They were all looking for jokes, and they had all kinds of unpleasant things to say, but the two children couldn't come out, and there were few people there and they were far away, so if they had bad things to say, it would just be said by these talkative women.
Tan Shaoting drove back and thought of Ma Dongmei's words. He was really full. But now that such words have spread, it means that many people are talking about it.
When I got home, the yard was quiet. The little girl was probably sleeping.
He has been alive for a long time. Although he has never experienced emotional things before, he doesn't know everything.
In this place, many people live in groups because it is really not easy to live alone.
Although some unpleasant words were spread, they were just words, so he didn't take them to heart.
Go back to your room and lie down to sleep. It's too hot outside. It's better to sleep like that girl at this time.
Su Yuanyuan woke up when Tan Shaoting came back. Listening to the noise outside, she knew that he had also gone to rest.
She knew that this would be the case for the next two or three years. The two of them might not be able to farm next year.
I'm really worried that this worst situation has happened. It's really frustrating.
At that time, grandma would talk about what happened in the past few years whenever she had time.
So she was afraid of these past few years. Considering all the things she had in hand, she couldn't do anything. She was really worried.
So when Tan Shaoting got up in the afternoon, he saw the wilting little girl.
"What's wrong?"
“How long will this drought last?”
"At least how many years?"
"What do you eat then? How do you survive?" Su Yuanyuan was shocked now.
"It can get through."
"Can you go there? There's nothing to eat. By the way, how do the Japanese melons look like over there?"
Tan Shaoting didn't expect that this girl would change the topic so quickly?
"It's okay. I've counted it. There are more than two hundred. I water it every day and it looks fine."
Su Yuanyuan still frowned. "Tan Shaoting, you said we can collect grain. If we go to a foreign country to collect grain, how will we cross the road when we come back?"
"Going to a foreign country?"
Tan Shaoting has only read a few foreign books and really doesn't know anything about foreign countries.
"Yes, come here and I will show you the map. Do you want to take a look?"
The two entered the house. Su Yuanyuan found the map. She pointed it to Tan Shaoting, "This is right here. It's bigger than our country. You see, this is our place. It's not far away."
"The fact that it's close to our place means the climate should be about the same."
Su Yuanyuan was stunned for a moment, yes. But she still didn't give up. She didn't know the history of foreign countries. But she didn't hear that foreign countries were also suffering from drought in the past few years.
"The temperature there is similar to ours. I said if we can't farm next year, let's go over and have a look?"
"next year?"
"Yeah, we two can't leave this year? How about you harvest the autumn by yourself, and I can go over and take a look?"
Tan Shaoting shook his head, "No, if you want to go, let's go together."
"It's going to snow over there after we harvest the autumn. We won't be able to get anything by then?"
"Can we buy it?"
"Of course, but think about it, if we buy it, how will we get it back?"
"Then you went there to steal?" Tan Shaoting raised his eyebrows?
Su Yuanyuan rolled her eyes at Tan Shaoting, "Why do you say it's so ugly? Let's go over and take a look first? What do you mean by stealing?"
She knew that the area there was very large, and the population there was not that large. Nowadays, they are mechanized, that is, they have started planting. If it snows, they will not be able to harvest anymore. The most popular thing there is wheat, right?
I have read novels before, but I have seen that there is an endless harvest every autumn, and I will harvest what they don’t harvest.
Although it is also self-service without asking, it sounds better than stealing.
Tan Shaoting nodded, "I was wrong. But if you want to go out, I must follow you, but you have to think about it, it is probably not realistic for us to go out at that time, and the farm will not allow it."
Even if it’s close to our place, it probably won’t be there in less than ten days and a half months, right? How do you want to get there? Take a train?”
Su Yuanyuan coughed, could she sneak over there secretly?
"Sneaking over? Is that possible?"
"Going secretly? How to get there?"
"Take the train?"
Tan Shaoting thought about it and decided that it was still possible. "Okay, let's try it then."
The two of them studied the map again. They still didn't know what the actual situation in foreign countries was like. Whatever they said now was just empty talk and fantasy.
Next, the two of them worked in the fields every day. Somehow word got out that there were fish in the puddle. Many half-year-old children came over during the day. In the past, the family would warn them that the water here was deep and they were afraid of flooding.
.There is not much water now. The adults in the family are also relieved.
After all, if you really get fish, your house can be improved.
Now many people know that Su Yuanyuan's crops are growing well.
Some people feel unbalanced and think that their land can be irrigated but their own land cannot. Looking at this situation, there must be not much harvest and the task must not be completed. No matter what, you have to make excuses.
So the ten families in Ma Changshun's group found their group leader.
What can Ma Changshun do? He is the youngest team leader.
"I will tell the director if you have any opinions."
"Team Leader Ma, when are you going to see the field director? How about we go with you?
We are not jealous that other people's crops are growing so well. We are just reflecting our own situation. This situation is the same for everyone on the farm, right? Only the new little girl can have a harvest.
So what will we do in the future? Our family still needs to eat, and all the seeds have to be planted. This will still be a year of work in vain.
This drought is not because we don’t work or are lazy, nor is it something we can decide.”
Ma Changshun had no choice. In fact, it was no longer a group. But what could Director Feng do? He had no right to decide anything. He had to follow the arrangements from above.
"Okay, let's go there together now."
Ten people got on Ma Changshun's donkey cart and went to find Feng Baoshan, the director of the second farm.
Looking at all the withered and yellow corn along the way, no one knew what to say.
This time, the farm's official recruits are all farmers, who have been doing farm work all their lives. Seeing this situation, they are all very uncomfortable.
"I really can't even harvest the seeds. I have used 300 kilograms of seeds in my 100 acres of land."
The other people were silent after hearing this.
Ma Changshun drives the car "It's always like this."
"That little girl's field can produce a harvest. If I had that puddle, I would be able to clean it up better than she could."
