Chapter 35: Crying
Shen Ruyi told them that when Meng Bin was working in the field, he accidentally cut his foot and cut off two toes, and now he has been sent to the hospital for treatment.
Shen Ruyi said: "Meng Bin was injured this time, so he should be able to return to the city." ”
There is only one place for male intellectuals to return to the city, and Meng Bin has already gotten it, and other male intellectuals have no share.
"The quota on the female intellectual's side will not necessarily fall to anyone?" Shen Ruyi sighed.
It means that whoever is hard enough on themselves can go back to the city.
Luo Jingyan didn't know much about Meng Bin, she only knew that the other party looked like her name, and Si Siwen was polite, but she didn't expect to have such a deep heart and such a ruthless heart.
I don't know what kind of fight will happen on the female intellectual's side because of returning to the city.
Because the agricultural tools used by the educated youth and the members are sickles, there is no need to return them to the warehouse for the time being, and they will be returned after the wheat is cut.
The wheat that has been cut with a sickle for a day will definitely become dull and must be sharpened for the next day to be useful.
Those who have a whetstone at home use a whetstone to grind it, and those who do not have a whetstone can also use a few strokes on the edge of the water tank.
Luo Jingyan saw that Chen Zhiyu was lowering his head and sharpening the sickle with a whetstone, and he seemed to be struggling.
Tong Jianxin walked over and patted him on the shoulder, "You get up, I'll grind." ”
Tong Jianxin couldn't go back to the city this time, he sighed and went back to the dormitory with his head down.
Compared with Chen Zhiyu's depressed mood, Tong Jianxin seemed to be able to see it very clearly, and he said to Luo Jingyan and Luo Changtian: "Two Luo Zhiqing, put your sickle here with me, and I will sharpen it for you." ”
Luo Jingyan handed him the sickle of herself and Luo Changtian: "Then thank you, Tong Zhiqing." ”
"It's a trivial matter, but it's not enough to worry about. Remember your sickle, and you will not take it wrong when you take it for a while. ”
"Okay."
In the hospital, Meng Bin, who was being treated, lay on the hospital bed, looked at the ceiling above his head, and said to himself: Lao Chen, don't blame me, you want to go back to the city, I want to go back to the city, people don't kill for themselves, I have lost two toes, and I have already paid the price.
Educated youth, educated youths have worked for a day, and it is false to say that they are not tired.
The old intellectuals are a little better, they are not too noisy and tired, but the new intellectuals are different.
Jiang Manyue complained to Luo Jingyan.
"Jingyan, it turns out that doing farm work is really hard and tiring."
"It's tiring, but what's so easy? No matter how tiring the farm work is, someone must do it. ”
"Hey, it's hard to get tired to exercise myself, I just want to complain, complain, I have to go to work tomorrow."
After eating, the three new intellectuals sat under the kerosene lamp and picked up the blisters on their hands from farm work with their needles.
Du Yinan kept crying and crying because of pain and fatigue, but because she was afraid of Liu Huifang, she didn't dare to amplify her voice, only sobbed quietly, and wiped her tears from time to time.
"Woo woo, I have several blisters on my hands, it hurts, I haven't suffered such a sin since I was a child."
During the day, she was reprimanded several times by the team leader because she didn't do a good job, and at home, who dared to scold her and teach her a lesson.
"Even if you are tired and injured, you still have to suffer the anger of others, when can you return to the city to get rid of such a hard life?"
She saw Luo Jingyan sitting on the side of the kang peacefully, her palms were half exposed, she didn't see half a blister on the other party's hand, so she asked Luo Jingyan in a bad tone: "The four of us are all new educated youths, Shanshan and I and the full moon have blisters on our hands, why don't you have blisters on your hands?" ”
She suddenly thought that Luo Jingyan must have been lazy when she went to work, didn't work hard, or seduced a man like on the train and asked the man to help her work, and she fell easily, so there were no blisters on her hands.
Luo Jingyan deliberately stretched out her palm towards her: "Look, there are no blisters, it's still white and tender." How about it, you envy it, envy you to death. ”
"You must not have worked well, otherwise, your hands cannot be good."
"It's none of your business if my hands are good or not." Luo Jingyan said: "The reason why there is no bubble on my hands is because my palms are wear-resistant, and my palms are very hard, I don't believe you stretch your face over and try it." ”
"You want me to feel it with my face?"
"Yes, I'll slap you, you can try the power to know."
"Hahahaha."
Everyone else laughed, and Du Yinan snorted coldly: "I knew you didn't have a good heart." ”
Shen Ruyi said: "Du Zhiqing, people Jingyan is joking with you." You just slandered people for not doing a good job. ”
"Then why are her hands so good, our hands are blistered."
"I said, my palms are hard, why don't you try it?" Luo Jingyan held out her hand.
"I'm not going to try."
Du Yinan twisted his face to the side and said nothing more.
After a day's work, she sweated a lot during the day, and her body was stained with a lot of wheat and dust, Luo Jingyan wanted to take a hot bath, otherwise the stabbing on her body would be uncomfortable, and she would not be able to sleep well at night.
She looked around the school and couldn't find a place to take a bath.
As long as she is given private space, she can enter the space to take a bath, but there are no such conditions now.
Liu Huifang and Shen Ruyi boiled hot water together, brought it to the dormitory, plugged in the dormitory door, closed the curtains of rags, took off their clothes, and wiped their bodies with towels.
Their expressions were natural, and they didn't seem to be too embarrassed in the face of the new educated youth.
But Luo Jingyan couldn't stand it anymore, she felt that she was playing hooligan when she looked at it more, so she quickly turned her head away.
Liu Huifang said: "Hey, there's nothing to be embarrassed about, after a long time, you can get used to it and wipe your body like us." You should have entered the women's bathhouse, isn't everyone in the bathhouse like this? It's all women, what's so embarrassing? ”
Although what Liu Huifang said was true, Luo Jingyan still couldn't stand showing her body in front of others, even in front of female comrades.
"Why don't you build a bathroom or something, there are so many educated youth, and it's definitely not a waste to build one."
"Nobody takes the money." Shen Ruyi said: "The male intellectuals have gone to bathe in the river, and they don't need a bath. The female intellectuals thought that it was enough to wipe it in the dormitory, but it really didn't work, so they went to the bathhouse in the county town to wash it, and it didn't cost much. But it cost a lot of money to build a bathroom, because there was no money, so it was not built. ”
If others don't pay, Luo Jingyan won't be the wronged leader, and she may not be able to live for a long time.
She remembered the abandoned house in the yard and discussed with Jiang Manyue: "Full moon, why don't we go to the house outside to wash, when you wash, I will help you look at the wind, and when I wash, you help me look at the wind." ”
"Okay, but the window isn't safe, you can see inside from the outside."
"I have a piece of cloth in my box, pull it on when I use it, and take it off when I don't use it."
"Okay, then I'll go boil the water first."
"Hmm."
When they walked outside, Luo Jingyan said, "You have heard the story of the house." ”
"I heard that, Urryan told me in private, there's nothing to be afraid of, and people don't die in the house."
"That's right, there's nothing to be afraid of, don't scare yourself."
"I'm going to boil water."
"I'm going to rip the cloth."
After the water was boiled, Luo Jingyan asked Jiang Manyue to wash it first, and she watched the wind outside.
Not long after, Luo Jingyan saw Fang Zhiyuan going out from time to time and glanced over here.
But there was no kerosene lamp in the house, and it was black and there were curtains, so he could see nothing.
After Jiang Manyue washed it, he changed Luo Jingyan to go in and wash it.
After Luo Jingyan plugged in the latch, she went directly into the space, and she saw that the black tiger was sleeping on her big bed, its fluffy body curled up, and its head buried in the hair.
She didn't want to disturb the black tiger, so she walked out of the bedroom lightly, entered the bathroom, put water in the bathtub, and lay down comfortably.
For fear that Jiang Manyue outside would be in a hurry, she didn't dare to soak for too long, and came out after almost washing up.
Then he used his hands to pry the water in the basin of the house a few times, made the illusion of washing, opened the door, and poured the remaining water into the vegetable patch to water the vegetables.
Luo Jingyan went to call Luo Changtian and asked him to go in and wash, otherwise she was really afraid that the child would not be able to sleep at night, and she didn't dare to let Luo Changtian go down to the river to take a bath, and told him, "Whoever asks you to go to the river to bathe, don't go with them, the river is too dangerous, you know?" ”
"I know, sister, I listen to my sister."
"Good brother."
Du Yinan and Lin Shanshan saw Luo Jingyan and Jiang Manyue taking a bath in that room, and they also wanted to wash in it.
When Luo Jingyan picked up the cloth on the window, Du Yinan stopped her: "Luo Zhiqing, we also want to go in and wash it, don't take off your cloth." ”
Luo Jingyan casually ripped off the cloth.
"You want to go in and wash yourselves, and cover them with your own cloth."
"Then don't cover it up."
"How can you do it if you don't cover it, there are many men and young people here in our courtyard, what if someone looks at it?"
"What's my business?"
Luo Jingyan folded the cloth, and Du Yinan stopped her: "Luo Zhiqing, we don't have a cloth, you can borrow it from us, otherwise, we can't wash it." ”
