Chapter 225 70 The Educated Youth Heroine's Excellent Sister-in-law 10
Xiao Yun did not touch the money of other members of the Zhang family. One reason was that the money was not much, and the other party had no grudge against her so far, so there was no need to mess with them and cause trouble for herself.
Anyway, she had dealt with Zhang Guowang and his brother who had beaten Grandpa Xiao in the first life when they came to disgust her. As long as they didn't come to her again, Xiao Yun would stick to the principle of less trouble is better.
……
In this way, time passed slowly, and soon it was the year 1958. What was supposed to come finally came. A large canteen was built in the village, the land became collective, blast furnaces rose from the ground, and black smoke billowed everywhere.
Many trees on the mountain have been cut down. The previously lush and green area has now become bare, and even the tree stumps underneath have been dug away.
All the ironware in the house was taken away, even the door locks and the iron chains and door noses were removed. Now the inside and outside are the same, with wooden door bolts.
Every household is poor now, so it actually makes no difference whether the door is locked or not. But the Xiao family has pensions and child support, and everyone knows about it, so it’s not like no one has thought about it.
There are also a few families in the village who got married and had children in the past two years, and they came here to borrow some money, but they don’t have any friendship, they are not relatives or friends, they are just from the same village, and the Xiao family will definitely not lend them money.
The other party won't bother you. They just come to try. If they can borrow it, they will lend it. If they can't, it doesn't matter.
The rest are fine. There are really no lazy people or scoundrels in the village. Under the management of the old branch secretary, the atmosphere in this village is still good.
Otherwise, the original body would not have been able to raise her younger brother safely after her grandparents passed away and her mother ignored her. If there really was a bad guy like that, how could the two children stop him?
However, the fact that there is no infection in the village does not mean that there is no infection in other villages. We still need to be on guard.
Because Xiao Yun had revealed his great strength before, and the same goes for Tiedan, who is only eight years old but has the strength of an adult. In addition to going to school in the countryside, he also helps with work in the fields. The Xiao family's life is better than others imagine.
Xiao Yun, the grandparents of the Xiao family, were also given spleen-strengthening pills, which were put in the soup for everyone to eat together, so their physical fitness was improved. Although the two old people still look pale and thin and have not gained any flesh, they have not been sick in the past few years, especially the little old man, who works like a strong man.
However, in the eyes of outsiders, this is because there is no new generation of men to set up shop in the family, so they have to hold on. Only they themselves know that they don’t feel tired after a day’s work.
But things are different now. My family no longer has land, and we will be working together as a group in the future. We have to take it easy to avoid working in vain.
In fact, no one reacted at the beginning. They thought it would be great if we could work and eat together in the future. But after two months of eating together, the canteen ran out of food. Then everyone realized that even though they ate together, the amount of food was still the same and there was no increase.
Also, you are not allowed to hunt wild animals in the mountains. You can pick up some branches for firewood, but you cannot cut down trees at will. You need a note approved by the government. You also need receipts to buy things, and you may not be able to buy them even with a receipt. It is very inconvenient.
Fortunately, all the trees around were cut down when steel was being made. Although there are fewer pheasants and rabbits without the trees, the wild boars have been driven into the mountains. At least they will not come down easily to harm the crops.
But even so, the village will still organize a walk in the mountains in autumn. Militiamen will go with guns and they will always shoot a few wild boars, which can be regarded as maintaining the ecological balance.
Xiao Yun would not go at this time. Although she was very strong, after all, the people who went there were men, and it would be inconvenient for a little girl like her.
As the weather got hotter, everyone noticed something unusual. From the Chinese New Year to now, there have been only two rains in four months, and neither was heavy. The crops needed irrigation at that time, and if it continued like this, there would definitely be no harvest.
Xiao Yun was walking on the path beside the field, frowning when he saw everyone bending over with hoes to weed. The drought had only left the crop seedlings withered, while the weeds had grown even more lush. They had to be weeded almost every other day, otherwise they would take away the already scarce moisture.
She asked Jiaduobao: "If I can create artificial rainfall, will it change the course of the world?"
Jia Duo Bao was a little surprised. Xiao Yun was not a compassionate person. What happened today? "Why did you suddenly think of this?"
Xiao Yun did not answer, "Just tell me if it counts or not."
Jiaduobao gave a positive answer, "It shouldn't be the case. After all, artificial rainfall also has prerequisites. With the current level of technology, it can only be done in a very small range and will not cause much change.
Unless you want to use it on a large scale, but then you will have to use your advanced high technology, and the Heavenly Dao probably won’t allow it.”
Xiao Yun curled his lips, "Then please ask for me, just in case it can be used, and by the way, ask if I will gain merit by doing this."
Jiaduobao: It turns out that I was overthinking it. How could this wicked thing suddenly become kind and selfless? It turns out that he was trying to gain merit.
"Then I'll go ask. If possible, I can help you. We can act separately and proceed at the same time."
It also needs merit, which is good for its soul. Didn’t you see that after the last world, its soul is much stronger than before?
"Okay, go ahead and ask for details."
After Jiaduobao left, she quickened her pace and soon arrived at the plot of land that her grandfather was in charge of. Grandma Xiao was not here, but was in another field with the women in the village.
Now people work in teams and groups, with men on one side and women on the other. The middle-aged and the old, weak and disabled are also separated, so as to avoid slowing down the progress of the middle-aged people.
After several years of brainwashing by Xiao Yun, Grandpa Xiao no longer just worked blindly like before. Especially after seeing many people of his age working without putting in any effort, he learned how to slack off without any guidance.
"Grandpa! I brought you some water. Come over and rest for a while and drink some water."
Xiao Yun shouted to the old man who was wearing a straw hat and hoeing the ground slowly in the middle of the field.
This straw hat was woven by Xiao Yun. It is made of wheat straw. After being soaked in rice water, it turns into a bright golden color. It is much better looking than others. He has woven quite a few of them before, and his grandfather has taken them to the market to sell them.
"Did you drink your milk?"
Grandpa Xiao took off his straw hat and used it to fan himself, then asked as he took the military water bottle handed to him by his granddaughter.
"I drank it. I went to my grandma's place first. By the way, when I came here, I heard the team said that each family should go to a meeting in the evening."
After drinking the water, Grandpa Xiao wiped his mouth with the towel hanging around his neck and replied, "Okay, I understand. You go back first. I have only one acre of land left to hoe. I'll go back when I'm done."
Xiao Yun nodded, "Okay, I'll go back and cook dinner first. Tiedan will be back soon. He's always hungry when he comes back. His stomach is like a bottomless pit."
Grandpa Xiao said with a smile: "This is just the beginning. In two years, he will be able to eat more. That's when he will eat me out of money..."
