This snow fell for 5 days in total. Except for a few hours of rest in the evening, it snowed all the time.
The snow came very heavily. Cheng Fangyuan got up early every morning to clean the snow off the roof to prevent the accumulated snow from collapsing the roof.
This kind of thing is repeated every year when it snows, and gradually it has become a habit for the people in the Red Star Brigade.
The Sun Jianhua brothers knew a little about this. Every day as soon as they got up, they would brave the wind and snow to sweep the snow off the roof.
Even the snow on the woodshed was not spared.
But because they were so diligent, a dispute broke out in the Youth League Institute.
It turned out that they had agreed that several male educated youth would sweep the snow on the roof, and the female educated youth would sweep the snow in the yard. However, such a simple matter still caused a conflict.
When they took turns cleaning the roof before their conversation, one male educated youth was lazy and did not sweep the snow from the woodshed. He also did not tell the next new educated youth that he needed to clean the snow from the woodshed, which caused the roof of the house to collapse.
A lot of firewood in the woodshed had become wet, which resulted in the firewood they used to burn on the kang these days being wet. The smoke was choking, and many people complained about this, which led to a dispute.
However, because of the snow, the matter was not reported to the team leader. They came up with a solution internally and finally solved it themselves.
As for repairing the roof when the time comes, we can only ask them to pay some money and ask the villagers to help repair the roof.
Song Tanglan and Su Tao only found out about these things when the grain was distributed.
They heard the bell early that day, so they packed up early in the morning, took the tools they needed, and waited at the door to meet up and go to the square.
Song Tangcheng thought that he hadn't been out for a while, so he decided to join in the fun today and happily prepared.
Seeing her second sister so happy, Song Tanglan couldn't bear to disappoint her, but when she thought that there would be a lot of people in the square today, she couldn't help but worry.
Thinking that she would be bored at home alone, he agreed, but he followed her all the way, fearing that someone would bump into her.
Today, Cheng Fangyuan was busy distributing food and couldn't stay by Song Tangcheng's side to protect him.
He originally wanted to ask Aunt Li to queue up for their family's share of food.
I thought that when he was done, I could just use a cart to transport it home.
But his wife said that she hadn't been out for a long time and wanted to go out for a walk. He saw the expectant look in his wife's eyes, and he had no choice but to nod and agree.
I felt a little annoyed after I agreed, but it was too late.
Along the way, Song Tanglan saw many familiar and unfamiliar people walking towards the square. Everyone's face was filled with joyful smiles, and even children of a few years old were playing happily in the fields.
You don't have to observe carefully to feel the joy brought by the distribution of food.
This time, Su Tao did not follow the other two educated youths. Instead, she walked beside Song Tangcheng with Song Tanglan, protecting her on both sides for fear that she would be bumped by the ignorant child.
When they arrived at the square, Song Tanglan was once again infected by the joyful atmosphere and couldn't help laughing.
Most of the villagers in the square were dressed simply, with patches on their clothes. Only a few families who were well-off had fewer patches on their clothes.
Song Tanglan knew that there would be a lot of people today, but she didn't expect that almost everyone in the team would come. She didn't know many of them, had never interacted with them, and had never met them.
Seeing the two little girls, Song Tangcheng was both curious and a little restrained. He had no choice but to pull them into line behind the team, and by the way, he whispered to them about the people in the team.
"See in the front? The person holding this notebook is the team's accountant. He's in charge of all the food distribution and procurement for the team. The one helping out next to him is the team leader of the second team, and the other one is his son."
The time when Song Tangcheng and his colleagues went to the countryside happened to be the busiest time for the team's accountant, so it was normal that they had never met each other.
"The grandfather over there is the former village chief, and the one next to him is the captain of the first team." Whenever Song Tangcheng saw someone they were curious about, he would whisper in the ears of the two little girls to explain.
Song Tanglan and Su Tao listened to her brief introduction with great interest. The simple words made them more familiar with the Red Star Brigade, such as Uncle Zhang who was in charge of the cowshed, Aunt Qian who was in charge of raising pigs, Doctor Liu from the health center, and so on.
The conditions in their brigade are pretty good in all aspects, and no one has been sent down here. Those who have been sent down here have been sent to hard-working farms and areas with harsh environments, so only Uncle Zhang is in charge of the team's treasured child.
Aunt Qian, who is in charge of pig farming, is an expert in pig farming. Every year, the team has two quota pigs. According to the team's share, they can raise four pigs every year. In addition to those that have to meet the quota, the other two are kept for pork distribution during the Chinese New Year.
Every year, the pigs raised by their brigade can reach more than 200 kilograms, which is outstanding among other brigades.
Doctor Liu from the health center was originally from the Red Star Brigade. He is the only one left in his family now. He had previously spent all his money on studying medicine, and in the end it was the people in the brigade who pooled money for him to continue his studies.
He was learning medicine from his master at the time, but he had to pay fees and give gifts every year during festivals, which was a considerable expense.
Later, in order to repay the Red Star Brigade, he returned to his hometown and became a village doctor.
This time, the queue took quite a while, and the three of them had nothing to do but listen to Song Tangcheng talk about the things happening in the queue. Seeing that they were interested, Song Tangcheng talked about it in great detail, even telling them how many people were in the family.
