Chapter 63: Du Shanshan’s Little Plan
“Sorry Shanshan, I didn’t cook that much, it’s not enough.”
Lin Weiwan looked at Du Shanshan’s eyes that were about to fall into the bacon bowl.
“Xiao Wan, can I eat with you in the future? Don’t worry, I will also chop wood and fetch water in the future.”
Su Shanshan felt that her life was in danger when she thought of the cooking skills of these people.
If she continued to eat like this, she would not be able to wait until the autumn harvest before her life was in danger.
Lin Weiwan raised her eyebrows, Du Shanshan wanted to share a meal with her. “Shanshan, I don’t think it’s convenient. I can cook whatever I want by myself. If I don’t want to cook, I can cook more and eat for a day.
I don’t have to calculate how much food I use every day, nor do I have to plan what to eat tomorrow.
I think Shanshan you should understand me.” Lin Weiwan politely refused.
Du Shanshan looked at Lin Weiwan and smiled a little far-fetchedly, “Okay, if I have the opportunity, I will build a house and do it myself.”
Du Shanshan thought it would be better to go to the city as soon as possible, sell more rice and flour, and then find the village chief to build a house.
There are still three years before the college entrance examination. Although poor, we should pay attention to the quality of life.
Anyway, with my academic qualifications, it won’t take long to get into Tsinghua or Peking University.
Ye Jibai looked at Li Zhaodi standing in front of him, her face as black as charcoal.
“Ye Zhiqing, these are the eggs I cooked for you. Take them back and eat them.”
Li Zhaodi looked at the handsome face in front of her, her heart was beating like a deer, and her heart was so excited that it was about to rise to her throat.
“I don’t want it, go away.” Ye Jibai walked away from Li Zhaodi with a cold face.
“Ye Jibai, my father is the accountant of the brigade. We will definitely be rated as advanced this year. Don’t you want to go back to the city?
As long as you marry me, you won’t have to work so hard to get a place in the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University.”
Li Zhaodi panted and said what she had been holding back in her heart, secretly hating Ye Jibai for not knowing what was good for her.
“Not interested.” Ye Jibai regretted not going off work with everyone else.
His hand unconsciously touched his pocket, which contained four wild duck eggs that he had just caught by the river.
The little girl can’t be starved to thinness, and the wife can only support herself. She heard the roar behind her.
It’s not easy to go to the countryside, so she doesn’t want to go back.
Ye Jibai just walked to the educated youth point and saw Lin Weiwan fetching water. He hurried over to help fetch the water.
“Thank you, have lunch quickly.” Lin Weiwan looked at Ye Jibai who came back late. Fortunately, Zhou Rongrong and Wang Ping were late today, otherwise Ye Jibai would not have had a meal.
“I’ll help you carry it first.” He said and carried the wooden bucket full of water directly to the place where Lin Weiwan built the stove.
He took out the wild duck eggs from his arms and put them in Lin Weiwan’s wooden basin. “Remember to eat.”
After saying that, he returned to the dining table to eat without looking back.
Xu Xiaohong saw Ye Jibai like this, and the chopsticks in her hand were about to break.
Lin Weiwan prepared the water and poured it into the thermos, and added a handful of white sugar.
Today, the whole village is digging sweet potatoes. It is estimated that those who work in the backyard will not come until the evening.
Prepare the sugar water, and you can go directly to the mountain to chop firewood after work.
After lying down for an hour at noon, he got up at one o’clock in the afternoon to go to work.
When he arrived at the field, Lin Weiwan saw that the field had been cut in less than a few meters, and Feng Qingzhen had not come yet.
Only more than 30 meters of the 60-meter field had been dug up.
Taking out the sickle from his waist, Lin Weiwan bent down and began to cut the seedlings.
“Lin Zhiqing, Lin Zhiqing.” Aunt Liu beside him looked at Lin Weiwan who was working and called softly.
“What’s wrong, Auntie.”
“Don’t be too serious, this work is endless, Feng Qingzhen deliberately dragged you, wanting you to work more.”
Lin Weiwan stood up straight and looked at Feng Qingzhen who was walking slowly on the ridge of the field.
“Thank you, Auntie, I know.” As he said that, he took out a handful of candies from his pocket and stuffed them into Aunt Liu’s pocket.
“Thank you for teaching me how to use a sickle today. Take this candy back and give it to the children to sweeten their mouths.”
“You kid, then I thank you on behalf of those monkeys.” Aunt Liu didn’t expect that her kind reminder would actually be exchanged for seven or eight White Rabbit milk candies.
This milk candy is a rare commodity. It is not available in the city. It is hard to get it even if you get some occasionally. It is usually only available in the city.
“Hurry up and work. You said others were lazy. I saw you standing here for a long time.”
Feng Qingzhen came over with a hoe and began to urge Lin Weiwan when she saw him standing there.
Lin Weiwan ignored Feng Qingzhen and turned around to quickly cut the sweet potato vines in the field.
He cut all the way to the end and became the first person to finish cutting the sweet potato vines.
He drank a sip of spiritual spring water to relieve the soreness in his waist.
“After cutting, hurry up and take the basket and the shoulder pole to carry it away. Do you need others to teach you?” Feng Qingzhen didn’t dig much, straightened her back and directed Lin Weiwan.
On the other side, Zhou Rongrong was also being chased by an old lady like a rabbit. Zhou Rongrong was so angry that she cried while cutting the sweet potato vines in the field.
Lin Weiwan turned around to change tools, but the difference was that this time he brought the scorekeeper with him.
“Comrade Li, I have already cut the sweet potato vines. Aunt Feng is too slow today. I am still building a house in my backyard.
Can you help me divide my part of the work? Once it is divided, I will do my part.”
The scorekeeper was a little surprised when he heard what Lin Weiwan said. This is the first time I have heard of dividing the work when earning work points in the village.
It has always been two people working together, and it has never been divided like this.
Feng Qingzhen was happy that Lin Weiwan worked more today, but she saw Lin Weiwan coming back with a basket and bringing the scorekeeper with him again.
She quickly put down the hoe in her hand and ran over. As soon as she came over, she heard the two people discussing how to divide the land.
“How can we divide it? We have always worked together. I am so tired from digging the land with a hoe, but she wants to divide it equally after cutting the seedlings easily. Why?”
Feng Qingzhen shouted loudly.
Many workers looked over here, but they did not react much to what Feng Qingzhen said.
There are advantages to digging sweet potatoes, but there are also difficulties in cutting seedlings.
Many people cannot straighten their backs when bending over to cut such a large area of sweet potato seedlings.
Although digging sweet potatoes requires more strength, the advantage is that you do not have to bend over all the time to work.
“What does Aunt Feng mean?” Lin Weiwan looked at Feng Qingzhen who was playing rogue.
“Of course we have to work together. I have been digging for a whole morning with my old back bent, and my arms are sore. You cannot divide it equally.
If you want to divide it, then you can carry two-thirds of the sweet potatoes back home.”
Feng Qingzhen felt that she was too smart. This must have made the young educated youth cry when he went back home tired.
“Comrade Li, Aunt Feng dug up a 39-meter-long sweet potato. How many work points would that usually be worth in previous years?”
Lin Weiwan asked the scorekeeper beside her.
“That usually gets three work points. It’s hard work to dig up the sweet potatoes and carry them to the drying yard and warehouse.”
“Then give me all the land, and I will do the rest of the work by myself.
Aunt Feng also said that she was exhausted, so you can give her another worker to do it.
I will definitely complete the task before the end of the work.”
