These days are the time for Murakami to pay public grain, and all the registered and graded grain is sent to the grain station in trucks.
After the public grain is collected, what remains in the storage room are seeds for next year's sowing, grain for year-end settlement, and the village's reserve grain.
After the village chief saw that this major task was completed, he asked the village cadres to help calculate the total work points of the 120 households in the village for one year.
Then add up the grain and find out how much food each person should get this year.
Zhao Ming became busy again, following the village cadres to do accounting work every day.
Cao Zhaodi, who is living in the hospital, has a very bad temper.
He always scolded Sun Fangfen for every little thing. If her hands weren't tied up with a board, he would definitely hit her.
After a few days, Sun Fangfen looked much more haggard.
It is also difficult to sleep well in the hospital. You can only sleep on the floor, and you can’t sleep too deeply, otherwise Cao Zhaodi will get up at night.
Cao Zhaodi can't get out of bed now, and she has to do all her pee and poop in bed.
She also had to endure Cao Zhaodi's verbal abuse from time to time. Under the double torture of physical and mental torture, Sun Fangfen's eyes were dull.
Hu Defu replied to the letter, and Hu Jiaoqiao took the letter to the hospital to visit Cao Zhaodi, which made Sun Fangfen feel relieved for a moment.
With Hu Jiaoqiao around, Cao Zhaodi feels more normal.
Hu Jiaoqiao read the letter to Cao Zhaodi. When Cao Zhaodi heard that her son could not come back to see her, she couldn't help feeling sad and disappointed.
Hu Jiaoqiao comforted her softly.
Sun Fangfen saw this from the side and cursed in her heart.
He talks nicely and says he's too busy to come, but he really can't come.
To put it bluntly, he just doesn't want to come. If he really wants to come, his mother is in such a state that the factory and the supply and marketing cooperative will not approve his leave.
Even if the old ones don’t come, the young ones can still come and take a look.
Will the school not give me leave?
They are all black-hearted. When something happens, it is the family that has to bear the responsibilities and she takes care of them.
Her precious daughter who lived in the county town only came to see her twice.
If the third room hadn't sent a letter today, it would have been impossible for her to come.
This damn old woman just couldn't understand. She worked so hard to look after her, but she didn't give any benefits or good face to her. She was really blind.
Sun Fangfen was muttering in anger in her heart, and her resentment towards Cao Zhaodi grew deeper.

While everyone was plowing the fields, turning the soil and planting spring wheat, Hu Lin went up the mountain and restored all the traps he had set before.
And two more traps were added, making a total of ten.
After the rainy season comes winter, so we need to stock up some goods in advance to survive the winter.
The mountain products were picked up very cleanly. No one came to the mountain in the past few days, and it returned to its previous quiet state.
After Hu Xiaoyi started working, the task of cooking fell on Hu Lin.
She is short and can only stand on a stool to cook, and every time she cooks it feels like a battle.
The taste of the food he made was similar to that of Hu Xiaoyi. Fortunately, after eating Hu Xiaoyi's cooking for a few days, Hu Lin did not dislike his own cooking skills.
Li Aihua could only stay on the kang bed. With nothing to do, she could only do handicrafts every day.
Prepare winter shoes for a family of three.
It's almost done.
These days, Hu Xiaoyi gets up early in the morning to chop firewood in the mountains, makes fences at noon, and fences the yard in the afternoon.
Over time, the outline of the yard took shape.
After the spring wheat was planted, everyone had some free time again, and the working hours returned to their lowest times.
The only work on the fields at this time was plowing and turning the soil, so the cows that Lao Zheng usually raised were always busy.
There is always something to do when you are free. With the arrival of the rainy season, everyone's focus is on their own private plots.
Sweet potatoes, potatoes, corn, cabbage, etc. are all ripe. Those that need to be stored in the cellar can be put in the cellar, and those that need to be pickled can be pickled.
Then the land was turned over and some cold-resistant vegetables were planted for the winter.
Another thing is to go up the mountain to chop firewood.
There are no such worries at home this year. Hu Xiaoyi's focus is on fencing off the yard and building chicken and duck sheds.
When he had completely free time and was not working, he worked hard to finish the yard in December before the year-end settlement.
The firewood for the winter filled the entire roof and was piled up as high as half the wall.
I don’t know if it’s because of this time of year, when the animals are also stockpiling food for the winter, but the Hulin Trap has produced a good harvest.
Li Aihua is ill, so all these things can only be handled by Hu Xiaoyi.
Hu Xiaoyi was not as easily fooled as Li Aihua. When he saw the animals' wounds, he asked Hu Lin.
Hu Lin still used the excuse of "he was killed by some unknown animal" to evade Hu Xiaoyi.
Hu Xiaoyi naturally wouldn't believe it, and when he asked further, Hu Lin had to bring up the bet to suppress Hu Xiaoyi.
The time for grain distribution at the end of the year was approaching, and the deadline for their bet had expired.
Hu Lin holds the final say in the family, so Hu Xiaoyi naturally has no say.
Just to say that the dense forest deep in the Daqing Mountains is full of dangers, Hu Lin had to consider his own weight and realized that he was not enough to fight against the large animals in the mountains.
Hu Lin was too lazy to pay attention to Hu Xiaoyi and didn't talk to him about these trivial things. He just let Hu Xiaoyi pickle the game under the command of Li Aihua.
Li Aihua directed Hu Xiaoyi to process the newly acquired wild rabbit fur.
After it dries, she can use it to make some linings and wear it next to the skin to keep warm in the winter.
After more than two months of bed rest, Li Aihua's broken leg has now recovered.
But she was still in a splint and couldn't use it, so Hu Xiaoyi made her a crutch, which she supported under her armpits and was able to walk around.
Li Aihua hadn't been out of the field for a long time, and this made her very happy. If Hu Lin hadn't been watching her, she would have walked around without stopping for a moment.
After a few days, it was time for the year-end settlement.
The villagers went to the storage room in batches to collect food, money and tickets.
Considering that it was inconvenient to go to the county town after snowing and winter, the Hu family took Cao Zhaodi back home to take care of her.
