yu Xiulan lowered her face and scolded: "Hurry up!"

Zhao Yunyun rubbed over and stretched out her hands.

As soon as Yu Xiulan raised her hand, Zhao Yunyun let out a "eh" and quickly retracted her hand.

"I haven't medicated yet."

Yu Xiulan glared at her, not angry.

Zhao Yunyun smiled dryly, "Then why do I hurt, hehe......"

Yu Xiulan grabbed her wrist with one hand to control her, and the other hand dipped the potion on her hand and applied it to her hand.

In an instant, Zhao Yunyun screamed more like killing a pig than Zhao Ke, tears flowed, and she couldn't stop crying.

Next door, Zhao Feng's roomβ€”β€”

Zhao Feng grinned when he heard this, and said to Zhao Rui: "I don't know, I think I have broken my hands and feet." Zhao Rui didn't move.

Zhao Feng looked sideways and was speechless: "......"

Good guys, snort.

Zhao Ke's roomβ€”β€”

Zhao Yunyun held her hands and pumped and matched.

Zhao Ke had medicine in his palm, and touched her with the back of his hand, "Don't cry, it's not that serious." ”

"Why not!" Zhao Yunyun cried bitterly, "My piece of skin seems to have been torn open repeatedly......"

Zhao Ke said: "Why don't I blow it to you?"

Zhao Yunyun snorted and stretched out her hands, "Hmm." ”

"Whew-"

"Whew-whew-"

Yu Xiulan returned to the house and heard Zhao Jianguo's snoring, the more she listened, the more annoyed she became, "Why is there such a bad thing." She couldn't hold back and directly slapped Zhao Jianguo.

"Eh-" Zhao Jianguo woke up, "What's wrong?" Yu Xiulan pretended that nothing happened, "It's okay, sleep with you." Zhao Jianguo instantly closed his eyes again

Eye, "Whew-Whew-"

Zhao Ke and they dug ditches, all relying on manpower, and it was very hard.

One less person will slow down the progress, but sometimes there is no way to reduce the number of people.

When the literacy class started, Zhuang Lan and Su Limei had to leave the team, and Zhao Ke also got there on the first day. The location is in the compound of the team committee.

Originally, according to Zhao Ke's expectations, two-thirds of the women in the village had to come to the class, but only one-third of them actually came, and even those who signed up at the beginning and decided to come did not come.

Zhuang Lan and Su Limei were not in a good mood when they saw so few people.

Zhao Ke knew that the people who didn't come were because she led people to dig ditches, so she had an opinion. But if she was afraid that others would have opinions, she wouldn't do it.

"It's okay, it's all a minor problem, and classes will continue as usual."

Zhuang Lan and Su Limei calmed down, moved out of the blackboard they had prepared in advance, and went to the first class.

The content of the first stage is Zhao Keding.

It is indeed important to eradicate illiteracy for women, but Zhao Ke believes that it is necessary to consider the actual situation and have practical use, so that women will be interested in listening.

In the previous literacy class in the village, everyone had learned to write names, learn simple numbers and calculations, so this time Zhao Ke started with the first stage of the literacy class, starting with the understanding of daily necessities and account books, receipts and various agreements.

Zhuang Lan taught the first class, first taught them to recognize words, just recognizing these words took up an hour of class, and then told everyone at the end of the class that Su Limei would teach them examples with various text traps in the next class.

It was all really useful stuff, and the women sat and didn't leave, and they were clamoring for them to talk more.

According to the lesson plan they set, Zhuang Lan told everyone: "This is the content of the next class, my task today has ended, and I want to hear it again tomorrow." "

Except for the women who were still attending the midwife training course, who remained here, the other women had no choice but to leave.

Su Limei looked at their expressions when they left, and whispered to Zhao Ke, who was listening, "Will there be more people tomorrow?"

"I think it will."

The corners of Su Limei's mouth curled up, "In the next class, we will take a random test of today's content, and if the results of the random test are not satisfactory, I will teach them to read and write again, and hang them first." "

Zhao Ke reminded: "Don't lose your enthusiasm. ”

Su Limei nodded, "Understood, the second half of the class will definitely bring a point." ”

Zhuang Lan packed up her things and gave them to Yin Zhi, who was training as a midwife

Qing gave up the place, "Let's go back to Zhiqing Point and send things to the outside of the village?" Su Limei said "tired" all over her face, but she didn't deny it, "Then let's go." ”

Zhao Ke said, "I'm waiting for you here." ”

The commune's midwifery training was scheduled for mid-July, and the first phase of the midwife's training had ended, and the original training was being repeated, and the second session should be completed by the time the commune was trained.

The last time Zhao Mian came back, Zhao Ketuo asked her to take the time to go to the Commune Women's Federation to ask if she could add someone to participate in the training, and there should be news when she came back this weekend.

She pondered that she would have to accompany the selected people to the commune, and then she would be absent from digging ditches for another day. There are too few people and the progress is too slow......

"Pig ......"

The sleeves were pulled, Zhao Ke lowered his head, saw that it was Tang Xiaowan, squatted down and asked with a smile: "Xiaowan, what's wrong?"

Tang Xiaowan often ran around the courtyard during this time, saw a lot of people, and became much bolder, directly pointing in the direction of the warehouse, and shouted anxiously: "Pig...... Pig ......"

It turned out that the piglet could not be found.

Zhao Ke squeezed her two little hands and said patiently: "The little pig has moved to a new home and does not live in the warehouse." Tang Xiaowan took her hand, dragged her out, and shouted in a milky voice: "Find ...... Look for pigs!"

Zhao Ke half-bowed, followed her strength and walked to the warehouse, coaxing as he walked: "After your mother finishes the lecture in a while, let her take you to see the piggy's new home, okay?"

Tang Xiaowan shook her head, wanting her to accompany her to see it.

Zhao Ke still had something to do, so he couldn't take her there, so he stretched out his hand and tried to carry her back. Tang Xiaowan's little hands pulled her hand hard, struggling not to let her hug. Suddenly, Tang Xiaowan seemed to be frightened, stopped struggling, and fell into Zhao Ke's arms.

Zhao Ke hugged his small body, raised his head, paused, and greeted: "Captain......"

Zhao Xinshan didn't even look at her, ignored her indifferently, and walked straight to the office. Accountant Niu walked behind and smiled at her to reassure her. Zhao Ke shook his head slightly, indicating that he didn't care.

Brigade Office –

As soon as Zhao Xinshan entered the room, the cigarette pouch was thrown on the table, making a clanging sound.

Vice Captain Xu raised his head and asked, "Are you angry with Zhao Ke again?" Those young people are ignorant, thinking that they can read some books and not listen to the old people, and sooner or later they will have to learn a lesson. "

Accountant Niu snorted dissatisfiedly: "Lao Xu, don't add fuel to the fire." ”

Vice Captain Xu sneered, "Don't look like a good person."

, If everyone had been stricter at the beginning, Zhao Ke would not have been able to ignore us old guys now. "

Accountant Niu said: "Zhao Ke usually respects us, how many young people are polite to her?"

"Kick the door of the old Qian family, and the old Qian family's complaints have come to me." Deputy Captain Xu shook his head helplessly, "We can't see it, but Zhao Ke used to always take the children in the village to make trouble, and now he doesn't listen to the arrangement of the team, and he is not surprised." "

He also asked Zhao Xinshan: "Old Zhao, are your sons and daughters in Zhao Jianguo now?" You have to educate Zhao Jianguo, the boss is not small, why are you still messing around with the child?"

It's okay for him not to mention his son and daughter, but when he mentions it, Zhao Xinshan's anger is churning: "When Yu Xiulan was the women's director, there was not so much to do, and when the three-month internship period came, I had to withdraw her, and I tossed blindly day by day." "

Accountant Niu wanted to persuade a few words, but there was Vice Captain Xu on the side, and the effect was not ideal.

At the same time, the educated youth of the educated youth point are also arguing.

The reason was Liu Xingxue's yin and yang anger towards Zhuang Lan and Su Limei, who had just come back: "I thought that I could get benefits by slapping my ass, but who knows, this wind direction has become too fast." "

Zhuang Lan grabbed Su Limei, "Director Zhao is still waiting for us, don't rub around here." ”

The two of them ignored Liu Xingxue, but Liu Xingxue chased them to stir up trouble: "People are from the village, broken bones and tendons, you still follow her to fight against the captain, don't toss yourself in." "

Su Limei was not convinced, "Then wait and see, see what we toss into!"

Fang Jing felt that they were stupid, and persuaded with "good intentions": "It is already difficult for our educated youths to produce a team in Zhao Village, you don't have to be thankless, and you will also bring other educated youths to follow and not be treated well in the village." "

"Speaking of which, I was afraid that we would affect you."

Zhuang Lan stood in front of Su Limei, with a stern face, "What about your ideals before you went to the countryside?" What about ambitions? If you lose the dignity and pride of the educated youth at the slightest setback, and forget the pride and ambition when you went to the countryside, what qualifications do you have to judge us?"

Su Limei lifted her chin proudly.

Fang Jing didn't feel ashamed at all, and blamed in turn: "I persuaded with kind words, but I was reprimanded by you, since we are not qualified, then we will not say anything in the future." "

"If you don't say it, I still have something to say."

Zhuang Lan's eyes looked at Fang Jing, Liu Xingxue, and Deng Haixin one by one, and asked word by word: "Have you read the book, don't you know how to dig ditches to prevent flooding?" The villagers are stubborn and old-fashioned,

Won't you tell them the truth over and over again?"

Deng Haixin moved his mouth, wanting to justify.

Zhuang Lan didn't give him a chance to speak: "Have you tried to do anything for the farmers after you went to the countryside?" If the village doesn't accept it, you give up? Can't you go back to the city for the rest of your life, and you will complain about the heavens and people for the rest of your life, and have nothing to do?"

"We're still young, we don't give up, and we don't want to do nothing. We are going to work with Director Zhao, and we will definitely do it well! Whether it makes sense or not, I don't need you to evaluate it!"

After Zhuang Lan finished speaking, she pulled Su Limei to turn around and step out of the courtyard.

Su Limei quietly gave Zhuang Lan a thumbs up.

In the courtyard, Liu Xingxue and Deng Haixin were silent.

When they went to the countryside, they were not full of pride, but the hard life in the countryside and the daily work smoothed out their passion and magnified their dark side.

When people are in high spirits, it is always easier to be calm.

But when people are constantly at a low point, the negative magnetic field will involuntarily expand. Who wouldn't want to live their lives in high spirits?

Deng Haixin couldn't help but say: "Actually, I think the drainage canal is feasible, but the village is so big, Director Zhao may not organize those people to dig and build a sufficient scale ......."

Liu Xingxue didn't respond.

Fang Jing pursed the corners of her lips sarcastically when she heard Deng Haixin's words. She doesn't want to work as a coolie in the countryside all the time, she wants to go back to the city, she must go back to the city!

On the weekend, Zhao Mian returned to the village on vacation and brought back two registration forms for Zhao Ke.

"Director Zhang of the Women's Federation said that there are other production teams that are not active in signing up, and the number of people is not enough, if our team can bring out two more people, it would be great."

Zhao Ke held two thin pieces of paper, and the corners of his mouth rose, "Don't talk about three people, if she really lets go of the number of women in our brigade, I can fill her training class." "

Zhao Mian smiled, "You have trained so many midwives, how can there be enough places to deliver midwives." "

"You can't say that, you can't let go of the opportunity to learn."

Zhao Ke has read the newspapers and materials of the Women's Federation, and there is a shortage of midwives all over the country, one midwife in one village is enough, and three midwives are indeed not enough to eat water, but when it is enlarged to their entire province and city, it is not enough to see at all.

Zhao Ke is very confident, "I have cultivated people, and if there is an opportunity in the future, I will be able to send them all out, and maybe they can still eat public food." "

People only

If you have seen more sides of the world, you will live forever.

Zhao Mian looked at her with pride in her eyes, and then turned distressed, "You are dark and thin, it's very hard, right?"

Zhao Ke leaned on his sister's shoulder, and his eyes were shining and said to her: "It's very strange, I used to be afraid of hardship, tiredness and trouble, but recently I have been working so hard, I don't feel annoyed at all, but I am full of energy." "

Zhao Mian looked at her and said with a smile: "You used to be always lazy, but now you have changed a lot." ”

Zhao Ke smiled brightly, "Has there been any change to be beautiful?" Zhao Mian looked at her and nodded seriously, "Yes." ”

"It's beautiful even when it's dark?" Zhao Ke picked up the mirror and looked at his face, "Comrade Yu Xiulan also said this morning that I am like a black briquette, and I can't get married." "

Zhao Mian shook his head, "No, people who like you will see your shining soul." "Wow~" Zhao Ke was overjoyed by his sister's words, "Is it so good to be your sister?" To get such a big compliment?"

Zhao Mian said seriously: "It's not a compliment, everyone who works hard with your pace is attracted by your personality strength, this is a fact." "

If you continue to talk about it, Zhao Ke will be embarrassed.

She put her arms around her sister's shoulders, raised her eyebrows and asked, "Is there anyone who is attracted by my sister's personality charm?" Zhao Mian's face was calm, and his eyes were silent.

Yo he~

Did someone really steal her cabbage?

Zhao Ke sat upright and asked, "Is there a situation?" What's going on? Sister, tell me about it. ”

Zhao Mian pursed his lips slightly, and said honestly: "Master Yu's son Fang Xu has sent me two letters, the first one I politely replied to, and the second one has not been replied to. "

I know he has bad intentions!

Zhao Ke gritted his teeth in his heart at the person who was worried about his sister, and on the surface he was still nothing, "Why?"

"The first letter he sent me asked about Master Yu's situation, and he said that he was worried about Master Yu's good news or bad news, so I replied to a letter." Zhao Ke snorted lightly: The white bone spirit sent food to Tang Seng, with bad intentions.

"Less than two weeks later, he sent a second letter asking if I could keep in touch, and I didn't reply to him because I didn't think it was right to communicate with the young man like this." Zhao Mian paused, "Out of politeness, I still have to respond." "

She is just too kind, and she can't be too polite to the big-tailed wolf, otherwise the other party will get an inch. Zhao Ke asked, "When did you receive the letter?"

> "the day before yesterday." "

If the distance is long, it is inconvenient to send letters, and it is normal to go back and forth for ten days and half a month, so he has to be restless for a few more days.

Zhao Ke secretly poked and poked, "Then come back three or four days later, he should be able to know what my sister means, and my sister can also euphemistically say in the reply that you are busy, and it is inconvenient to communicate with people frequently." "

It's not a euphemism, it's almost a joke. But Zhao Mian listened to his sister's words very much, and directly agreed.

In a ravine, Fang Xu repeatedly told the guards: "If you have my letter, you must tell me as soon as possible." The guard agreed, "Don't worry, Researcher Fang." Fang Xu looked forward to it.

And Zhao Mian, who was far away in Zhao Village, did not rest on vacation, and followed Zhao Ke to dig drainage canals. Zhao Ke persuaded her: "Sister, you finally have a holiday, just go home and have a good rest." ”

"It's okay, I'm used to working, and if I have one more person and more effort, I can finish it sooner." They need to dig at least three drainage canals from the head of the field to the ditch.

Due to the shortage of manpower, there was no way to expand the size of the drainage canal, so for the sake of efficiency, the ditch could only be dug about half a meter wide and high. It has now taken a week to dig about 2,000 meters, and it seems that there is still no time to reach the target.

In July, the sky is clear, the sky is clear, the people are working under the sun, and the torment is multiplied and multiplied than usual. Zhao Ke, the leader, could not show the slightest discouragement, and encouraged everyone energetically every day.

She also paid out of her own pocket to let Zhao Mian buy some rock candy and bring it back, yesterday she cooked a pot full of mung bean water at home, put it in the well at night and hung it, and brought it to everyone to drink today.

Zhu Jianyi held his own bowl, sat on the mound and drank sweet mung bean water, and sighed: "When did you ever work for others with sugar water, don't say anything else, our sister is really generous." "

Zhao Feng corrected: "My sister, that's my sister." ”

Zhu Jianyi's face darkened, bumped his shoulder, and smiled with big teeth, "I'm so righteous, what do I care about, isn't your sister my sister?"

He was indeed righteous enough, and Zhao Feng did not refute his kissing.

Zhu Jianyi peeked at the white glowing Zhao Mian not far away, and whispered: "Sister Mian is so good-looking, it looks better when you enter the commune." Zhao Feng's face darkened suddenly, and when he finished drinking the mung bean water, he strangled his neck with his elbow, "Look again!" Look at me hammering you to death!" Zhu Jianyi struggled desperately, and after breaking free, he ran away quickly, making cheap mistakes while running, "I'll just watch!" Zhao Feng was so angry that he chased after him, "Don't let me catch it!"

When Zhu Jianyi saw that he was really chasing after him, he didn't care about his mouth and ran for his life frantically.

Zhao Feng has a good physique and is swarthy

The black shoulders were shining with oily light, and they swung quickly, and soon caught up with Zhu Jianyi, and a flying pounce pressed the person to the grass.

The two scuffled together, and the fluttering surroundings were covered in white ash.

Wang Laosan took a sip of cold mung bean water and sighed to Zhao Rui: "Young man, you are so energetic." Zhao Rui nodded, "It's quite noisy." ”

Zhao Jianguo couldn't help laughing, "You two are twenty-year-old boys, and you still feel emotional, I haven't spoken yet." Everyone around laughed.

Fu Hang sat on the mound not far away, his feet on the bottom of the ditch, his long legs stretched casually, and quietly looked at Zhao Ke who was smiling and sunny.

Lin Haiyang mingled with the young people in the village, and he didn't forget Fu Hang, and when he turned around, he caught a glimpse of who he was looking at, and when he followed his line of sight, he immediately smiled with a hint of understanding.

He returned to Fu Hang and asked warmly, "What?" Like Director Zhao? I said how did you build a house and build it there, did you think about it for a long time?"

Fu Hang didn't deny it, but he didn't admit it either, he retracted his gaze and looked at the soil under his feet, and said lightly: "It's just that my body is more honest than my heart to find the direction for me." "

Lin Haiyang: "......"

What inexplicable.

Not far away, Chen San'er couldn't stop kicking the dirt, one foot was light and the other was heavy, and a piece of dirt flew out and smashed right on the side of Zhao Yunyun's leg.

Zhao Yunyun was tired like a dog, sitting cross-legged on the ground regardless of her image, and found that Chen San'er was the perpetrator, and she didn't have the strength to deal with him at all, so she only gave him a big white eye of extreme disgust and let him understand it for himself.

She didn't have the heart to think about the wind and snow at all.

To be precise, there was still one on the first day.

But when I got to work, it was gone.

The people who work are really as Zhao Ke said, all of them are grizzled, at most they are good-looking people, and they are good-looking and dusty.

But as long as they are disillusioned, they are all disillusioned. Another piece of dirt flew over to provoke.

Zhao Yunyun was so angry that she grabbed a dirt dog and smashed it at Chen San'er's dusty dog. Zhuang Lan was injured by mistake, and when she was dodging, she accidentally bumped into Zhao Feng, who came back with Zhu Jianyi.

The back is against the arm.

With the hot heat, Zhuang Lan suddenly bulleted away and flashed away.

Zhao Feng looked at her back and smirked.

Zhu Jianyi took the opportunity to hammer him.

The two scuffled again

。

There seemed to be a group of elementary school students around, only Zhao Ke was full of heart

It's all labor, and when they finish drinking mung bean water, they beckon everyone to move.

The "elementary school students" responded: Okay -

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Zhao Ke arranged for several people to participate in the midwife training for a simple assessment, and Yin Zhiqing learned that there were two more registration forms, and also proposed to participate in the assessment.

Are you arranged?

Yin Zhiqing nodded, Xiaowan's father would take care of her when he came back from work, and Teacher Wu promised to help bring her during the day. Principal Gu and Teacher Wu like children very much, and they must bring the well-behaved Tang Xiaowan, which is very much in line with their hearts.

Yin Zhiqing has only read books and learned faster, and the actual study time is not much different from that of other women, and it is not unfair to participate in the assessment. Zhao Ke agreed.

It's still a verbal question, but because there are few people, there is no order.

Yin Zhiqing and the other women sat together, Zhao Ke hugged Tang Xiaowan, Xiaowan, let's be a little judge, okay?

Tang Xiaowan stuffed a piece of rock candy in her mouth, pursed her mouth tightly, and looked very serious. She didn't understand what a "judge" was, so she just nodded heavily, "Yes." ”

Zhao Ke asked, everyone answered at will, and the best answer, she squeezed Tang Xiaowan's hand and drew a stroke under that person's name. After all the questions are asked, the number of orthography under the name is clear at a glance.

The best three people are the educated youth Yin Xiaojuan, Sun Jihong, who failed to sign up for the breeder before, and the fifth aunt Zhao Chunhua. Zhao Ke comforted those who were not selected: "There will be a chance in the future." ”

The other women were more or less lost, and Aunt Jin didn't care at all on her face, and left without choosing. Subsequently, Zhao Ke confirmed to the three people selected: "Have you arranged everything at home?"

The three nodded.

Zhao Chunhua said happily: We all know that we have to go out for training for a long time, and our family has already said it!

She has a cool personality, she is the master of the house, the man listens to her very much, her son and daughter are all older and can take care of herself, and she has her in-laws to take care of her at home.

Yin Xiaojuan's situation, Zhao Ke already knew, so he looked at Sun Jihong, "Sister Sun, how did your family arrange it?"

Her family has a heavy burden, her parents-in-law are not in good health, and she has four children, the eldest is ten years old, and the youngest has just been weaned. Sun Jihong said: "My man goes to work, and the eldest daughter will take care of her grandmother and younger siblings." Her eldest daughter and eldest son are supposed to go to school, but the family is in difficulty and there is no way to get out of the house.

Zhao Ke knew that she was fine, and she had to go to Yin Xiaojuan's house to ask for advice, for a woman who was uneducated and had a heavy family burden, she had to lose most of her work for half a year and participate in the commune's midwife training

The decision, which can almost be said to be all-or-nothing, is very bold.

Tell my family, when you are not at home, if you have any urgent matter, come to me.

Sun Jihong wiped the corners of his eyes, "Thank you, Director Zhao." ”

Zhao Ke encouraged her: "You just have to study hard, I won't let you regret today's decision." Sun Jihong choked up.

The next day, Zhao Ke asked Uncle Ban'er to drive the ox cart, and she got up early to send the three of them to the commune. Zhao Mian also returned to the commune with them early.

Zhao Ke led the three of them to the Women's Federation to sign up, and took them to greet Director Zhang and the officers of the Women's Federation.

The women from other villages who came to train were either unaccompanied or stood by them stiffly, but Zhao Ke and the cadres of the Women's Federation looked familiar, and Yin Zhiqing and the three of them were watched by others, and while their hearts were relaxed, they couldn't help but puff up their chests.

Zhao Ke accompanied them to the place where they lived.

It is the Datong Kang, the environment is very poor, but the commune provides food and shelter, and the conditions are very simple.

Don't care about anything else, just study hard, if there is anything, go to the bearing factory to find my sister, she is already very familiar with the commune and can handle it.

Zhao Chunhua talks to her most casually, don't worry, we know.

"I still have something to do in my village, so I'll leave first."

After Zhao Ke left, the women from the other production brigades came over and asked tentatively: "Sister, who was that just now?" Zhao Chunhua said proudly: "My niece is also the women's director of our village, a high school student, but she has the ability!" Other women also came along.

The women's director of your village is so young!" I saw her talking to the other officials of the Commune!" Yes, yes, I saw it too, and people are polite. That's amazing......

Zhao Chunhua seems to have no intention but is actually showing, "It's nothing, it's just that I know more people." "The three members of the production team of Zhaocun are in the center of the women, and their hearts are extremely steady.

They are different from other women, they have someone behind them~

When Zhao Ke returned to the village, he went to dig ditches non-stop, and found that there were more people at a glance, and there were many of them.

Zhao Yunyun took the opportunity to be lazy, came to her side and said, "When you leave in the morning, Lao Meng will come to help, and he will come again after work." Lao Meng is Sun Jihong's man, and when he saw Zhao Ke, he just smiled crampedly, so he buried his head in hard work.

"What about those two male intellectuals?" Zhao Ke looked at the educated youths Liu Xingxue and Deng Haixin.

Zhao Yunyun pursed her lips and said, "Them."

The four educated youths came together, I didn't ask, I don't know. In reality, Zhao Yunyun still doesn't like female intellectuals.

But it's because of the male protagonist Fu Hang, and in reality it's because of Zhao Ke.

Of course, Zhao Yunyun, as Zhao Ke's best friend, is too lazy to worry about the second.

Zhao Ke looked at Niu Xiaoqiang and a group of children again, "What's the matter with them?"

"Oh, they, a bunch of little gluttons!" Zhao Yunyun spread her hands, "As soon as you come, ask me if I have sweet water, I will ask Niu Xiaoqiang to take them to work first, and then I will talk about it when you come back."

Zhao Ke: ......

Her sister Zhao Mian was wrong, the charm of mung bean water is greater than her personality charm.

However, the progress is faster when there are more people, no matter how small the soldiers are, Zhao Ke does not dislike them, but he will drive them back when they are almost there. Niu Xiaoqiang stared at her with blank eyes: "Is there any sugar water?"

Zhao Yunyun said speechlessly next to her: Is your family lacking a mouthful of sugar water? Niu Xiaoqiang tilted his chin and said, "I have to work for the benefit of my little brothers!" This posture is really a bit like Zhao Ke when he was a child. Zhao Ke laughed and waved his hand, "Take the roots to my house to find Comrade Yu Xiulan." ”

"Okay~" A group of children cheered and ran away.

At home, Yu Xiulan ushered in such a large group of debt collectors that it was almost difficult to breathe. While making sugar water, she kept scolding Zhao Ke in her heart: This loser!

The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and there is not even a silk wind, and the people in the village are laughing at Zhao Ke for their wasted efforts.

The day of Dong Nier and Wang Laosi's wedding has arrived.

Zhao Ke and the others suspended their ditch digging work in the morning and went to help the two families with the wedding.

Although the relationship between the educated youths and the young people in the village has been good recently, they have no friendship with Wang Laosi and the Sun family, and they don't need to go to the wedding to help, so they all appear at the ditch digging point.

Fu Hang and Lin Haiyang stood together, Liu Xingxue and Deng Haixin stood together, Zhuang Lan and Su Limei stood between them, looking nervously left and right.

Usually there are a lot of people, and they can't get together, but now there are only educated youth, which is embarrassing.

In the end, Fu Hang glanced at Liu Xingxue and Deng Haixin, and said lightly: Dig it. Then he turned around and walked to the end of the ditch.

They haven't talked for a long time since the conflict.

After Liu Xingxue and Deng Haixin looked at each other, they silently followed.

Zhuang Lan and Su Limei were behind them, smiling.

r /> everyone works together for the same goal, this is the life of educated youth they imagined before they went to the countryside. On the other end, Zhao Ke and Zhao Yunyun sat in almost the same position, being picked by the elders in the village and ignored by their words.

Zhao Yunyun's skin was not thick enough, and she was restless, "For the first time, I felt that it was better to go to work, if my eyes could be cut with a thousand cuts, we would have become a piece now."

Zhao Ke asked her calmly: "Didn't you bring melon seeds?"

"What do you want?" Zhao Yunyun glanced at her, "It's already very good for Kaien to let me go home to live, and there are no melon seeds at all." ”

Zhao Ke touched her head sympathetically, "It's okay, neither do I, Comrade Yu Xiulan of our family holds the power of the family economy, and I am now the number one loser in her eyes, and my status is about to be on par with Zhao Feng."

Zhao Yunyun looked back at her more sympathetically, "That's still worse for you." ”

A couple of newcomers are childhood sweethearts, neighbors marry neighbors, and they deliberately go around the village before returning to Lao Wang's house. After the firecrackers, everyone sat down, and Zhao Ke sat at the main table as a matter of course.

Fourth Uncle Zhao Xinwei's father, Fourth Master Zhao reprimanded Zhao Ke with an old face: "Zhao Ke, how long are you going to mess around?"

Zhao Cheng of their family also followed Zhao Ke to dig a ditch on the first day, but he didn't resist Zhao Siye's cold face and didn't participate after that. And Zhao Siye spoke, and the spearheads of the other elders also pointed at Zhao Ke-

"Look at the miasma of smoke in the village right now."

The boys of all the families are disobedient to their elders, is that how you deserve to be the director of women? If you don't reflect on it, we will never tolerate you continuing to be a women's director.

Deputy Captain Xu also said to Zhao Ke in a matter-of-fact manner: "Look at the weather, how can it rain, you just admit your mistakes to the big guy, don't make a fuss and finally be removed by the brigade as your female director, it's not good-looking."

Zhao Xinshan never spoke, but he didn't stop it, he just acquiesced to everyone's pressure on Zhao Ke.

Everyone around them looked at their table.

Yu Xiulan was about to stand up to defend her daughter, but Zhao Jianguo held her down and shook his head at her.

She is now at that table, not their daughter, but the women's director of the Zhaocun Production Brigade, and the enterprising young generation.

Zhao Ke didn't need others to maintain it, and said with a smile: "On the day of other people's big days, there is no need for the elders to spoil other people's happiness because of my unpleasant trouble, right?"

A group of people looked at the old Wang family, Wang Changhe and Lu Dongmei, and the old Sun family.

All four of them looked a little different

Naturally, but they didn't dare to disturb the respected elders in the village when they spoke.

Zhao Ke picked up her bowl, stood up, and turned to congratulate Wang Lao Siwang Xiangping and Dong Nier: "I use water instead of wine, and I wish the fourth brother and Sister Dong Nier to work together with one heart and one mind, and form a white head."

A few tables in the distance sat the young boys of the village, jokingly: Director Zhao is still educated! Look at this crepe! Then someone coaxed and echoed Zhao Ke, shouting to Wang Laosi and Dong Nier, "One heart and one mind, the alliance is white". A group of young people all shouted, and they also pulled Wang Laosi to replace wine with water, and the atmosphere was warm for a while.

As soon as Zhao Ke said a word, the impact of the small contradiction that happened at the main table just now was completely eliminated.

And Zhao Ke re-faced the elders at this table, and smiled heartily: "I don't want to be this women's director, this ditch, I can definitely dig it if I want to."

It has nothing to do with whether the rainstorm will happen in the end, she thinks it is worth trying, so she is not afraid of failure, so she dares to do it.

The elders at the table all had ugly faces, and their eyes looked at Zhao Ke like a thorn in the face of disobedience.

After Zhao Ke sat down, everyone should eat and drink like no one.

Yu Xiulan's smile rose again.

The wedding ended successfully, and Zhao Ke took away her "soldiers" in front of the whole village and went to continue digging ditches outside the village.

No matter what the people in the village thought, they couldn't control them, so they could only disperse slowly.

Wang Laosan stayed at home today to help clean up.

When only her own family was left, Aunt Dong counted him: "Why do you say you are so disobedient, don't you see that the elders in the village are dissatisfied with Zhao Keduo today?" Don't dig any ditches in the future, won't you think about your parents?

It has been explained many times that the ditch was dug for the village, but they didn't listen, and Wang Laosan began to turn a deaf ear.

Aunt Dong turned to Pan Cuilian again: "Why are you a daughter-in-law, don't you know that you feel sorry for your own father?" Don't you know how to persuade him? Isn't it good to have that kung fu to lie down at home and rest for a while?

Pan Cuilian was silent.

Aunt Dong'er counted endlessly. The two of them are always the same wood, and neither of them responds.

Aunt Dong was angry.

In the evening, Wang Laosi and Dong Nier completed the cave room in their small room.

The next day, Dong Nier dragged her uncomfortable body to get up early to cook for the whole family, put the food in the pot and heat up, and began to clean up the kitchen again, busy with the work that she didn't finish yesterday because she got married.

After a while,

Aunt Dong got up and lectured dissatisfiedly: "Early in the morning, what are you doing with such a big movement?" That's how you work at home?

Tonier said apologetically, "Mom, I'm sorry, I'll be careful in the future." ”

Aunt Dong glanced at her, turned her head to lift the pot, "Why is your porridge so thin, the whole family has to go to work, can you work by drinking water?"

But she didn't keep any food at all, and this was still the food that Toniel took out of her house.... Aunt Dong was provocative, but Dong Nier didn't dare to contradict her mother-in-law, so she could only suffer silently.

At this time, Wang Laosan wore his work clothes and came out of his house happily.

As soon as Aunt Dong saw him dressed like this, her attention immediately took her away from Dong Ni'er and scolded him loudly: "Why don't I say that you won't listen, you will dig that ditch, right?" Are you sick? Do you have to do a day job?

Wang Laosan turned a deaf ear, "I have everything to do with myself, Mom, don't worry about it." ”

Aunt Dong couldn't do anything about him, so she began to point fingers at Sang and scolded: "Slacker! The sun burns my ass, and I can't afford it!"

Wang Laosan walked to the door and came back to defend his daughter-in-law: "My daughter-in-law may be pregnant, don't be too loud to frighten my unborn girl son."

Aunt Dong'er's scolding suddenly pinched her throat, and she asked, "Are you really pregnant?"

"Possibly. Wang Laosan said triumphantly, "The menstrual affair has been late for several days, and she will go to find the third uncle when it is later." In the house, Pan Cuilian blushed and scolded him in a low voice: "Shameless, why don't you say anything." ”

Outside, Aunt Dong slapped her face violently, "My son is really capable, how long has he been married and he has been pregnant." Wang Laosan was full of spirit.

Toniel looked at them enviously and subconsciously touched her belly.

Aunt Dong no longer had the heart to pay attention to what Wang Laosan was doing, and she no longer found fault with Dong Nier, so she turned around and went into the house to prepare things for pregnant women. Leave Toniel alone in the kitchen.

Pan Cuilian walked in and whispered to her: "You don't have to listen to your mother for everything, you just let the fourth child come out, and your mother can't do anything about her son." Dong Nier shook her head, "The fourth brother works so hard every day, I can't bear to bother him, it's okay." Pan Cuilian scratched her head, "You also go to work, right?" It's not like he's working hard alone?"

"I don't get a lot of work. Tonier worked hard and looked at her belly enviously, when I have children in the future, life will be better.

Pan Cuilian: ...

Although her mother told her the same thing before she got married, she was doing well in Lao Wang's house, as if she didn't

It's because of the child....Dong Nier was kind and persuaded her: "Third sister-in-law, you go back and lie down, I don't need your help." ”

Pan Cuilian turned back step by step, but she was still not happy, so she went to pat the door of Wang Laosi's house and called him to help Dong Nier. Wang Laosi honestly walked out of the house and into the kitchen.

Dong Nier didn't need him, "Fourth brother, don't listen to the third sister-in-law, this is originally a woman's work, I can do it myself." ”

Wang Laosi was also very obedient, so he really didn't stretch out his hand and comforted her: "What did my mother say, you bear with it first, she is just a little angry, and it will be fine in the future."

Dong Nier nodded, "I know, fourth brother, you should get out quickly." ”

Wang Laosi left.

Dong Nier was busy early in the morning, and when the whole family had finished eating, she washed the dishes and chopsticks again before helping her sore waist back to the house.

Lao Wang's family has been separated, each house sweeps the snow in front of the door, and everyone should take turns to do the land that was originally owned by the public, but since Dong Nier married in, she has diligently taken over most of the work.

The eldest daughter-in-law, Zhao Huahua, was embarrassed to let her do it all, and would reach out to help, while the second daughter-in-law Zhou Xiuli was happy to be lazy because someone was working.

Pan Cuilian was diagnosed with pregnancy, and when it was time for them to work in the room, Wang Laosan contracted all of them and did not let Pan Cuilian touch his hands at all, but he neither took advantage of the four rooms, nor did he do any superfluous work.

In order to integrate into her in-laws' family as soon as possible, Dong Nier even took the initiative to help her two sisters-in-law take care of their children.

But even so, Aunt Dong'er's attitude towards her is not as good as Pan Cuilian, who made the old Wang family make jokes.

Dong Nier didn't understand, and in the end it came down to Pan Cuilian's pregnancy, she hadn't yet, so she hoped more and more that her child would come soon, preferably a son....

And the affairs of Lao Wang's family are only a corner of the village.

Except for Dong Nier's parents, Aunt Sun, and Uncle Sun, no one else in the village paid attention to it, and they paid more attention to Zhao Ke's digging of the ditch.

Zhao Ke was just like what she said, she didn't care what others said, she pulled her hands and really dug out the drainage canal little by little.

Many people in the village also went to see it, but they were still critical, thinking that they had made these ravines and ravines useless, and it also affected walking.

But in fact, they don't usually walk around the wasteland at all. They are criticizing young people's every move as a way to demonstrate their authority, and the more young people don't listen, the more critical they become.

When Zhao Ke and the others finished digging outside the village and planned to dig in the village, the members came to obstruct it.

It's okay for you to toss outside, and you're not allowed to dig up the mess in the village!"

; "Don't try to use picks and shovels in the village!"

With such a big pit, who doesn't pay attention to the aisle and falls? Which of you can afford to pay? No way! Can't dig!

Their obstruction attitude was too tough, and Zhao Ke really had no choice but to give up and break ground in the village.

But they can't dig anywhere else, and they can't take care of her grandmother and uncle's yard.

So Zhao Ke took people to dig a ditch in her grandmother's empty yard, dug it all the way out of the yard, and then dug up along the yard to the edge of her uncle's yard, and stopped.

Zhao Rui sighed: It's useless, right?

This is how it used to be dug here, but it rained a lot and overflowed, and it was useless. Zhao Ke said: "Dig here first, let's finish digging the rest of the village." "You can't spend it in the village.

The last section of the canal designed by Fu Hang is the long ditch north of the old locust tree, if it can be dug with the village and the river, this ditch is higher than the river, just enough to drain the water in the village.

It was very hot and humid, and the villagers often sat under the old locust tree and criticized them for their stupid labor of "not being afraid of heat stroke".

In the last two days, it has been excessively hot.

There are no more people under the old locust tree.

Zhao Ke and the others worked, and they began to sweat as soon as they moved, and they were even a little out of breath.

Zhao Rui was so hot that he fainted, "Zhao Ke, it's too hot to do it." ”

Zhao Ke was also uncomfortable, looking at the hot and red faces of others, he still decided to give up in the end, "Forget it, don't dig it yet, go back slowly."

And they gathered up their tools and went back.

But before they reached the entrance of the village, a demonic wind blew the branches of the trees, and their hair was messy and dusty. Zhuang Lan was thin and small, and was swept into the ditch by the wind.

Zhao Feng quickly grabbed her and grabbed her wrist.

Fu Hang also subconsciously looked at Zhao Ke worriedly, but she stood in the middle of the strong men, and the thief was steady. "Is it going to rain?"

I don't know whose voice fell, and as soon as the voice fell, a crackling sound sounded. At first, the voice was small, but soon it became louder, and the person who hit it was in pain.

"It's snowing!"

A group of people protected their heads and hurried home.
