There is Room for Rebirth in the 1950’s

Chapter 405: Spring Drought

If someone said before Zhou Jiao that there was a spring drought in the northeast.

She must despise the other's IQ.

The large areas of snow in the northeastern region in spring and rivers can be seen everywhere.Are these furnishings?

Now she is ashamed of her ignorance.

In Zhou Jiao's imagination, there are major floods, avalanches, and mudslides in the northeast, and droughts are not easy to occur.But reality taught her a lesson.

After the New Year, time flies by.As the weather gets warmer and the snow cover decreases, spring farming has become everyone's hope.No matter how tired you are, as long as you think of the joy of harvest, what is shoveling the earth?

After two autumn rains last year, it never rained, and the old captain was so worried that he kept his long pipe.In particular, I heard that the pass has been drought.He walked around the river bank up and down every day.

Zhou Jiao's heart tightened as soon as it appeared in the newspaper where there was a lack of rain.The only consolation is that the water well in the home is only low, it is still clear and sweet water.

No one in the county pays special attention to the farmers' harvest, and no one notices that the surrounding villages have planned to significantly reduce the area of ​​rice planting this year.

Zhou Jiao took her son and stood in line at the intersection.The small four cubes of tofu made everyone smile.Huang Juan in front of her sighed in a low voice that she could finally eat fish head tofu soup at night.

Zhou Jiao understood her excitement.Since the beginning of the first lunar month, I have never seen soybeans in the food book again, and no one has eaten tofu in the past few months. Why are you unhappy?

She squatted down and picked up her son, and looked at his smile.I have to say that I am really a blessed person.She couldn't imagine, if there was no space, how would the family live?

Carrying a small piece of tofu he bought, Zhou Jiao followed Huang Juan and walked slowly home.

"Jiaojiao, when will your parents-in-law be back this time?"

"They don't worry about Xizi, they should be back in two days. Aunt Juan is looking for something to do with them?"

Huang Juan smiled and shook her head, "Nothing. I just want to know where there are so many wild vegetables, so I plan to dig some without going to work. Your mother-in-law has experience, you can't."

Zhou Jiao laughed dumbly.She really couldn't. When she went back to the village a few days ago, she didn't see a wild vegetable around.She knew there were a lot of mountains, but she didn't dare to go without Zhang Guoqing by her side.

"When she comes over, I will tell her. The wild vegetables will grow quickly after a while, so I don't worry about not being able to dig them."

Huang Juan nodded, amused in her heart.The child thought that the wild vegetables were waiting there to grow up and let them pick them. They would be gone after a while.

Huang Juan turned around and left before entering the door, but Zhao Yuanyuan ran over on her car.

Zhou Jiao looked at her curiously.

"Go in first. I'm dying of thirst." After saying that, Zhao Yuanyuan had already pushed the car into the yard.

In the living room, Zhou Jiao put down Ping An and let him play by himself.She waited until Zhao Yuanyuan filled two bowls of water before seeing her speak.

"They organize a field outing, let me come over and inform you."

Zhou Jiao shook her head, "Xiao Wu still has to go to work, I'm not going."

Zhao Yuanyuan stomped her feet and pointed her anxiously, "You can't say where you are going before you ask, are you lacking sincerity? What kind of work do you have on the small five weekend? You have to go if you don't go this time!"

Ping An interjected unwillingly, "I want to go too."

"Good job, baby! Auntie takes you to see the world."

Zhou Jiao smiled and shook her head, "It's not suitable for an outing now. I'll wait until the summer."

"You don't come here. I guess your family will return to the capital in the summer. Baby, do you want to go?"

Ping An looked at her, "I listen to my mother. Aunty, haven't you said where to go?"

Zhou Jiao laughed at the words.Indeed, it was a lot of nonsense.

Zhao Yuanyuan stretched out her hand to squeeze safety, but was interrupted by him, not angry, she said happily: "Go to the reservoir, where can I catch fish, how about grilled fish for you?"

Ping An didn't have to wait for Zhou Jiao to answer, "No." After that, he turned and ran to play with toys.

Seeing that she was going to pester the child, Zhou Jiao hurriedly held her, "We really don't plan to go there. My godmother and his family will come over this weekend. I have to wait for them at home."

Zhao Yuanyuan gave her a fierce look.

After finishing talking, I thought about it and sighed, "I thought I could go out and relax."

Zhou Jiao frowned upon hearing this, "What happened?"

Zhao Yuanyuan pretended to be ignorant, her eyes did not dare to look at her, "What happened? I have something to do. Tian Nuan wants to walk around."

Seeing that she didn't want to say anything, Zhou Jiao didn't ask again.Everyone has privacy, and she doesn't like to get to the bottom.Besides, Zhao Yuanyuan has nothing to worry about besides the girl's worries.

After a few chattering words, Zhou Jiaola couldn't help it when she was about to eat lunch, and Zhao Yuanyuan hurried away again.There was a gust of wind coming and going, and Zhou Jiao shook his head even after seeing Ping An.

Zhang Guoqing went home for dinner at noon, but mentioned some information.

Zhao Dashan's hometown urged him to send grain.

With Zhao Yuanyuan added, what else is unclear.It seems that Zhao Dashan and his wife do not agree, and there are internal conflicts.

Zhang Guoqing looked at Zhou Jiao worriedly.He was really afraid that his daughter-in-law felt that he owed Zhao Dashan's favor and felt surplus, so he stupidly went to help Zhao Dashan's family.

Zhou Jiao looked at him speechlessly.Need such obvious disclosure?It's not that I am confused.Since Zhao Dashan has surplus, send it. He has no rations in his hometown. What does it have to do with him?

"Do you think I am the Virgin Mary?"

Zhang Guoqing laughed straight after hearing the words-just have this consciousness.

The couple hugged their son and joked.Unexpectedly, the Virgin came over.

"Jiaojiao, how about eating these wild vegetables first. If you like to eat them, I'll dig some for you in a few days. Don't go out into the wild with others yourself. It's still small and it's not safe in the wild. Remember. Live now?"

Zhou Jiao looked at Zhang Guoqing with a headache while looking at the basket of wild vegetables that Zhang Meili sent over.Come on, take a look at your eldest Virgin Mary.

Zhang Guoqing looked at the neatly cleaned up fresh wild vegetables in the basket, and couldn't help but smile: "Sister, don't you leave yourself too old and scumbag, right?"

Zhang Meili shook her head triumphantly, "This time I found a good place. Your second sister and I dug a lot, enough for the three of us to eat. I will look for it when I'm not working."

Zhang Guoqing was ashamed.

"Sister, don't look for it. Waiting for the weekend, I will take a trip to the mountain. You can have as many as you want, and you can order food as you like. You have to dig wild vegetables every day at work.

Zhou Jiao immediately said afterwards: "Yes. Sister, you can take a good rest without going to work. Don't pay attention to taking care of yourself. If your young body loses too much, you won't be able to raise it when you are old."

Zhang Meili is reluctant to talk to the two children.Going on, she doesn't have to work anymore.People live in the world when they are young, but when they are old, they can't move.I still want to do a few more years to save money for the children.

"I'm leaving. Don't go up the mountain if it's okay, it's dangerous in the mountains. Tell me what wild vegetables you want to eat, you just need to bring your kids. Don't go up the mountain if it's okay, right?"

Seeing that she was about to leave, he stepped on her calf, pulled her, and blinked her big eyes, "Auntie, you bow your head."

Zhang Meili just wanted to pick him up, and squatted down after hearing this.Unexpectedly, the child put a toffee into his mouth.Excited, she picked up the child and laughed happily.

Zhang Guoqing and Zhou Jiao smiled at each other. No wonder that children’s hearts are the brightest and purest.
