Chapter 157 Cattle Driving Skills
"That's good now. The people who are repairing the house are kind enough to feel more at ease. Let's quickly take all the food back. Don't let the snow get the food wet, as it will easily get moldy." Wu Guifang reminded everyone while looking at everyone's food.
Everyone took Wu Guifang's words to heart and started moving the food.
Needless to say, it is very easy for male comrades to move these grains.
With the help of Comrade Yu Zhiyu, Liu Yao found it not a big problem to get this amount of food.
Yu Zhiyu also took on the heaviest sweet potatoes of Chen Yechu, and she could carry the rest.
Ning Xiyue had her own strength and could lift it up with just a pull without any effort at all.
"But how can we move so many back?" Wang Mengmeng looked at the bag of sweet potatoes at her feet with a frown.
Although she didn't have much food, she didn't have much strength either. On this point, she was very self-aware and knew her own weight.
She could handle one bag of food, but three bags combined would be beyond her capacity. Unless she moved them back in batches, who would help her guard the remaining food?
"Mengmeng, I can help you move it." Xia Zhipeng came over happily and said with a lick on his face.
"roll."
Wang Mengmeng gritted her teeth and picked up the food in front of her, determined not to let the dirty Xia Zhipeng touch it and defile her food.
Don't mention it, she actually brought it up.
Seeing this scene, Ning Xiyue couldn't help but sigh at the huge potential of human beings.
It was just that Wang Mengmeng had a hard time carrying the bicycle, and she walked very slowly, almost crawling. If an ant saw her, they would turn around and laugh at her before leaving.
Zhao Jianshe saw Wang Mengmeng’s face flushed red. It would take a long time for them to move to the Youth Hostel. He shook his head helplessly:
"Wait a moment, I'll go see if I can borrow a cart. If I can, we can all bring it back on one cart, and it can save time."
He knew it was difficult to borrow a cart at this time, but he could only try it.
Wu Guifang: "Sure, go and have a look. We'll be waiting for you under this roof."
"Thank you, comrade Jianshe."
Wang Mengmeng immediately thanked him, quickly put down the food in her hand, and rubbed her sore arm to try not to embarrass herself.
Liu Yao also breathed a sigh of relief. Although they didn't have much food, it would be difficult for her cousin to carry all the food for three people.
Ning Xiyue, who had already put her hands on her three bags of grain, silently put down her hands. Since she could get a ride, there was no need for her to waste her energy carrying the grain herself.
After a walk around, Zhao Jianshe came back and still couldn't find the cart.
It was the busy time for moving grain, and carts were in great demand. Many people had already made arrangements with people who had carts to use them, so it was difficult to borrow one now.
Wu Guifang had expected this. As an old educated youth, she knew all these things. "It's okay. Just like we used to share food, we can work together, two people can guard it, and take turns to carry it back."
Zhao Jianshe continued: "Let's follow the old method. Let me tell you how to divide it..."
After much hesitation, Ning Xiyue decided to leave the team and go on her own, carrying her three bags of food and setting off easily.
"I'm leaving first and going back to greet Uncle Dajian."
He left a few words and walked out in a casual manner.
"Xiyue is so strong. When will I be able to have such strength?" Wang Mengmeng pinched her arms and legs and said enviously.
Liu Yao answered her seriously: "Then you should run more and exercise more. I see Xiyue exercises frequently."
"Really? Then I'll exercise more when I get back."
Zhao Jianshe coughed and brought the topic back to business: "Come, let me divide the work first. Wang Mengmeng and Liu Yao will stay here first. We will take a batch back first, and then..."
"ah."
Zhao Jianshe was interrupted again and looked helplessly at the screaming Liu Yao, "What happened this time?"
Liu Yao was so excited that she danced with joy and pointed forward: "No need to divide the work, look, Xiyue is coming with a bullock cart, ah, Xiyue is so handsome."
Upon hearing this, the other educated youth turned their heads to look over.
I saw Ning Xiyue pulling the rope and leading the team's old yellow ox towards this side, and Aunt Yang Liu was sitting on the ox cart with a smile on her face at the back.
Ning Xiyue stopped the ox cart in front of the stunned educated youth, turned the ox around, parked it, and got off the cart. Seeing that everyone had not yet come to their senses, she snapped her fingers and chuckled, "Hey, everyone come to your senses, hurry up and move it up, Auntie is waiting for it."
"Coming, coming." Wang Mengmeng responded most actively, pulling Liu Yao beside her to carry food onto the cart.
After walking over, she and Liu Yao were still blowing flattery together.
Liu Yao was the first to see Ning Xiyue driving over in the snow. She was so excited that after moving the food, she looked at her with stars in her eyes: "Xiyue, you are so awesome. You drove the ox cart directly over here. You are so cool."
"I admire you." After putting his food away, Zhao Jianshe bowed to Ning Xiyue.
Chen Yechu came over to thank him: "Thank you, Xiyue, I am grateful for you today."
The rest of the people also came to express their excitement and gratitude.
All the words of excitement and gratitude had been said by the people in front. Comrade Wang Jiandong was the last one to speak. I didn’t know what else to say.
Wang Jiandong suddenly had an idea.
He started by praising her: "Ah! Comrade Xiyue, my admiration for you is like the endless waves of a river..."
Ning Xiyue was so embarrassed when she heard the first exclamation that she tapped her toes on the ground. When he raised his hand to say the next word "ah", she stopped him in time: "Stop, speak human language."
Wang Jiandong regained his serious expression for a second, bowed to Ning Xiyue and thanked her: "Okay, thank you."
Aunt Yang Liu stood aside and watched, and was amused by his series of actions: "You are a good boy, very interesting."
"Aunt, it's my honor to make you laugh, and thank you for lending us the car." Wang Jiandong stood in front of Aunt Yang Liu and thanked her seriously.
"No need to thank me, I lent it to Yue girl, just thank her."
Aunt Yang Liu smiled and waved, then turned to look at Ning Xiyue, "Girl Yue, I'll be waiting for you here, don't worry, take your time."
She is still very confident in Ning Xiyue's cattle herding skills.
"Okay, thank you, Auntie. I'll go back first."
Ning Xiyue sat on the ox cart, waved to Aunt Yang Liu, pulled the rope tightly, and drove the oxen seriously.
The other educated youth trotted closely behind the ox cart.
Liu Yao transformed into Ning Xiyue's little fangirl and said admiringly: "Xiyue, I didn't expect you to be so good at herding cattle, you are amazing."
Wang Mengmeng agreed: "That's right, you are just like our Comrade Lei Feng, you are so good at herding cattle."
"Don't flatter me, both of you. This is all thanks to Aunt Yang Liu. You should praise Aunt Yang Liu instead."
If you want to know why Ning Xiyue was driving the cattle, we have to go back to when she left with the food. She opened the daily sign-in to see if she could sign out the last space upgrade material point.
Who would have thought that I would get a skill called cattle herding that I could learn immediately after signing it out.
Just then, Aunt Yang Liu came over driving a ox cart and helped her pull the food.
Ning Xiyue discussed it with Aunt Yang Liu, and learned the rhyme of driving cattle from Aunt Yang Liu. This led to the scene at the beginning where she drove the ox cart in front of the educated youths in the Youth House.
The cows in the brigade were relatively docile, and Ning Xiyue's skills in herding cows became more and more proficient. She drove the cows out of the Youth League compound without any effort.
"Hurry up and move the food in. I'll take the cow back to my aunt."
After getting off the bus, Ning Xiyue fed the cows with the prepared dry grass while speaking to the educated youth who followed behind.
"Okay, thank you Xiyue." Wu Guifang took a deep breath and nodded, moving the food from the cart.
After Chen Yechu finished moving his own food, he looked at Ning Xiyue for advice: "Xiyue, can I help you move your food in? Can I put it in my kitchen for the time being?"
"Okay, thank you. I'll go over first and come back to see you."
After unloading all the food from the ox cart, Ning Xiyue drove the oxen back to the team and handed the oxen and ox cart intact to Aunt Yang Liu. She thanked her again and made an appointment to make clothes together before leaving.
When Ning Xiyue returned to the Youth League Home again, Uncle Dajian was already there. One by one, the educated youths surrounded Uncle Dajian and asked him questions with serious expressions.
