The Age of Rebirth: I lead the whole village to become rich

Chapter 24
It's getting colder in December. Fortunately, the kang was heated up last night. In this season, there is no kang that cannot survive the winter.

Xie Ci put on a heavy cotton-padded jacket and trousers, and climbed down the kang with difficulty, Liang Xiu and the child were still sound asleep.

As soon as Xie Ci stepped out of the house, he was so cold and trembling that he didn't dare to stretch out his hands.

Picking up the lid, the water in the big urn was frozen. He took a ladle and smashed the ice layer on the big urn hard. Break open the ice.

Scoop the water into the kettle and put it on the stove in the house to boil the water.

I started to sweep the snow in the yard and in front of the door with a big broom.

Just after sweeping the snow, I heard Shi An start howling.

As soon as he entered the room, he saw Liangxiu breastfeeding. After a while, Shi An was full and giggled on the bed.

Xie Ci said while hugging Shi An, "I heard that the educated youths in the city are going to go to the countryside recently, and the villages have begun to divide them. I heard that our village is also going to pick up the educated youths today. I don't know what happened to the educated youths in the city. So, what if you don’t adapt to our rural life.”

While washing his face, Liangxiu chatted absently, "A few days ago, my second uncle wrote, saying that Liangshu is also in the team going to the countryside this time. I don't know if he can be assigned to our village. If he is assigned to our village, he can take care of him." .”

Seeing that she was about to finish washing her face, Xie Ci quickly handed her the towel.

He comforted softly, "Second Uncle has been a soldier for so many years, so he must have connections. It's useless for you to get angry now. It's best to be assigned to our village. If you can't be assigned to us, it must be not far from us. Let's go help Just do it."

Liangxiu wiped his face, sighed, and said resignedly, "That's the only way to go. The second uncle has helped our family a lot. I'm not optimistic that I can repay others after hard work. I can't help anymore. The kindness I owe in this life It can't be replaced."

Xie Ci took the towel, thought for a moment, and said softly, "Don't tell your mother about this beforehand, if you don't get it, our mother will be even more worried."

With a pursed mouth, Liangxiu glanced at him, and said casually, "I don't know, my mother has a lot of thoughts. If I tell her, she will have insomnia every day. She is so busy every day that her feet don't touch the ground, I'm sure You can't make trouble for her."

Liangxiu’s second uncle participated in the War of Resistance Against Japan, and after the war ended, he stayed in the Nancheng army as an official. Because the whole family has urban hukou, each household had to have one child go to the countryside.

Liangshu happened to be old enough to graduate from high school, so he went to the countryside.

The second uncle has been running around a few days ago, hoping to distribute Liangshu to Dasong Village.

Sure enough, after a while, Jing Qiao rushed in excitedly, "Thank you, the village party secretary said that we don't have to go to work today, let us young men take the old Wangtou's donkey cart to pick up the educated youths from the city, who got off last night. There's too much snow, let's be careful on the road."

Xie Ci joked while nibbling on the cornbread, "Jing Qiao, you have been very active at work recently. The neighbors in the neighborhood say that you have changed a lot recently. I heard that there are still people who want to kiss you."

Jing Qiao blushed, pushed him, and said solemnly, "Don't talk nonsense, I am innocent. If it gets out, my reputation will be ruined."

Hearing this, Xie Ci almost choked and coughed for a long time before recovering.

Liang Xiu hurriedly patted him on the back, and teased Jing Qiao, "You are still innocent, I am laughing to death. To be honest, you have changed a lot recently. Lao Tian even asked me, did you take the wrong medicine recently? What are you doing?" Live so hard."
