Chapter 106 Buying a Tractor
When Li Ruolan and the others heard Xia Zhen say this, they immediately became alert: "You haven't told anyone about going back to the city to find a job, right?"
Xia Zhen shook her head: "No, I didn't tell anyone except you."
Qin Wan looked at a troubled child and warned him earnestly, "This is not a funny thing. Don't mention it again in the future.
Don’t tell anyone, otherwise if someone lets it slip and it gets out, even if your family finds you a job and wants to take you back, you will definitely be hated.
Who knows what will happen next time someone will do something irreversible, so we should just pretend we didn’t hear what you said, and don’t say it again.”
Among them, Li Ruolan and Deng Minghao came to the countryside on purpose, while Qin Wan sent her biological father and stepmother to the police station, and then went to the countryside to avoid her relatives there.
Guo Xiaoya went to the countryside for Xu Tao.
As for Zhou Shengnan and Zheng Fanghua, they already know the true identities of Shen Yi and his men. When Shen Yi and his men return to the army, they will definitely follow them.
Therefore, the temptation of returning to the city is not so attractive to the two of them.
No one in this room was so obsessed with returning to the city, but it was different for the others. If they told others about it and they heard it, the consequences would be disastrous.
Zhou Shengnan and Zheng Fanghua also told Xia Zhen a few words, and Xia Zhen nodded vigorously: "I understand, I won't tell anyone about this matter in the future."
After a few days, the autumn harvest began. Li Ruolan and the others did not go to help this time. After all, the children were still young and needed to be left alone with adults.
However, after the corn was harvested, they helped to shell the corn, taking their children with them. They spread a piece of thick cotton cloth and put the children on it.
Aunt Guihua smiled so hard that her teeth were showing and her eyes were not: "You kids are really cute, white and plump.
Qingqing and Ningning were a little thin before, but they have caught up recently, and are now white and plump like the lucky dolls in the paintings."
Aunt Wang Er and the others also nodded and looked at the children with bright eyes.
They all gathered together. Li Ruolan turned her head and looked around, and found that Li Yingying seemed to be gone.
However, Zhang Baoer, who had not been seen for many days, did come, and she seemed afraid that others would not see her, so she had a bulging belly and one hand on her waist.
It seems that she is pregnant, but I don’t know whether it was before or after marriage.
Seeing Li Ruolan looking towards Zhang Baoer, Aunt Guihua curled her lips and said, "You don't know, ever since Zhang Zhiqing and Wang Changsong got married, the Wang family hasn't had a single day of peace.
Mrs. Wang is a pretty kind person, but now she is forced to curse every day, which shows how much she hates Zhang Zhiqing."
How could I not be angry? My son lost his job as a scorer and had to go to work every day.
I had never done any heavy work since I graduated from high school. Now that I’m working, I’m exhausted all day long and can’t even earn five work points.
He was already thin, and now he was so tired that he fell ill every other day. How could Wang Changsong's mother be willing to be nice to Zhang Baoer?
Qin Wan also looked over there, but said nothing. She asked Aunt Cuihua, "Why didn't Li Zhiqing come over?"
When talking about this, Aunt Cuihua also shook her head: "I heard that she is pregnant again, but this time the baby is not good. Since she got pregnant, Li Zhiqing can't eat and vomits every day."
Li Ruolan frowned. It had only been less than half a year since Li Yingying gave birth to her first child. Being pregnant again must be very harmful to her health.
After I saw her last time, she stared at Qingqing and Anan for a long time. I guess she wanted to give birth to a boy as soon as possible.
After all, she has received higher education. I didn't expect that Li Yingying has been assimilated so much. Is the meaning of a woman's existence to give birth to a boy?
They were chatting in low voices, and there was a group of people sitting next to them, talking while shelling corn.
Li Ruolan suddenly heard someone say, "Our village is planning to buy a tractor."
The Victory Brigade belonged to the Qianjin Commune, which had a total of ten brigades.
The money for this tractor was jointly paid by ten brigades, and after the purchase, it was put in the Qianjin Commune. Then any brigade that needed it could use it.
With a tractor, when things are busy, we don't need horse-drawn carts or ox-drawn carts anymore. We can use the tractor to help pull the things. At that time, ten teams will take a turn, and when one team is done with its work, it will help the next team.
"Is this true? Hongqi Commune has already bought tractors. I heard that villagers can get married on tractors.
Now our commune will also have a tractor, and when the children get married, they can also ride on a tractor." Someone said.
"Just thinking about this, with a tractor our work will be much easier. At least when we harvest corn we don't have to pull it back again and again."
"That's true."
When Li Ruolan heard this, she had some ideas in her mind. Deng Minghao not only knows how to drive a tractor, but also how to repair it.
Both she and Deng Minghao were born in rural areas. Deng Minghao's family had a lot of land, about six acres. The year Deng Minghao was born, there happened to be some land for him to divide.
Li Ruolan was younger. When she was born, the 30-year land-immobilization policy had already been implemented, so she had no land.
In her family, only Li Ruolan's father, grandparents, and two uncles own land.
Later, after my father and two uncles got married, they divided the land, with each family getting three and a half acres of land.
Li Ruolan's mother's land is on the side of Ruolan's grandmother.
So Deng Minghao and Li Ruolan both grew up in rural areas when they were young. In addition, Deng Minghao was a sensible person since he was young, and he followed his parents to help work in the fields when he was very young.
Moreover, the older generation not only knew how to drive a tractor, but sometimes they could also repair it themselves. Over time, as Deng Minghao watched them for so long, he learned everything.
When Li Ruolan was young, her uncle taught her how to drive a tractor, but she was timid and didn't learn it after several attempts.
But later I learned to drive a diesel motorcycle tricycle, and then there were electric vehicles, tractors and diesel vehicles, which were gradually eliminated.
It is only used when harvesting wheat and corn.
The newly purchased tractor will definitely need a tractor operator. Deng Minghao can try to see if he can get this job.
When it comes to the autumn harvest, he doesn't have to work hard in the fields. He just needs to help drive the tractor, which is a very easy job.
The work of autumn harvest is really not a job for humans. For the past half month, Deng Minghao has been working as soon as he opened his eyes, and falling asleep as soon as he came back. He is extremely tired.
Li Ruolan planned to tell Deng Minghao about this matter after she returned to see what he thought.
