"Tell me, you go out tomorrow and I will repair our pigsty tomorrow."
It's okay to keep chickens in cave dwellings, but pigs can no longer be kept in cave dwellings. When the time comes, Wang Manyin plans to clear out the cave dwellings for people to live in. The two children will grow up soon.
The pig pen at Wang Manyin's house has not been used for many years. The collapsed stones need to be built up, and the roof needs to be repaired to at least prevent it from leaking.
There are not only pig pens in Wang Manyin's courtyard, but also livestock sheds for raising cattle, donkeys, and horses. They have not been used for too long and are all abandoned.
"Can you do it alone? Do you want me to call Shaoan over to help us repair the pig pen?"
"I can build a pig pen. He is the captain of the production team and has a lot to do. The steamed buns are almost ready. Let's eat first."
Speaking of Sun Shaoan, Wang Manyin remembered that Sun Shaoan got into trouble because of the pig feed matter, so he still had to remind him, but it was hard to say whether the "Hammer King" would listen to the advice of his second-rate brother-in-law.
After Wang Manyin's steamed steamed buns of Erhe noodles and braised pork with pickled vegetables, Lanhua made a wild vegetable soup using the wild vegetables she dug on the way back.
Wild vegetables are not only eaten by Wang Manyin's family. Although wild vegetables are not yet more precious than vegetables in later generations, during the lean season in April and May, there are few people in the rural areas of northern Shaanxi who do not eat wild vegetables.
"Lanhua, please eat more. The children can't eat much. There are a lot of steamed buns and pork today." Wang Manyin said as he watched Lanhua only eat one steamed bun.
"I'll be full after eating this. It's already evening now and I don't have to work. Why should I eat so much?"
Even if he knew Lan Hua, he definitely didn't think much about it. Wang Manyin, who had already eaten two steamed buns, always felt that Lan Hua was mocking him.
When eating in rural areas, one has to either eat dry food in the morning or eat dry food at noon. In short, one would not choose to eat dry food in the evening. Wang Manyin is so used to eating dry food every now and then.
The mother-in-law refused to eat, and the child was already full. Wang Manyin was too embarrassed to eat alone, so most of it was left. There was no need to cook tomorrow morning.
After eating, boil water to wash up. The Loess Plateau is arid and water-scarce, so taking a bath is not easy. It would be good to boil some hot water to wipe yourself.
It's just a cave dwelling, and it's inevitable that the gun will go off.
I have experience with orchids. Wash the children first, let the children fall asleep, and then the adults can wash them.
Wang Manyin heard the rooster crow again and got up at dawn. He had to change his body's bad habits first.
Bad habits can be learned as soon as they are learned, but it takes twenty-one days to develop good habits. Some people have to endure it.
After getting up, I still do some exercise, then do Tai Chi, listen to the clucking of the big rooster and its five wives, and then go to the chicken coop to collect three eggs.
The harvest was good, and Wang Manyin was in a good mood. He went back to the house and grabbed two handfuls of sorghum and gave them to the rooster and his wives.
The fact that this rooster is alive is really not because I want to keep it to hatch eggs, but because my family is poor and has no watch, so I want to keep the rooster to crow and use it as an alarm clock.
There is no need to carry water or cook today, just heat up yesterday's food later, it will be much easier.
"System, sign in."
"Congratulations to the host for getting: one yuan of money and five kilograms of millet."
Yes, the system has been relatively user-friendly these days, providing much-needed food. After finishing his work at home and saving some more money, Wang Manyin plans to go to the city to solve the short-term problem of food and clothing before going to production.
The team goes to work.
"Clang clang clang! clang clang clang!"
"I'm going to work, you can take good care of your children at home." After dinner, Lanhua said when she heard the captain ringing the bell to notify him to go to work.
Wang Manyin was like a housewife staying at home.
…
After a week like this, Wang Manyin said to Lanhua who was about to start work: "Lanhua, you can take the cat and dog eggs to work today. I need to go to the county town."
Hearing Wang Manyin say this, Lanhua turned pale with fright: "Are you going to go out for a walk again?" It was really a sin before, making Lanhua think that Wang Manyin would not come back for a few more months.
"Orchid, don't worry yet. This time is different. Food is not allowed to be sold during the Shige Festival. I went to the city to buy food. I will go back today and you will see me back when you get off work." Wang Manyin hurriedly
Finish what you said.
"Is what you said this time true?"
It is obvious that Wang Manyin's personal credibility is really not that good.
"It can't be true anymore. We have captured the little black piggy. I have to leave. How can you come here alone? I will definitely come back in the evening." This piggy is also from the production team, and I won't pay him now.
, wait until winter when centimeters are counted to settle the bill. If the centimeters are not enough, you can wait until the pigs are sold before settling the bill.
After sending away Orchid, who was barely relieved, I packed up a few grain bags and entered the small world.
Wang Manyin locked the door of his house. Even the collapsed wall of the house, which was more than one meter high, could allow children to climb in. Locking the door also meant that there was no one at home. There were fewer migrant populations in the countryside, and the uncles and aunts in the village who did not go to work could
It is impossible to let strangers into the village.
Then, he came to the village committee and said, "Brother Mancang, please open a letter of introduction. I need to go to Yuanxi County?"
"You kid, you've only been at home for a few days. Didn't you say you've changed again? Your words are like farting and you won't change. Why are you planning to run out again? I heard that your family also allocated a pig feed plot and caught pigs.
Zangzhu, if you leave, how can Lanhua be so busy alone?"
Wang Mancang was obviously very dissatisfied, but a letter of introduction was always required. Opening a letter of introduction at least ensured that Wang Manyin would not be caught for running around. Otherwise, even if he didn't open a letter of introduction, Wang Manyin would still run away if he wanted to.
Whether as a relative or as the village party secretary of Gugan Village, Wang Manyin's arrest will cause Wang Mancang to be embarrassed.
"I won't leave this time. Today is different. This time I will come back as soon as I go. You can write the date on the letter of introduction this time." They were helpless. No one wanted to believe in Wang Manyin's credibility.
Although it is a mountainous area, the transportation in Guan Guan Village is quite convenient. Once you leave the village, you can catch a bus to the city, and there are many passing cars. When Wang Manyin goes out without money, he always relies on his words to hitchhike on passing trucks, which costs a penny.
There is no need to spend any money, unlike other villagers who want to save money and choose to walk thirty or forty kilometers.
I was lucky today. I signed in for a bottle of Maotai. I originally planned to spend money to take a bus, but before the bus came, I met a familiar truck driver and had another free prostitute. It was a pleasure.
After arriving at the county seat, Wang Manyin had a clear goal and headed towards various small alleys, twisting and turning, until he reached a private house.
After entering, he saw a capable young man who said, "Wang Manyin, why are you here? What good stuff do you have in your hands?"
