Getting married is nothing more than a handful of wedding candies. It certainly can't afford a banquet.
It was very lively. Several old comrades who were very close to Lin Baichuan were clamoring to drink Lin Baichuan's wedding wine: "You are the youngest, and it turns out that your son is the first to have a family." I am so envious and jealous!
It’s no wonder people say that, Lin Baichuan is indeed only in his thirties. According to this progress, he is less than forty years old, and he must be a grandfather.
But among them, there are still those who are forty years old and have not yet started a family.
If you don’t have a family, where will the children come from?
This is sending a generation of people into this life.
So, the only way to express dissatisfaction was to all stay and drink.
Lin Baichuan smiled like an idiot, but he said: "Why are you so happy? Marrying a daughter-in-law is such a happy event. Marrying a daughter-in-law, don't mention it, what a feeling it is. Come on! Drink! Drink." He shouted to Chang.
Qiu Yun: "My dear, let's get some food and drinks." He also called the guard, "Go to my office and get all the wine in the cabinet below." He also told a few people: "Last time I went to the commander's house, I stole some wine.
I came back with some good wine. I haven’t bothered to drink it yet. I’ll just forget about the Communist Party.” After he finished explaining to the people, he remembered again, “My name is Ohara, O??, and the old man.
Come here..." When the others arrived, he introduced them one by one and asked the three people to come over and toast, "This is my useless child..." Then he scolded a few of them, "Toast, those who should be called uncle are called uncles.
, those who should be called uncles are called uncles, don’t worry, you uncles and uncles will not cause you any disadvantages."
The room was so noisy that Mrs. Lin was so happy that she never closed her mouth the whole day.
Chang Qiuyun is in the kitchen. It's Chinese New Year, so he can still prepare some good dishes.
A plate of fried peanuts, a plate of autumn oil with vermicelli, a plate of cabbage hearts, and a large pot of hot radish stewed tofu. Top it with a pot of steamed buns with two noodles, and it is the best meal.
When Fan Yunqing arrived, Chang Qiuyun had just brought the food in and out. When she saw it, she followed directly to the kitchen and called: "Sister."
The smile on Chang Qiuyun's face was flawless: "Xiao Fan! Come on!" Then he took the remaining fried peanuts and asked, "Try it, are they burnt?"
Fan Yunqing quickly waved his hand: "No! No! I'm just here to give something to Niu Niu." After saying that, he handed over the net bag in his hand: "Think about it, there's nothing I can give. Here are two thermos bottles, here they are.
Children. Now that you are married, you have to go out and live on your own, and you need a lot of things. After thinking about it, I think this thing may come in handy."
"Look... why is this so embarrassing?" After saying that, he took it again, "Okay, you are not an outsider, so I won't be polite to you. I will accept it for the child." Then he pointed inside: "Baichuan"
I'm drinking with Zhong Zhengwei and the others in the house. Would you like to come in and say hello?"
"No! No!" Fan Yunqing turned around hurriedly, "I know you're busy today, so I won't stay any longer. Just be busy, I'll go back first."
After everyone left, Ohara, who was holding the book, raised his head: "Mom, why are you collecting her things?"
"Why don't you accept her things?" Do you think this thermos bottle is easy to buy?
"Anyway, it's not good to accept her things." Ohara snorted, "You have no principles, you can buy her off with small favors."
"You know nothing." I really don't understand how people like me and Lin Baichuan could give birth to such a bastard. Counting on from the top, the old lady and the old man don't have this kind of temper. The old man is just giving someone a bath.
Gold and silver jewelry can be worn down by people, and the old lady is even more shrewd. Why is she not clear about anything? What happened? Such a seedling actually grew in the field of Lao Lin's house? It's strange!
She was dissatisfied, so she whispered to her son, "If you don't accept it, she won't owe us any more? Can she pay back what she owes us? It was seventeen years ago, and she couldn't afford to pay back anything."
! However, if you come back, you will forget the point. That’s why I say you are stupid! If you don’t accept it, we will only suffer more. If we accept it, who will not say that we are generous? We will lose the benefit..." He said it halfway.
He said that he knew what he was doing, and it was useless to say it, "You are really worrying me to death. Why am I willing to ask your brother to be a soldier, but I dare not ask you to be a soldier? With your brain..."
If you go to the battlefield, you will only risk your life. "Even Niuniu has less worries than you." I never suffer a loss!
It is true that suffering a loss is a blessing, but why do we have to seek a loss if we can avoid it?
One day after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, a telegram came directly to me.
It's from Factory 115. The content of the telegram is very concise: Please come to our factory to report on February 15th.
"Is this the end?" Chang Qiuyun listened with open ears and heard only this sentence. After a moment of doubt, he immediately asked his daughter: "Is there still one month left?"
"That's not the calculation." Lin Yutong said, "I have to go to the division headquarters to find out which day on the lunar calendar February 15th is."
At this time, Chang Qiuyun still didn't understand what the lunar calendar was based on.
After checking the results, I realized that there is really not much time for preparation. February 15th is the eighteenth day of the first lunar month.
It's already the seventeenth day of the first lunar month.
Come on! Clean it up quickly.
Mrs. Lin complained: "What kind of factory is this? Why are you in such a hurry?"
Who knows why you are so anxious?
Originally, I wanted to ask Ohara and O?? to see them off together, but by chance, Ohara Police Academy asked him to come over and submit the materials. As for Ohara, school had already started again.
Lin Yutong said: "How can we lose it? My father knows that factory. If you need anything, ask him. It's not far away. If you need anything, I'll come back and get it."
Ouch! You damn girl! What are you taking? Be so confident! Who told you to take it?
"You are married!" Chang Qiuyun shouted, "If you want to come to your mother's house again to get something, you can't do it."
Lin Yutong didn't bother to argue with her at the moment. He carried the quilt on his back to salute, and also carried a net bag in his hand. There were a lot of messy things in the net bag, including a thermos, lunch box, washbasin, towel, toothbrush and toothbrush.
It's like fleeing.
As soon as I left the house, I saw a jeep parked at the door. Lin Baichuan greeted him from the car, "...what...I'm going over there to do some errands today and give them a ride..."
There was a smile in Chang Qiuyun's eyes, and the old lady said: "This is a bit like being a father."
So, the things were put on the roof of the car and tied up. Fourth Master sat in the front, and Lin Yutong and Lin Baichuan sat in the back seat.
In the car, Lin Baichuan first spoke in an official tone and said to the fourth master: "...the work of the security department is very important. Especially in a unit like yours, the work of the security department is even more important. You must obey the leadership's arrangements and don't
Don't be afraid of hardship but don't be afraid of tiredness..." After finishing his rambling instructions, he coughed again and said to Lin Yutong: "Girl, just follow me. When you get to the place, you will know that the conditions are difficult. You may have the ideal you want.
The leadership is not very easy to arrange your work. You must be mentally prepared for this. Of course, as long as you work hard and work hard, the leadership will still see it. You are my father's daughter, but... don't think about taking the path of Guan Tuomen.
…”
"Understood!" Lin Yutong looked at the scene outside the window. The road he came to now was much wider than the first time he came here last year. At least two cars could go parallel. It can be seen that this winter, people have no time to spare.
Then, she said to Lin Baichuan, "If you work hard, you will never die of hunger."
While she was talking, she looked at the embarrassed but majestic people passing by from time to time. Many people pointed at the car. When the car turned a corner, she saw the huge square that had just been filled.
Up, the huge crowd.
Lin Baichuan said: "Stop." He looked at Lin Yutong and reached out to touch the child's head, but in the end he only patted her shoulder, "I'll send you here. You have to walk the rest of the way by yourself."
."
He did not get out of the car, but called the driver Xiao Wang to help Fourth Master and Lin Yutong put down their luggage.
Lin Yutong lay on the car window and called out sincerely: "Dad!" Her eyes were full of smiles and she said: "Thank you."
He didn't just drop by, but came here specifically to see them off.
Originally, the car didn't need to turn, it just had to stop at a place where people were being carried. It was only a few steps away. But as it happened, he waited until the car turned and drove to a place where so many people could see it before he stopped.
Don’t you understand what this means?
Can you come in a car like this without some background behind you?
This will play a decisive role in the fourth master's foothold in the company and Lin Yutong's desire to find a suitable job.
Those who have always insisted that public buses are not for private use, and those who have always insisted on not showing favoritism, are still showing favoritism this time.
The car left. Lin Baichuan, who was sitting in the back seat, saw his daughter standing at the intersection watching the car leave. His eyes suddenly became wet. He took off his military cap, wiped his eyes, and said to Xiao Wang: "Gas money, from me.
It will be deducted from the monthly subsidy.”
When the car was far away, Fourth Master caught it and saluted: "Let's go. No wonder it's not easy."
They are also people who have lived through that era. They can understand things that many people cannot understand.
He put away the trace of melancholy in his heart and turned around after Fourth Master.
As a result, when I turned around, I saw a particularly eye-catching figure.
A girl wearing a woolen coat and small leather shoes was standing on the dirt-filled roadside. She was holding a suitcase in her hand, and she seemed to be here to report.
After taking two steps forward, Lin Yutong was stunned.
Isn't this Lin Xiaoxing?
Lin Xiaoxing looked at Lin Yutong, her eye circles slowly turning red. She had seen it just now. It was her father's car. She wanted to use the car, but he couldn't use the left or right. But what about this country girl? Why can she use it?
The same daughter, why are they treated differently?
She sneered at Lin Yutong, turned around and left.
Yes! We've made enemies again.
Lin Yutong was too lazy to take care of it. When he arrived at a slightly cleaner place, he and Fourth Master put down the things, "You go and report, I'll look at the things."
After the fourth master left, she looked around: except for the factory dormitory, there was nothing else. But looking at the huge crowd, there were not a thousand, but maybe eight hundred. There were also people arriving one after another.
.
And you can see that there are all kinds of people.
Some of them are neatly dressed and have eyes that make them look like intellectuals.
What about others? Patched cotton jackets and large crotch pants. These should be the craftsmen invited, that is, technicians.
There are also some female students wearing military uniforms or dressed like Lin Xiaoxing. Judging from their figure and temperament, they are probably from the art troupe of the factory.
In addition to those who crowded in to sign up, there were also family members like Lin Yutong waiting aside.
Even the whole family came here.
At this time, people had no idea of eating from the public family. They only knew that if they followed them to the city, they could earn a living. It was better than farming in their hometown.
While Lin Yutong was standing, a tall and fat woman came over and greeted Lin Yutong: "...Sister, are you here with your man too?"
My man?
This title is... vulgar, but appropriate.
"Well." Lin Yutong responded loudly: "I came with my man. What about you? You came with me too?"
"No way." The man said, "As soon as I heard that he came to the city to work as a worker, my father immediately sent me to his house. His family was not happy... Damn it! I want to fly high.
Huh? It's a dream. I stayed at their house first, and then... followed her all the way. I still don't believe that she can send me back."
Why does it sound like this little wife is more tiger than Hu Niu?
Lin Yutong smiled along with him and stretched his head to look at the registration place. He was eager to know how this was arranged when the Fourth Master came back.
The little daughter-in-law laughed: "What's wrong? I just left my eyes and now I miss your man?"
This guy is full of dirty talk.
Lin Yutong didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Just as he was about to talk, he heard the person behind him shout: "Hu Niu, is that you?"
Ouch! I still can’t get rid of this tiger girl’s name.
As soon as he turned his face, he saw Qian Siyuan standing not far away with a look of surprise on his face, "Is it really you? Where is the fourth child! Oh my god, I found it." He carried something.
He ran over, "Hurry up! Hurry up! Keep up! We're almost there."
Who is this called?
Looking up, isn't this Cheng Meini?
"You...you guys?" Lin Yutong pointed his finger between the two of them, "You two?"
"Isn't this the original engagement?" Qian Siyuan looked a little embarrassed, "She had to come with me."
Cheng Meini still looks like a beauty, but her clothes are indeed not as bright as before. Her clothes have also been patched, and she has become a dusty country girl. In addition, she has been driving all the way, and she is in embarrassment.
No. And because of various unpleasant things with the Lin family, I only raised my eyes when I saw Lin Yutong, and then lowered my eyelids.
Qian Siyuan put the things away and said to Cheng Meini: "You and Huniu stay here. I'll go and sign up first." As he walked forward, he muttered, "Oh my God, there's nothing like this.
Where do so many people live?”
This is what Lin Yutong wants to know.
Where do all these people live?
The fourth master was the first to come back. Seeing a man walking this way, the sultry wife asked: "Hey...is that your man?"
Lin Yutong nodded: "Yes! He is my man."
I have heard the Fourth Master call me anything, but I have never heard Tongtong say "my man" or "my man". When he came over, he said in a very meaningful way: "Your man is back."
To Lin Yutong's shame: "Hurry up and tell me how to settle down!"
Are you still embarrassed?
Seeing that there were outsiders, Fourth Master stopped teasing him and pointed to the vast grassland: "Those with family members can find a way to build a dormitory by themselves. Those without family members, there are eight people in a class, so they can find a way to find a dormitory by themselves."
"
ah!?
Fourth Master pointed to a relatively high place: "Did you see it? That's the dormitory area! Let's go."
Lin Yutong put away the pained expression on his face and chuckled: "Does that mean we have to build the factory dormitories ourselves?"
"Work hard and be self-reliant." Fourth Master pointed to the huge slogans on both sides, "Let's go and start everything from scratch. Hurry, let's try to pick a good place. I can't live here for a year or two."
It's really possible.
If you want to build a house, you should first build a factory. As for a place for people to live? What's the hurry? What's the point of having to suffer a little?
Lin Yutong thought this area was big at first, but now walking all the way, I just feel like I am looking at the mountains and running to death. There is a plateau at the top, and there are more puddles and swamps at the bottom. Since there are people living here, of course I have to choose a high place.
Got it.
It was easy to climb up, and there were quite a few people there.
With the advice of a kind person, the two of them first went to the material loan office to borrow tools, such as shovels, hoes, machetes, and the like. Then they could start work.
But what kind of house should we build? This is a question.
Digging a cave?
Some people do this, but Fourth Master is not prepared to do this. Both of them have lived in cave dwellings. They both know very well what kind of soil quality and soil layer can be used to dig cave dwellings. The fourth master knows the soil layer in this place.
I don't think it's very safe.
As we walked further, we saw that there were still people digging underground, hoping to dig a nest and cover it with dry grass, reeds, etc. to keep it warm in winter and cool in summer.
But you have to dig down at least two and a half meters. Can it keep it from getting wet?
Just by looking at the swamp in the distance, you can tell that the groundwater here is abundant. It must be wet down there.
You can't do this either.
The only thing that can be done is to build a shack.
It was difficult to even move my feet in the small shack, and my family couldn't bear the grievance.
If we want to take a ride, let’s take a good one.
It’s not easy to build a good one. There is a lack of wood around. At most, there are shrubs as thick as a child’s arm. And if you build a shack, you don’t have a bed. You have to sleep on the ground. This doesn’t seem to be too big compared to cave dwellings and underground dens.
difference.
After comparing, cave dwellings and underground nests are actually more reliable. At least there can be an earthen platform reserved inside for use as a bed.
Once the cave dwelling collapses, it must be buried in the soil. As for the underground cave, at least it has a self-built roof, so no one can be killed.
Lin Yutong said: "There is a moisture-proof mat in the mattress, so it's okay."
Then dig a nest in the ground.
It takes strength to dig a nest in the ground.
The fourth master refused to let Lin Yutong do it, so he said, "Go and cut some reeds, twist some hemp rope, and come back to weave mats."
That's right! Today's conditions require nothing. If you just make do with a shack, you can certainly get by, but if you want to be sheltered from the wind and rain, you have to spend some effort.
I was given a week to settle in, and I was given a month's salary of 20 yuan and 50 cents as settling-in expenses.
It sounds good, but what can you do with this little time and this little money?
Not to mention time, if it can’t be done, it won’t be damaged? Just squeeze it and you’ll get it.
But what about this money? If you use the money to buy a home, can you buy everything on that day? But this little money also includes the living expenses for this month? If you do the math, you will know that there are not many things you can buy.
Besides, who would be willing to spend money to clean up a nest in the ground?
You have to do it yourself.
In fact, cutting reeds, twisting hemp rope and making mats is not an easy task, it is also very trivial and time-consuming.
But you still have to do it!
Okay, put down your things, take the machete and use it as a sickle, and go cut the reeds.
On the edge of the depression below, there are thin, long and extremely tough reeds. Lin Yutong was not the only one to come up with this idea. There are many people who have thought of this. The newcomers didn’t know anyone.
They were all talking randomly. One person asked: "You are here too." The other person answered: "Can you come? Who knew this place doesn't even have a place to sleep."
Lin Yutong answered the same question a few times, and then someone shouted: "Sister, I've found you."
It turned out to be Biao's daughter-in-law who had spoken to her before. She responded: "Here we come. There are quite a few reeds here. Let's work together?"
"Okay!" The daughter-in-law said, "I borrowed a trolley and came over, and we can do it together." She ran over in a few steps and said, "Do you think we are destined to be together? My man just found a suitable place, but I walked to the side and
Look, isn’t that your man who’s doing the work? Oh, I’m so lucky, you girl, your man is really handsome.”
There were a few good-natured laughs all around.
This person spoke in a very loud voice, and she didn’t know what she was laughing at. She laughed a few times and then said: "We will all be neighbors from now on. You can call me Mrs. Zhang or Guilan. My husband's name is Zhang Baozhu..."
…”
A woman standing nearby said to her, "Then I'll call you Zhang Baozhu's family from now on!"
"Sure!" Guilan responded, laughing, and now she was chatting with someone again.
After waiting for a while, Lin Yutong heard someone ask Guilan: "Whose family does that little daughter-in-law next to you belong to? She's so handsome."
"Her husband is from the security department." Guilan introduced Lin Yutong with great enthusiasm, "You can call her from Jin Laosi's family, or Huniu."
What is it from Jin Laosi’s family?
Lao Si Lao Si, can anyone be called Lao Si?
Not finished yet?
"My husband's name is Jin Yinzhen, and my name is Lin Yutong." She introduced herself to others in a serious manner.
Don't always be the fourth child. Why does it sound so awkward?
Yin Zhen, what is this name?
"It's an endless field." Lin Yutong explained.
Then everyone understands that this has the same meaning as being full of food, and it is the product of parents going crazy because they want to fill their stomachs.
After cutting enough for one cart, Lin Yutong called Guilan, "Can you leave? Send it back and come back again."
Then he sent it back and Lin Yutong stopped coming. Why?
Because when they returned, Qian Siyuan and Cheng Meini were on the other side of Lin Yutong's house, preparing to dig a nest in the ground as well.
The three men each do their own thing, but the three women can cooperate.
Lin Yutong was the best at weaving mats, so she could sit on the edge and weave them. Then Cheng Meini went to find wild hemp. Spring hadn't started yet, and the rain hadn't come down yet. The stuff hadn't soaked yet, so it could be used after peeling it off.
But this job is harder than cutting reeds.
Cheng Meini kept poking Qian Siyuan's back and murmured in a low voice: "I won't go! How scary it is for me to live with a girl in the wilderness."
Qian Siyuan was confused: "There are people everywhere, who can do anything to you. Hurry up."
Really! There are people everywhere.
The fourth master must have chosen this place, on the top of a slope. The house in front is under a small ditch more than ten meters away from his house, and the back is basically leaning against it. If there are people on the back of the slope, the house is back to back with him.
There are a series of problems such as water splashing.
He was digging a hole beside him, and while Lin Yutong was trimming the reeds, he asked him: "Can I make a toilet?"
"Yes." What you can't stand, I can't stand either. Do you have to find a way to use the toilet?
Then he took a stick and scratched on the ground. How big was the room, how big of a table should be left for the bed, and how to plan it so that it could block the wind and be private.
Lin Yutong glanced at it and felt that it was a waste of time.
After arranging the reeds, she could cut some shrubs around. She would put the thick ones on the ground and dry them as firewood. She also picked up some dry firewood along the way.
Don’t know where the food is today?
Just when I was wondering how they arranged it, someone pulled a donkey cart came up. The cart was carrying grains, pickles, and ready-made steamed buns and noodles. Aren't you being paid? You have to buy them with money.
But the stuff is cheap and the factory provides subsidies.
You can buy three steamed buns for one penny. But some people find it expensive and choose between big and small ones.
Lin Yutong went over and bought a few steamed buns, a handful of noodles and a small pickle. That's all the food for today.
When eating, put a small piece of pickles on the steamed buns, grill them over the fire and eat them. You can't eat them secretly, as we don't have the conditions now.
After working for a day, I made a mat, because the hemp rope couldn't keep up.
Guilan was so angry that she muttered to Lin Yutong: "We can't cooperate with the Qian family. It's a waste of money."
And what about Fourth Master?
We dug a pit two and a half meters deep, one meter long and one meter wide. When will it be ready?
It turned out to be dark, and a few people came.
When they arrived, they saw Lin Baichuan in casual clothes and two people, Ohara and Ouyuan. The three of them were silent. No one knew each other, and no one knew that they were looking for Lin Yutong and Fourth Master along the way.
Da?? said: "It's not far from home. It's better to go back home than live here. What are you doing?"
Lin Baichuan picked up the shovel: "Stop talking nonsense and hurry up. We may not be able to dig it out tonight."
Working overtime?
Okay!
Anyway, there are quite a few people working overtime. Otherwise, it’s not even the first lunar month and people would freeze to death at night.
Using kerosene lamps to illuminate it, the four of us worked on empty stomachs for most of the night before we finally had a rough shape. The rest of the work was to repair the slope and build the shed, which was not a big job.
Ohara said, "I'll come back in the evening. I'll pick up everything and tidy it up for you."
When we left, it was still dark.
Lin Yutong and Fourth Master went to see him off, but halfway along the way, Lin Baichuan stopped. Lin Yutong followed his line of sight and saw a girl curled up next to an extinguished fire.
Bu, it's not Lin Xiaoxing.
When someone approached, she jumped up as if frightened.
When she saw the person in front of her, she was stunned, lowered her head and called out: "Dad."
Lin Baichuan looked at the shovel at her feet and asked, "Where is your area of responsibility?"
Lin Xiaoxing was stunned for a moment, then quickly pointed to the most unseemly place to dig, "There... right there..."
Lin Baichuan blew twice on the palm of his hand, rubbed it, picked up the shovel and started working.
Ohara stood there for a long time, but finally he took the guy and passed over. As soon as he moved, Ohara came over, and the fourth master helped to unload the soil. Four grown men helped, and it was almost done in an hour.
When the sky turned a little white, Lin Baichuan stopped, looked at his two sons smiling, and then said to Lin Yutong and Fourth Master: "Okay, let's go back. We're leaving now." Before leaving, he glanced at Lin Xiaoxing:
"If you can't stand it, go home."
What do you mean? Looking at Lin Baichuan walking away, Lin Xiaoxing said: "You just look down on me. I just want to make a show to show you."
This kid is even more energetic.
Lin Yutong didn't pay attention to her. She was really tired now. It was still cold in the morning and she didn't want to sleep. The two of them put up the ceiling. They spread the mat from yesterday first, then mixed it with mud and added a layer on top.
Another layer of wiping was applied, and finally withered grass was added, layer by layer, thick and solid, and the general appearance was obtained. What pleased Lin Yutong the most was that the fourth master even reserved a skylight for the ceiling.
There is a movable shed above the skylight, which can not only protect against wind and rain, but also transmit light.
This den is in the shape of a return. When you go in downhill, you will be blocked at the end. You have to turn and walk through the corridor. You will then go to the end of the corridor and turn again to reach the room.
The fourth master said: "Pull out a window on the wall on both sides to ensure ventilation." When it's cold, block it up to keep out the cold!
The front of the shack and the two sides of the slope leading into the shack are separated by earth walls. One side of the slope is the kitchen and the other side is the toilet.
You can do whatever you want in the kitchen, but the key is the toilet. You don’t have to run everywhere to go to the toilet.
Then we put a roof on the kitchen and toilet, and Lin Yutong was generally satisfied.
An aqua toilet is an aqua toilet. As long as it is cleaned at any time, it can actually be kept very clean.
Although the place is not big, the planning is really good. Groups of people come in to visit, and there is no time to sleep during the day. The fourth master is tidying up the corners. Lin Yutong continues to weave mats.
The man next to me, Zhang Baozhu, was a blacksmith. He was a good guy and had a lot of strength. After people saw how they did it, they were stunned to build a bigger one than this one over the course of a day and night.
Guilan smiled loudly, as if she was competing with someone: "I like a big place, a bigger one!"
Someone joked: "Sister-in-law Guilan, just sleep at night. What do you want in that spacious place? What's going on? The trouble is quite intense at night."
"What a fool you are!" Guilan scolded her back, not forgetting to show off, "I'm a man who can do anything, what's wrong?"
Cheng Meini muttered on the side: "Who are you? It sounds so ugly." Then she complained to Qian Siyuan, "Look at their place, and then look at ours?"
Lin Yutong went to see the sleeping table set aside by his family so that he could weave mats according to the size. When he went in and took a look, he felt uncomfortable.
The depth is less than 1.5 meters, so you have to bend your waist to get in. You can't stand straight when you get in. There's only enough room in front of the table to put a pair of shoes, and there's no place to turn around.
Just go down the slope and there is just enough space for people to stay, but there is no place to go. There is a dirt platform for sleeping, and it is only as big as a single bed. If two people live there, it will be crowded.
"This is so frustrating." Lin Yutong hurriedly finished the mat that was only half-weaved in his hand. If they spread out only this half, it would be too big.
"That's good." Qian Siyuan stretched out his hands for Lin Yutong to look at, "It hurts me to death."
There are blood blisters on one hand.
There's nothing you can do about it, no one cares about helping whom. If you want to settle down, there's too much work.
The fourth master was sitting down below, building a simple mud chimney for the fireplace. Lin Yutong was nesting in the small kitchen, building an earthen stove and setting up a chopping board. After that, there were still messy things around the bed.
It's a very compact week to settle in.
Ohara and Ouyuan came over to help for a while every night. When everything was almost tidied up, they brought three sheepskin mattresses. "Dad found two old sheepskin jackets. Mom and Naigai
After a few days, it was changed into three mattresses to put under the body."
There must be a bed for Lin Xiaoxing.
Lin Yutong picked it up and sent it to her one night. There were eight girls in a dormitory over there, and she slept in the farthest position. This position was not good. Not only was there a damp soil platform under her body, but also behind her.
Damp walls.
Lin Yutong gave her the mattress, then turned back and brought the military canvas wrapped in the sheepskin mattress to her: "This thing is also moisture-proof. It can be fixed on the wall to serve as a wall fence."
After Lin Yutong left, a guy from the dormitory asked Lin Xiaoxing: "Who is that? Do you know him? He has a sheepskin mattress and a wall surround? He is so nice to you! Are you a relative of yours?"
"What relative?" Lin Xiaoxing took the things and packed up, "That's my sister."
Lin Yutong heard "my sister" outside, and immediately felt dumbfounded. What do you think we can do about this?
Okay! Let her sister be her sister.
After a week of settling-in time, employees officially return to work.
The fourth master left early in the morning, what can Lin Yutong do?
When they went out, they saw Guilan and Cheng Meini doing nothing at the door. Of course, everyone was unemployed and didn't know what to do.
Guilan rolled up her trouser legs and asked, "Would you like to go fishing? There must be fish in the ditch. I didn't bother cutting the reeds that day. If you go now, you can definitely catch them."
Cheng Meini patted the dirt on her body and turned around to go back.
Lin Yutong took the things and locked the fence door of his house, "Then go."
As a result, Cheng Meini caught up not long after walking. She didn't say anything and just followed.
Guilan said: "We can't be idle all the time. If there is no work in their factory, we have to go around and see if there is any place to work. It doesn't matter if we don't make money, even if it's just a meal?"
"
This idea is very realistic, that's the truth.
As we talked all the way, we arrived at the edge of the ditch. The water was very shallow, and the depth was no more than our knees. It was just too cold today, and no one wanted to go into the water.
In Lin Yutong's hand was a densely packed net bag, and she wouldn't do it in the water.
As a result, before I even got into the water, I saw many people setting up nets. I vaguely heard two women talking.
One said: "Stop doing this troublesome thing and hurry up and cook. There are so many people waiting to eat, how long are you going to wait?"
Another said: "We are short of manpower. We have to cook and heat water. Even if one person has four hands, he can't make it."
Lin Yutong couldn't help but murmured: "Maybe there is a shortage of people in the logistics canteen." Her steps were two minutes faster.
After Guilan heard this, she quickly put down her trousers and patted the dirt on her body: Canteen? This place is full of oil and water.
"Why are you running?" Cheng Meini muttered as she followed Guilan: "It's useless if you keep running. That tiger girl looks like the same thing as us. In fact, they are two different things. She has a trick.
Teacher's father, do you have one? Even if you can make radish into delicacies, it's impossible for others to use you. Why are you running away? Don't worry!"
"What?" Guilan looked at Cheng Meini: "Teacher? You said her father is the teacher?"
"Isn't that right?" Cheng Meini fumed, "The ones who dug a nest for her that night were her father and her two brothers. I'm from the same village as them. I don't know yet?"
"Then why doesn't her father find a job for her?" Guilan was dubious.
"Isn't he selfless on the surface?" Cheng Meini said coolly, "We are ordinary people, who knows what those people mean behind the scenes? If you don't believe me, look at it, whose job is it in the end?"
"That's not possible." Guilan immediately glared, "What happened to the teacher's daughter? Now that we have been liberated and everyone is equal, can the teacher's daughter still have special privileges? If that were the case, I would dare to go out and cause trouble.
of."
So Lin Yutong was talking to someone, but this person said: "She is the teacher's daughter. If you are biased towards her, we will ask the factory leaders to respond..."
Everyone: "..." The teacher's daughter? We don't know. She just tells us how to catch fish quickly.
