Chapter 97: conch girl
Chapter 97 Conch Girl
The yard they were assigned was actually very close to their forest farm.
It only takes ten minutes to walk from where I live to the forest farm.
It can be seen that the forest farm also takes good care of them.
Actually, there are not many workers in the forest farm now, and there are only a few people in this yard. They live in the yard where they are the only two groups of educated youths. Basically, they occupy five rooms.
Jiang Xiaoxiao and Jia Shu lived in one room, and the remaining four rooms were occupied by male educated youths.
Approximately distributed.
Eleven people are divided into three rooms.
He Aiguo and Song Moting lived in one room.
Everyone is busy tidying up their dormitories. Jiang Xiaoxiao and Jia Shu's dormitories are spacious this time.
In this Datongpu, even if two people are rolling on it, they can't touch each other.
Jiang Xiaoxiao still chose a place with a kang cabinet against the wall, and a kang table between the two of them, so that they could eat and study at the same time.
It’s okay to do a little manual work.
The whole house was kept in order by the two girls.
However, the house has not been lived in all year round, so it is a bit damp now.
Jiang Xiaoxiao and Jia Shu went out to find Song Moting, He Aiguo and the others.
Jiang Xiaoxiao naturally knew that in half a month on this mountain, the first snow would probably fall.
By then the snow will be getting heavier and heavier, and even if they are burning firewood in the forest farm, they will have to go up the mountain to collect it.
It is impossible to sit in the house, and the firewood can come to the yard by itself. They have to store fuel for the winter.
As soon as they left the house, they saw Song Moting and He Aiguo changing their clothes with the male educated youths, holding axes and ropes in their hands and preparing to go up the mountain.
Looks like they have somewhere in mind.
"It just so happened that we originally said we were going to find you. Let's go up the mountain to chop firewood. It's going to be winter soon, so we have to store firewood for the winter. You two girls, don't go up the mountain. You can clean up the stove in the house and give it to the big guys. Let's cook.
As for the rations, we have already carried them on our backs. Let's just make do with one meal, which can be regarded as our open meal. "
Song Moting had already thought about it, and naturally he had to take more care of the two female educated youths.
It’s not that they should stop working in the future, but this kind of strenuous work is naturally what the men should do.
It’s better for girls to stay here and cook. Anyway, cooking is not a strong point for these grown men.
It is better if everyone divides the work and cooperates.
Everyone does what they are good at, no one is delayed, and they cooperate well with each other.
Jiang Xiaoxiao agreed upon hearing this.
They eleven grown men went up to the mountain to chop firewood, so what else could they do with their two little girls? The division of labor between them and cooking was really a good idea.
Looking at Song Moting and the others leaving.
Jiang Xiaoxiao and the others also ran directly to the kitchen in the yard. The kitchen in the yard was in a separate room.
In fact, the forest farm has many benefits. For example, the forest farm workers in this kitchen originally made a lot of cupboards. To put it bluntly, there is no shortage of furniture here.
At this time, food and other things have been moved in.
Zao is a large stove.
To put it bluntly, it is an earth stove.
Jiang Xiaoxiao and Jia Shu are both capable people. Jia Shu has to do housework at home. Jiang Xiaoxiao has naturally done a lot in his previous life, so he is naturally familiar with this kind of work.
The two of them worked together to clean the house first. After sweeping away all the cobwebs and dust, the whole house was much cleaner.
The two people calculated their rations. Each of them received one hundred catties of cornmeal, ten catties of white flour, and ten catties of rice.
This is not a small amount of food, and they will eat it until next year's summer harvest.
Based on this calculation, there are still more than six months left.
It would be really hard to eat this little food for more than six months.
Jiang Xiaoxiao is not worried. He doesn’t have much in his space, and he has the most food and vegetables.
When the time comes, secretly put some into the grain and they will all have food to eat.
But she didn't do that at the moment. Jia Shu was right next to her, and she suddenly took out these things, which was not too scary.
They came to the forest farm, and the director of the forest farm brought the workers to see them. They were very enthusiastic.
After all, these educated youths do have a sense of superiority compared to workers like them who cannot read a single word.
Educated young people.
The director of the forest farm directly brought them 100 heads of cabbage and 100 kilograms of radishes.
This is what they planted themselves in autumn. In addition to doing this kind of work, the workers in their forest farm also grow some vegetables and food for their families to improve their lives.
You can’t always eat from the big pot.
Although the big pot is sufficient, they still have to make some things to improve their lives themselves.
Jiang Xiaoxiao was extremely grateful. She was worried that she couldn't get out the vegetables she saw. Wasn't this a ready-made excuse for others to bring them to her?
Sent away the forest farm director and workers, the two of them started cooking.
With no time to cook anything else, Jiang Xiaoxiao cooked a large pot of rice and fried Chinese cabbage and shredded radish.
Taking advantage of Jia Shu's lack of attention, she took the opportunity to cook there.
She took out a few bundles of green onions and added some more cabbage to the Chinese cabbage.
Anyway, Jia Shu didn't pay attention at all just now. She only knew that the director and others had brought food, but she didn't know what kind of food it was.
When Song Moting and the others came back, they smelled the aroma of the food and suddenly felt as if they were home.
This is different from the feeling of a canteen. It seems that someone is waiting for them at home to prepare a meal.
The eleven of them are not idle. After all, they are all good young men. When they work, they are very resolute and neat.
In this short period of time, a lot of firewood was cut down from the mountain, and most of the yard was piled neatly.
At this rate, it is estimated that in two days, they will have all the firewood ready for the winter.
Wash your face.
Jiang Xiaoxiao and Jia Shu have already called them to start dinner.
The kitchen is a very large room, and you should have been able to eat here.
Mainly by looking at the huge round wooden table here and a few benches, you can tell that the original farm and forestry workers also ate here.
This saves trouble and saves time on the bed.
Everyone holds a lunch box.
Several people were surprised when they saw Chinese cabbage and shredded radish, but they remembered that they were only given rations, not any vegetables.
“Could it be that the two of you are the conch fairy, and you actually have the ability to conjure Chinese cabbage and white radish?”
Song Moting was joking.
Jia Shu pursed her lips and smiled.
"Yes, we are fairies in the sky. You have to be kind to us, otherwise, fairies will punish people."
This is the first time I’m joking. Jia Shu is usually a reserved person.
Jiang Xiaoxiaole is not good at it.
He Aiguo glanced at Jia Shu.
He was actually joking.
"Yes! Fairy daughter, how dare we offend the fairies? From now on, we have to ask the fairies for our food. If the fairies are unhappy, we will be hungry, don't you think so?"
Everyone burst into laughter.
"Okay, stop making noise. This is sent by the director of the forest farm. He also took care of us educated youths and sent some cabbage, green onions, white radish and so on. And the director of the forest farm also said that we have a cellar in our yard. , then the cabbages, radishes, etc. will be stored in the cellar, otherwise they will freeze in the winter.”
Jiang Xiaoxiao explained.
Everyone suddenly realized.
Not to mention that every one of them is very grateful to these people.
They are having a good time now.
