I don’t know whether these things happened in my previous life. I have been living my own life well and have no time to pay attention to other people’s affairs, so I don’t know whether these things happened in my previous life.
She really didn't expect that they almost got her killed before she even took any action, and then they picked out the relationships between them one by one.
She thought that she would have to wait a bit, as they were still in the ambiguous stage now. She would have to wait until they confirmed their relationship before she could sort out the various people involved.
Now she spends the whole day in the cornfield with Aunt Guihua and her husband, busy picking corn. After picking the corn in the field, she starts to go to the brigade to peel the corn husk.
After peeling the corn and drying it in the sun, they began to harvest the rice in the fields. The three of them peeled corn in the drying yard of the brigade for two days.
Later, no one in the team dared to rest and they began to work overtime to harvest corn. Now that the water in the rice fields has dried up, they are not afraid of leeches crawling on their legs when going to the fields.
Since Qianjin Brigade is closer to the north, most of the land is dry land, which is suitable for growing crops such as wheat and corn, so there are not many paddy fields in the village.
It took the whole team two days to harvest all the rice in the rice fields. After the harvested rice was separated from the straw and dried, it could be bagged and stored.
Later, a group of people from the brigade were assigned to dry the grain in the drying yard of the brigade headquarters, while the others went to the fields to cut corn stalks, bundle them up, and pile them up somewhere so that they could be used to feed the cows in the winter.
Tong Yiya's assigned job was to turn over and dry corn in the brigade headquarters, and also to shell corn. Every day when she went to the brigade headquarters, she would first uncover the corn cobs that had been covered and piled together the day before, and spread them out on the drying yard with a rake to dry.
After drying the grain, she would take a small stool and find a place under the shade of a tree to sit down. She would start by putting the corn cobs into sacks, beating them with a stick, then pouring them out and picking out the corn cobs. Some of the corn kernels that were not beaten off had to be peeled off by hand.
While she was working, she could also listen to the aunties chatting about the gossip in the village. Aunt Guihua was also assigned to the team office to turn over and dry the corn. After spreading out the corn in her area to dry, she would come over with a small stool and sit next to her, peeling corn and chatting with others.
Tong Yiya was listening on the side and would say a word or two from time to time. Everyone knew that Tong Zhiqing was not a talkative person, so no one took it seriously.
With Aunt Guihua's presence, it was easy for her to integrate into the village gossip group. It didn't take long for her to get into the group. Although she liked to listen, she didn't talk much.
Most of the time I was listening to them chatting, and from time to time I could hear some gossip about the educated youth, but it was similar to what Aunt Guihua and another aunt said a few days ago, that is, the educated youth took things from the villagers, but were unwilling to date, and in the end they had to use money to settle the matter.
The other topics they talked about were mostly about which daughter/son in the nearby village was dating, which daughter married whom, how much money the family paid as a dowry, and how much was the betrothal gift.
At this time, everyone was talking about who had unmarried children. Suddenly, an aunt asked Aunt Guihua: "Hey Guihua, I remember your youngest son seems to be almost 20 years old this year. He has been in the army for more than three years and has never come back. Has this child written to you? Does he have a girlfriend in the army?"
"That's right, Sister Guihua, if your son is dating someone, you should bring him back to you as soon as possible to show him to you first. Otherwise, he will get married in the army and you won't even know what kind of person his daughter-in-law is," said another aunt.
"My son didn't mention this in his letter, so he probably hasn't discussed it yet," Aunt Guihua said with a smile.
"Then you have to help screen. If you can't find one in our villages, you can find one. There are many suitable girls in our village." The aunt said hurriedly before she heard it.
In fact, she wanted to marry her niece to Aunt Guihua's youngest son. After all, their three sons were all promising. The two married sons had jobs and took their families to the city to eat public food.
Every month, some money would be sent back to the old couple for their food and drink. The youngest son was not far off either. He joined the army when he turned sixteen and has been away for more than three years, and has never returned.
However, they have heard that Aunt Guihua's youngest son has worked very hard in the army in recent years and is now a company commander.
After being away for three years, he would send most of his allowance back home to his parents for safekeeping every month. Now that he had married a wife, all the money would go to her. Therefore, families in the village with suitable daughters all wanted to become relatives with Aunt Guihua.
"We came here to look after the child on his own initiative. If he hadn't asked me to help look after the child, I wouldn't have done such a thing," said Aunt Guihua.
"Oh, whose child's marriage is not decided by their parents? If you don't find him someone near us, what will he do if he marries someone from the city and never comes back?" The aunt, who also wanted to marry her daughter to Aunt Guihua's family, saw that Aunt Guihua was unwilling to help her son find a wife, so she quickly took over and said.
"That's right, Guihua. Look at the son of Yang Laoyao from the next village. He joined the army and found a city wife. After he retired from the army, he never came back," said another aunt.
"I'm not worried about that. If he can find someone new by himself, we'll be happy for him. If he doesn't come back and wants to stay in the city, his father and I have no objection. We have three sons, and we can always rely on one when we get old." Aunt Guihua said these words with a smile. It's not that she didn't understand the plans of these aunts, but she just didn't want to do anything that would make her youngest son embarrassed.
Seeing that they could not persuade her, the aunts stopped talking about this topic. It was time to get up and turn over the grain that was drying in the sun, so the aunts stopped talking about this topic and got up to turn over the grain.
At noon, Aunt Guihua went back to cook. Tong Yiya stopped peeling corn because she wanted to see the grains drying in two places. She stood up and walked back and forth between the areas assigned to them, turning over the grains with the rake in her hand from time to time.
Five days later, all the grain was dried, bagged and stored in the warehouse, waiting for the team leader to take the strong laborers in the village to the public office to collect the public grain the next day, and then start distributing the grain to the villagers.
On that day, except for the strong laborers who were going to deliver food, the rest of the villagers and educated youth had a day off.
Tong Yiya went to tell Aunt Guihua early that day that they would have dinner at her house, and asked Aunt Guihua and Uncle Wu to go over there.
In the morning, she followed the villagers to the brigade warehouse to watch the grain being weighed. After the grain delivery team left, she went home to take off the sheets and quilt covers in her room and prepare to wash them in the river.
She also put some tablecloths and dirty clothes into the backpack, took the basin and a small bag of soapberry powder, and went to the river.
Her place was a little far away from the small river behind the village, and she had a lot of clothes to wash, so she brought a backpack to carry the clothes.
