He Wan recently received food distribution. With her small area of ​​land, she received a total of more than 20 yuan, 120 kilograms of cornmeal, and 100 kilograms of sweet potatoes. Even if she ate one kilogram of food a day, this cornmeal could last her more than 100 days. If it was a little thinner, it could last her 150 days. Well, she would have to find the rest herself. Su Ranran, Zhang Cuicao and other educated youth all paid extra money to buy some food from the brigade.

She saw that every household in the village asked for soybeans, so she asked for seven pounds of soybeans, fifty pounds of potatoes, and two pounds of flour.

"Sister Cuicao, I met Aunt Juhua and Aunt Chen yesterday, and found that they were both making soybean paste. Did our educated youths make it in previous years?"

"No one made it in previous years, so we bought it from the people in the village who made a lot."

"I received seven kilograms of soybeans and plan to make them myself. Do you want to do it?"

Zhang Cuicao nodded in agreement. In previous years, everyone ate together and no one cooked. Now, it was just her and Su Ranran.

In order to eat better, of course we have to make it, not to mention that she knows how to pickle vegetables. There are also cabbages and radishes. The radishes will be picked in a week and will be divided by then. Let's pickle the sauerkraut ourselves."

Su Ranran said, "Just pickle it yourself, we don't have to spend money to buy it. I'll go buy some soybeans later. I saw Er Shuanzi's family pickled two large jars. There are six adults and three children in their family. How much green grass should we pickle?"

Zhang Cuicao said, "One small jar is enough for the two of us."

He Wan looked at the cabbages and radishes in her vegetable garden. There were quite a few of them, enough to make sauerkraut.

Every family here has a big yard, and many of them grow vegetables in their yards, so they have no shortage of vegetables. They have a firewood shed and a vegetable plot in the front yard of the youth camp, and several families have built a firewood shed in the backyard, but they have planned how much space each family has. Except for the firewood shed, they plant vegetables in the remaining land.

These are all learned from He Wan and Zhang Cuicao. Xie Meihui and her friends planted green onions and ginger in the small area in front of the house except for the back.

The male educated youth could not plan anything except fetching water and chopping firewood. Later, He Wan and Wang Jianguo talked about dividing the vegetable plots into different types. From the front yard to the back yard, there is a large area on the left.

There was a vegetable plot and a toilet over there. The distance was not small. On Xie Meihui's side, there was a firewood shed next to the toilet, and on He Wan's side, there was a bathroom. The rest of the plot was divided into twelve rectangular vegetable plots, with a road in the middle and vegetable plots on both sides. To be fair, they were all long strips, 70 to 80 centimeters wide and more than three meters long.

In the backyard, everyone divided the vegetable plot and gave two plots to Xie Meihui and Qin Xuxiang.

Chen Qing had one piece, Su Ranran and Zhang Cuicao had one piece each, and Wang Xiaorong and the other three had one piece each.

He Wan planted one piece, leaving three pieces. Xie Meihui planted another piece, leaving two pieces. Chen Qing also planted one piece, and the remaining three were given to Wang Xiaorong.

Xie Meihui and Chen Qing didn't think anything of it, but Wang Xiaorong felt embarrassed.

After all, He Wan helped them plan. There is a piece of land behind the house and another piece of land in front of the house. These lands are enough for them to have enough vegetables to eat all year round.

Su Ranran didn't want that piece of land, mainly because she saw that Wang Xiaorong and her three grown men ate a lot, so she didn't compete with them. The two of them had one piece of land in front and one behind the house, which was enough for their daily vegetables.

There is an open space of three or four meters on the left side of the front yard.

He Wan left some space for a road and divided that area into seven plots. The area was large, and the vegetable plots were also large.

Divide it into seven pieces first, and when new educated youth come, divide it again. Then you can sort it out yourself.

Dear friends, countdown to the New Year 　　 　 (end of this chapter)
