Chapter 471: Supporting Sun Shaoan(1/2)

Tian Futang's sarcastic remarks directly put the Jin family on the spot.

They did not expect that Tian Futang's reaction would be so violent, as if he had dug up their family's ancestral graves.

Just when they didn't know how to reply, Xu Damao could only come out to smooth things over.

"We are all comrades working together. We have the responsibility to make corrections, and if we don't, we should encourage them."

"I will be the host at my place tonight and treat all the branch committee members to dinner."

"Everyone is welcome to come tonight. I'm going to get something from the car. We'll talk in the evening."

Sun Yuting: "Teacher Xu is right, but I just need to help you get this thing."

Tian Futang: "Sun Yuting, what are you doing?"

"Hurry up and find a few people to clean up the cave dwelling on the top of the mountain first, inside and out."

"I'll line up a few girls behind me and go and clean it up."

"Teacher Xu, why don't we go to E's house for tea first? We'll come over after we've finished packing."

Xu Damao followed Tian Futang home, while Sun Yuting went to find someone to work for.

The Jin brothers looked very embarrassed, but in the end it was Jin Junshan who stood up and spoke.

"Everyone should quickly think of ways to help. Tian Futang's attack was too cruel."

"This Teacher Xu has contact with all high-ranking officials."

"Even if he brought it up during a casual chat, our Jin family wouldn't be able to handle it."

"The most important thing now is to find a way to please Teacher Xu."

Jin Junshan and Jin Junwu, the father-in-law of Wufu, went home with ugly faces and called for help.

Sun Yuting quickly found Sun Shaoan, and it took him a long time to catch his breath.

"Shao'an, you and Shaoping take the brooms and quickly go clean the cave at the top of the mountain where the seeds were originally placed."

"Second dad, what's going on? I'm planning to go to the brick factory to make some money this afternoon."

Sun Yuting: "That teacher Xu from Sijiucheng is the owner of the brick factory."

"He is going to stay with us for a while, and Party Secretary Tian has placed him at the top of the mountain."

"Aren't you still thinking about Shaoping and Lanxiang, those two places for free schooling?"

"If you don't go now, when do you plan to go?"

Sun Shaoping: "Second Dad, are you telling the truth?"

"Then I can still have a day off. I just came down from the top of the mountain, and Teacher Xu is going to invite people from the branch to dinner in the evening."

Sun Shaoping: "Brother, let's go quickly. After all, cleaning is rewarded with work points."

"If we can help my little sister get a place at this time, our family can save a lot of money."

...?

When Xu Damao and Tian Futang were drinking tea at home, both groups came to the cave dwelling on the top of the mountain.

Tian Runye and her mother were not at home, and Xu Damao didn't ask.

Tian Futang: "Teacher Xu, what do you think of the addition of a brick kiln in Ermen Village?"

"Are two more kilns being added? Why do you think so?"

"If a kiln cannot cycle, it will have to rest for about 10 days after one firing."

Xu Damao: "Are the bricks available? Are there enough personnel?"

"If we all burn bricks, who will plant the land?"

Tian Futang: "There is absolutely no problem in this regard. It used to be after the autumn harvest."

"Everyone keeps the cat Dong in the cave. If we build a kiln, many people will have something to do to take care of Dong."

Xu Damao: "Money is a trivial matter. I'll go to the brick factory tomorrow to see and talk about it."

While they were talking, Tian Runye and her mother came back from outside.

"Teacher Xu, you are here."

"Well, come and see the brick factory. Are you going to pick wild vegetables?"

"Yes, my mother told me to pick some garlic and pickle it for winter consumption."

"Maybe because it hasn't rained yet, the green onions are not big, so we picked something else."

Xu Damao looked into the basket and saw that there were many kinds of them.

The one above is sand mustard, which is called sand mustard locally.

There is a very famous home-cooked meal in Yuanxi County, which is rice dumplings mixed with rice dumplings.

Gray stripe is also called gray cabbage and gray rapeseed. In ancient Chinese, it is commonly seen as "Terbula terrestris soup" and "Terbula terrestris does not succeed", which refers to it.

There is also the most abundant type of bitter herb, which people in northern Shaanxi call field weeds. It can be found everywhere in fields, roadsides, and cottages.

Bitter cabbage is a herb that can be used as a treasure throughout the body. It has the effects of clearing away heat and detoxifying, cooling blood and stopping bleeding, removing dampness and lowering blood pressure.

Cold bitter vegetables without conditions, bitter vegetables with conditions, and dumplings stuffed with pork are considered delicious.

Xu Damao: "They are all good things, especially these bitter herbs."

"If you add some pork to make dumplings, they will taste really good."

Tian Futang: "That's hard to say. Let's eat dumplings stuffed with pork and bitter vegetables in the evening."

Xu Damao: "Let's talk about it some other time when we have the chance. Didn't you treat me tonight?"

Tian Runye: "Teacher Xu, are you treating me to a treat?"

"Well, because of school issues, too many people asked me to intercede, so I had to come to your place to hide."

"I'll treat you tonight and get to know everyone."

Xu Damao's two words immediately stopped Tian Runye from asking for a quota to help Mr. Sun settle down.

Tian Futang: "After putting down the wild vegetables, go to the top of the mountain and help Teacher Xu tidy up the room."

The two of them were chatting and looking at the time.

Xu Damao drove Tian Futang to the open space in front of the cave dwelling on the top of the mountain.

After hearing the sound, everyone in the courtyard came out.

Good guy, there are really a lot of people, but they are all in their own way.

Brother Sun Shaoan, Sun Yuting and his wife, Tian Runye and her daughter were surrounded by several young people.

Jin Junshan and Jin Junwu were surrounded by men and women, and they had the largest number of people.

Xu Damao: "Thank you everyone for coming to help. We must eat and drink well tonight."

"Everyone, come and help unload the car. We'll start cooking right away."

Xu Damao saw the rear door open and a group of people helping to unload the car.

Because his luggage, except for various ingredients, is all small boxes.

No one knew what was inside, they were just curious.

The people coming from these forty-nine cities must be bringing something extraordinary.

Shuangshui Village still has no electricity and relies on lanterns, candles and flashlights to survive.

When Xu Damao came, he had already considered this situation.

He bought a very practical battery from the system store, as well as a light bulb suitable for this era.

When he instructed a few young people to carry the ladder to the wall to fix the outdoor lights.

Tian Futang: "Teacher Xu, your light bulb seems to be in vain. Our village has not yet received electricity."

"There is electricity. I brought it."

"What's more, you brought electricity? Can you still carry it with you?"

Xu Damao: "It's the same principle as a flashlight, but in a different way."

Men gathered around Xu Damao to see how he could make these light bulbs light up with electricity.

The women were all cooking, and the ingredients Xu Damao brought were very rich.

When cooking, you can always hear the sounds of these women and aunts swallowing their saliva.

Under Xu Damao's command, light bulbs were installed in several houses, entrances, courtyards, and toilets.

The final switch controls are all placed on Xu Damao's kang head.

Jin Junshan: "Teacher Xu, it seems that you didn't bring a quilt. Our family still has a new one. I'll bring it to you right now."

Xu Damao: "Thank you. I brought the bedding with me and will put it down when I go to sleep."
