Song Songbai still felt that Zhou Yian was a little strange before work in the afternoon, and he was a little absent-minded at work in the afternoon, as if he was stimulated by something.
After getting Ge Qiuze's excuse, I finished early and went to find An An first, then took a shower and went to the village chief's house.
At this time, Zhou Yian was still chatting with the old lady.
In order to have a thorough chat, I even pretended to go to my room to get paper and pen to write down the key points.
These two ladies were so talkative. When she asked a question about composting, they started talking about their own sufferings from the moment they were born, and then talked about fighting the Japanese invaders, and then extended it to the founding of the new country...
As a result, Zhou Yian did not write a single word about composting, but he did remember a lot of miscellaneous things.
But what these two ladies said was quite interesting, and they even had supporting actors, so it was like watching a play.
Zhou Yian was so engrossed in the conversation that he was still chatting in the pigpen even though they had agreed to go home at the appointed time. He didn't even mind the stench of the pigpen.
So Song Songbai happily returned home only to find himself in another cold and deserted room.
There was also a bunch of bamboo shoots sent by Li Hao.
The thought just now dissipated, Song Songbai went to wash up first, and then started peeling bamboo shoots honestly again.
I don’t know why I suddenly like eating bamboo shoots so much.
Although it was quiet, I didn't feel lonely at all when I thought about this person.
Hearing the footsteps of someone returning, Song Songbai didn't know why, but he was very sure that it was his An An. He smiled and walked over to open the door, "You're back."
"Yeah, I'm back," Zhou Yian smiled at him, "This afternoon was really interesting."
Song Songbai clearly felt himself relax, "What's wrong?"
"Those two ladies collecting pig grass are so funny. Talking to them is like telling a crosstalk." Zhou Yian also came in to wash his hands and face. "It's so funny. I've been chatting with them for a long time. You're off work so early today."
"Well, I came back to find you and told you not to cook. Village Chief Ge asked us to come over for dinner."
"What's the big deal? We can put it in a space even if it's burned," Zhou Yian wondered. Was this guy trying to be lazy?
Never mind, I'll just be lazy. Farming is hard work too. "So are we going now?"
Song Songbai also found himself strange, always wanting to see her suddenly, "Village Chief Ge and the others may not have finished work yet, let's go later."
"Okay," Zhou Yian said without thinking too much, "Then let's cook the bamboo shoots. You slice them and I'll light the fire."
I'm free anyway.
"good."
After lighting the fire, Zhou Yian went to the door to collect the bamboo shoots. The sun was almost setting, so they couldn't leave them outside at night, otherwise the dew would get in and they wouldn't be able to dry well.
After putting it away, Zhou Yian sat back down by the fire. It was quite warm there.
They both sat quietly.
"It's almost time, should we leave?" Zhou Yian, who was staring at the fire in a daze, was suddenly awakened by the sound from next door.
"Yeah." Song Songbai also withdrew his gaze from her, "Let's go."
The same people still lived in the village chief's house, but this time, Zhou Yian not only became familiar with Ge Qing, but also had a little secret with Goudan.
Goudan was so scared that he didn't even dare to look at her. Zhou Yian was really impressed by her attempt to cover up her crime.
As expected, everyone was attracted by him and was lost in thought.
Song Songbai knew the situation and quickly helped to divert attention, "Uncle Ge, what's going on today?"
"It's like this, Song Zhiqing," Village Chief Ge took a drag from his pipe and slowly exhaled, "Didn't you say yesterday that you were a student at Tsinghua University and could repair tractors?"
"Yeah." Song Songbai responded indifferently. That was the fact.
"You have helped our village a lot. As the village chief, it is only right that I reward you." Village chief Ge's face was full of satisfaction. Regardless of the other educated youth, at least the ones facing him were good.
"Since I have gone to the countryside and my household registration is in Gejiazhuang, if the village needs anything, I will definitely do my best to help." Song Songbai also realized that something was wrong. After all, if someone wanted to help repair the tractor, he had already asked for help yesterday.
"There's such a thing," Village Chief Ge sat up straight. "I know there's a scrapped walking tractor at the county supply station. Although it's not as good as the commune's current one in every way, it's a machine after all, so it's definitely better than human labor."
Song Songbai nodded to indicate that he was listening.
"I was wondering if you could repair the broken tractor. If you could, our village would be able to open up an extra piece of land, and our grain production would be able to increase a bit, so the villagers could have more food to eat."
"It depends on how damaged it is," Song Songbai didn't dare to boast, but he was still somewhat confident. After all, there weren't many professional repairmen in the small county, and some cars that were still usable could be called scrapped. "You have to see the actual car to know for sure."
Village Chief Ge also nodded. If Song Songbai had said it was definitely possible from the beginning, he would not have dared to believe it directly. He wanted to say this, "Then let's go to the county together tomorrow to see if it is possible."
"This matter has not been finalized yet. Don't tell anyone outside." Village chief Ge looked around with a warning look. This was a major grain issue. It was not that he looked down on others. Ge Huiji still lacked a sense of the overall situation. He was afraid that Ge Huiji would do something tampering and then he would not be able to buy the scrapped tractor.
The younger generations all agreed.
