Even though Li Dahe had 10,000 disbeliefs in his heart, Wang Xiaozhao still gave the village a small batch of ten tons of coal, regardless of delivery.
Li Dahe took the approval slip and thought about it for a long time, then suddenly looked at Lin Nianhe: "Girl, did Wang Xiaozhao kill someone while you watched?"
Lin Nianhe: "..."
She pressed her forehead, pointed to the approval slip and said, "Uncle Captain, even if we don't care about the principal, the village primary school still has five classrooms. How can these ten tons of coal be enough?"
Ten tons of coal are not enough to burn for three months.
Li Dahe carefully put away the approval slip and said, "What are the conditions? Do you dare to burn all coal? You have to ask the students to bring firewood."
Li Dahe felt that having it was better than not having it. Based on his understanding of Wang Xiaoxi, these ten tons of coal would make him feel distressed for three months.
In other words, Lin Nianhe has a lot of face. If anyone else had said this, he would have kicked him two miles away.
Li Dahe held the approval note hidden in his chest and said, "We will go and get the coal after they have handed over all the food, otherwise we will have to explain it eight hundred times."
The Shili Brigade was the first group to hand over the grain, and there were several other brigades behind that had not yet handed over the grain. Therefore, the road to the town would still be blocked for several days.
Lin Nianhe had no objection to this. She stood there with the sack, waiting for instructions.
Li Dahe: "What are you doing standing around? Bring the bag, I don't need any more food!"
Lin Nianhe had long been accustomed to getting sprayed for everything he did, so he handed the two sacks to the squad leader.
Accountant Zhao happily counted the work points, and then said: "One hundred and seventy pounds." After that, he pushed the score book to Lin Nianhe and motioned for her to sign.
Lin Nianhe only came here in mid-May. He was able to get these grains mainly because he had ten work points a day after becoming a teacher. Otherwise...
The squad leader handed the two full sacks directly to Su Yuncheng who was waiting aside, completely ignoring Lin Nianhe.
Su Yuncheng carried one in each hand without any pressure and said to Lin Nianhe, "Let's go."
Lin Nianhe happily waved goodbye to everyone and followed Su Yuncheng outside.
She put her little hands behind her back and said with a smile: "It's all the food I got from my labor. I've ground cornmeal for you to eat."
Su Yuncheng smiled and nodded: "Okay."
"Take some back and give it to my parents to try."
"good."
"Let my brother try it too."
"Then what do you eat?"
"Well……"
One hundred and seventy kilograms of corn, and the final amount of cornmeal that can be ground is less than one hundred and fifty kilograms. It is impossible to eat until next autumn's harvest.
Lin Nianhe replied with a smile: "I'll treat you to cornmeal, won't you give me anything in return?"
Su Yuncheng smiled and said, "You can give it to whoever you want, and I'll support you after you give it to me."
"Huh? That's so embarrassing." Lin Nianhe blinked, "Besides, I'm not easy to take care of."
"My salary is quite high, I can afford it."
"Really?"
"real."
"Then I have to establish a good relationship with you. Let's go. I'll treat you to hot-boiled mutton tonight."
The joy of sharing the grain is enough to soothe the pain of the autumn harvest. Especially this year, the Shili Brigade had a bumper harvest, so work points are more valuable, and everyone gets more food than last year.
Every household had a good meal and had a good sleep.
When the sun rises again, a new round of work begins again.
The village primary school did not resume classes immediately after the autumn harvest because the harvest was too tiring and the teachers had to slow down. Principal Wu gave them two days off.
On the first day of the holiday, share the food; on the second day of the holiday, accumulate sauerkraut.
Lin Nianhe sat on the small bench, breaking up the cabbage and muttering plaintively: "Why don't I feel like I'm on vacation at all? This work has never stopped."
Wang Shumei was boiling water. When she heard this, she said rudely: "I have to remind you that we haven't picked up the mountain products yet. We can pick up more hazelnuts, walnuts, fungus... we can eat more for a long time."
Lin Nianhe paused while breaking off the cabbage.
Wen Lan moved the cabbage with the old gang removed into the kitchen and said nonchalantly: "Just go up the mountain after class. It doesn't take much effort."
Lin Nianhe: "..."
She doesn't have to eat these things.
She was feeling sad when Aunt Li came.
"Oh, you all got it." Aunt Li came in wearing an apron. She didn't say much nonsense when she came in. She rolled up her sleeves and started to help.
She smiled and said, "I thought you girls couldn't accumulate sauerkraut, but Shumei did it pretty well."
"I used to do it at home." Wang Shumei replied with a smile, "Aunt Li, I feel more at ease when you come here and help me check things out."
"Okay, let's do it together."
Aunt Li and Wang Shumei each occupied a stove. They inserted two chopsticks into the cabbage and blanched the cabbage for a while, then removed it and blanched the leaves, and then put them aside to cool.
They didn't have much cabbage, and Lin Nianhe had no more work to do after cutting it for a while. She gathered the cabbage gang together and asked, "What should I do with these vegetables?"
"You don't have any chickens here, just send them to the cowshed." Aunt Li replied, "Just leave them there and I'll take them with me when I go back."
Lin Nianhe looked at the technical flow work they were doing, and felt that he couldn't do it himself, so he said, "I'll send it over to save you from having to make a trip."
After saying that, she took the basket full of vegetable leaves on her back and left the backyard.
There is smoke from cooking in the village, and everyone is stocking up on sauerkraut. The same is true in the front yard. Female educated youths are stocking up on sauerkraut, and the Seven Wood Brothers went up the mountain to chop firewood with the men in the village.
Lin Nianhe walked slowly to the bullpen and heard Bai Xiaojun's laughter before he even entered.
She looked over and saw Niu Wa was there.
Bai Xiaojun's hands and face were covered with mud, but Niu Wa was clean.
"Sister Hehe." Niu Wa smiled when she saw Lin Nianhe, trotted around behind her, and stretched out her little hands to help her lift the basket on her back.
Bai Xiaojun also smiled and wanted to reach out, but when he saw his dirty little paws, he put his hand down again.
Lin Nianhe put down his backpack and saw that they were the only two people in the cowshed, so he asked, "Where is my uncle?"
"Uncle went to pull wood." Niu Wa replied, "Brother Zhuangzhi also went up the mountain to chop wood."
In addition to accumulating sauerkraut, preparing firewood for the winter is also a top priority. If you are not fully prepared now, it will not be so easy to get firewood when the mountains are blocked by heavy snow. If there is no firewood in winter, people will freeze to death.
The Shili Brigade went to chop wood together as a group. In addition to the men, strong female comrades also went together. After finishing their work at home, almost everyone will go up the mountain to collect firewood.
Lin Nianhe poured the vegetable leaves in the basket into an empty trough and said to them: "You can use vegetable leaves to feed chickens recently. Just throw the leaves in."
"Okay." Bai Xiaojun was very interested in feeding the chickens. He immediately picked up two cabbage leaves and threw them in. Then he looked at the railing and watched the chickens eating vegetables, and occasionally let out excited lows.
Lin Nianhe looked at him for a while, chuckled, turned back to Niu Wa and asked, "Where is Shanshan?"
"Sister Shanshan is at Aunt Wang's house. We visited her before we came here." Niu Wa is like a little housekeeper who knows everything.
Lin Nianhe rubbed his head and stretched out his hand towards Bai Xiaojun: "Xiaojun, let's go back first. There's a movie tonight. I'll get you some food when we get back."
The cowshed is far from the village, and there are few people in the village now, so she really feels uneasy.
As soon as Bai Xiaojun heard that there was food, he immediately dropped the chicken and threw himself into Lin Nianhe's arms.
