When I went home on Friday, I didn't have a bicycle, and it took me two hours to walk back. The only thing I could hire was a rickshaw. Ying Xun simply took Rongyu to a bicycle shop. When the people in the car dealer saw two teenage boys coming, they thought they were just here for eye craving, but they didn't expect that the other party really bought a 28 Dagang, which cost 120 yuan.
The dealer looked suspiciously at the two of them: "Didn't you steal money from the family?"
Ying Xun said with a smile, "Of course not. We are students. It takes two hours to go back and forth to the village. My dad asked me to buy it."
He weighed the cloth bag in his hand, opened it, and it was full of books.
The car dealer let out a sigh of relief.
When Ying Xun drove Rong Yu back to the village on his bicycle, Father Rong happened to come back from the small workshop. He saw the two slapping their foreheads, and then he remembered to pick him up. But it is good to buy a new bicycle. The three wheels have to be used to transport goods.
During dinner at night, everyone talked about the shipment to Beijing tomorrow.
The station has already made an agreement, and the contract has been signed. The 500 kilograms of goods will be rented by the next village. As for the freight station in Beijing, there are also people who specialize in short-distance cargo transportation. It's not far to Shunyi, and it doesn't cost a lot of money, but I can't do this in the future, and I have to find a freight company to do it. So this time they not only delivered the goods, but also had a meal with the manager of the Natasha cloth factory to inquire about the next order, find a suitable freight company, and help them pick up the goods from the freight station. It took a lot of time to come here, and they might take a week this time.
Rong Yu asked strangely: "Can't we find a freight company? Start from our town and let them take full responsibility?"
Father Rong shook his head: "There is no freight company in our town to Beijing, most of the freight companies are in the city."
"It's okay, it seems troublesome now. We won't find it troublesome when we get a big order." Ying Xun gave Rongyu a piece of meat and asked him to eat quickly. Recently, the food at home has improved, and Rongyu Finally, there is some flesh on the face. Then he said to Rong's father: "Did someone look at the house?"
All three of them have to go to school, what about the chickens, pigs and silkworms
"Okay, when you go to school, Aunt Huang next to you will come over to help feed and help pick silkworm leaves. I will give her two dollars a day," Rong's mother replied, and they also took the silk at Aunt Huang's house this time. Yes, if you add more than one yuan, your income will increase by dozens of yuan. I didn’t want to ask for money. After all, this is the first batch of silk to be produced, and there will be several batches in the future! But Mother Rong insisted, and paid for everything: "On Saturday night, when the reservoir was released, we had to fetch water for the paddy fields and pull weeds. I have to work hard for you."
Rong Yu patted his chest: "It's okay, leave it to me."
Several people looked at him and smiled.
The next day everyone got up early, moved out the silk that had been made in the small hall, and made an appointment with Uncle Li from the next-door village, and drove a tractor over early. A group of people moved things up. "Boom" out of the village.
Although it is a neighboring village, everyone is familiar with each other. Even if they don't know each other very well, they can be called by name when they meet.
After leaving the village, Uncle Li chatted with Father Rong, and after a while, he asked about collecting silk. You must know that it used to be around five yuan, and only spring silkworms can receive six yuan. But the current prices are mostly six or six yuan, and the better ones can go up to seven yuan. The family surnamed Chen heard that they sold almost 100 kilograms and made an extra 100 yuan. This is the first batch of silk produced. If you produce silk again, you can earn two or three hundred yuan more!
Father Rong didn't know whether to laugh or cry, he originally wanted to close it in a small area and talk about it later, but he didn't expect it to spread.
Uncle Li said that the old Chen’s family knew that he collected all the silk from his family because although his family was a little stingy, they also picked some, but the silkworms were raised really well, and the main thing was to raise silkworms to make a living. There were ten silkworms in the family. , The amount of silk produced at one time is 300 kilograms.
It's not easy for Dad Rong to say much, he just vaguely passed it, but he still released a little information, whether it can be accepted, we will know when he comes back.
Ying Xun washed the rice, put it in a pot and set it on fire, then threw a few sweet potatoes into the fire, and threw some peanuts under the ashes of the fire, and let Rong Yu watch the fire while he went to feed the pigs, silkworms and chickens.
It was the first time since Rongyu burned the roof that he entered the kitchen again. He was a little nervous, and he was afraid that the sweet potatoes and peanuts would be burnt. Disappointed, he thought Rong Rong would be bored sitting and lighting a fire, and would glance at him from time to time!
Ying Xun put the chickens at the end, and picked up some eggs, some of which were freshly laid, grabbed them and ran out, happily said: "Xiao Yu, I'll make egg porridge for you."
Rong Yu asked strangely, "How?"
Ying Xun smiled mysteriously: "You will find out later."
Rong Yu thought it was complicated, but he didn't expect it to be very simple. After the porridge is opened, beat the eggs in a bowl, add salt and oil, add a few shredded ginger, beat the eggs, and then just wash the hot porridge. Although it is simple, it is more delicious than the porridge made from eggs that have been stored for a long time, and the egg flavor is very strong.
Ying Xun made a pot, Rong Yu ate half of it, and now he's full again.
After the meal, the two went to pick the mulberry leaves and came back, and then they started to take out the exercise set given by Xie An and the others. While doing it, Rong Yu wondered, did he forget something
Thinking about it really gave me a headache, Rong Yu asked Xun Xun: "Is there anything else we haven't done?"
Ying Xun recalled that the chickens and pigs were fed, the mulberry leaves were picked, and the silkworms were fed. It was tonight to fetch water for the rice fields. The small workshop is temporarily closed, there is nothing to do!
Rong Yu tilted his head slightly, and sighed softly: "But I always feel that there is something I haven't done."
After talking, bow your head and continue to do exercises. But junior high school was a matter of his previous life. After he was reborn, he didn't recover the memory of the homework he had learned in this life. He stumbled and wrinkled his face.
Ying Xun's homework was also a bit bad, and he wondered if he should take his junior high school textbook again, Rong Yao finally came back.
After Rong Yao finished eating, the two of them dragged him to do tutoring, and he didn't have any time to rest.
The three of them didn't stop doing their homework until almost four o'clock, and continued to make dinner. After dinner, they had to sleep for two hours before going out to grab water from others.
After dinner, the three of them went back to the room, Rong Yao didn't go, so they slept soundly, but Rong Yu couldn't sleep, tossing and turning on the bed, being pressed on the bed by Ying Xun, and then they calmed down.
The two woke up at about ten o'clock in the evening, carrying the small water truck at home and preparing to set off. Although this thing is all wood, it is two meters long and the board is also hard. It is really heavy. I almost didn't lift it up.
Ying Xun was not willing to let Rong Yu suffer: "Don't lift it, use a tricycle to pull it!"
"Can this be pulled?"
"It should be possible, as long as someone supports it."
Ying Xun got the tricycle out of the house, lifted the small water wheel and placed it horizontally on it.
Ying Xun pulled, Rong and supported, and the two walked slowly, avoiding places with many pits, and finally got the waterwheel to the side of the road. Besides them, there were many people in the field who came out to grab water. It was very lively. You could also hear the sound of water from the reservoir rushing down the big channel. It was a very special night.
The two came along the way, and greeted many people, and some people made fun of them, two young men, how could such a small water truck have to be pulled. It made Rong Yu a little embarrassed, but Ying Xun said generously that he sprained his ankle during the day and it was difficult to lift it.
Some people also asked about their parents going to Beijing. Many people heard from the village head that their family might collect silk on a large scale when they came back from Beijing. It was said that many people now go to silkworm houses three times a day. , Nian chattered: "Spit more, spit more, when you turn into moths and give birth to cubs, I will feed them five meals a day."
It completely ignores the daily consumption of a silkworm.
The two unloaded the small water truck by the side of the road, and Sifentian was still some distance away, so two people had to carry it. The rope was tied to the small waterwheel, and the shoulder pole passed through the knot, and the two men lifted it up one after the other. Rong Yu is short, Ying Xun is tall, and behind him, he deliberately puts a long pole. In this way, the force is on Ying Xun's side, which makes him more tolerant and relaxed.
Rong Yu didn't understand the principle either. After lifting it up, he felt that it was lighter than when he was lifting it at home.
Ying Xun was behind. He was tall, so the pole leaned forward a little, and the rope would slip forward, so he had to hold it with his hands. Under the dim light of the oil lamp, the two finally reached the small ditch in the field. The water flowing from the big canal to the small canal is already a bit slow. They must grab the water in the quarter field and the fifth field tonight, otherwise the water will be less and less in the future, and they may have to go to the water for water. Mow the grass.
To reach their fields, the water from the canal has to go through a small canal, about three meters away. The function of the small water wheel is to pump the water from the small canal into the small canal, and then flow into the field.
Before pumping water with a small waterwheel, some preparatory work must be done.
Rong Yu squatted aside with an oil lamp, watching Ying Xun roll up his trousers and sleeves and jump into the water, and put stones under the small water wheel. The water covered his knees, wet his trousers and clothes, revealing the thin muscle texture on his chest, and his tough face was very attractive.
"Why did you stay?" Rong Yu asked unconsciously in a low voice.
Beijing is where Ying Xun should be! Why should you stay
"Ah? What did you say?" Ying Xun fought with the small water tanker, he couldn't hear the whirring sound of the water, so he stood up straight and looked at Rong Yu.
Rong Yu immediately realized what he said, and quickly shook his head: "I didn't say anything, I just wanted to have bugs, so I told you to come up quickly."
Ying Xun didn't believe what he said, he understood Rongyu too well, but he didn't think about asking, and reached out to Rongyu.
Rong Yu held the oil lamp in one hand and pulled the man up with the other. When Ying Xun came up, both of them swayed due to gravity. Fortunately, the oil lamp was covered with a glass cover, so the oil was not swayed.
After the preparations were done, Ying Xun stood at the head of the waterwheel, connected it with two wooden handles, and began to pull. Hula water was pumped up from the small canal and slowly flowed into the fields.
