Chapter 83 So Cute
When Qiao Mo saw the Japanese in his previous life, there were ox carts and horse carts, and in better conditions there were even tractors. But the Dongshan Brigade had nothing. Of course, there were still cows, but they were the brigade's treasures. How could the brigade leaders be willing to let them pull carts?
"So what if we have an ox cart? We still have to walk most of the way?" He Dongqing shook his head and said, Xishan Brigade is a mountainous area, and going out is either uphill or downhill. It is the same in Dong Town. If you take an ox cart, you have to get off and walk when you reach an uphill slope. If there are many things on the cart, everyone has to help push the cart.
"Something is better than nothing." Qiao Mo nodded inwardly as he thought of the road to the town. "Sister He, you have so many people living in one room. Are they easy to deal with?"
"When we live together, there are more or less some conflicts." He Dongqing said with a wry smile. Especially when they first arrived, those people always bullied them, the newcomers. Fortunately, they were not pushovers, and it was only after they stood up to them a few times that things got better.
"With more people, there will naturally be more conflicts. Sister He, I don't have anything else. I just brought you some rice, some dried sweet potatoes and a cured rabbit as a snack." Qiao Mo handed the things in his hand to He Dongqing.
"No need, Qiao Mo. To be honest, we can barely fill our stomachs here. You are younger than us by several decades. Don't work too hard, especially for work like building a reservoir. It's not a job for girls. Don't do it if you can avoid it." He Dongqing refused to accept Qiao Mo's things.
"Sister He, this is a little gift from me. The rice is ground from my paddy field, the rabbits are sent by my cousin from the East China Sea, and the dried sweet potatoes are dried by myself. I hope to share them with you." Qiao Mo stuffed the bag into her hand.
"Your eldest cousin sent it from Donghai, so we can't accept it. Besides, it's not convenient for us to make it here, and we will all eat it together. So you should take it back. We will come to Dongshan Brigade to see you when we have time, and you can make delicious food for us then." He Dongqing insisted on not accepting her things.
"That's fine too. When you have time, you must come to Dongshan Brigade to play. I will definitely treat you well." Qiao Mo thought that they ate together and it was inconvenient to cook, but she still insisted on leaving the dried sweet potatoes. They didn't need to be cooked and could be taken out and eaten when they were hungry.
She stayed with He Dongqing for more than two hours. They both talked about their recent situations. Only when the other two people in the room came in did Qiao Mo say goodbye and leave.
When she passed by Wu Yuanxin and his family's thatched cottage, she released her spiritual sense to take a look. Seeing that Wu Yuanxin looked much better than when they first met, and there was a hint of anger in Bai Ge's eyes, she left with peace of mind.
The mountain road was difficult to walk on, but Qiao Mo had undergone several body tempering exercises and her body was already very strong. In addition, she had been following Kang Mingyuan and others in the mountains and forests these days, so walking on this unobstructed mountain road was like walking on flat ground, and her speed was also very fast. Halfway through, she saw a colorful pheasant flying through the woods. She picked up a small stone and threw it over the stone, and a big rooster fell down. She picked it up, wrapped it in leaves, put it in her bag, and carried it back home.
After returning to the educated youth camp, Qiao Mo took out the pheasant and went to the kitchen to boil water to pluck the feathers.
"Momo, where did this pheasant come from?" Kang Mingyuan and Han Yimo came out after hearing the noise and asked after seeing the pheasant in the basin.
"I saw it when I passed by Woniu Mountain, so I shot it down. It's just the right amount for a snack." Qiao Mo answered while adding firewood to the stove.
"Mo Mo is so lucky. You must be very tired after walking such a long way. Take a rest first. We will take care of the chicken." Kang Mingyuan walked over and started a fire.
Qiao Mo also felt a little tired at this time, so she didn't bother to be polite with them. She stood up and went back to the house. After entering the house, she locked the door and slipped into the space.
As usual, Qiao Mo went behind the bungalow and saw the empty paddy field. She took a few pounds of rice from the bungalow and spread it evenly: planting in space is much simpler than outside. Not only does it take less time, but there is no need to raise seedlings. You can just spread the seeds directly and it will grow. There is no need to catch insects or apply fertilizers, which saves her a lot of trouble.
