Back to the era with space supplies

Chapter 127 She Can't Help Them

There was the long breathing of the girls in the room, and the cries of grasshoppers and other small reptiles outside. After listening for a while, Si Ningning tentatively turned over. After noticing that there was no leakage, she got up carefully, put on her shoes and tiptoed out of the room.

I'm a little hungry...

Si Ningning entered the space, first went to the bathroom, and then went to the kitchen to wash some rice and cook porridge.

Taking advantage of the time between cooking the porridge, Si Ningning nestled on the sofa in the living room and spent all the money he earned during the day.

Most of them were bills of one or two dimes, and the largest denomination was the black ten yuan given by Mo Bei.

The largest denomination of rmb in this era is ten yuan, and it is called differently in different periods. For example, ten yuan, there are two names that Si Ningning knows, one is "Heishiyuan" and the other is "" great unity".

There are not many sets of black ten yuan, and there are few mobile ones on the market, and they are more valuable for collection in later generations.

Si Ningning stretched out the black coin and looked at it from near to far.

There are not many creases on the banknotes, and there is not much wear and tear. It can be seen that Mo Bei usually takes good care of them.

Si Ningning's deer eyes flickered and turned, and an inexplicable idea came to his mind.

Collect carefully, on the one hand, it may be because the amount of this banknote is not small, on the other hand, can you also see a little bit of Mo Bei's character and behavior?
Putting his thumb against his middle finger and flicking the banknotes, Si Ningning got up and went to the study room, wandered back and forth in front of the bookshelf twice, pulled out an idiom dictionary from the top, casually uncovered the middle part and carefully put the black ten-dollar clip entered, and then took the dictionary all the way to the living room.

Afterwards, Si Ningning did the same thing, whenever he saw a well-preserved banknote, Si Ningning carefully smoothed it out and put it in the dictionary to pick it up.

She has a computer and a mobile phone in her space, but there is no Internet. Whether it is collecting these things or passing the time, she must find a "hobby" to enrich and entertain her life.

25 catties of rice sold for 12 yuan and 12 cents, two bags of noodles totaling 28 catties earned [-] yuan, and military water bottles cost [-] yuan.

It doesn't look like much, but it is a month's wages for a middle-class factory worker in this era.

As soon as the stored bills were removed, only 16 yuan and [-] cents remained in the flexible money in his hand, which also included Si Ningning's original surplus of more than one yuan.

With more than a dozen dollars stacked together, it felt like 1 yuan was squeezed out in a thick pile. Si Ningning felt that he had earned a lot of money, but he didn't seem to have earned it completely.

Among the educated youths, this amount of money must be a surplus, but combined with Si Ningning's previous living conditions, this is really not enough.

I don't know when the next holiday will be. After much deliberation, Si Ningning decided to wait until dawn to go to town again.

After making a decision, the rice cooker in the kitchen beeped, and Si Ningning filled a bowl of porridge and drank it. The ingredients and seasonings in the space were quite comprehensive, but there was no side dish to go with the porridge. She thought to herself , look back and see if I can try to do a little bit.

The temperature of the space was constant, and after eating a bowl of hot porridge, Si Ningning sweated a lot on her forehead. However, the temperature of the space was constant, so she didn't feel hot at all. Instead, she felt that her belly, which had been swollen and uncomfortable, was much more comfortable.

Without the "burden" of her body, Si Ningning's mood improved significantly. After hastily washing the dishes and chopsticks, she returned to the kitchen, and then went to inspect the situation of the pigs and vegetable fields.

A few pigs were already taller than Si Ningning's knees. Except for the pig feed for the first few days, they basically only ate cucumber vines and pig grass. Now they are tall, but they don't have much fat on their bodies.

Si Ningning speculates that there is no fat-stimulating hormone in the green plants, and she still comforts herself in her heart: no hormone is a good thing.

I absolutely do not admit that the pigs are not full enough to be so thin.

There are several types of fodder for feeding pigs locally, but any wild grass that can be obtained locally and cut anywhere is called "pig grass".

Having received the information from Chen Lianmi before, Si Ningning circled a separate area in the space, and transplanted a kind of vine grass with dark red buds and some purslane into it.

These two kinds are the easiest to get pigweed in the countryside, but because there are not many labor points for cutting pigweed, only two work points for cutting four baskets a day. Grandma shares the burden of the family.

The transplanted hogweeds are growing very well, especially the vines with dark red buds, which are growing like crazy.

In order to make it easier for them to climb the vines, Si Ningning built a simple triangular climbing frame out of bamboo just after transplanting it, and cut some to feed the pigs every day. Now the long row of triangular climbing frames is still being climbed by vines. Full.

But these are not enough, and several tripod climbing frames need to be expanded.

After all, pigs continue to grow and eat more and more.

According to the usual practice, Si Ningning mowed a large garbage can full of pig grass to feed the pigs, and then cut off the remaining bamboo in the space. Three sections of bamboo were nailed into the soil to form a cone. Between the cones, a complete bamboo is placed as a connected climbing frame.

Although vine grass belongs to the vine family, it is still different from melon vines and grape vines.Being close to the ground, the stolons dig into the soil, allowing them to grow nice and dense.

In order to ensure that the rattan and grass cutting frame will not be easily damaged by shaking, Si Ningning found some ropes to bind and fix it.

There was no hemp rope in the space, so I turned over some sweater thread to replace it. After the two rows of shelves were tied up, I pressed my hand on the shelf and pushed it back and forth twice to make sure it was stable. in front of the shelf.

She didn't look for a hoe, so she pulled it twice with her hands on the spot, pulled out three or four rooted stolons from the bottom, and buried them under the newly built shelf, so that the work was completely completed.

After that it was just waiting.

Waiting to take root and sprout new shoots...

In addition to the transplanted pigweed, all kinds of melons and vegetables grew wildly in the space, and the amount was too large. Si Ningning occasionally picked some of them to feed the pigs. The problem of pig rations had basically been solved.

What made Si Ningning even more headache was the pig manure.

Pigs eat a lot and pull a lot. As the pigs get bigger and bigger, the problem of dealing with pig manure is imminent.

The soil of the space is fertile enough, there is no need to increase the fertilizer at all, and Si Ningning does not want to make the space dirty.

In the past, the pigs were still small, and they didn’t pull much. Pig manure was usually disposed of by her and dumped in the mountain bamboo forest, or secretly dumped in the field row of the production team. But this method was only for the past. Get more, it doesn't work at all.

The composting pit is only that big. If you say you want to pour a small bucket or half a bucket into it, others will not be able to see it, but if the composting pit is piled up to the top, even a fool will be able to see it!
Gotta figure out a way...

Si Ningning frowned and "tsk tsk" to add water and food to a few pigs, and then went into the house and took a hot shower to get rid of the strange smell.

I rubbed the clothes I soaked before and poured them into the washing machine, and I packed up the things I planned to take to the town after dawn. After I finished drying the clothes, I got out of the space, and quietly climbed into the bed and lay down.

Tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep, until it was dawn, the sound of a rooster crowing could be faintly heard from the brigade. Si Ningning finally couldn't lie down anymore. She rolled to get up, but when she saw the bed at her feet, Xu Shuhua got up first.

Si Ningning raised his head, "Why are you going?"

"Go to the toilet."

"Oh!" Si Ningning said "Oh", and got up after fumbling.

Xu Shuhua looked at her sleepily, "Why are you going? Today is a day off, the big guys can't get up for breakfast, you don't have to get up so early."

Si Ningning paused for a while as she put on her shoes, and then she remembered that according to the calculation of the day, one month has passed since she went to the countryside, and today happens to be a new week. Last week Xu Shuhua cooked and cleaned, and this week it was her turn to cook and clean It's hygienic.

"I thought about it last night. There are still some things I haven't bought. I have to go to the town again... Shuhua, I'm going to leave now. You can give me a full day of work today, okay?"

Xu Shuhua nodded, but said again: "Can you do it alone? It's not even dawn..."

"It's fine, it's fine, I've memorized the route... I'm going to the main road, there are wheel marks over there, I promise not to lose them." Si Ningning said, packing the ticket.

Xu Shuhua was still worried, and wanted to go with Si Ningning, but she was short of money, so she didn't buy anything when she went, worrying that Si Ningning would think too much.

She was still hesitating, but Si Ningning had already finished washing in a hurry, and ran away without a trace with her basket on her back. What was so anxious was that she didn't even make the bed.

Xu Shuhua was speechless for a while, and folded the blanket on Si Ningning's bed neatly, muttering in her heart: Nothing will happen, right...?
These days, a letter of introduction is required for traveling far away. For example, when a commune member goes to the county, a letter of introduction must be issued by the production team leader or team leader, but it is not necessary to go to the town for daily shopping.

Even so, Si Ningning is not a native of the team. As an educated youth from outside, she needs to report to the "organization" when she travels.

So, after greeting Zhao Hongbing to the production team, Si Ningning set off for the town.

At around 06:30 in the morning, there were already large orange-red clouds floating in the east, and there was heavy dew on the road.

Walking out from the production team, Si Ningning glanced in the distance inadvertently. The mountain road he was about to go was shrouded in mist, indistinct, like ink scattered in the water.

It looked a bit mysterious.

Si Ningning didn't feel scared by himself, he walked steadily step by step with the empty basket on his shoulder.

As she told Xu Shuhua in the morning, she took the big road.

After walking all the way to the cable bridge, making sure that there was no detour, Si Ningning looked around, stepped into the space, changed into the outfit from yesterday in advance, and then went out of the space to continue walking. It was almost eight o'clock in the town.

Si Ningning went to the state-run restaurant first, ordered a bowl of porridge for a penny, and when it was brought to the table, he also presented a small dish of sour radish.

The one who ordered and delivered the dishes was the same woman from last time.

The woman didn't recognize Si Ningning, she didn't say much when faced with the fact that the "guest" only wanted a bowl of porridge, and her expression was quite normal.

Probably really frightened by Si Ningning's words, and more or less improved his memory.

Si Ningning didn't continue to entangle in this matter. After finishing his porridge, he left the state-run restaurant with a basket.

I went to the black market on the same road I walked yesterday, but when I turned a corner, I was blocked by someone.

As long as you pass this corner, you will immediately see the barren grass...

"Hey! What are you doing?"

A boy with a crew cut blocked Si Ningning's way, holding a short wooden stick against Si Ningning's stomach, forcing Si Ningning to retreat repeatedly.

The soles of Si Ningning's feet were high-heeled shoes. In addition, the road was uneven, and when someone blocked her without warning, she staggered and almost didn't fall down. Fortunately, there was an alley wall beside her, so she quickly gave her a hand.

There are several people behind the boy, both men and women, all of average age.

There were five or six people in the group, holding wooden sticks in their hands. In the corner beside them, there were two black-skinned men and a middle-aged woman with messy hair.

Si Ningning quickly glanced around silently, the two men squatted with their heads in their hands and did not speak, while the middle-aged woman silently shed tears.

A bamboo basket fell on the ground, and I don't know whose it belonged. The broken eggs and egg liquid in it flowed everywhere...

Highway robbery?Black eat black?

Si Ningning's heart skipped a beat, and her brain turned left quickly. However, because she didn't answer in time, Xiaoping frowned, and pushed her fiercely again, "I'm asking you something!"

"Why are you talking nonsense with him? You're carrying such a big basket on your back when you walk this road, and you're destined to be like those stinky rats, doing shady things!" said another young man with a flat head and a horse face.

"That's right, let's take his basket over and have a look! If it's really for that shameful business, it's better for us to take it away than to let him drill holes. Anyway, even without us, someone else will come!!" Among the five or six people, the only girl with shofar braids said.

This group of people is not very old, but they are very thoughtful. Do they just come out to stay and bully the honest people who come out to resell and place orders? It’s okay to cooperate and give things to you. .

The idea of ​​hugging is that you are not clean anyway, and I am not clean, so go out and sue if you are capable!

There are many enemies and we are few, Si Ningning is certainly upset in his heart, but he also knows that he cannot confront these people openly at the moment.

"The situation is constantly changing. If you want to adapt your thinking to the new situation, you have to learn." Si Ningning said the characteristic quotations of this era, and took off the backpack calmly, "Comrade, I am going to pick up people at the ferry. of."

The more you say the more you make mistakes, the more loopholes will become more. Si Ningning clicked to the end, and after passing the basket, he began to keep silent.

In the 70s and [-]s, everyone talked about the quotations of great men. It was common to go out and match the quotations. It is even more glorious to be able to match the quotations.

Ordinary people usually only know those two simple sentences, what is "study hard and make progress every day", and the other is "serve the people".

Xiaopingtou and his group look at me, I look at you, and then look at Si Ningning, who is dressed in men's clothing and has a handsome face. Bar?

Xiaoping was a little nervous, and the basket in his hand was light and fluffy. He took off the cloth covering the mouth of the basket and looked again, and there was really nothing inside. Looking at everything from before and after, Si Ningning really didn't look like he was engaged in reselling.

I got used to eating soft and not hard, and worried about offending others, I scolded "bad luck" in my mouth, kicked and kicked the basket back to Si Ningning, and said impatiently: "Okay, it's nothing to do with you, Hurry up and go."
