Seventy cannon fodder is a ruthless man

Chapter 497 The Best
Captain Bao said to Meng Tao: "It's hard to come back, let Shen Yu and the others go back to work first, and you mothers can stay for a few more days?"

"I can't live this time, I'm afraid my mother-in-law is not used to our place, next time."

"Okay, don't wait too long, bring the child back when you have time."

"Okay Uncle."

"Girl, the situation in our village is getting better now, and it will be even better in the future. This is all thanks to you. The improved seeds you brought back have made great contributions. On behalf of the whole village, I thank you!

Last year's harvest was the best ever in our village, and it got the attention of the commune and the county, and people from the Agricultural Science Institute were sent down... I didn't say you brought the seeds. It happened that Mr. Liu came to the village twice. Discuss it as if it was brought by him, anyone who wants to ask can ask him, hahaha!Save yourself trouble. "

Meng Tao smiled and said: "It doesn't matter if you say me, anyway, I really went out to sea with Shen Yu once."

"Wow, keep your voice down, don't disturb Shen Yu!" Captain Bao shook his hands again and again, with a serious face, he always felt that "overseas relations" could not be just mentioned casually.

Then when talking about last year's harvest, Captain Bao smiled brightly again: "...You have a share of the dividend, Jinniu Dongmei and his wife collected it for you, and let them give it to you later."

Meng Tao declined: "No need, my household registration is no longer in the village."

"I said you still have your account, you deserve it, you have to give it!"

Meng Tao: "..." Well, you can give it if you like.

Suddenly thought of something, and frowned: "Uncle, will those people from the Tian family come back to the village?"

"I can't come back. Last year, Wang Shuifeng moved their mother's household registration to Chengguan in the county seat. I heard that she remarried there. She sold the burned-out Tian family house for 200 yuan to the nearby Luo family. In the future, the three sons of the Luo family will marry their own wives and separate their families, and they can live in one of them after being rebuilt."

"That's good."

In two or three years, Linshui Village will definitely become a new village that gets rich first. If the Tian family ran back to enjoy the benefits, it would be terrible to think about it.

Just as he was talking, Meng Changshou came over, sat down next to Captain Bao, looked at Meng Tao, but didn't speak, just smoked dry cigarettes, Captain Bao asked: "What do you want to say to Taohua, old man? "

Meng Changshou waved his hand: "You guys are talking, I'll sit by and listen."

"It's nothing, old man, tell me." Captain Bao guessed that Meng Changshou might have something to do with Meng Tao, so he got up and left without inquiring about other people's hobbies.

Meng Changshou waited for Team Leader Bao to leave, put the ashtray on the foot of the stool, and said to Meng Tao: "Peach Blossom, Grandpa has something to tell you: your cousin Jin Lin has a high school education, and he went to the Kao County Cement Factory last year. He passed the exam, but he can be pushed down, and now he is working as a substitute teacher in Commune Primary School, look, can you help him get a regular job?"

Meng Tao watched silently as the old man filled another pot of shredded tobacco and smoked it. If there was no wind blowing over and Meng Changshou was downwind, she would have stood up and moved her stool away. The taste is too choking.

"Grandpa, the school is in charge of the teacher's affairs. I haven't become a teacher myself. How can I help?"

"Ahem, Brother Jin Ling said, you can't, but Shen Yu is an official, it's useful for him to talk to his superiors."

"Shen Yu is not from our side, the county magistrate is not as good as he is now, how can he manage the schools in your commune?"

"Why can't you take care of it? High officials take care of small officials... Hey, you don't understand!"

"I don't understand, so what's the use of telling me? You can go to Shen Yu."

"...I don't want to disturb him and his eldest nephew drinking and talking with the educated youths. You go and call him, discuss it and help your cousin."

Meng Tao shook her head: "I won't go, it's useless to call him here, I can't help."

"Taohua, you just help Jin Lin. He came back from high school and is a talent. Our family obviously has a backer, so how can he just be a substitute teacher? And your cousins, all of whom are educated in junior high school. It's pitiful to do farm work at home. If you can take them with you, it's good to go to the city to find a job.

They wanted to follow you to see you today. This Taurus daughter-in-law is too powerful, so I didn't let her come.You also talk about the Taurus daughter-in-law, she should be filial and virtuous when she marries into our Meng family, how can she be like this?Dislike this and guard against that, relatives will beat and scold when they come..."

"Grandpa, please keep your voice down. Dongmei is good enough. I taught her not to allow the Meng family in Liuzhuang to enter this yard, but she still allows you to enter and serve you tea and water. Did you forget? Why don't you come down?" Don’t come again. Sit down, I’m leaving tomorrow, I should go to the village and talk to the folks.”

Meng Tao ignored Meng Changshou, got up and left on her own, and if she continued talking to the old man, her temper could not be suppressed.

Passing the kitchen door, Bao Dongmei called to her from inside, and handed her over a chopstick with a green dumpling stuck in it, which was still steaming and emitting a burst of fragrance of grass and leaves. Meng Tao caught it and saw that it was mugwort.

"Try it quickly, it's fresh and delicious just out of the cage." Bao Dongmei said with a smile.

Meng Tao took a bite and added sesame and peanut fillings. It was soft, glutinous, sweet and fragrant, as if eating the taste of spring.

"I'm so busy today and still have time to do this? You are double now, so be careful not to get tired."

"Don't worry, I didn't do it. I can't do such a good job. It's my mother, Aunt Yang, and Xiaoyun to help."

Meng Tao walked into the kitchen and saw three people busy inside: "Thank you! Oh, how did you do so much?"

Aunt Yu smiled and said: "Not many, just about three hundred, some steamed and some fried, I'll bring them back to you tomorrow, and I'll go back to my mother's house no matter what, we don't have any good things, just this wild vegetable dumpling, share some with relatives and neighbors Try something new."

Meng Tao: "This is the best. It's a blessing to eat some fresh mugwort leaves in spring. People in the city can't eat it if they want to, but how do you get it? I'm afraid it will stick together."

Aunt Yang said: "It can't be sticky. The steamed and fried ones are wrapped with bamboo shoot shells one by one and tied tightly with bamboo thread. Let it dry overnight, and it will be tough tomorrow. You can arrive soon by plane, and you are not afraid of spoiling. You can eat it directly, or heat it up in a steamer."

"Ah, they must like it. That's too much, isn't it? I'll just take a hundred."

"Take two hundred for you, and one hundred for brother Zhehan. The National Day said that your brother is a good match in school. Teachers and students are willing to find him. Let him share some hometown specialties for everyone to try."

"Then I'll take a hundred and keep a hundred for you to eat at home."

"Hey, when can we not eat it? There are a lot of mugwort leaves in the wild, so if you want to eat it, you can make it yourself."

"..."

Meng Tao knew that she couldn't resist, so she didn't say anything, and wanted to take two to her mother-in-law Xu Zhen. Dongmei said that her mother-in-law had eaten it, and she rushed to taste it as soon as the first steamer was steamed. She liked Ai Yexiang very much and even ate it Two, now holding Xiao Yunhai, taking Xiao Wangcai, and Jiang Limei to go for a walk outside the village.
