Wen Sihe is in a special period now. Lu Zhiye remembered what Old Man Liu said and gently pulled her clothes off.
"Be good, eat something."
The two of them had a delicious meal in the space, and the lame chicken stayed in its chicken coop (juan) and didn't dare to come out.
He just stared with his small eyes, looking at the woman in front of him curiously.
When she saw Lu Zhiye being so intimate with her, her eyes suddenly started to roll.
He lifted his chicken wings and stroked his big red comb, then pretended to walk towards the two people casually.
When Wen Sihe saw the lame chicken, her eyes lit up and she said to Lu Zhiye excitedly, "Wow, I've never seen a chicken with such shiny fur.
Look at the meat on the leg, it’s really firm and must be very chewy.”
Lame Chicken's heart was filled with alarm and he looked at Wen Sihe in disbelief.
The foot that was originally about to take a step forward was silently retracted.
Wen Sihe looked at the pheasant that was almost becoming a spirit and couldn't help but smile. She thought that this must be the pheasant that was said to be so magical on the dam before.
Lu Zhiye couldn't help shaking his head as he looked at Wen Sihe's sly smile. He picked some sour plums and put them in her hands: "Let's go. Captain Lu and the others should have finished their meal."
Wen Sihe put the sour plums into her pocket and raised her hand slightly: "Little wild boy, help me out."
The two of them played around for a while, and when they arrived at the brigade headquarters, Captain Lu and a few others were talking in the yard.
As soon as I entered the door, I heard Captain Liu complaining: "Old Lu, if everyone follows us to dig up the pear trees, they will all be paid.
No matter how poor it is, work points must be calculated. Even if I am the leader of the village, I cannot let people provide labor for free."
Captain Lu didn't listen to his nonsense. He took out a Daqianmen cigarette from his pocket and handed it to each person with a painful look.
He had treasured this cigarette for a long time, and today he had used up most of it.
"Old Liu, you don't have to be so harsh on me. Now that everyone has paid their taxes, they have nothing to do. The young laborers in the family are all resting at home.
There is no such job, and there is nothing else to do. Besides, after we give you the money to buy the opera house.
According to regulations, you need to hand over a portion of it to the commune, which can be considered as completing your mission.
The remaining money will be distributed to every household.
You can't give this money away for nothing, right? Besides, the people in your village should work hard to finish the work of the Pear Garden as soon as possible.
We can pay you earlier, right?"
Captain Lu's words made Liu Haijun fall into deep thought, and Secretary He beside him also said: "Captain Liu almost doesn't need to ask the brigade about this matter.
Everyone will rush to help. After all, each family will get a hundred dollars."
Secretary He said this with great confidence, but everyone present knew that this was the truth.
Liu Haijun quietly glanced at the branch secretary beside him.
The branch secretary was smoking the Daqianmen cigarette handed to him by Captain Lu, enjoying the sweet taste. He would comment on it from time to time, saying that it was indeed better than our old dry tobacco.
Seeing that he couldn't give a definite answer, Captain Liu gritted his teeth and stomped his feet and agreed.
Captain Lu patted Liu Haijun's shoulder happily and said, "Then let's go and count all the seedlings first.
There is another thing. Since we said at the beginning that we wanted to buy the entire Liyuan.
We will also take away the surrounding bricks."
After he said this, not only Captain Liu, but even the branch secretary who was smoking nearby became unhappy.
"Captain Lu, we are already losing a lot of money if we sell these fruit trees to you at this price.
I will sell you more bricks. Even now, how much will it cost for you to buy these bricks? "
Captain Lu did not think that his request was excessive, as he had originally wanted to buy the entire theater.
When the Pear Garden was first built, weren't bricks considered part of the Pear Garden?
However, he also knew in his heart that no one would be willing to suddenly cut a piece of meat from Captain Liu.
So after some bargaining between the two parties, Captain Liu reluctantly agreed to let Captain Lu take away half of the bricks.
Captain Lu looked unhappy on the surface, but he was actually smiling brightly in his heart.
While Wu Yu and the others were in the orchard, he hurriedly urged Liu Haijun to go find someone.
By two o'clock in the afternoon, two or three hundred people gathered at the brigade headquarters.
Almost every family had someone who contributed. Liu Haijun was a man of good words, and he told everyone to dig up the pear trees as soon as possible so that they could get the money and share it with everyone.
Now the whole village couldn't sit still anymore and all came over to help.
Hoes and shovels are ready.
Fortunately, it is only the beginning of November now. Although the weather has turned cold recently, the ground has not frozen.
It is a good time to dig holes and plant trees during this period, especially pear trees, which can also improve their frost resistance in the coming year.
Captain Lu asked everyone to form teams of three and dig from left to right.
Pear trees were dug out one by one. Lu Zhiye was very strong, and he and several men from the village were responsible for carrying the pear trees and putting them on the tractor.
For this purpose, Captain Lu specially borrowed a few tractors from the commune’s agricultural machinery station.
In this way, it took a whole week to dig up and transport all the fruit trees.
The people in Dahe Village were also not idle. Men, women, young and old in the village all started digging holes.
The news of Wen Sihe's pregnancy also spread, and everyone was digging holes and gossiping.
The lady in the green headscarf put her foot on the iron slats and pushed down hard.
A shovel of soil was dug out: "Lu Zhiye has finally made it.
Look at him now. Not only has he married an educated youth from the city, but he is also going to have a child."
“Who said it wasn’t true? Alas, it’s a pity that the people of the old Lu family left too early.
If I have a child in the future, won’t I be able to do anything for the first few months?
I will take care of the children later, and some of them will be very tired. "
The person who said this was none other than the aunt who made noodles for Wen Sihe when they got married.
Although every household has many children these days, at least there is an elderly person at home to help take care of them.
When the eldest child in the family is a little older, he or she can take care of his or her younger siblings.
There is no need for family members to worry too much, so the eldest child in the family usually suffers the most and is the most tired.
Especially in this era, those from poor families would have children in their teens carrying their babbling younger brothers and sisters to collect grass for pigs.
Just for those two or three work points.
As soon as she said this, everyone sighed.
Yes, the hard times are still ahead. If the educated youth Xiao Wen cannot go to work, Lu Zhiye will have to earn food alone.
It will be difficult for the two of them.
Wen Sihe, who had no idea about this matter, was sleeping comfortably at home.
Originally, she wanted to stroll around where everyone was working, but Lu Zhiye was afraid that there would be too many people and he might bump into her again, so he refused to let her go out.
