Zi Li, who was innocently caught in the crossfire, blinked and quickly recovered from his shock. Could he say that he didn't expect to hear such bizarre remarks?
He just heard from his friends that the captain's daughter came here to see the bridge construction, and seemed to have talked about immigration or something, so he couldn't wait to eavesdrop.
Who would have thought that after listening for so long, this is all I heard?
Seeing Shu Miao giving him a cold look and about to leave, he didn't bother to keep her in suspense any longer. He hurriedly grabbed her and whispered two words in her ear, "Immigration!"
Now it was Shu Miao's turn to widen his eyes. He quickly glanced at Jiang Xunfang following his gaze and thought, this is unlikely, right?
This guy looks quite smart, doesn't he look like a fool?
Seeing that she didn't believe him, Zili wanted to explain again, but she raised her hand to hold him down.
Although Shu Miao was not sure where Zi Li heard the news, he knew that this guy was quite reliable at critical moments.
Since you're already here, just stay and wait and see. Even if the other party doesn't bring up this topic, it doesn't matter. At most, it's just a waste of time.
The two of them patiently eavesdropped on their chatter about marriage for a long time, and finally heard the key words.
Someone murmured with deep regret, "I don't know if we can still be in the same team in the future..."
"Don't worry about that. When I left this morning, I heard my dad and the others talking about building a dam upstream. Our riverside brigade will definitely not be dispersed!"
"That's right, otherwise why would they go to so much trouble to build the bridge?"
Upon hearing this, Shu Miao and Zi Li felt a pang of fear in their hearts.
No way?
If the Yanhe Brigade is not disbanded, is there really any hope for the Shu family alone to immigrate?
The two looked at each other uneasily, then turned their gaze to the wooden bridge being built at the bottom of the cliff, and somehow felt a little more at ease.
The two of them calmed down a bit and continued to eavesdrop on the conversation. Unexpectedly, the conversation turned around and turned to the issue of marriage, and they even showed signs of leaving.
Sure enough, after a girl said that she wanted to ask the PLA comrades how the water dam upstream was doing, a group of people left laughing and joking.
Only Shu Miao and Zi Li were left, looking at each other, and finally they ran towards the resettlement point at the same time.
They need to tell their aunt/mother the news as soon as possible so that they can make preparations early. It would be best if they could take this opportunity to move out on their own!
Who would have thought that after both of them had been gone for a long time, when they came back, the aunt was still chatting animatedly with Wang Feng.
Li Qiao naturally noticed that the two children looked a little strange, but this was a good opportunity to chat with Wang Feng, and she didn't want to miss such a good opportunity.
He calmly gave the two of them a look, asking them to postpone their conversation.
The two of them received her eye signal and immediately understood.
Although he was indeed anxious to tell her the news as soon as possible, he did not want to interfere with her relationship with Wang Feng at this time. After all, the success or failure of the immigration matter depended largely on Wang Feng.
Although it is not appropriate to expect others to help you just after you meet them, the Shu family has no people, no money, and no power, so they can only resort to this last resort.
After all, no matter how good your connections are, they are not as good as the opportunity that comes from heaven right now.
If it is true as Jiang Xunfang said, that the Yanhe Brigade needs to be rebuilt, every household must provide labor to build houses.
The Shu family only has one adult, the aunt. No matter how capable she is, she cannot be used as a laborer.
In this case, who would be willing to build a house for the Shu family?
As for the fact that the team's work points were not enough to cover their expenses, given Captain Jiang's character, he would definitely not agree to them giving work points on credit to the members as compensation.
So what if I agree?
The family already had foreign debts that had not been paid off, and now they owed a large amount of work points, making life even more difficult!
Although Shu Miao did not go to work, she saw the hard work of the aunt. Success or failure depended on this one move. She had to do it, otherwise she could only wait to fall into the abyss!
Thinking of this, Shu Miao's eyes became more determined. Suddenly, something flashed in her mind and she immediately had an idea.
He immediately pulled Zili and motioned him to follow him.
When she returned to her own shelter, she took out the sack of grain from her luggage without saying a word.
He untied the sack's tie, reached his hand directly into the middle of the sack, and carefully felt the temperature inside. His eyes lit up instantly.
“It’s sprouting!”
Zili was confused and thought to himself, what's the point of letting the millet sprout? By the time he didn't finish eating it, it would all go moldy.
When he thought about not being able to finish the food, an idea suddenly came to his mind.
Unlike her who tested the temperature of the millet, he directly grabbed a handful of millet and crushed it hard in his hands. The husks were quickly removed, and the rice sprouts had indeed turned green.
If you expose it to strong sunlight at this time, you can still save some of it, but at most it will not taste good when eaten later.
But this is the wilderness, and the ground is covered with water and yellow mud, so there is no place to dry the clothes.
The wet millet coupled with the high temperature of the sun will probably all sprout before tomorrow!
In this case, there is only one solution, which is to eat all the millet today.
The three of them definitely cannot finish all the food. If they send it to the kitchen to make porridge, although it cannot feed the entire rescue team, everyone can still get a bowl of porridge.
Then there is Wang Feng, a family member, who talks about what happened to the Shu family. Anyone with a little common sense can foresee what kind of difficulties the Shu family will face in the future.
Even if they fail to immigrate, the captain will be monitored by the higher-ups for a period of time because of this matter. As long as they can get through the initial period, the rest will be easy.
Anyway, this grain was picked up for free, so it would be perfect to use it to offer as a gift to Buddha!
It’s just that it’s a little difficult to husk millet, especially the millet that has been softened by water, which is not suitable for pounding with a pestle and mortar.
Seeing Zi Li frowning in thought, Shu Miao didn't dare to disturb him and waited for him to come up with a suitable way to remove the shell.
Although she has been here for almost a year, she is just an outsider after all. Although many times she has more creative ideas and different insights because she has seen a different world.
But when it comes to traditional crafts, she is still relatively slow.
For example, when it comes to cooking, she can only ensure that the food is cooked, but whether it tastes good or not is none of her business.
But being independent is different, because I have been helping with cooking at home since I was a child, and my cooking skills are even better than my aunt's.
Maybe it’s because he has always received positive feedback, and he does have some talent in cooking, and he is quite good at tinkering with food.
As for the aspect of shelling grains, it can be vaguely connected to cooking. Maybe Zili has a different idea?
“Got it!”
Shu Miao's eyes suddenly lit up, and he stared at Zili, waiting for his next words.
I sighed in my heart, hard work really pays off!
