Lin Qi traveled from the apocalypse to the 1960s, entering the body of a starved simpleton. It took her half a year to fully control this body that wasn't originally hers; her movements were sl...
Chapter 146 I'll Give You a Baby
Xu Hexiao, Lao Yi and two others who also participated in ideological reform had a delicious dinner after returning home. However, Jiang Wanwan knocked on the door for five minutes, but the people inside ignored her. Finally, Jian Tong opened the door.
As soon as Jiang Wanwan saw Jian Tongyi, she fell towards him. Jian Tongyi wanted to push him away, but when she touched Jiang Wanwan's hands, she was shocked by the temperature of her body, "You have a fever!"
Jiang Wanwan hummed, self-deprecatingly, and smiled bitterly, "Jian Tongyi, I didn't expect that the person who would open the door in the end would be you."
Jian Tongyi automatically blocked Jiang Wanwan's words and shouted to the people at the educated youth point, "Someone come and help. Jiang Wanwan has a fever and her clothes are still wet."
Jian Tongyi's voice was very loud, but no one in the educated youth center responded. Jian Tongyi's face turned dark, and he dragged Jiang Wanwan back to the small warehouse.
From the day Jiang Wanwan was taken away by the Revolutionary Committee, the four girls, Ma Guizhi, Gan Tian, Feng Qian and Zhu Qing, formed a united front and moved Jiang Wanwan's bed and her things to the small warehouse that same day.
Jiang Wanwan watched Jian Tong lead her to the small warehouse. She didn't understand anything, and her heart and eyes were cold.
Why can Lin Qi accept Xu Hexiao, who is in the black five categories, but no one is willing to accept her?
Jian Tong sent Jiang Wanwan to the small warehouse, and when she stood firm, he turned around and went out, "I'll go boil some hot water. If you need it, go get it yourself."
That night, Jiang Wanwan was dizzy with fever, her whole body ached, and she had difficulty breathing. She even thought she would die quietly in this small room.
But she managed to get through it.
When she woke up, it was already bright outside.
The other people at the educated youth site had already woken up, and their voices gradually reached Jiang Wanwan's ears.
"She is a bad element now and shouldn't live in the educated youth camp." The person who spoke was Ma Guizhi.
"The bad guys all live in the cowshed, but it's not a good idea for a girl like her to move there," Mo Mingyang hesitated.
"It would be a bad idea for her to move to the cowshed. Is it better for her to live in the educated youth camp?" Ma Guizhi asked back.
"I don't want to live with her. She is lazy, spoiled, has a bad temper, and always likes to order people around. I've had enough of her." Feng Qian's tone was aggrieved, as if she was a poor little thing being bullied by Jiang Wanwan.
"Bad elements are not qualified to live in the educated youth camp. The cowshed is her destiny." Zhu Qing said righteously.
"In fact, even if we agree to let Jiang Wanwan live in the educated youth camp, the team leader and the team members will not agree." Gan Tian said.
"In that case, let's go ask the captain." Ming Kangjian said.
“........”
Jiang Wanwan didn't come out of the room until there was no sound outside. There was no trace of blood on her face. She hadn't eaten for a day and a night, and her stomach felt very uncomfortable.
She had no time to think about moving away from the educated youth site. Now there was only one thing on her mind: finding food.
However, after searching around, she found nothing inside!
Those people didn't even cook her!
Jiang Wanwan couldn't find anything to eat, so she could only drink two bowls of water, then make a fire and cook something for herself.
When Jiang Wanwan finished cooking the porridge, Ming Kangjian and others brought the team leader.
Jiang Wanwan was drinking porridge. She glanced at the person who came in and said nothing.
"Jiang Wanwan, your background is problematic now. It is not suitable for you to continue living in the educated youth camp. I will give you five days to choose a location to build a house and then move out of the educated youth camp." said the team leader.
"I don't know how to build a house." Jiang Wanwan said lightly.
"I can ask someone to teach you, or you can ask someone to help you build it." said the captain.
"I have no money, I don't know how to hunt, and I can't afford the reward." Jiang Wanwan refused bluntly and put forward another condition, "I don't want a thatched house, it's not safe. I want to build a stone house, or a mud house."
The captain frowned and said, "These two styles are difficult to build. You can't afford the compensation, so you can only build a thatched hut."
"I don't live in a thatched hut." Jiang Wanwan emphasized again.
"Then you pay the compensation and ask someone to build a stone or adobe house for you. If you don't pay the compensation and don't live in the thatched house, and they kick her out of the educated youth site after five days, I won't care." The team leader said coldly, his majestic look made people a little afraid.
Jiang Wanwan finally realized the reality and could only reluctantly ask, "Is it faster to build a stone house or a mud house?"
"A stone house," the captain replied.
"Then please help me hire someone. The reward is 40 cents a day." Jiang Wanwan said. 40 cents is not a lot, but many people in Anliang Brigade cannot earn 40 cents a day.
"Okay." The captain agreed, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. As long as they were willing to pay, that was good enough.
"Please find me the best worker, otherwise I won't have enough money to finish building the house." Jiang Wanwan said half-seriously.
When Lin Qi learned that Jiang Wanwan was coming to be neighbors with Lao Yi and the other two, she was a little speechless. She had come here to avoid the crowds, but now there are more and more people coming.
"If you don't like it, I'll let her choose a new location." said the team leader. The team's orchard still depends on Lin Qi, and he doesn't dare to make Lin Qi unhappy now.
Lin Qi waved her hand indifferently, "Let her do whatever she wants."
If Jiang Wanwan doesn't know what's good for her, she has plenty of ways to deal with her.
"What do you think we can grow in our orchard?" the captain asked, changing the subject.
Lin Qi thought for a while and said, "Peaches, pears and cherries. The climate here is quite suitable. The prices of these three fruits sold in the supply and marketing cooperative are not low. Cherries are especially rare here. If we succeed in growing them, we will be the only ones."
The captain's eyes lit up, "Okay, let's plant these three."
"Can you find fruit seedlings?" Lin Qi asked.
"I can't find it, but the commune should have a way. We must report our plan to plant fruit trees, and we'll mention the fruit seedlings to them. Our high rice yield will give them more confidence in our fruit tree planting. If we succeed in planting fruit trees, it will be a political achievement for the commune." The team leader said, and tentatively asked, "Do you think our fruit trees can be planted successfully?"
Lin Qi rolled her eyes and asked, "What do you think?"
"I'm just not sure. We have planted fruit trees before, but the yield was not high and the taste of the fruit was not that good. I will only have confidence if you give me a definite answer," said the captain.
"Then you'd better not have confidence." Lin Qi said, turned around and left.
Captain: “........”
In less than a day, the entire Anliang Brigade knew that Lin Qi proposed to plant peaches, pears and cherries.
"Peaches are good, peaches are delicious!"
"Snow pears are delicious and can quench thirst. They can be used as fruit and medicine."
"Cherries, can we really grow them? I heard that cherries are very delicate and rarely sold in the supply and marketing cooperatives, and the price is not cheap. If we grow them successfully, won't we be able to make a lot of money?"
"With Lin Qi here, the planting will definitely be successful."
"............"
With an inexplicable trust in Lin Qi, the team members have begun to look forward to the grand harvest in the orchard in a few years.
The team leader found ten people for Jiang Wanwan. All of them were good workers in the Anliang Brigade. They were all honest and kind people who never cheated.
Jiang Wanwan originally wanted to build the house next to Xu Hexiao, right next to Xu Hexiao, but as soon as she proposed it, the team leader refuted it on the spot.
"Why?" Jiang Wanwan was dissatisfied.
"It's not safe. You are an unmarried man and an unmarried woman, so you should keep your distance." The captain said righteously.
"I don't care." Jiang Wanwan said. She wished something could happen between her and Xu Hexiao. She used to look down on Xu Hexiao because of his status as a member of the "five black categories". But in the past two years, Xu Hexiao has grown taller, his facial features have grown, and he is handsome. He is the most eye-catching person in the crowd. Apart from anything else, Xu Hexiao is definitely the most handsome and imposing man she has ever seen.
Even if he is a member of the five black categories!
There were many people who secretly looked at Xu Hexiao, including her.
"But I care," said the captain.
"What do you care about?" Jiang Wanwan was puzzled.
The captain gave Jiang Wanwan a meaningful look and said, "You can't build your house here anyway."
It took Jiang Wanwan seven days to build her house, and she moved into her new house on the eighth day. The people who helped her move were the people from the educated youth center. The people from the educated youth center didn't want to help, but Jiang Wanwan said that if they didn't help, she wouldn't move. The people from the educated youth center saw her shamelessness and could only grit their teeth to help her move.
Jiang Wanwan's house has two rooms, one for sleeping and one for kitchen. Next to the kitchen is a bathroom of less than two square meters. Now that the house is built, it only needs to be surrounded by a fence, and it will be almost the same as other people in Anliang Brigade.
"This house looks nice." Jian Tongyi was somewhat tempted.
"The room is small and can only accommodate one bed. The kitchen is also small, less than five square meters. There is also a small bathroom. It costs thirty-eight yuan to build a house like this, twenty-eight is labor cost, and ten is paid to the brigade for materials." Ming Kangjian said, the material cost was because Jiang Wanwan used the brigade's wood.
If you cut down trees yourself, you need to go deep into the mountains and carry the wood out of the mountains, which will take a long time.
Jian Yitong raised an eyebrow, "You know so much about it, are you planning to build a house?"
Ming Kangjian hummed, "Gan Tian and I are not young anymore, we can start a family."
He and Gan Tian are both twenty years old, and will be twenty-one during the Chinese New Year. Now that there is no hope of returning to the city, it would be better to get married in the countryside first. The matter of returning to the city can only be planned slowly.
A hint of envy flashed across Jane's eyes. It was great to have someone who shared the same feelings with her.
The night Jiang Wanwan moved into her new home, she blocked Xu Hexiao at the door.
"Get out of the way." Xu Hexiao said with impatience.
"Xu Hexiao, give up Lin Qi and choose me. You are a member of the five black categories and Lin Qi is an educated youth. She will not marry you. Even if the whole brigade knows that you are dating, she dare not even make your relationship public. But I am different. I dare to be with you and marry you. If I marry you, I can have children for you. Now in the entire Anliang Brigade, except me, who else dares to have children for you. You are the only one in your Xu family now. You can't let your Xu family be extinct, right?" Jiang Wanwan thought about it for a few days and finally figured out where her advantages lay.
No matter how powerful Lin Qi is, she cannot marry Xu Hexiao and cannot give birth to children for Xu Hexiao. Just based on these two points, it is useless even if Lin Qi is a fairy.
After Jiang Wanwan finished speaking, she looked at Xu Hexiao with full confidence. She was sure that Xu Hexiao would not reject her.
