When I arrived at the scrap collection station, I found it was very quiet. Is there no one guarding it?
Sun Yuqi didn't want to go in without saying hello, so she waited outside the door. After waiting for half an hour, a drunk old man staggered over. When he saw Sun Yuqi, he stopped and looked at her.
"What are you doing here?"
Sun Yuqi frowned and looked at him.
"Uncle, I'm here to find some old newspapers to put up on the wall."
The old man shook his body and said, "Oh, then you go in and look for it yourself. When you find it, come to me." After that, he went straight into the room next to him.
Sun Yuqi nodded and walked into a room in the yard. The room was full of papers, newspapers, books and the like, piled up in a mess.
Sun Yuqi's main purpose is the "Self-study Series of Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry", and she will also look for some recent news in the newspaper so that she can understand current affairs.
I searched for a long time but couldn't find a copy of the "Self-Study Series of Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry". To put it bluntly, this commune is still in the countryside. How could such a book appear here? I must have been possessed by a demon to come here to look for it.
I looked around inside but didn't find anything valuable. As I said, there aren't so many good things in the countryside. Even if there were any, they were probably taken away by people with discerning eyes. Otherwise, how could the old man go out to drink without even closing the door?
I left the house and came to the door of the old man's house.
"Uncle, I've picked it out, come and have a look!"
There was a thud in the house, as if someone fell. Sun Yuqi couldn't resist her curiosity and went into the house. She saw the old man lying on the ground, trying to get up. He tried several times but failed in the end.
Sun Yuqi hurried forward and helped the old man up.
"Uncle, are you okay? Do you want me to take you to the hospital?"
The old man stood up with the help of Sun Yuqi and waved his hand.
"It's okay, the old man just drank too much, nothing was broken, it's okay, girl, you've picked it out, let's go take a look."
Sun Yuqi looked at the stubborn old man without saying a word and helped him out.
The old man looked at Sun Yuqi's things and said, "Give me ten cents!"
Sun Yuqi took out a dime from her pocket and handed it to the old man.
Looking at the time, it was already nine o'clock in the morning, and he said hurriedly.
"Uncle, I'm leaving now. Please be careful not to fall again."
Watching Sun Yuqi walk away, the old man glanced at Sun Yuqi's back with a smile on his face, then turned around and went back into the house, but he didn't look drunk at all.
Sun Yuqi held the newspaper in her hand and soon arrived at the door of the supply and marketing cooperative. However, when she arrived at the door of the supply and marketing cooperative, she also brought out all her pots and pans, put them in a big package and carried it.
As soon as I arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative, I saw Zheng Rongrong coming back with some things.
"Yuqi, did you mail all this? Did you move your whole family here?"
Sun Yuqi smiled and said, "No, I just brought what I needed. I can't really move my whole home here."
But Zheng Rongrong guessed right. Sun Yuqi really emptied the house and only left a few simple pieces of furniture on the street.
Seeing that it was still early, the two decided to go to the state-owned restaurant and have lunch before going back.
There was no ox cart coming to the commune today, so they would need to find an ox cart to take them back to the construction team later.
After eating the braised pork that she had been thinking about all morning, Sun Yuqi went to find an ox cart to take the two of them back to the construction team.
It was already four o'clock in the afternoon when we returned to the construction team. At this time, several fire dragons were lit in an open space outside the Youth League compound.
Sun Yuqi was very curious and asked Qiao Jianguo who was standing beside her.
"Qiao Zhiqing, what are they doing?"
Qiao Zhiqing said with a smile.
"Don't you know, Sun Zhiqing? It's so cold here in the Northeast. It's hard to dig the foundation for a house now! We can only light a fire where we're digging the foundation and let the soil thaw before we can dig."
After listening to Qiao Jianguo's explanation, Sun Yuqi remembered that it was still very cold here. If they wanted to build a house, they had to wait until the ice was completely thawed. However, by then the busy spring season would probably have begun, and no one would be able to help them build the house. It just so happened that they had some free time during this period, so the team leader and his men would rather burn a fire to thaw the ice and start building the house.
After knowing the whole story, Sun Yuqi no longer stood there in the cold. After returning to the house, Lu Yao had already packed up all the pots and pans that Sun Yuqi had brought back.
"Yuqi, this is good. For now, we have a pot to cook in. We don't have to borrow the pots of the old educated youths anymore."
Looking at Lu Yao's carefree appearance, Sun Yuqi didn't know what to say. This girl seemed very heartless, and her only advantage was that she would listen to advice.
Zheng Rongrong said on the side.
"I thought about it and decided we still need to find someone to share our burden. I tried today and there's a well in our yard, but I couldn't draw water. In the end, it was Zhiqing Qiao who helped me. Otherwise, I'm afraid we wouldn't have any water to drink tonight."
After hearing this, Sun Yuqi walked out of the house and came to the well to take a look. She tried again and found that it was indeed difficult to hit the well. However, this still needs to be done frequently, practice makes perfect!
Sun Yuqi said after returning to the house.
"I'll try it tomorrow. It should work. We can practice pumping water up when we have nothing to do."
In the evening, several people drank some corn porridge and each had a boiled sweet potato as dinner.
Sleeping on the warm kang, Sun Yuqi breathed a sigh of relief, closed her eyes and slowly fell asleep.
When I woke up the next day, it was still dark outside. There was nothing I could do as there was no entertainment at night, so I went to bed early.
They waited until dawn and then the three of them got up.
At this time, the people who were building the house outside had already arrived and were busy.
They worked for quite a while last night, and Sun Yuqi was wondering if they were digging the foundation. But when she woke up this morning, she saw that it was true. The foundation had already been dug, and they were going to build it today.
After breakfast, Sun Yuqi and the other two went up the mountain again to collect firewood. The weather was still cold, so they needed to collect more firewood to avoid the cold.
When we arrived at the foot of the mountain, we saw some people already collecting firewood. It seemed that some families did not prepare enough firewood last autumn, so they had to come out to collect firewood now.
Sun Yuqi looked around and saw that there was no more firewood nearby, so she decided to walk up the mountain. After a winter, there should be a lot of firewood there!
After discussing, the three of them headed up the mountain. After walking for about half an hour, they had reached the halfway point of the mountain. Looking at the snow on the ground, they thought that no one had come here this winter. The snow was very clean, with only footprints left by some small animals.
