Chapter 71 Grain sharing

“Well, these are really not worth much. You helped me. This is my intention. Please don’t dislike it.”

Wei Lan's eyes were crooked, and she saw that the sky was getting darker and darker. She waved her hands to a few people, "The work is almost done today, I'll go back first!"

With the basket on her back, she turned around and ran quickly.

Ye Feng seemed to notice that she was in a good mood, raising her hair high and flowing like that.

Li Jiandang picked up the shovel and left without saying a word.

Gu Yang and Gu Chao cleaned up some more before slowly walking back.

On the way back, Gu Yang sighed: "I can't understand these dolls from the city."

"Don't think too much, it's just her wish." Gu Chao's voice was calm. He took the shovel from Gu Yang's hand, stuffed the can in it, "Take it back to my sister-in-law."

Gu Yang disagreed, "Sister Lan and grandma haven't had meat or fish for a long time. The eggs last time..."

Before he could finish speaking, Gu Chao said: "Special circumstances, special arrangements."

The next day, Gu Yang was transferred to work in another place. Working with Wei Lan was an aunt in her forties, surnamed Zhang. She was not tall but had a somewhat strong figure and a smile on her face. He is very polite to Wei Lan and works quickly.

"There are four or five bean seeds in each hole. First grab a handful of plant ash and then throw the bean seeds in." Seeing that Wei Lan had never done this job before, Aunt Zhang put down the **** and taught her patiently. After Wei Lan learned how to do it, she continued to dig small holes. .

 One dip with the **** will reveal a pit, and five dips will reveal a neat row of small pits. At first glance, it is a sign of experience.

Wei Lan looked away. She carried a small bucket filled with plant ash and bent forward. Every time she scattered a handful of ash, she took out the bean seeds from the small basket on her waist and threw them into the pit.

 At the beginning, I was not sure about the quantity, but gradually I got a feel for it and I couldn’t make any mistakes.

 Compared to pulling up rice stubbles two days ago, sowing bean seeds is really not tiring. Even though my back is a little sore and the grass and trees are gray, Wei Lan doesn't feel dirty either.

You must know that when she was herding cattle some time ago, she saw someone grabbing dung with bare hands...

Wei Lan shook her head and did not dare to think further.

After scattering two buckets of ashes, Wei Lan took advantage of the gap to load the ashes and went to the pool to wash her hands and eat a sweet potato. She originally wanted to save it for lunch, but she didn't expect to be hungry now.

There have also been changes in the educated youth spots in the past two days. It has been a month since they arrived. When they first arrived, they had already finished the food provided by the brigade. Yesterday, the production team leader and the brigade team leader called them over and told them bluntly that this month's points Food is divided according to work points.

Those with more work points get more food, while those with less work points get less food. As far as she knows, among the educated youths, only Yu Tingyi and Fan Zui have enough food. Each person has twenty-seven kilograms, of which twenty-two kilograms of coarse grains. Five pounds of fine grain. They exchanged these five kilograms of fine grains with the brigade for coarse grains. One kilogram of fine grains can be exchanged for three kilograms of coarse grains. Otherwise, how can they still eat enough with the amount of work they do every day?

The ones with the most were Fan Zhui and Yu Tingyi, who weighed in at twenty-seven kilograms before changing to coarse grains. Apart from them, the minimum was eight kilograms and the twelve kilograms.

It's an honor that Wei Lan is the one with the least eight pounds, of which seven pounds are coarse grains and one pound of rice is fine grains. Even if the fine grains are replaced by coarse grains, it is not enough for a month.

Wei Lan still had money and tickets in hand. Li Hong, the production team leader, said that he could exchange grains with commune members to buy grains, so Wei Lan didn't panic. Instead, the educated youth ordered other people. One by one, when they saw the grains received this month, they Almost fainted.

The entire educated youth community has lost its previous cheerfulness and warmth. Everyone didn’t speak when they met. At first they cooked a big pot of rice together, but now everyone has their own share of the food.

Some people have more food and some have less food. Those with more food can eat three meals a day as usual, while those with less food can't wait to eat one meal a day.
