Song Hongguo didn't really trust the system's guarantee, but she didn't get to the bottom of it at the moment. After all, the mall hadn't been upgraded yet, let alone the live broadcast of goods. She would think about it later when it got to that point.
The next day, Song Hongguo also woke up very early. To be precise, she had never slept in since she moved to Tomato Brigade. She woke up at five o'clock every day and went to bed around nine o'clock in the evening. She truly worked at sunrise.
, and rested after sunset. It’s not that she has become more diligent, but that there are no entertainment programs these days. What are you doing if you don’t sleep at night? If you go to bed early, you will naturally get up early, not to mention that you have two sons who like to work.
.
The two little guys are really hard-working and capable. One of them takes care of the pigs, chickens and geese at home, and they are starting to gain weight. They also go for a walk in the private plot every day, and see some wheatgrass.
Or other weeds were easily pulled back. The other one was keen on doing housework, not only cleaning the main house and the east and west bungalows, but also learned to arrange flowers from her. Now they are on the desk in the bedroom, on the window sill of the hall, in the kitchen.
Inside and on the dining table, there are jars of flower branches. The peach blossoms and winter jasmine blend together, creating a unique flavor.
Song Hongguo is becoming more and more satisfied with her current life, which is not much different from her ideal life. After washing, she is busy cooking. The carrot cake she made today is a dish she just remembered and had eaten in her previous life.
, it’s rare for me to think that radish can become delicious. In fact, she thinks radish croquettes are the most delicious, but it consumes too much fuel, so she has to give them up.
The radish cake she makes is a home-style recipe. She first cuts the radish into thin strips and soaks it in hot water for a while to remove the spiciness from the radish. She also cuts some bacon into cubes, stir-fries until the oil is released, and grabs a handful of shrimp skin.
Then add water to the radish, adjust the flavor, and finally add half a scoop of rice flour, stir it into a ball, and then steam it in the pot.
After steaming, you can cut it into pieces directly, but she prefers to fry it again. Although it is time-consuming, it tastes better that way. The two sides are browned and the middle is soft and waxy. Her least favorite radish instantly becomes her favorite.
The two little guys also liked it very much, but they both regretted buying too few radishes.
When Xu Jiashu came, Song Hongguo handed him a few dollars. He didn't refuse in vain or said any words of gratitude, but he worked even harder after that.
To build a fence, you must first prepare wooden strips. After Song Hongguo came to the village, she had not gone up the mountain except to pick up stones on the river beach. Today she had a chance. The old house was at the foot of the mountain. It was very convenient to enter the mountain.
, along the small stream in the center of the village, you will arrive at Hongye Valley. On both sides of Hongye Valley are high mountains, stretching for more than ten miles.
Nowadays, there are naturally no red leaves in Hongye Valley, and the cotinus trees are still bare. Not only are the trees bare, but there is no green color at all under the feet. Any wild vegetables that pop up are picked up by the children in the village and taken back to their homes.
Ling Zhi held the small shovel and was very disappointed.
Seeing this, Song Hongguo casually said with relief, "When I'm free, I'll lead you deeper, and maybe you'll be able to find it."
Ling Yuan asked worriedly, "Are there wolves in the mountains?"
Song Hongguo said uncertainly, "There shouldn't be, right? I haven't heard that there are wolves in our area..."
Xu Jiashu was busy chopping branches. When he heard this, he added, "There are no wolves, but there are wild boars. Wild boars are more ferocious than wolves. Even two or three strong laborers may not be able to control them."
After saying that, he thought of something and reminded him, "In a few days, the people in the army will go into the mountains for training. Maybe the wild boars will be frightened and break into the village. Then you have to be more careful."
Ling Yuan's eyes widened when he heard this, "Is there such a thing? Isn't that very dangerous?"
Their home is at the foot of the mountain, so they bear the brunt.
Xu Jiashu scratched his head and said, "Anyway, this kind of thing has happened before. I have heard about it, but it may not be accurate. Why don't you ask the villagers to find out more."
Song Hongguo is concerned about, "Why do the troops come up to the mountains to train?"
Xu Jiashu said, "It seems like it's target practice. How about frightening the wild boar?"
Song Hongguo asked again, "Is it the army stationed here in our commune?"
Because there are aluminum mines in the local area and iron mines in the county not far away, a troop was stationed here. It was still there when she traveled through time. There were still quite a few people, and they seemed to be a regiment.
"Yes, that's them." Boys all aspire to be soldiers, so when he said this, not only Xu Jiashu looked envious, but even Ling Zhi's face showed a bit of desire.
Seeing this, Song Hongguo took advantage of Xu Jiashu to go far away and asked Ling Zhi, "Do you want to be a soldier?"
Ling Zhi was shocked and asked subconsciously, "Can I?"
Song Hongguo muttered, "If you really want to, I can help you find a way when you are old, but you have to think carefully. Being a soldier is very hard..."
Ling Zhi said eagerly, "I'm not afraid of hard work."
Song Hongguo added, "There is still a certain danger. After all, if you become a soldier, you have to obey orders. No one knows what will happen in the future. When you are needed, you can't back down."
"Then I'm not afraid either!"
He spoke very resolutely and seriously. It was obvious that he was not impulsive or passionate. Song Hongguo's tone was also more solemn, "Do you really want to take that path?"
Ling Zhi nodded vigorously, "For me, that is the best way out."
Song Hongguo's heart moved. She originally thought that both brothers liked to study and could make a difference in the future by going to school. However, she forgot that in a few years, the college entrance examination will be cancelled. What else can they do? Either farm at home or
Needless to say, entering a factory and farming, you are tired and there is no future. As for joining a factory as a worker, although you are paid, you have to start from the bottom with no education or skills, and the future is equally slim. In comparison, being a soldier
It's indeed a good way out.
She also knew that in the countryside, being able to join the army and serve as a soldier was a good way to grab a head start, but she had not considered it before. It seemed that she would have to pay more attention to this aspect in the future.
At this time, the luster in Ling Zhi's eyes suddenly dimmed again, "I mean, with my status..."
Song Hongguo interrupted him, "I will go to work in a few days. After I go to work, your household registration will be left in the hospital with me. From now on, you will be urban residents, eat food, and want to be a soldier...it all depends on people."
After she finished speaking, she patted his shoulder, turned around and continued working, giving him time to digest.
Ling Zhi was silent all the way.
After arriving home, Song Hongguo was busy building fences. Xu Jiashu was the main force, responsible for the physical work, cutting branches of the same length and burying them in the soil. Starting from the gate, the two sides of the main road were fenced, extending to both ends of the pond.
Circle two arcs, with roses, thorn roses, and pomegranate trees in them, and the vacant land is reserved for growing vegetables.
There is also a circle around the two peonies. This is to be landscaped in the future, so the fence is more for decoration, and the inversion is more careful. The fence is directly made of thin branches, 30 centimeters high, and will be used inside later.
It doesn't matter if you plant flowers or anything else.
The fence surrounding the backyard is one meter high, and the enclosed area is large and square. There is also a well inside. It is surrounded by fruit trees, leaving only a one-meter-wide path. Near the main house, there are osmanthus trees.
