A peasant girl through the ages

Chapter 36
Lin Changhe became cruel: "Xinyu, please ask for leave tomorrow. Both of us will go to the valley to clean up a piece of land. It doesn't matter what we can plant. It's better than starving. Let's take your third uncle and younger uncle Bring out the one from home, too."

Du Qiuchan glared at her husband: "If you want to grow it yourself, the child still has to go to school, and the exam is about to come, what do you want to do? If the child can't go to middle school, you will ruin the future of the child. "

Lin Changhe made an excuse: "My daughter knows how to review. What can I do? It's not that I haven't read books. At this point, it's just my usual accumulation. No matter how much I study, it's useless."

Du Qiuchan gave her man a blank look: "If you say that, wouldn't it be more convenient to take the third and fourth children into the mountains, why do you have to take my daughter there?"

Lin Changhe smiled wryly: "You old woman, you know it well and you still ask?
Do the third and fourth children have the skills of our daughters?Just those two guys, if they encounter wild boars, they will leave me and run away first, our daughter is still reliable. "

Du Qiuchan really didn't dare to refute this: "It's good that you understand it in your heart, no matter how much a brother kisses, he can't kiss our daughter. Let me tell you, no matter what time it is, the child is the most important thing. Don't fight with me. It's time to come!" On the day when I don’t eat, I will let my daughter eat first, and I can’t care about others.”

Xinyu leaned against Du Qiuchan's arms, hugged her mother's arm and laughed so hard that she couldn't close her mouth.

"Mom, I'll be your daughter. Do you think I was a high-spirited woman in my previous life? Other families are patriarchal. When you're here, it's the daughter who is the most important thing."

Du Qiuchan touched her daughter's hair: "Your mother is not so big-minded. Your brother and sister must not be hungry now. They have food rations, but we don't. You are still young, so you can only take care of your mother first, and wait for your mother to grow old." You protect mom."

Xinyu nodded with a smile, Lin Changhe was a little sour, you said that when the wife was not at home, the girl kissed him, and when the wife was at home, his little padded jacket rebelled.

"Then it's done. I'll ask for leave for my daughter. This time I'll go directly to the teacher."

The teacher is in the village next door. The teacher knows what is going on at Xinyu's house. Lin Changhe is really well-known nearby.

This is why Xinyu has hired a fake teacher for so many days and hasn't found her yet.

Lin Changhe went to the teacher's house overnight to explain the situation, and then found out the time and place of the exam, and came back happily.

In the next few days, Xinyu and Lin Changhe were busy on the mountain. It must be too late to plant corn, but cabbage and radishes are no problem.

After Xinyu finished the test, the weather was so hot that it could burn people to a layer of oil, the water in the river was completely dry, the water level in the well was also plummeting, and the dry land was cracked up.

It's not that it hasn't rained during this period, it's just a drizzle, what do you think it can do, the ground is already wet.

Everyone has no idea. I heard that the situation outside is not good. Every household has already started to tighten their belts. Fortunately, at this time, the fruits and vegetables have come down, so they can at least fill their stomachs. But in winter, they What should I do?
The bubbling on the captain's mouth disappeared and then started to disappear again. The application report has been sent up, but there is no news. In fact, the big guys understand in their hearts that this situation is not just their village, but a large area. .

After Xinyu's exams, Lin Jianbin and Qiaoling came back to give Xinyu a gift. The elder brother bought her a new pair of sandals and a set of summer clothes.The notebooks and pens that Lin Qiaoling bought for her younger sister are what Xinyu needs most right now.

Lin Changhe also asked his son about the outside situation and food issues.

"It's extremely expensive. The coarse grains alone cost more than two yuan. Dad, is there enough food for our family?"

The things were prepared by Lin Jianbin, he knew it well, and the price must be cheap.

Upon hearing the price, Lin Changhe sighed: "Your third uncle said that he won't do it for more than one yuan, and I guess he can't buy it right now."

Lin Changhai's family is not the same as Lin Changgui's fourth brother. The fourth child has his mother-in-law's family to help, but the third child really has nothing to look forward to. The mother-in-law's family is poorer than theirs, so it is impossible to help the third child. Earning work points, the three children can't count on it, Lin Changhe is anxious, but there is no way, their family has food for the time being, but they have no money.

How could Lin Jianbin not see Lin Changhe's embarrassed expression?

"Dad, why don't you ask again, after passing this village, there is no such shop, and life is much better now than before, every family has two coins in their hands, why is it better than ours?"

Lin Changhe got up and went out to discuss the matter with his brother.

Although Du Qiuchan didn't follow, she could probably guess the result.

"Your third uncle is definitely not willing to part with it. If it doesn't rain, he may still consider it, but he is definitely not willing to part with these few light rains."

Lin Jianbin didn't care about it, he bought whatever he liked and didn't starve him. When their family was poor, no one thought about it for them.

"Xinyu, do you want to go to the city for a few days?"

Xinyu shook her head: "No, I have to chop firewood and hunt prey to grow wild vegetables.

Brother, the sausage and bacon on the mountain are almost ready, you can sell it, and I will go to the mountain to get it later. "

Lin Jianbin knew the price of meat outside the most. It was ridiculously high, but if someone bought it, it wasn't too expensive. As long as you could eat it, someone would ask for it no matter how high the price was.

"Is it really possible to get it? Don't destroy the inventory at home and you can't get it anymore. Isn't the gain outweigh the loss?"

Xinyu can be sure of this, and Du Qiuchan also agrees to sell it. It can earn a lot of money. Meat can be eaten or not, and people can't starve to death. The children in the family are not young, so they have to save money to marry.

It's a pity that Du Qiuchan didn't know that Xinyu had a private deal with Lin Jianbin. If she knew about the funds in her son's hands, she might not think so.

"Then I'll call Dawu and see if I can transport it away tonight."

There is no need to ask Lin Changhe's expression when he comes back, what is the result of the big guy's natural way.

Du Qiuchan comforted me: "If you don't want to buy it, we can't force it, right? Don't worry about it, the family has been separated, can you still be the master of someone else's family?"

Lin Changhe also knew that he was troubled, so he could only let out a long sigh.

The family of four went straight to the mountain after dinner. It didn't rain and there wasn't much work in the field, so it wasn't a big deal to delay a day's work.

When Lin Jianbin and Qiaoling saw the rows of things in the temple, they were dumbfounded.

"Mom, why did you do so much?"

Lin Changhe snorted: "No matter how much it is, your father and I will carry it back. I am almost exhausted. Your mother said, save more money for you, and we will not worry about anything in the future.

Jianbin, look back, this thing is sold, buy a house when you should buy a house, both of you brothers and sisters work in the city, it is not a matter of a day or two, buy what you need to buy, save money Too much is not a good thing. "

Qiaoling said from the side: "Dad, you can really think about it."

Lin Changhe sighed: "Your father and I have not accomplished much in this life. Our family will rely on you three children to support each other in the future. Your father and I have no other skills, but this vision is still possible."

Du Qiuchan rolled her eyes at her man directly: "You can pull it down, and pay back your eyesight, it's better to have no eyes than yours."
