"Captain, the so-called Lao Wujiu are our country's treasures. We all know that we will have to endure some hardships in the next few years, but believe me, the storm will pass.
Captain, you must do your best to make this happen, no matter what means you use, so that the cowshed looks shabby from the outside, but actually contains a lot of secrets inside.
Now the villagers are idle at home with no income. In order to protect public property, I funded the villagers to repair the cattle shed, and also let them earn some money for the New Year. "
Anyway, the Lai family has not spent the 2,000 yuan in compensation yet, so just consider it as rural development.
Li Jianguo was delighted. The villagers could make money without spending any money. This was possible.
"Captain, since we're building a cowshed, it's so cold and we can't have no place to put the cows. Several of us educated youth are afraid of the cold and need to stockpile firewood, but we have nowhere to put it.
"I'd like to ask the villagers to help build a firewood shed and a temporary cattle shed so we can temporarily house the cattle at the educated youth site. The cattle herders could also live there with us. Does the team leader think this is feasible?" Wenwen asked.
Wen Xiao secretly gave Wen Wen a thumbs up, saying, "Great! Grandpa Yu can live in the educated youth site for a while."
Yu Xunting also looked at Wenwen. He didn't expect that she was so quick-witted. In the end, she decided to take her grandfather to live in the educated youth camp for a while. It was a solution that made everyone happy.
Although Li Jianguo did not agree immediately, he was probably very happy in his heart as he had met a good person who gave him money.
After leaving their gifts behind, they returned to the educated youth site in a brisk and quiet manner.
Xiao Huimin had been waiting for them.
When they came back, he said, "The hot water in the pot is ready, and your kettles are full."
"Thank you!" Wenwen was exhausted after a day of travel and wanted to wash up and rest quickly, but the quilt on the kang had not been made yet.
Wenwen lit a candle and went into the house. The kang was already warm and she could sleep as long as she spread out the quilt.
Wenwen wiped the kang with a towel and then put a layer of cloth on it. The cloth was a defective product that her mother's factory didn't want anymore. It didn't require a ticket and was cheap.
Wenwen made the bed, washed up and rested.
In the morning, after getting up, several people took a look around the educated youth site, determined the location for setting up the tent, and then started to work.
Wenwen was in charge of breakfast. She looked around the kitchen and the house and found that the house was bare, without even a broken table or chair, let alone cabinets or furniture.
Wenwen gathered all the food together. She looked to see how much food was left. She had to live frugally.
Five catties of dried noodles, ten catties of white flour, ten catties of cornmeal, twenty catties of rice, and twenty catties of millet. These were the only grains we had.
Ten pounds of bacon, three cans of pickles, three cans of chili sauce, and a little over one pound each of salt, oil, soy sauce and vinegar.
Five pounds of fruit candy, five pounds of White Rabbit milk candy, three pounds of brown sugar, three pounds of white sugar, and one pound of rock sugar.
Three packs of egg cakes, three packs of snacks, two bottles of wine, and six packs of cigarettes.
Two packs of ten candles, pots and pans, kitchen knives and scissors, etc...
There is basically no need to buy anything else, except for food.
The men have an astonishing appetite, and this amount of food is probably not enough to last a week.
Food is hard to buy now, and everyone is hungry and short of food. It would be great if we could find food to replace food.
After everything at home is almost arranged, I will go to the mountains to take a look.
There are so many plants and birds in the mountains, we can't just leave such a huge treasure unused.
Wenwen scooped half a bowl of millet, washed it, and put it into the boiling pot.
Use a spatula to pour it over to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
Then cover the pot, reduce the firewood and simmer over low heat. Pour the bottom of the pot every once in a while, otherwise it will stick to the pot.
The porridge is almost done, put the last few steamed buns and eggs on top and steam them.
She peeked into the boy's room and saw Lanlan had woken up and was sitting on the kang in a daze.
"Lanlan, get dressed and come out for breakfast."
Wenwen sighed inwardly when she saw she didn't respond. She went in, dressed her, and braided her hair into two small pigtails.
Holding her hand, he sat in front of the stove and let her warm herself by the fire.
Then wash her face and hands.
After the men finished their work, they came into the house and Wenwen called them to have breakfast.
While having breakfast, I talked to them about counting the supplies and the amount of remaining supplies.
The most lacking thing is food.
Xiao Huimin said embarrassedly: "I went to ask the team leader today if I could borrow some food and use it to offset the loss next year. I didn't bring any food with me, so I can't eat all yours."
"Okay, then you ask." Wenwen knew the principle of being grateful for a little while and resentful for a big meal.
Yu Xunting looked at Wenwen and said, "I'll go to town one day and see how much food I can buy."
"This is the only way for now. If it doesn't work, ask my parents to send some money over." I can't go hungry.
"In fact, it would be best if we could find plants to replace food." Wenwen pointed to the other side of the mountain.
Surrounding her were endless mountains, their peaks and ridges rising one after another, seemingly without end. Before arriving in Lijiawan, her understanding of the idiom "layer upon layer, continuous and endless" was merely literal, but now, seeing these mountains firsthand, she truly grasped their meaning.
These mountains are next to each other, with peaks towering into the clouds and shrouded in mist, giving people a mysterious and spectacular feeling.
"Aren't you going to chop firewood this afternoon? I want to go and take a look too." But now the plants in the mountains have lost their leaves, and it is impossible to tell the species.
"You can play with Lanlan at home. It's dangerous in the mountains." Yu Xunting was afraid that she would encounter danger.
"How can there be any danger with you here?" With the King of Soldiers in hand, I have everything.
Yu Xunting felt a little hot at the tips of his ears when he heard this.
Wenwen didn't know that she had accidentally flirted with a straight guy.
"Actually, it's not good for Lanlan to stay at home all the time. It's good for her to go out for a walk." As long as she is not irritated, it's fine. It's best to let her have more contact with small animals, which is more effective than playing with other children.
