Chapter 231 Kind Reminder
Chapter 231 Kind Reminder
Autumn harvest is very tiring and hard.
Fortunately, it didn't take long, only about a month.
Luo Wanyi can still bear it for about a month, and the temperature is lower than during the double rush. Although it is not crisp and clear in autumn, it is not as high as the double rush.
Moreover, Luo Wanyi did not treat herself badly at all, and certainly did not treat her five children badly.
During the day, I try to cook as simple as possible, but it’s either noodles, steamed buns, eggs, and dumplings. I don’t know, the food is much better than other restaurants.
Even worse at night, they either fried poached eggs, braised bacon in rice, steamed egg custard, or cut a fifth of the cured duck from the kitchen beam into stir-fry.
The five children eat happily every day, and their mouths are almost full of oil.
Of course, Luo Wanyi felt that she had the hardest time, and would secretly give herself extra meals every day.
Either self-heating hot pot, but durian, ham, salt-baked chicken, shredded chicken, instant noodles, watermelon, mango, cantaloupe, potato chips, cake, senbei, chicken feet and duck feet...
Or just make some sesame paste and kudzu powder.
She could eat secretly two or three times a day, and apart from being a little tired from working, she didn't suffer at all from the food.
Therefore, when others are suffering, Luo Wanyi and her five children should not live too well.
After handing over the public grain, there wasn't much life in the fields, and the weather became colder and colder.
Zhou Huainan would write a letter to Luo Wanyi almost every week. During the autumn harvest, she had already received four letters before she had time to reply.
Luo Wanyi planned to take her eldest child, Li Minghao, to the commune that day, and next time it would be the turn of her second child, Zhang Baisheng. This was what they had agreed upon.
In addition to her going to the commune, Fang Xiaohong and the others also went. Their team has always been basically fixed.
It’s just a matter of whether the people are together or not.
The autumn harvest has just ended, so everyone naturally has to go to the commune to improve the food supply and purchase the daily necessities that are in short supply, such as oil, salt, sauce and vinegar.
The main reason why Luo Wanyi took her eldest son there was that the child also had to see the world. What if he didn't dare to interact with people in the future? !
She often saw the members being in awe and fawning over the waiters in state-owned restaurants, salesmen in supply and marketing cooperatives, people in grain stores, and other people who had iron rice bowls. Of course, Li Minghao and the others couldn't become like others.
She didn't bring them here before, mainly because she couldn't see so many children by herself, and expected Fang Xiaohong and the others to be bad too. After all, it wasn't just one or two, but a series of five.
Not to mention that Fang Xiaohong and the others were willing to help, Luo Wanyi didn't dare to take them out. If one of them was lost, it would really cost her her life.
Therefore, Luo Wanyi decided to bring one child with her every time she came to the commune. An older child like Li Minghao understood everything at an old age, and the traffickers were unwilling to abduct him, so she felt relieved to bring him out.
Luo Wanyi also explained the second child Zhang Baisheng well to him. She was absolutely equal to them. Everyone had it, and everyone didn't have it, including herself of course.
Li Minghao was very excited. He also carried a small bag on his back. He was going to send letters and packages to his father. They missed their father.
This time, in addition to sending a letter, Luo Wanyi also sent him a package.
Moreover, this package is really not small.There are almost ten kilograms of mountain products, a jar of special medicine that can be used for a month, and about a kilogram of pork jerky, which Luo Wanyi made a few days ago.
The pork was brought back from the county by Zhou Aidang and Zhou Aiguo. Both brothers bought pork and some bones, and then gave them two kilograms of pork and two large pig bones.
The two brothers bought a total of four kilograms of pork, which they obtained privately from the pig slaughterhouse two days apart, as well as the bones.
However, although Luo Wanyi accepted the pork, she did not intend to take it for nothing. This time she went to the commune, she planned to buy some meat buns for Party Secretary Zhou and Aunt Zhou.
Two kilograms of pork couldn't make much pork jerky, so Luo Wanyi took a kilogram and made it in two batches and ate it with the children.
The remaining one pound was indeed made into pork jerky, but one pound of fresh pork would definitely not make one pound of pork jerky, so Luo Wanyi bought a few more packages of pork jerky from the system platform and mixed it in.
This is the third time Li Minghao has come to the commune. Last time he came with his whole family, and this time he came with Luo Wanyi.
The group first went to the post office to send letters and parcels, and then went to the Xinhua Bookstore together. After entering the bookstore, Luo Wanyi asked Li Minghao to pick out books, pens, ink, paper, homework books and the like, and she walked around by herself. , bought two high school textbooks.
"Wanyi, why did you buy these textbooks again?! Isn't this a waste of money?! Now I can't get into college."
Fang Xiaohong and the others were also walking and reading casually in the bookstore. When they saw the textbook in Luo Wanyi's hand, they felt that she wasted money and there was no point in studying now.
Fang Xiaohong is not the only one who thinks this way, Shen Mengyun, He Aihua, Tan Qingqing, Guan Xiaofang and others also think the same. Some of them have graduated from junior high school, some have graduated from high school, and some have not graduated from high school.
Therefore, I don't quite understand why Luo Wanyi bought these middle and high school textbooks. She doesn't have to go to school now that she's married.
"Sister Xiaohong, Sister Qingqing, Sister Mengyun, Sister Aihua, and Sister Xiaofang, although they can't take the college entrance examination now, it will be beneficial if they can consolidate their knowledge in junior high school and high school."
"What if one day the production team primary school, the commune primary school, or the factory in the county wants to recruit workers, and we fail to pass the exam?! Doesn't this mean we have missed a great opportunity?!"
"I have always believed that opportunities will always come to those who are prepared. For example, if Lao Zhou's employer wants to introduce me to work in a factory, wouldn't it be better to be a director than a worker?! As long as I have good grades and good culture If you have a high level, you can sit in the office, don’t have to sweat in the workshop, don’t have to work three shifts, and the salary is higher than others.”
Luo Wanyi has long wanted to give the educated youth a warning through his actions, and today is a good opportunity.
If one day Zhou Huainan really applied for the army report, she would have to take her children to join the army. She would have no chance to tell the educated youths in the future, and she would not be able to remind them.
"It seems that Ronaldinho is indeed right."
"It is definitely better to study well than to study poorly."
"That is, you will always get more opportunities if you study well than if you study poorly."
"Then, I'd better listen to Luo Wanyi. Even if we don't recruit workers here, maybe our hometown recruits workers. If we can pass the exam, we can go back."
"I also agree. Anyway, when we are not working, we are idle. Why not read a book and treat it as review and preparation? There is no loss."
"That's right. There is no work to do in winter. If you don't read, you just sleep and warm yourself by the fire. It's better to read a book to make the days pass faster."
"I don't think I brought any textbooks."
"I have it, I'll lend it to you."
"Okay, go back and lend me a copy."
"no problem."
