Chapter 234 70 The Educated Youth Heroine's Excellent Sister-in-law 19
Those standing in the front were all from Xilingzi Village. People like them who came from other villages to watch the fun couldn't squeeze in at all and could only watch from the back.
Then Zhang Dayou said, "You can choose which team you want to go to. You can go back with the team leader in a while. They will arrange everything for you. You can go to work over there and don't need to come here."
Although the brigade headquarters is in Xilingzi, the three teams usually work separately. There is no need for him, the brigade leader, to make unified arrangements, and the team leaders are responsible for making their own arrangements.
Things like farm tools and scoring were all kept separately. There was no other way. The three villages were relatively small and the population was small, so they had to be merged into one brigade. However, there was still some distance between them, and only a few fields were connected. It would be difficult to manage them in a unified way, so each village managed its own.
Afterwards, the six educated youth discussed it among themselves, and then they consciously formed groups of two and chose a village, and were then taken away by the team leader in charge of them.
Although Xilingzi Village has a team leader, there is also a squad leader, which is for the sake of fairness.
There was a man and a woman following behind Chen Jingchuan. One of them was the man that Xiao Yun had previously thought looked rougher than a country boy. He looked quite strong, but not tall, barely around 1 meters, which was not considered tall in the north even now.
The real protagonists had left, and the onlookers also dispersed. Xiao Yunyun looked around, but didn't see Xiao Tiedan and the others, and didn't know when they ran away.
She followed her fellow villagers back. It was almost noon, so it was just the right time for them to have lunch.
Xiao Yun was still walking at the back, while Chen Yan and her little sisters were walking in front. The group of girls were whispering to each other, and from time to time someone would look back at her.
Xiao Yun had very good hearing and had heard what they were saying a long time ago.
She didn't say anything bad about her, but she said that those educated youth were average looking, some even not as good looking as those in her village.
Well, this is a compliment to her. She does have good taste.
However, Chen Yan's occasional glare made her feel a little uncomfortable and confused. She thought about turning around and staring at her with her spiritual sense. Anyway, her home was not far from hers and was within the range of her spiritual sense.
Although I am not so arrogant as to think that I can please everyone, this inexplicable hostility always has a source.
She was very sure that neither the original body nor herself had ever offended the other party. So there must be something she didn't know about, so it would be better to find out.
When I got home, I found that Xiao Tiedan had already returned and was helping grandma light the fire. The rice was almost cooked.
"I'm back. Wash your hands quickly. We'll have dinner soon. How are those educated youth? Do they look easy to get along with?"
Grandma Xiao asked when she saw her come back.
"It's OK, he's no different from the people in our village. There's a man who comes here who looks rougher than the villagers. If you don't tell me, you can't tell he's from the city.
Why didn't you ask me to come with you when you came back? I couldn't find you when I turned around. "
Xiao Yun answered his grandmother's questions while washing his hands, and the last sentence was directed to his stinky little brother.
Grandma Xiao asked them to turn off the fire, otherwise the pot would be dry.
Xiao Tiedan pulled out the unburned firewood and extinguished it, while replying: "They still have to go to collect grass for the pigs, and I don't have to go, and I have to come back for lunch, so we just go our separate ways."
When Xiao Yun saw his grandmother unsealing the pot, he hurried into the house to help set the table, and then they brought the food from the stove in the yard into the house.
The day was getting hotter and hotter, especially because it wasn't raining and the dry heat was even more uncomfortable. I thought about setting up a thatched shed in the yard, in front of the aisle leading to the backyard, where there is a breeze and it is the coolest.
You can eat there and sit there to enjoy the cool air after dinner.
Xiao Yun knelt down as soon as he thought of it. After dinner, he grabbed Xiao Tiedan, who still wanted to go out and have fun, and asked him to set up a shed with him.
The wood was ready. Before the trees on the mountain were returned to the collective, she had instigated her family to bring back a lot of wood to dry in the sun, just in preparation for this day.
Of course, they were not all piled together. Instead, there were a few in the front yard and two in the corners of the backyard. The bulk of the pile was placed under the firewood shed, with two layers of firewood piled on top, which could not be seen from the outside.
At first, her grandparents didn't understand what she was doing, but Xiao Yun just said that she wanted to learn carpentry and fooled them.
Of course, it's not a sham. Her carpentry skills are good and she is a master at refining equipment. She has basically replaced all the tables, chairs and benches in her home, making them beautiful, sturdy and durable.
Xiao Yun went to the backyard and picked up a few pieces of wood as thick as thighs and carried them over to process them first. He drew lines and asked Tiedan to dig four holes at the four corners.
Tiedan was very excited when he heard about building a shed. He loved doing this. The pigpen and chicken coop at home were built by him and his sister together.
Just when they were working happily, Pangdun and the others came to find him. Tiedan simply said that he couldn't go out. But when Pangdun and the others heard that they were going to set up the shed, they stayed to help.
With more people there is more power. Xiao Yun only focused on collecting the wood and left all the other trivial matters to them.
For example, the thatch to be placed on the roof can be tied into small strands, and mixed with mud and other things.
A group of young boys helped and kept asking questions. Xiao Yun didn't need to answer them because these tough guys understood them.
This guy is quite patient. He answers all the questions seriously.
For example, why do we need to burn these woods, why do we need to add wood ash and chopped grass to the mud, and why do we use wooden wedges instead of nails to fix the wood?
Xiao Yun originally planned to build the shed over two or three days, but it was completed in just one afternoon. Even the floor inside was paved with stone slabs picked up from the back mountain.
There used to be a stone-paved path in their yard, from the front door to the yard gate, as well as to the toilet and the backyard, all of which were paved by Xiao Yun and his sister.
At that time, the old couple of the Xiao family thought that they had nothing to do, but when it started to rain, they found that having this stone road was indeed much more convenient. Not only did they not have to worry about slipping in the mud, but they also didn’t have to get their shoes dirty.
Xiao Yun did not let the children's work in vain. When they left, he gave each of them a handful of roasted chestnuts, which he had harvested in the mountains last autumn. If they were not eaten now, they would go bad.
They had dinner in the thatched pavilion in the evening, and left the tables, chairs and benches inside after eating.
It is cool, but the only bad thing is there are mosquitoes. Even lighting mugwort doesn't help.
The conditions just don’t allow it now, otherwise we wouldn’t have to worry if we surrounded it with a gauze curtain.
When my grandparents came back in the afternoon, they were very happy to see the shed. My grandfather even sat inside and smoked a pack of cigarettes.
Xiao Yun built a half-circle fence with wood, just like the pavilions in the park, and the wooden boards on top could be used as chairs.
