"Let me say a few words before we start the banquet."

Li Dahe held a bowl of sorghum wine and looked at about thirty round tables filled with dishes, the corners of his mouth raised.

I recall that three years ago, when Li Xiaoshan and Wang Xixi got married, Aunt Li had to work hard to come up with four dishes, and each person could only get half a bowl of wine - which was mixed with water.

The old and the young all looked at him, but no one moved their chopsticks first.

"Ahem," Li Dahe cleared his throat tactically, and then said, "Today's meal is mainly to celebrate the completion of the college entrance examination for Xiaofei and Xiaosi——" As he said, he pointed to several high school students in the village, "Our team He is the top pick in the country, and Lin Yatou has been proofing it for you in the front, so it won’t be difficult to come up with another one, right?”

"It's not... hard... it's okay..."

"Well, it doesn't take much effort." Li Dahe nodded with satisfaction.

"Uncle, what I said is 'no, just put in the effort'."

Li Dahe glanced at him, turned to Wang Hong and said, "Hongzi, remember this, I'll beat him up tomorrow."

Wang Hong really stood up and took a look. After confirming which one was the loser, she said with a scary smile: "Okay, I remember it."

"...!"

Li Dahe glared at him and continued: "Folks, our life is good now, and it will be even better in the future. I will say three things -"

"First, we cannot leave the work in the fields behind. This is our root and cannot be thrown away;"

"Second, the factory must train skilled workers. The first batch will be those aged 20 to 28. The old comrades will carry forward their style. We will wait for the second and third batches;"

"Third, I'll catch you kid for studying. From today on, Director Wang Hong, in addition to being responsible for women's affairs, will set up a special supervision and study group. If any of you dare to cheat, I'll beat you without any discussion!"

"Okay, I'm done, drink!"

Li Dahe finished speaking concisely and raised the wine bowl.

Lin Nianhe looked at the soda bottle in front of him, then at the wine in Su Yuncheng's bowl, and licked his lips: "Brother Yuncheng, actually I..."

Before Su Yuncheng could nod, Li Dahe took a break from his busy schedule to pay special attention to Lin Nianhe: "If you dare to drink, I will lock you up in the cowshed tonight!"

Lin Nianhe: "..."

There is no need to care about her so much.

Everyone drank all the wine or drinks in their bowls and moved their chopsticks with smiles on their faces.

"Nianhe, eat quickly. This chicken was raised by my aunt. It's delicious." Widow Zhao quickly put a chicken leg into Lin Nianhe's bowl.

"Thank you Aunt Zhao." Lin Nianhe took a bite and rolled his eyes with a smile, "It's delicious."

The chickens raised by Widow Zhao are indeed delicious. The chickens are chewy but not hard.

Farming and breeding are both very magical things. Some people are very good at serving the dealer, some are good at raising small animals, and some can't even raise a cactus.

"That's for sure," Widow Zhao said quite proudly, "I've never convinced anyone about raising chickens."

"With your skills, you can open a chicken farm in the future." Lin Nianhe said casually.

"Doing business? You wouldn't dare." Widow Zhao shook her head repeatedly.

Lin Nianhe just said it casually, but now that he thought about it carefully, his thoughts became more alive.

Not everyone in the village can work in the match factory. After all, the factory's production line is semi-automatic, and only young and strong people can do the stuffing work.

Work like cutting matchboxes can actually be completely replaced by machines. Li Dahe has never switched to machines. The main reason is to leave a bowl of rice for the elderly villagers.

This bowl of rice can still be kept now, but when lighters replace matches...

Lin Nianhe was eating chicken legs and looked at Li Dahe.

Uncle Captain was surrounded by many people toasting and had no time.

Lin Nianhe silently kept this matter in mind, planning to wait until the captain sobered up before talking about it.

"Xiaohe! Come on, let me give you a big thumbs up!"

Xie Yufei's face turned red from drinking and he raised his wine bowl towards Lin Nianhe.

Lin Nianhe came back to his senses and gave him a puzzled look: "Why do you respect me, you're so good?" "Hey, you know."

Xie Yufei spoke vaguely, his eyes stained with sadness.

Xie Yufei was doing better when he was reviewing for the college entrance examination, but other things diverted his attention. Now that the college entrance examination is over, all he can think about is Guan Manling.

"Okay, okay, don't say that," Lin Nianhe put his arm around his shoulders, picked up the wine bowl and poured it into his mouth, "Drink, it's all in the wine."

Lin Nianhe saw what he was thinking and formulated an effective solution - getting him drunk.

After drinking too much and falling asleep, think about it as much as you want, as long as he doesn't go to the granary to play with melancholy.

Half an hour later, Xie Yufei fell under the table.

Lin Nianhe: "Come on, next one."

Sun Yafei on the side blinked, put down the small wine cup, and replaced it with soda: "Sister Nianhe, I'd better not drink anymore, hahaha..."

The innocent Sun Yafei thought that Lin Nianhe was going to stuff both of them under the table today.

Lin Nianhe touched the soda bottles with her, and did not talk about the exam, but just talked about common things.

After three rounds of drinking, when the atmosphere was getting heated, the phone at the brigade headquarters rang.

But no one heard it, and they were still pushing cups and changing cups.

Lin Nianhe heard it, and Su Yuncheng also heard it.

"I'll pick it up." Lin Nianhe stood up, "Maybe Uncle Wang has good news."

"Well, I'll accompany you."

Su Yuncheng accompanied Lin Nianhe to the brigade headquarters.

Lin Nianhe picked up the phone: "Hello, this is Shili Brigade."

"Hey, Xiao Lin!"

It’s really Wang Xiao.

"There's good news!"

It's really good news.

Lin Nianhe smiled and asked, "Uncle Wang, what's the matter?"

"It's Sun Yafei's matter," Wang Xiao said with a smile, "I just received a notice - Comrade Sun Yafei's family matter is over, and she can return to Shanghai after completing the procedures!"

Lin Nianhe: "...!"

Wang Xiao also said a lot, saying that he was still talking in the provincial capital and couldn't get back for a while, so he asked Li Dahe to go through other procedures for her first. If he wanted to sign the final signature, he could ask Sun Yafei to go to the provincial capital to sign it for him. .

Three minutes later, the loudspeaker of the Shili Brigade sounded:

"Folks, here is a piece of news: After accurate verification by Mr. Wang, Comrade Sun Yafei's parents have now been cleared of their grievances, and she, she can go home."

The grain drying field suddenly became quiet.

The shocked villagers looked at Sun Yafei, who was also stunned, and remained silent for a long time.

They all remember that this girl was small and pretty when she first arrived, but it was obvious that she had never worked. Moreover, she was very unlucky. She had just arrived in time for the autumn harvest. She had never done farm work before, so she didn’t know how to do it and didn’t dare to ask.

She carefully distanced herself from everyone, as if she was afraid of injuring others.

The folks gave her warmth, and she never forgot them.

Shili Brigade is also her home.

Now, this little girl who always makes people feel sorry for her, her grievances are finally coming to an end.

In the silence, Li Dahe was the first to stand up. Instead of walking towards Sun Yafei, he staggered towards the brigade headquarters, muttering: "This little brat is so brave, he dares to touch my radio station..." "

He turned his back to everyone and wiped his eyes.
