Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 11155

"I don't care about others, but I will take care of my own parents, nephews, brothers and sisters-in-law as I please."

"No one can do anything about it. If anyone is jealous, just get out of the pasture. The fact that I can take refuge in the pasture is because of the honor of my parents, brother and sister-in-law from my mother's family!"

Yang Ruoqing came over and patted Xiaoduo on the back: "Okay, no one will dare to say that to your face. Don't get excited. You guys eat first. I'll go to the tent to check on everyone."

"Sister, eat the pork rib noodles first and then come over to take a look." Xiaoduo said from behind.

Yang Ruoqing waved her hand: "Your brother-in-law and I came here after eating at home."

"Sister, didn't you say there was water in the village? Why are your shoes and trouser legs dry?"

"We came here by boat. Jinling came from Huguang County to rescue us and brought more than ten boats."

"Really? That would be great."

Sun and Xiaohua spoke almost in unison. The mother and daughter looked at each other, and Xiaohua said, "Mom, you speak first."

Sun nodded, and then said to Yang Ruoqing, "Qing'er, can I take a boat back home later so I can get two pairs of shoes and socks for Jun'er?"

Xiaohua added, "Because of the rain, many places on the grassland are wet, and there are even puddles in some places."

"We told him not to tread water, but he just wouldn't listen. As soon as the adults turned their backs, he would immediately tread water. Two pairs of shoes and socks were soaked."

Yang Ruoqing said, "Of course you can. I'll go to the tent first to see what to bring. Mom and Hua'er will decide now. When we're done, we can go back and get it directly. Or I can get it for you and send it over."

"No, no, I'll go back by myself. I also want to see how the flooding situation is at home," said Sun.

Yang Ruoqing could understand Sun's feelings, but she was afraid that when she returned, she would find that her home no longer looked like home and would burst into tears.

Before, when the steely man Yang Huazhong saw his house flooded and lifeless, with some of the children's toys that had not yet been put away scattered and floating on the water in the yard, Yang Huazhong pried open the crack in the door with tears in his eyes.

"Mom, you have to be prepared. I'm afraid you'll cry when you see the water entering the house."

Sun laughed dryly, "That's impossible. I know we need to get water in. Otherwise, we can't move the pasture here, right?"

Yang Ruoqing smiled and nodded: "Okay, this is what you said yourself, mom, if you cry later, I will laugh at you."

Over there at the tent.

Yang Ruoqing took a look and saw tents of all sizes standing there in the distance. It made her feel like she was on the prairie, and those tents were the homes of the herdsmen.

They brought their cattle, sheep, hunting dogs, their entire families, and all the necessities of life, as they chased after water and grass for shelter.

Although they have no fixed place to live and are often on the move, as long as the family is together and all their belongings are with them, they can live well anywhere.

The tents were pitched on the grass, the men were busy "building the house", the women were setting up stoves in the open air, making fires and cooking, the children were playing and chasing around, the domestic dogs were jumping around, and the domestic cats were lying far away and watching the playful scenes quietly, this is the fireworks of the world. Yang Ruoqing walked along and met many villagers in groups. It was breakfast time, the men and women divided the work and cooperated, and the smoke from various small open-air stoves was curling.

Passing by the gathering of women, all I could hear were all kinds of household and trivial matters. Obviously, this collective life brought these women together, which was quite novel, but bumps and bruises were inevitable.

It is true that wherever there are people, there is the martial arts world. Where there are women, the martial arts world is even stronger.

When the women saw Yang Ruoqing, they greeted her from afar. Some even came over to ask if she came from the direction of the village. After getting a definite answer, they surrounded Yang Ruoqing and rushed to ask about the flooding situation in their own houses.

When Yang Ruoqing told them about the situation in the village and the scenes she saw when passing by the courtyards of each house, most of the women who had been chattering before now burst into tears, and their expressions became lonely and gloomy.

"I really want to go home. When I think about my home being ruined by water, I feel so sad."

"It's true for everyone. The harvests in the past two years were pretty good. After paying taxes, the rice and wheat left at home were enough to feed the whole family."

"I can sell the extra rapeseed oil and earn some cash to buy some firewood, rice, oil and salt to supplement my family's income. This year I'm going to suffer..."

  The women became more and more sad. They had originally planned to make noodles to eat in the morning, but now they didn't have the courage to do so. They decided to change to pickled vegetable and noodle dumpling soup. The adults and children could just have a bite. The food had to be saved for the lean period later. This year's lean period would last three or four months longer than in previous years. Alas!

Yang Ruoqing continued to move forward, passing by a group of men.

But what he saw was a group of young and old men surrounding Luo Fengtang. Luo Fengtang came to the grassland today to mobilize the transportation team to participate in the post-disaster reconstruction. In addition, on behalf of Yang Huazhong, he found several village elders and talked about the staffing arrangements and wage settlement for drainage.

The village pays half and the Luo family pays half.

Of course, several village elders had no objection to this. The eldest village elder cupped his hands towards Luo Fengtang and said, "Fengtang, you are a big shot, the pride of our Changping Village. You have become successful, but you still remember to take care of our fellow villagers."

"As for this wave of post-disaster reconstruction, we will do whatever you say. We, old men, will follow your ideas!"

Then, several village elders took out the large gong that was used in the village during festivals and began to strike it in each tent, attracting everyone to the open space in front of the grassland.

We will start recruiting able-bodied men soon. Women, the elderly and children are not allowed to participate. We will only recruit able-bodied men to do manual labor. The village will provide them with food and wages.

But people are needed to cook for these workers, so women are recruited from the herb-collecting team.

Recruit five women. If the herb-picking team is not fully recruited, recruit from other women in the village. In any case, the herb-picking team will be given priority.

A herb-collecting team and a transport team, both are Yang Ruoqing's subordinates.

As soon as this news was released, the villagers felt all kinds of emotions when they heard it.

Some were happy, some were worried. Some were worried because they could obviously cook and earn money, but because they had not joined the herb-picking team before and did not have a close relationship with Yang Ruoqing, they became outsiders at this time and the people in the herb-picking team got priority.

But what can be done?

This world itself is a world constructed by human relationships. It was not easy for Yang Ruoqing to put together a herb-picking team, and it was difficult without the support of more than a dozen sisters-in-law, aunts, and brothers and sisters.

Now that there is an opportunity to make money, Yang Ruoqing will definitely give priority to her own people.
