But I'm a bit stupid at reading, so you have to help me," Shen Gongqi said.
"No problem, if you have any questions, just come and ask me first," Fang Nuo agreed.
So the two of them decided to study together.
Soon after the first month, the village began to transport all the farmyard manure to the fields.
Fang Nuo didn't go to work at home because the second child was still young and Yaya still needed someone to take care of her.
Shen Gongqi goes out to work for half a day every day, and then comes back to read and study with Fang Nuo.
Fortunately, it had only been a few years since he abandoned the book. He still remembered most of the texts and exercises in the book, so it was not difficult for him to resume learning.
After spring began, the village began to plow the land and plant crops. After Shen Gongqi worked for half a month, the county's transportation team began to recruit people for assessment. He took two days off from the team and went to the county to take the exam. .
The captain knew that he was going there for work, so he didn't stop him and approved a letter of introduction to him.
Shen Gongqi also took Wang Junyu with him this time.
Because he heard what his brother said, this time he hired more than one driver, and also apprentices. He said that the transportation team wanted to expand, and then these apprentices would be able to become full-time employees.
He thought it was all an assessment, so he took Wang Junyu with him.
The relationship between the two families is good, and the relationship between the two of them individually is also good. Shen Gongqi is willing to take this younger brother with him.
The captain's family was very grateful to him for revealing the news about the transportation team's recruitment to their youngest son.
With such an opportunity, even if Wang Junyu failed to pass the exam, the captain and the others would still be grateful to Shen Gongqi.
The two went to the county for two days and returned to the village happily.
Shen Gongqi was hired and officially became a transportation team driver.
Wang Junyu also lived up to his parents' expectations and became an apprentice worker.
Although his salary is fifteen yuan less than Shen Gongqi's, he still gets seventeen yuan a month, plus some subsidy bills.
Shen Gongqi is thirty-two yuan, plus some bills, and there is also meal allowance when going out.
It is not yet known whose subordinate Wang Junyu will be assigned to, but the chance of following Shen Gongqi is currently slim.
The main thing is that both of them are newbies at the moment, and they both need an old person to take them on a few trips to get familiar with the route.
"Daughter-in-law, it's still a week before I go to work. During this week, I also want to visit the county and find a suitable yard as soon as possible. You and the children can also move there early. I want to see you every day. and the child," Shen Gongqi hugged her from behind and said.
"If you can't find it, don't worry. The house in our village is so big, I can live quite comfortably there," Fang Nuo said.
"But after I go to work, I can't come back every day," Shen Gongqi said, with some grievance still audible in his tone.
"Okay, isn't this for family life? I didn't say not to let you buy it. I just said take your time and take your time. At the very least, you have to find a suitable one. Why don't we buy it again?" Fang Nuo said comfortingly.
"Well, I went around a few days ago and wanted to take a look at a few nice yards. I went there again just to discuss the price with the original owner of the house. If it suits me, I will buy it first." Shen Gong Qi said
"Well, then when you go there again, should I give you the money and take it with you?" Fang Nuo asked.
"I'll pick it up on the day I leave for the county. You've worked hard at home these two days," Shen Gongqi said.
"Why do I have to work hard? The two children are very well-behaved. I just cook some food every day and don't have anything to do, so it's not hard at all," said Fang Nuo.
"Then I will dig out the vegetable plot at home later, plant potatoes in it, and then plant corn in the ditch. Then we can go to the county, plant some more vegetables, and then come back a week to take care of it. "Shen Gongqi said
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Fang Nuo didn't have any objections to this. She had land in her yard, but she felt it was a pity to leave it empty if it wasn't planted.
Planting some food in this way will be enough for their family to eat for a long time, and the money for buying food will be saved.
She was looking forward to going to the county.
Because she wanted to transfer her black market business to the county's black market.
After all, she had stored a lot of food in the space, and in the past three years, what she had grown in the space could not reach much on the black market in the town alone.
Every time she sells some, she keeps the rest in the space.
In the afternoon of that day, Shen Gongqi began to plow the ground in the yard, and Fang Nuo went to the cellar to take out the potato seeds and cut the sprouts.
Cut the potatoes with sprouts into pieces so that you can divide each potato into several pieces.
Disinfect the cutting knife with alcohol in advance, and then roll the cut potato pieces in clean plant ash, so they can be planted.
Shen Gongqi also went to another farm to get some farm manure, mixed it with plant ash at home, and first spread a layer in the trench where potatoes were planted, then placed the potato sprouts on top of the manure with the sprouts facing up, and then covered it with soil.
It took an afternoon and a day to plant all the potatoes. Then, corn seeds were planted in the ditches of the potato ridges.
After planting the ground in the yard, Fang Nuo ordered some melon seeds on the side. She planted a dozen of pumpkins, watermelons, melons, bitter melons, and cucumbers.
Just plant them around the wall of your home, and when the canes grow, you can build a frame.
In the yard, before last winter, Fang Nuo made several small fruit saplings from fruit tree branches that he had planted before, and replanted them in the corner of the new house.
After spring comes, the saplings begin to sprout new leaves, and I think there will be no problem in producing fruits this year.
With everything at home packed, Shen Gongqi's vacation before taking up his job was only in the west, so he was going to the county to select the yard he wanted to buy.
Early that morning, Shen Gongqi got up early, took the money that Fang Nuo had given him last night, and went out to the entrance of the village to meet Wang Junyu.
Then the two of them set off to the town together and took the first bus to the county.
The two of them were in the county. They followed the introducer and looked at several yards that he had chosen in advance. Finally, they chose a yard not far from the transportation team. This yard was also not far from the county's public security bureau and was safe. There is a certain guarantee.
The houses in this yard are well preserved. The family who is selling the house are also thinking of selling the yard to get some money to live somewhere else because they want to live somewhere else.
The price they gave Shen Gongqi was five hundred yuan. Shen Gongqi finally negotiated the price, and the other party only charged one hundred and twenty yuan in the end.
The furniture and seats at home were all reserved for them.
Shen Gongqi bought this yard because it was big enough to meet Fang Nuo's request to grow vegetables and raise chickens in the yard.
Otherwise, there are not as many houses in this yard as there are in their village. There are only three rooms and one main room, which is similar to their new house. The bedroom is entered through a small door on the right side of the main room.
