Several people went to her small vegetable patch to take a look, and there were indeed some green sprouts popping up. Song Yingwan came to see them several times every day. Seeing their loving faces, she almost raised these vegetables as her children. , the thank you speech was once incomprehensible.
Sister-in-law Hongying nodded, "It's okay. It's just a cold night today, but the sun is pretty good during the day. The buds will grow strong after a while."
Aunt Guihua, "We can eat our food just a little while longer. I'll bring you some by then. No matter what, we can't let you go without food!"
Song Yingwan was not modest either, "Okay, then I'll wait!"
He said regretfully: "I planted a little late this time, and I didn't plant many vegetables. I only planted cabbage the most. I won't be able to eat only Chinese cabbage this winter!"
Aunt Guihua also sighed, "It's cold here today, and vegetables don't grow well in winter, so every household only eats cabbage and radishes."
Sister-in-law Hongying said, "It's okay. I dried some dried bamboo shoots and mushrooms before, and I'll get some out for you when the time comes."
Song Yingwan just sighed, naturally he would not be so imprudent, "But goodbye, there are only two of us in my family, Xie Ci and I, and we can't eat so much. I just feel sorry for my vegetables, and I'm afraid they won't grow well."
Sister-in-law Hongying, "You still need to eat vegetables when you have a small number of people. As you said, it's just two people. This can still be balanced."
Aunt Guihua saw the two of them tugging at each other endlessly, and said angrily: "Have you two forgotten about me? Hongying and I can just make it together. After all, I have eaten a meal from you, and Auntie still doesn't want me." Not willing to give up on anything like this.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Sister-in-law Hongying and Song Yingwan looked at each other, somewhat unexpectedly.
Song Yingwan quickly coaxed, "How can that be possible? Everyone in Liujia Village doesn't know that Aunt Guihua is the most generous person!"
Aunt Guihua couldn't help but curl her lips and said in disgust, "You are the only one who can speak!"
After being silent for a while, sister-in-law Hongying suddenly remembered and said, "Yingwan, you and your wife should prepare firewood for the winter. This winter is no joke. If you don't have enough firewood, you will suffer a lot." "
Aunt Guihua also added, "Hongying is right. Those educated youths didn't take it seriously when they first came here. Halfway through the winter, they ran out of firewood. In the middle of the winter, the mountains were covered with snow. How could they still pick up firewood?" When we have firewood, we go to the villagers to borrow it. Everyone piles up a certain amount of firewood every year, and their own families have to count how much they can get out. That year, the children from the city suffer a lot!"
Song Yingwan smiled and said, "Then I and Xie will go to the mountain to pick it up tomorrow. The stupid bird will fly first!"
Sister-in-law Hongying, "That's right!"
After dinner, Song Yingwan told Xie Ci about this matter. He also agreed with the idea of collecting firewood early. If the two of them were inexperienced, they should listen to the advice of their elders, at least they would not suffer a big loss.
In fact, it is not very early to collect firewood now. Most people in Liujia Village are used to starting at the end of the month. It is already the middle of the month, not a few days earlier.
Xie Ci was worried that she would be tired from hiking up the mountain to carry firewood every day, so he thought for a while and said, "How about I go pick up firewood? It's not easy to walk on the mountain."
Song Yingwan immediately refused, "No, it's not like you can collect firewood for a day or two. You can't collect firewood for a whole winter by yourself."
Thank you, "I go there every day after work at noon. I should be able to make two trips. If it doesn't work, just call Xu Lang to come over and help."
Song Yingwan walked up to him, looked at the person in front of him and said, "Even if you are an iron man, you can't resist doing this every day. In order to light firewood, your body will not be exhausted. Moreover, Xu Lang himself has to pay for the educated youth." I’m just collecting firewood. I’m sure they’ll have some ideas over time.”
Then he added, "It doesn't matter to me. It's too heavy to carry, so I'll carry it less. It's easier for two people than one person."
After saying this, he still frowned slightly, his eyelids drooped, and his eyelashes looked thick and thick. Song Yingwan couldn't help but look at him again and again.
She smiled lightly, knelt down and looked at him, her eyes bright and her voice soft, "Is that okay, Xie Zhiqing?"
Seeing her obedient look, Xie Ci couldn't say anything. He curled his lips and smiled, "...Okay."
Song Yingwan was satisfied, "Then we will go tomorrow, but you have to go to work. You can't go after work at noon. Then it will be a problem for us to eat."
After hesitating for a while, he said, "I will ask for leave from the team leader tomorrow. I will only work in the morning, and the two of us will go up the mountain to collect firewood in the afternoon. This will be more efficient."
"good!"
Anyway, the two of them don't rely on work points to earn a living. In fact, she didn't even understand why the captain didn't ask the captain to assign him an easier job. He obviously had this condition.
But she never asked, everyone has their own way to choose life, not what they think is the best.
After the matter was discussed, Song Yingwan's legs were a little numb from squatting. After standing up and stretching her legs and feet, she felt that she had nothing to say, so she went back to study.
well! Self-control is really not easy, she thought as she walked.
She teeters on the edge of depravity countless times every day.
Xie Ci looked at her neat back and was speechless for a long time, then sighed again.
After finishing work at noon the next day, Xie Ci went to the brigade captain to ask for leave. The brigade captain also knew that the two of them had good family conditions and did not have to work so hard for food all day long like others.
To be able to achieve the position of captain, he must have a thorough understanding of the world, so he is not willing to embarrass them. He usually turns a blind eye to trivial matters and passes them by, and does not want to worry too much about them.
Song Yingwan and the two of them naturally remembered the captain's conduct. Song Yingwan sighed, "The captain has great wisdom!"
Xie Ci smiled and said, "It's convenient for others and it's convenient for himself. He doesn't want to cause trouble for himself."
Song Yingwan nodded in agreement.
Thank you, "Okay, let's eat quickly, we have to go to the mountain to chop firewood later."
Thinking that there was still business to do, Song Yingwan stopped talking. Only when he had a full meal would he have the strength to work!
After dinner, Xie Xie borrowed a pole from the Educated Youth Point to carry firewood. Song Yingwan carried her basket on her back. Thinking of the heavy workload today, she also prepared a pot of water to take with her, and found two more A pair of gloves, I put on one pair, and asked Xie Ci to put on the other pair.
The two of them naturally headed back to the mountain. At this point, most people in the village had just finished eating and were resting, so they didn't meet many people on the road. When someone asked them, they told the truth.
After they left, others looked at the backs of the two handsome men and women, and just sighed that the young couple could live a good life.
After the two of them arrived at the mountain, they did not intend to go inside. They just stayed on the outside first. The trees on Daqing Mountain were old and tall and dense, so it was not a problem to find dead trees and branches.
I still remember that when Song Yingwan came here for the first time, it was still green and green, but now the leaves have turned yellow and withered, and time flies by so fast without realizing it.
Xie Ci walked in front and asked Song Yingwan to follow him. The more he walked, the bumpier the road became. Song Yingwan walked cautiously.
Xie Ci paused after noticing it. He didn't say anything, but just slowed down.
When they reached a slightly flat area, Song Yingwan gradually relaxed his vigilance. The Daqingshan Mountains in autumn also had a unique charm, with various colors of red, yellow and yellow, and unknown fruits hanging on some trees. Look. Very pleasant to look at.
She was so lost that she didn't pay attention to the road. Suddenly she stepped on a piece of gravel under her feet and was about to fall backwards if she lost her balance.
