It was the autumn harvest again, and the people of the People's Army-ruled areas welcomed the autumn harvest with a smile. This was probably the second so happy autumn harvest in their lives, and the first one was last year.

In Wangshan Village, Sihui County, Zhaoqing City, Li Er looked at the crops that were about to be harvested in the fields, and his face was filled with folds.

Last year was the first year that Li Er's family obtained their own farmland. When the first autumn harvest came, Li Er was also very happy. After harvesting the grain, Li Er and his wife discussed for several days, thinking about selling part of the grain to buy some things back.

However, Li Er was a little worried about the People's Army. Li Er was a low-level ordinary person who didn't know a big word. He didn't know what emperor was not an emperor. But he knew that the government had existed for so many years. Li Er was worried that the government would make a comeback and snatch the fields in his hands.

In this case, Li Er did not dare to sell too much of the harvested grain and store more grain to prevent accidents.

In a blink of an eye, a year has passed, and Li Er's concerns have been greatly reduced.

There is a lot of rain this year, but the People's Army has been building water conservancy facilities in various places, and the people who have more free time are also digging canals in the fields, which makes the Li Er family still have a good harvest this year, which is slightly worse than last year, and it is also a good harvest.

Li Er and his family were busy harvesting food. While they were busy, Li Er and his wife were already discussing what the food they harvested this year should be used.

The harvested food must be kept with enough food for the family. If the remaining food is sold, sell it. Then buy some fabrics and go home, buy some fish, meat and so on.

After the autumn harvest last year, many families in Wangshan Village repaired their houses and even had new houses. After the autumn harvest this year, Li Er also planned to repair his own house. After the autumn harvest next year, he could build a new house in his own yard. It was really crowded for two adults and two children to squeeze into the same house. Li Er also wanted his wife to have more children.

Of course, the more children the better. As long as they can afford it, Li Er hopes to have more children. He is just a farmer, but Li Er wants to have a high official among his children, and the old Li family will flourish.

A child has a small chance of becoming a talent. With more children, the chance of becoming a talent also increases.

Most men in Wangshan Village have similar ideas to Li Er. If the family can have a full meal, they will have more children. I hope the next generation can become a talented family and glorify their ancestors.

If the people in Wangshan Village had almost no land of their own under the rule of the Ming court, they could only rent land from landlords to make a living and live a life of hunger and fullness. In this case, no family dared to have more children. If they gave birth to more children, they would starve to death. They might drown directly after giving birth to children, and poor families could not bear too many children.

It had just been more than a year since the poor life, and the Li Er and his family had just welcomed the arrival of the two autumn harvests. In each good year, Li Er and his wife were smiling. However, the smile in the past was bitter, and the harvest was a bumper harvest. Most of the food had to be handed over to the landlords and the government. The remaining food was not enough for the family to eat a year.

Fortunately, the poor days were over. After owning his own farmland, two consecutive farmlands came, which made Li Er have many plans in his mind. The two most important plans were to open up more farmland and the other was to have more children.

There is no fear of not being able to afford to have children. The People's Army said that every five years, the fields will be divided again, and the number of adults and children in the family will be divided as much land as possible. The more people there are, the more land you get, and you will not be afraid of being hungry if you have children.

However, the fields are limited, but the population can continue to increase, and in the end there will be insufficient land distribution. Fangnan has already made preparations to encourage land reclamation. In addition, with the development of industry, factories require a large number of workers and the population is transferred to cities, so they no longer own land, alleviating the problem of land limited, etc.

The good days have arrived, and Li Er and his wife have not forgotten that this good days were brought by the People's Army. Since this year, Li Er has added a catchphrase. When talking about many things, Li Er will say "Thank you to the People's Army."

"Thanks to the People's Army, we can have our own fields."

"Thanks to the People's Army, we can only have a full meal now."

"Thanks to the People's Army, we don't have to be bullied by the landlord and his dog-legged."

...

The People's Army fought with the Ming army again around the autumn harvest last year. After the autumn harvest, many ordinary people took out part of the food they harvested to the People's Army and supported the People's Army with their own practical actions. They hoped that the People's Army could block or defeat the Ming army so that they would not return to the hard days of the past.

Li Er also took out some of the food he had harvested from his home and sent it to the People's Army with his fellow villagers.

Every time the news of the People's Army defeating the Ming army reached Wangshan Village, Li Er and the villagers of Wangshan Village were so excited that they were all unrecognizable. They were ordinary people who knew that everything they had obtained today was brought by the People's Army. They were already bound to the People's Army and they hoped to continue to win.

There are many young people in Wangshan Village who participate in the People's Army. Li Er is no longer young and has his wife and children. Li Er will not join the People's Army. Li Er thought that when his eldest son grew up, he would send his eldest son to join the People's Army, adding strength to the People's Army's defeat of the Ming army, and also find a way for his eldest son to advance.

The autumn harvest is over. Now Li Er’s favorite thing is to sit next to the harvested grain, look at bags of grain, smell the smell of grain, and feel a sense of satisfaction arises naturally.

They had never owned so much food before the People's Army, but now they can own it. In the future, they may be able to harvest more food every year in the autumn harvest. Li Er likes this feeling.

"Will you send food to the People's Army this year?" Suddenly, Li Er thought of a question.

Not only did Li Er think of this problem, but the people in Wangshan Village all thought about this. Many people wanted to continue to deliver food to the People's Army. However, before they started to take action, the matter was stopped. The People's Military Government was also worried that the people would send food again, so they notified the village chiefs of each village and asked them to prevent the people from delivering food to the People's Military Government.

The People's Army is not short of food. The delivery of food to the People's Military Government will instead affect the progress of various affairs of the People's Military Government.

If you cannot deliver food to the People's Army, Li Er and other ordinary people don't know how to support the People's Army.

Life has to continue. The grain harvest for two consecutive years made Li Er feel that his life would get better and better. Two years ago, Li Erke never thought that one day he would live a good life. It felt like he was dreaming.

I woke up from my dream and it turned out that everything that happened was true.
