Hard times have room

Chapter 405

As soon as she got home, Pauline first picked the wild vegetables she had dug up, and the cooking would be quick. The rest of the time, she just sat fidgeting in the main room alone.

In the end, I couldn't help it anymore, and ran directly to the bamboo rat's nest at the back of the house to see these chubby guys, feed them, and find something to do for myself, as if it wasn't that hard anymore.

Here, Baolin took the white tender bamboo shoots that had been peeled in the space and fed them to the bamboo rats. On the other side, Wang Jiandang and Su Hongying were worried and brought back the guy they had taken out to work.

Recently, the birds around the village have been hunted and killed, and the mice have also achieved little success. The places where there may be mouse nests have basically been rummaged, even the front and back of the courtyard of each household. No exception.

But one wave has not settled down, and now there are new instructions on it. The flies and mosquitoes that have just come out have successfully ascended to the top, and they have become the pests that everyone is calling for now.

Yesterday was Paulin's return. They were so happy that they forgot about the time to hand in the ration of pests. If this was not recorded again, they were not active in pest control, and a work point was deducted.

Of course, even if I remember, I don't know where to go to gather pests, so sad!
The sparrows don’t dare to think about eliminating the harm. There are only so many left in the village and outside the village, and they are hard to catch. The mice are also very fine, so the flies and mosquitoes are relatively easy to get. The amount is relatively large. The couple has worked hard for several days to piece together everything, but they can't even get half of the amount together. It's difficult!
As soon as there was movement outside the yard, Pauline, who was always paying attention, stood up suddenly and went out to greet her.

"Mom and Dad, you're back." After speaking, people also walked in front of Su Hongying and Wang Jiandang, and Paulin took the sickle in Su Hongying's hand very easily.

"Oh, no need." Su Hongying said so, but she burst into a smile in an instant, and she did not refuse. She obediently handed over the sickle in her hand to Pauline's hand. This is the girl's distress for her mother. , It's too late to be happy!

Wang Jiandang looked at the mother and daughter who were talking and laughing as they walked home together, and reluctantly put the hoe on his shoulders down, didn't say anything, just followed silently.

As soon as she stepped over the threshold of the main room, Pauline bent down and put the sickle in her hand to the right corner at will, and went to pour the water.

When the bamboo cup that had entered her space was placed in front of Su Hongying and Wang Jiandang, Paulin also sat down, opposite Su Hongying.

"Mom and dad, is the village still fighting evil now?" As soon as she sat down, Pauline couldn't help but open her mouth. This matter had been held back in her heart for a long time. That mind.

Wang Jiandang and Su Hongying looked at each other and didn't understand. Isn't this an obvious thing?Pauline knew it too, but now that she suddenly asked, she still used such a serious demeanor and tone, she was really not used to it!

In the end, it was Wang Jiandang who raised his eyebrows and motioned for Su Hongying to answer.

Well, if there are some strange and incomprehensible things, it is absolutely no problem to leave them to his daughter-in-law. After all, if Paulin has any strange questions or requests, he may hesitate to refuse, but his daughter-in-law is absolutely fine.

"Yeah, didn't you see the sparrows that my dad and I caught last time you came back?"

"But there have been some changes now. I believe you have seen it. After more than a month of catching sparrows in our Shanghe Village, there have been many fewer sparrows. Not only are they less, they are also fine. Not to mention."

"Last time the captain and the party secretary went to the town for a meeting, and when they came back, they said that they didn't want to stop. This pest control must be maintained at all times. It was said that it was for this year's food considerations. Only when the pests were eliminated in advance, they would not go to Huo Huo. Grain, grain can also indirectly increase production.”

"By the way, in addition to the previous sparrows and mice, there are now two new types of flies and mosquitoes. It is said that flies and mosquitoes can make people sick, and they are also pests. They must also be eliminated."

"My dad and I were worried about this just now. Now there are not too many flies and mosquitoes, and there are only so many in the house. Even if we fight and kill them with all our strength, we can't gather much together, and we can't reach the captain and the others. The number that each family turns in each week.”

"This eradication is determined on a per-family basis. For a family with a large number of people, it is enough to let the children do the work. It is enough to save it. It is very easy, but we have few family members. , you still have to study, my dad and I are so busy with work that we don’t have time at all, which causes us to often fail to complete the number set above.”

"Just last month, my family was deducted three work points. This is what my dad and I have worked so hard to earn back. It's gone in vain. I feel bad!" Speaking of this, Su Hongying raised her hand and made a fist. , beat his chest, the action is there, but the force is not heavy, mainly for venting.

Even so, Bao Lin and Wang Jiandang hurriedly stopped the person, even if the force seemed to be not heavy, but she suddenly acted like this.

"Mom. It's not." Paulin took Su Hongying's hand to beat her, and said with a trembling voice.

It was a bit scary to be like this suddenly, and she was stunned at first.

In her mind, those few work points are only a few cents, it's really not much, and it's not like that for those few work points.

"Why not? That's three work points, and it's almost worth half a day's hard work. By the way, I was deducted one work point from the secretary today, so I have four work points, which is almost worth your father's hard work for half a day. already."

"Besides, our family didn't pay enough, and we were deducted work points, but some people's family members caught a lot of pests. Not only did they not deduct, but they paid a lot, and they could earn one or two work points beyond a certain amount. For a long time, This gap is huge, you don’t know how expensive Chai Mi is if you don’t work at home, this time around, you’re missing a lot of work points in a month, let alone a year.” Su Hongying covered her forehead as she spoke, regretting it. When I got up, I didn't know whether to be angry with myself or angry with others.

"Did you know? The old house will turn in a lot of pests every month. I heard from others that you can get two extra work points every month. Apart from these, when the Li family and Xu family are not enough, they can pay for it from the old house. I have to fill it up, as far as I know, those two companies are not honest, every two months, the pests handed in can exceed one level, and they get two extra work points."

"It's so nice of you to breastfeed them. The foreigners do their best to help, just our family, no matter what you don't ask, there is no love at all. The things you took before are all blind, and people don't often look at us. ."
