With a Door In Mind

For a family like Aiju, unless there is a special opportunity, life will not be easy in the future.

There is no male labor force in the family, and they were not bullied to death.

It shows that Zhao Baoshan, the production leader, is very competent.

Or the atmosphere here is not bad.

When I got home, the sky was a little dark, and I happened to meet Xiaocao who was leading the scalper back.

The other party is leading the ox with his right hand, and is carrying a wicker frame on his back, which contains some grass that the ox eats.

And the left hand is holding a wooden bucket, which is the cow dung picked up by the grass when the cows are herding.

In the past ten days, although I haven't grown much meat, it's not a problem to grow more than twenty catties.

It's not like the skinny one before.

Moreover, the cow's spirit is very good, and it doesn't look sick at all.

"Brother Xiaochuan, why did you come back so early?" Xiaocao led the scalper to him and smiled at him.

"Oh, it's something to do when I come back. It's fine to feed it next time. Don't go to the grass, it's too good to eat. You can't eat enough."

Xiaocao let out a soft sound when she heard the words, and put the barrel on the ground.

He took the ox and tied it under the locust tree.

While tying the cow, he smiled and said, "I think it's raining, so I came back early. It's okay to stay there anyway."

Tie up the cow, and pour the cow dung in the barrel into a big pit on the side.

Then they went into the newly dug cave, shoveled out the cow dung inside, and put it on the dung pile on one side.

Zhou Xiaochuan watched the opponent's skillful movements.

Thinking of Xiaocao herding cattle like this every day, did he ask Captain Zhao for some work points for him?

Not too much, even 5 work points will do.

At least you don't have to earn a small amount of work points every few days like before.

Although Xiaocao's family is a five-year household, food and living materials are provided by the village.

But the quantity is definitely not the same as that of ordinary members, and some work points can also increase some benefits.

Zhou Xiaochuan wanted to help, but was stopped by Xiaocao, "Brother Xiaochuan, don't do it, that's all. Don't dirty your clothes."

Fortunately, he was wearing Zhou Xiaochuan's rubber boots.

After the cave dwelling was completed, he gave the rubber boots to Xiaocao.

After all, you can't go barefoot when shoveling shit in a cave dwelling.

It's just a bit big, and the walking posture is a bit weird, but with some cloth stuffed inside, it can barely be used.

While talking, Xiaocao looked at the wet ground in the cave, and said regretfully, "Brother Xiaochuan, it's a pity that this cow urine can't be kept."

Zhou Xiaochuan smiled when he heard the words, "So much is not enough for you. In addition, I can't use up my vegetable garden."

Xiaocao laughed when he heard the words.

Although the cow is relatively thin now, it can pull more than 20 catties of cow dung and ten catties of urine a day.

When the weight comes up in the future, it will not be a problem to lose forty catties a day.

During this period of time, with Captain Zhao's approval, he also opened a vegetable garden next to Xiaocao's family vegetable garden.

Zhou Xiaochuan looked at the dung heap that had already formed outside, at least it weighed more than a hundred catties.

Originally, he planned to dry the cow dung that hadn't touched the urine.

In this way, Xiaocao doesn't have to fire so much firewood in winter.

The cows eat grass, and after drying without further fermentation, there is basically no smell.

The one that continues to ferment will not work, it is stinky and smelly.

But from the looks of it, this method won't work, Captain Zhao probably has his eye on this pile of cow dung.

Xiaocao refused to let him do it, so he didn't do it.

Grandma Miao watched this scene with a smile on her side, and didn't complain about anything.

Carrying the wooden barrel, he walked towards the well water.

The house needs water, and the cow needs a lot of water every day.

Came to the place, no one was there.

The people in the village are diligent, and the water is ready early in the morning, because the water is full and very clear in the morning.

Zhou Xiaochuan looked at the water in the well.

Although it is summer now, the real dry season is in winter. I don't know if there will be water in this well after the water level drops.

After running several times to fill up the house and the cow feeding tank, it was getting late.

Those who went out to work have returned.

After finishing, Grandma Miao has already prepared all the meals.

Vegetable pancakes with tomato and egg soup.

And some pickles with peanut oil and sesame oil.

Egg soup is available almost every day now. Zhou Xiaochuan asked the two hens in the family not to change the eggs laid by them.

He wants to eat.

However, the salt and oil that the family lacked were covered by him.

Zhou Xiaochuan ate vegetable pancakes and pickles, and greeted the two of them, "Grandma Miao, don't ask me to tell you every time, can you just eat it?"

After speaking, he scooped some eggs from the egg soup to Xiaocao.

Grandma Miao looked at the pickles on the table. There was enough oil in them to last them for a week.

Just this week, Xiaochuan still dislikes too little oil.

"If you eat like this, can the oil keep up?" Grandma Miao said worriedly.

Zhou Xiaochuan smiled while eating pickles: "It's okay!"

To be honest, pickles with sesame oil taste really delicious.

This pickle is not particularly salty, he likes it very much.

Xiaocaozi smiled cheerfully beside him.

The eggs I laid before can only be eaten once or twice a week. It's not that I don't have them, but I can't bear them.

They have to be exchanged for things.

This is considered good in the village, after all, he is the only child in his family.

Now that Zhou Xiaochuan is here, he eats egg soup a day and scrambled eggs once a week.

How dare you think about it before.

He dared not tell his playmates.

When some playmates showed off that they ate eggs today, he kept silent.

After dinner in the evening, Zhou Xiaochuan went back to his room.

As soon as he entered the space, there was a knock on the door behind him.

Zhou Xiaochuan opened the door, looked at the little grass that was a little awkward outside, and asked strangely:

"What's the matter?"

Seeing this, Xiaocao faltered and said,

"Brother Xiaochuan, when you go to the county seat, can you bring me a first-grade book. I want to learn."

Hearing his words, Zhou Xiaochuan felt strange for a while.

"Didn't the village say that there is going to be a primary school? You just follow along when the time comes."

Hearing this, Xiaocao looked troubled and didn't speak.

Seeing the other person's expression, Zhou Xiaochuan understood, and asked, "Do you not want to go to school and want to earn work points?"

Xiaocao was silent for a while, then nodded slowly.

Zhou Xiaochuan hesitated when he heard the words.

The reason why he didn't make any big moves after he came here was because he didn't want them to return to their original life after he left.

Another reason is to not want to attract attention.

So what I can do after I come here are those projects that can continue to develop.

This is also the reason why he has always wanted to dig out that underground river.

This is more useful than giving them more food.

After all, the food will run out.

Seeing that Zhou Xiaochuan didn't speak, Xiaocao said anxiously: "I can herd the cows for you all the time. I can also exchange eggs for you."

Zhou Xiaochuan smiled when he heard the words, "All right. I understand. Just wait a moment."

After speaking, bring him in.

He took out a piece of letter paper from his bag and wrote 26 pinyin letters on it.

Handed him the paper. Then he said:

"I'll teach you the first three letters above, and if I have time later, I'll teach you slowly."

"But you don't have a pen and paper. How to learn and how to practice is up to you. How much you can learn is up to you."

These things can be provided by myself, but what should I do if I leave by myself in the future.

Hearing this, Xiaocao took the paper from Zhou Xiaochuan's hand and put it in his hand like a treasure.

He smiled at him. "Thank you Brother Xiaochuan."

After finishing speaking, he stared at Zhou Xiaochuan.

Seeing his expression, Zhou Xiaochuan smiled and led him to teach under the oil lamp.

Xiaocao studied very seriously.

Taught him the pronunciation of three letters, and sent him back to bed.

But when he left, Zhou Xiaochuan said again, "If you don't have paper, use a wooden stick to write on the soil. If you learn well, I will reward you with a pen and notebook in the future."

Xiaocao was excited when she heard the words, she didn't speak, but just nodded frequently.

Then he returned to his room with the baby in his hand.
