The land is in the hands of the government, and He Baozheng said that we still have to deal with the government!
No matter what he does recently, he can't get around this behemoth. Liang Chuan feels very depressed. He wants to avoid it, but he keeps wandering in its shadow all the time. Fortunately, He Baozheng said that it's okay if he has free time tomorrow. Let's go to the county government together. He is familiar with the place and can help take care of it.
Liang Chuan and Zhaodi went back first. Along the way, Zhaodi kept saying that Baozheng's home felt weird. He was a big shot, but he didn't expect that his home would be just like theirs, making people feel uncomfortable.
Liang Chuan met two families today, and each family has its own way of living. Although Baozheng's home looks more glamorous than Zhao's brother and sister-in-law's home, Liang Chuan feels that He Baozheng is no happier than Zhao's brother and sister-in-law. The one with gray hair is the most realistic portrayal.
Every family has its own problems. I and Yi Niang have been dependent on each other for life. They can understand each other and consider each other. It seems that the two of them are doing well in a simple life. .
Be content and happy.
Liang Chuan asked Zhaodi if he knew He Baozheng's daughter. Zhaodi shook his head and said, "In this village, he basically knows all the men who go out and about, but women and girls generally don't show their faces. I want to get to know him." There’s no way, haha.”
He is not a nosy person, so he doesn't like to pay attention to women's affairs.
"Don't you know? Forget it if you don't know. That daughter and that little girl seem to be a problem for He Baozheng." Liang Chuan said to himself.
"I don't know about his daughter, but I know about his son. He doesn't want to be a farmer. We have met him several times before and he is very worried. He has been away for several years and has not come back yet."
"Do you know what his son is doing outside?"
"Then I don't know about that. I don't have any friendship with his son."
Back at home, several women were busy working. Yi Niang set up an iron pot, and vegetables and rice were cooking in the pot.
Ye Xiaochai and the other women worked hard to tie up the thatch. They made a high pile, a piece of thatch as big as the door panel. If they get more thatch, they can build a thatched house. All the rubbish on the ruins was cleared away, and the space in the yard instantly became much larger.
It was already noon. Yi Niang opened the iron pot. The rich aroma of rice hit her face the moment she opened the lid. Several people, including Liang Chuan, took a gulp of saliva in unison. It was so fragrant. Ye Xiaochai and the others have been locked up in the cottage for too long. They haven't had a clean meal for an unknown amount of time, and the meal is so fragrant and clean.
Yi Niang asked everyone to stop what they were doing. It was already time for lunch. The work would never be finished, but if you didn't eat a meal, you would be hungry. Everyone had a big bowl full of vegetable rice. Some mustard greens were added to the rice, and a little butter and soy sauce were added. Even without side dishes and soup, it was so addictive that people couldn't stop eating it. Everyone tried their best. He put the rice into his mouth, completely satisfying his hunger.
Although Ye Xiaochai and the other women are still a little bit mature, Ye Xiaochai has talked to them a lot and done a lot of ideological work. Now they have no other ideas and just live one day at a time, and in front of them Li can also see that they have met a good person. The other people are trying to exploit them. This man named Liang Chuan leads them to have food and clothing. They can leave now if they want. Wherever they go, man He is dead and his home is gone. He can only beg on the streets. What else can he do? Besides, in this world, women are either sold to brothels or kidnapped to be used as cheap wives. Maybe they will meet again. What kind of scumbag would be better than he is now? Won't.
They watched Ye Xiaochai eating, and they began to eat with confidence. However, they still formed a circle around Liang Chuan and the others. Yi Niang was afraid that they would see others, so she squeezed together with them holding a bowl, while the three gentlemen Liang Chuan sat on one side. Although it is still very quiet, as time goes by, the heart will naturally open up. Living in darkness will only swallow yourself up completely.
The amazing thing is Hei Bi. When I was eating, I felt that something was wrong with this guy recently. In the past, when I went to relieve myself, this guy would follow me around as if he was not afraid of the smell. But now he doesn't seem to follow me everywhere. While eating, he kept hanging around Li Chuyi. Li Chuyi was pretty good to him. He often massaged him with his big rough hands, scratching his big tail and waving it around.
After dinner in the afternoon, Liang Chuan led Zhaodi and Li Chuyi and Heibi up the mountain to chop some wood and build a temporary thatched house. But compared to wood, bamboo is better, because bamboo is longer and straighter. To build a triangular thatched house, just put up two bamboos on the left and right, and then put a bamboo on the front and back across it, and use thatched felt on both sides. Cover it to prevent wind.
Liang Chuan also thought about living in the lower pavilion every day, but after all, there were too many people. If each person had a room, it would be a huge expense when the house was built. The cost of the house was unknown. How many.
Liang Chuan had previously discussed with Ye Xiaochai and the others the idea of temporarily building a thatched house to survive. Liang Chuan thought they would be a little unhappy, but he did not expect that the group of women represented by Ye Xiaochai had no objection at all. The thatched house was comparable to that The pig pen is much better. According to Liang Chuan, these women will go to Fengshan to rent a house for them to live in first. The rented house can be lived in even if it is clean, and it is much better than living in a thatched house. There is no need to worry about wind, cold and dew. Seriously, Liang Chuan and the others will have to look at the materials when they build a house, so there is nothing they can do about it.
On the mountain behind Liang Chuan's house, there are scattered bamboos. They are not as dense as the bamboo forests on the mountain. There are just a few scattered on the mountain, and they are not far apart. When Liang Chuan sees bamboo, he cuts it down and brings a ten-meter-long bamboo pole. It was best to make the skeleton of the thatched house. Li Chuyi was responsible for cutting it, and Liang Chuan and Zhaodi were responsible for carrying the bamboo underneath, then cutting it into even sections, setting up a triangle, and fixing it with hemp rope. A few women tied up thatched felt and covered it on the bamboo frame, and a simple thatched hut was built.
Although the thatched hut is small, it is only used for sleeping. With a little thatch underneath, you can sleep in it. There are two such huts built first, one for Li Chuyi and Zhaodi, and one for Liang Chuan. . Now that there are too many women around me, if the three of us don't show some style, it won't sound good if there are too many rumors.
Liang Chuan and Zhaodi carried the bamboo back, and the women were responsible for building thatched houses. Women in the countryside can generally do this kind of farm work, and they can do it better than men because her hands are more skillful and her thoughts are more meticulous. One thing, it won’t be careless and will be more practical and beautiful.
After Liang Chuan finished chopping, he and Zhaodi went up the mountain again, carrying a basket and a hoe. After Li Chuyi chopped a few bamboos, Liang Chuan said it was enough and no need to chop anymore, so he stopped and waited for them. Liang Chuan led two of them and a dog back to the bamboo forest. This section of the road took a long time to walk, but compared to the last time when I came here for the first time, I was not mentally prepared. This time, Liang Chuan was mentally prepared and deliberately quickened his pace. It used to take almost an hour to walk, but now it took half an hour to reach it.
The breeze blows through the bamboo sea, and the rustling sound is quite pleasant to the ear.
Zhaodi recalled the bamboo rat meat last time and couldn't help but swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said: "Third brother, what are we doing here today? Are we still catching bamboo rats?"
Liang Chuan looked at Zhaodi and said with a smile: "The bamboo rat last time was delicious."
Zhaodi didn't even hide it, his mouth was almost drooling, and he said: "It's delicious! Fragrant!"
Liang Chuan said: "Are you greedy? I also want to eat it every day, but the bamboo rat last time was caught by Heibi. If you want to eat it, you have to ask Heibi, not me. We can't eat meat this time. It would be nice to try something vegetarian instead.”
"Vegetarian? Where is it?"
Liang Chuan led Zhaodi to a green bamboo that was only one or two years old. The age of the bamboo can be judged based on the color of its surface. Generally, the darker the color, the older the bamboo, but if the bamboo is too young, No bamboo shoots will grow. Finding bamboo shoots is a technical job. Bamboo shoots in winter will not grow above the ground. It is not difficult to dig bamboo shoots, but it requires effort. Finding bamboo shoots is not something that can be accomplished with effort.
Liang Chuan stepped on the ground with his feet and felt the hardness coming from the soles of his feet. It was best to start with loose soil and observe the cracks in the ground with his eyes. As long as there were slight bulges, looseness or cracks in the soil under his feet, step lightly with his feet. A soft feeling is a sign of bamboo shoots.
Zhaodi often went up the mountain before, but he didn't pay special attention to this bamboo forest, let alone dig bamboo shoots in the bamboo forest. Besides, bamboo shoots are hard to find. He has also eaten bamboo shoots, and the taste is really not as good as meat. Spending a long time digging out a tasteless bamboo shoot to eat, Zhaodi really couldn't do it. So when he saw Liang Chuan looking for bamboo shoots, he wasn't interested anymore.
Look for the direction of the bamboo whip along the lowest branches of the bamboo. For older female bamboos, the shoots are tied on the mother branches of the bamboo whip and in front of the mother bamboo. For younger female bamboos, the shoots are tied on the split whips of the bamboo whip. , usually behind the mother bamboo. Anyway, if you search carefully along the bamboo whip, you will definitely gain something. Liang Chuan and Zhaodi vigorously pulled the fallen bamboo leaves on the ground, peeling away the thick layer of humus soil on the ground, and slowly looked for the delicious food for dinner. .
Black Nose especially likes the feeling of coming to the forest. You can obviously feel its excitement. From time to time, it will rush into the grass, scratching here and barking twice. Li Chuyi has nothing to do now, so he just follows Liang Chuan. He often doesn't understand what Liang Chuan does, but why does he understand?
He also couldn't understand Liang Chuan's behavior, but he found Liang Chuan very interesting. What was interesting meant that Liang Chuan was not like an ordinary farmer, no! He is more like a gangster. It can be seen from Liang Chuan's style of doing things that although Liang Chuan is confusing, he has his own ideas. Li Chuyi wandered around in the bamboo forest with Heibi. He hadn't been to this forest for a long time.
