After cooking, let Zhang Xingguo eat first, and he took a big bowl of noodles, brown sugar bought from the city building, and cloth to Liu Changhe's house.
"Tai Nai, try the cold noodles at noon today. And the brown sugar I brought back from the city. This cloth will make you new clothes, but I don't know how to do it. Let my aunt help."
"My grandma just didn't eat lunch, this should be easy to say."
The old lady smiled and picked up the chopsticks and took a bite, "It's delicious, Hongmei, did you put salt and alkaline noodles in the noodles?"
"Tai Nai's mouth is really good."
"That is, you haven't eaten yet, have you? Go and eat."
"By the way, Tai Nai, I also bought several big iron pots?"
"Yes. Why do you want to buy an iron pot?"
"It's just that it's not easy to go to the city. If you don't pay attention, you will buy too much. If you need it at home, you can go to me to get it."
"Medium. Go eat and let your aunt make clothes for me."
When Zhang Hongmei returned home, Zhang Xingguo hadn't eaten yet, and was waiting for her.
"Uncle Zhang, why haven't you eaten yet? You said you don't have to wait for me."
"It's not good to eat alone."
After eating, Zhang Hongmei boiled the brown sugar water. "Uncle Zhang, I've prepared the water, and I'll pick it up later."
"Middle, are you going to herd sheep this afternoon?"
"Yeah, the sheep didn't eat much after walking in the morning. It's okay anyway."
"Okay, let's go."
In the afternoon, Zhang Hongmei picked a lot of wild vegetables with a frame on her back. In the evening, the two of them mixed wild vegetables with cold rice and water.
A week passed in a flash, and now Zhang Xingguo's house is up, and even the yard is fenced off. In the evening, Zhang Xingguo proposed to move there tomorrow, but Zhang Hongmei didn't persuade him to stay, but he had to come over for every meal.
This time Zhang Xingguo didn't bring any food at all. What he ate now was Zhang Hongmei's. Neither of them cared about everything, so they didn't care.
Zhang Shouyi came over just as Zhang Hongmei finished picking water from the two water tanks in the yard on Sunday morning.
This time, all I brought over were food, as well as oil, salt, sauce and vinegar. It's just that I didn't bring the iron pot, because I knew that Zhang Hongmei had bought several mouthfuls.
The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and people are getting more and more irritable. The sorghum has grown tall, but it looks withered and yellow.
The peanuts in the space have been harvested four times, about 10,000 catties, soybeans also have 10,000 catties, and more corn cobs, but none of them have been threshed. Taking these things out is just a drop in the bucket. Zhang Hongmei has been planting and harvesting in space crazily these days, all of which are corn, so don't pay attention to them.
Having confirmed that all three sheep had cubs, Zhang Hongmei joyfully went to give money to the second fool. This was the happiest thing she had done during this time.
Liu Erya also came here often, and the two went to the water's edge in the mountains again. The water level here obviously dropped very little.
Now the well in the village can still supply water, but the well rope has been connected for more than ten meters. Zhang Hongmei felt that the water source here should be told to the village, so she went to Liu Changhe's house when she came back.
"Tai Nai, I went to the mountain and found a water pool. Sister Erya and I went there today to see that the water level didn't drop much."
"I also know that pool. It's too dangerous not to fetch water unless it is absolutely necessary. But we have to ask the carpenter in our village to prepare a wooden barrel with a lid."
Zhang Hongmei feels that ginger is still old and hot, and the wisdom of the old man should not be underestimated.
"Also, you will rarely go into the mountains in the future, you two girls are really brave."
"It's too milky. The sweet potatoes planted in the mountains grow much better than those grown in the field. It is estimated that the output will be very good."
"This is the best way. The sorghum in the field will also produce grain, and we will definitely survive this year."
Zhang Hongmei absolutely believed what the old lady said, and the restlessness in her heart subsided.
Days have to go on as usual, Monday is the end of the month to go to school for exams.
I went to the county government on Tuesday. I haven't collected living expenses for more than half a year, so I can't let people think that I don't need it.
But when I arrived in the county, I didn't receive the money, and the county didn't have any money to give.
If you have no money, you have no money. Before Zhang Hongmei said anything, a young female officer said, "Why don't you look like a member of the military? Shouldn't you be self-sacrificing? It's a difficult time, how can you still be with troublesome people?" Like, come here to cause trouble for the country?"
Zhang Hongmei wanted to leave at first, but when she heard her words, she immediately became furious.
"This aunt,What happened to the military? Should I sacrifice myself for you? Can I give you the money? My parents sacrificed to defend the country and protect the people, shouldn't the country raise me as an adult? "
The female officer was silent for a long time after being pushed by Zhang Hongmei. In fact, she was really jealous of Zhang Hongmei. On the surface, I have a good job, but I have to hand over my monthly salary in full. My mother only gives me two yuan a month, so seeing that Zhang Hongmei, a village girl, can receive ten yuan a month, I feel unbalanced immediately. .
In fact, the county will not have this money? It's just that she doesn't want to deal with Zhang Hongmei.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Zhang Hongmei was still angry, so she left the accounting room and went to the county magistrate's office.
There was a meeting inside, and Zhang Hongmei pushed the door open regardless. When I entered the room, I burst into tears, "Leader, let me make the decision. As an orphan girl, I came to collect living expenses and said that I was causing trouble for the country. I really didn't dare. It's just that this year's drought, I really can't survive. , I can understand that the county does not have my dozens of dollars, but how can you say that I am a troublemaker?"
Everyone in the meeting felt sympathetic to Zhang Hongmei's crying. Fortunately, she was wearing old clothes today. Otherwise, with Zhang Hongmei's ruddy face and unpatched clothes, no one would believe her when she said she couldn't survive.
The female officer also came after her at this time, she didn't expect the village girl to dare to break into the county magistrate's office directly. Hearing her words, his head buzzed and his face turned pale.
The county magistrate still remembered Zhang Hongmei. He was originally a soldier and an upright person. He was furious after hearing Zhang Hongmei's words. This soldier was born and died, how could his family be treated like this?
"Girl, don't cry, don't worry, the country won't make you unable to survive, even if it's difficult, you still have living expenses. Lao Li, you can pay her living expenses. As for Xiao Li, go home and reflect, when will you know?" Write another review for your own mistakes, and if you pass it, you will come back to work.¡±
Officer Xiao Li looked at the county magistrate falteringly begging for mercy.
But it was useless this time, she stepped into the county magistrate's minefield.
"Thanks to the county magistrate, I will just receive one month's living allowance. When the country is in trouble, everyone is responsible. Although I am too young to contribute to the country, I will try to cause as little trouble to the country as possible." (Remember Website URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
