Chapter 277 That Year (6)

That year and month 6

As soon as the rain came, the water in the big river rose and filled the small river. Even the ditches with water at the entrance of the village were filled with water.

The grass nests are not deep, half a meter tall enough to reach the sky.

They all rolled up their trousers. Lin Yutong was a little uncomfortable with this. She had to look for it in the ditch on the edge.

"Master, I'll help you." A simple girl next to her, wearing a flower jacket and black pants, smiled at Lin Yutong.

Lin Yutong was stunned, "You are that Li..."

"My name is Li Guofang." The girl rolled up her trouser legs and walked two steps inside.

"Just call me Yutong. If you have time, go over and I will teach you. Don't be so polite." Lin Yutong quickly agreed with a smile. Don't underestimate the production team leader. Arrange people to work every day, and the importance of this has to be considered.

"Hey!" Li Guofang responded shyly. Uncle Wu said, this little master is very good at medical skills. Even if he learns to cure colds and stomachache, he can be a sanitary staff. He doesn't have to go to work in the fields and earns more work points. Just as his elder brother said, looking for connections, it's not impossible to work in a large hospital in the county. When he arrives in the county, he is a city man. He will be a businessman for the rest of his life. He must not be more careful. Seeing that he has no airs, she has to be more respectful.

This grass beach is not small, and no one is competing for it.

Those female educated youth surrounded several local young men, saying that they were helping, but in fact they were showing their attentiveness.

Lin Yutong strung the long fish with vines and put them aside, then used a gourd ladle to scoop the small fish that no one wanted, grate out of water, slowly took two basins, and planned to send them back.

Li Guofang helped Lin Yutong take a basin, and when he was together, he was stunned.

Lin Yutong followed Li Guofang's gaze and found that Ge Hongbing and Tang Tang were fishing in the same puddle. The two were flirting with each other and they saw a couple.

She glanced at Li Guofang again. The girl's eyes were too obvious. She knew that she was interested in Ge Hongbing at first glance.

It seemed as if he had noticed the sight here, and Ge Hongbing and Tang Tang both looked here.

Lin Yutong didn't avoid them, and smiled calmly, "Do you have too many fish? They are all small here. They can only grill dried fish."

Ge Hongbing didn't show any strangeness, he laughed: "Why don't you see that boy Yin Zhen? Don't go deeper by yourself."

Lin Yutong responded, but did not say where the Fourth Master was going.

He returned to the yard with two pots of fish. Professor Cheng's wife, Teacher Feng, was sweeping the yard. Lin Yutong said in a daze: "Aunt Feng, please help me with this little fish. I'll get some more. We'll dry it in the evening, put it away and put it until next spring."

Teacher Feng was worn in old clothes, but clean and tidy, and his head was meticulous. She had heard Lao Cheng say just now, and knew that the children living in the yard seemed to be not opposed to them. So she was not surprised. She pointed to a stone trough in the yard. This should be feeding horses for fodder. Now there are not so many horses, so one is empty. It has been washed. "Pour in. I will pack it up later." Just use scissors to cut open my stomach and clean up the dirt. It's no trouble. But the young man doesn't have such patience.

Seeing that the other person had no cold face, Lin Yutong responded with a smile, poured it in and rushed back immediately with an empty basin.

Li Guofang was not slow at work, but she was not in high spirits. The young girl had a crush on something and felt very sad.

After a busy day, Teacher Feng had two barrels of fish cleaned up.

When the Fourth Master came back, Lin Yutong was carrying a big firewood in the pot and the small fish were there. The whole room was filled with fishy smell.

"Ouch! You can really make trouble." The Fourth Master frowned. He would rather not eat than try this.

What can Lin Yutong do? If you can’t have a small stove, you can’t eat water and cook every meal.

"Go inside and wash it, it will be fine in a while." Lin Yutong looked at the dried fish in the basket, thinking that if she put it together with pepper and ham and steamed it in a bowl, it would be very good to eat.

After the Fourth Master washed up, Lin Yutong put all the rice into the pot and steamed a bowl of fish on it. Then he made a bowl of eggs in the pot.

He divided the dried fish in half again, "Why don't you send it to the front house? I'll help you today."

The Fourth Master was about to talk to someone, so he took it and went there.

The Fourth Master came back only after Lin Yutong put all the food on the table.

White rice, steamed small fish, scrambled eggs, and a seaweed soup.

"There are no such dishes in state-owned hotels." The Fourth Master said while eating.

"Have you had dinner in a state-owned hotel today?" Lin Yutong asked.

"Where are there any restaurants except state-owned hotels?" The Fourth Master smiled and said, "There are only steamed buns with three-fold noodles, and there are noodles for noodles. Some fried vegetables. There are no meat and vegetables, so the meat is not available at all. It is said that today their hotel has a pig's trotter and a pig's tail, and it was bought by the leader."

"What did you eat in the end?" Lin Yutong asked by putting the eggs into the Fourth Master's bowl.

"One person has one bowl of noodles." The Fourth Master sighed, "That's it, Wu Chunlai said that this is the first time he has eaten fine grains in two years."

"There are plenty of melons and vegetables now, and it will be even harder to bear in winter." Lin Yutong sighed, "In two days, the feet will be able to get down here, and it will not be so muddy. I guess the corn, sorghum, and soybeans will have to be harvested. Have the parts been found?" If not, I have to go to the fields to work.

"Finished." The Fourth Master whispered: "The closest to us is from the 5th Company of the Third Regiment. I have agreed to get them some oil and fine grains and exchange them for some national food coupons."

"The main thing is food coupons, which work better than money." Lin Yutong then breathed a sigh of relief. They were not short of food, but it was inconvenient to do something else. They also had to have hard currency in circulation. "What do you say to others? Don't reveal the stuff?"

"Don't worry about this. When did you miss it?" The Fourth Master pushed the bowl. What kind of noodles are there in the taste of noodles today. When did you feel that eating a large bowl of rice has become a pleasure?

The next morning, the bell rang on the big tree at the entrance of the village. This was about to start work.

The Fourth Master went to the yard of the team to repair the car, and Lin Yutong rushed to the entrance of the village. Then he found a group of educated youth and stood behind.

"Where is Yin Zhen?" Ge Hongbing asked.

Lin Yutong couldn't pretend not to know, "Secretary Wu had something to ask him for, it seemed like he was going to repair the car."

Ge Hongbing nodded, and as long as he was not absent from work, he would not ask.

After the surviving, Lin Yutong was left on the field to peel the corn on the cob. Other educated youth went to the field to break the sticks.

"Why?" Yang Liu whispered, "Why is she doing the lightest work just like those aunts?"

Lin Yutong pursed her lips and didn't speak. She really couldn't do anything, so she might as well do something within her ability. She knew her own affairs, so she wouldn't take the initiative to pretend to be active.

Li Zhong was a burly and strong man, and immediately scolded: "What are you shouting? What are you shouting? He just came and didn't know anything. He pointed at her and went to the field to do what she could do. She could do this job. Before other members could speak, you educated youth started to make trouble first. Why are you so ignorant?"

Yang Liu is a tall and thin girl, weak, but very powerful. She looked at Lin Yutong and snorted coldly, "How many centimeters will the captain give me?"

An adult male laborer is ten centimeters a day, while most women are nine centimeters. Some of them are good at work, which earns about the same amount as a man. But these girls are eight centimeters.

Captain Li smiled and said, "Then give it seven centimeters." With the subsidy from the health staff at the end of the year, it can also catch up to ten centimeters.

Lin Yutong nodded at Captain Li in understanding.

Yang Liu then 's hummed', "This is almost the same."

After a while, the corn cob was transported back 66 times. The handheld tractor had been repaired, and now Wu Chun was driving. Lin Yutong looked up and saw the Fourth Master sitting on the shaft of the carriage.

He is not tired of his life.

Lin Yutong still threw over a pair of brand new white-line gloves and "bring with them."

The remaining male laborers were each one with a cart, and they were pulled to the big field. Compared with this, driving a cart is not a job at all. The only thing they had to do was to unload the corn from the cob. But there were many women in their forties and fifties in this big field, and they were unloaded by one person. It was better to ask the cart to run twice more than anything else.

"How did that kid get involved?" Wang Liming asked Ge Hongbing.

Ge Hongbing lifted up the hem of his clothes and wiped his sweat, "Who knows? When they are leaving, you can leave a few more words, and you will also take advantage of it. Now there is a useless attitude." He couldn't stand Wang Liming, a person who is incompetent and has a stingy heart.

Yesterday, the captain's girl helped Lin Yutong catch fish, and he guessed that the two of them must have left some relationship. But so what? Many educated youth with strong relationships have recruited workers and returned to the city.

Although peeling corn is the lightest job, after a day, my shoulders, arms, and even my fingers are hurt.

"I still can't be in the production team." The Fourth Master pinched Lin Yutong's shoulders, "The health worker in the production team is not called a health worker." He still has to work during the busy farming season.

"I want to go to the Corps?" Lin Yutong asked.

The Fourth Master nodded: "This requires a chance. Don't worry, at most, you can last for half a year. I will find a way to stop asking you to do rough work anymore." He thought in his mind that if you do this autumn, you will not have to live in winter. After the New Year, before the beginning of spring, you can always plan.

After all, there is no room for improvement in the lineup. After ten years of working, he is still a farmer. But the corps will be different. This country will not always be like this, but how long will it last? Who knows? He is not an official fan. People who have been emperors will not be obsessed with any official positions, but they cannot ask women to suffer. Besides, what should I do if I get married and have children in the future? Is it still sluggish in this palm-sized place? This is absolutely not possible!
