When she returned to the space in the evening, Xu Manman first harvested the two plots of land that had matured today, and then planted crops on the two empty plots of land.
During the two days in the space, Xu Manman tried to make a lot of dry food that could be stored for a long time, such as steamed buns, wowotou, pancakes, scallion pancakes, and egg pancakes, and even took them out of the space to cool down.
That night, the people at the educated youth site could smell the fragrance of food in their sleep. Of course, Xu Manman didn't know any of this.
From now on, whether I eat it myself or give it to my cousin, it will be more convenient. Of course, I dare not use all white flour. Except for scallion pancakes and egg pancakes, the others are mixed with coarse grains.
Xu Manman also unlocked the sauce-flavored pancake. Although it was not a 100% replica, it tasted super good. She made a lot of them at one time and kept them for breakfast.
I also planted a small patch of sunflowers in the vegetable garden, so I will have enough sunflower seeds soon.
Of course, the learning tasks have not been neglected. Now the mathematics and Chinese of the first year of high school have been completed. I have to say that one-on-one video tutoring is really suitable for people like Xu Manman who work hard.

Today's balance: 0.97 yuan, remaining check-in points: 34 points

After paying the grain, there is not much work to do in the fields. The village notified that people will be organized to repair the reservoir in two days. I don’t know about other places, but here when repairing the reservoir, they first record the centimeters and then pay in cash after the work is done. It is said that you can earn at least 80 cents a day. There is still a month or so before winter officially begins. If you work hard, it is not a problem to earn 30 yuan a month.
Although it is very tiring and hard, this is one of the few ways in the village to make money in an honest way. Even those who work hard in the village can earn less than 200 work points a year. Now that the busy farming season is over, there is not much work to do in geography. They are all odd jobs, and each one is only a few centimeters. You can earn 30 yuan a month by repairing the reservoir, so everyone is scrambling to do this job.
Moreover, building a reservoir is a public task, usually done by engineers. Only during the slack season will the surplus labor force from each village be organized. There are not many quotas allocated to each village, so girls can forget about it. Even male educated youth may not get a spot. Basically, only the young and middle-aged men in the village will go.
This makes us have to say that the village chief of Hongsheng Village is indeed a conscientious man. When it comes to building a reservoir, the young and middle-aged people in the village are needed, but the village chief will give priority to those whose families are really in difficulty. Although people are poor evenly distributed nowadays, there are always two or three families that are particularly poor. Of course, those who are poor themselves, do not work hard, and are idle and steal on weekdays, such as Liu Laizi, who is said to be from a family of exchanged marriages, were not allowed to go.
But these things had nothing to do with the educated youth. After the canal builders left, the people who stayed in the village were also busy. They were now preparing to plant winter wheat and rapeseed. Xu Manman was busy preparing the land every day and raising seedlings at the same time.
During a holiday, Xu Manman went to the next village to visit Chen Ming, and brought a few bottles of homemade sauce and nearly 20 kilograms of dry food. Now that the weather has turned cooler, some elderly people in the village have already put on padded jackets, so these things can be kept for a longer time.
When Xu Manman went there, they were still at work. After all, the arrangements in each village were different, so there was no need to find someone to lead the way this time. Xu Manman went straight to the gate of the courtyard of the educated youth site and sat down. She left late today and calculated the time to go out. She estimated that they would finish work soon.
Sure enough, not long after, several young men and women were seen walking towards this direction.
Xu Manman stood up and moved closer.
"You are...Chen Zhiqing's cousin, right?" A girl walked over and asked while pushing the door. The last time she came, this girl was also in the yard and she still remembered her.
Xu Manman replied with a smile, introducing herself to the people around her, "Yes. Hello everyone, I'm Xu Manman, an educated youth from Hongsheng Village."
"Hello, I'm Wang Jianping." This was the girl who had just pushed the door open. "Chen Zhiqing should be back soon. Go inside and wait."
Xu Manman was about to follow him in when she looked up and saw her cousin coming from a distance. "No need, I saw him. Thank you."
Wang Jianping turned around and saw Chen Ming. She nodded to Xu Manman and walked into the yard.
"Manman, why are you here?" When Chen Ming saw Xu Manman, he quickly ran over, still panting as he spoke.
