It's not enough to just have meat and vegetables. There are also white flour steamed buns that you can make at will.

After finishing the meal, Fangyuan called everyone together and took out fourteen red envelopes from his pocket.

"Come to Zhao Yang, I'll give you one first."

"Ah! Captain, what's going on?" Zhao Yang looked at Fang Yuan in confusion and asked.

"You all left home and came here. I am the captain, so I am your parent. Today is the Chinese New Year. I will send you a red envelope. After the Chinese New Year, the weather will be nice, so I can go to the commune to buy some things I like."

"This..." Zhao Yang scratched his head, not sure whether he should answer it.

"Okay, stop inking, take it." Fangyuan said, handing over the red envelope.

"Okay! Thank you, captain."

"polite."

The reason why Fangyuan sent Zhao Yang first was because Zhao Yang was the vice-captain and took the lead.

So after Zhao Yang was handed out, it was just a few girls, and then we talked about the male players.

Okay, after distribution, Fangyuan asked Zhao Yang and Shi Jianxin to bring two braziers and place them under the Eight Immortals table. Everyone gathered around the Eight Immortals table to eat peanuts and melon seeds.

Today is New Year's Eve, and we have to keep cotton-padded jackets on New Year's Eve. Although it is not really possible to keep watch all night, it is still possible to keep it until 11 or 12 o'clock.

Anyway, there's nothing going on now. The best thing to do is sleep a little longer tomorrow morning.

To put it bluntly, there are only two days to celebrate the New Year and the first day of the new year. One is the end of the year and the other is the beginning of the year. After these two days, the year is basically over.

Rural areas are more particular. In rural areas, the New Year is not celebrated until the fifteenth day. The reason for this is because there is nothing much going on in rural areas.

You wouldn't dare to think about it in the city, because you usually start work as late as the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, and many even go to work on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year. Of course, there are some who don't have holidays.

Fangyuan and the others are in the countryside now, so of course they celebrate the New Year according to the countryside.

After eating dumplings on the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, Fangyuan took them and went to the village to pay New Year greetings.

However, Fangyuan and his friends are different from others in that they greet the New Year with nothing. They eat wherever they go, but Fangyuan and the others always bring food with them.

There was no way, because no one had anything to entertain them, so they could only bring something and share it with everyone.

You must know that the First Team is very popular. No matter whose home they go to, they will be warmly received. This is because basically everyone in the village has received assistance from the First Team.

This winter, whenever someone's home is short of food and clothing, a team of people will show up at that home, bringing them clothes, sweet potatoes, and sometimes some cornmeal.

However, there is very little cornmeal. This does not mean that Fangyuan is reluctant to give it, but that the cornmeal is too conspicuous.

Give some sweet potatoes, and give them a little each time, and basically there will be no suspicion.

The main reason is that no one's family is helped by the first team, and they don't go out to say it. In this case, everyone thinks that the first team only helped their own family.

In this case, there wouldn't be many. Fangyuan also grasped everyone's mentality and asked the team members to deliver them.

After entering the village, everyone separated. There was no way, there were too many people, and if we went together to pay New Year greetings, we probably wouldn't be able to get around in a day.

There is no problem if we separate. On average, each person only needs to go to two or three houses, and leave some melon seeds, peanuts and candies at each house.

Of course, we also have to say a few auspicious words, and finally meet up with the second team and give the remaining things to the second team.

New Year's Eve, Yuan Yuan brought back twenty kilograms of peanuts, melon seeds and candies, and till now, he has not eaten even a fifth of them.

This time Fangyuan asked everyone to take out most of it, distribute some to the children in the village, and then give the rest to the second team. No one had any objections.

The second team has the hardest time, although the food they share is similar to that of the villagers. Don’t forget, the second team is all young people!

The average villager also weighs fifteen pounds per person, but there are old people and children. How can the old people and children have the same appetite as the young people?

To be honest, if it hadn't been for the first team to come to the rescue, I don't know if the second team would have been able to go there this year, and a lot of people would have been starved.

The end of the year passed quickly, and spring arrived in a blink of an eye. Spring has come, and everything revives. On the road to the commune, green buds appeared on the trees on both sides.

"I had a little donkey, but I never rode one. One day, on a whim, I rode it to the market. I held a little leather whip in my hand, and I felt quite proud..."

Yes! Fangyuan is going to the commune today, and he is going there on a donkey.

As soon as the weather got warmer, Fangyuan went to the commune and came back with a little donkey.

In Fangyuan's words, he bought it, and the team members had no doubts. After all, Fangyuan bought too many things, so it was not unusual to buy a little donkey.

After buying the little donkey back, Fangyuan quickly made a saddle and tied it to the little donkey. When nothing happened, Fangyuan would ride it out for a walk.

One thing is that others ride forward, but Fang Yuan rides backward, that is, he lies face back on the donkey.

Not to mention that this little donkey has such a good temper, it would be better to say that Fangyuan got a saddle and put a deck chair on the little donkey's back.

No matter whether Fangyuan was lying on his back or on his side, the little donkey walked steadily and never lost his temper.

Of course, this is just Fangyuan, others can't. Except for Fangyuan, no matter who gets up, they will be thrown off for you.

This makes the team members feel envious and helpless.

Fangyuan reached out and patted the little donkey's neck and said, "I'll take a nap first and go directly to the market."

"Um Ang~ Um Ang~ Um Ang~" the little donkey brayed a few times and continued to move forward.

This little donkey is a bit like Fangyuan, as if it is not in a hurry for anything. For example, it walks, neither fast nor slow, just step by step. It is impossible for it to run.

Of course, what this means is that when Fangyuan is on his back, he usually doesn’t go out, and Fangyuan doesn’t tie him up, just let him run outside.

As long as Fangyuan whistles, this guy will rush up directly. Even the door can't stop it, and it will be opened with a single hoof.

Fangyuan said he was sleeping, but in fact he was just squinting his eyes to take a rest, not really going to sleep.

Feeling the little donkey stop, Fangyuan opened his eyes, and at this time, he had already arrived at the market.

Fangyuan jumped off the little donkey and prepared to take a walk. The little donkey followed Fangyuan obediently.

The little donkey didn't wear a rein, he didn't even wear a rein at all, and he didn't need to wear one, because he only followed the circle.

To put it bluntly, it means being obedient.

When Fangyuan walks, it goes away, and when Fangyuan stops, it stops. It can be said that it never leaves.

Spring has just begun, and there is nothing for sale in the market yet. To be precise, there are no vegetables yet.

After turning around and not finding what he wanted, Fangyuan left.

Then we came to the supply and marketing cooperative, went to the supply and marketing cooperative and bought a few kilograms of oil, then went to the vegetable store to buy some radishes, and then went back.

There is no way! Now is not the future, it does not mean that you can buy whatever vegetables you want. You can only buy what is available in the fields.

When we got home, each member of the team was picking up grass in the field with a basket and some shepherd's purse.

Shepherd's purse is a good thing! Not only can it be used to make dumplings, but it can also be used as a green vegetable for eating noodles and stir-fries.

Fangyuan's favorite thing to eat is shepherd's purse soup, which is thick and thick with some noodles added to the soup. It tastes particularly delicious.

"Captain." Seeing Fangyuan coming back, these guys put down their work and ran over.

Fangyuan jumped down from the little donkey, took down the things, patted the little donkey and said, "Go!"

The little donkey ran away with a clatter. Fangyuan turned around and said, "Don't look at it. I didn't buy anything."

"Uh! Captain, are there no dishes yet?" Shi Jianxin asked with a frown.

I have been eating radish and cabbage for several months, and everyone has been injured.

Fangyuan shrugged and said, "No, not just in vegetable shops, but I went to the market and found none."

"Oh! I have to eat radishes again." Looking at Fang Yuan carrying a bag of radishes, Zhao Yang sighed and said.

"Okay, it would be nice to have carrots to eat. Let's go see the second team." Shen Yuping came over at this time and said.

Shen Yuping is responsible for cooking. She has long had objections to everyone. She complains that radish and cabbage are not delicious every day. Doesn’t this mean that she is not good at cooking!

Zhao Yang scratched his head and said quickly: "I'm just talking, don't be angry."

"Hmph! I should let you go to the second team to stay for a few days. You will never complain again in the future."

Hearing what Shen Yuping said, everyone quickly shut their mouths and joked that they would go to the second team even if they were killed.

"Okay, let's go to work! We have meat for lunch today." Fangyuan patted the sack containing the radishes.

Yes! On the way back, Fangyuan took out a piece of meat from the space, wrapped it in oil paper and put it into a sack.

"Is there meat to eat?"

Everyone's eyes lit up and they quickly looked at the sack containing the radishes.

"Stop looking and go to work. This morning, each person will prepare three baskets of grass for the little donkey. If anyone doesn't have enough, there will be no meat for lunch."

"ah!"

Let's see who runs faster now. As soon as Fangyuan finished speaking, there was no one around except Shen Yuping.

"I'll do it! You bring up the oil."

Seeing Shen Yuping going to carry carrots, Fangyuan quickly stopped her.

This is half a sack of radish, weighing sixty or seventy pounds. Although Shen Yuping can carry it on her back, Fangyuan can't let her be carried!

It doesn't matter if he's not here, but since he's around, there's nothing you can do to let a girl do it.

Fangyuan helped Shen Yuping carry the radish into the kitchen and then went directly into the house.

After returning to the house, Fangyuan took out a pen and paper and wrote a letter to his family, mainly asking if there was any news about Li Yanran at home.

It is now 1971, and Fangyuan is already nineteen years old.

Fangyuan doesn't think about anything else right now, she just hopes that she can go back as soon as possible.

According to Fangyuan's original idea, he would return to the imperial capital when he was twenty-four years old, that is, seventy-six years old, but now he has changed his mind.

What he is thinking now is that the sooner he can go back, the better. It is best to go back now. There is no other way, he is in a hurry now!

The most important thing is that Li Yanran's whereabouts are unknown now, and he doesn't know what the situation is. He wants to go back and take a look.
