Mother Bai Rong went to work in the fields early in the morning.
Bai Rong didn't let her daughter work in the fields, saying that two people didn't eat much and the work points she earned were enough!
Unable to persuade her, Zhang Xinxin cooked lunch for her at home and boiled some mung bean water every day and sent it to the fields.
The talkative Comrade Tian Kai is also very hardworking. He goes out early in the morning.
As for what he was going to do, it was definitely to track and monitor carpenter Liu Guanghui.
The current situation is clear. Liu Guanghui is not normal and must be kept a close eye on.
Zhang Sinian thought about it and decided to go find the village chief Zhang Wende.
Tell him about what's happening on his side so he can be mentally prepared.
I don’t know what’s going on with the things we discussed yesterday.
After handing the buns he bought to Zhang Xinxin at home, Zhang Sinian went out and walked towards Zhang Wende's house.
At the village chief's house, Zhang Wende didn't go out at all today.
After notifying all the villagers at the threshing ground in the morning, he waited anxiously for Zhang Sinian at home.
Right now, nothing is as important as what is happening right now.
After waiting for a long time, Zhang Sinian finally came.
Zhang Wende immediately pulled him into the earthen kiln in the backyard.
The two began a secret conversation...
Xia Xiaojing slept until her butt was exposed to the sun. She waited until Ruan Mengmeng and the others went out before she slowly got up and went outside to wash up.
She no longer has to get up so early to weed the cornfield.
From today on, she started to collect grass for the pigs.
After washing up, she found something in the cupboard to fill her stomach.
It seems that I need to make things clear with Wu Fanghai and the others in the next few days.
She doesn't have to get up so early anymore and doesn't have to eat breakfast in the back room.
As for rations, we can give less at that time!
For the time being, others don’t know that she no longer needs to go out.
The other educated youth thought she was injured and couldn't go out to the fields recently!
Ruan Mengmeng lived in the same room with him and didn't like to gossip, so no one knew what was going on with her.
Last night, Ruan Mengmeng came back, had dinner, and then lay down and fell asleep.
Xia Xiaojing didn't have time to tell her.
So at present, only the village chief and Su Juhua knew that Xia Xiaojing went to collect grass for pigs.
After filling her stomach, Xia Xiaojing changed into long-sleeved shirt and long pants, put on a hat, carried a bamboo basket on her back, locked the wooden door of the room, and walked to the place where she could pick up the farm tools.
She had a backpack, but she didn't have a sickle. She had to get a sickle first before she could go to pick grass for the pigs.
If you want to collect grass for pigs, you have to go to the mountains or the edges of the fields, because only there are various kinds of wild grasses.
Xia Xiaojing didn't want to go to the edge of the field, where there were patches of corn and the leaves of the corn seedlings were too scratchy.
She is now afraid to see the cornfield, and her heart is filled with shadows.
She decided to go to the mountains.
Su Juhua had specifically reminded her yesterday.
You can only pick grass for pigs in the surrounding areas and must not go into the deep mountains.
There are wild boars and mountain tigers inside, which is very dangerous.
Xia Xiaojing is spoiled at home, but she is not stupid. How could she not know how powerful wild beasts are?
She kept Su Juhua's words firmly in her heart.
Never go into the mountains.
Hearing Su Juhua say this, she knew that there should be other people in the village picking grass for pigs, and she might meet them soon.
If you meet someone later, you can go with them.
Watch how others collect grass for pigs and learn from them. You should be able to do it almost right.
It took Xia Xiaojing seven or eight minutes to reach the place where she could pick up the farm tools.
After telling the registrar why I was there, he pointed to the notebook on the table and indicated a blank space with his eyes.
"Sign your name here. The sickle must be returned before 6pm!"
Xia Xiaojing didn't hesitate and quickly wrote her name.
After checking that the name was correct, the registrar turned around, handed her the sickle, and gave her one last reminder.
"This is public property. Be careful when using it and don't damage it. If you do, you'll need to pay for it!"
Xia Xiaojing nodded quickly and responded.
"Okay, got it, I'll pay attention!"
In this era, agricultural tools are quite precious.
Buying a new one requires various procedures for approval.
When I come back to use it, I cherish it very much.
After some repairs, it can basically be used for many years.
There is nothing wrong with the registrar's reminder, as it is mainly to remind everyone to protect their farm tools.
After all, this girl is obviously a newly arrived educated youth, and she probably has no idea about the job of collecting grass for pigs.
If you don't earn any work points and break the farm tools, it will be a waste of time and effort.
Xia Xiaojing also understood his concerns and quickly assured that she would never damage the farm tools.
Then he took the sickle, left here and walked towards the back mountain.
When she reached the foot of the mountain, she saw from afar a group of people picking grass for pigs.
When I got closer, I found that they were a group of children, all very young.
The youngest is over two years old and the oldest is only seven or eight years old.
"Are you picking grass for pigs?"
Xia Xiaojing asked when she saw them bending down to cut the unknown weeds on the ground.
The children who heard the sound stopped what they were doing and turned their heads to look.
I found out that it was a beautiful older sister I didn’t know, carrying a big bamboo basket on her back.
So they all stared at her with puzzled eyes, but did not speak.
"I'm a new educated youth, and I'm here to pick grass for the pigs. Can you teach me?"
Xia Xiaojing knew in her heart that she was a stranger to these children.
They must have been a little scared, so they didn't dare to talk to her.
She had to explain her identity clearly so that the children would let down their guard and teach her how to pick grass for the pigs.
"So you're the new educated youth! I was wondering why I had never seen you in the village!"
The oldest boy came to his senses and suddenly realized.
He looked like a little adult, glanced up and down at Xia Xiaojing, and thought, no wonder!
I heard that a lot of new educated youth have come to the village recently.
However, they have never seen each other before, so it is normal that they don’t know each other.
"Cutting grass for pigs is easy. Just watch us cut the grass and follow our example!"
"Really? Thank you!"
Xia Xiaojing's eyes lit up and a slight smile appeared on her lips.
The dozen or so children on the opposite side were stunned for a moment.
The people in this city are just different. They have fair skin, good looks, and their smiles are so sweet.
In a short while, Xia Xiaojing became friends with a group of children.
She was not in a hurry to cut grass for pigs to earn work points. After she learned how to do it, she slowed down and took her time.
It’s so comfortable when I don’t have to go out to the fields to pull weeds!
After mowing the grass for a while, I found a place under the shade of a tree, sat under it, felt the breeze, and looked at the surrounding scenery. It was a pleasant feeling.
