An Guomin and Li Laoshuan finished their noodles at Ma's house and then started to go through the procedures for settling in Jintan Village. They received their homestead and farmland.
Homesteads and cultivated land are calculated based on population, with each adult receiving fifty square meters of homestead land and three acres of wasteland in the Gobi Desert. Each minor is given thirty square meters of homestead and one and a half acres of wasteland.
After the land was divided and the homestead was received, the two families were first arranged to move into a nest.
Now everyone in the village lives here. There is no way. No one in the village has money. They can't even afford to build a house when they immigrate here. They can only work and save money first and then build it slowly.
"If I had known it was so difficult here, we might as well have stayed in Kushui Village. At least we would have a house to live in~" An Yongkang complained.
"Yes, it was eldest brother who harmed us. He tricked us into this miserable place." An Yongshou also agreed.
"Shut up, everyone! Don't speak ill of your elder brother again. You will both have to count on him in the future." Upon hearing this, An Guomin immediately scolded, "If I offend your elder brother, I will not help you in the future. I What do you two do?
Besides, everyone can live here, why can't you two live here? What do you two have to do with your money? After eating steamed buns for two days, I don’t know what my last name is. If you chew maggots again, I'll hang you both up and beat them. "
In one sentence, An Yongkang and An Yongshou did not dare to speak.
…
Ma family.
Ma Huashui also told his son Ma Defu, "Defu, you heard today, Shui Hua married a good man, and the couple is living a good life. Don't worry about her anymore."
"I know, Dad." Ma Defu nodded, "Well, I didn't care about her at all."
"That's right." Ma Huashui nodded, "Dad will find a good woman for you. You are also of age to get a wife."
"Dad, my forehead is still small." Upon hearing this, Ma Defu waved his hands and said, "Besides, the government stipulates that you can only get married when you are twenty-two years old."
"Listen to it, there are many people in our village who get married at the age of seventeen or eighteen." Ma Huashui said disdainfully, "But you are a cadre, so you should be careful. In this case, get married first, and then get the certificate when you are old enough. "
"Dad, just forget about this matter." Ma Defu waved his hand, "Well, you can make up your own mind."
"You bastard, are you still hanging on the water?" Seeing his excuses, Ma Xiangshui couldn't help but cursed, "Well, I'm telling you, don't make this idea as soon as possible."
"Dad, Shuihua is not the same as before, and I won't think about her anymore." Seeing that his father was angry, Ma Defu quickly explained, "Now I just want to do a good job and complete the hoisting work." Get started. Don’t think about anything else, so don’t worry about it.”
Ma Huashui nodded after hearing what he said.
…
Two days later, everyone in Jintan Village knew that Shuihua married a good man.
"Shui Hua'er is really lucky to marry a man who is so promising."
"We used to say that people's lives were miserable, but now it seems that they really have a good life."
"You can earn thousands of dollars just by writing an article? Why don't you believe it? How can an article be so profitable?"
The old men in the village sat under the wall to enjoy the cool air, muttering to themselves while enjoying the cool air.
I am very envious of water flowers.
Everyone in the village knew before that Shui Hua and Ma Defu were a couple.
Ma Defu was admitted to school, assigned to a government job, and received a golden rice bowl. The whole village was envious of him.
But Shuihua failed to marry him, and instead married the village man An Yongfu, which made them all feel regretful.
Unexpectedly, in a sudden turn of events, the man from Shuihua suddenly became famous, and two articles sold for 10,000 yuan.
This is much more profitable than being blessed.
Moreover, the couple immediately moved to Yinchuan and became city residents.
Therefore, the splash is not because life is miserable, but because life is too good.
…
While chatting, I heard a thumping sound.
Everyone followed the sound and saw that the road was filled with dust. They didn't know what was coming.
Everyone was puzzled and stood up to watch.
After a while, two giant beasts were seen passing through the dust and fog and stopping at the entrance of the village.
"What is this?!" The villagers couldn't recognize it.
At this moment, two people got out of the car and walked into the village together. After seeing the villagers, he greeted with a smile, "Call Uncle Shui, Uncle Wugu, Uncle Shuanmen, and Uncle Dayou~ Everyone is pinching~"
"Ah, Shui Hua'er, who are you?" When the villagers saw Shui Hua, they all shouted in surprise.
"Uncle Shui, Uncle Wuquan, Uncle Shuanmen, Uncle Dayou... let me introduce to you, this is the man An Yongfuer." Li Shuihua introduced, "Yongfuer, these are the uncles..."
Xiang Nan said hello to the fellow villagers one by one.
When the villagers saw that Xiang Nan and Shui Hua were dressed in bright clothes and were completely different from the villagers like them, they couldn't help but feel a little ashamed of themselves.
"Shui Hua'er, why are you here?"
"What are you doing with these machines?"
"As soon as your father comes, you come~"
The villagers talked a lot.
"Use these machines to flatten the ground." Li Shuihua explained, "The tractor is powerful, and once you plow and rake, the ground will be flat."
"Ah, this is so cute~" When the villagers heard this, they all said with envy.
To open up wasteland, they had to dig with picks and shovels. They were so exhausted that they couldn't even clear a single piece of land in a day.
"Um, I'll talk to you later. Let's go find Dad first. Where does he live now?" Shuihua asked.
"Let's go, I'll take you there." Li Dayou took the initiative, and other villagers followed.
…
Shui Hua then found her father, Li Laoshuan, who was sleeping in his nest on the ground.
Xiang Nan also found An Guomin, Niu Xiuhua, An Yongshou and other members of the family, who were digging stones in the ground.
"Okay, stop plowing. I hired a heavy-duty tractor. Use it to plow and plow and it will be fine." Xiang Nan greeted.
Then, two heavy-duty tractors entered the field, plowing and raking, causing dust to fly as big as a sandstorm. However, the greater the movement, the greater the efficiency.
Just like this time and again, the land of both families was almost done.
All the stones in the field were plowed out and raked to the edge, leaving only sand. I can’t say how fertile it is, but at least farming is no problem.
"Oh, that's great, no need to dig the ground!" An Yongshou couldn't help cheering when he saw it.
When the villagers saw him, they were extremely envious.
They have been working here for half a year, and they haven't cleared all the land yet.
This big machine has been used for just a few times and it has been able to finish all the work. It is really neat and awesome.
"Shui Hua, how much does it cost to rent this big machine?" Li Dayou asked curiously.
"I was given two hundred yuan when I came," Shui Hua explained, "and another twenty yuan for one acre of land."
"Twenty per acre?! So expensive!" Li Dayou, Shuan Men, Yang San and others were all stunned when they heard this.
They work in brick kilns and farms to earn money. They work hard and earn only five yuan a day.
This big machine costs 20 yuan per acre of land. It is too expensive and they cannot afford to use it.
They were still thinking about letting this big machine work for them, but when they heard it was so expensive, they quickly gave up.
