Chapter 88 Harvest
Zhao Meili couldn't tell from her smiling face whether she heard her words, and continued to fan the flames: "The man was injured by the Lu family, so he has to be taken care of by the Lu family. Anyway, if you make such a fuss, in the future The Lu family will definitely not dare to bully Eldest Sister, don’t you think?”

"When the time comes, we'll all give the Lu family a blow, so that the Lu family will not dare to be presumptuous in the future."

"Besides, she also has a daughter. This divorced child is the most pitiful, don't you think?"

Jia Haohao suspects that the Lu family is afraid now, and they want to reconcile with Sister Zhen.

Or maybe the old house didn't want the eldest daughter to divorce because they felt that their daughter's reputation was not good after divorce.

But because of Sister Zhen's mother and daughter, I got a large amount of gold coins and returned them to the system, so I can't worry about my little life being over by accident.

Based on this, as long as Sister Zhen's mother and daughter don't commit suicide, I will help if I can.

"What you said is also very reasonable." Jiahao said with a look of no opinion: "But if I tell Brother Yu, will he think that I can't tolerate their orphans and widows, what should I do if he thinks I'm stingy?"

Li Weihong was amused in her heart. She thought she knew Jia Haohao well, and she felt that she was not a stingy person. Even the man's cousins ​​were willing to be her own brothers and sisters, so why would she despise the elder sister?
"That's right!" Li Weihong also helped Jia to speak up: "You haven't married into the Zhen family yet, so don't offend sister-in-law first, that's enough for you to drink a pot."

When Zhao Meili heard this, she was too embarrassed to say anything more, so she could only forcefully smile.

The main reason is that she hasn't figured out the relationship between Jia Haohao and Team Wei, so she doesn't dare to offend her now, so she can only say embarrassingly: "Yes, I am also worried that you will be bullied when you marry."

Jia Hao smiled: "Don't talk about me, you are going to get married in a few days, are you ready?"

After speaking, he took out one yuan from his pocket and handed it to her, and said with a smile: "Congratulations, we are all on our own, so we don't need to wrap it in red paper."

Originally, she was still thinking that she and she could be regarded as sisters-in-law in the future, and she couldn't be the same as when Chen Xiaohua got married, and she only gave him one yuan for Xiqian, so she had to add some fabrics anyway.

But now that I met her and Lou Jie, I felt that her heart was not righteous, and I didn't bother to bother when I heard her sowing words.

I thought wrong before, the two brothers of the Zhen family get along better than strangers, and the older sister Zhen was forced to marry, and Erniu Zhen's eyes are not healed because of improper treatment, can Zhen Youqin not hate it ?

It is good for the two brothers not to be enemies, why should I think about building a good relationship?
Li Weihong also took out a dollar and handed it to Zhao Meili, and said a few nice words with a smile.

Then he handed Jia Haohao another one dollar, with a slightly teasing meaning: "Although you still have a while to get married, I'd better give you the gift money first? Don't forget to invite me when the time comes." Go rub it."

She and Cui Xiucheng were grateful for Zhen Youqin's life-saving grace in the beginning, and they had already given cotton in private, which was considered a great gift.

However, on the bright side, a bowl of water must be leveled, lest everyone lose face and affection.

Speaking of which, when she came to the countryside, she was holding her breath, but now after a few months of hard life, she really lost her impetuosity and became calm.

Zhao Meili thought they were stingy at first, but she didn't know that their family had a lot of tickets and no shortage of money when they lived together, so who knew that she would just give her one yuan, and she still regarded them as friends when she was at a loss.

But seeing that Li Weihong only gave Jia Hao Hao a dollar, he felt balanced, and talked about the new house his mother-in-law prepared for him with a little show off...

Jia Haohao took her words as a lullaby. He thought she was smart when he saw her talking and laughing, but now it seems that she is stupid.

She flaunted her mother-in-law's attention everywhere before she got through the door. If there were conflicts between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the future, everyone would think that she was wrong as a daughter-in-law.

...

The next morning, Jia Haohao and Li Weihong made breakfast together.

Li Weihong didn't know how to cook when he came here, but his human potential is still unlimited. This force has also been forced out, and now he can cook, steaming steamed buns, cooking porridge with wild vegetables, or making pancakes.

Jia Haohao was still the same, although he could talk about cooking well, but he couldn't do it, so he lit the fire behind the stove with a wink.

The meals of the educated youths are all put together, and it is impossible to eat enough now. It is not bad to be seventy percent full, and it is considered breakfast if you cook a large pot of sweet potato and sorghum porridge.

Now the three male educated youths and the three female educated youths have also gone through several months of running-in, and they get along pretty well, and everyone can live with face.

Lou Jie wolfed down two bowls of porridge, put down the bowl and wiped his mouth, and said, "The food is distributed today. The accountant asked me to help early, so I will leave first."

Xiao Jianjun was also very curious, and asked Cui Xiucheng: "Can we get back the food we distribute now? I heard that you distributed more than [-] yuan last year?"

Cui Xiucheng didn't hide it either: "It's based on work points. If there are fewer work points, there won't be any. Unless you don't want food, they will be willing to exchange it with you."

However, everyone knows that no fool is willing to exchange food for money.

Everyone has experienced the great famine, and we all know that at some point, money may not necessarily buy food.

Moreover, you need food stamps to buy food, and the price may be expensive. In the countryside, as long as you have food, you can be safe. Anyway, other things at home don’t matter.

Firewood, rice, oil, salt, rural people do not lack firewood, rice and grain are enough, if there is no spare money, other expenses can be saved as much as possible.

If you can't save it, you can rely on the chicken butt bank at home, save eggs and go to the supply and marketing cooperative to exchange money, and you can live on.

Xiao Jianjun couldn't help sighing after hearing this: "Oh, the five of us have only been here for a few months, and we have paid a lot of food. I'm afraid there won't be enough food this year. What should we do?"

"It's okay." After all, Cui Xiucheng came a year earlier than him and knew better: "There are a few families in the village who have enough labor force, and they get a lot of food every year. You can use money to exchange it privately."

Li Weihong looked at him in surprise: "Well, this doesn't mean that you can't do it in private..."

"It's just that people in the village lend a hand to help, so how can it be considered that?" Jiahao hurriedly gave her a hand, and said angrily, "Then you have more food, and you can still watch me starve to death?"

Li Weihong also came back to his senses: "No wonder, several sisters-in-law asked me in private if I have enough food?"

Originally, she thought that the country people cared about her honestly, and she was secretly proud that she had a good relationship with everyone.

The co-authors all know that they have money in their pockets and want to exchange food for money.

Thinking about it this way, she understood. After all, if it was changed in the village, no one would talk too much, but if it was really sold on the black market, it would be a risk.

After everyone finished breakfast, Jia washed the dishes diligently.

Now there is no oil or water. I put two spoonfuls of water in the pot earlier, and it was already warmed by the remaining heat of the stove. I quickly washed the dishes and chopsticks before going out with everyone.

Zhao Meili saw that Jia Haohao was walking while taking clam oil out of his pocket to intervene, so she couldn't help saying: "Okay, you're not good at pie, let's live a life of hardship and simplicity!"

Jiahao almost couldn't help but turn his face.

This person is really embarrassing. I'm not afraid of her, but I think it's boring to argue with her, but why should she talk to her?

Why did I brazenly call brother-in-law when I caught Wei Dui, because I was afraid that my younger brother would be picked up by others to gossip, and I wanted to find a tiger to pull the banner.

"Really?" Jiahao smiled instead of anger: "Compared with you, I am really far behind. You see, you got married, and you have three turns and one sound. How many people in the village can be like you?"

Zhao Meili was blocked by her words, her face flushed, and she stepped forward to talk to Xiao Jianjun.

Li Weihong secretly gave her a thumbs up, and Jiahao took the opportunity to stuff the shells to her: "I bought several clam oils yesterday, this is for you to intervene."

She has never seen such a lovely skin care product before. The white shells have different patterns, and the face oil is packed in clam shells, like frozen lard.

It's a dime apiece, and using this on her face and hands without chapping is a must for her.

Li Weihong didn't refuse either: "Next time I'll buy some too."

Ask her again: "Have you been going to town recently? We will go together then."

Now that the weather is getting colder, she has long been greedy for the chicken, duck and fish in the state-run restaurant, and she is going to quietly bring some back for the tooth-making festival. According to the weather, she can keep it for a few days.

Jia Haohao also wanted someone to talk to him on the road: "Maybe Hou'er has to go to the hospital, so let's go together then?"

Xiao Jianjun in front of him complained secretly.

When he first came, he really liked a girl like Zhao Meili who loved to smile, but now that she was getting married soon, and she was talking and laughing with him, he was a little scared.

He has been in the country for a few months, and he also understands the customs here. A married woman has to take care of her family, and she can't talk and laugh with other men. This is called unruly.

Moreover, after getting along with Zhao Meili for a long time and becoming familiar with her, I no longer feel that she is the lover of my dreams. When I saw the young man walking in front of me, I thought of a good way to get out: "Brother Yong, I was just looking for someone Say something!"

I ran forward and walked forward with the young man shoulder to shoulder.

When a few of them came to the field, they saw many people gathered together to talk.

They also leaned over to take a look, and there were two somewhat rough writing desks and some benches in the field.

Older men were sitting on stools smoking pipes, talking about crops and food, and their dark faces, which were blown by the north wind and rain, showed a few wrinkles when they laughed.

The seven aunts and eight aunts chatted non-stop around the writing desk, but they turned a deaf ear to the record, and calmly checked the work points at the end, made a few calculations from time to time, and then wrote them down with steel notes before saying: "Zhen Ergou's family A total of 713 work points."

A young man next to him couldn't help but smiled and replied: "Yes!"

There are also many older girls and younger daughters-in-law who are chatting together to discuss their own work points this year and how much food they can get.

As usual, the captain said a few encouraging words, then waved his hand and started to distribute the food.

Behind the yard are the warehouses and offices of the brigade. Jia Haohao saw Zhen Youqin and his group of twenty or thirty young men follow the brigade leader to carry out bags of grain.

Barley, wheat, sweet potatoes, and all kinds of beans are divided into piles.

Cui Xiucheng also called Xiao Jianjun to come forward to help. Fortunately, the population of this village is not large, only about [-] households. Soon, someone was carrying grain and putting it on the ox cart, mule cart, or their own wheelbarrow. It takes several people to fight together, and it takes several trips to get them all back home.

Of course, at this time, no one will be disgusted by a few more trips, and everyone's smiling faces are blooming.

Lou Jie likes to be in the limelight. When distributing food, he took the ledger book and shouted the name of each family.

Jia Haohao and the outsiders must be in the back. Seeing Zhen Xiaoer coming, she beckoned him to come over and asked in a low voice, "Why didn't you see Xiao Min and the others?"

Zhen Xiaoer couldn't help laughing: "How can they have these points? Let's see how much is left in the team and give them some points."

"They don't get much wheat and sorghum, but they can still leave a few bags of sweet potatoes."

Jiahao nodded silently, now is not the time to be brave, the more low-key, the better for them.

Zhen Xiaoer really didn't want her sister-in-law to help others.

After all, there are few people earning work points in their family, but there are many people eating and drinking. Seeing that the eldest sister and her daughter are coming back, the rations are even more tense.

He was worried that his family would not be able to survive without buying grain this year. Fortunately, his elder brother had a good reputation in the village and his sister-in-law had money, so he could still buy grain.

Now that the autumn harvest is over, there is less work in the field, and the young and old wives are free to take their children back to their natal homes.

Zhen Xiaoer played with the tops for a while with the children in the village, rolled the hoop once, and heard a lot of news.

In fact, as she expected, the five educated youths who came this year didn't get much work points because they spent their food rations, so what they got now is really pitifully small.

Zhao Meili received 68 catties of wheat, a load of sweet potatoes and some odds and ends of beans.

Jia Haohao is about the same as her, but Li Weihong and Xiao Jianjun are a little bit more.
