By the time it was almost dinner time, everyone had dispersed and the house was finally quiet.

In addition to building a pig farm, we also discussed the matter of the village primary school.

Now that we have supporting teachers, we can free up three rooms in the original production team and use them as temporary classrooms.

What's more, the new teacher arranged to live and eat at the old man Liu Shikui's house, which happened to be the old couple, so it was more suitable.

After seeing off the guests, Liu Qingshan saw his eldest brother-in-law coming out of the warehouse with a stack of manuscript paper in his hand.

This is also Gao Literary's habit. When there are too many people at home, he will take the initiative to go to the warehouse to create so as not to be disturbed.

Liu Qingshan then greeted: "Brother-in-law, I have two letters from you, and I brought them back."

Gao Wenxue pushed up his glasses and nodded: "I've finished writing Shan Xing's novel. Please look back and give me your comments."

"But, I don't know what to write in the next novel?"

The two chatted while walking, and after entering the house, Liu Qingshan said: "Brother-in-law, now the whole country, from rural areas to cities, is promoting reform and opening up. Novels in this area should be very promising. I heard that Lu Yao is preparing

A big book called "The Ordinary World"."

"Sanfeng'er, I think so too."

Gao Wenxue nodded, then scratched his head: "I don't even know what the outside world has become like in the past two years."

This is a problem. Writers have to go out to collect ideas on a regular basis. If they blindly work behind closed doors, their achievements will definitely be limited.

Logically speaking, I should ask my eldest brother-in-law to go out for a walk, but I really don’t have the spare money right now.

After thinking for a while, Liu Qingshan said: "Brother-in-law, let's wait a few months. When our greenhouse vegetables are sold for money, you can go to the Chuncheng Automobile Factory to stay for a while and accumulate writing materials."

Gao Wenxue picked up the letter on the cabinet cover and said, "Sanfeng'er, you don't have to run so far. Aren't the changes that are happening in our village the best material?"

Yes, this writer has a keen eye.

Liu Qingshan gave Gao Wenxue a thumbs up, and then saw his eldest brother-in-law put a letter into his hand: "This is yours."

I almost forgot, there is a letter from me.

Liu Qingshan tore open the envelope, took out two pages of manuscript paper, glanced at the handwriting on it, and couldn't help but smacked his lips: "Brother Fei's handwriting is so delicate, why does it look like a girl's?"

Looking at the signature again, Liu Qingshan couldn't help but be stunned. She was really a girl. Who is this "Li Xuemei"?

I remembered, Li Xuemei, isn't she the female nurse who likes to glare at people with her big eyes? What kind of letter did she write to me?

With doubts, Liu Qingshan started to read the letter. At first, it was called "Comrade Liu Qingshan", which was very formal.

He quickly finished reading the letter and put down the letter with a strange expression on his face.

In the letter, Li Xuemei said that after learning about Liu Qingshan's deeds, she was greatly touched and decided to learn from Liu Qingshan. While she was young, she worked hard to learn foreign languages ​​and become a translator in the future.

As for the correspondence address, I got it from Fei Ge and the others.

In addition, it was also mentioned in the letter that Mr. Thomas has also returned to China, and I heard that he is going back to develop new models or something.

Unexpectedly, never expected that if I didn’t pay attention, I would become an example for others to follow.

Liu Qingshan felt a little happy in his heart. After all, it was a wonderful feeling to enjoy the admiration of others.

So he picked up his pen and wrote a reply: Comrade Li Xuemei, hello...

This letter is of course mainly for encouragement. By the way, I will also introduce the method of learning foreign languages ​​to prevent the other party from taking detours.

Finally, she mentioned it by the way, hoping that she could urge Fei Ge, Gangzi and others to learn Russian together, and they might be able to make great achievements in the future.

He wrote three pages eloquently, and he didn't finish until the fourth boy called for dinner. He would mail it to Li Xuemei when he goes to the commune.

Dinner was cornstarch porridge and eggplant sauce. Because oil was added when frying, the eggplant sauce was quite fragrant.

Liu Qingshan was really hungry, so Hululu grabbed a big bowl of porridge and was about to fill it up again when he saw the door of the house being pushed open and several little kids coming in.

The leader of the four tigers held a small broken pot in his hand. Most of the pot inside was filled with crimson earthworms. The four tigers asked expectantly:

"Brother Qingshan, do you still want to collect the crickets?"

"Collect, of course. Where did you dig so many?"

Liu Qingshan filled up another large bowl of corn porridge. This thing did not resist hunger. After eating it and running around twice, his stomach was empty again.

Er Mangzi rushed to report: "No need to dig. It has rained these past few days and earthworms have come out. You can catch them by just grabbing them."

Damn it!

Liu Qingshan slapped his thigh hard and ran to the backyard without even bothering to eat.

He forgot about this. Although earthworms like a dark and humid environment, they should not be too wet, otherwise they will not be able to breathe in the soil.

The earthworms in my two ponds must have been soaked long ago. Since the earthworms cannot climb up in the ponds, they will all be soaked to death!

"Sanfeng'er, come back. The pond for raising earthworms has been covered for you a long time ago!"

It was the eldest sister who understood him and shouted, and Liu Qingshan stopped.

However, he still decided to go and take a look, and by the way, he also scattered the earthworms that the children had recently caught.

When I arrived at the back garden, I saw that the two ponds for raising earthworms were indeed covered with plastic sheets to protect them from the rain.

As for the ones that have been dug but not built, they have become ponds, which are probably suitable for raising fish.

After scattering a few pots of earthworms, Liu Qingshan happily returned to the house and said seriously: "Today, I would like to give verbal praise to Comrade Liu Jinfeng. Her dedicated behavior for the public is worthy... Oops, don't twist your ears.

pain."

The group of snot-nosed kids in the room were all laughing. Liu Qingshan then remembered that he hadn’t exchanged candy for anyone yet. The most important thing was that he had no candy. How about giving it on credit first?

If you do this, the children will lack motivation.

Just as they were thinking about it, Cai Feng and Shan Xing took out the paper bag from their pockets and pulled out a small green slice. The fourth child also said: "Exchange this for earthworms. It's called chewing gum and it's delicious."

.”

Isn’t this Green Arrow?

Liu Qingshan blinked twice and figured it out. It was probably Teacher Yang who rewarded the two little girls.

This thing is not easy to get now. It is only sold in a few big cities, and they are only sold in stores that specialize in foreign affairs.

Each of these children received a piece of chewing gum, peeled off the outer wrapper, stuffed it into their mouths and chewed it.

"Hey, there's still a cool breeze, it's delicious, it's so delicious!"

The four tigers praised him loudly.

At this time, the little fourth child remembered something and said: "By the way, you should spit out this kind of candy after chewing it. Teacher Yang said it."

"It's so useless to vomit!"

"I just swallowed it all!"

…

That night, Liu Jinfeng took a new set of bedding and went to her grandfather's house to lay it on Yang Hongying. When she came back, she also brought back two boxes of malted milk.

Malted milk, in this era, is considered a high-end nutritional product.

Liu Jinfeng happily made two bowls, one bowl for the four and five phoenixes to drink, and the other bowl she shared with Lin Zhi.

"Sister, where are my brother-in-law and I?"

Liu Qingshan was not very satisfied. It was not because he was greedy for this drink, but mainly because the treatment was so different and he had no human rights.

"Big man, what kind of malted milk should you drink?"

Liu Jinfeng was nagging, but she still picked up the jar of malted milk and prepared to make a bowl for them to try.

"Sister, I'm just kidding, I'll leave you to drink slowly."

Liu Qingshan went over to grab it and put the jar on the cabinet lid again, but the eldest sister gave him a blank look: "You just like to cause trouble."

"Brother, try this, it's so sweet."

Little Caifeng waved her hands. In this era, sweets are the best thing.

Liu Qingshan leaned forward and Shan Xing handed him a small iron spoon. Liu Qingshan scooped a spoonful of air from the top of the bowl, stuffed it into his mouth, and smacked his lips: "Well, it tastes really good."

It made the two little girls giggle, each took a spoonful and forced it into her brother's mouth.

“So sweet!”

Liu Qingshan praised it, but he didn't know whether it was the malted milk that was sweet or the feeling of sweetness.

…

The next day, while Liu Qingshan was having breakfast, he heard someone shouting outside: "Every household, please pay attention. Our Jiapigou Village Primary School officially starts school today. If you have children at home who want to go to school, please move a bench to the brigade!"

Jiapigou is really miserable, there isn't even a big speaker.

"Going to school, going to school!"

The two little girls cheered and were about to go down to carry their schoolbags. Lin Zhi and Liu Jinfeng grabbed them respectively: They have to eat before going to school.

Soon, the two little guys finished their meal and carried their brand new pink schoolbags on their backs. They loved the schoolbags and stationery their brother bought for them.

Liu Qingshan also carried a bench from home and followed.
