775 Chapter 775

Chapter 775: Fifty-year-old sister-in-law (8)

Xu Yin: "..."

Do you think raising seedlings and transplanting rice seedlings is easy?

Not necessarily! Not necessarily! Not necessarily!

Especially when transplanting rice seedlings, in the early 1950s when manpower was used to transplant rice seedlings, you had to actually bend over. Once the rice seedlings were planted, you would realize that this waist was no longer yours.

Besides, does she seem to be lacking in strength?

So, she slowly walked to the first group position, but no one chose her, so she took the first place.

Everyone: "..."

"Comrade Xu Yin, how about you think about it again?"

Captain Fu was afraid that she had misunderstood, so he repeated the rough division of labor among the five groups, and then said:

"You see, the first group is responsible for pioneering the entire team. The task is very heavy, so just... leave it to the male compatriots! The uncultivated wasteland, according to the fellow villagers here, is seriously hardened and overgrown with weeds.

If you go down with the hoe, you might still hit rocks, so..."

"I understand." Xu Yin said, "My strength is by no means less than that of my male compatriots, don't worry!"

Xiao Jing didn't bring much rations: "But my father asked someone to exchange a few national food stamps and gave them to me. If it doesn't work, I'll use my food stamps to exchange for some rice and noodles with my fellow villagers first."

"It does look like a deer."

As soon as we entered the village, many members of the land reclamation team gathered around us.

"Comrades, we are here today. Go back and have a good rest. Work will officially start tomorrow. No matter how hard and tired you are, you must carry on. Do you have the confidence?"

She had grilled and eaten the meat of deer beasts when she was in Taoyuan Star. It tasted great. At that time, she hunted a few of them and stored them in the system warehouse because they were so delicious. She didn't expect that they would come in handy now.

What the Tunli people call cutting firewood is actually cutting weeds on the wasteland.

Captain Fu saw that Xu Yin insisted on choosing the first group, so he had no choice but to let her go.

With the help of the villagers, I had to ask them to borrow cooking pots and stoves. I couldn't borrow them for nothing, so I went out together to collect some firewood to repay the favor.

After returning, she took out the rice bag, grabbed two handfuls of brown rice, and took out a sweet potato: "I'm going to cook brown rice porridge tonight and simmer a sweet potato. Let's share it among the three of us. Do you think it's okay?"

"It doesn't matter, let's eat first!"

"I brought a clay pot with me to make porridge." Xu Yin took out an old clay pot from her bag that had been used in some small world.

"Hahaha! That's right!" Xiao Jing said with a smile, "I'm going to ask Aunt Fang to borrow a stove eye."

Suddenly, a cheerful bright yellow flashed past her eyes. That was - a roe deer?

Silly roe deer unique to Northeast China?

How does this make him feel relieved?

"Is this a deer?"

The cold spring scene, as cold as an ink painting, was completely different from the delightful peach red willows and green willows in the south of the Yangtze River. This made her sigh with emotion at the magic of nature——

Huang Xiaohong blushed and said, "I, I don't have food stamps."

Huang Xiaohong slumped her shoulders in despair: "Why do you even need to borrow firewood? How can you pay back this borrowed money?"

"..."

Xiao Jing and Huang Xiaohong looked at each other in surprise and said in unison: "Xu Yin, why have you even considered this? No wonder your luggage is so heavy."

When Aunt Fang saw Xu Yin, a delicate girl, carrying a hatchet out of the house, she twitched her lips and couldn't help but said worriedly: "Xiao Xu, you must hold on tight, don't hit your foot. I say.

Forget about a bundle of firewood. Anyway, the firewood at home is enough, so let my eldest son chop it down tomorrow."

"have!"

"Actually, I don't have much confidence." Huang Xiaohong said with concern. "When I think about going to the ground, my hands and feet go numb. I heard that there are leeches in the ground that can suck human blood. Is it true?"

"Xu Yin, where did you catch him?"

"Oops!" Suddenly, Huang Xiaohong slapped her forehead, "I forgot to ask the captain when the rations would be distributed. I only brought a few days of dry food, and I almost had enough to eat on the train."

I thought that I would suffer a lot after working for a day tomorrow, and even if he didn't say anything, Xu Yin would come to him and beg him to change the type of work, so let's do this for now.

Xu Yin smiled and said, "It's okay. I just want to get familiar with the surrounding environment. Madam, please go back to the house. It's cold outside. I'll be back soon."

Xu Yin smiled and said nothing, saying to herself that the land my sister has cultivated is more than the food you have eaten!

It's the end of March, and the ground is still frozen, the grass and trees are still withered, and the winter insects are still stiff...

Xu Yin raised her hand to cover her forehead and squinted her eyes to look at the desolate and deserted land in front of her.

"Yes! I got the rations later, and it's the same thing when I give them back to Xu Yin."

Xiao Jing had experienced Xu Yin's great strength. She couldn't even carry two bulging pieces of luggage. Xu Yin could easily carry it on her shoulders. But after all, this was a girl's family. She could pick an easy job, so why not pick one?

, to do heavy work instead? She couldn't figure it out.

"Okay!" Xiao Jing responded happily, and then gave Xu Yin a food stamp, "I can't take advantage of you."

They also came out to collect firewood.

She didn't care. With this "roe deer", how much firewood can't be exchanged? The key is that she can still eat meat openly. Kaisen!

"Ah! Xu Yin! What is that in your hand?"

Hewozitun is quite far from the mountains, but very close to the river.

There weren't many weeds.

Xiao Jing asked doubtfully: "Xu Yin, have you ever farmed? How come you know everything?"

Unexpectedly, just after leaving the village, I saw Xu Yin walking towards me, holding a wild deer that seemed to have just fainted in her hand, and her eyes were red with envy:

Xu Yin and Xiao Jing had no time to care about her mood. One went to Aunt Fang to borrow firewood from the stove to cook porridge and simmer sweet potatoes, and the other borrowed a hatchet and went out to chop firewood.

"Cut it down and pay it back!" Xu Yin and Xiao Jing said in unison.

The three of them agreed and started to divide the work to cook.

Although they are all under the same sky, some places have not yet left the embrace of winter, while some places have already begun to enjoy the enthusiasm of summer...

"No matter where you are, no matter what you do, you have to eat, right? People are like iron rice and steel. If you don't eat one meal, you will starve!"

Xu Yin said: "You don't need to find a fellow countryman, I will take care of you."

After they broke up, Xiao Jing took Xu Yin and Huang Xiaohong and went back to Fang's house together.

Xu Yin nodded: "There are leeches in the rice fields, but it's still early to transplant the rice seedlings. The fields haven't been planted yet, so your five groups should arrange to cultivate the seedlings first."

After a while, she had a Taoyuan Star Deer beast in her hand that looked like a wild roe deer.

The two looked at each other and smiled.

"Not only the stove burner, but also the bundles of firewood must be borrowed. We can't use theirs in vain," Xu Yin said.

Look at this thin little body, it feels like it will collapse when the wind blows.

Huang Xiaohong curled her lips. This was so different from what she had imagined. She even regretted signing up for the reclamation team.

The food is available, but where is the cooking stove?

He divided the work among the remaining young men, and then asked everyone to go back to rest.

A large open river winds through Tunkou, like a silver ribbon on the boundless wasteland, glowing with waves in the sun.

Xu Yin's heart moved.

"Are there any deer to hunt around here?"

"Is it because the winter is too long and they are too hungry that they come out to look for food?"

"Xu Yin can hunt it, then let's..."

Xu Yin: "..."

Brother who said the last sentence, are you polite?
