Chapter 233 The chosen cannon fodder just wants to live (13)
Before the show ended in the evening, Geng Dong said to Zheng Xuemin: "After we have finished our work, we will apply to build two additional rooms, and we will build two small rooms against the west wall."
Zheng Xuemin nodded.The two are married and have to live a happy life.Maybe there will be a child soon.
Originally, they had not planned to get married so early, and they thought they could wait until they returned to the city and have their parents help arrange the wedding.
They came from the same place, and there was no secret about going to the countryside. Other children, big or small, were suitable for them.
At that time, the policy of going to the countryside had just come out, and everyone was ignorant. They followed the policy and did not think about how to escape.Unlike later, people who went to the countryside early provided a lot of material about rural life, letting them know the hardships in the countryside. Parents who loved their children helped find solutions, and unloved children were pushed out to ward off disasters.
How many masks of warmth have been torn off?How many family conflicts have been triggered?
When Geng Dong and Zheng Xuemin first went to the countryside, they were still writing letters and sending things to their families. However, as time went by, they received fewer and fewer letters from home, and their subsidies were reduced again and again.
On Geng Dong's side, his eldest brother had given birth to two children, and his parents had to help raise their grandchildren. With more people sharing the money, there would be less for him.
On Zheng Xuemin's side, not only did her eldest brother give birth to a child, but her younger sister also reached the age of going to the countryside. In order to avoid going to the countryside, she found someone to marry. Her parents had to help buy the dowry and prepare the remaining money. They were busy, where could they go? Take care of her.
It is said that the fragrance from far away smells close to you, but this fragrance and smell are also reflected in the words.What really worries parents is the child in front of them.
Their parents must have said good things about Geng Dong and Zheng Xuemin, but what's the use?It's better to give him a scolding and give him some benefits!
It's a little better now. They're far away and the conflicts won't show up. When the two of them return to the city, they will be involved in various problems, such as house and work.
Ji Shan feels that many parents’ brain circuits are sometimes abnormal.Children who come back after being away from home for many years are as if they are no longer their children.
They take care of work, weddings, children, and houses for the children around them. When this person who has been away from home for many years comes back, he opens his mouth and says: "You have been away for so many years, and everyone is used to living like this. I can't just let you live when you come back." My nephews and nieces don’t have a place to live. My parents have relied on your elder brothers, sisters-in-law, younger brothers and sisters to take care of me these years, and you haven’t been filial to me, so don’t argue with them."
Good guy!My nieces and nephews have the nerve to leave their uncles and aunts without a place to live. Why should I be embarrassed?Didn't you show your filial piety?Is it because we don’t want to?Are we unwilling?
I can go to yours!
Unfortunately, these educated youths were young when they left home and were naturally dependent on their families and parents. Once they could return to the city, the first thing they thought of was going home.
Most people have to go back and hit a brick wall to realize that everything has changed.
I wish Geng Dong and Zheng Xuemin will not encounter such bad things in the future.
Although the marriage process was advanced because of Liang Xiaohua, the two newlyweds were still very happy. They were going to get married anyway, it was a matter of sooner or later.
Moreover, both of them are already 23 years old, and they still have no hope of returning to the city. Even if they get married, they can have a family of their own.
The work of harvesting sweet potatoes only lasted about ten days.The whole village worked together and the process was very fast.
After all the dried sweet potatoes have been picked up and stored in the warehouse, some children in the village, and a few people whose families are in difficulty or who are particularly good at living, will carry baskets and rakes and go to the fields to look for the remaining small sweet potatoes or missing ones. Pick up clean dried sweet potatoes.
This is the same as picking up the wheat ears after the wheat harvest.
Time has entered November, and it has also entered the slack period.
Geng Dong found the team leader and applied to him to build a house in the Educated Youth Institute.
"We are already married and it is not suitable to stay in the same room again."
The brigade leader told him: "It's okay to build a house, but the brigade can't give you the money to build the house. If you don't have a place to live, the brigade is obliged to build an extra room, but now you have a place to live, but you I want a change. Do you understand?"
This is actually not difficult to understand. This is the issue of affordable housing and improved housing.The production team has an obligation to provide affordable housing, but has no obligation to help you improve it.
"I understand. Captain. We will pay for the materials to build the house, but we have to ask you to help organize some manpower."
"Don't worry about this. The team always has ready-made adobes and can build houses very quickly."
The brigade captain is a real person. The day after Geng Dong told him, he came to the Educated Youth Institute for inspection, estimated the amount of adobe needed to build a house, and gave a rough budget. After Geng Dong and Zheng Xuemin confirmed it, He went back to organize people.
The winter in Shiliang is really relaxing. Apart from occasionally answering the call of the brigade and the commune to dig a ditch, there is basically nothing to do.
When the gentlemen have nothing to do, they just bask in the sun, chat and brag at the foot of the south wall.
Whose family has more income this year, whose family doesn’t even have enough to eat, who dares to beat their wives at home, who visits the widow’s house in the middle of the night...
Female comrades would drop by to chat about family affairs and gossip when they had nothing to do.
Whose blind date was a joke, whose young man had difficulty marrying a wife, whose girl got into a pile of firewood with someone, whose old woman and daughter-in-law had a quarrel, whose child said outside that his parents were fighting in the middle of the night, whose The old ladies in the family have come up with new ways of scolding people...
Everyone was chatting and laughing obscenely.
The Educated Youth Institute is busy here. The male educated youth are helping to build a house in the front yard, and the female educated youth are conducting starch experiments in the backyard.
Ji Shan had nothing to do, so she wanted to see the place where the original owner's accident happened.
A lightning strike is an accident and a very rare event, but there must be some inducement that causes the lightning strike to occur.
A lightning strike is a discharge phenomenon that occurs when electric charges accumulate to a certain extent and penetrate the air.The taller and pointier an object is, the more likely it is to be struck by lightning.
Ji Shan is neither tall nor pointed, so it was a bit strange to be struck by lightning.Unless she is really a rare unlucky person in the world.
After breakfast that day, Ji Shan told Zhao Hongxia and planned to go out for a walk.
Zhao Hongxia, who is addicted to shopping for juice, waved her hand: "Go early and come back early."
Wang Fuzhi put down what he was doing and said, "I'll go with you."
"it is good."
Ji Shan waited for her to finish washing her hands, then went back to the room and changed into a coat.
The two walked out of the Educated Youth Home together.
"Where are we going?" Wang Fuzhi asked her.
"Let's go in the direction of the wheat fields. During the time I've been here, I've only been running to the mountains. I haven't been to any other place yet."
"Let's go, sister will take you there."
Ji Shan smiled and said, "Thank you, sister."
Wang Fuzhi raised his hand and pinched her face again.She was washing pulp just now. Although she had washed her hands with clean water, there was still a little starch left on them. Her hands were a little rough but smooth.
Ji Shan didn't hide.She didn't exert any effort, she just squeezed it for fun.
"So nice."
Wang Fuzhi seriously felt that Ji Shan was too good.
She is the eldest daughter in the family and has a younger brother.Originally, she was supposed to have a younger sister, who was a twin with her younger brother.
When the two children were just born, when she was more than three years old, she went over to look at the two little red-skinned monkeys. At that time, her mother asked her, which one looked better?
She curled her lips and said, "None of them look good."
It made my parents laugh.
When I went to see it the next day, there was only one left.
The newborn sister was weak and did not survive.
At that time, there were so many children who were dying, and parents would be sad for a while.
She was still young at the time, didn't understand anything, and didn't even experience sadness.
But in the years to come, she would occasionally wonder what it would be like if her sister were still alive.
Therefore, she always pays more attention and tolerance to girls who are a few years younger than her.
Not to mention Ji Shan is so cute and cute.
After squeezing his face, Wang Fuzhi took out two pieces of toffee from his pocket and gave it to her, and whispered: "Eat. There are not many sisters left, so we can't share it with everyone. You eat it secretly."
Ji Shan was not polite, she peeled off a piece and stuffed it into her mouth, then peeled off another piece and stuffed it into Wang Fuzhi's mouth.
The two of them ate sweets while strolling towards the wheat field.
The original owner was struck by lightning on his way back from the wheat field to the educated youth spot.
When she reached the scene of the incident, Ji Shan stopped.
In fact, she didn't need to get too close to know that the original owner was really unlucky.
