lady, please calm down

Chapter 121

23. Tanggua sticky.

24. Sweep the house.

25. Grind tofu.
As the New Year approaches, Luliuxu becomes more and more lively.

Most of the young and strong in the village have errands in the agricultural reclamation group, and there are not a few young women working in workshops.

There are more dual-career and single-career families, and the villagers' pursuit of material life has gradually increased.

To meet this demand, the Layueli Land Reclamation Group opened a grocery store in the village.

You can buy oil, soy sauce, vinegar, tea, needles and thread brains for daily needs in the grocery store, saving you from going to the county town to purchase.

However, the original intention of the establishment of the grocery store is to provide convenience for everyone, not simply to pursue profit first. Many daily necessities are sold at affordable prices, and some products are even cheaper than those sold in Tongshan County.

As a result, people from other surrounding villages also came here to buy New Year's goods, causing many goods to be out of stock.

The grocery store is an internal store of the Nongken Group, so it naturally needs to meet the needs of internal personnel first.

So at Chen Chu's suggestion, the group issued a 'ticket' that only employees could redeem.

One is the small denomination, which is divided into three types: "two coins", "five coins" and "ten coins".

The bills are two inches long and one inch wide, and the face of the bill is dyed pink, also known as small pink coins.

Another kind of large denomination is divided into "Dang fifty money" and "Dang a hundred money".

It is three inches long and two inches wide and narrow, with a downhill fierce tiger printed on the front. The whole body is white, and it is also called "white tiger coin".

In order to facilitate the daily exchange of employees, an internal bank named "Four Banks" quietly opened.

Chen Chu didn't study economics, but he also knew the necessity and advantages of currency autonomy. This kind of internal currency bills had little influence and a narrow circulation range, so he just took this opportunity to observe the problems that occurred during the use process.

In addition, Chen Chu, who kept in mind that "there is grain but no guns, his home is a granary", also made small changes to the Luliuxu joint defense team.

He also didn't understand the military system. He only knew that military rank was the basis of military management and command.

But at the moment, he definitely can't just use the official rank of 'General, Colonel'. If it spreads out, you, a little boss, dare to confer a military position indiscriminately, that's the word 'rebellion' written on your face.

On the 25th of the twelfth lunar month, the newly expanded Luliuwei joint defense team stood neatly under the ginkgo tree in the village.

Standing on the steps, Chen Chu was quite satisfied looking at the group of peasant men.

Don't say whether you can fight or not, just say that you are not evenly aligned!
The spirit is still there.

The current joint defense team is divided into five teams, each team has ten members, and there is a captain and a vice captain.

Above the fifth team, Yang Dalang and Liu Erhu served as the deputy team members, and Chen Chu personally served as the captain and instructor.

Liu Erhu's role as the deputy team leader was beyond the expectations of many people, even many Luliuwei villagers did not expect it.

On the contrary, Cai Wei, who was sitting in the distance watching the excitement, saw some clues.

The appointment of Liu Erhu is probably to balance the fleeing households and Luliuxu.

If Shangguan appoints all the old brothers from the fleeing village, Luliuxu villagers will inevitably feel that they are working for others, which will affect the sense of belonging to the team and easily create estrangement.

Furthermore, the appointment of Liu Erhu can be regarded as setting an example for others. You see, a few months ago, Erhu was digging in the soil all day long like the others and couldn't afford enough food and clothing.

Now, he has become the vice-captain with four monthly salaries, let's work hard with the boss!

At that time, Mao'er led the women in the village to work for half a month, and issued the "tools" of the joint defense team.

The winter overalls are black jackets, which is the most common style.

The slight difference is that there is a shoulder strap sewn on each shoulder of the black jacket, and the shoulder straps of ordinary players are only fixed on the shoulders with buttons.

However, Peng Er, the eldest son, Liu Dahu, Wu Kui, and Zhou Liang, the team leaders, wore an epaulette on their shoulder straps, and a small sword pattern was embroidered with green thread on the red epaulet.

Green embroidered sword, representing the level of bronze.

The epaulettes of Yang Dalang and Liu Erhu, the two deputy captains, were embroidered with a small silver sword.

Silver embroidered sword, representing the level of silver.

Chen Chu's epaulettes are small yellow swords
The representative level is gold. It is said that gold should be sewn with gold thread, but this is illegal at the moment. Chen Chu can only use yellow thread as the next best thing, but yellow is very good. Chen Chu has liked this color since he was a child.

Several people put on new work clothes, and gathered together laughing and looking at each other, Wu Kui touched the small silver sword on Da Lang's shoulder, Da Lang quickly slapped Wu Kui's hand away in disgust, "Wu Tongjian, see you later Shangguan must be respected, how can this epaulette be touched randomly?"

Wu Kui naturally knew that Yang Dalang was joking, and said enviously, "When will I be able to become a silver sword?"

But Yao Meili thought about it, and persuaded in a loud voice, "Brother Kui, there is no difference between a copper sword and a silver sword. We are all swordsmen, and there is a distinction between them."

"Yes, yes, we are all swordsmen, we should not divide each other!"

Liu Erhu who suddenly got a high position also quickly echoed.

Hearing this, Chen Chu couldn't help but fell into deep thought as he looked at the noisy crowd of swordsmen.
Great!
Everyone has become a swordsman, is it possible to call the army of swordsmen in the future?
'Today's headline: Chen Dutou led an army of swordsmen to break through a certain pass. Yang Yinjian and Liu Yinjian split into two groups, and led an army of swordsmen to join forces on a certain day in a certain year'

Chen Chu couldn't help but shudder, Xiaojian's logo had to be changed!
However, even if it is changed, it will have to wait until the next year.

In the next few days, the entire Luliuxu fell into an inexplicable excitement and restlessness.

Needless to say, the significance of the New Year to the Chinese people is that poor people also need a day or two of reunion, delicious food and new clothes to add a little hope for the coming year.

With the warmth of people in the market, reject the temptation to become immortals and Buddhas, and appease the brats who always want to make big news.

Even the deceitful rascals, the officials who urge to pay taxes, and the squires who are full of benevolence and morality but cannibalize people will take a rest in these few days to let the people breathe.

The world is not good enough, but I always hope it will get better.
At least Luliuxu's life is getting better and better.

The 26th of the twelfth lunar month.

The live pigs uniformly purchased by the Agricultural Reclamation Group rushed into Luliuxu, and the temporary slaughter team was sharpening their knives under the leadership of Yao Sanbian.

A few days ago, Chen Chucai heard from Da Lang that Uncle Yao also had the skill of slaughtering and slaughtering animals.

The nickname of "Three Whips" is because he gave pigs, cows, and horses to people before he escaped from home. In the past, because of the convenience of work, Uncle Yao often ate three whips of pigs, cattle and horses, so he got the name Yao Sanbian.
Chen Chu, who was squatting by the side to watch the butcher, suddenly remembered Aunt Yao's complaint that Uncle Yao had become more and more useless in recent years, and thought: Could it be because Uncle Yao didn't have three whips to eat after he went up the mountain, which made him weak?
At the same time, he also thought that Uncle Yao knows how to weed pigs, so next year he might be able to set up a small pig farm outside the village and raise dozens of pigs.

After birth control, pigs can not only grow fat quickly and shorten the breeding cycle, but also produce pork with much less fishy smell.

However, the current pain point of raising pigs is the inability to effectively prevent and control epidemics, so it is doomed that the scale should not be large, and it needs to be dispersed as much as possible.

'Aw~ow~ow~'

The big black pig with its four hooves bound seemed to know that the group of terrifying two-legged beasts around it were eating its body, and screamed desperately.

Uncle Yao finished sharpening the knife, and scratched the blade with his thumb to feel the sharpness, before walking forward.

Like a calm swordsman.

Chen Chu squatted on the ground and watched with relish.

Yunong held Chen Chu's arm and squatted aside, with her head resting on Chen Chu's shoulder, as if she wanted to see the slaughter of a pig but didn't dare.

On the other hand, Hutou, Wu Junru, and Da Ya couldn't stop moving forward. Uncle Yao reprimanded them, but the three little girls still didn't care about it, and they were not afraid of being stained with blood splashing on their new clothes.

After a while, the big black pig, full of nostalgia for the human world, stopped struggling. Uncle Yao and others quickly splashed water, scalded the pig, and then hung the pig on the shelf.

Hutou, who had been standing at the forefront of the crowd, hurriedly took another step forward, pinched his waist with one hand and pointed at Zhu Dingding, and said crisply, "Uncle, give this small intestine to my family."

As soon as Hutou finished speaking, Wu Junru on the side also said: "Yao Wengweng, give this intestine to my family!"

"What do you want it for!" Hutou was displeased.

"What do you want it for?" Wu Junru asked back.

"I took it home and gave it to my brother. Sister Yu Nong said it nourishes the body!"

Ok?
The people who eat melons suddenly fell silent.

No, Wu Junru also said: "I'll take it home and feed it to my mother!"

"Your mother doesn't like to eat!" Hutou said unreasonably.

"How do you know that my mother doesn't like to eat it! I woke up the night before and saw my mother holding my father's chute." At the critical moment, Wu Junru was covered by Mrs. Wu who jumped out of nowhere.

Joyful laughter resounded in Luliuxu.

Mrs. Wu pinched her daughter under her armpit, lowered her head and rushed out of the crowd. Before returning to her residence, she slapped Wu Junru's ass
Wu Junru, who was crying, thought that he was wronged, and he kindly asked his mother for a piece of pig intestines, why did the mother beat him?
Human emotions are not connected, Junru Wu thinks she is very filial, Mrs. Wu only thinks her daughter is stupid.
Over there, Chen Chu took Yunong and quietly escaped from the scene of possible social death.

Fortunately, he was replaced by the even hotter Mrs. Wu.

"Yunong! Why do you tell Hutou everything!"

"Nunu only talked about mending the body, but didn't say anything else." Yunong was also very aggrieved.

The two did not go far.

Meeting Cai Wei head-on, Cai Wei took a pair of bowls and chopsticks and just walked out of Luliuxu Canteen.

The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and even if some workers are settled in Shuanghe Village, it will not be as lively as Luliuxu.

For the past few days, Cai Hua has to wander around Luliuxu every day.

When Yunong saw Cai Wei, she subconsciously let go of Chen Chu's arm. But then she thought, Nunu is now the young lady of the Chen family, and Mrs. Cai San is not my eldest lady. Why am I afraid of her?

Thinking so, Yu Nong didn't continue to take Chen Chu's arm, but only gently grabbed Chen Chu's index finger with her catkin.

It seemed that he wanted to say 'I'm not afraid of you', but he didn't dare to be too intimate.

Cai Wei saw Yunong's careful thinking at a glance, rolled her eyes and was too lazy to talk to her, and stretched out her hand to Chen Chu, "Give me some tickets!"

The small stove for employees has been upgraded to a canteen for employees, but it is not open to the public, and only accepts tickets from the group.

It seems that Cai Wei just wanted to try the food in the cafeteria, but he couldn't buy the food because he didn't have a ticket.

Chen Chu didn't have the habit of carrying money in the village, so he couldn't help looking at Yunong.

Yunong grumbled, and reluctantly opened her purse, first fumbled out two small pink coins of 'Dang Wu' and handed them over.

Cai Wei took a look at the face value, frowned and said, "Not enough, take some more!"

"Where is it not enough? Cui Yuan and I have a meal in the cafeteria and two small pink coins are enough." Yu Nong muttered and touched a piece of 'Dang Ten' small pink coins.

Seeing her stingy appearance, Cai Wei finally lost her patience, and cursed: "Damn girl! Do you have a conscience? When you left Caiwei Pavilion, I gave you clothes and a golden hairpin. Now you are so stingy for a meal." !"

"."

Yunong was blamed for being scolded, so she grinned apologetically, then handed out her purse pretendingly, "How much does the third lady need, take it yourself."

Cai Wei was not polite to her, she dodged her purse, and took out several invoices in a row.

Yunong gritted her teeth in distress, and said in a low voice, "That's enough, enough for San Niangzi, it's really enough for you to eat."

"Well, that's enough!" Cai Wei reached out and fumbled in Yunong's purse, and grabbed a few large 'Dangbai' white tiger coins, and then turned around and walked towards the cafeteria contentedly.

Yunong took her purse, and it fell face down, and there was nothing left.
I couldn't help but looked at Chen Chu with a pitiful face, almost crying, "My lord, my white tiger coin."

Thirty of the twelfth lunar month, New Year's Eve.

The festive atmosphere in Luliuwei finally reached its climax.

As soon as it got dark, the stage set up on the open space of Cai's house became lively.

"Yimao New Year's Gala"

Now, most of the young and middle-aged people can recognize the characters on the banner after studying in literacy classes.

No one noticed anything unusual, only Cai Wei squinted her eyes and smiled. This article does not use the upcoming Daqi's "Fuchang Eight Years" year name, but uses the chronology of the heavenly stems and earthly branches, which is a bit interesting.
The so-called gala, focuses on the 'gala'.

Tonight's show was very casual, and the Luliuxu defense team performed a few random shows in small groups.

On the contrary, the amateurish and embarrassing way of performing made the black-and-white villagers in the audience laugh.

Especially the "Rocket Boys 101" sung by Yao Meili, Wu Kui, Peng Er, and Da Lang made the audience burst into laughter.

Even Chen Chu and Yunong came to the stage and collaborated on an proud little song called "Swordsman". Aoao screamed.

The grand finale of the gala was Liu Lingtong's new short play "Chicken Crows at Midnight" led by actors.

The former Zhoujiazhuang villagers who recently joined the group saw the big villain 'Zhou Papi' appearing in the play, and couldn't help but look at each other and smile knowingly.

Zhou Zongfa, who was lying on the rickshaw and was pulled over by Zhou Zulin and other brothers to watch the show, could not help but wipe away his tears quietly after watching for a while.

"Brother Fa, why are you crying? My boss broke Zhou Wu's legs to avenge you." Zhou Zulin comforted.

In the first row under the stage, Zhou Zhiruo sat in a circle with Hutou, Da Ya, Wu Junru and other girls, sharing the snacks that Hutou brought from home. Although Zhou's girl had a timid expression, there was a smile on the corners of her brows and eyes .

It seems that their little sisters get along pretty well.

Zhou Zongfa stared at his daughter in silence for a long time, then murmured suddenly: "Zu Lin, how can I repay this Zhuangzi in the future."

At the end of the party, as usual, the chorus of students from Lanxiang Academy sang "Waves on a Big River".

"A great river with wide waves"

After the childish voices sang in unison, someone in the audience immediately hummed along.

Then, the sound got louder and louder.

The rough male voice, the high-pitched female voice, and the immature child's voice gradually gathered into one singing voice.

Even people like Zhou Zongfa and Zhou Zulin who don't know the song, also mixed in and followed the harmony.

No one was shy, no one was embarrassed.

The powerful force gathered by the singing of hundreds of people made the people in it feel extra secure.

The blood is tense.

Cai Huamei, who had goosebumps all over her body, glanced back and forth, and suddenly understood something.

Fuchang Seven Years New Year's Eve.

On a pitch-dark land, Luliuxu was brightly lit, and the sound of songs shook the whole field.

Four thousand miles north of Luliuwei, the Huanglong Mansion of the Kingdom of Jin, because the crown prince died suddenly, Wan Yanquan, the Emperor of Jin, became angry from grief, and killed three hundred palace officials and female officials in one day and night.

The whole city fell silent.

In the Five Kingdoms City, an old man with gray beard took a sip of strong wine and silently looked at the sky.

Luliuxu went seven hundred miles north.

In the Daqing Hall in Tokyo City, Emperor Liu Yu of Daqi took advantage of the New Year’s Eve to host a banquet for his ministers. In the hall, the graceful singer danced lightly. Until midnight, the emperor and ministers were drinking and drinking, and the face was hot, and it was a scene of unrestrained waves.

It seems that he also knows that Da Qi is in trouble at home and abroad, so he can seize this last good time and enjoy himself in time.

Luliuxu travels south for thousands of miles.

At the Li main gate of Lin’an, Chai Chong, Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, stands on the city gate, overlooking the people in the city to celebrate the New Year, but he feels a little melancholy in his heart. There is no heir behind him, who will entrust this great country
Small villages, passes, capitals, palaces.
Kyushu is dotted with dots, like a chess game.

Farmer, official, squire, emperor.
They are all within the chess game, pulling one to mobilize the whole body.

It is in this fragility and tranquility that the year of Yimao has come.
　I saw that some book friends reported that these chapters were too bland, and I also found out that because the writing is overdone and routine every day, the writing lacks interest.

　　Today may be an update, I will go over the detailed outline again, try to compress the excessive chapters as much as possible, and enter the next climax as soon as possible.
