After the operation of Sun Yuting and Tian Futang, the old sows from the second production team were sold, and they no longer considered helping the members to breed piglets. They freed up the empty cave dwellings and used them as classrooms to set up a junior high school in Shuangshui Village.
But Sun Shaoping and Tian Runsheng, how could they really teach junior high school? They didn't understand it themselves.
The final arrangement was that Sun Shaoping read a lot of novels and reluctantly taught Chinese. The government-sponsored teacher Yao Shufang had a good level of mathematics and could teach mathematics and other physical, chemical and biological subjects. Shuangshui Village was treated as if it did not exist.
The purpose of opening the junior high school class in Shuangshui Village is to help Tian Runsheng and Sun Shaoan find their jobs, and to help take care of the half-year-old children in the village during the slack time, so that the children can learn more or less some knowledge.
Lanxiang and Jinxiu, children who are going to high school, of course still have to work hard to go to the Stone Ge Festival.
It can be said that the junior high school class in Shuangshui Village does more harm than good. Not only does it increase the expenses of the Shuangshui Village brigade, but during the period when Sun Shaoping was the teacher, all the children in Shuangshui Village went to junior high school in Shuangshui Village, which also delayed the real learning talents.
's children.
Of course, this was a decision made by Tian Futang and Sun Yuting, and it cannot all be blamed on Sun Shaoping's low level.
"It's good to be a teacher, and I didn't go to high school in vain."
Wang Manyin also said it out of conscience to make Lanhua happy.
"It's not just Shaoping who has a happy event, Xiulian is also pregnant now, and Shaoan is going to be a father soon."
"This is considered a happy event. When are we going to Shuangshui Village? Bring some eggs to Xiulian. If you are pregnant, you can't eat enough sorghum, but you also need to supplement some nutrition."
Hens lay eggs, which are directly related to temperature and sunshine hours. In order to have eggs at home, Wang Manyin also put in a lot of effort. He hung straw curtains in the cave where the chickens live. Although the electric lights were not connected, he also hung kerosene lamps to replenish them every day.
Sunshine, supplement food and cabbage from time to time.
The egg production of Wang Manyin's hens is not greatly affected by winter. The supply of eggs at home is tight for a few days, so sending some to Xiulian is not a big problem.
Orchid is not a selfish person. Of course, he has told many people about the method of hens laying more eggs.
But there are not many people who follow this example. There are ways to keep warm. Feeding food and wasting kerosene. Producing more eggs does not mean making more money. People who are better off would be more willing.
This year, when the settlement was made at the end of the year, Guan Gu Village was a lot happier. One centimeter of Gu Guan Village suddenly became worth a lot.
There are no more owed households, and families with a large labor force can get more than 200 yuan. However, since children now have to live separately after they get married, the family does not have too many strong laborers. Wang Manyin's family also received more than 100 yuan.
In addition, the family can sell a pig, a sheep, and a few lambs at the end of the year, and the family's apparent income is already considerable.
"Lanhua, let's tidy up the two cave houses at home next spring."
"We live quite well now, why are we in such a hurry to clean up the cave dwelling?"
"Why, it's great. It's so lively to live together as a family. The cat's eggs and the dog's eggs are big, so they should sleep by themselves. Moreover, the walls of the cave dwelling we live in now have fallen off, and the walls need to be painted.
It’s time for the doors and windows to be painted.”
Orchid is not good at making these decisions, and he doesn't have high material requirements. If he can have enough food and clothing, he has no pursuit. It's just a discussion. Wang Manyin just informed Orchid from the perspective of respect.
Although the special period has passed, this Spring Festival is still not much different from the previous ones.
After the new year passed, Wang Manyin first went to Wang Mancang to apply to buy wood. After buying the wood, he went to a neighboring village to find a carpenter and started custom-making doors and windows.
Carpenters are also farmers. Nowadays, there are not many people making cave dwellings and not many people making furniture. Wang Manyin doesn't need to wait too long for the two doors and windows.
The biggest expense in repairing a two-hole cave dwelling at home is the two doors and windows. The wood in northern Shaanxi is expensive, and it will cost nearly 300 yuan in total.
Although carpenters are also farmers, they can take leave when they have work to do. How can you earn cents as a carpenter? The master carpenter gave Wang Manyin a guarantee that the two doors and windows can be built in half a month.
Because there is a shortage of wood in northern Shaanxi, the number of carpenters is naturally lacking. However, there is no shortage of skilled masons in Guan Village. The strong laborers are still busy at the infrastructure construction site. Wang Manyin can only do the preliminary preparations first, buying white ash and other various materials.
The materials were pulled back with a canopy bed.
"Manyin, when are you going to start painting the cave dwelling?"
Wang Manyin just met Wang Mancang once and was stopped to talk to him.
"It depends on the situation. We have to wait for the infrastructure project to be completed. We can't delay spring plowing. Apart from these two periods, we can only have manpower. Brother Mancang, do you really want to come to our house to help?"
"You think I'm joking with you! I'm also a good bricklayer."
"It's better not to use it, Brother Mancang. You are also the village party secretary. How can I ask you to help our family with the mason's work?"
"You guys really don't need my help. People in the village are still at the infrastructure construction site. I heard that you need to paint the two cave dwellings at home. Many people asked me to send you a message, saying that I would come to your house to help."
Wang Manyin's actions were not small, and the news that he was planning to repair the two-hole cave dwelling quickly spread throughout the village.
Although the strong laborers were fed and housed at the infrastructure construction site, they did not leave the Shigejie Commune after all. They still had to go back to Gugan Village every now and then, and the news naturally spread back to the infrastructure construction site.
"Then I, Wang Manyin, would like to thank you all for thinking about me. I will be sure to have enough wine and food when work starts."
Someone offered to come over to help, and Wang Manyin also figured it out. Because last year, the village settled at the end of the year, a lot of extra money was paid out. The reason was the green storage technology that Wang Manyin brought back. The villagers were simple. Some people were grateful to Wang Manyin and wanted to come over to help. It's not surprising.
.
Even if some of the villagers are unsophisticated and arrogant, Wang Manyin has the core technology of Qingzhu. If his family wants to raise sheep, they will need Wang Manyin, and they will want to come to Wang Manyin's house to help.
"Man Yin, if you haven't set a time yet, I'll help you set one."
"It would be best if you could help me set a time. As the village party secretary, you know the situation in the village best and the time you arrange is the most reasonable."
"When the infrastructure construction site is completed and spring plowing begins, there will be a few days of less busy time in between. Your family will just paint two holes of the cave dwelling and install the doors and windows. There will be two days less people, and it will be over after one day less people. Set this time.
good."
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
"I'll help you contact the manpower. You just have to do the logistics. I've been working hard these days to make more flour. They're all here to help. Food can't be bad."
Calling me brother every day is not in vain. Wang Mancang saves Wang Manyin a lot of trouble.
"I don't care about anything these days when I go home. I just grind white flour. Those who come to help eat white flour and steamed buns. The vegetables are meaty and the wine is enough."
