Going to the countryside in the Northeast, educated youths became popular in the village with embroi

Chapter 34 Caught

"go with!"

That's fine. It's safer to take the two kids with you so they don't run around.

Furthermore, when the little kid keeps talking, children's words can make people laugh and lighten their mood.

Thinking of this, Yi Chichi led the two little kids to the team doctor's office.

Uncle Yaozi hadn't slept all night and was yawning non-stop.

Seeing Yi Chi bringing Niu Niu and the others over, he said feebly, "Watch me handling the medicinal materials. I'll go take a nap first."

"it is good."

Soon, a deafening snoring sound came from the house, like a saw.

Erdan listened for a while with his ears perked up, then sighed like a little adult, "Snoring loudly like my father, who was beaten by my mother and even knelt on the washboard."

Erdan's father's surname is Liu Mingdong, and everyone in the team calls him Dongzi. He is tall and burly like a bear.

He also had a beard and a somewhat fierce face, looking like a gangster.

In fact, he is cheerful and loves to laugh, but he is also a strict wife.

The daughter-in-law stared at him with fear.

Kneeling on the washboard is even more common.

Yi Chichi often heard from his aunt and others about him kneeling on the washboard. He laughed and said, "Does your father know that you said something embarrassing about him?"

"...I don't know, sister, don't tell my father."

"Then you have to please me."

Yi Chichi teased him, and the little kid heard the sound and thought hard with his not-so-chubby face, and then Chichi asked her, "Can I help you with the work?"

"all right."

"Then what do I do?"

Yi Chichi was not polite and quickly assigned tasks to the two little kids.

It's not difficult, just spread the herbs she brings out evenly.

The two children were doing it happily, and they were competing to see who could spread it evenly.

Aunt Ma and the others were stunned when they came to look for the baby.

Erdan's mother, Tu Jing, felt itchy and wanted to beat her baby, "I don't do anything at home, but I am diligent when I go out."

Aunt Ma sighed, "Niuniu is about the same. I finally found out that Xiao Yi is a good girl."

Tu Jing laughed, "There are a few educated youths in our team who can't do anything but work, but in fact everyone can do it."

This is true.

Unlike other teams, there are many things to do.

Although the educated youths in their team had often gotten into trouble before, they were within acceptable limits.

No loss was caused to the collective.

On the contrary, it was the educated youth from the brigade next door who went to the commune to file a complaint without telling the other brigade members.

One after another, it was really lively.

But this is not the point, the point is——

"I think they are having a good time with Yi Zhiqing. Do you want to take them back?"

"Farewell, let them play, they will go back later when they get hungry."

So, the two came quietly and left quietly.

Yi Chichi had no idea about this. She was busy doing the tasks assigned by Uncle Yao Zi while chatting with her two children.

It was noon in a blink of an eye, and the two children were hungry and wanted to go home for lunch.

She couldn't bear to be hungry, so she sent her two children home, and then returned to the Educated Youth Home to prepare lunch for herself.

Wang Nan and the others went up the mountain to collect firewood.

I brought equipment such as wood cutting knives, axes, and dry food, and also borrowed the bullock cart from the brigade headquarters.

I guess I won't be back until dark.

In the following time, Yi Chichi was busy making medicine, and Wang Nan and the others were busy hoarding firewood.

Suddenly, on November 11th, Yi Chichi's medicine was finally finished.

There are three kinds of medicine in total, which are powders to repel snakes, rats, insects, ants and other small creatures.

Powder to repel large beasts such as wild boars and wolves. The last one is a wound medicine, which has the effect of stopping bleeding, reducing inflammation and promoting muscle growth.

She sent all the first two powders to the brigade headquarters to the brigade leader and the others, gave half of the hemostatic powder, and kept the remaining half for herself in case of emergencies.

The captain and others who got the powder were skeptical about its effectiveness, but they still vowed, "If it's as useful as you said, I'll give you a few extra kilograms of meat when we get down the mountain."

Yi Chichi didn't want meat, so she said honestly, "Uncle, I want wild boar belly."

"???Wild boar belly?" This is a big guy.

"Ah."

"Why, that thing is not as delicious as meat."

People in the room looked at her like she was alien, thinking that this girl was a bit confused. How could anyone ask for wild boar belly instead of the good meat?

"Wild boars are omnivorous and have medicinal value. They have certain pharmacological effects on gastric diseases such as gastric bleeding...intestinal ulcers."

As soon as Yi Chichi's explanation came out, the captain and the others suddenly realized that no wonder they wanted wild boar belly, it turned out that it had such a use.

"Okay, if you hunt a wild boar, I will definitely leave you a pig belly."

Yi Chichi expressed satisfaction with this. She was not greedy, as long as she had it.

A wild boar belly mixed with medicinal materials makes a medicinal diet, which is enough to nourish her stomach.

After confirming the day when the brigade captain and the others would enter the mountain, Yi Chichi said goodbye and left the brigade headquarters in a good mood.

On the way back, I met Aunt Ma and the others. After exchanging pleasantries, Aunt Niu reminded me, "We will go to the market the day after tomorrow. If you want to go there, be prepared in advance."

"Thank you, aunt, for reminding me. I'll tell them when I get back."

Then, after receiving the reminder, Wang Nan and the others entered a state of excitement.

No one knew what was on sale, so a group of people started discussing enthusiastically what they wanted to buy.

Wu Yongfei said even more shockingly, "I want to buy beef."

Yi Chichi asked, "??? Is there beef for sale in the market?"

"I don't know. I heard that someone was selling it secretly before and was caught."

Then don’t think about it.

Beef is so rare that demand exceeds supply in the city.

There is a certain number of cows in a production brigade. If they die unexpectedly, they will have to be reported.

Half of the better ones will be handed over, and the other half will be kept in the team for distribution at each household.

It is not impossible to turn them all in.

There is no way, this is the current policy.

Although they knew it in their hearts, everyone still had a little more expectation in their hearts.

Wang Nan said softly, "We should bring more money, just in case we are lucky enough to meet a cattle dealer who is not afraid of death."

"bring!"

If you can buy something, you can buy something else. If you can't, you can buy something else.

At 6: in the morning on the th, Yi Chichi and the others set out to meet Aunt Ma and the others at the entrance of the village, and then followed the large army to Daji.

It's not far away, right in the big drying field between the two production teams next door.

Yi Chichi thought they had arrived early, but when they arrived, he found that there was a lot of noise and crowds of people.

The sound of shouts and whips whipping cattle, horses and donkeys can be heard all the time.

These animals were all tied with ropes and pulled carts behind them.

The car was full of people.

There are special sheds for keeping livestock and feeding them fodder and water.

The money is 15 cents for one morning deposit, and 22 cents for three o'clock in the afternoon.

In this era when a farmer's centimeter is not worth a few cents, the storage fee is not low.

But there is no way. In the era when there was no mechanization and manual labor was required, animals were more valuable than people.

People can survive for a while if they are sick, but if animals are not, they need to be looked at as soon as possible.

Each production team takes very good care of their animals, and they have to give them even three or four cents, not to mention one or two cents.

Don't freeze the animals until they starve.

Next year, they will be used to lighten people's burdens.
