Last night I walked in and out of the narrow, hot room several times.
Being hot and cold really consumes energy.
When Luo Xuan woke up, it was already sunset, and the sun was lying listlessly on the western plateau.
It was almost dusk.
After getting dressed and coming to the courtyard, I saw that a table had been set up in the courtyard, and a bottle of "Old Yulin" wine was in front of me.
The cold wind is not strong today.
Zhang Xiaoli and Miao Meisha wanted to have dinner in the yard and let the men drink in the yard.
In this way, you can avoid making the cave dwelling smell of alcohol and causing you to have to leave the windows open for a long time to let in air.
"Brother Luo Xuan is up?"
Gao Fei has already finished his work and patted his whole body clean.
Seeing Luo Xuan come out of the kiln door, Gao Fei raised the bottle of wine: "Brother Luo Xuan, let's have a drink? I wonder if there are any other educated youth comrades who can come over and get together?"
When Saibei people drink, they want to drink in an atmosphere. If there are too few people, it will be really boring.
Moreover, there was a lot of mutton stewed this time, which was far beyond what Zhang Xiaoli, Miao Meisha, Luo Xuan and Gao Fei could eliminate.
What's more, Luo Xuan's appetite is not big, and Miao Meisha doesn't eat mutton at all.
——The people in Liao Lao County are very mixed, and their diets are very different: just like they belong to Laku Village, Namu does not eat duck meat.
Nari, on the other hand, doesn’t eat beef.
Hanzhu doesn't eat snakes, and her sister Miao Meisha doesn't eat mutton. It's disgusting.
"Zhang Xiaoli, go yell at Zhu Qianchao, Gan Shuili, Xu Daliang and the others, and see if they are willing to come over and eat together?"
Luo Xuan sat down on the small bench, turned to Zhang Xiaoli who was busy serving mutton and said, "Xu Daliang and the others should be back too, right?"
Zhang Xiaoli smiled and said: "He has been back a long time ago! But he will definitely not come over to eat meat and drink wine."
"That's right. Xu Daliang likes to be competitive. This time, he didn't win the float parade competition as he wished. He probably doesn't have the desire to drink anymore."
Luo Xuan reached out and prepared to open the wine lid.
But Gao Fei snatched him away, and he was fighting to pour the wine.
Luo Xuan sighed: "This float parade, in fact, Xu Daliang probably, like me, doesn't care about this competition in his heart. However,
The members and cadres of our respective production teams value this thing very much and force us to participate."
Zhang Xiaoli smiled slightly: "Not only is Xu Daliang not in the mood to come over for a drink, he is now preparing to beggar his neighbor!"
Just as he was saying,
Outside the yard, there were bursts of "boom, boom, boom" sounds of hoeing.
There was also Gan Shuili's soft voice to persuade Xu Daliang: "Daliang, don't be like this. It's just a small parade competition. If you don't get first place, forget it! We have achieved good results in other areas, why don't we compete with each other?
Is this strong?"
"Please, stop digging."
Gan Shuili said with a hint of crying: "This has made people see it and say that we are narrow-minded and cannot withstand setbacks!"
"you shut up."
Xu Daliang's words were neither sad nor happy: "Everyone immerses himself in doing his own thing and stays away from each other until the end of time. In order to avoid looking at each other awkwardly, you should get out of the way and get out of the way."
Gao Fei was curious and opened the courtyard door and went out to take a look.
Then he turned around and came back, asking with confusion, "The people living next door are also educated youths who came to jump in the queue, right?
The other tall guy, I remember, is called Xu Daliang. A few years ago, our county organized representatives from various departments to visit Guanzhuang Production Co., Ltd.
"Are you having a conflict?"
Gao Fei's face was full of confusion: "Why is he holding a hoe to dig the road between the caves on both sides of you?"
The educated youth resettlement site of the Guanzhuang Production Team and the residence of the educated youth of the Shilipu Production Team are separated by only a small slope, about 20 meters in length.
In order to facilitate the construction of cave dwellings, the members built a simple dirt road between the two cave dwellings.
What Gao Fei saw when he went out just now was Xu Daliang digging a trench with a hoe.
He planned to dig a huge pit 1 meter deep and 2 meters wide on the path between the cave dwellings connecting the two educated youth resettlement sites in China Unicom.
The seemingly fluffy yellow soil now has been frozen hard by the cold weather.
This makes it difficult for Xu Daliang to dig.
But Xu Daliang, who was determined to cut off contact with Luoxuan, even burned a fire with coal to thaw the land above.
To make it easier for him to dig trenches.
Gan Shuili's persuasion was ineffective, so he finally had to turn around and go back to the cave dwelling, taking out his shovel and hoe to help.
Look at her posture,
No matter what Xu Daliang did was right or wrong, Gan Shuili would choose to stand on Xu Daliang's side without any hesitation and carry him all the way until the end.
Luo Xuan also walked out of the yard.
He turned to Xu Daliang, who was blushing not knowing whether it was due to the great effort he put into digging the hole, or because he was angry, and said, "What are you doing, Xu Daliang? Building roads and bridges is a meritorious deed. You just don't do it."
What's the point of digging a road out of a routine?"
Xu Daliang stood up and said
He also sneered in reply: "You clearly know that this time I went to the city, my superiors rewarded our Guanzhuang production team with a tractor.
But you chose to buy two tractors at this time, what is the purpose of it, you don’t know it yourself?”
Luo Xuan sighed: "Morale should be encouraged but not discouraged. The members of the Shilipu production team are very high-spirited.
In this situation, what can I do? If people's hearts are lost, spring will start soon, and all the work will have to be carried out. By then, there will be nothing I can do!"
Xu Daliang snorted coldly: "Okay, whatever you say makes sense. I won't argue with you, and I won't have any contact with you from now on. That's alright, right?"
Luo Xuan laughed and said: "We can compete at work, but privately we are still fellow villagers. There is no need to fall out over work matters and come to my place to drink and eat meat?"
Gan Shuili, who was busy helping Xu Daliang dig the hole, stopped at this time and looked at Xu Daliang eagerly.
This is not just about the sweet water and the greedy for some wine and meat.
Rather, she hoped that after Xu Daliang nodded, the two groups of educated youths would immediately turn their hostility into friendship.
"Not interested in."
Xu Daliang bent down and continued digging: "Doing revolutionary work is not a treat. When our Guanzhuang production team achieves results this year, I will naturally drink three hundred cups at the celebration banquet!"
The Xu Daliang in front of me was actually roasted on the rack:
The water conservancy model of Guanzhuang production has been vigorously promoted and established as a model and model project for regional water conservancy construction.
Now, regardless of whether his conscience approves his model or not, he can withstand the spring flood of Wuding River.
Xu Daliang could only go all the way to the dark side and could not look back.
So no matter what I say to him, not only will it not have any effect, but it will also arouse Xu Daliang's hatred.
"Zhu Qianchao, if you don't come over, the wine will be finished."
Luo Xuan shouted towards the cave dwelling behind Xu Daliang, where the educated youth were resettled in the mountains: "Authentic stewed mutton. You don't need to pay to come over to fight, just bring a mouth."
"Hey, it's coming."
Zhu Ganchao got out of the cave while putting on his cotton-padded jacket, "I've already smelled the aroma of your mutton stew in the afternoon, and I thought you didn't want me to eat it!"
Luo Xuan laughed and said, "Fine and wine do not separate families. Since you smell the smell, come here quickly! Do you still have to wait for others to arrange the dishes and chopsticks for you before you come over and eat ready-made food?"
Zhu Ganchao walked forward while putting on his cotton-padded jacket.
Liu Xiangche came out from behind: "Classmate Zhu Qianchao! Do you still have any class stance? Just a little bit of wine and meat, and you become a capitulator?"
"I'm not a fool if I don't jump up when there's something delicious to eat."
Zhu Qianchao ignored him, "We are all educated youths who came to join the queue. It is normal that the two sides have different ideas about work.
But there is no conflict between us personally! Who can say whether to surrender or not? You didn’t see classmate Huang Xuan. People thought that Comrade Luo Xuan was too busy, so they took the initiative to help!"
Liu Xiangche actually has a crush on Huang Xuan.
It’s just that Huang Xuan’s family conditions are good, her personal accomplishments are high, and she is beautiful.
This made Liu Xiangche, who was ashamed of himself, never dare to confess his feelings to Huang Xuan.
Now that Zhu Chaochao said this, Liu Xiangche jumped up and said: "Zhu Chachao! If you dare to cross that ditch today, I will cut off our ties with you and treat you as strangers from now on!"
"Love it."
Zhu Ganchao was not afraid at all, "I work to earn points and eat, and I don't benefit from you at all. Why should I listen to you and form a clique with you!"
Wine is like character.
During tonight's dinner, Luo Xuan, Zhu Ganchao and Gao Fei drank three bottles of wine.
At the wine table, everyone first toasted.
Then they use dice to play the unique "bragging" game in Saibei, and decide who drinks by winning or losing.
On the wine table, Luo Xuan appeared to be making jokes and making noises. But in fact, he was always secretly paying attention to Gao Fei's every move.
This guy!
He is indeed a good candidate for officialdom!!
I saw that he was having a great time on the surface, but secretly, Gao Fei always maintained his inner sobriety.
When he drinks, it gets on his face.
But he seemed to be blushing, no matter when he was picking up food, pouring wine, or bending down to pick up the dice that had rolled out.
This man's hands were not shaking, his eyes were not blurred, and he said he was drunk and could not drink anymore.
But apart from speaking a little louder, there was no sign of him being drunk at all!
This guy's drinking capacity is truly unfathomable.
Moreover, while drinking, Luo Xuan deliberately asked Gao Fei a few questions.
For example, Luo Xuan asked Gao Fei: When can he help apply for the three-box power account of the cosmetics factory at the Zhimi County Power Supply Bureau?
Often by this time,
Gao Fei would lower his head and ponder for a while, and then answer: Tomorrow, I will go to the relevant leaders of the power supply bureau to try it!
When he says this, he will definitely add another correct sentence: It should be, roughly within 3 days. It will not be more than 5 days. I am confident that I can handle this matter to a certain extent.
His way of speaking is a bit like a veteran in the workplace: he will never say it to death.
Even in his heart, he already had full confidence.
Gao Fei always leaves a small hole for himself in his words.
In this way, no matter what the situation, Gao Fei can always leave himself enough room for maneuver.
——It can be seen that this person is a talented person who can do things, and he is also an official.
I had a lot of fun drinking wine that night, the mutton was also very fragrant, and the specially scrambled eggs for Miao Meisha were also delicious.
But what is puzzling is that Xu Daliang, who lives next door, has won so many honors for their Guanzhuang production team.
And also received a Dongfanghong 54 tractor as a reward.
Faced with such a huge, happy ending of both fame and fortune.
But none of the cadres and members of the Guanzhuang production team came to Xu Daliang's door with anything in hand to congratulate Xu Daliang, or to express even a little bit of gratitude.
This is a little confusing.
The next day.
According to the original agenda, today all production teams in Zhimi County must organize members to hold "swearing meetings" early in the morning.
Then, under the leadership of members of each production team, outstanding member representatives, and production team cadres.
Carrying hoes on one side and colorful flags on the other, everyone must go to the river dam and actively participate in the construction of water conservancy projects.
If the production team is not close to a river, then they have to go into the ravines and artificially create a stream!
Then build dams and diversion canals in that dry "stream"
Let me tell you whether it has any effect. You must have a correct posture and an attitude of actively building water conservancy facilities!
Otherwise, this is probably a sign of not heeding the call and resisting the huge project of building "thousands of ditches and canals" that is being carried out in full swing.
——That’s going to be the boss!
All of a sudden, hundreds of production teams were all in action. The entire river and valleys were filled with colorful flags, loud gongs and drums, and huge crowds of people. It was very lively!
As the Guanzhuang production team that plays a leading and exemplary role, their members have a particularly hard time: they need to break open two to three feet of ice, then move in stones and prepare Sanhe soil to build the dam!
The howling cold wind chilled the steel drill used to cut through the ice to the core.
As soon as the members held their hands, they would quickly lose the precious heat in their bodies.
If the situation is serious, the flesh on the palm will stick to the cold steel drill. If you tear it off hard, it will be a piece of skin!
Even those old farmers who have great experience in construction in winter can avoid letting their flesh and blood stick to the steel drill.
But the low temperature of more than 20 degrees below zero and the sharp north wind whistling along the river bed will ruthlessly tear open gaps one after another on their faces and hands.
If you move a little, bright red blood will ooze from the torn skin wound.
That heart-wrenching pain can only be felt by people called iron ladies. They can grit their teeth and endure it with a strong willpower.
The vast majority of the members could only wrap their hands in towels, cursing in their hearts while pretending to be active in their work.
Different from other production teams,
Only the members of the Shilipu production team did not go to the river for construction, but were busy leveling the site and collecting dead branches and leaves for retting.
In the words of production team leader Dou Jiande: When the frost thaws slightly in spring, our production team will take advantage of the spring plowing.
With two tractors running without stopping, day and night, how can you still worry about not being able to repair the canals?
One is under construction during this season.
One person can dig a ditch of 3 to 5 meters at most every day.
After the ground became less frozen, a tractor plowed over, and the most conservative way was to dig 500 meters a day.
If that's the case, what are you worried about?
In this current season, it is wise to pay close attention to retting!
The members of the production team are busy at work.
However, Luo Xuan sent Accountant Li to the commune to issue a "Travel Certificate" for his business trip south.
Then Luo Xuan settled in with Gao Fei and went to handle the matters that required his help.
Then, Luo Xuan quietly left the Shilipu production team.
