At the end of the general meeting, everyone hurried home to cook, or there were children aged eight or nine at home, who had already cooked and waited for their parents and grandparents to come back to eat.

On the way back to the village from Daku, the most beautiful thing is the old Wang family. Several women grabbed Aunt Dong and said:

"The third child of your family is really good now, and he has become the leader of the group." "Your third daughter-in-law is also capable, look, now she is the cashier of the brigade." "You will be blessed in the future~"

Aunt Dong looked proud, "The third child of my family has been clever since he was a child, his daughter-in-law loves to learn in her mother's house, and she will pull the abacus. "

"Really studying at home?"

Aunt Dong was confident, "Then is there a fake?" Otherwise, the brigade Gaha doesn't use the people of the old Zhao family, but the third child of my family and Cuilian?"

"That's right, if you want to talk about literacy, several sons of the Lao Yu family have also studied for a few years."

Wang Laosan and his wife have the ability to get a job, but they can get a job compared to getting close to Zhao Ke, and they have a long face.

Aunt Dong said: "Let's not talk about anything else, just Zhao Ke's virtue of turning his face and not recognizing people, if she didn't really have two brushes, she wouldn't be used to anyone."

It's hard to hear that it's a turn of face and doesn't recognize people, but if you think about it, it's selflessness.

But what she said was not very nice after all.

Not far away, Wang Laosan was the first to refute her when he heard it: "Mom, you have more respect for Director Zhao."

There were other people nearby, and they chimed in:

"Yes, I'm young, and that's also a cadre of our brigade." "Do practical things for our village." "You have to be careful when you speak, and you can't treat it like an ordinary little girl."

suddenly became the opposite of everyone, and Aunt Dong was speechless: "Okay, okay, I won't say it."

said yes or not, she immediately added: "Zhao Ke is not the kind of person who is cautious, he is afraid of something."

This is said by all the big guys, no matter who has had a conflict with Zhao Ke, the matter will be over, and she will be treated the same at work in the future, and never wear small shoes to a single family.

At this point, there are several families in the village who have the deepest experience - Liu Guangzhi's family, Zhao's second grandmother's family, Tian Guizhi's family, and Lao Qian's family...

Liu Guangzhi's family——

Liu Xiaobao was playing alone in the courtyard, and Zheng Guangmei chattered to Liu Guangzhi while heating a meal:

"Build schools

, Xiaobao will not be able to freeze when he goes to school in the future. "That messy supervision team, I think it's nonsense!" If I don't have the money, where is my money? Those people in the brigade made that Zhao Ke fool stupid!"

Liu Guangzhi sat at the door and listened silently. Zheng Guangmei said angrily, walked over and pushed him, "Talking to you, you didn't hear it!"

Liu Guangzhi tilted his head, "What should I do?" This thing is not mandatory, and it can't be lost, if you don't want to lend it to the brigade, go tell the brigade tomorrow?"

Zheng Guangmei was furious, "Why don't you say it! You big old man don't come out!" Liu Guangzhi was silent, "If you don't want to, I'll say it."

Zheng Guangmei was unhappy again, "The whole village borrows, but our family doesn't borrow it, how can people look at us!" She pointed at Liu Xiaobao, "Xiaobao will go to school in the future, how can I see Xiaobao!"

"And what do you want?"

"I'm just not going to get lucky." Zheng Guangmei took off her apron and threw it on him, "You can cook!" Liu Guangzhi took the apron, endured it, surrounded himself, and went to have a hot meal.

Zhao's second grandmother's house——

Hu Hezhi said a lot to Zhao Fangfang on the way back, and when he got home, Zhao Fangfang said to Zhao Erma: "Milk, if the school increases teachers, Hezhi should have a chance, right?"

Second Lady Zhao glanced at the door of the hut that they had closed, and said angrily: "Is there a chance that you can't see his own ability? Back to me, I'm an old woman, that's my ability, is it his?"

People are old and fine, she lives so old, only she takes advantage of others, and no one else takes advantage of her. Why did you lose two dollars in dividends? It's not for Hu Hezhi yet.

is also a scholar who can't carry his hands and can't pick his hands, Zhao Ke can put the whole Zhao Village together, other educated youths can contribute to the team, and Hu Hezhi can't even support his family!

Zhao Ermi's voice was mean: "It's not confinement, it's huddled in the house all day long." "Milk~" Zhao Fangfang didn't want her to say that about her husband.

Zhao Erma poked her forehead, hating that iron is not steel, "You are just lard and blinded by your heart, which young man in the village is not better than him, why haven't you read a book?" It's a good hand at work, and he can support his family! Wang Laosan is about the same age as you, if our family was looking for him to be a son-in-law, now I don't follow the scenery?"

Zhao Fangfang leaned back to avoid her hand and muttered: "Didn't you think the old Wang family was poor before?"

also said that the two sons of the old Wang family were unjust

, who married in the past had to help the eldest and second raise a baby, and said that Aunt Dong'er and his wife were not good in-laws...... Not a good word anyway.

"How do I know that Wang Laosan has such an idea?" Second Mother Zhao was angry when she thought about it, "I'm also blind! Our grandparents are blind! Men don't have the ability, and they don't have the use of fart!"

Zhao Fangfang bit her lip, "Then ...... Zhidang teacher"

Zhao Er's milk whitened her, "I don't know what the constitution of the brigade is, and besides, the school hasn't been built yet, what's the hurry?" Zhao Fangfang was coquettish, "I knew you wouldn't leave me alone~"

"It's the mother of two children, and it's all over here." Zhao Erma pushed her, but she didn't push it, so she let it go, and said, "Let me tell you, when the nursery school in the brigade is set up, you will send our two grandchildren over, and we will both be brisk."

Zhao Fangfang hesitated, "You don't need it, right? Su Su will be able to see his brother then......"

"Look, Su Su will only be five years old next year." Second Grandmother Zhao glared at her, "When did our family treat you badly because you are a girl?" You don't learn those stinky problems from the surnamed Hu, you have to be like that Tian Guizhi's family, you see if Zhao Ke's dead girl knocks you or not!"

Zhao Fangfang was a little difficult when she gave birth, but fortunately, she went to the commune, nothing happened, and then she went home to do a good job of confinement, and now she is chubby and looks good.

But these have nothing to do with Hu Hezhi's half a dime!

"What's the matter, Zhao Ke is not stronger than Hu Hezhi? Zhao Ke is not more reliable than Hu Hezhi when he speaks and does things? If you really want to have something, you have to rely on the old Zhao family to get ahead!"

Zhao Er's grandmother was arrogant, "In this family, he Hu Hezhi can't come out, so he is not qualified to speak! You too, listen to me!" Zhao Fangfang had nothing to say.

In the hut, Hu Hezhi heard the old lady's undisguised loud voice, and he was full of disgust. If it weren't for the sake of having an easier life, how could he marry Zhao Fangfang, how could he put up with such a vulgar family....

After a while, Zhao Fangfang returned to the house, her eyes full of guilt, "Hezhi, don't take it to heart if you are milk, she has a knife mouth and a tofu heart, and she will not care about it when she recruits a teacher next year."

Hu Hezhi gently comforted him: "I know, grandma has some truth in what she said, I have to have my own ability, don't worry, I will work hard to prepare."

Zhao Fangfang glanced at the book on the table and looked at him adoringly, "I know, you are very literate, but everyone hasn't seen it yet......" "Thank you for always encouraging me." Hu Hezhi hugged her, and Zhao Fangfang couldn't see his face

For a moment, his expression cooled down......

Tian Guizhi's family——

Tian Guizhi was eating the food cooked by her daughter, and the dishes and chopsticks kept making noises. The brothers Bao Qizhi and Bao Qixing are not afraid, they grab food and drink, and their hearts are very big.

Only Bao Xiaoyu had to shake at the slightest movement, and his head was buried lower and lower, almost buried in the bowl. Finally, Tian Guizhi's man Bao Dawei was dissatisfied, "What about food? What are you doing all this and that while eating?" Tian Guizhi was weird, "I haven't even studied, but she's a good girl, and she can go to school." Bao Xiaoyu froze, raised her head stupidly and looked at her mother, what did her mother say just now? Study? She—Did she hear her right?

Tian Guizhi glared at her with disgust.

Bao Xiaoyu was startled and quickly lowered her head.

Bao Dawei said: "The brigade has regulations, what else can we say, unless you don't want the benefits of the brigade in the future."

Probably not.

Now no one in the village knows that their brigade will get better and better in the future.

Tian Guizhi felt uncomfortable, and put the dishes and chopsticks down, "I have no appetite, I don't eat it!" Bao Dawei pulled his face, "If you like to eat or not, you are used to it!" Tian Guizhi couldn't get off the stage, so he turned around and lay down on the kang, with his back to them.

Bao Xiaoyu looked at his father cautiously, his eyes were full of expectation, and asked in a low voice: "Dad, I, can I go to school?" Well. Bao Dawei added, "Read well, don't waste your family's money, you have to know how to be grateful, and you have to return to your family in the future." Bao Xiaoyu quickly agreed.

Bao Dawei glanced at her, "Don't leave the work at home behind." He took it for granted, but he never asked of his two sons like that.

And Bao Xiaoyu did not have any dissatisfaction. She is like a little mouse who has stolen a little leftovers, a little happiness is enough for her to be happy, and holding on tightly is the only thing she can do.

The Qian family——

As soon as the old man Qian had the spirit, he lay on the kang and scolded constantly, even the nearby neighbors could hear it.

Mrs. Qian, Qian Jun, and Li Mei went home and heard it, and Li Mei complained, "Why are you scolding again, it's annoying." Qian Jun looked at Mrs. Qian, and wondered: "Mom, can you go and persuade Dad?"

Mrs. Qian looked at her son and daughter-in-law blankly.

Qian Jun was slightly uncomfortable and looked away.

r />

Li Mei is proud, and she is easy to handle for the old lady.

In the house, when the old man Qian saw Mrs. Qian, he scolded even more fiercely: "Where have you been?***, I***you!"

There was no way he could get up and hit her.

Mrs. Qian sat on the other side of the kang, away from him, staring blankly at the ground, not knowing what she was thinking. Old man Qian was so angry that he beat the kang: "You dead old woman, are you dumb!" Mrs. Qian's eyelids moved, ignoring the bad old man who couldn't move, and continued to be distracted.

She used to scold and didn't talk back, and she still is.

Next.

Zhao Xinshan and Zhao Ke sat in the office of the brigade to sign IOUs with the members, and Zhao Yunyun worked beside them. Accountant Niu and Deputy Captain Xu distributed food to everyone in the courtyard warehouse. The members of the club went out from the brigade office, went to the treasury to receive their own food, and then went home directly.

In previous years, the brigade would not say much when distributing grain, but today, Deputy Captain Xu will give one more instruction: "If someone comes to borrow grain, don't be too embarrassed, take care of your own family more."

The members agreed.

After the last grain was distributed, Vice Captain Xu wiped the sweat from his forehead, "I don't know if it's useful." Accountant Niu shook his head, "I'm more worried about someone being greedy...... "Vice Captain Xu wiped his sweaty hands, "Isn't it?"

Now in the entire Shuangshan Commune, there is a lot of grain in Zhao Village's brigade, and relatives and friends must be indispensable to borrow grain, in case someone is greedy for high food prices and secretly goes out to sell it......

The two of them looked at each other, but they couldn't say for sure, and when they returned to the office, they mentioned to Zhao Xinshan, "Do you need to remind me again?"

"This matter, why don't you talk about it on the bright side."

Zhao Xinshan wanted to smoke a cigarette as soon as he had something, and in front of Zhao Ke and Zhao Yunyun, he could only roll it up and put it under his nose and sniff it, and then clamped it on his ear.

Accountant Niu turned to Zhao Ke, "Zhao Ke, what do you think?"

Vice Captain Xu frowned, "Yesterday, I should have deducted some food together, so I don't have to worry about this." Zhao Ke shook his head, "I haven't gotten the money for dividends, if the food is not all in my hands, the members will have to lose their temper." Deputy Captain Xu couldn't rest assured, and said, "You can't put it on the bright side, I'll tell you from house to house." The other people looked at each other, and Zhao Xinshan said, "I'll go too." Accountant Niu said, "Then I'll go too."

Zhao Xinshan said to Zhao Ke and Zhao Yunyun: "Don't go, you two days, rest and rest." The holiday is not active, and there is a problem with the mind. The two of them agreed one by one

Gotta have a good time.

However, Zhao Yunyun was lazy at home, Zhao Ke was not completely idle, she was idle in the afternoon, and went to the big library outside the village to stroll, and found that there was one more person in the literacy class - Fang Jing, a young scholar.

Today's lecture is Zhuang Lan, Fang Jing stood next to the small blackboard, helping Zhuang Lan to hand things from time to time, or taking the initiative to write a board book, crowded

Su Limei could only stand dryly.

Zhao Ke raised his eyebrows slightly.

Su Limei held her breath in her heart, didn't pay attention, saw Zhao Ke first, and walked towards her. Fang Jing noticed her movements, raised her eyes, and then smiled shyly. Zhao Ke nodded to her, and his expression was not unusual.

Su Limei walked up to Zhao Ke and reported in a low voice: This morning, Fang Jing suddenly told us that she wanted to participate in the literacy work of the brigade.

She showed a little dissatisfaction on her face, "I do a good job of teaching with Zhuang Lan, usually Zhuang Lan is my teaching assistant in class, and I am Zhuang Lan's teaching assistant in class, Fang Jing suddenly stepped in now, and said that she wanted to help, obviously picking up ready-made, why?"

Zhao Ke looked inside like a class teacher like a class teacher, leaned on the door frame and looked inside, and said calmly: "As a cadre of the brigade, I definitely have no objection to the educated youth actively participating in the cause of eradicating illiteracy for the peasants.

Su Limei was aggrieved, "Then let's just let her take advantage of her? Who doesn't know her mind must be thinking about the teachers who will be added next year and want to perform.

"You have to be able to deal with the problems between you." Zhao Ke Yuguang noticed the person coming in behind him, stood up straight, and patted her shoulder, This is just a small test, I hope it will not affect the learning of the members.

Su Limei bit her lip, "Okay."

Fang Jing was attentive on the surface, but actually kept an eye on them, guessing what the two were talking about. After Zhao Ke went out, Su Limei turned around, met her gaze, and glared at her. Fang Jing looked extremely tolerant and lowered her head a little sadly. Su Limei was so angry that she was short of breath.

On the other end, Fu Hang entered the warehouse, took off his hat and scarf, and told Zhao Ke about the progress of burning bricks: "The first kiln bricks fired in the big kiln are still drying, at present, there is a half kiln of qualified finished products, and it will be adjusted later, it will increase, do you want to take a look?"

Zhao Ke shook his head, Captain, they can't stay idle, they will definitely go and see. Fu Hang said truthfully: "In the past few days, they have been there more than once." Zhao Ke sat on the carpenter's workbench that Uncle Yu had moved over, chuckling.

br />

Fu Hang's eyes lit up, then let's make cookies together? You promised it before. Zhao Ke agreed, and responded happily: "Okay." ”

The corners of Fu Hang's mouth rose, "Then I'll let Liu Zhiqing stare at it tomorrow, it's no problem for him to watch the kiln alone, and now he is there to watch."

Liu Xingxue is quite passionate, and he wishes that Fu Hang would not steal his opportunity to be in the limelight.

"Then I'll call the kids over tomorrow to do it together." Zhao Ke was also quite interested, smiling and bending his eyes, "I thank Fu Zhiqing for them." Fu Hang looked down at her and said softly, "No thanks."

Zhao Ke returned to the village, passed by Niu's accountant's house, and said to Niu Xiaoqiang, asking her to inform the children tomorrow.

Niu Xiaoqiang couldn't wait for tomorrow at all, so he went from east to west on the same day, and was notified one by one. His mother came back from a literacy class, couldn't find him, and didn't take it seriously. Which kid in the village doesn't spend all day outside in the wilderness, and he just knows how to go home and eat.

And this night, the children of the whole village did not sleep well, all of them were worried about "making biscuits", and the next day they opened their eyes and were about to run out, some were grabbed by their parents and pressed to eat breakfast at home, and some successfully ran out, but when they went to the courtyard of Fu Hang's house, they found that their chimney was not yet smoking, and they could only regret going back.

It was hard to get past eight o'clock, and a group of children flocked in one direction. The village adults asked, and when they learned where they were going, they didn't say anything.

When Fu Hang saw so many children, he was stunned for a moment, and then asked them to enter the hospital, and whispered: The voice is quieter, Director Zhao hasn't gotten up yet. The children looked at Zhao Ke's room, covered their mouths and nodded.

Fu Hang approached, touched Niu Xiaoqiang's head, and beckoned them: Go into the house, warm and warm.

A group of children crowded into the house, Fu Hang's room was so crowded that there was no place to put their feet at all, and several children could only stand in the kitchen. Chen San'er squatted in front of the stove pit to light the fire, was hit by a child, and looked up.

Most of the children had heard from their parents how "bad" Chen San'er was, and the child who bumped into him was so frightened that he didn't dare to move, and looked at him in fear, "Yes, I'm sorry."

Chen San'er: ......

The child was about to cry.

The muscles of Chen San'er's cheeks twitched twice, and he didn't make any kind expressions, silently turned his head, as if nothing had happened, and continued to burn the fire.

The child stood stupidly for a moment, then slowly moved his feet and squeezed into the middle of the other children, finding a sense of security.

Niu Xiaoqiang waited anxiously, "Fu Zhiqing, when will Director Zhao get up?" Shall we make cookies first?"

/> Of course not. Fu Hang said: "You go to the kang, let the others in, I will tell you stories, be patient and wait."

Then I'll call Director Zhao......

"Nope." Fu Hang refused, she was tired, sleep a little longer, don't disturb her. Even if the children are in a hurry, they have no choice but to obey.

Fortunately, Fu Hang's story was very interesting, and gradually, the children were immersed in it and listened attentively. Halfway through, Fu Hang went to the kitchen for breakfast, but Zhao Ke still didn't show up. At about ten o'clock, Fu Hang finished telling them the story of two scientific explorations, and Zhao Kecai walked in with a tight package.

Niu Xiaoqiang complained slightly: Director Zhao, why did you come?

Isn't there no appointment? What's the hurry?

There were a lot of people in Fu Hang's house, and it was still a little hot, Zhao Ke took off his scarf and asked, "Are you starting?" The children on the kang hurried down to the ground, and the children on the ground pushed out. There are too many babies.

Fu Hang brought out the white flour and sugar.

Zhao Keguang didn't move his mouth, and instructed them: Wash your hands, wash them and meet again. The children were self-reliant, washing their hands one by one.

Fu Hang left a scoop of noodles for him and Zhao Ke, and let the children share the rest.

There were not enough panels and basins, and immediately there were children who were close to their homes and ran out, and then ran back with things. Fu Hang explained to all the children the steps of making biscuits. The children started to move, much more skilled than he was the first time.

Fu Hang was a little glad that he had practiced before, otherwise he would have lost face in front of Zhao Ke.

"Don't touch your hands, I'll come." Fu Hang asked Zhao Ke to sit and work alone.

But even if he practiced, his movements were still clumsy and conspicuous.

"I'll do it anyway."

Zhao Ke couldn't see it, dragged the basin, pinched the dough and rubbed it vigorously. She can do it, but she has always had a sister and a mother, and she doesn't need her to reach out.

Zhao Ke's fingers were slender, Fu Hang stared at it a few times, and unnaturally set it aside, "I'll go and palm the mold."

And the mold?

It's pretty decent.

Zhao Ke looked sideways while kneading his dough.

After a while, Fu Hang came back after washing the mold, leaving one and distributing the rest to the children. He casually put down the mold and flicked his fingers to the corners of the panel. It was a wooden heart-shaped mold.

Zhao Ke: ......

br />

Fu Hang glanced at her a few times, and saw that she didn't notice his careful thoughts at all, and while his heart was relaxed, he couldn't help but sigh. If you care, you will notice a little unusual and put it in your heart....

Zhao Ke doesn't have so many children, just like the children, he is focused on making cookies. Everyone did it together, waiting for Fu Hang to order the small secrets outside, and send them out to roast in batches.

This time, Fu Hang controlled the temperature well, did not bake the paste, and as batches of biscuits came out, he controlled the heat better and better. The children cherished the hand-made biscuits, so they only broke a small piece, stuffed it into their mouths, and tasted it carefully.

Fu Hang asked Zhao Ke: "How does it taste?"

Hard. It's not crispy either. But...... Zhao Ke smiled: "It's sweet."

Most of the children have never eaten this kind of biscuit, and they all think that it may be such a taste, sweet and delicious. There were still many older or younger children who did not come, and Fu Hang asked them to take them back and share a point. The children thanked each other.

Niu Xiaoqiang had eaten Jiang rice noodles and was not very interested in this biscuit, so he just wanted to take one back to the roots of the tree to eat. He was more curious: "Fu Zhiqing, can that kiln bake something else?"

What do you want to bake? It should be ok.

Niu Xiaoqiang ran over and whispered to a few children, and not long after, he ran back again, Fu Zhiqing, you invite us to eat biscuits, we also invite you to eat delicious food, you wait for us to come back!

After he finished speaking, he ran away with a group of children.

Fu Hang's courtyard was empty in an instant, leaving only Zhao Ke and Fu Hang.

You......

Fu Hang wanted to invite Zhao Ke into the house, but when he thought of the two of them alone in the house, he couldn't open his mouth. Zhao Ke said crisply: "I'll go home first, and I'll call me later."

Good.

Fu Hang's voice was very soft, and his eyes followed her until she closed the door. Liu Zhiqing said that making cookies together to increase the time spent together seems to be useless... An hour and a half later, Niu Xiaoqiang and a few children mysteriously returned and called Fu Hang to come out and light the fire.

Fu Hang asked what it was.

Niu Xiaoqiang clutched the bowl, Fu Zhiqing, don't look at it yet, you must not have eaten it, it is very fragrant and crispy.

Fu Hang was not very curious, and seeing that they didn't want to say, he didn't ask anymore, but only shouted at Zhao Ke's courtyard and asked Zhao Ke to come over. Zhao Ke came out wrapped tightly, just in time to see Niu Xiaoqiang with his back to Fu Hang, pouring something into the kiln.

Niu Xiaoqiang, what are you doing?

Niu Xiaoqiang quickly closed the door of the kiln and shook his head at her, Director Zhao, you will know later.

Abnormal.

Zhao Ke stared at Niu Xiaoqiang's expression, then looked at the empty bowl in his hand, and had a little guess. Niu Xiaoqiang hurriedly put the bowl on his stomach, Director Zhao, don't say it if you guess! Fu Hang finally became a little strange, what is it, so mysterious?

Zhao Ke looked at his ignorant eyes, slightly hooked the corners of his mouth, and decided to hide it for Niu Xiaoqiang, You will know in a while, it is indeed a good thing.

Fu Hang was puzzled and lit the fire.

Niu Xiaoqiang kept talking beside him: "Fu Zhiqing, a little fire, don't burn out."

Slowly, there was a faint smell of burnt smell from the kiln, and the children began to swallow their saliva.

Almost, right?

It's easy to cook.

"I remember it too......"

When Fu Hang heard this, he put away the fire and opened the door.

A larger scent overflows.

Fu Hang wore cotton gloves, pulled out the stone slab, and froze when he saw the things on it clearly.

It was a milky white worm that was no longer than a knuckle, roasted and browned, smelling fragrant, and looking ...... Indescribable. But even with a shocked expression on his face, he didn't throw it out.

Zhao Ke was funny.

Niu Xiaoqiang was overflowing with their saliva, and kept recommending: "Fu Zhiqing, you taste it, it's very delicious, you will definitely be addicted to it if you taste it."

Fu Hang: Not really

Fu Zhiqing, this is what we just picked up, it's very fresh.

Fu Hang: I see.

Fu Zhiqing, don't you really want to taste it......

Fu Hang looked at their little hands that were red from the cold, and he couldn't bear to waste their minds, and he really couldn't swallow them. It's just that these kids aren't pranks, they genuinely share what they like. But how can anyone eat bugs? How could anyone eat bugs?

Fu Hang had a deep question, his facial features were slightly entangled, and he pinched the chopsticks and slowly picked one up. The chopsticks caught it, and the crispy case of the insect broke.

But no matter how crispy it is, it's a bug too.

r />

Well?

Fu Hang opened his eyes and chewed slowly, as if ...... Not bad?

Hahahaha......

Zhao Ke watched his expression change, and his smile was uncontrollable, and his laughter was extremely hearty. Fu Hang watched her lose his mind.

It doesn't seem to be useless, at least...... She had a good laugh today.
