Chapter 227 Going to Sister's House
After Ziyi recovered his memories of his past life, he decided to return to the paradise in the mountains and install solar panels to generate electricity. He wanted to equip both the paradise and the paradise with electric lights and solar water heaters.
Although he was not an expert in this field in his previous life, he had spent a long time in his own technology company. At that time, in order to study chips, he accompanied those researchers day and night. It can be said that he was also half a scientific researcher. Now it is easy to study a solar water heater.
One suggestion is to bring those scientific and technological personnel who are about to be sent to the farms into the mountains, and let them conduct research at their own expense to avoid wasting ten years of time. Finally, the two decided to go back to the mountains first to get the water, electricity, and housing ready so that they wouldn't be in a rush when they went in.
Today Ziyi and Tang Jianguo went to buy the materials needed to install electric lights and solar water heaters. Yike prepared dry food at home to eat on the way back to the mountain.
It was not until the evening that Ziyi and Tang Jianguo drove back.
"Why is it so smelly? Is it hard to buy?" Yi Ke asked as he served them some boiled water.
"Alas, we went shopping all over the county, but the required materials were still not complete. We had to drive to the city again. But we finally bought everything, otherwise we would have to return to the provincial capital." Ziyi was really thirsty and drank the boiled water in one breath without stopping.
"Sister-in-law, do you know what brother Ziyi said about using the sun to boil water? Is it true?" Tang Jianguo asked after finishing drinking.
"I know. Isn't it just asking the sun to be obedient and help me boil some water?" Yi Ke said in a deliberately childish tone.
"Just listen to me obediently. Do you think you are a god? It will do whatever you tell it to do." Tang Jianguo muttered.
"I believe that Brother Ziyi can make the sun obedient and boil water if he tells it to." Yike looked as if he was sure that Ziyi could do anything.
"Haha, if you trust him so much, aren't you afraid that one day he will sell you out and let him count the money?" Tang Jianguo muttered.
"What did you say?" Yike pretended not to hear.
"Yike, ignore him. Go prepare the dishes and we'll eat after we wash up." Ziyi said.
"Oh!" Yike went to the kitchen.
"So obedient. Haha!" Tang Jianguo laughed.
"That's enough. I just didn't let you drive when I came back. It's no big deal. Besides, after I leave, you can drive every day. Let's go and wash up." Ziyi patted Tang Jianguo on the shoulder.
After dinner, Tang Jianguo drove Ziyi and Yike to Ma Youcai's house. They would stay overnight at Ma Youcai's house and set out from the mountain behind his house to return to the paradise tomorrow.
"Sister, brother-in-law, why are you here so late? Did something happen?" Han Guihua asked in surprise when she saw Ziyi and others brought in by Ma Youcai.
"Sister, it's okay. I just have to go back tomorrow and wanted to see you. We two sisters should strengthen our relationship tonight." Yi Ke said with a smile.
"Okay, then have you eaten? If not, I'll go cook." Han Guihua removed the ashes from the wick, and the light suddenly became much brighter.
Ma Youcai Village is located in the mountains and has not yet been connected to electricity, mainly because the village has no money. Therefore, many rural areas now have no electricity. Only the villages close to the county town have electricity for every household.
Those who don’t have electricity still use kerosene lamps. The light is dim, only slightly brighter than the full moon on the 15th day of the lunar month.
It took Yike a while to get used to it when he came here. At that time, Yang Huaihua saved kerosene and had dinner before dark. After dark, everyone went to bed.
For Yike, who was a night owl in his previous life, he had just come here and counted the little sheep for dozens of nights. But habits are good things. Later, Yike got used to going to bed when it got dark and falling asleep as soon as he lay down.
"Sister, we have eaten. Brother Tang drove us here, but he couldn't drive in, so he went back." Yike said.
"Alas, the road in this village needs to be repaired. It has rained heavily and the road is full of potholes, making it difficult even for ox carts to pass." Ma Youcai frowned.
“You have thousands of people now. Donate two or three hundred yuan to buy sand and stones for the village. Let the team leader lead the members to pave the dirt road with sand and stones. In the future, the road will not be damaged on rainy days, and it will be convenient for everyone to go in and out. Besides, building roads is a great good deed, and it is good for you too. You don’t have parents or brothers, and even your uncles are not close to you, so you should unite the people in the village. In this way, when you work in the city, there will be people to help your wife if she is bullied by others in the village.” Ziyi analyzed carefully to Ma Youcai.
"Okay, I'll talk to the captain tomorrow." Ma Youcai nodded.
"Sister, let's go to the room and talk, so as not to disturb the men talking." Yi Ke suggested.
The two sisters carried oil lamps into the wing room. "Sister, I'm going to get the sheets from their room. It just so happens that I just cleaned that bed two days ago. I was thinking that one day when you come, you'll have a room to stay in. Youcai said that you'll go through our place when you return to the mountains, so I've been preparing. Hehe, now's just the right time."
Han Guihua went to help the two men make the bed with sheets and pillows and then came back. Yike sat leaning against the head of the bed. The dim light illuminated the room, making the things in the room look hazy and mysterious.
“Ma Youcai, you must remember what I am going to say next and don’t tell it to anyone,” Ziyi said seriously.
"Brother, you tell me, I promise I will keep it to myself." Ma Youcai couldn't help but sit up straight.
"Yike and I went to the provincial capital this time..." Ziyi briefly talked about how Yike was being hunted, and then how he and Yike fought back and captured the new spy leader and his subordinates.
"Brother, they are so abominable." Ma Youcai was terrified and cursed angrily in a low voice.
"Well! But the police rewarded us both with a jeep. It was given to Brother Tang to use. He often goes out to contact his brothers, and it is convenient to have a car. When you go to the city, you must learn to drive from him. I told him that all of you brothers must learn how to drive, so that when you have a car in the future, you can buy it and drive it." Ziyi told another good news.
"Wow! That's great." Ma Youcai couldn't wait to go into the city.
"I heard some news in the provincial capital. The current situation may be tense. You should be careful about your words and actions and not be as casual as before. And you can't earn work points from the cow anymore, right?"
"Ma Youcai, the world will be in chaos for a while. During this period of chaos, you must pay special attention to your words and deeds, and remember not to force yourself to do anything. There are too many poor people nowadays, and we can't help so many even if we want to. Even if we can help, we can only help secretly. Remember not to help others but end up bringing trouble upon yourself. You are not alone now." Ziyi stared at Ma Youcai carefully.
