By the time the roof of this room was fixed, it was late at night and time passed so quickly.

There are still so many things that have not been done. For the sake of the small life of the two of them, he cannot go to bed so early and must cherish every second.

Of course Bai Ge didn't want him to bother with it anymore. The days were so long, so there was no rush at this moment. He could do it tomorrow.

Zhang Guoquan refused. He said: "I'm going to see Yang Lei tomorrow. I have a very important matter that I need to consult with him. This is related to whether we can survive."

"What is so important?"

Zhang Guoquan didn't say anything, but said with a smile: "You will know in two days. If this thing can be done, I guarantee to give you a surprise."

After hearing this, Bai Ge had no choice but to give up and go to sleep obediently.

Seeing her entering the house, Zhang Guoquan breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, he still had the thought that he didn't want to sleep, because there was only one bed in the house, and he didn't know how to face his wife in the quiet summer night.

Thinking of this, Zhang Guoquan touched his nose. He was really timid. He was obviously his wife, but he still had to worry so much.

If she was good, she might not have such worries. He was just afraid that Bai Ge would not adapt.

At that moment, Li shook his head helplessly, picked up his bow and walked to the planned yard. He was going to start digging the ground to loosen the soil and scatter the vegetable seeds he brought back from his mother's house in the yard.

You can't eat fish every day, and you can't do it without some vegetables.

After loosening the planned land in the yard, spreading seeds, and lifting an iron bucket to the river beach.

As the iron bucket clanged into the water, the sound was very noisy in the quiet night, startling a flock of birds in the reed marsh.

Zhang Guoquan raised his head and glanced at the dark reed marsh. It was even more difficult to see what was inside the reed marsh at night. He could only see a huge dark green outline.

In such a large reed marsh, there must be pheasants, bird eggs and the like. If he had time, he would have to take a walk in the reed marsh.

The river water was brought up to irrigate the vegetable fields. Looking at the wet vegetable fields one after another, Zhang Guoquan stretched with satisfaction.

He lay down on the car and looked at the starry sky above his head. He liked to watch the stars quietly like this. When he was a child, he and Guozheng often lay on the tall wheat stacks together, just watching and chatting, and unknowingly they would

sleep.

Thinking of Guozheng, he is going to join the army. This kid really has ideals.

The next morning, Zhang Guoquan woke up early, gave Bai Ge a few words, and then he hurried out.

I happened to meet Yang Jianmin who was going out. He also wanted to deliver food to his father at the west end of the village, so the two of them walked together.

But Yang Jianmin didn't seem to want to talk. He kept answering "um" or "ah" along the way, and then walked with his head down.

Distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. Zhang Guoquan wanted to chat with him more, but his perfunctory attitude only made Zhang Guoquan give up.

When they arrived at the west end of the village, Yang Jianmin opened the unlocked courtyard and walked in.

Yang Lei also happened to go out and saw Zhang Guoquan, who seemed very happy.

"Brother Guoquan, why are you here?"

"I'm here to talk to Party Secretary Yang about something." Zhang Guoquan said hesitantly.

"Ah." Yang Lei also looked stunned: "Could it be about your father-in-law again?"

After the last family separation, Old Monster Yang still ignored him. He had offended this elder.

"No, no, no." Zhang Guoquan waved his hands quickly: "What I want to say today is something else."

Yang Lei breathed a sigh of relief: "As long as it's not about your father-in-law, I'm still happy to hear it. Then Brother Guoquan might as well come and hear it."

Zhang Guoquan hesitated for a moment: "Will Party Secretary Yang have time now?"

What is going on? It's so mysterious.

Yang Lei paused his bicycle: "I need to go to the town, but it's not important. I can go to the party."

"Okay, Party Secretary Yang will go to a place with me, and I will tell you on the spot."

Zhang Guoquan's serious look made Yang Lei immediately interested. It seemed that this matter was not an ordinary matter.

Then he patted the back seat and said, "Come up here, show me the way, and I'll take you there."

Zhang Guoquan was not polite. He sat in the back seat and said, "It's right at the river beach at the east end of the village."

When Yang Lei, who was riding the bicycle in front, heard about Hetan, he couldn't help but wonder. Could it be because of the two houses that Zhang Guoquan lives there now?

He temporarily suppressed the doubts in his mind and pedaled the bicycle quickly.

Soon, after passing through the village, we arrived at the east end of the village.

Zhang Guoquan jumped out of the car and said, "Party Secretary Yang, please put the car in the yard first, and we can just walk."

While Zhang Guoquan was waiting to speak, Yang Lei's eyes were already attracted by the scene in the yard.

The clean and tidy yard has squares and squares on the ground everywhere in the open space. Looking at the raised soil in each square, I must have planted something in it.

As for those two houses, the doors and windows are new, and the roof of one house has also been replaced with a new one. It no longer looks like the original leaky roof with holes everywhere.

What he saw in front of him shocked Yang Lei to death. This was not the original dilapidated and dirty ancestral home. It was a place that was uninhabitable and even disgusting at first sight.

I didn't expect that in just a few days, it would become so clean and tidy.

"Brother Guoquan, you did all this?" Yang Lei pointed at the yard and couldn't help but exclaimed.

Zhang Guoquan nodded: "Although the house is dilapidated, fortunately it is a home that can shelter from wind and rain. We can't make Baige suffer."

"Oh, it's amazing, it's amazing. It seems that my original decision was right. I was right about you. You are a good young man."

"Zhi Shu Yang praised me. I should do everything for Bai Ge."

Yang Lei nodded in admiration and moved his eyes to the other roof. Unlike the one next to him, this one was still in its original dilapidated state, with big rotten holes on it.

"This..." Yang Lei pointed to the house and asked.

"Oh, there's no extra straw, I haven't had time to clean it up yet."

"Oh, so that's it. It's easy to handle. Since you are from Yangjiazhuang now and you are in trouble, the village collective has the obligation to help you. I have taken care of this matter. I will have someone deliver it to you in two days."

Zhang Guoquan was a little touched: "How embarrassing is this? Thank you so much, Party Secretary Yang. You have been helping me. I am very grateful."

"Brother Guoquan said that very politely. He said that you are a member of Yangjiazhuang and Yangjiazhuang should help you. I just hope that you will not forget the goodness of Yangjiazhuang in the future."

"Guoquan dare not forget." Zhang Guoquan said sincerely.

"That's alright, I can rest assured about Brother Guoquan's affairs, and I'll leave first."

Having said that, Yang Lei was about to get on his bicycle.

"Secretary Yang, wait a moment."

Yang Lei stretched one leg in the air, turned around and asked: "What's wrong? If there are any other difficulties that need help, please tell me. As long as the village collective can solve it, we will help you."

Zhang Guoquan immediately said calmly: "Speaking of difficulties, there is really something to trouble Party Secretary Yang."

"Oh? You said it." Yang Lei said very boldly.

"At that time, in order to dispel my father-in-law's concerns, I did not choose a location."

Indeed, if Zhang Guoquan wanted the land, Old Monster Yang would never relent and agree to the separation of the families.

At that time, I still didn’t understand Zhang Guoquan’s decision. Even if it was for the purpose of dividing the family, if we don’t have land to eat in the future, we should have more or less, so that our future life can be guaranteed.

But now that Zhang Guoquan brought up the matter of land, Yang Lei was a little confused. Now that the family had been separated, if he asked Old Monster Yang for it again, he would definitely not give it to him.

Yang Lei asked doubtfully: "Yes, without land, how will you and Bai Ge survive in the future? This is indeed a big problem."

"It's not difficult, Party Secretary Yang."

Isn't it difficult? Yang Lei noticed that this kid didn't care about anything. Even the most important thing of eating was not difficult for him. He was really an unpredictable young man.

"Party Secretary Yang, come with me." Zhang Guoquan put his bicycle in the yard and tied it up.

Yang Lei followed Zhang Guoquan with a suspicious look on his face and came to the bank of the river behind the house.

He didn't understand why Zhang Guoquan brought him here. What did this river have to do with crop fields? You couldn't grow crops in the river.
