There is Room for Rebirth in the 1950’s

Chapter 90 Work (2 chapters in 1)

After the chickens cried in Zhangjia Village in the early morning, soon every household began to smoke and smoke, waiting for the harsh noise on the radio, which appeared on time as the work announcement inside.

The villagers in shabby, patched clothes gathered from their homes to the west entrance of the village one after another. The gathered crowd was laughing and joking, and some friendly people took the opportunity to avoid people discussing things, and The older ladies commented on their children and grandchildren, and the younger daughter-in-laws gathered in a group and whispered secretly.The unmarried girl shunned away when he heard the man say bad words, causing some big ladies to laugh.

The men who are relatively close together form a group and laugh from time to time.Not far away, children were running around and skewered.

After the old team leader uncle arranged the task and handed out the farm tools, everyone began to disperse slowly and walked towards their respective assigned places.

Huang Cuilan absent-mindedly and Lin Juhua and the others slowly walked towards the wheat field, hoeing weeds and uprooting grass roots.Collective labor in the village, there will be work points.From a distance, some people are working slowly and those who are fast have already begun to do their jobs. There are still people over there who are shaking slowly and slowly walking behind.

Fortunately, it is a slack farm now. Apart from cleaning up the weeds in the field, turning the land and picking up manure fields for next year's spring plowing, the captain did not say much, just urged everyone to stop the ink.

If the farmer is busy, the leader uncle will use a big loudspeaker to shout slogans around to encourage the villagers, and when the weather is good, they will go around and be busy.During the two seasons of farming every year, his voice is hoarse and the corners of his mouth bubble.

Huang Cuilan looked at the entrance of the village from time to time, even though she knew it was still early, she estimated that her son would not be back until after noon, but she was still worried and couldn't rest assured.

Lin Juhua walked close to her quickly, mowing the grass, looking around, and saying, "Sister-in-law, I'm worried about Xizi. It's okay. With his uncle here, I must follow his uncle last night and I should be back in the afternoon. I'll be back after lunch, or do you take time off and wait at home in the afternoon?"

"That's not okay. I didn't go to the ground all day yesterday, and I can't justify asking for leave. I can't bear this job point, it's much easier than farming. I don't worry, I want to see it from time to time, ha ha."

Lin Juhua gave her a white look. She was really stupid. He pulled up the weeds fiercely, muttering in his mouth, "I don't understand. Look at the land that was just cleaned up a few days ago. Now you have to clean up again. . It’s freezing right now, so what are you going to pack? I toss about this piece of land every day, and there is still not much food for a year, and we can’t let our stomachs eat.

Look at what those people are doing slowly, is it weeding or playing?The uncle captain is also true, all the families are assigned to do their own work, and the speed is fast.In this way, regardless of the speed, the work points are the same, who wants to work hard."

Huang Cuilan was afraid that she would talk too much. The person next to her heard the complaint, saying that her family was not satisfied with the captain.She winked at her. She usually followed her younger siblings when she left work, fearing that she would not be able to keep her mouth shut and would easily offend others.She is very carefree, she doesn't take it to heart, others can count on it.

The leaf nearby looked at them enviously, and slowly moved towards them, weeding along that side.

Not far away, he said to Lin Juhua, "'Juhua, your guests are gone? I think the two cars drove away yesterday. What did your sister-in-law and wife's family bring here? Look at the excitement of your house yesterday. There are a lot of people."

"Jiaojiao's mother hasn't left yet. She will stay for a few days. Her grandfather has a task to leave. Yesterday Xizi followed them to the provincial capital. This is why my sister-in-law would not worry about looking at the village entrance. I said, she didn't come back so soon. How can my grandma take Xizi to visit the provincial capital? She will drive and not be in a hurry. She always comes back in the afternoon." Lin Juhua also quietly moved to the edge of the leaves.She didn't even think that no one was speaking, and it was finally a bit of a chatter.

Ye Ye's eyes widened, "This old lady is really good, and she can drive by herself. This capital is different. I heard that the thief is pretty and young, so she didn't find anyone. Jiaojiao and her mother came, so she didn't find anyone. Zhou's settlement?

The bastard in my natal village was removed.

"Why are you looking for the Zhou family, they are not those who bully others, they are the same as our ordinary people. There is no such thing as a city person who looks down upon our rural people. Grandpa Jiaojiao, such a high-ranking official, behaved, and I have a chat with my father-in-law. Her grandma too Go to the kitchen to help with us.

It's not like those dramatists who have a good eye and a low hand, who are consciously superior.It's okay for my Xiaowu. The old man was also happy to see him. If he didn't come here for a meeting and said he would take Xiaowu to see his old friend, he took Xiaowu away yesterday.Xizi will come back today first from the provincial capital where Xizi went with Xiaowu's mother-in-law.Xiao Wu will spend a few days with the old man in the army."Lin Juhua is happy to see the envy in the eyes of others.

Ye Zi looked around, then lowered her voice and asked her quietly, "Will Xiao Wu directly serve as a soldier in the army? Your Xiao Wu is really fate. You didn't join the army last year. The village said it was a pity, not now. Did you have a chance to go to the army again? There is a Jiaojiao grandpa, and no one is bullied by that army. But Juhua, her family didn't say to take them back to the capital."

Lin Juhua gave her a wink and asked her to put down her hoe, squatted to pull the weeds like her, and whispered, "Why not, I just want the child to return to the capital with a full moon.

Jiaojiao owns a large yard in the capital, and her household registration is in the capital.This time I learned that her mother had bought a house for her since she was born.My Xiaowu said that he didn't go to the capital at the moment, so he would have to wait a few years before he said it. He couldn't bear his hometown and didn't know what he thought.If we definitely want to go back, it would be nice to be a capitalist, but we didn't say anything.Whatever their husband and wife want, they may have their own ideas.

Xiao Wu wouldn't be a soldier, it would have been that time.What I heard with my own ears, it's a pity for his grandfather, Xiaowu is strong enough to eat that bite of rice.Isn't it just that the old man is here for a meeting?This time the old man took him over to meet his old friends, old men,

This person is really incomparable. I never thought that Jiaojiao was pampering Jiaojiao so much. You didn't see it. The two mothers and daughters were muttering, but they were affectionate. I always thought her mother didn't treat her sincerely."

Ye Zi sighed: "We don't compare with others. We talk about everyone being equal. I went to the city to show us the people in the city. If you don't say this, it will be a bad thing to be heard. Jiaojiao can be regarded as suffering. She is in her early days, but why is she so powerful?

Now the old ladies in the village say that there are two tigresses in your family. Your eldest sister is married back to the city. Now Jiaojiao married your family, who would dare to offend your family?This time I slapped a lot of people, and the captain of Zhoujiacun is still locked up. In the past few days, his house has been looking for help from people and dare not go to your house. It is probably Grandpa Jiaojiao."

Lin Juhua laughed out loud and said in a low voice; "What's so amazing, Jiaojiao has a soft temper, and she is also annoyed by being scolded at the door. Otherwise, because of her temperament, she really won't be able to turn the old calendar. I dare not offend it. As for our family, our family is not unreasonable. My parents-in-law are not that kind of person."

Ye Zibai glanced at her, rubbed her shoulder, winked at her and said, "Are you unhappy when you say something? We don't know who, your parents-in-law are kind and honest, your little brother and sister are really temperamental. Soft? Those old ladies all murmured that cultural people are different. It's no wonder that those who come out with a pen can kill with a pen with their mouth, and if you are not allowed to call injustice, they will be directly convicted of death.

It is said that your elder sister is not as good as your younger sibling.I said before that Jiaojiao looked sick, and she didn't have the energy to work. Fortunately, she was subsidized by her family. Otherwise, compared with the little daughter-in-law in the village, those old ladies and little daughters who had to starve to death are now beating themselves.

It seems that Xiaowu in your family has the foresight, and it is impossible for her to stay in the village often, with a sharp tongue.Everyone said that they were wrong.

Meili didn't go to work in the past two days, do you know?She said that this was a big deal, and she was embarrassed to see you. If she didn't talk quickly, she wouldn't let the dead woman go to your house.But ah, I think she is happy in her heart. After so many years, her hatred has finally been paid, and she is finally out of breath."

Lin Juhua took a look at the Captain's uncle who had come here and hurriedly returned to her: "Hehe, what am I down to. I will go and see the beauty when I finish work. It's not her fault. Can I blame her? I said it, can she tell her, and I didn’t make it up. The captain is here, we don’t talk anymore.” After speaking, the two separated soon, each bowed their heads and pulled the grass to see how they cooperated. Not young and old.

Huang Cuilan looked amused, she said that her second child is very slick, gossiping and lively, without delay in getting work points.She couldn't do it. She worried for her several times, and her heart was throbbing.

The weather is getting colder, and now the male laborers going back and forth, except for pulling manure and fertilizing, are all working around. There is no way to rush to clean up the fields before it freezes.Maybe next year we can plant seeds in the spring of next year, and we can arrange more food, so we can distribute more rations.

The old farmer has nothing to look forward to, so he hopes to have a bumper harvest next year. The family will have enough food, more money to buy things, and save some money to marry a good wife for his son and grandson.If you are unlucky, a year of farming will be done in vain in the dry season, but if you don’t work, you will confiscate the grain. You can only rely on the heaven and earth to live and look forward to.

There was only one cow and two donkeys in the brigade. They were all treasures of the whole village. No one dared to say that they used cows to plow the land.

As for living in the ground?I did it manually, and I couldn't finish it with strength. I took great effort and came back the next day after the rest. Who is responsible for the tired cow?Didn’t you see the bullock carts used in the upper town that came out of the village?In the village, marrying a new daughter-in-law or marrying a daughter-in-law must be exhausted?

Zhang Dad took his second child Zhang Guoqiang, and the two father and son cooperated to pull the iron plow.Every time I plow the ground, I’m so tired that I can’t even taste the food when I go home.It's also that Zhang's father and son are sincere. Look at the people next to them who are working on foreign workers.They all plowed back and forth twice, and some people were on the halfway, stopping from time to time, and the villagers who picked up the grass roots were also happy to take their time.It’s not that everyone cares about gains and losses. Many people don’t have enough rations, so they drink sip of water work in the morning. This will be more than just enough.

The second child, Zhang Guoqiang, is a traitor. He knows that his dad is working hard in the field. If his elder brother is with his dad today, it is estimated that he will go to help others after this film is done.Every time he did heavy work, he offered to follow his father, and he could still watch.

His father didn't want to think, you are so fast, many people are working hard, and you can't blame you when you see it, you just love it.You can't get good words with great efforts.He kept staring at his dad, faster than others, so he let his dad rest, smoke and drink, by the way, he took it and slowly plowed the ground.

Father Zhang stopped, took a sigh of relief, looked at the long two lanes he had ploughed, nodded in satisfaction, and then looked at the side, there was no half lane, frowned and didn't speak, it doesn’t matter. Other things.He just can't look at ruining the land, so they don't want to think about it. If the land is turned over now, the crops will be harvested next year.Waiting for the next year's harvest to be less, everyone is not at a loss together, there are so many things in this field, and less is not everyone's share.

Zhang Guoqiang took out the kettle and poured a bowl of water to his father. He also took the opportunity to rest, and followed his father, but he was exhausted.No wonder no one teamed up with his dad when the farmer was busy, and there were many males in his uncle's family, who accompany his dad and his family foolishly, and I don't know if the uncle secretly scolded his dad in his heart.

Sighing, Xiao Wu didn't work at home, just different, that strength was the best.I don't know how this silly boy follows the old man in the army, but don't rush into the army.

Being a soldier is a good thing for others, but Xiao Wu doesn't have to work hard, he has a lot of money in his hands, and his mother-in-law is subsidized, as long as he goes to the city to find a job.I also hope that there won't be any trouble in the army, but that really makes him really worried, and I didn't have time to give a few secret tips yesterday.

Zhang Guoqiang looked at his father and couldn't help muttering, "Father, you said Xiao Wu would not go there and be a soldier? I don't want to have more martyrs at home. You must put out his thoughts when you look back."

Father Zhang glanced at him contemptuously. Isn't he usually clever?"No, definitely not a soldier. I'm going to go early. He doesn't worry that his little wife will take his son alone. Yesterday he called your mother to take care of his son, saying that he was afraid that his mother-in-law and Jiaojiao would sleep to death. I couldn't wake them even crying, so your mother specially asked your mother to look at his son and wait for him to come back. Do you think this mother-in-law's temperament will serve as a soldier?

Zhang Guoqiang looked at his father amusedly, but he did not believe that his father was not worried. "Little Wu likes children. Look at the younger ones in the family and see that his uncle is closer than my relative father. That is his son, but Don’t be afraid that other people’s tricks are bad. Dad, Xiaowu’s temperament is up to you, haha, my mother said."

"You stinky boy, you're going against the sky? This means that your father is also a mother-in-law. Your father and me, you are a real man, not like Xiao Wu. In my opinion, it is your mother who raised Xiao Wu as a girl. Yes. By the way, what are your plans for the yard? You listened to Xiaowu. If you go back to the county seat, there will be no one. Or let's build a simple three or five rooms?"

Zhang Guoqiang shook his head, "It's like the thatched house in the village? No, just build it like that. I don't care about Xiaowu and I don't spend much. Besides, this is my hometown, not far from the county seat. You and your mother are here. , I have to come back to live often. I went back to the county seat, and I must have no money to buy a house. I rented a small room and got frustrated, so I came back to live. There is still time for vacation, the house will not be vacant, and there will be more children in the future. You can also grow coarse grains and vegetables in the backyard, just rely on the supply in the city."

Father Zhang nodded: "It's also right to think so. A green onion in the city costs money. You plant it, and your mother and I will take care of it. There will be a lot of things in one year. You make arrangements, and your wife will work. If there is no arrangement, you can take care of the family.

When the work is finished, I will talk to the team leader uncle about building the yard, and by the way, I will find someone to rock the stone. I have to tell him this in advance.Otherwise, the village ran to help our family, and he had to rearrange the work in the field.Our family won't go to work anymore, just because there is not much work in the slack farm.Your mother and your wife have to prepare food."

"I have found the stone slayers. They will go tomorrow and have agreed with Grandpa San. I have not started work for these two days. I have arranged the beams in the two yards. Apart from the house, I will also I borrowed it, I didn't buy it, so I just waited some time to cut it back with Xiaowu and return it to others.

I ordered the tiles, and there are some choppy things.Dad, there is nothing to order.Just wait for the foundation to be laid tomorrow, the two foundations of our three brothers have been almost cleaned up, and we will wait for the big mud and hold the big billet. When the stone is delivered, we can build a house.I have calculated the time, and the two courtyards will be built together. Tomorrow, I will work hard with the big mud and support the big pieces. They are all ready to make a mess and get some meat dishes. Nothing else."

There are "four major fatigues" in rural areas: mixing mud, holding a large billet, pulling a large plow, etc., among which "he big mud" is to add the clay to the "foot of the seedling" (to increase the firmness and make it not fragile fiber, such as Grass, hemp and other floccules), mixed with water to form a viscous mud, the more it is and the more viscous, the more viscous and the more tiring; holding the big billet is to pour the mixed mud into the billet mold, squeeze it into shape, and dry it. It becomes an adobe like a brick wall.These things are all tiring work, and you have to pick up a layer of skin after strong labor!

The Zhang family wanted to build the same old courtyard this time, but it was really difficult.The man in his family is the main force and mud, and he has to prepare some soil embryos. The two yards are estimated to be exhausting.

Dad Zhang nodded, it's all arranged, and I will start to cover it early tomorrow.A few brothers and some nephews.Let the bricklayer bring more people, how can it take ten and a half days to build it.When the ground freezes and snows, slowly clean up the furniture in the house.In the coming year, they can move in separately, and the old couple is considered to have completed the big thing.

"You talk to your master, and prepare the doors and windows. Don't pick up other people's work for now. There is a lot of carpentry work in Xiaowu's yard. You still have to buy wood. If you don't wait, let's do it first. "Daddy Zhang started to pull up the iron plow again after speaking.
