Zhang Chengye was not in a good mood, but neither the educated youth nor them was his choice.
After the allocation from above, they can only receive it.
After receiving the temporary notice, he first led the person back to the cow and shed, and explained a few words.
He has a compassionate heart, after all, he is quite old, so he confessed a few words before leaving.
Today he brought people back, and tomorrow according to the usual practice, some people will come down to organize a fighting meeting, let them go up to conduct self-criticism and accept criticism and suggestions from the people.
Make preparations in advance, write a review letter, and think about the review words. Be good, and you can save yourself from suffering.
The two newcomers brought simple quilts, without bed boards, which Zhang Chengye would not provide, and the simple furniture in the cow and shed were slowly pieced together by themselves.
Everyone came to this place for one reason or another. The original five people didn't understand the two strangers. After experiencing these things, they were very wary, but they didn't completely ignore them.
The two rooms here were originally larger than the one where the man lived. Now that two more people are squeezed in, they can still be squeezed in, but if there are more people, there is really no way.
They got some hay from the five of them and spread it on the ground, which became their bed.
Putting their bedding aside, we shared a meal of steamed sweet potatoes.
The amount for five people is now eaten by seven people. It used to be able to eat six cents full, but now everyone only eats four or five cents.
It was a little cold at night at this time, and they needed to be covered with a quilt. The two of them took out an old dress and put it on as a quilt. The smell was strong. In this strange place, the two of them felt that this night was special. long.
Thinking about today, thinking about tomorrow, thinking about their future, do they still have a future
Early in the morning, Zhang Chengye blew the whistle to call people to gather. Not long after, someone from the town came, holding a gong, and knocking loudly. Everyone was familiar with this posture.
This kind of assembly is called by the whole village, but children are not among them, and most of the adults are not willing to let children participate in this "lively".
So did Su Hui, she left the three little ones at home, told them not to go out, and took Zhang Baoguo to the gathering place.
This is the conference center of their village. There is a platform on it, where meetings are usually held, food distribution, etc., but today it has become a pit fight platform.
The original body has experienced it before, but this is the first time for Su Hui. She and Zhang Baoguo stood among many villagers, inconspicuous at all, watching the townspeople read their crimes aloud on the stage, and then everyone They chanted slogans together, and the atmosphere was so frenzied that it was like a pyramid scheme.
There were three people who came, one was beating gongs and drums, one was in the audience, and the last one was on the stage. He read the crime aloud beside the standing people. After the reading was over, they were asked to do a self-criticism. It cannot be ignored, let everyone criticize, how to criticize
That is to swear loudly and throw some rotten leaves at them, indicating that they still need to continue to reform, and they are in a mess, so the people in the town are satisfied.
"We must not tolerate such bad people, sub-groups, and people. The eyes of the people are bright, and we must illuminate everything. The Chairman said that a single spark can start a prairie fire. When the fire is extinguished at the spark point, all reactionaries, movements, and factions will be overthrown..."
No wonder Zhao Xialan asked her if she had brought anything when she saw her, and she said she didn't stuff her with a handful of rotten leaves. It seems that everyone understands.
Zhang Chengye took the lead, saying that the people will strictly urge them to reform their thinking...
Wenxue held up his self-criticism book, lowered his head, and listened to what others said, and threw rotten leaves on his body, but he didn't respond, as if he was out of his mind.
This is no stranger, and he has experienced all the more humiliating. He didn't give up at the beginning, but there was no other result except that the more he was criticized, the more troubled his relatives and friends were. He had already resigned to his fate.
The meeting didn't end until near noon. Zhang Chengye invited people to his house for a light meal. The three of them didn't stay, but went back with their self-criticism.
The seven people were covered with vegetable leaves, which were sticky and stuck to their bodies, making them very disgusting.
They helped each other back, and the villagers went back to cook in twos and threes, talking about the people on the stage.
"Just now the officials in the town said that these two people, one is a professor of the Department of Mathematics of the Capital University, and the other is a professor of the Department of History of the Capital University, and they are both cultural people."
Some people said: "What's the use of reading so many books? Look at the teachers in the university..."
"Do you know how to hide when you see it in the future?" The parent warned the child sternly: "Otherwise, I will watch out for your legs!"
Others would complain in private: "What's the matter, it's a waste of time, what does this have to do with us..."
After the seven of them returned, they washed their bodies first, and hurriedly ate sweet potatoes to pad their stomachs. They didn't eat anything early in the morning.
Everyone was in no mood to talk, and it didn't take long for the new Wenxueqing and the two of them to faint.
The body and spirit have suffered a major blow, and it is only now that they are sick, which shows that they have a good foundation before, and those with poor foundations are already on the way before they reach their destination.
Zhang Chengye is also proficient at this kind of thing. He took the medicine and asked the two of them to recover from their illnesses first. He also gave them food rations, save some, and when it was time to distribute the food, he would just make up for what he owed.
They really have nothing to do when they come here, except for bedding and clothes, they don't have a dime on them.
Su Hui didn't take any action, she planned to observe the other party first, she wanted to see if he was worth her helping hand.
In addition, he knew that someone here would take care of him if he was entrusted with it, what would he do
Both of them are relatively strong. They had a fever for a few days and took medicine. At least they survived. After they survived, they worked under the guidance of others.
When they went to clean the pigsty for the first time, the two of them almost vomited, and held back desperately. How long ago, how could they have imagined that they would end up in such a fate
What else is there to say, I can only blame myself for not knowing people clearly, not only implicating myself, but also bringing my family, relatives and friends.
For these two newcomers, everyone in the bullpen was neither indifferent nor indifferent. They helped and gave advice, but they didn't have much heart-to-heart.
No one knew the details of the two of them. They were already like this and could not withstand bigger storms.
The five of them have also experienced a lot and got along slowly, so they have the current relationship. If you want to open your heart, you have to take your time.
As for the necessary help, it is necessary. If you don't hurry up and help them adapt faster, they will be a whole when they are short of clothes and food.
Their work is also counted as work points, but this work point is discounted when it comes to food distribution. In short, they just don’t have enough to eat. If they are full, is it still called reformation
So they will use all their free time to look for food in the mountains, and the most they look for are all kinds of wild vegetables.
Now that there are two more people, if you don't try hard to find more, when the spring comes, you will not be able to uncover the pot.
After observing for a period of time, Su Hui didn't find any problems, so she started to help out. She didn't show up, but when the two of them went up the mountain to find food, she intentionally made some noises at the place where Wenxueqing was advancing, to attract him. Maybe a few wild eggs, maybe a brood of yams...
As for the question of appearances, she decided to take another look.
Xie Rui had the same situation as her, because there was a newcomer there, and she never went there again.
Both sides chose to observe.
The two of them can be regarded as resilient, tired of work, and never complained of suffering.
He ate sweet potatoes and wild vegetables every day, never said anything, and drank water when he was not full. It was not until more than a month later, when he received the package from his son, that Xueqin finally shed tears.
There were not many things on the package, and Zhang Chengye went to collect it on his behalf. After checking it, there was nothing prohibited, so he handed it over to him.
The package is not big, just a pair of summer clothes, two winter clothes, which are very old, and a pair of shoes, a small bag of cornmeal, and half a catty of flour.
When Zhang Chengye was inspecting, he found something strange in the corner of the clothes. There should be some money in it.
Their letters and packages are all to be inspected, and it is very common for something to be taken away during the inspection, just like the white flour. Looking at the bag, there should be more than that, but here, there is only This is half a catty.
Zhang Chengye has also read the letter, the content is very small, just to ask if his father is well, and then say that his side is okay, safe, don’t read, and there is nothing else, just such a letter, let Wenxue fall silently under the quilt Tears were also like a shot in the arm, making the numb him a little more angry.
Compared with him, the colleagues who came to this place with him have no news. After his accident, his wife announced that he was divorcing him, and his children cut off relations with him one after another. The students also avoided him. He has become a lonely family .
…
After a heavy rain, the temperature dropped, and a piece of clothing could no longer resist the temperature. Those old people and children who were afraid of the cold took out their winter clothes one after another.
This year is a good year, with a bumper harvest of rice and sweet potatoes.
Behind the yard of Su Hui's house is a private plot, basically all of which are planted with sweet potatoes. When harvesting, Zhang Gen came to help.
Seeing the harvest, he couldn't help but praise it.
This place used to be at the foot of the mountain, full of shrubs and grass. In the first year, it was sorted out and planted with sweet potatoes. I didn't expect the harvest to be as good as those fertile fields. It seems that the second daughter-in-law is very dedicated to serving her.
These, plus the distribution at the end of the year, are enough for them to eat, and he does not need to subsidize them. He had already prepared them and distributed some to them.
In autumn, the big guys also got enough gifts from the mountains. Every family harvested a lot of wild fruits from the mountains, which can be used as staple food when there is not enough food.
With the planting of winter wheat and other crops, life is relatively leisurely.
During this heavy rain, every family rested at home, because their village could burn tiles, and there were a lot of finished products. Most of the families with serious water leakage gritted their teeth to order tiles. Now that it is raining heavily, even if it will leak, it will not It was raining heavily outside and moderately raining inside.
On rainy days, general happiness is enhanced.
Zhang Baoguo stood by the window, looking at the rain flowers outside, put his hands in his trouser pockets obediently, and stood up straight.
He is practicing military posture, exercising his concentration.
He looked at the private land outside the window, most of which were planted with sweet potatoes, but a small part were planted with kidney beans, peas, rapeseed and so on.
In the vacated room at home, a thousand catties of sweet potatoes were piled up, so much, they could eat them for a long time.
Such a good harvest is due to Sufen watering it from time to time with the spiritual spring, and the production of sweet potatoes is already amazing. The yield per mu is several thousand catties, and they don’t have one mu of private land, but they have harvested a thousand catties. These sweet potatoes can be stored for several months in the shade, but if they want to preserve them for a long time, they must be made into dried sweet potatoes, or It is made into sweet potato flour, but most people make it into dried sweet potato for preservation. Sweet potato flour is delicious, but the quantity is reduced too much.
There were still some sweet potatoes from before, so Su Hui simply moved the millstone into the living room, planning to make some sweet potato flour.
Seeing that there was work to be done, Zhang Baoguo moved his stiff legs: "I'll push!"
This millstone is not light, Su Hui can turn it easily, and Zhang Baoguo can turn it for a while, his current strength is comparable to that of an 18-year-old youth.
He was tired, Zhang Weiguo went on top, he turned around for a while, took a breath, and continued.
This looks very interesting. Seeing them doing it, the two little ones will come to push and push a few times together.
Usually, when Su An used to grind peanuts to make peanut butter, they would come over and play together.
Freshness is not fresh, but it is interesting to be together as a family.
But in the cowshed, they are not as comfortable as they are. They all mobilized and used wooden basins and barrels to catch the rain that leaked down. Poured outside, a rain, tossing them exhausted.
Shortly after this continuous heavy rain, winter officially came.
Su Hui was arrested as a young man.
There is an accountant in their village, who is responsible for calculating work points and food distribution. Every year, the period between the harvest and the food distribution is very busy. Sometimes they will arrest people to help. Su Hui was arrested this time to help. .
But it's not the grain side, but the tile side.
Every time the kiln is released, the number of tiles produced is recorded, and whoever decides how many is also counted, but the people in their village are only counting up to now, that is to say, they only take away the tiles and If there is no payment, this payment will be calculated together at the end of the year, and the people from other villages came to their village to buy it with real money.
There are also people who help their in-laws in other villages by themselves, but this kind of Zhang Chengye has sternly stated that if it is not for his own household, he will also have to give money at the end of the year, deducted from the year-end dividends, and if it is not enough Delayed until the next year, it can always be paid off.
So far, no one has done so. After all, I don’t know how much I will pay, and most of them are still waiting and watching.
As for these tiles, how much can be deducted with work points? How to do this? They have to come up with a charter. They have already determined the charter. Individuals work together to finally come up with a number and use it as a benchmark.
Zhang Chengye looked at the total income and was very happy.
This year everyone is more motivated than last year, and the harvest is better. In addition, there is extra money. The money or food that everyone gets this year will be better than last year. He hopes that it will be like this every year, and every year will be better than every year. , everyone can eat and dress warmly.
He knew that there were quite a few families who couldn't start a family because their money was too small, and their children were too old. Once they got married, it was inconvenient for a large family to live together. Wouldn't they want to move out
I thought about it, but I didn’t have the money to build a house. It’s not wrong to save money for this mud brick house, but more or less it costs money to buy materials.
According to this year, by saving for a few years, you can save money to build a small house.
He thought of such a day, and felt beautiful.
Su Hui didn't know the exact number of tiles fired before, but now that she found out, she also looked sideways.
Xie Rui is capable.
Compared with the current number, the number of finished products at the beginning has doubled several times. Not to mention that many people in the village have used tiles, the amount of export sales is also considerable.
Not counting the number of people in the village, counting by household, each household can be divided into two or three yuan.
Don't think that this is a small number. There are hundreds of households in the village, adding up to thousands. They burn tiles, but they only started in May.
This achievement is inseparable from Zhang Chengye's strong support, but Xie Rui's ability has also been fully demonstrated. It is estimated that the three aunts and six wives will be more diligent when they come to the door. After two years, the results will be stable. He is going back to the city. Disaster.
Will he go back
Su Hui thought about it, and felt a little bit reluctant. Of course, it wasn't Xie Rui, but Xie Rui's things. She exchanged soy sauce for a lot of "specialties" in the capital. After leaving, it was difficult.
It didn't take too long, the calculation was clear, Zhang Chengye distributed most of the food according to the work, as for those who bought the tiles, there was also a conversion, and he calculated the number of tiles he took away, and he knew what he should How much is it.
They were pleasantly surprised to find that it was really not much. Within ten yuan, after deducting it, it would be almost enough to make up another five yuan. The number of rooms used only.
Those who did not receive tiles, such as Su Hui, received nearly four yuan more than last year.
All of a sudden, the accountant was full of people: "I want porn next year!"
"I want porn too!"
"The next one is me, I'm going to cover the other room too..."
At the end of the year, it is also the time for the big guys to hold weddings. At this time, everyone is more free, and so is the host family. They have just distributed food and are relatively affluent.
Zhao Xialan's sister-in-law got married at this time.
It was postponed due to some reasons, and the next good day will be after the food distribution, so I will get together with others and spend a good time together.
Although it is not feudal and superstitious, there are not many people who are not optimistic about this kind of major life event.
Su Hui prepared a jar of mushroom sauce and a jar of sour bamboo shoots for Zhao Xialan's sister-in-law as a congratulatory gift. The person Zhao Xialan married was also surnamed Zhang, and she and Zhang Ping were clearly related. Speaking of which, everyone surnamed Zhang in Li Village is relatives, but from generation to generation, they are almost like ordinary people.
It's not surprising that she gave it. At this time, there is no money for gifts, and they are all for food.
Or a small bag of rice, a bag of dried vegetables, for those who are close, such as Zhao Xialan's sister-in-law, she prepared a pair of towels, because she was bleeding profusely.
Because of the industrial towels one by one, she herself was not willing to buy such a good one.
