The rest of the people were listening, and Zhao Xiaojing would add some more.
It was noon. "You guys are eating here today."
After hearing this, Tan Shaoting went to the ground and said, "I'll do it."
Su Yuanyuan shook her head, why are you so embarrassed? "Let's go."
At noon, we had steamed steamed buns and stewed sauerkraut. Su Yuanyuan also fried a bowl of chili. Of course, there wasn't much oil, but it was already very fragrant.
It’s been a long time since I had such a meal. Su Yuanyuan steamed fifty steamed buns that were bigger than her fist. Unexpectedly, there was none left at all, and half the pot of sauerkraut was also eaten.
Zhao Qingxiang and the other five were a little embarrassed. They ate too much.
"Yuanyuan, I'm sorry, we ate so much."
Su Yuanyuan smiled and waved her hands, "I understand. But you have to eat sparingly in the future. I don't know what will happen in the future. Also, the farm should give you food. I will drive with you to find Director Feng in a while.
.
One hundred catties per person, but not all of it is pure food, so we have to save some."
I was originally in a good mood, but now that I think about it, I feel a little heavy.
But it would be nice to have one hundred kilograms of grain. It is also something to be happy about.
After eating, they continued to sit on the kang, and Zhao Yanping continued to pick up the soles of her shoes.
Su Yuanyuan found her old clothes, as well as a large piece of black corduroy cloth and white cotton cloth. Wrapping it up with the cloth, "Sister, you go back and continue the work. I will give you a pair of shoes that look like a lady's square mouth."
I think you can sell the cloth shoes that are off-kilter if you make them like this."
Zhao Yanping smiled and nodded, "It's okay, even if we can't sell it, we will still wear it. Anyway, doing some work is better than sitting around."
Tan Shaoting went to prepare food for them, a bag of cornmeal. The skin inside the cornmeal was not winnowed out at all, but it is already a very good grain now, and no one can afford fine cornmeal.
Ten Japanese melons were brought out from the cellar, along with a bag of sweet potatoes and a bag of potatoes.
These are really quite a lot. In this environment, there are really very few people who can feed so many people.
"Yuanyuan, thank you so much."
Su Yuanyuan patted Zhao Yanli's hand, "You have just come here. We are from the same village, and we have a good relationship. I have food now, how can I see that you can't survive?"
If I really get there, I won’t have it anymore, so there’s nothing I can do about it.”
After listening to Su Yuanyuan's words, the five brothers and sisters decided in their hearts that they must save food. Otherwise, what should they do if they really have no way to farm?
Tan Shaoting brought over the donkey cart and loaded everything on the cart. Then he gave them a large vat and a small vat. He put the sauerkraut into the small vat and more than ten pieces of pickles.
"Yuanyuan, I'd better drive to deliver her."
Su Yuanyuan glanced at Tan Shaoting differently, why did this guy call him that? He used to call her by his first and last name.
"I'd better go with you and have a look. We also have to go to Field Director Feng. No matter what you give us, we have to give you this food."
Tan Shaoting nodded, "Then let's go together. You catch the car, and I'll leave."
I was reluctant to let the little donkey get tired, so only Su Yuanyuan sat on the donkey cart, and the other six people walked behind.
They were really not close, and it took more than an hour of walking to reach their residence.
They are all the same houses. They are three-bedroom adobe houses with no yard. They don't feel safe.
Su Yuanyuan saw that they tied the door with hemp rope. "Don't you have a lock?"
All five brothers and sisters shook their heads. Su Yuanyuan took out a new lock from her bag and handed it to Zhao Qingxiang.
"I bought this newly, you can use it. There will be food in the future. The door must be locked at home."
Zhao Qingxiang took it. They didn't even think about it. They didn't know there was no lock until they were going out today.
The three boys quickly moved the food down.
"Sister, you should actually dig a cellar now. This way you can hide things better and store them longer."
"Well, we have thought about it, and I think the eldest brother and the second brother will start digging the cellar tomorrow."
After they finished it, they went to the brigade headquarters.
This time, four girls sat in the car, and the remaining three boys followed behind.
"Sister, how much land do you plan to plant?"
"The eldest brother and the second brother mean one hundred and fifty acres of land. In this way, we can give it to the donkey."
Su Yuanyuan thought about it for a while. "I have a lot of corn stalks at home. When your donkey cart arrives, I will go over and pull them out and keep them to feed the donkeys."
Even if there is no food, the donkeys will not starve to death if they have corn stalks to feed them.
"Yuanyuan, we will plant whatever you plant. We will plant with you whenever you plant." Zhao Yanli believed in Su Yuanyuan from the bottom of her heart.
Su Yuanyuan nodded, "Okay, I don't know yet. We will wait until we are civilized. I will definitely inform you."
And if you still need anything, just go to my place and ask. I don’t have everything. We’ll come here alternately when the time comes. It’s still half a day away from the nearest rural supply and marketing cooperative. So it’s really not easy to go out.
"
The three sisters were quite helpless after hearing this, but since this was the case, they had to stay here honestly.
It's not too far from the landing site and it took less than an hour to get there.
Feng Baoshan was preparing to go home early today when he saw Su Yuanyuan, Tan Shaoting and their group coming over.
"Director Feng." Tan Shaoting greeted with a smile.
"Xiao Tan, Xiao Su, are you back? How about it? Foreign countries are fun, right?"
He was notified that the two and a half-year-old children on the farm he was responsible for donated all the money and exchanged it for food and sent it to the border.
Although I feel sorry for having so much money, I also feel really proud and honorable.
"It's okay, it's almost the same as here, but it snowed several times over there."
Feng Baoshan sighed. This is a natural disaster, not man-made. There is really no way. We can only eat by relying on God's favor.
"Director Feng, we came here to help Zhao Qingxiang and the others get subsidies back to the farm."
Feng Baoshan sighed, "We don't have much food in the warehouse anymore."
Su Yuanyuan frowned and said, "Director Feng, in this current environment, we have to give them food, right? Even if it's not much, we can't watch them starve to death."
Feng Baoshan sighed again, "Okay, give it, but only two formal workers will get food."
Su Yuanyuan was helpless. She had thought of this result on the way, but it was already very good to be given.
"Director Feng, can you give them 200 kilograms of corn? You also saw that there are three girls. Although they are not formal workers in our second farm yet, they still live and work on our farm.
If you don’t give them three, give them two brothers some real food, so that all five of them can live.”
