·
Lu Feng Shi De Bai Gong Zhu
Didn't you, the second one, say that Cuicui's job was arranged by the county public security bureau?In other words, Li Zhiqing’s aunt at the supply and marketing cooperative and the director of the Public Security Bureau are the same family.”
"Ah, so that's what it is," Lao Liu finally understood and said
After the old lady understood it, she thought for a while and said, "Old man, isn't this a beautiful thing?"
"Whether it's beautiful or not, we don't care. But what the old man said today is that you can't say a word about the things you exchanged with other educated youths tonight. If anyone asks, just say that you asked someone to buy it. As for who it is, just tell them who it is. If you say you don’t know, do you know?”
"Got it Dad"
"Then what if someone asks if it's Cuicui?"
"Just say I don't know, and say it was your mother or the old man who asked someone to change it. I don't believe anyone can ask me about it."
"It's dad"
"Also, from now on in our community, you guys should protect these three children and don't let others bully them. These three children are all good in life and work. They will only do you good and no harm, you know. ?"
"Don't worry, Dad, we know."
"Old man, do you want to tell them that they can dig herbs in the mountains?" the old lady thought for a while and asked.
"Just tell me, I won't be able to hide it for long."
"Father, mother, no need. I heard from Zhenghua that in August, the three of them, Huang Guang, Li Zhiqing handed over hundreds of kilograms of medicinal herbs, and the two Chen Zhiqing also handed over forty or fifty kilograms each."
"How many, good fellow, where did so many herbs come from in the periphery? When did they dig them?"
"I told you not to cheat and cheat, but you just don't listen. Okay, you have nothing to do in your free time. You can do the math for yourself. Let's not talk about Li Zhiqing, let's talk about these two Chen Zhiqing. How much money can they earn in a month by digging herbs? .Besides, haven’t you seen that people leave work early every day and go into the mountains with their backpacks on their backs after work?”
"Got it Dad"
With that said, the people sitting in the room went out.
"Now that you know it, why don't you get out of here? Go back and think about it. It's worse than three teenage kids. I'm so angry."
"Okay, old man, I didn't react before, so it's not too late to react today."
"It's not too late. Wait until next year when you go to the mountains and see how many herbs are left to be dug."
"Old man, you mean"
"No one is a fool"
"What to do then"
"What else can I do? When I can go up the mountain before it snows, the men will go up to the mountain to cut firewood, and the women will go to collect herbs. The children will go to the mountain for me to find food. The younger ones in the family, You take care of it.”
"Okay, listen to you"
Just three people, each of them now has more than 20 kilograms of meat, but they are not willing to eat them all. Instead, like the Gu family brother said, they will make bacon for later consumption.
Another thing is that it hasn't snowed yet, so you still have to hurry up the mountain to collect firewood or find food.
Because people who went into the mountains to hunt have all come back, and some of the strong laborers are at home. On the other hand, when they go into the mountains, they will walk further in, but they will not step into the deep mountains, so now they can find food in Zhongwei. slightly less.Although there are not many people in the brigade, there are more than a dozen nearby brigade, which are relatively not far away, so after the autumn harvest is completed, they will go into the mountains to collect firewood for the winter.
Chen Junjie asked: "With so many people going into the mountains, let alone looking for food, they may not be able to cut much even if they cut firewood. They have been damaged so much that small trees cannot be damaged even if they have pruned branches. I really didn't expect that. , I usually look lazy, but I’m actually working so hard on Kanchai.”
"Who says it isn't?" Chen Enpeng also said
"Don't you have enough firewood?"
"I don't know. This is also our first year to spend the winter here." Chen Enpeng said without thinking about preparing firewood.
"Then how about I take you for a walk into the mountains?"
"Ah, is this possible?" Chen Junjie asked
"Yes, Mianmian, let's forget it. They say there are big guys in the mountains, so let's forget it."
"What are you two thinking about? They said they would take you two into the mountains, but they didn't say how far they would take you. I mean, didn't you notice that everyone was in Kanchai, three meters away from the mountains and Zhongwei? "
"Do you mean the three-meter range?" Chen Enpeng asked
"Yes! No matter whether there is food or not in these three meters, there is still dry firewood. Besides, it will be fine even three to five meters further in. Regardless of our brigade, there are several brigade that live near the foot of the mountain. , didn’t they all go hunting in the mountains on the same day? There won’t be any big prey near the mountains now. They all feel trapped inside.”
"That's fine, that's fine. You thought you were going directly to the mountains to find food?"
"Even if you dare to go, I don't dare to take you two with me. Even if you have the ability to protect yourself, you wouldn't do this, let alone not having the ability."
"Okay" Chen Junjie said
"Then let's go a little further in?" Chen Enpeng asked
"Go, go."
In this way, before the mountain was closed, we were active within five or six meters of the intersection of Zhongwei and Shenshan every day.We more or less found some food, but relatively speaking it was not much. The reason is simple, even the three of us were not the only ones in this area.Other members of the commune also walked together, and they also brought tools. In addition to machetes, each of them also carried a large wooden stick, just in case something came down, and it could also be used as a carrying pole.Seeing that, the three of us also got one the next day.This makes it much easier to pick up firewood or bags.
I heard from the elders in the village that it snows every day at the end of October or the beginning of November, so there are only a few days left.Therefore, the three of us are not like other families in the brigade who have a large family. Even the firewood can be prepared in two or three days. The rest of the time is spent in the mountains either looking for food or digging wild vegetables or herbs.We can only pick up whatever we see, put the food in the backpack first, and put it in the bag if the basket cannot be opened.Or if you can't find anything to eat, you just collect firewood and tie it into bundles. When it's almost done, the three of you will carry the load back together, go up the mountain together, and have three meetings a day.
The only good thing about us is that we usually finish work early and go up the mountain to collect firewood after work.If the other members of the brigade were working as hard laborers every day, let alone preparing firewood for activities in three days, there was no guarantee whether it would be ready before snow closed the mountains.
Chen Enpeng and Chen Junjie said privately, "Peng Zi, fortunately we didn't think Mianmian was young and didn't listen to her. Look at the firewood and food we have prepared now. We just don't have the food distributed by the team. Otherwise, If we say that we will survive until next year when the food is distributed, we will definitely have enough food this winter."
"Ah, so that's what it is," Lao Liu finally understood and said
After the old lady understood it, she thought for a while and said, "Old man, isn't this a beautiful thing?"
"Whether it's beautiful or not, we don't care. But what the old man said today is that you can't say a word about the things you exchanged with other educated youths tonight.

"It's dad"
"Also, from now on in our community, you guys should protect these three children and don't let others bully them. These three children are all good in life and work. They will only do you good and no harm, you know. ?"
