Chapter 34

"This thing is Wang Laoer!"

"I can't blame him for his leg injury! You have to criticize him!"

Beside the ditch, several commune members were aggrieved. A group of people were so tired that they were sweating all over before they pulled the big stone Wang Laoer made out of the ditch.

However, Wang Laoer's leg injury is still not healed, so he didn't go to work today.

The big guys will inevitably say a few words about him, and the grumpy ones will scold him.

From Xiaoshantun to Yuejin River, there are several miles of canals, and other places are full of mud and gravel, which are easier to clean up, but Wang Laoer made this stone the most troublesome.

The seventh uncle of Ji Yuanhai also said to the crowd: "When I go back today, I will criticize Wang Laoer with a loudspeaker! What are you doing!"

He also said: "The canals are almost open. I saw that there are puddles in some places, and there are some fish in them."

"Let's catch the fish and distribute them collectively."

The members brought iron basins, buckets, etc., and the secretary took the lead, leading the members to catch fish for a long time, and caught eight buckets and ten basins full of fish, most of which were loach, eel, crucian carp, and some white striped fish.

I caught five or six silver carp, carp, and catfish each, and two black fish, none of which were too big.

After work was over in the afternoon, everyone brought these fish back to the production team headquarters, and all the members of the production team, men, women and children, were overjoyed.

There are fish to eat!

The seventh uncle announced: "Every family, every household, those who have a lot of work points and are active in labor, go home first and get a pot."

"People compete to be the first in work, and also in the division of fish. Does everyone have any opinions?"

Everyone has no opinion.

Usually the most active members of the production team came forward with washbasins in their hands, proudly selecting larger fish.

For example, Grandpa Ji Yuanhai chose a carp, and Mr. Wang also chose a carp...

Ji Yuanhai looked at this scene and felt the simplest distribution method in the production brigade. Those who can work hard will get more, and those who can work hard will be honored. He felt a little emotional in his heart.

This human heart is indeed more even and just than decades later... It is no wonder that both grandfather and father regard hard work and being down-to-earth as their duty, even "serious".

The only problem is that there are too few resources.

Under the premise of poverty that is difficult to solve with food, drink and clothing, many things are not wrong, but they are also wrong.

After the fish were distributed, each family went home one after another, and the voice of the seventh uncle rang out on the loudspeaker.

"Attention, members, attention, members!"

"Our production team criticized two people today, Wang Youcai and Wang Youde... Before the heavy rain, these two people got a stone and put it next to the ditch of our production team."

"It rained heavily two days ago. This stone blocked the canal of our production team and blocked the flow of water. It almost flooded the collective crops and destroyed the collective property! The situation is very bad, ah, very bad. It is definitely a big mistake. !”

"Wang Youcai, Wang Youde, you two brothers come to the brigade headquarters now, write inspections, make self-criticisms, and accept criticism and education!"

Wang Lao Er and Wang Lao Er heard the trumpet and headed to the team headquarters dejectedly.

Accountant Wang Laosan felt ashamed about this, and slipped home before they arrived without meeting them.

When Ji Yuanhai's family returned home, his grandfather happily carried about a pound of carp and talked about the benefits of hard work.

Ji Yuanhai nodded, seemingly in praise.But I just felt in my heart that although I understood these concepts, it was impossible to continue to follow them.

A thought gradually emerged - maybe, I should find a way to separate the family as soon as possible.

At that time, elders would no longer control what he and Lu Heling wanted to eat or do; small things such as how much oil, salt and seasoning should be used in cooking, big things such as Lu Heling learning to read or Ji Yuanhai's idea of ​​making money, would no longer matter. Someone is in charge.

Because the families live on their own, they are really in charge of their own affairs.

After this thought came up, Ji Yuanhai became more determined - regardless of whether he would go to the city or not in the future, in the rest of his life in the countryside, he could not continue to be controlled to the point where his words and deeds depended on the looks of his elders.

With more than 300 yuan in hand, how can I continue to be content with working collectively every day?

At this time, grandma came back from the door with a relieved expression.

"Grandma Wheat King is gone."

It turned out that the big butterfly stayed on the door frame of Ji Yuan Hai's house without moving for a whole day and night, and finally flew away.

Ji Yuanshan couldn't help but ask: "Grandma, is the Grandma Maiwang you're talking about the big bastard?"

Grandma suddenly stared: "What are you talking about? That's Grandma Mai Wang!"

Ji Yuanshan really didn’t understand, so grandma explained.

Ji Yuanhai also understood: It turns out that Grandma Maiwang is a simple belief that the older generation of farmers believed in long before the founding of the People's Republic of China. They believe that the wheat fields have spirits, called Grandma Maiwang, and can bless them with good harvests and peace.

Same as this, there is also the Lord of Insects, who protects them from pests.

The most important thing is that large areas of locusts in drought years do not damage crops.

This kind of simple belief has few ceremonies, and there are not even many small temples, which is far inferior to that of the Land City God.

Probably because of the concept of animism, such rare species as the black-winged butterfly in Phnom Penh are often associated by the older generation with Granny Maiwang and Lord Chong, and their words are respectful, and they never dare to No offence.

According to grandma, when she was young, she also served "Grandma Maiwang" once.

The butterfly was bigger than this one, and it just sat on the washbasin of her house, and it stayed there for a whole month without flying away.

That month, her family didn't even use a washbasin.

Ji Yuanshan was shocked: "One month? Isn't Grandma Maiwang hungry?"

"Of course she won't be hungry. Besides, I poured water for her, crushed the pancakes and put them there."

said grandma.

Ji Yuanhai and Lu Heling wanted to laugh a little when they heard this.

It turned out that I had been feeding butterflies for a month... which is quite rare.

Ji Yuanshan couldn't help but said: "Then it is actually hungry and needs to eat, right?"

Grandma's face looked a little ugly: "Go, go, what do you know...don't offend Grandma Mai Wang!"

Ji Yuanshan asked again: "Grandma, if you don't wash your face for a month, is it dirty?"

With a sullen face, grandma picked up the rolling pin from the wall and tiptoed to hit him.

Ji Yuanshan was immediately frightened and ran away.

Ji Yuanhai and Lu Heling suppressed their laughter and returned to the Westinghouse.

After dinner, rest in each house.

Ji Yuanhai and Lu Heling had sex, panting slightly, hugging each other, the leisure time is also very beautiful.

Suddenly thinking of that idea, Ji Yuanhai said, "He Ling, I have something to discuss with you."

Lu Heling snorted softly, "What's the matter?"

When Ji Yuanhai said that he intends to separate the family, Lu Heling was full of surprise: "Really?"

Ji Yuanhai nodded.

"Then I absolutely agree with you!" Lu Heling said while lying in his arms.

Of course Ji Yuanhai could understand her. If it wasn't for the sake of accommodating the opinions of his elders, Lu Heling would prefer to study quietly instead of showing the qualities of a hardworking and capable rural woman every day.

After all, she is not that kind of person at heart. If she could stop pretending and live with Ji Yuan Hai naturally and naturally, she would of course be happier.
