Chapter 820 [819] Age of famine 602 more

Chapter 820 [819] Famine Year 60 (2 updates)

Because of the harsh conditions, Ye Huan had a hard time throughout her pregnancy. However, because she ate only a mediocre diet and was thin, even though the months were increasing day by day, her belly was not much bigger. It was not noticeable in spring and autumn, and in summer. Sometimes you can see the protruding belly.

The couple had gone through hardships and hardships, but not many people knew the inside story. Outsiders only said that their family looked nothing alike, and even had different surnames. Ye Huan just smiled and said nothing. What he said to the outside world was that the eldest son was the one he followed. Tong Zhan’s real surname was that of his adoptive father, his second son, and Ye Huan’s daughter. When asked about the third child, Ye Huan smiled and said: “The boy’s surname is Liu, and the girl’s surname is still Ye. "

Reclaiming land in Xinjiang is extremely hard, not only because of the harsh local weather, but also because of the awkwardness of farm tools and the hardness of the land.

The large harvester tractors have not yet caught up with the competition. After all, this is a newly developed area, and it is all made possible by the hard work of the soldiers with hoes and shovels.

They are all eighteen or nineteen-year-old children. It is a pity that they were born in this era. When they are unable to protect themselves, she does not dare to be too high-profile.

You have to say that in the 1980s and 1990s, she started a small business, made some money, and was able to go out and help others. If she did such a publicity thing in this era, she would definitely be reported. After all, everyone's salary is There is a certain amount, so why do you still have spare money to help others? Where does your spare money come from?

Together, the couple has a monthly income of eighty yuan.

Before Ye Huan came, he had saved a lot of things, so he hasn't had the chance to spend anything yet. All food and accommodation are at the regiment headquarters. Every month, the food expenses for their family of four are 30 yuan, which is 30 to 40 pounds. Although the food stamps don't have much oil and water, and the food is not good, they have a lot of miscellaneous grains and can be full, which is already very satisfying.

The summer scenery in Xinjiang is beautiful, but it is a pity that they do not raise livestock here, otherwise the children might have a chance to drink fresh dairy products.

I heard from my colleagues that the Hotan area where Ye Yu is located has already raised cattle and sheep, and every family has subsidies for their children. After all, eating meat seems to be much more convenient than eating vegetables in Xinjiang. However, because the area is large, so The situation in each place is slightly different.

Just like here, if the land is suitable for planting, there will be no grazing. Even if the land is grazed, it will only be within a certain range, not all.

This year, every household has planted vegetables, such as zucchini, tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, etc., in front of their houses. This year, the Youth League has planted watermelons, melons, tomatoes and other vegetables, wheat, and various bean crops. Compared with last year, the varieties are much higher. There is a lot more because there is more land than last year.

The space in front of my house is not small, and I can’t finish the vegetables I grow, so I secretly move them to the space to keep them fresh. When the weather gets cold, I don’t have to worry about running out of food.

The days passed quietly like this, from sunrise to sunset. It was very dull. Everyone was working hard for their own lives. Every day, both adults and children were doing their own things. People think about other things, because the moment when you get home and lie on the kang after work is the most comfortable time every day.

In November 1961, Ye Huan gave birth to her and Tongzhan's first son, Liu Zhengrong, in the clinic of the regiment headquarters. This comes from the famous saying "The majestic red clouds in the west are flat under the sun's feet." Ye Huan hoped that this A child is like a tall mountain, becoming a good man who stands tall and upright.

During Ye Huan's confinement, she didn't bother anyone, because it was Tongzhan who took care of her personally. Whether it was cleaning or taking care of the children, he took care of her. He also cleaned the diapers himself. The previous children didn't have the chance. How about this time? If he had the chance, how could he possibly bother his wife?

Fortunately, Ye Huan's milk supply was sufficient, so there was no problem in feeding the baby. Because her confinement period happened to be during the cat winter, and although there was a heated kang in the room, it still felt drafty, so in order to protect herself from confinement syndrome, she , Tongzhan often thought of ways to block the house.

Because they don’t have to work in winter and there is thick snow outside, even if they don’t carry water outside and bring the snow water in for burning, they can still ensure their family’s water supply in winter. There is no pollution in this era, and the snow water is very clean. It’s okay to eat it.

Ye Huan sat for a whole day this month. Mao Dong, Tongzhan had nothing to do, so he had a chance to have a good rest. After all, the newborn baby is too noisy, and even the little one can't sleep well, especially It was Ye Huan. As soon as the baby fell asleep during the day, Tongzhan would urge her to sleep quickly.

Fast forward to the spring of 1962, Tongzhan and the others started working, and Ye Huan took the child to the clinic.

When the child was hungry, she would feed it. When there was nothing wrong, the teacher would help with it, and she would be busy treating the soldiers.

Of course, buying medicinal seeds from the mainland and the local area has become a daily routine for the couple. Occasionally, she will dry the medicinal herbs she brewed at the regiment headquarters.

In addition, using grain to make wine and using medicinal materials to make wine to scrub the soldiers have become her daily routine.

In the summer of 1962, Ye Yu came to their house to spend the summer vacation with her child in her arms, and brought her many, many stones. From two large baskets of stones, she selected ten or twenty jade stones. Ye Huan was not polite to her sister, but If these stones are sold at a good price in the future, they will definitely be divided equally between the couple.

She didn't waste the remaining stones, so she piled them around the stone nest and formed a stone wall, which could block the wind to some extent.

After Ye Yu arrived, Tongzhan went to the regiment headquarters to sleep. The older one was usually sent to the Yuhong class, and the two younger ones were brought by Ye Yu. When it was feeding time, Ye Huan would carry them there.

During the two-month summer vacation, Ye Yu helped Ye Huan take care of her children. Although she did not serve her sister for the rest of her life, at least she repaid her sister in her own way.

Of course, Ye Huan has also put a lot of effort into food in the past two months. When Ye Yu left, Ye Huan also brought her a jar of medicinal wine that she brewed, plus some precious medicinal materials such as snow lotus, and daily necessities. She clearly wrote down the herbal medicines used for children's colds and fevers according to categories, so that Ye Yu could easily prescribe the right medicine.

How can I say that the ones produced in space are better than those bought from outside?

Ye Huan wanted to go to Hotan, but since she had more children and a younger son, she didn't have as much time as Ye Yu, who had winter and summer vacations as a teacher.

It's too cold in winter, so it's best to come to my sister's place to spend the summer vacation in summer.

It was not that the two sisters had not discussed returning to their hometown, but when they thought about the ten or twenty days of traveling back and forth, the two sisters, who were burdened by their children, did not want to bother. Because it was too far away, they could only send things home. Send money to express your filial piety.

Of course, after things calmed down at home, her brother's parents also sent them things. The whole family was using their own way to protect their family relationship.

When Liu Zhengrong was 11 months old, she was planning to wean off her breasts, but before she was weaned, the familiar pregnancy reaction started.

Her period did not come during the breastfeeding period, and the couple did not use contraception. She knew that pregnancy would occur in this situation, but she did not expect that Tongzhan's body would be so powerful after recovery. She did not know whether it was due to acupuncture or the effect of snow lotus, but Being pregnant again is an indisputable fact.

Looking at the room full of carrot heads, Ye Huan pinched his eyebrows with a headache: "If this continues, how can I get into this class? Do you want me to have two babies in three years?"

Tongzhan was more tolerant, "If it doesn't work out, let's see which sister-in-law can help us. You can give me another daughter while you're still young, and we'll seal the belly and stop giving birth."

"What about having another son? Do you want to continue to have more children?"

Tongzhan smiled heartily: "As long as you give me the baby, I can afford to raise it. It will be lively to have more brothers and sisters. I plan to build an adobe house in the spring of next year. By then, our family will also build one. When the child is older, It’s time to sleep separately, and it’s time for our Liu Hongqing to go to elementary school.”

Ye Huan doesn't want to give birth anymore, "We already have three sons and one daughter. No matter what kind of child you have, you have to accept it. Five children are enough."

If it were left to modern times, she wouldn't even dare to think that she actually had five children.

However, in this era, children are all strong workers. Who has five or six children? She only gave birth to two, which is not a lot. Judging from those who came with their families in their group, who has several children?

Precisely because they have more children and eat more, no matter how hard it is, the couple has to stick out their buttocks and buttocks.

Some women are obviously only in their thirties, but because they have many children and work a lot, they make themselves look like they are forty years old.

Ye Huan also took advantage of not having to be exposed to wind and rain, and she had the golden finger of space, so it seemed that she was well maintained.

If she were more beautiful, she might be the most eye-catching person in the regiment, but because she is not pretty enough, no matter how strong her professional ability is, she does not attract the attention of others, but she likes this, not to be noticed. In this era, such appearance is needed to cover up, so she is very satisfied with her appearance in this life.

Fast forward to the end of July 1963, Ye Huan's youngest daughter Ye Danni was born. She took her sister's name, Ye Danfeng, and both sisters took their mother's surname.

Ye Yu did not come this summer because Ye Yu gave birth to her little daughter Ye Zhiqiu a few months earlier than her.

This year is destined to be festive, and Ye Huan has also fulfilled her three-year wish to have two children, and has been completely closed since then. Now she has three sons and two daughters, what else is she dissatisfied with?

As long as the rest of her life is peaceful and her children live up to their expectations, her life will not be in vain.

Tongzhan and the others also worked hard to build their adobe house before she gave birth, so she spent this confinement in the adobe house.

Different from the adobe houses for singles, the adobe houses like theirs for families and their families have courtyards, two main rooms, one on the left and one in the left and right rooms. The cooking area is a shed that is set up casually, and there is a heated kang in the house. You can cook at home, because they don’t have many opportunities to cook at home, so they all eat at the regiment headquarters. Only during the winter months, those with a family and food can eat at home, and usually they just boil water and so on.

The yard is fenced, and vegetables can be grown. The hut is in the backyard. If nothing else, their family may really settle here in the future.

Age of Famine 50 has been released, but Age 41 has not yet been released, and it has not been approved again.

Regarding the question about [Bingxueren] Children's Shoes, I'm sorry, I can't sing, so I didn't answer your question. As for the ending, it may be too early. After all, there are many short stories, so it's okay to make it longer. You said so

Right? Haha.

This story is being written relatively slowly. I plan to finish it in 100 chapters, which is 300,000 words. It is probably the longest story I have written so far.
