After Su Xia came back, the happiest person was Chen Xiao and his mother, because they didn't have to go back to work and could come back to feed the pigs, 8 of them, and there were also chickens and geese at home.
The autumn harvest lasted for more than 20 days, and Su Xia never went back. During the week, Chen Jianguo brought Niuniu and Dabao back to help with the work.
Then when I go to work, I take the two older ones with me, and they also have to go to school.
In fact, Su Xia was also puzzled by this. According to the novels she had read, schools would have holidays every time there was autumn harvest.
But in the time and space where I live, the village did release the lights, but only for a week, and the county town didn't at all.
Later, Su Xia also changed her mind. The autumn harvest lasted more than 20 days each time. If there was a holiday, she would not have to go to school.
Didn’t I see Dabao crying loudly when he returned home, and he kept shouting, “I don’t want to go to school, it’s boring.”
Holding on to the door with both hands, he just didn't want to leave. At this time, Su Xia understood the reason why the school didn't have a holiday. Looking at the noisy Dabao, she wished that the school didn't have a holiday all week.
In the end, it was Niu Niu who kicked him twice. Under Su Xia's fierce gaze, Dabao got into the car with a wronged look on his face, tears still flowing.
Not to mention Su Xia, even his biological father Chen Jianguo frowned for the first time, and even said to Su Xia privately, "Why don't you send Dabao to the army?"
Su Xia was stunned for a moment, then she understood what it meant. This was her biological father looking at her crying Dabao, who was a boy, and she was thinking about exercising.
However, Su Xia did not refuse to join the army, but he had to go to school first.
"Why rush? Let's talk about it after he graduates from high school. We'll see what he wants."
After hearing this, Chen Jianguo realized that he was a little anxious. Dabao was only seven years old, not young.
After the lively autumn harvest, Chen's mother did not lose weight, but was full of energy and vigor.
Unlike other villagers of the same age, each of them lost at most 5 kilograms.
"Hey - Brother Chen, are you two lucky?"
"Yeah, after such a tiring autumn harvest, you didn't lose weight?"
"I'm old now, and I rely on my children. But it would be best if I had capable children!" A skinny old man, lying beside the ground, suddenly said.
The other elders of the same age also lowered their heads dejectedly after hearing this, thinking it would be better to rest.
After hearing this, Chen Xiao didn't say a word. He was indeed enjoying a good life, which he had never dared to think about before.
However, he also agreed with the last sentence. The children were amazing. They not only lived a good life themselves, but also took care of them when they were old.
Su Xia was not idle either. During this period, she picked all the vegetables from the front and back yards of her house.
Dabao pickled 20 kilograms of salted garlic, enough for him to eat until the autumn harvest next year. This was too much to say, and the whole family still ate it together.
As for the other side dishes, Su Xia pickled them all since there were many jars at home. Fortunately, when Chen Jianguo came back, he brought several bags of salt.
Those who wanted to keep the seeds kept the seeds. In the end, there were 8 cantaloupes left and 3 watermelons left. There were still 5 cantaloupes and 2 watermelons in the space.
Corn, potatoes, sweet potatoes, radishes and cabbages were all dug up from the foot of the mountain.
The harvest was 300 kilograms of potatoes, 200 kilograms of sweet potatoes, 150 kilograms of cabbage, and 100 kilograms of radishes.
Su Xia dried all kinds of vegetables and now stored them in the cellar.
Chen Xiao and Chen's mother had two hens, one for the second and third children, and the other for Su Xia and the others to eat.
So the only livestock left in the family were the four fat pigs on Su Xia's side and Chen 꿵's mother's side.
The second family has two hens and two fat pigs. The eldest family has the same thing, but they are not as fat as Su Xia's.
However, when it was sold, the weight was over 250 kilograms, which also made Chen Jiandang and Chen Jianjun satisfied.
In the meantime, Suxia also welcomed two waves of educated youth. The first wave was led by a educated youth named Yixia who came to Qingyuan.
When I came to see her, I was very polite.
First, "Comrade Su, Comrade Su...", then "Sister Su..."
Su Xia didn't show any impatience. When she heard about the ticket exchange, she said politely, "We don't have many tickets. We can't exchange any of them."
Xia Zhiqing hurriedly said, "Comrade Su, we don't need that much. Just two kilograms of meat coupons will be enough to satisfy our craving."
Su Xia nodded. There were still some meat coupons. Besides, these kids were only seventeen years old, and they would still be high school students in the future.
But when Su Xia saw the second wave of educated youth, she was surprised.
It was the first time I got a good look at the captain's son-in-law.
Gu Zhiqing came with Teacher Zhao, and followed behind him the whole time. His movements were very supportive, and he looked like a husband from the 14th school.
Zhao Yulin's face was full of happiness. She now felt that compared with Su Xia, she would go to Beijing with her husband in the future, while Su Xia was still in the village. No matter how big it was, it was still a county town. Naturally, she felt a sense of pride.
Su Xia also felt it, so her brows were furrowed even tighter.
Gu Zhiqing lowered his head, and when he occasionally looked up, he smiled awkwardly at Su Xia.
Su Xia's mouth trembled. What did he mean? Could it be that he was apologizing to his wife?
It was also the first time that Gu Zhili saw Su Xia up close. Before, he had only caught a glimpse of her from a distance.
The shock in his heart was not visible on the surface. He never expected that in a village like Zhaojia, there would be such a beautiful woman with an outstanding appearance and a temperament that was no less beautiful than those in the city.
The only pity is that she is too old, 10 years older than him, otherwise...
Gu Zhiqing himself came from an official family in Beijing, but unfortunately, because he was reported by others, his mother, grandparents, uncle and aunt's family were implicated.
My grandfather felt that the wind was blowing in the wrong direction, so he sent my uncle and his family abroad and severed all ties with them.
My uncle's family were soldiers, and they used their connections to send them to the island, so no one noticed.
There is also a younger aunt who followed her grandparents to the farm. Although it is poor, it is safer than the village.
He was closely related to his grandfather, who was also in politics and was the most affected. He was assigned to a small place with his mother, and his younger brother and sister, both 12 years old, who were twins.
Because he was old, he was originally working, but his grandfather, considering the misfortune at home, asked him to sell his job and go to the countryside to avoid the disaster, and come back when the situation improved.
The other cousins, Donton, all live with their own mothers.
His parents found themselves in a small county town under the jurisdiction of Beijing City. They thought that everyone would be safe after this.
However, my uncle's family's overseas connections will still be affected even if they are severed.
Gu Zhili thought that in half a month, his mother would be sent to the village. When he first heard about it, he wanted to have his mother sent here so that it would be more convenient to take care of her. He was also glad that the household was separated at that time, and on the surface, his mother's brothers and sisters had no relationship with him.
I originally wanted to hide until I returned to Beijing, but I didn't expect this movement to be so serious.
Grandpa's letter also said that I should stay quietly in the village and integrate into it.
My mother was sent down to Zhaojia Village, and she had already used up the last layer of connections in the family. After that, she just had to live out her own life.
So when the captain's daughter was interested in him, Gu Zhili did not refuse and went along with it. After all, he was old enough to do that.
As for the future, hmm - let's just live in the present first.
Su Xia sent the two coins away, and finally exchanged them for 1 jin of meat coupons and 1 jin of sugar coupons.
No one else said anything, just looked at the backs of the two people, especially Gu Zhiqing.
Su Xia saw the occasional flash of brilliance in his eyes and had no hope at all for the union of the educated youth and the villagers.
"As expected, TV dramas are based on reality!" Su Xia sighed and continued with her life.
