Chapter 68 Understanding the Widow of the Righteous King
Amid Chen Xiuyun's endless warnings, dinner was served at home.
Wild vegetable pancakes with sweet potato and sorghum rice porridge, and a small bowl of shredded radish and pickles.
Wild vegetables can not only be used to make wild vegetable dumplings, they can also be made into various shapes. As long as they are mixed with whole grain batter, they can be formed.
Although Jiang Xinyu was full at the state-owned hotel, she was afraid that Comrade Chen Xiuyun would find out about it, so she drank another bowl of porridge.
"Why don't you eat pancakes?" Jiang Yuzhu asked, and Chen Xiuyun also looked up.
Jiang Xinyu said confidently: "I eat wild vegetables until I feel like vomiting."
The two of them had nothing to say. Who wouldn't eat wild vegetables until they felt like vomiting?
Xiao Hei has been eating wild vegetables recently and has lost weight.
At night, Jiang Xinyu and Jiang Yuzhu squeezed into the same bed, which was very warm.
"Sister, what are you doing these days?"
Jiang Yuzhu was about to fall asleep, and said in confusion: "Get to work."
Jiang Yuzhu fell asleep very quickly, and Jiang Xinyu didn't feel energetic for a few minutes, and quickly fell asleep.
Early the next morning, after the brigade leader's whistle calling the members to go to work sounded, the mother and daughter ate wild vegetable pancakes before going to work.
Although Comrade Chen Xiuyun is a teacher, she not only earns a few yuan a month, but also gets full work points every day she attends class. However, when she is not in class or on vacation, she also goes to work like the other team members in the brigade.
In two months, the winter wheat will be harvested. The field just opened by the brigade last year will be used to grow peanuts and soybeans this year. The other fields not planted with wheat will also be planted with corn, sweet potatoes and other food crops.
Crop yields at this time were generally not high because they still relied on the weather and there were no mechanical tools. At most, there was only a tractor to pull things back and forth and plow the fields.
The tractors in the brigade were bought after the good harvests in the past two years, and they still owe money to the farm and airport.
Jiang Xinyu dug in the ground with a hoe, but after a while she couldn't straighten her back.
God, Jiang Xinyu felt hopeless when she thought about the possibility of returning to farm work to earn work points after graduating from high school this semester.
At least I only work half a day in school, and I earn work points in the brigade, so I can only rest for two hours at noon every day.
Of course, the sun in early March of the Gregorian calendar was not that strong, but Jiang Xinyu was sweating all over.
Jiang Xinyu was really envious when she saw a team of young men helping Su Qingqing fuck her small piece of land while Su Qingqing was sitting on the ridge to rest.
Chen Yi, come quickly, I need you!
Jiang Xinyu let out a silent cry in her heart.
It was a pity that she didn't wait for Chen Yi to arrive until she returned home at noon.
Jiang Xinyu dragged her heavy body into the courtyard, and Xiao Hei excitedly circled around her and Jiang Yuzhu.
Chen Xiuyun said: "Don't go there tomorrow."
Jiang Xinyu's eyes lit up, and she heard Comrade Chen Xiuyun continue: "Tomorrow you two go and plow the private land, and in a few days I will plant all the seedlings I have raised."
Jiang Xinyu's bright eyes dimmed instantly.
Instead of doing collective work, you have to work for your own family. On this land, you can only be surrounded by farm work?
In recent years, only food crops can be grown in private plots, not cash crops. The crops grown in every household's plot are basically vegetables. In summer, there is no shortage of vegetables such as eggplants, peppers, beans, cucumbers.
The radishes and cabbage grown can be pickled into pickles, which can be eaten in jars for a year. Jiang Xinyu’s jar still has a lot of pickles.
"I left cantaloupe and watermelon seeds last year to see how many melons I can harvest this year." Chen Xiuyun mentioned the melon seeds with expectation in her tone.
At noon, there was wild vegetable pancakes with rice porridge and pickles. Before she finished her afternoon work, Jiang Xinyu's stomach began to growl.
Her life is really hard.
While she was crying out in pain, Chen Yi arrived at the end of the field, holding a teapot in his hand, and came to give Widow Wang some water.
"Chen Yi, why did you come back so early today?" an aunt asked while working.
Chen Yi picked up the hoe and started working for Widow Wang who was drinking water. He said: "Recently we went to interview good people and good people, as well as examples of people who know their mistakes and can correct them..."
He was not a talkative person, but he deliberately talked about the events of these days.
Movies are not shown every day. As long as the movie is not shown, he can come back early.
The team members were surprised when they heard it. They knew about good people and good deeds. Someone in their village had been praised before. So what's the point of knowing that mistakes can be corrected?
Mrs. Li who was working there was tensed up. She buried her head and worked even harder.
The team members asked all kinds of questions, and Chen Yixiao said: "There will be a movie in town next Friday night. Go and watch whatever you want. After watching it, you will know what is going on."
Some people regret it, "It costs money to show movies in town. Chen Yi, you are from our team. When will you come to show new movies? You have to take care of our own team."
Chen Yixiao said: "I will definitely strive to let everyone see the newly sent videos within a month." Even if it is to let Mrs. Li put her tail between her legs and be a good person in the future, he will strive to let everyone in the team see the newly sent videos.
Video to come.
Mrs. Li's head pressed even lower. All she could think about was how could she behave when she was so embarrassed that she was so embarrassed? What was so interesting about the movie? You had to watch it! A group of people who had never seen the world just wanted to harm her.
Damn her old lady.
A group of people were chattering away, and even though everyone was working, Jiang Xinyu felt that Chen Yi was surrounded by others.
Why can't he come and work for her when he has time to talk? The villain in Jiang Xinyu's heart is akimbo.
After Widow Wang drank the water, she took the hoe again. Before she could speak, Chen Yi spoke first: "Mom, I'm going to help Xinyu."
Widow Wang nodded, no dissatisfaction could be heard in her tone, "Go ahead."
After Chen Yi left, a woman who had trouble with Widow Wang said, "Even before we got married, Chen Yi was so kind to the girl from the Jiang family. When we enter the door, will your Chen Yi's heart become even more biased?"
Widow Wang glanced sideways at the speaker: "If a man is not good to his own wife, who do you expect him to be good to? I know that my Chen Yi is a filial man, so it is useless for you to be jealous. Do you think you are driving a wedge between the two?
I will be angry with that girl? This quarrel is just because the whole family is angry. How can we live a good life?"
The provocative female comrade curled her lips and stopped talking.
Widow Wang snorted, turned around and worked with her back facing the woman.
In the morning, Su Zhiqing told her that Chen Yi bought Jiang Xinyu a scarf. She felt a little distressed, but not angry because Chen Yi bought her a scarf during the Chinese New Year.
Her son is very filial.
Recalling the past scenes of being beaten hard by her mother-in-law, Widow Wang felt that if she treated her daughter-in-law the same as her mother-in-law treated her, what would be the difference between her and the old woman?
Widow Wang raised her eyes and saw Chen Yi taking the hoe from Jiang Xinyu's hand and starting to work. She curled her lips and changed direction.
Out of sight and out of mind, she felt so distressed even before she even got married. Widow Wang, who "understands righteousness deeply", still felt a little bit bitter in her heart.
