Hard times have room

Chapter 614 Food in the Team

The next day, when we came together in the morning, Pauline made breakfast with sweet potatoes. After the family of three ate it, they went out each with their backpacks.

Although the family has received grain now, there is no shortage of food for the time being, but the wild vegetables still have to be dug up and eaten together. The food consumption is too fast.

Baolin went to the small bamboo forest next to the house. Although the wild vegetables were a little barren, she went alone and if she had a place to be her own, it would be fine, and she could bring back half of it.

Of course, in addition to the task of digging wild vegetables, she also has another task, which is to be responsible for the food of the five bamboo rats at home. Generally speaking, it is enough to chop a few bamboos and bring them back, which is still very easy to complete.

Su Hongying and Wang Jiandang were going to go a little further. They went to the back mountain to look for wild vegetables in the large grassy area. There were many people there and the competition was fierce. However, there were also many wild vegetables.

After more than an hour, Paulin had already brought wild vegetables home. Without him, there were no wild vegetables in Xiaozhulin. She misestimated the number of wild vegetables there.

It might be that the land in the small bamboo forest is drier, and there are fewer wild herbs than when she went there seven or eight days ago. , which is also the amount of padding.

I couldn't see any results there, and I was busy with work, so Pauline simply went back. It is also good to cut sweet potatoes at home.

After such a busy day, most of the sweet potatoes at home were cut, and the rest was saved for tomorrow.

As a result, the next day, early in the morning, the three of them were still eating breakfast, and the gong in the team was beating.

Although Su Hongying and Wang Jiandang felt very puzzled, they hurriedly drank the porridge in the bowl, went out, and went outside to find someone to ask what was going on.

In the past five or six days, their family has basically not had any interaction with other people. They all dig grain in the ground, or they are drying things, digging wild vegetables, etc., they can't be busy, there is something going on in this village, that's true is not clear.

Wang Jiandang and Su Hongying put down their chopsticks and went out, but Paulin didn't go with them, and was still sitting at home to eat. Her parents could inquire about these matters, but she should not join in the fun.

After dinner, Pauline put away her parents' bowls and washed them together. The two had already emptied all the porridge in the bowls before they went out, so the bowls were empty, and there were not many bowls in her family. After every meal, it needs to be cleaned.

Next, Pauline continued to work on yesterday's work at home, taking out the sweet potato with insect eyes at home, and cutting off the broken parts.

The most important thing is to be careful and slow, just cut off the broken sweet potatoes, and keep all the good ones. This is food, the most precious food right now.

The same is true for cutting sweet potatoes, try to cut them as thin as possible, and cut them into smaller ones, so that they are easy to dry in the sun.

If this was in later generations, there would be a special tool for shaving sweet potatoes. It's not easy and the speed is fast, but it's not possible now. At least she has never seen such a tool here, and it has always been cut by hand.

After about half an hour, Su Hongying and Wang Jiandang frowned and entered their yard worriedly. When they came back, they immediately looked for the hoe and grappling hook at home, and they were about to go out.

Pauline knew something was wrong when she saw their frowning brows, but she didn't know what was going on because she didn't go with her.

"Mom, what's wrong?"

"Where are you going with the hoe?" Pauline put down the knife and sweet potato in her hand, stood up, and asked.

"There was a meeting in the village just now, and they said that the sweet potatoes and peanuts in the ground should be taken back. No, let's bring our own tools to work!" Su Hongying raised the hoe in her hand and said with a displeased expression.

"Then it's not a bad thing, right? Why are you still frowning? The food in the village has to be dug up and collected. It's too late to start harvesting food after everyone's own food has been collected. already."

Grain in the fields is always harvested. Compared with the fields that are carefully served by one’s own family, the food crops in the fields of the village collective are pitiful. Not to mention they grow slack, the leaves have turned yellow early, and the plants are still tall Short, you can tell at a glance that the harvest is not good.

In fact, the collective land of the village had been collected once before, but that time it was corn and soybeans. The time was just two days before her family started collecting things, and it didn't take long.

The corn and soybeans that were collected were all added up, and there were only three bags of soybeans and a dozen bags of corn, which was really not much. Now they are still in the warehouse of the brigade.

Those soybeans and corn are still in the warehouse of the brigade. I plan to wait for the sweet potatoes and peanuts to be collected in the warehouse, and then divide them together.

"It would be great if this is the case. After I have harvested the grain, and then I have the grain, then what should I worry about."

"Isn't this grain not in our hands at all? Just at the meeting, the captain and the party secretary said that it was said that we grow grain privately in this place, which violates the regulations. No, all the grain in the ground will be collected. Don't We can still leave half of the place, we can't do it, we have to turn it over in full."

"Today, the town will send people down, and we will live in the brigade. At that time, we will have to be watched by people when we do our work, and we are afraid that someone will do something "outrageous"." Speaking of this, Su Hongying paused, It seemed that he thought of that scene, and his face was unhappy.

People in this town are like watching them work. Afterwards, they have to take away all the food. Thinking about it, she feels suffocated. She is happy.

"Before we were busy and busy, isn't this just blind, now we have to help them dig up the food, and then hand over it obediently, in the end, we can't stay at all, we are all blind, that's all, Who still wants to go to work, anyway, in the end, he did not fail at all."

"If I had known this, I shouldn't have gone to work before. Just let your dad go alone and dig up wild vegetables. Maybe there are more bags of wild vegetables in our family!" Su Hongying said about this. , that's full of anger.

Of course, qi returns to qi, she still has to go to work, she is just a little fart, can't she still disobey the orders from above, she's just memorizing it.

This year's work points have been in vain. Thinking of her and Wang Jiandang's hard work for more than three months, they were all blind and in vain. She is now saying a few words to complain and complain about what's wrong. It should be.

Originally, she thought that after receiving the grain, how could the family distribute dozens of catties of grain from the village, but now it seems that there is no drama at all.
