The past is like the wind
There is no need to wait for a long time. The news of the resumption of the college entrance examination will be released by this time next year. By then, they will know whether there is any use in studying.
"If someone doesn't want to study, you can tell me so that I can save some trouble and relax. But if the gap between the person who doesn't study and us is too big in the future, I hope he won't be jealous of us, let alone resent us. After all,
It was he who gave up the opportunity to study."
Huazhi felt that she shouldn't have high expectations for her brothers. They were all from the old Hua family. If the upper beam was not straight, the lower beam would naturally not be straight either.
With grandparents like that, how could she expect anything from her younger brother?
She should treat it with a normal heart.
Whoever Huazhi glanced at shook his head crazily. No one had the idea of 'dropping out'. After all, when I was young, I wanted to study, but my grandparents in Laohua's family wouldn't let me. Now I can study here for free at Huazhi, why not?
Where to study?
Maybe like what Hua Zhi said, we can learn something and achieve something?
Not many people in the Leye production team can read. If they could, they would be better than most people.
Hua Yu felt something was wrong in the atmosphere. When she looked up, she saw everyone staring at her. She nodded awkwardly, "I'll learn too."
Huazhi smiled faintly, "That's good. That's all I've learned today. Now let's go back and rest! It's the same time every day, so don't be late."
After that, everyone went home and washed up.
When Xiao Nan's house was completely quiet, Huazhi and Xiao Nan were the only ones left in the kitchen.
Huazhi stood up and stretched his muscles, "Then let's go! Let's save some money first, and then we can find a carpenter in the village to help us make a small cart! It only needs to be able to push something of 180 kilograms.
We can also make more money during this trip, otherwise it would not be worthwhile at all to make such a small amount of money every day, and it would not be proportional to our hard work."
Xiao Nan picked up the backpack and said, "It's actually quite good. It costs several yuan a day, which is much higher than the salary of people in the city."
The wages of urban workers are thirty yuan a month. When divided evenly, they only get one yuan a day. And their salary is several times that of others. It’s just that they are not stable. If they can earn a few yuan a day stably, then what will happen to them?
At the end of the year, their income is no less than that of people in the city!
When they came to the river, the two of them took turns to catch fish in the water. Every time it was Huazhi's turn, there were fish in Huazhi's basket. It seemed that the fish liked Huazhi better, and they all ran to Huazhi's basket.
After catching enough fish to be sold today, Huazhi asked Xiao Nan to leave quickly to sell fish. Xiao Nan looked at Huazhi and asked in confusion, "Aren't you going back?"
"I'll find some crayfish to eat tomorrow, don't worry! I'll be back in twenty minutes at most." Huazhi waved her hand. She is such an adult, and she is still in her own village. What can she do?
Besides, she already has a lifetime of experience, can ordinary people hurt her?
"Okay, then please pay attention to your safety." Xiao Nan warned uneasily, and then set off with a basket of fish on his back.
Huazhi waited for a few minutes to confirm that Xiao Nan was really gone. Then she went into the water and walked to the place where the taro grew. Then she bent down and started to dig up the taro. The taro did not grow in one place, but in this piece, that piece, and this piece.
When you have finished digging, you have to dig out the next piece.
However, every time Huazhi digs up the taro, she uses her hands to test the size of the taro underneath. If it is smaller than her fist, she will keep it and continue to grow. Only if it is bigger than her fist, she will dig it up.
Huazhi decided to wait until Xiao Nan found someone to make the cart, and then asked Xiao Nan to sell cooked taro at the same time, so that she could earn more money. Fish was hard to catch, but taro was easy to dig.
Just keep searching along this river bank, and you should be able to find a lot of taro.
Huazhi dug up a basketful of taro, cleaned it, and sent it to Xiao Nan's kitchen. Then she came over to catch crayfish. What she just told Xiao Nan was to catch crayfish. If she didn't catch some crayfish, Xiao Nan would definitely
will be suspicious.
It's summer now. Crayfish and crabs come out to look for food at night. They are very easy to catch. They can be found almost everywhere the flashlight's aperture reaches. If it weren't for the fact that business can't be done now, she would have wanted to set up a stall to do business.
You must know that in the night stall behind the university town in the previous life, a portion of crayfish cost dozens of dollars. Just the fresh crayfish cost fifteen or twenty yuan per pound!
Thinking that now she could only watch the money disappear from her eyes, Huazhi felt regretful.
There are a lot of people eating at home, and crayfish are inherently rich in shells and less meat. The small portion is not enough to eat, so Huazhi used tongs to hold two baskets of crayfish, which weighed about twenty or thirty kilograms! It should be big enough.
It was a good meal.
Huazhi poured the crayfish into the wooden basin, poured some well water into it, and then covered it with a dustpan to prevent the crayfish from crawling out and escaping.
After everything was done, Huazhi didn't go to wash up immediately, but sat there in a daze while blowing the cool breeze.
She still remembered that in her previous life, when she was planting rice in the field, she picked up three crayfish and took them home to cook for her children. She had two daughters in her previous life and inherited the Guan family's bad genes.
The daughters are not very good, but they are slightly better than her mother-in-law and sister-in-law, but she is not less angry with her two daughters.
Despite this, she still treats her two daughters as a thorn in her side
No matter how much anger and grievances her mother-in-law and sister-in-law gave her, she endured them.
In this life, she will never marry Guan Qingsheng again, and she will never have these two children.
This way she doesn't have to suffer, and the two children don't have to suffer in this world anymore.
But thinking of them, Huazhi still couldn't help but shed a few lines of tears. How can a mother really be willing to let go of her child? Even if the child is a devil, it is still her child!
But these two children are not worthy of her marrying Guan Qingsheng again.
The cool breeze blew on the flower branches for a while, and I adjusted my mentality. Since I can live again, don't regret the spring and autumn here, but seize the opportunity and live a wonderful life.
Huazhi got up and went back to the kitchen, heated some hot water to take a shower, and then went back to her room to rest. She lay on the empty seat next to Zhou Yulan, looked at the thatched roof above her head, encouraged herself, and then closed her eyes to rest.
In the afternoon of the next day, when everyone was still an hour away from work, Huazhi began to scrub the crayfish with a brush made of straw roots, and then pulled out the shrimp threads.
The temperature is too high during this season, and the crayfish may change flavor if processed too early, so she waits until this time to process it.
