Chapter 63 Paying the public grain



I am friends with Liu Hua, but this is her life after all, and no one can tell her what to do.

Finally, Xu Manman couldn't help but remind her, "It's okay to fall in love, but you still have to take care of yourself, especially when it comes to physical contact. You have to keep your distance."

In this era, if a man and a woman are walking on the street and holding each other, they may be reported as hooliganism and criticized. And once they get carried away, it is always the girl who suffers.

Liu Hua, who had calmed down a little, said to Xu Manman seriously, "Okay, I know. I know what's going on."

"Okay then, I'll go back and cook."

Back in the house, Xu Manman sat in front of the stove, staring at the flames burning in the stove, in a daze.

Some people have no choice but to be exchanged for other people by their families, while others are pursuing their own happiness freely and passionately. Fate is so unreasonable.

After thinking about it for a while, I was awakened by the burnt smell in the pot. Looking at the burnt porridge in the pot, I gave up.

Scrape off the burnt bottom of the pot, wash the pot clean, add water again, and there is no need to add firewood. The remaining firewood in the stove is enough to boil the water.

Pour the mushy porridge into the kitchen trash can, take a bowl and scoop a bowl of rice, and put tomato beef and stir-fried sweet potato leaves on the bottom.

As expected, only delicious food can stop people from having wild thoughts. After eating, Xu Manman immediately recovered.

Continue to complete the whole set of fooling around and return to the space.

After harvesting the newly ripened rice today, I went back to my room to sleep.

During the next two days in the space, Xu Manman was very enthusiastic about cooking.

Braised pork with preserved mustard greens, pork belly, braised beef, cumin lamb, stuffed eggplant, stuffed bitter melon, sweet and sour spare ribs, big pot chicken, hand-shredded cabbage, a bowl of farmhouse fragrance...

I also made two pots of tomato sauce and fried a large pot of peanuts.

Looking at the storage room and the shelves filled with food, Xu Manman squinted her eyes happily.

Cheer up and continue studying. Once you have filled your stomach, it is time to consider spiritual pursuits.

When knitting the sweater, the progress is still slow. I finally finished one sleeve, but encountered difficulties when closing the hem. It took me a long time to figure it out.

Looking at the sleeve that was finally finished in my hand, it’s no wonder that I used to see the mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law in the village making it all year round. This thing is really addictive.

After a few more days of working life, after the corn was peeled, the village organized the strong laborers to go to the public to collect grain. The male educated youth also selected Li Mao, Xue Mingxin, Yue Feng, Zhang Yuan, and Zhan Tianqi, and the grain they paid was calculated according to the public cents.

Xu Manman thought that the remaining three were not selected probably because their muscles were not developed enough.

Lin Zuxin is less than 175cm tall, and Wang Wei is probably only 170cm tall. Both of them are thin. Li Xiao is about 182cm tall. He must have gained some muscles from working during this period. However, his overall appearance and the glasses on his face make it easy for people to think that he is not cut out for work.

In fact, Li Xiao was a little wronged. He worked really well. According to Liu Hua, he could get at least 8 centimeters every day. The reason he couldn't get the full amount was because he had to help Liu Hua with the work. Although he looked thin, he was actually a little stronger than his cousin Chen Ming. Xu Manman guessed that he was the type who looked thin when dressed and had muscles when undressed.

In addition to his good figure, Li Xiao is also very handsome. However, his appearance is hidden by his glasses and he is accompanied by a cheerful and handsome boy, Zhan Tianqi, so he usually does not attract attention.

Hiss! Liu Hua is blessed.

Back to the topic, today we went to deliver grain. There was only one ox cart in the village, and the rest were either carried on flatbed carts or shoulder poles. Early in the morning, the village's grain delivery team loaded the grain from the warehouse next to the threshing ground and set off in a mighty procession.

The village chief, accountant and team leaders were all there, so they didn't have to work today, which was equivalent to a day off. Xu Manman and Liu Hua also followed the grain delivery team early in the morning, and signed for 5,000 kilograms of grain in the barn. Li Xiao naturally followed Liu Hua as well.
