Chapter 230 70 The Educated Youth Heroine's Excellent Sister-in-law 15
While having dinner in the evening, I told my grandparents what we saw when we went to the mountain. Of course, we also told them about the encounter with that man. This was the decision we made after discussing it after we came back.
If Xiao Yun was the only one who knew about it, she would definitely not tell it, but her younger brother was with her, and although her younger brother was not the kind of person who would talk without restraint, it would still be better to tell her grandparents.
This will also prevent Xiao Tiedan from acting on his own and not telling his family anything in the future. It can be regarded as a good habit that Xiao Yun is going to teach him.
What she hates most is people who keep quiet and make you guess everything.
However, Xiao Yun also expressed his own guess, saying that he seemed to have vaguely seen the red star on the other person's hat at that time.
When my grandparents heard that it might be a soldier carrying out a mission, they decided not to tell the team about it. After all, there are many people in the team and they are gossipy. What if they were carrying out a secret mission and they ruined it? Wouldn’t that be a mistake?
Their own son is a soldier, so they have some awareness of this.
Although I am a little scared, since that person did not harm my grandchildren, it means he is not an enemy.
However, he still gave the two younger ones a scolding and told them not to go up the mountain alone in the future. Even if they were not afraid of wild beasts, what if there were enemies hiding in the mountain?
The two siblings also agreed obediently and promised not to go up the mountain again during this period of time. Only then did the two elders feel relieved.
It was just getting dark after dinner and Grandpa Xiao was ready to go to Xilingzi for a meeting with a flashlight. Xiao Yun asked to go with him, mainly because he was worried about his grandfather being alone.
Grandpa Xiao disagreed and thought it was better for girls not to go out at night. But in the end, he decided not to go out alone and took Tiedan with him.
Although Grandpa Xiao is in better health now, he is still not as strong as Tiedan. If anything really happens, Tiedan can help.
After the grandfather and grandson went out, Xiao Yun bolted the door from the inside and waited for them to come back and knock on the door before opening it.
She even used her spiritual sense to escort the two of them for a distance, but when they were a hundred meters away she could do nothing anymore.
To be honest, I was used to using spiritual sense in the previous world, so it feels really awkward to be suddenly restricted in this world.
She felt that she should work hard to learn some other skills in the future and improve her fighting power. She couldn't always rely on those cheats. If those cheats were no longer useful one day, she would just have to wait for death.
Unexpectedly, coming to this ordinary little world gave her an unprecedented sense of urgency.
She did not return to her own room, but went to her grandparents' room carrying a ceramic candlestick, ready to accompany her grandmother and wait for the grandparents to come back, otherwise she would be worried.
The two of them were not idle either. They made shoes and sewed soles while talking.
The soles of shoes worn by family members were almost all sewn by Xiao Yun. Not only was her hand strong but also flexible. The stitches on the soles she made were neat and the size and spacing were all the same.
Grandma Xiao watched her granddaughter without watching her eyes as she pierced the needle one after another quickly, with dense and neat stitches, her eyes full of admiration.
Her granddaughter is really good in every way. Not only is she good-looking, but she is also very strong and good at needlework. She can do everything at home and outside. There is no one else like her in the whole village.
Suddenly thinking of something, Grandma Xiao said, "Today I heard from Fatty's grandma that some cultural youths are coming to support our construction. I don't know how many will come. Don't be like those people in Songjiapu. Not only are they incompetent, but they also give orders blindly. They almost delayed the planting last year."
Starting from the year before last, educated youth began to come from several villages close to the town. They were the first group to volunteer to go to the countryside. They came with great ambitions. As soon as they arrived, they said they wanted to teach the local farmers how to farm scientifically.
Everyone was full of expectations, but they were disappointed as soon as they took action. They were all old hands who had been farming for a lifetime, and it was obvious at first glance that they only knew theory and had never put it into practice. It was all just talk.
But a few educated youth didn't think so and insisted that everyone follow them. As a result, they gave blind orders and almost missed the good time for sowing.
It is indeed a bit unreliable to use the knowledge they learned from books to teach those experienced farmers who have been farming for a lifetime.
Fortunately, there were not many people going to the countryside at that time, and they all really had ideals and ambitions and wanted to go to the countryside to support construction. Most of them listened to advice and would not mess around. They quickly discovered their mistakes and corrected them, slowly found true knowledge from practice, and integrated into rural life.
Of course, there were also those who could not hold on and returned to the city. It was still convenient to return to the city at that time, unlike later when it was mandatory. In order to ease the pressure in the city and disperse the unemployed young people, they were sent to the countryside on a large scale.
Moreover, they are getting younger and younger. Not only can they not do anything, but they are also always busy. It is easy to go to the countryside but difficult to return to the city.
"Does Grandma Pangdun know when she will come? How many people are coming? We don't have any empty houses for them to stay in here. Should we arrange for them to stay in Xilingzi?"
Grandma Xiao used a pair of scissors to cut the wick of the candle to make it brighter. "I don't know exactly how many there are. If there are fewer, they must be over there. If there are more, it's hard to say. I guess it will be divided equally among the three villages. I'll ask Grandma Pangdun tomorrow."
As for why Pangdun’s grandmother knew it so clearly, it was because her family was related to the old branch secretary’s family. The old branch secretary Chen Laogen was Pangdun’s great uncle, so they knew the news earlier.
Xiao Yun: "In fact, even if they come, it won't affect us. My uncle Gen and Uncle Jingchuan won't be fooled easily. Are they afraid that they won't be able to control two young people who have just arrived?"
Grandma Xiao nodded, "That's true, Jingchuan is just like your old grandfather, that face can intimidate people.
By the way, the water level in our well hasn’t dropped, has it? Grandma Pangdun said that the water levels in the three public wells in the village have dropped a lot.
Xiao Yun shook her head. She had been keeping an eye on the well water every day these past few days, so she knew that the well water level at home had not dropped.
She really didn't do anything about this. The water level in the well at home has always been stable. She would pump out some water on the first day, and the water level would return to its original level on the next day.
She had already prepared to secretly release some space water.
"That's good, that's good. You know what, the well digger your father found is really good. Wherever he finds a well, water will come out. I heard that this skill is passed down from his ancestors."
Grandma Xiao said with a smile.
Xiao Yun agreed, "They make a living from this, they must have their own secrets. The three people in our village also went to their family to fight, right? This must have been going on for hundreds of years."
Grandma Xiao: "Yes, we are looking for his great grandfather, not only from our village, but also from several surrounding villages."
Xiao Yun's eyes flashed, and he thought he might ask Jiaduobao to go check on that family to see if they were really good at finding water sources, or if they had any special methods.
