My 1979

"Mom, what do you mean by this? Look at whoever is responsible for the job and is willing to work in the fields. Then Liu Chuanqi is just a village cadre, and it still hurts and itches when he works every day." Duan Mei is here The person next to him couldn't help laughing and said, "My mother-in-law can bury her son like this, but she can't complain like this."

You know, the parents-in-law only left some dry land for a vegetable garden. The land, the house, the front and back of the house all belong to her and Li Long.

Even the wheat harvest in the field in front of them belongs to the two of them. At most, they can only give some rations to the parents-in-law, and the eldest brother-in-law will not get any of it.

This uncle was helping them with their work, so of course she wanted to know what was going on.

And she knew very well that without her uncle's care, how could the two of them have managed to get to where they are now? Not to mention their family's savings of one million yuan, they have a house in the county, and a big truck at home, counting from south to north, and from east to west. Their family is definitely unique.

Wherever she goes now, no one is polite to Duan Mei, but no one dares to roll their eyes at her.

Even her two brothers from her mother's family got involved with her, and she lent them money to open a store and start a business in the county. She also made great contributions to her old Duan family. When she returned to her parents' home, her back was straight.

The days that are promising and getting better and better make her full of strength.

Of course, if I have to say that I am dissatisfied, it is that the mother-in-law is a bit biased. She is afraid that the eldest daughter-in-law will be tired, and she is also afraid that the younger daughter-in-law will not be tired enough. Fortunately, she suppressed her anger when she thought that her mother-in-law still had hundreds of thousands in savings.

The eldest daughter-in-law has made it very clear that she will give up her future inheritance rights. Aren’t these all theirs?

Her current financial situation does not allow her to calculate and plan for her mother-in-law's small fortune. If she thinks about this all day long, what is the difference between her and a chicken that lowers its head to pick its food? Just thinking that these will belong to her in the future will make her feel a little more balanced.

When the wheat is harvested from the fields, the fields that cannot be driven by tractors need to be carried home one by one with carrying poles. The wheat fields are stacked one by one in the wheat field, like a hill.

Probably because he had received training in picking soil to open up wasteland in the Northeast, Li He picked wheat sheaves for a day in a row and managed to persevere even though his back and legs were still sore.

In terms of efficiency, it is much worse than Li Long. Li Long made five trips, but he had not finished two trips yet.

In the evening, before the sun set, he really couldn't bear it anymore. As soon as the burden was on his shoulders and before he had climbed two ridges, he thought of resting. After putting down the burden, I wiped my sweat with the hem of my clothes, sat on the ridge of the field, lit a cigarette, and blew out smoke rings in a daze.

Work for a while, rest for a while, this is his old routine.

He Zhaodi came over carrying a fork and asked, "Are you okay?"

Li He was stunned for a moment and said, "How can a man say no? Don't talk nonsense."

"Haha." He Zhaodi laughed, put the fork on his shoulder on the ground, and turned to pick up Li He's burden.

"Don't, don't." Li He hurriedly stood up and snatched it away. If He Zhaodi helped pick it out, the people of Lizhuang would be drowned in saliva, "Is your house finished?"

He Zhaodi said, "No, my family's land is no less than yours."

"Then you go and do your work." Li He gritted his teeth and picked up the burden again.

"Then please slow down, there are many gaps on the ridge." He Zhaodi did not forget to warn from behind.

"I got it." The bamboo burden swayed on his shoulders, making Li He unsteady as he spoke.

When I got home, I found Liu Laosi and Liu Dazhuang helping to pave the way.

Shake open the wheat, wheat ears facing wheat ears, wheat straw facing wheat straw, and spread it row by row until the entire drying area is covered.

The wheat awns shine with golden light in the setting sun, and you can hear the thin, clear sound of wheat jumping from the straw.

Liu Laosi helped take over Li He's burden and said with a smile, "Just rest, I'll pick it up for you."

His wife and children had no land, so his family only had land for him and his wife. Including the wasteland, there was no land for three people in total. For a sturdy man like him, it didn't take much effort to clear it all.

Seeing other people continue to carry food to his home, he could only feel envious.

"That's okay." Li Hezheng couldn't find an excuse to rest.

But he didn't rest either. He fixed the stone roller with a wooden frame with a shaft and tied it to the back compartment of the walking tractor with a long hemp rope. In this way, the tractor pulled the stone roller and pressed it on it in circles. On the paved wheat field, wheat can be threshed.

It would be more convenient to have a tractor to thresh, but people without tractors have to rely on manpower or animals to pull stone wheels around and around the wheat field.

Neighbors always borrow the tractor at home, and Wang Yulan will lend it out without hesitation.

How much oil was there when the car was driven away? Just fill it up when it comes back. If you are a good person, drive away with half a tank of fuel and give you a little more diesel when you bring it back. There are also unauthentic ones that drive away with a full fuel tank, but the fuel tank is very clean when they are returned.

Li Zhaokun will not tolerate these people who like to take advantage. If they want to borrow money a second time, there is no way.

After the stone wheel was bolted, Li Zhaokun cranked the car skillfully and let him do the work of threshing wheat. He has mastered the knack of threshing wheat, a skill he is proud of. Many people drive tractors to thresh wheat, but they still need to use their hands to turn the direction, but he does not use it.

He only needs to sit on the railing of the car and support the handlebar with one foot. He can make the car move steadily in a circular motion around the wheat field without even using his hands.

Li Zhaokun wanted to take the initiative to do the work, and Li He had no reason to compete with him.

He flopped down on the ground and waited to eat.

Just after dark, Li Mei's family drove a tractor. Knowing that her mother's family was working in the field today, she collected the grain from her family's wheat field and came to help. There is only land for three people in her family, mainly owned by her parents-in-law and Yang Xuewen. As for her and her children, they have not been allocated land.

Li He once proposed to his mother that he should give her the land in the family that originally belonged to his eldest sister, but Wang Yulan strongly opposed it. Her reasoning is very simple. Once a person gets married, where can he take the land with him?

There is no such rule in the village or outside the village. Even if she agrees, Duan Mei cannot agree.

Yang Huai jumped into Li He's arms and stuffed several apricots into his hand.

Li He wiped it casually, took a bite, and almost made his teeth sore. He grinned and said, "You can eat it yourself, eat it yourself."

"Sweet." Yang Huai took one bite at a time and didn't care.

Li Mei pulled Yang Huai away and said, "Go watch TV with your sister and don't pester your uncle."

Yang Huai was very obedient and took Li Ke to watch TV together.

Li Pei was also watching TV. Li He pulled him over and asked, "Have you finished your homework?"

Li Pei consciously took out his homework this time and said, "It's done."

"That's right. Let's check after the homework is done." Li He found that the child was still very obedient and asked him to correct it immediately. For example, after this stage of training, he wrote much more seriously than before.

The idea of ​​sending his children to study came up in his mind again, but he was afraid that neither Duan Mei nor his eldest sister would agree.

After dinner at eight o'clock, the whole family began to finish the work, mainly piling up the wheat straw and cleaning the wheat grains.

There are more people working, so the speed is very fast.

Yang Xuewen lifted the wheat with a wooden shovel, making a beautiful and far-reaching arc, and then said, "The wind is not bad."

The winnowing field requires the help of wind to blow away the chaff, flattened grains and wheat chaff and straw sticks. Wheat raising is a difficult technique to master, and a real farmer must master it. The separation of wheat grains and debris requires many times of winnowing.

Li Long took the big broom that grew seedlings and gently passed it over the wheat grains that had been blown away. He put aside the wheat residue that was a little heavy and difficult to separate from the wheat grains. Just like that, one lift and one sweep. They were all good players. After a while, the wheat grains were piled up in the field.

Li He took the woven bag and put the wheat in it, choking on the ash in his nose.

Li Mei said, "You take the shovel, and I'll open your pocket. The dust is getting bigger, so don't bear it."

"No, no, you can shovel it." Li He naturally refused.

Although Liu Laosi and others had left, there were still many people at home. In a short while, more than forty bags of wheat had been carried into the house. Even the room where Li He slept was filled with food, leaving only room for him to get on the bed.

After cleaning up the wheat field, Li Mei and his wife went back with their children regardless of dissuasion.

Li He looked at the time and saw that it was already past ten o'clock. He was dirty, either from dust or sweat. He disliked the inconvenience of washing at home, so he took a piece of soap and went to the river under the moonlight.
