Chapter seventy-ninth

Mingyue of the Song Dynasty http://www./0_1/   The latest work of the great master Xiaoxiaosheng in Xiangnan! He Tiantian didn’t have time to commemorate her love when she fell in her previous life, so she received a mobilization from Secretary Qi to the whole village and began to organize everyone to dig the river (build water conservancy construction), and get out the silt in the river to facilitate irrigation in the coming year. Some places need to increase flood control, and some places need to strengthen...

It is already autumn now and it must be done before winter begins. The construction period is very tight and it takes twenty days.

Ten miles away from Qijia Village, it passes in the morning and comes back in the evening, and eats lunch at the construction site. In addition to providing lunch, you can earn 50 cents and 4 taels of grain every day.

Although this job is tiring, it can make money and make food. Many people are willing to go. Wang Lei and Zhang Qingshan went there last year. Not only can they have enough food, but they can also make some money back. They are very happy.

Secretary Qi organized 150 people in the village and brought them there early tomorrow morning. As for the tools, Secretary Qi and Director Zhao also did statistics, and they were all from the villagers' homes and were brought with them.

After the last general mobilization, everyone was full of fighting spirit.

Except He Tiantian!

Because the distance is not very far, she gets up early in the morning to go to work and walks back at night. Not only is it hard to work, but the road back and forth is also too far. Even though He Tiantian is not happy, she is also among the candidates for the Pihe River.

This time I went to work, not only had quotas for heavy work, but also for cooking or working on the shore, which was lighter.

Secretary Qi was embarrassed to give all these places to his close relatives, so it was He Tiantian's turn to cook.

In a village, there are a lot of things to use for this meal at noon, and it must be cooked well so that everyone can eat well.

Although cooking on the shore is also very tiring, compared to those who work barefoot at the bottom of the river, He Tiantian thinks it is already very good.

Early in the morning, He Tiantian and Qi Xiaoyan followed the large army to work in the Erdaogouzi River section ten miles away.

"Sister Tiantian, it's so far away, I'm tired of walking." Before he could get to the place, Qi Xiaoyan whispered, and it took twenty miles to travel back and forth every day.

He Tiantian smiled and said, "Your father doesn't let you come, you have to come. Now the quota has been reported, and you must not stop going. Besides, everyone is not leaving quickly, so just follow me slowly, and I will accompany you."

Qi Xiaoyan was a little tired, but she wasn't so tired that she couldn't get up, so she just complained to He Tiantian.

"We two are responsible for the meals of more than 150 people today. I wonder if we can get busy?" Qi Xiaoyan looked at the two big pots and steamers used by the production team on the ox cart in front, and was a little worried.

"What are you afraid of? In addition to us, there is Director Zhao. It is said that she is often responsible for such work and will arrange it. We two minions, as long as we are responsible for doing things." He Tiantian comforted, "You are a young man, you must be energetic, and don't worry before things happen."

After listening to He Tiantian's words, Qi Xiaoyan is always encouraged. This is why Qi Xiaoyan likes to get along with He Tiantian, full of positive energy!

When we set off in the morning, it was gray. When we arrived in Erdaogouzi, it was already full of light. In the morning, everyone ate at home casually, and Secretary Qi took the person to the two thousand meters of river channel divided by Qijia Village.

A wooden board was inserted on the ground, with the words "Qijia Village".

"Okay, stop here." Secretary Qi said loudly, "Director Zhao, how many people do you bring to the cooking shed, and someone will deliver food here later."

Director Zhao smiled and said, "Secretary Qi, don't worry, I know how to do all this. You can take people down to work with peace of mind. You must let everyone eat and drink at noon."

He Tiantian looked around and saw that it was still the place where he had scattered the river in his previous life, but this time it was 200 meters longer than before.

This is a big river about fifteen meters wide and seven or eight meters deep. It has shallow on both sides and deep in the middle. There are many withered and yellow aquatic plants inside. Now it is only about three or four meters wide. This river, the main river channel of Taoyuan County, is irrigated from this river every year.

This is also one of the reasons why the commune attaches so much importance to this river.

These work are all divided into various villages. After finishing it early, you can go back early. Make arrangements with the two village cadres, and Secretary Qi personally led people to the river to work.

Director Zhao found two laborers and started building a shed worth more than ten meters. He also found gravel next to him, built two earth stoves, applied mud on the outside, and dried it for a while, and it was ready to be used at noon.

Director Zhao just put two large pots on it, and the commune came to distribute food. At noon, the share was four taels of flour for men, three taels of women, and a big crazy radish and white onion, a little oil, a little salt, onion, ginger and garlic.

"Sweet girl, Xiaoyan'er, you two quickly take the big basin to the stream over there to brush. I want to raise the incision (double)." Director Zhao said, "Brush the basin and carry a basin of water over, which is just for brushing the pot."

"Yes, Director Zhao." He Tiantian and Qi Xiaoyan responded and carried the super large wooden basin to the stream.

The stream is very clear, and small fish can be seen from time to time in the river.

He Tiantian thought to herself that if you have time, you can catch some fish and make soup for everyone to try it out.

He Tiantian and Qi Xiaoyan are all clean and diligent girls. They quickly washed the large basin and carried a large basin of water over.

"Put the water into the pot and leave a little." Director Zhao said, "I want to start serving noodles. Brush the pot. You can carry these steamers over and brush them."

Qi Xiaoyan and He Tiantian worked hard according to Director Zhao's requirements. After a while, they cleaned the steamer as high as ten layers.

"Look, Sister Tiantian, there are fish in the river." Qi Xiaoyan said in surprise, "If we have fishing nets, we can catch them and cook them."

"It's useless today, we don't use the fishing net. After we go back tonight, we look for the fishing net and catch fish tomorrow." He Tiantian suggested, "I just heard from Director Zhao that I would eat white flour steamed buns at noon, stir-fried radish and stew cabbage. If we catch fish and stew some fish soup, we can eat more."

"Yes, fish soup is better than boiled water!" Qi Xiaoyan said, every year when she drove home from the river, her father was very tired and had to rest for a long time before she could take a break. If she could eat better, she might make everyone stronger and recover soon.

When the two of them came back with a large steamer of ten layers, Director Zhao was already kneading and making a date.

"You two go to the nearby forest and find some dry firewood. You two will use it in half an hour. You two move quickly." When Director Zhao saw the two of them coming back, he immediately ordered He Tiantian and Qi Xiaoyan to do things.

Although they are not heavy work, they cannot be idle either.
