Chapter Eighty-One: Spring Seeds

Sure enough... "Sister Dingyu, you must have learned more than me! After all, you are older than me, so there must be no problem..."

"Damn it, if you want to supervise my studies, why don't you just say so!"

Ever since Ding Yu said that he would send Erni to school next year, his uncle no longer objected to studying at home. He did not object, and Chen Shenzhong was even more active in self-study than Ding Yu. He learned by himself and urged Ding Yu to follow suit.

After being exposed by Tengyu, the child did not deny it and scratched the back of his head, "Sister Tengyu, don't listen to those old women in the village who said that it is useless for girls to go to school. Only by going to school can you have the opportunity to go to the city and have a chance to work.

Not only Erni has to go to school, but you also have to go to school if possible, otherwise, you will be trapped in this ravine for the rest of your life."

Should we say that the future boss is a visionary? If the boss hadn't said this, a seven-year-old child would have thought he had met his colleagues - they were all wearing tender shells!

"Of course I know, so there's no need for you to worry. However, don't get too close to them. After all, your identity is sensitive, so some things should not come to light. If they ask you to do something, you have to think clearly about it, and you can't implicate yourself."

A child who came to the village when he was less than five years old, even if he had learned to read before, would not be able to recognize too much. Chen Shenzhong discovered this through contact with the decentralized people who lived near him. But she didn't say much, even if

As a friend, you can't interfere with his right to make friends. This is how Tengyu behaves.

Chen Shenzhong listened to the advice and nodded, "I know Sister Ding Yu, I'm paying attention! I'm very clear about dealing with them. Even if one of my children is accused, there won't be any big problems. The only ones that will have problems are

them."

I went home and cooked a meal and waited for my uncle to get off work. Then my uncle came back and told me that sweet potato seedlings had begun to be cultivated in the village.

The village started cultivating tench. The next day, I went into the mountains with Mr. Fang to find a piece of land with good sunshine, dug a rectangular piece and cultivated the picked sweet potatoes.

While waiting for the sweet potatoes to emerge, the tench digs water channels. This is a long-term project, and the tench does not do it quickly. While digging, they also collect grass to feed the rabbits and wild vegetables to feed the pigs, without any delay.

When you are tired of digging, go check the traps everywhere. Nowadays, there are more traps dug, and there will always be one or two traps that are harvested every day. However, as time goes by, animals will also learn to be smart, and there will no longer be anything in the old traps.

Just look for a new place to dig.

Therefore, Ding Yu’s daily workload is not small. He is so busy that he feels like there is not enough time from dawn to dusk. Even without modern mobile phones and the Internet, he feels that there is not enough time, but it is much more fulfilling than browsing on a mobile phone.

The sweet potatoes planted in the ground need to be watered every day so that their teeth will grow quickly. When the sweet potato seedlings are old enough to be cut, the chicken seedlings will lose their appearance and grow hard wings.

At this time, the seedlings in the village can also be planted in the ground. During the busy farming period, the children in the village can no longer be idle. Ding Yu is already nine years old, so she has to go to work, and seven-year-old Chen Shenzhong cannot escape. So during the busy farming period

They can no longer enter the mountain, and everything in the mountain will be left to Fang alone.

Only then did Ding Yu realize that she was really out of numbers. There were too many arrangements and not enough manpower.

But it was useless for her to regret it now. She could only worry about it while participating in the spring plowing.

In order to catch up with the solar terms, in an era when there was no mechanization and farming relied entirely on manpower, it was normal for men, women, old and young to go to the fields together to rush for planting and harvesting. The scene was grand and worth remembering. Because in a few years, this kind of work will be full of hope and enthusiasm.

The scene is hard to see.

Even the cadres who had been sitting in their offices talking in bureaucratic tones all day had gone to the fields and stood on the ground pointing, no longer shrinking in the bright sun.

"Well, it's good to be an official. We work very hard here, and people stand there and watch us do it, smoking cigarettes, and having sex. Even if I stand there all day, I don't feel tired."

An old woman who was assigned a piece of land with Tengyu looked at the land with envious eyes from time to time and discussed it with the people around her.

"Hey, I don't know a single Chinese character, so you can't even be an official!"

"Didn't I just suffer the consequences of being uneducated? Otherwise, I wouldn't be able to be a big leader, and I wouldn't be able to be a women's director? And what's wrong with Han Caixia!"

Han Caixia is the women's director of the village. Her education level is...the third grade of elementary school.

In rural areas, being able to read and write one's own name is a big deal, but most people don't even know their own names.

"Hey, do you want to send your second child to school this year?"

"Why go to school? Just send the eldest to the second child. The third child is always looking for trouble. He still doesn't study hard. He can't even write his father's name after half a year of school. It's a waste of money. I'm going to buy a pen today.

I’ll buy a notebook tomorrow and erasers the day after tomorrow. I don’t think I’ll learn anything..."

"It's almost time for your eldest daughter to talk to someone else, isn't it? Is there anyone suitable? My mother's family does not have a good offspring..."

Rural women just talk nonsense, talking here and there, and in just a few sentences they have already talked about two or three topics.

When she got home from work at noon, Erni steamed steamed buns, stir-fried rabbit meat and dried eggplant, and added a shredded radish pickle. It was delicious with rice.

Tengyu went to work, so my brother-in-law took care of Erni, otherwise Erni wouldn't be able to be at home. During the busy season of spring planting and autumn harvest, anyone who could only move or breathe would have to go to the fields, not to mention taking care of the children at home.

At this time, the children are not so delicate. They can be tied with a piece of cloth on their back or put into a basket and taken away to the fields.

"Sister, let my uncle stay at home in the afternoon while I go to the fields!" Erni discussed while holding a piece of cornmeal and nibbling on it. "Although my uncle helped me with my work, those people are not kind-hearted. They are all working hard but not doing their best."

Yes, with such a wasted effort like my brother-in-law, I must be watching him to prevent him from relaxing. The work assigned to him is also very tiring. We still have land in the mountains to cultivate, why should we let my uncle do this kind of wasteful work? Anyway, in the end

They must be scored according to my age, so why not go up and get an easy job?"

It was the first day of work today, and Erni only remembered this incident when she was at home, so she wanted to change it back.

This is collective labor at this time, and there will definitely be people who work hard but don't contribute, or who are cheating and cheating. Everyone knows this. But my brother-in-law doesn't let him.

"I usually go out, but now I hide when there is a shortage of people to help. The villagers are definitely not willing to do it. Don't cause unnecessary trouble. This is just for this period of time. It's okay. I am young and it is the time to help.

"

My brother-in-law is a cautious person, and he will stay out of trouble as long as he can.
