The accountants were also very happy. Although Li Dequan was the village accountant, he only received a few yuan monthly subsidy, and the life of the five children in his family was also tight.

"Wenzi is a very particular kid. He promised to give us fish a few days ago, but then he lost his fishing gear. I didn't expect that he would think of us when he eats meat today," the eighth aunt Huang Chunping said with a smile.

"This child is indeed not simple. He is young and mature. He spoke with ease in front of the commune director a few days ago. He also mentioned me by the way. I went to the commune meeting yesterday and was praised. Li Dequan nodded and said.

"Well, if you get closer to the Lao Wu family in the future, the second son of the Lao Wu family will definitely do something great in the future," Huang Chunping said with a smile as she looked at the children who were snatching meat.

In the following days, Li Wen was busy working in the village during the day, and went home at night to grow vegetables and raise chickens in the space. He lived a very comfortable life.

Dang, Dang, Dang, "Every household has brought sacks this afternoon and started to distribute grain," Li Junli, the production team leader, stood at the door of the village committee and knocked on the bell under the big tree and shouted!

This morning, the village party secretary took the whole village's strong labor force to the grain station to hand over the village's public grain for this year by horse-drawn carriage and by hand. Some of the grain was reserved for the production team. The remaining grain will naturally be distributed to the members today.

There are six laborers in Li Wen's family. His father and second uncle have full work points, while mother, second aunt, eldest brother and second brother all have not much work points.

The production team had to make arrangements for grain distribution today and got off work early at noon.

At noon, the family ate something in the yard and hurriedly took the grain bags to the village to collect grain.

When the family arrived at the square in front of the village committee, it was already crowded. It seemed that everyone was waiting for the food to be imported.

Li Wen and others in Sanxing Village have a total of 2,000 acres of irrigated land. In addition to 1,500 acres of fixed grain crops every year, the other 500 acres are used to grow rapeseed or some potatoes and sweet potatoes and other coarse grains.

It seems that there is still a lot of land, but because it is located on a high loess slope, the soil has been seriously degraded after thousands of years of cultivation, and the crop varieties are not good. Coupled with the lack of water, fertilizer and pesticides, the yield is not high. The weather is not very good this year.

The yield of field wheat is only over 200 kilograms.

In recent years, the country has also been in difficulty, and the proportion of public grain has been relatively heavy. Therefore, after paying the public grain and the village's reserve grain, and leaving grain seeds, there is not much left.

It was almost evening when it was the turn of Li Wen's family. In total, less than 300 kilograms of wheat, 20 kilograms of rapeseed, and 100 kilograms of potatoes were distributed. The remainder was some peas, and not much mung beans as other cereals.

Many families had a small share of grain, claiming that the work points were calculated incorrectly, and they quarreled with the village committee. There were also some people who usually ate only half of the grain because their families had too few laborers. As soon as the grain was distributed and returned to the village, most of the sacks were immediately empty.

, the men sat in the wheat field dejectedly, while the women and children cried loudly.

The family was sweating profusely as they carried the food back home. "This queue is really tiring," Li Wen said, wiping the sweat from his forehead.

"The food distribution is not always like this every year. This year our family is quite active. Last year it was already midnight when we got home," said mother Wang Chunmei.

There isn’t much food this year. It’s been several years since there were natural and man-made disasters, and my father smoked a dry flue.”

"Yes, there are less than three hundred kilograms of wheat and some miscellaneous grains. In the autumn, we will divide some corn. If we want to eat it until next summer's harvest, it will probably be too much. Second uncle said after calculation."

"Should our family replace it with some whole grains tomorrow? The less than three hundred kilograms of wheat will disappear quickly. Mother Wang Chunmei looked at her father and said."

"Yes, his uncle, why don't he go to you and Decai's friends to exchange for some coarse grains like last year? After the autumn harvest, the combined grains should be enough to last until next year," the second aunt said.

"If the child's mother and his second aunt don't need it, our family will definitely have enough food next year, and maybe there will be some leftover," the father said with a smile as he knocked out the cigarette pole.

"Have you forgotten that the eldest and second child in our family will have to work in the factory after the new year? By then they will live and eat in the factory, and they will be able to subsidize their families with their wages. Li Deyou smiled and raised his head."

"Oh, I really forgot that his aunt brought over the indicators of the two children some time ago. Our family's Ah Wu and Ah Quan will be eating from the public family soon," the mother Wang Chunmei and the second aunt laughed proudly when they heard this.

"This year our family eats all the wheat ourselves, and we also eat fine grains. In the past few years, eating cornmeal and sweet potatoes every day has made people's throats become bald," the second uncle said with a smile.

Several children clapped their hands when they heard this. Nothing can make them happier than eating white flour steamed buns and noodles.

"Tonight our family will eat fish to improve our lives," the old lady Guo Xiuyun said with a smile as she came out of the kitchen.

After not working in the afternoon, Li Wen used a red-hot sewing needle and sewing thread to make a pair of fishing gear and took a group of children to the village reservoir to catch a few carp weighing more than a pound.

Recently, the fishing gear crisis has passed. Li Wen occasionally goes fishing in the reservoir with homemade fishing gear. Sometimes he comes back empty-handed, but most of the time he still catches one or two.

The young people in the village also followed Li Wen's example and made fishing gear, and even asked Li Wen for the recipe for making fish bait. Therefore, many families in the village have been eating fish at intervals recently.

After dinner, Li Wen came to the backyard. In the past half month, the piglets have been fed bran pigweed for several meals a day. They eat well every day. They have grown very fast and are already nearly 30 pounds. In a few days, we will wait.

After the silage is fermented, you can feed a large amount of silage, which is much more nutritious than simple grass and bran.

After returning to the room and bolting the door, Li Wen returned to the warehouse space. Since Li Wen was reborn, he had grown a lot in size due to adequate nutrition and the egg and milk project. In the past month, his size has increased dramatically. Last night he was in the space.

I measured it and found that it was already 1.43 meters tall.

The newly planted corn in the yard is already half as tall as a person, and the yard is already covered with pumpkin vines. Thanks to Li Wen's manual intervention, pumpkins the size of fists have grown.

The cucumber flowers on the shelf are already full of yellow flowers, and there are more than a dozen cucumbers hanging here and there. Since no bees have been found, Li Wen had to use a few chicken feathers to artificially pollinate the cucumbers and pumpkins. Pumpkins are easy to say and have relatively beautiful flowers.

The big and small yellow flowers of the cucumber took Li Wen a lot of effort.

When we arrived at the front room, the five little rabbits already weighed two kilograms and were already quite big. Dozens of chickens and ducks had also lost their down and sprouted feathers. They were chattering lively all day long.

Dozens of large and small fish swim freely in the small fish pond.

Some time ago, Li Wen laid a layer of soil in the pool, threw some broken bricks and stones, and also got some aquatic plants from the reservoir and threw them in it.

A few days ago, I saw many fish eggs being born under some water plants and rubble. "It seems that the temperature in the space is very suitable for fish growth," Li Wen said to himself with a smile.

Li Wen has not been idle recently. He has written a lot of essays, poems and novels, which he keeps on the table in the lounge. He only waits for newspapers and magazines to respond to his manuscripts before he continues to submit them.

"I'm going to catch bees tomorrow. The honey at home has just been eaten up by Li Tao and some greedy people." Li Wen is going to use this as an excuse to go to the hill in his aunt's natal village tomorrow.

After dinner the next morning, Li Wen said: "Dad, there hasn't been much work in the fields these days. I'm going to go to the mountain behind Xiaoyong's grandpa's house to look for any honey nests. It just so happened that we

The honey at home is gone.”

"I'm going too, let's go to my uncle's house too," Li Min, Li Yong, Li Tao, and the little one Li Juan all raised their hands and shouted when they heard that Li Wen was going to get bees.

"Okay, let's go, but be careful when going up the mountain. Bee stings are very painful. Awen, please take a few little ones and watch them and don't let them run around," said his father Li Deyou.

As he spoke, Father Li picked up Li Juan and said with a smile: "Let's go to the commune with Dad to grind noodles today. There will be delicious food there." The little guy nodded immediately after being seduced by his father.

After dinner, Li Wen and others sneaked away quietly with their backpacks on their backs. We couldn't take this little guy with us because he was still young. They were going to dig out the honeycomb. This little guy can't run fast and could easily get stung."

In the county where Li Wen is located, there are no strange peaks and mountains, and the mountains are just hills with an altitude of several hundred meters. Coupled with people's thousands of years of life, carnivores have long been extinct, and at most there are only a few scattered wild boars, so

Basically no danger.

The group of people are going to Shibei Mountain this time. The altitude of Shibei Mountain is only five or six hundred meters. This mountain is named after a thousand-year-old monument.

The second aunt's natal family is at the foot of Shibei Mountain. The village also farms, but it is close to the mountain and there is less land suitable for farming. The villagers occasionally go up the mountain to get some mountain products and hand them over to the supply and marketing cooperative in exchange for food.

"My uncle is so awesome. He shot a wild boar the year before last and gave us two kilograms of pork as a gift." The little kid Li Yong is a naughty boy, but he admires his uncle very much. He kept flattering his uncle along the way, and he also

I don't know if his uncle can sense it.

"Brother Gazi, I'm here again," Li Yong shouted loudly when he saw several children sitting astride a big tree at the entrance of the village, one of whom he recognized.

"My cousin is here, I have to go play with him," Cui Erga, eight or nine years old, looked at his friends on the tree and said, then slipped down from the tree.

"Xiao Tao, Xiao Yong, you have come to see me," Cui Erga looked at his two cousins ​​and said with a smile.

"Brother Gazi, today I brought my brother Wenzi to dig out the honeycomb," Li Yong whispered to Cui Erga.

"If you dig out the honeycomb, it's a hornet's nest or a bee's nest," Cui Erga said with his eyes shining.

"It must be a bee. The little meat of a wasp is not enough to stuff between the teeth. What can it do?" Li Tao said.

"Ergazi, call all your friends. Who knows the honeycomb? As long as it is larger than the size of a rice bowl, take us there. I will give him a dime. The bigger the honeycomb, the greater the reward." Li Wen knew that he would be rewarded heavily.

There must be a brave man down there, he said provocatively.

"Brother Wenzi really gives you money?" Ergazi immediately jumped up and ran to the big tree and shouted, "Ergou, Ermao, come down quickly. Who knows about the beehive? Brother Wenzi has a reward, just a dime."
