After the denunciation meeting, even though the scoundrels cried bitterly, Chen Baiwang remained ruthless and sent them to the police station.
The situation has been explained to the police station, but it will take some time to decide the specific verdict.
Except for the family of the second-rate guy, all other members applauded the result.
Before the autumn harvest, everyone went to the town again and bought some fine grains and some eggs from the members' homes.
The autumn harvest work is extremely arduous. If the food cannot keep up, everyone will be exhausted.
"Comrades, during the autumn harvest, our platoon's duty roster will be temporarily suspended. Bai Yi and I will be responsible for everyone's logistical support."
Lin Wanru helps out in the infirmary and doesn't have to work during the autumn harvest.
"Then thank you, Comrade Lin Wanru."
No one was pretentious, especially the newly arrived educated youth. They had never experienced autumn harvest and were still a little unsure about the intensity of the work.
After a few more days, it was finally time to harvest the crops in the fields.
The production team organized all the members and educated youth to hold a swearing-in ceremony, shouting the slogan of working hard for 30 days to ensure that every grain of food is stored in the warehouse. The autumn harvest of 1970 officially began.
As soon as the sky was getting light, everyone gathered at the brigade headquarters to assign the day's work.
Workers are not allowed to leave at noon. Every household has meals delivered to the fields, and they continue working after lunch.
The day's work ends only when the sun sets and the sky is filled with stars.
In order to ensure that the grain is stored in the warehouse as quickly as possible, the sun does not shine at both ends of the day when they go to work.
At night, the militiamen were armed with live ammunition and patrolled continuously to prevent gangs from the mountains from coming down to steal food.
After a few days, the old educated youth were still better, but the new educated youth felt like they were falling apart and even had no appetite.
Yang Baiyi had to add some biological agents to the water to relieve everyone's fatigue.
"Comrade Lin Wanru, did you add some magic medicine to the food? I've felt much better these past two days. No matter how tired I am, I can recover after a short rest."
Even the most insensitive people can notice the changes in their bodies.
"There's no magic bullet. It's probably because everyone is used to the intensity of the autumn harvest."
Lin Wanru knew nothing about the biological agents that Yang Baiyi secretly added.
A month later, all the crops in the fields were finally harvested, and the autumn harvest work came to a perfect end.
The next part was some easy work, and everyone could finally take a breath.
Every day I go to the field to dig corn, dry sorghum, and store sweet potatoes in the cellar. Compared to the month of autumn harvest, these tasks are like playing.
The commune and the police station also conveyed their opinions on how to deal with the few second-rate people.
A few scoundrels idled around all day long, causing trouble. Although they did not cause irreparable consequences, the impact was extremely bad.
After research and discussion, it was decided to send the five scoundrels to a farm for one year of labor reform as a warning to others.
After this incident, some young members who were ready to make a move no longer dared to have any other ideas about the female educated youth.
When the female educated youth went to work, there was no more booing or whistling.
Yang Baiyi's courtyard was completely cleaned up and the furniture was moved in. Yang Baiyi picked a day at random and moved his luggage in with Lin Wanru.
Zhang Chunling looked at the receding figures of Yang Baiyi and Lin Wanru with a complicated expression.
"Don't look at it, haven't you thought it through yet?"
He Yingying waved her hand in front of Zhang Chunling.
"What does it matter whether I think about it or not? In the eyes of Comrade Yang Baiyi, I am just an irrelevant person."
Zhang Chunling laughed at herself, her face full of bitterness.
"Alright! If someone doesn't belong to you, you can't get him no matter how hard you try. So, you might as well turn your sorrow into appetite and give him a good meal tonight."
He Yingying didn't know whether she was comforting Zhang Chunling or herself.
"You're right. Have a good meal tonight. Comrade Yang Baiyi is an absolute dog tycoon."
In the evening, the educated youth came to the small blue brick courtyard with two thermoses, two washbasins and two mirrors that they had prepared long ago to congratulate Yang Baiyi on his new home.
Also coming to congratulate were the brothers Chen Baiwang and Chen Baishun, as well as the highly respected old branch secretary.
Yang Baiyi has the special ability, so the dinner in the evening will naturally not be bad.
There are all kinds of small game, including hogs, badgers, hares, pheasants, etc.
There were still a few wild boars and roe deer in the space, but Yang Baiyi did not take them out in order to avoid gossip.
"It's great to be able to hunt. This banquet is so grand, and the dishes are so tough."
Chen Baishun swallowed his saliva. There was really a lack of meat in this era.
During the meal, everyone congratulated Yang Baiyi and sent him their blessings, and Yang Baiyi expressed his gratitude to them one by one.
After everyone had eaten and drunk their fill, Yang Baiyi escorted them out the door.
When I came back, I saw Lin Wanru and Yang Xiaoxiao cleaning up the leftovers.
Yang Baiyi leaned against the door frame, looking at the busy adults and children, his eyes were a little dazed.
"What are you looking at? Go to the kitchen and boil some water. I'll give Xiao Xiao a wash later."
After spending such a long time together, Lin Wanru has become accustomed to Yang Baiyi's gaze.
"Okay, I'll go right away."
In the evening, Yang Baiyi lay on the kang, with various snacks at hand, reading a comic book leisurely.
"It's still more comfortable to live alone! No need to hide anymore."
Yang Baiyi sighed with satisfaction.
The next morning, when Yang Baiyi got up, Lin Wanru was already busy in the kitchen.
"Why are you up so early? Did you sleep well last night?"
Yang Baiyi asked while washing up.
"She slept well. The little girl was so excited that she slept soundly at night."
Lin Wanru said.
"Then let her sleep a little longer. I'll help you make breakfast."
After Yang Baiyi finished washing up, he went to the small stove in the kitchen and skillfully made a few fried eggs and baked a few pancakes.
"When I went to the countryside, I told my parents I was there to exercise. But how could this be considered exercise? It was simply a place of enjoyment."
Lin Wanru said with a smile.
“That is necessary. We won’t suffer any unnecessary hardship at all.
Okay, go wake Xiaoxiao up, I'll bring the food to the main room, and we'll eat right away."
Soon, Yang Xiaoxiao was lifted up from the kang by Lin Wanru, who dressed the little girl up beautifully.
"Wow! Fried eggs, fried dough sticks, rice porridge, brother, today's breakfast is too rich!"
Seeing the breakfast on the table, the little girl immediately became energetic and no longer felt sleepy.
"As long as Xiaoxiao behaves, we can eat like this every day from now on, okay?"
Yang Baiyi said in a gentle voice.
"Okay, Xiaoxiao is the most obedient."
Yang Xiaoxiao made repeated assurances.
"How can we eat like this every day? Even if we both get full work points, it still wouldn't be enough!
We still need to eat a combination of coarse grains and fine grains, otherwise we won’t survive until the next food distribution.”
Lin Wanru looked at the foodie brother and sister and said speechlessly.
