Tian Shao returned home and bumped into Li Guihua when he arrived at the door.
Li Guihua said with a smile: "Da Ya, Da Ya, the fields are going to be divided. The fields are finally going to be divided. From now on, we no longer have to work, the output will be directly assigned to each household."
Tian Shao understood why she was so excited. For people of Li Guihua's generation, land was the lifeblood. However, she reminded Li Guihua and said, "Mom, even if the household quota is guaranteed, you and dad will not be able to do heavy work anymore.
"
There are no machines now, so plowing, sowing, and transplanting are all manual operations. Rushing to harvest during the summer harvest can cost a person half his life. It is absolutely too much for the bodies of the couple.
Li Guihua was so happy that she forgot that Tian Shao had not allowed them to farm. But she soon said: "With five people in our household registration, we should be able to get five or six acres of land. If we give one hundred catties of grain to one acre of land a year, that's not enough."
It can collect five to six hundred kilograms, which can feed two people."
At home, Tian Dalin and Erya have jobs and eat commercial grain, so their household registrations have been transferred to the county. Now the children's household registrations follow their mother's, so they are also registered under Erya's household registration. After Tian Shao and Liuya were admitted to college, their household registrations moved to Sijiu.
City, so now there are only Li Guihua, Nie Suozhu, and three or five people in the Tian family's household registration book.
Tian Shao asked: "Mom, how much food can be harvested from one acre of land now?"
Li Guihua knew what she was going to ask and said: "One acre of land can produce about four to five hundred kilograms of rice. One hundred kilograms of grain in two seasons is not much."
Tian Shao did not refute her words, but just said: "You said that the yield of four to five hundred kilograms of rice per mu in one season is when the weather is good and the fields are fertile. If there is a disaster or the fields are not good, the yield will be much less. Mother.
, our family is not short of those few hundred kilograms of food, so we might as well give it to him for free, at least as a favor."
Li Guihua didn't want to go and said in a loud voice: "It's definitely not possible to cultivate our land. We must provide grain. But what you said is indeed right. Farming depends on the sky. When the time comes, I will harvest three hundred kilograms of grain."
Tian Shao felt that this amount was not high, so since Li Guihua gave in, she no longer objected. As for who would plant these lands, that was none of her business.
Unexpectedly, Tian Dalin came back that afternoon. As soon as he came back, he asked if the matter of dividing the fields was true. After knowing that it was true, he was so happy that he walked around the yard three times and then went out.
Tan Minjun asked with some confusion: "Third Aunt, do grandpa and grandma still want to farm?"
"No, the two of them are not in good health. Now they just grow some vegetables and no longer work in the fields."
Tan Minjun also saw that Tian Shao was dressed so well and was willing to eat, so he asked: "If you don't farm, why is grandpa so happy about dividing the land?"
Tian Shao replied to him in six words: "Because he is a farmer. Well, I have to go back first."
From the 27th of the twelfth lunar month to yesterday, six days of rest were enough. Today, Tian Shao began to think about the story of a future warrior traveling through the ancient earth. The outline and main line have been determined, and now it is time to start writing the plot. Everyone is familiar with the food theme.
She spoke enthusiastically and gave many good suggestions. Tian Shao accepted all the good suggestions, but she was not satisfied with the opinions given by everyone who traveled back to the ancient earth.
Tian Dalin was very excited and asked Li Guihua to go to the county town to take care of the children that night, while he stayed to help measure the land. Everyone was very excited when the land was to be divided. When the village cadres went to measure the land the next day, many people followed to see it.
Si Ya is a person who likes to have fun. She said to Tian Shao: "Sister, everyone is going to see Fentian, and I want to see it too."
Tian Shao smiled and said: "It's useless for you to tell me this. You have to ask Liuya."
Since Liuya went to school, she has been in charge of Siya and Wuya's studies. She has given them extra classes, taught exercises, and taught English. She is really more serious than the teacher. Of course, she is also stricter than the teacher. Also because Liuya keeps a strict eye on them.
, Wuya’s performance has always been among the best, and Siya, who is so lazy, is ranked in the middle and upper reaches.
Liuya came out of the house and said: "What's so interesting about measuring the land? Or are you planning to stay in Tianjiacun to farm in the future, instead of eating commercial grain and working in an office after going to college? If that's the case, then you go ahead!"
Si Ya didn't dare to go without permission, otherwise she would have to eat wild vegetable dumplings in the next few days. Not only that, when Li Guihua came back, she would also have to give her several meals of fried meat with bamboo shoots.
Seeing her languidly returning to the house, Tian Shao called Liu Ya to his side and said with a smile: "Si Ya lazy, you are right to keep a close eye on her, but you should also balance work and rest. I see you have been letting them go in the past few days.
They didn’t even go out to memorize English exercises and let them go out to play for two hours today. If they are in a good mood, they will study more efficiently.”
Liuya was worried for the two of them. Wuya had a higher chance of getting into college if she studied hard, but Siya had little hope of getting a mid-to-upper-class score. She was so anxious that she arranged a lot of exercises. But she listened to Tian Shao the most.
She said so and agreed.
When Si Ya heard that she could go out to play, she was afraid that Liu Ya would regret it, so she ran out to play.
She was very happy to be able to go out and play with Wuya, but she had a question in her mind, so she came over to ask Tian Shao first: "Sister, the English college entrance examination is only thirty minutes. I don't think it is necessary to spend so much time on it."
She can understand memorizing Chinese, but Liuya also requires her to memorize a lot of English words and texts. She has a 100% score in Chinese and math classes, and English is only thirty minutes. She feels that it is not worthwhile to spend so much time on it.
Tian Shao was a little surprised, but she was very pleased that Wuya could take the initiative to raise this question. However, she could not tell Wuya that English would soon become the main subject. She just said euphemistically: "Sanya, now that the country is open,
English is becoming more and more important. As long as you learn English well, you can find a good job in the future even if you don't go to college."
Wuya looked puzzled: "If you don't go to college, can you find a good job if you are good at English?"
Tian Shao nodded and said: "There are many foreigners in Yangcheng now, and those people speak English. If you learn English well, you can be a translator or a foreign trade clerk. These positions have high salaries."
"how many?"
Tian Shao really doesn’t know this because he has never been exposed to this industry: “I don’t know the specifics, but if you are a translator, two to three hundred a month should be fine.”
There are still four years until Wuya graduates from high school, and her salary will increase significantly in four years. It is estimated that she will not be able to hire an English translator for 200 to 300 yuan. However, she does not understand the market, so she can only give a rough idea.
"Is it that high?"
Tian Shao said with a smile: "The salary is high, but the requirements for translation are also high. Your speaking skills must reach at least Liuya level, otherwise no one will hire you."
Thinking of Liuya's fluent English, Wuya found it a little difficult: "What about the foreign trade staff?"
Tian Shao said with a smile: "The requirements for foreign trade workers are not that high, but the salary is probably about a hundred less! Wuya, if you learn English well, you will have the same skills as your third sister."
When Wuya heard this, she clenched her fists and said, "Sister, I will study English well in the future."
