Chapter 775 Five Zero Miserable Sister-in-Law (8)

  Xu Yin: "..."

   Do you think it is easy to raise seedlings and transplant rice seedlings?

   Not necessarily! not necessarily! Not really!

  Especially for rice transplanting, in the early 1950s when the rice seedlings were transplanted manually, it was necessary to actually bend over. One day after the seedlings are planted, you will find that this waist is not yours anymore.

   Besides, does my sister seem to lack strength?

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

  Everyone: "..."

   "Comrade Xu Yin, how about you reconsider?"

  Captain Fu was afraid that she might have misunderstood, so he specifically repeated the general division of labor among the five groups, and then said:

"You see, the first group is responsible for the pioneering role of the entire team. The task is very heavy, so let's leave it to the male compatriots! The uncultivated wasteland, according to the villagers here, is severely hardened and overgrown with weeds. If you go down, you may even pick up stones, so..."

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

   "..."

  How does this reassure him?

  Look at this thin and thin body, it feels like it will fall when the wind blows.

Xiao Jing has experienced Xu Yin's strength. She can't even carry two bulging luggage. Xu Yin can easily carry it on her shoulders. But after all, it's a girl's house, and she can do easy work, so why not pick it up? , instead of doing heavy work? She couldn't figure it out.

   Captain Fu saw that Xu Yin insisted on choosing the first group, so she had to go.

  I thought that anyway, if he worked for a day tomorrow, he would suffer. Even if he didn't say anything, Xu Yin would come and beg him to change jobs, so let's do it first.

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

   "Comrades, come here today, go back and have a good rest, and work will officially start tomorrow. No matter how hard or tired you are, you must carry on. Do you have confidence?"

"have!"

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

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

  Xu Yin nodded: "There are leeches in the rice fields, but it's still early for seedling transplanting, and the fields haven't bloomed yet, so your five groups should arrange to raise seedlings first."

  Xiao Jing asked suspiciously: "Xu Yin, have you ever farmed land? How do you know everything?"

  Xu Yin smiled and said nothing, thinking that the land that my sister has planted is more than the rice you have eaten!

   "Oops!" Suddenly, Huang Xiaohong patted his forehead, "I forgot to ask the captain when the rations will be distributed. I just brought dry food for a few days, and I almost ate enough on the train."

  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, let's use my food stamps to exchange some rice noodles with fellow villagers."

  Xu Yin said: "You don't need to look for fellow villagers, I'll take them."

  After going back, she took out the rice bag, grabbed two handfuls of brown rice, and took out a sweet potato: "Cook brown rice porridge tonight, and then simmer a sweet potato. Let's share it. Do you think it's okay?"

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

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

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

   "Yes! I got the ration later, and it's the same if I return it to Xu Yin."

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

  The food has been settled, what about the pot and stove?

   "I brought a clay pot, which can be used to cook porridge." Xu Yin took out an old clay pot from an unknown small world from her bag.

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

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

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

   "Not only the stove, but also bundles of firewood. We can't use them in vain." Xu Yin said.

  Huang Xiaohong slumped her shoulders dejectedly: "Why do you even have to borrow firewood? How do you pay back this borrowed?"

   "Chop it up and pay it back!" Xu Yin and Xiao Jing said in unison.

   The two looked at each other and smiled.

  Huang Xiaohong curled her lips. This was too different from what she had imagined, and she regretted signing up for the reclamation team.

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

Aunt Fang saw Xu Yin, a delicate girl, going out with a hatchet in her hand, she twitched the corners of her mouth, and couldn't help but worry and said: "Little Xu, you must hold it tight, don't hit your foot. According to me A bundle of firewood is fine, the firewood at home is enough anyway, let me cut it tomorrow."

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

  Tunli people’s so-called chopping firewood is actually cutting grass on the wasteland.

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

  A large open river meanders through Tunkou, like a silver ribbon on the boundless wasteland, shining in the sunlight.

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

  It’s the end of March, the land is still frozen, the vegetation is still withered, and the winter insects are still stiff...

  The cool spring scene, which is as cold as an ink painting, is completely different from the pleasing peach blossoms and willows in the south of the Yangtze River. This made her feel the magic of nature—

  They are all under the same sky, some places have not escaped the embrace of winter, and some places have already begun to enjoy the enthusiasm of summer...

  Suddenly, a cheerful bright yellow flashed in front of her eyes, that is—roe deer?

  The silly roe deer unique to Northeast China?

  Xu Yin's heart skipped a beat.

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

   She roasted and ate the deer beast meat when she was in Taoyuan, and it tasted amazing. At that time, it was because it was so delicious that she hunted a few of them and stocked them in the system warehouse. She didn't expect it to come in handy now.

   But the wild grass didn't hug much.

  She doesn't care, with this "roe deer", how much firewood can't be replaced? The key is to be able to eat meat openly. Kai Sen!

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

   "Is this a deer?"

   "It does look like a deer."

  As soon as they entered the village, many members of the reclamation team surrounded them.

  They also came out to collect firewood.

  With the help of the villagers’ homes, you have to ask them to borrow pots and stoves. You can’t borrow them for nothing, so you go out together to collect some firewood to pay back the favor.

   Unexpectedly, when I left the village, I saw Xu Yin walking towards me, holding a wild deer that seemed to have just passed out, and my eyes were red with envy:

   "Xu Yin, where did you catch it?"

   "Is there any deer around here to hunt?"

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

   "Xu Yin can hunt, then let's..."

  Xu Yin: "..."

  Brother who said the last sentence, are you polite?
