The growth of the eldest daughter-in-law of the farm gate

Chapter 321 Remember to eat but not to fight

Happy time is always fleeting. In the blink of an eye, the final exam of the school is here. The reward system in which exams will be ranked based on performance was not announced in advance. The purpose is to allow children to take the first final exam without interruption. After all, once the news is announced, it is natural that they cannot hide it from the parents of each child. The reward involves money, and it is spread from one to ten, and from one to another. There are many people with mixed eyes, and it is easy to cause trouble for no reason before the exam, which turns a good thing into a bad thing.

After experiencing a midterm exam, students are more calm than the last time. I got ready early and waited for the exam.

The final exam is still the same as before, with the essay test in the morning and the physical test in the afternoon, and the final ranking is based on a comprehensive evaluation of the morning and afternoon scores. Originally, Zhao Yunlan wanted to create a single-subject performance ranking, but due to the small number of students in the first year and the tight schedule, the two gentlemen had just digested the reward system and it was not that complicated, so they gave up.

This time the test papers for the literary test were more complete and had more content. The children only felt that the test time was too short. Zhao Yunlan invigilated the exam but felt that the time passed too long, so he could only silently plan in his mind what he needed to bring home. After finally staying up until the bell rang, Zhao Yunlan looked at the children at the desk, with nearly half of their faces showing some annoyance.

After receiving the test papers, many students could not wait to compare their answers with each other. Zhao Yunlan shook his head and walked out of the teaching building with a smile.

Because I have to rush back to Lijiacun, the commendation ceremony for marking the test papers and taking the holidays must be completed in a short time.

After lunch, Zhao Yunlan took advantage of Huang Yuan's physical examination period and went to the dormitory with Chen Chongmin to review the test papers.

"Mr. Chen, thank you for your hard work."

Chen Chongmin didn't care and expressed his understanding that Zhao Yunlan was in a hurry.

The literary test is different from the physical test. The results of the physical test are what they are. After all, everyone's physical fitness is there. However, the score of the literary test may be affected by different marking teachers. Therefore, after the two of them have graded their own test papers, they have to exchange corrections. If there are still disputes, they will discuss and decide separately.

Time passed unknowingly. By the time Huang Yuan finished the physical examination and came to call the two gentlemen to rest for the third time, the sky was already getting dark.

Zhao Yunlan raised his head and couldn't help but twist his neck.

"I've finished grading today. Let's do the final ranking tomorrow."

Chen Chongmin's eyes were also painful. He stood up and turned around, "Well, then Mr. Zhao, please go back quickly. It's getting late."

Zhao Yunlan nodded. Fortunately, Li Mingren has changed the city gate system. The opening and closing time of the city gate is based on the sunset time in winter and summer. These days are still in summer time, and the city gate will be closed later.

Ruiwen returned home first after taking the exam, so mother and son were on different paths. Back at the county government office, the children had already eaten with several uncles, leaving only Li Mingren still waiting for Yunlan.

"If you're hungry, just eat first!" Zhao Yunlan said, washing her hands.

Li Mingren shook his head: "I'm not hungry. I just finished handling official duties for a while. There are a lot of county government affairs today."

"How was your day?"

The two of them added some food and started eating. Li Mingren said, "It's really a headache for those 'helping farmers' to go to the fields today."

The helpers are a group of idle people who have been organizing themselves. They have been helping the villages plow their fields and prepare to plant winter wheat in the past few days.

Li Mingren took a few mouthfuls of food before continuing: "In addition to being active when eating, I will try my best to be lazy when it's time to work."

"How many meals do you care about them a day?"

"Two meals!"

"You are very good. After a while, all of them will be fat and white because of you." Zhao Yunlan teased.

Li Mingren frowned helplessly, "I can't help it. They remember to eat but not to beat. The ones who stutter can still scream. I can't beat them every day. If I'm injured, I won't be able to work, and it will cost me a lot more." Spend money to treat the disease.”

Zhao Yunlan finished the last sip of the soup, put down the bowl and chopsticks, and said quietly: "Isn't it easy to remember to eat? Think more about it."

After that, Li Mingren was left alone in a daze, while Zhao Yunlan had to seize the time to spend time with his two children.

The next day, Li Mingren went to the Yamen excitedly.

Since these people care about eating and not fighting, let them not eat first.

"Sir, this morning..." Chen Yiqing was about to speak.

Li Mingren: "Let me start by saying, don't cook for them this morning, let them go directly to the fields."

"Ah? Okay, okay, but what to do after it's cooked." Chen Yiqing was worried about this matter. This morning, these people actually disliked eating whole grain porridge every morning.

"Keep it!"

Everyone who was still disgusted with coarse food suddenly learned that breakfast would not be provided, and they were even more sad.

"If you dislike it, then don't eat it." Li Mingren shouted loudly to stop the chaos.

Xie Changwang got the signal and personally led the team to watch this group of people today. Xie Changwang's methods have become famous in Shiyang County over the years. All prisoners who have been tortured by him personally know that this is the "King of Hell". With the "care" of this "King of Hell", everyone did not dare to make any noise anymore and could only follow and go to work in the fields. There are still some people in the team who are eager for this breakfast, and they can't help but feel a little resentful at being disturbed like this.

Li Mingren didn't care about that much, he just wanted to make them feel at odds so that he could defeat them one by one. Since we didn't stop someone when they were making trouble, we can only bear the consequences together.

After watching the team go away, Li Mingren continued:

"Tell the kitchen to prepare another piece of meat. It needs to be fat. Just cut it into ten slices, and cut it thicker. When the porridge is cold, we will take it to the field with the pot."

"Ah? Why is this?" Chen Yiqing was puzzled.

Li Mingren didn't show off and said directly: "When they are hungry, give them some gruel and they will find it delicious. Watch it later and reward them with two pieces of meat if they behave well."

Chen Yiqing nodded in understanding. This is to let everyone experience what it means to work hard so that you can eat!

After the autumn harvest, the county government has begun to provide lunch, with one dish and one meal every day, and occasionally soup. The rice is also mixed with half coarse and fine grains. As for the vegetables, it depends on what is generally available in the season. There will be meat and vegetables every three to five days.

The chef of the county government was mentioned by the servant of the county government. This person's name was Shi Qing. When he was not working as a servant of the county government, he worked in the back kitchen of the restaurant, so the cooking taste was good.

Although everyone misses the delicious meals He Hua cooked during the autumn harvest, the county government is very satisfied if they can provide a lunch. Now the efficiency of work in the county government has also improved a lot, and everyone is more energetic than before.

Li Mingren and Chen Yiqing had lunch at the county government office before taking the morning pot of coarse grain porridge and prepared meat to the fields.

At this time, the "agricultural assistance team" working in the fields were already complaining about hunger. Xie Changwang was unmoved and continued to whip his whip to make everyone work. Xie Changwang's whip was just right, not only making the affected area feel painful, but also not delaying everyone's work.

There are still villagers in the fields eating their own lunches. Although they are just grains, they have become a favorite in the eyes of the "agricultural assistance team".

Li Mingren came to the field and happened to see this scene. Everyone was watching others eating while not forgetting the work in hand. Don't forget the work in hand, not because everyone has changed gender, but because Xie Changwang's whip is watching from the side.

"Lao Xie, close the team and rest for a quarter of an hour." Li Mingren asked the servant to heat up the pot, then threw the meat into the pot and cooked together.

"Take it." Xie Changwang gave the order, and everyone gathered around the pot and walked over.

"Everyone stand still. If you don't want to rest, just keep working." Xie Changwang saw that everyone was out of order again and scolded him sternly. He waved the whip in his hand several times, making a rustling sound.

Everyone was too scared to take another step.

Xie Changwang continued: "Rest where you are and don't move around at will."

Everyone just squatted on the spot. Some people still wanted to pee, but they could only hold it in.

Li Mingren looked at Xie Changwang and whispered: "Who did well at work today? Only five people were selected."

Xie Changwang nodded and looked at the people in the field and shouted: "When I call out the name, stand up, Hou San'er, Qiao'er, Dalu, Dagou, Ergou."

The five people stood up. Because they did not hear what Li Mingren said, they thought they were going to punish themselves and scare the monkeys. They were all frightened and took a few steps forward tremblingly.

After receiving Li Mingren's signal, Xie Changwangcai said: "The five of you have worked the hardest among all the people today, so the five of you will go get bowls of rice first. In addition, for those who perform well, each person will be given two slices." Meat."

When several people heard that they were about to eat, they were still a little disbelieving. Xie Changwang waved his whip and said, "Hurry up and don't waste time." Only after hearing the voice did everyone come back to their senses.

Knowing that they would be able to eat meat soon, the five of them were almost drooling. They couldn't wait to run over and get a bowl, waiting for the servant who was serving rice to put it into the bowl.

"Wow, such a big piece of meat." Ergou couldn't help but be excited when he saw the meat.

The big dog said: "It's still two yuan."

The sound was quite loud, and other people who didn't read the name naturally heard it and swallowed unconsciously.

"I can't stop your mouths when you eat." Chen Yiqing scolded from the side, and several people didn't dare to make any noise. They each squatted down with their bowls and started to eat. After being hungry all morning, everything I eat now tastes delicious, not to mention two pieces of fat meat.

After the five of them finished one bowl, Li Mingren asked for a second bowl before letting the others start serving rice.

It's just that the people behind not only have no meat, but also can't add a second bowl. After the pot was divided, only half of the pot was left. Li Mingren distributed it directly to the people working in the nearby fields.

After all the work, Li Mingren didn't say a word. He just waited for everyone to finish eating. The servants collected the bowls and chopsticks and left. In the afternoon, they stayed and continued to help the villagers with their work.

After doing this for five days, only one meal a day, this "agricultural assistance team" has changed a lot. Everyone is no longer lazy and slippery, and has become more disciplined.

Li Mingren: "The work will be heavy tomorrow. Let's cook them a meal of dry food to give them a change of taste."

Tomorrow he would have to pick manure for the villagers, which was a tiring and uncomfortable job. Li Mingren thought that he should not push people into a hurry, but should encourage them when it was time to encourage them, so that everyone could see hope.

Sure enough, although they did the most tiring work the next day, everyone stopped complaining after eating a bowl full of dry food and cabbage fried with oil residue at noon. All they could think about was the deliciousness of the food.
