Return to the era, take over and become a winner in life

Chapter 98 Fan Dajun's Plan (Subscription Request)

"Brother Xu Ye, can I borrow your donkey later?"

"I have a big millstone at home, and I want to make some tofu." Lin Feng'er walked to Xu Ye and asked softly.

She applied some snow frog oil on her body, which had a faint fragrance and was quite comfortable to smell.

"It's not a big problem to borrow it, but it's still small and can't pull the big mill." Xu Ye did not refuse.

"That's okay. I'm not in a hurry. It'll be fine as long as I can borrow it in the future." Lin Feng'er smiled faintly.

"Sister Ruoan, you are so lucky to have found a man as capable, resolute and courageous as Xu Ye. He is much better than my husband Fan." As she said that, Lin Feng'er went over and took Jiang Ruoan's arm, looking very familiar with her.

Jiang Ruoan couldn't resist the other party's enthusiasm, so he called Lin Feng'er to walk towards the kitchen.

At this moment, Jiang Ruyue was cooking lunch, and Li Qian, who came back from school early, helped to light the fire.

"This is the firewood-saving stove built by Xu Ye. I've heard from my husband, Mr. Fan, that this stove saves a lot of firewood."

"Sister Ruoan, when you are free, can you ask Xu Ye to build one for our family?"

Jiang Ruoan felt respected, turned his head and glanced at the door, then said: "I need to ask this, it requires Brother Ye to be free."

After all, Fan Dajun is the captain, and since his lover has asked for it, Xu Ye will definitely not refuse.

However, Jiang Ruoan would not help Xu Ye to agree to these things, as she did not want to cause trouble for Xu Ye.

She can be a bad person and keep everything out, but she will never be a good person and leave all the troubles to Xu Ye to deal with.

Lin Feng'er said with a smile: "Don't worry, when Xu Ye is free, you can come to our house and do it."

"I just like his craftsmanship. No one else can do it as well as he does."

Jiang Ruyue always felt that what Lin Fenger said was a little strange, but she couldn't tell what was strange about it.

Lin Feng'er stayed in the kitchen for a while and then went back, after all, she didn't have lunch at home.

However, she said that she would come to visit often in the future, saying that it was boring to be alone at home.

After sending her to the door, Jiang Ruoan told Xu Ye that Lin Feng'er wanted him to help build a firewood-saving stove.

Xu Ye thought about it and said he would talk about it in two days.

Having just received the Type 38 rifle, he wanted to try out the gun and go into the mountains to practice.

So, for now, I don’t have time to help build the firewood-saving stove.

In the afternoon, Xu Ye will build a breeding shed in the corner of the yard to raise bamboo rats and chickens.

One is to prevent bamboo rats from escaping, and the other is to facilitate cleaning.

Although these animal feces are fertilizers, they stink.

It is not convenient to collect and clean the waste if it is pulled everywhere, and it is also very unhygienic.

With Xu Ye's words, Jiang Ruoan knew how to respond.

The two chatted for a while and then went to have lunch.

Just now, Zhang Sanbao and his team went back to have lunch after moving the bricks. They still need to work in the afternoon.

Xu Ye did not mention hunting, and they did not ask about it.

Today's lunch was not that sumptuous, just two dishes and a bowl of rice soup.

One dish is bacon, and the other is sweet potato vines.

It’s not that Xu Ye disliked it, he just missed the vegetable garden of Liu Quansheng’s family.

They have a wide variety of vegetables, I don’t know who is getting the benefit.

Xu Ye wanted some seeds and plant them in the yard himself.

"Xu Ye, we have run out of rice at home. Do you want to go to the commune to buy some? We still have rice coupons for 100 kilograms of rice that we haven't used up." Jiang Ruyue said as she picked up some food for Li Qian.

"When Li Qing comes back this weekend, ask her to buy it and bring it back."

If the donkey wasn't too small, Jiang Ruoan could ride it to the commune to buy things, which would be a lot easier.

"Then you can eat sweet potato rice next." Jiang Ruyue knew that Xu Ye was not used to the moldy sweet potato rice.

Sweet potato rice is only suitable for eating when it is freshly made. If it is left for a long time, it will have a musty smell.

Because they are in a mountainous area and the air humidity is relatively high, the sweet potato rice will have a musty smell after absorbing moisture.

"Don't worry, I will take care of the food issue."

"It will be available tomorrow morning, but you can't tell anyone outside, got it?"

"Xiao Xixi, do you remember this?" Xu Ye said as he scratched her nose.

Xu Ye was mainly speaking to her.

After all, we live together and there is no way to hide these things.

The only thing we can do is to guide her to be more low-key outside.

"Yeah, I know. We eat sweet potato rice with pickles for every meal at home, and sometimes we have some bacon."

"That's what I always say in school, hehe. Uncle Ye, am I very smart?" As she spoke, Li Qian looked at Xu Ye as if she were presenting a treasure.

Xu Ye was slightly stunned, then touched her head.

"Sissi is so smart and sensible."

He is indeed sensible, so sensible that it makes people feel distressed.

She already knows how to protect herself and keep a low profile.

In this way, Xu Ye doesn't have to worry.

Xu Ye couldn't help but glance at Jiang Ruyue.

She has been taking care of Li Qian for the past two years. She is so sensible, which must be influenced by Jiang Ruyue.

After all, Jiang Ruyue herself is such a person. She is low-key and reserved in her life and work, and never shows off.

At this time, it is more appropriate to be low-key and introverted, so that you can live a good life. If you are too high-profile, you will be envied and targeted.

In serious cases, you will be scolded.

After breakfast, Li Qian brought some to feed Li Dongming.

Xu Ye rested for a while and then started building the breeding house.

Jiang Ruyue and Jiang Ruoan assisted Xu Ye, wanting to help him.

The three of them cleared the corner on the left, which was farthest from the kitchen.

Xu Ye planned to build an L-shaped breeding house against the corner of the wall, using one side to house chickens and the other side to house bamboo rats.

Build a pool next to the breeding house, and the water used to flush the breeding house will flow into the pool.

This water can be used to water vegetables, which can be regarded as recycling.

The breeding house does not need to be too high, a height of about 1.2 meters is enough.

As expected, Lin Feng'er came to visit in the afternoon, and after seeing them building the breeding house, she enthusiastically helped.

Xu Ye was a little wary of Lin Feng'er's enthusiasm.

He had moved here for some time, and he had never seen Lin Feng'er come to his house before, but she came one after another.

As for the story about the donkey pulling the mill, Xu Ye definitely didn't believe it.

There are donkeys in the team. Her husband is Fan Dajun, so isn't it easy for her to borrow one?

But she had always helped in an orderly manner, and Xu Ye couldn't find any problems with her.

Moreover, she talked and laughed with Jiang Ruoan and others, gossiping about various things in the team, and they got along very harmoniously.

So Xu Ye couldn't stop it and could only be on guard himself.

Towards evening, while Jiang Ruoan was making tea, Lin Feng'er asked while wiping her sweat with a handkerchief.

"Brother Xu Ye, did An An tell you about our family's fuel-saving stove?"

Xu Ye didn't look back, and said directly: "I told you, but I have to go into the mountains to test the new gun tomorrow, so I may be free to help you build it in two days."

"If you're in a hurry, you can look for my dad and Zhang Fu. They're good enough now."

Lin Feng'er looked at Xu Ye's profile and couldn't help swallowing.

Then, she said, "Don't worry, I still prefer you to do it."

"It's all thanks to you this time. If you hadn't known in advance that the Liu family bastard would come back, our captain Lao Fan would have been robbed."

"In a few days, Yang Zongming will concurrently serve as the brigade secretary."

Upon hearing the news, Xu Ye turned his head in surprise and looked at Lin Feng'er.

The branch secretary has more say than the team leader, and since Yang Zongming also serves as the accountant, the team will be led by Yang Zongming and Fan Dajun will be the assistant.

"So, Lao Fan would like to treat you to a couple of drinks. I wonder when you are free?" Lin Feng'er looked at Xu Ye with expectant eyes, with a faint smile on her lips.

"Then let's do it at night." Xu Ye also wanted to find Fan Dajun to find a way to buy cement, so he might as well take advantage of this opportunity.

"Okay, then I'll go back and prepare dinner. Sister Ruyue, you don't have to cook for Xu Ye tonight." Lin Feng'er said happily.

Jiang Ruyue nodded, then glanced at Xu Ye.

Her intuition told her that Lin Feng'er must have other purposes.

However, she couldn't remind Xu Ye just based on her intuition, as that wouldn't be convincing.

Another point is that Xu Ye is very restrained, patient and vigilant enough.

He was so careful in dealing with gang traps, let alone the unclear relationship with the wife of a captain.

In the evening, Lin Feng'er went back to prepare dinner, and Xu Ye had already built the breeding house.

Only the bricks have been laid and lime has been scraped on the outside, and the inside of the breeding house has not been touched.

The waterproof performance of lime is not as good as that of cement. It is fine to use it to paint walls, but it is not suitable for painting farm houses. You need to buy cement to paint it.

Xu Ye couldn't buy cement without a receipt or ticket, so he could only buy it in the name of the brigade.

There was still some time before dinner, so Xu Ye started digging the pit.

He planned to use the remaining bamboo to build a shed on the roof of the breeding house.

There is also a little donkey at home, which cannot be kept in the house.

If there is enough cement, you can also build a donkey pen for it.

Xu Ye still has some aspirations for his own life and doesn't want to be as casual and unrefined as other people.

You clearly have the ability and conditions, so why do you have to be the same as everyone else?

After the pits were dug and the bamboos were buried, the bell for the end of work in the commune was rung.

Xu Ye rested for a while and took a quick shower, and then Fan Dajun came.

After calling Xu Ye a few times, he walked to the side of the breeding house and started observing.

"You guys from the old city are different. Even a chicken coop needs bricks."

"But it does look comfortable. We no longer have to worry about them being pulled everywhere." Fan Dajun said as he handed Xu Ye a cigarette.

"It's just that I have a bit of a mysophobia problem. I'm sorry to make you laugh, Captain Fan." Xu Ye explained that one cannot be too refined in life at this time. Being refined means there is a problem with one's thinking and it needs to be reformed.

But if someone is sick, no one will dwell on this little problem.

"You, you really are..." Fan Dajun pointed at Xu Ye with his finger in the air.

Cautious, too cautious.

With a person like this, can I really borrow his essence?

Or, just forget it?
