Zhou Ping heard the knock on the courtyard door, and hurried out from the kitchen to open the door.

Seeing Song Xi and Zhou Yi standing outside the door, he was overjoyed, "Brother Yi, sister-in-law, you are here, come in quickly, Mo Jiaxiang and Sheng Jiahe haven't come yet, so they will probably be here soon."

Now they are used to calling Mrs. Song Xi, and they don't feel embarrassed at all.

"This is the housewarming gift we prepared for you. You can figure it out!" Zhou Yi stuffed the basket into Zhou Ping's arms, and then pulled Song Xi into Zhou Ping's yard.

He had come to help Zhou Ping before, so he was quite familiar with Zhou Ping's yard, but Song Xi came here for the first time today.

Zhou Ping doesn't have a partner, he is separated from the family and lives alone, so the house is not big.

Of course, he was also afraid that his house would be taken away by others in the name of 'filial piety', so he built it to be about the same size as other bachelor's houses.

There is a well in the yard, and next to the well is a pond piled up with stones, where vegetables and clothes can be washed.

There are three very small rooms in the yard, one is a firewood room, one is a bathroom and the other is a toilet. Once you enter the house, it is the main room. The small door on the left is the stove room. There are two doors on the right side of the main room. , the master bedroom is the one entering from the door of the main room, and the second bedroom is the one farther away.

It is not a problem for a family of three to live in Zhou Ping's yard.

"Brother Yi, sister-in-law, please sit down and rest for a while. We can have dinner when Mo Jiaxiang and Sheng Jiahe come." Zhou Ping brought two bamboo cups and called Song Xi and Zhou Yi to sit down and rest.

The bamboo cup is made of big moso bamboo. It is very big and strong. A cup can hold a lot of tea. Song Xi picked it up and took a sip. It was sweet. It seemed that Zhou Ping made sugar water for them.

Song Xi only took two sips before putting down the bamboo cup, got up and walked outside.

Seeing that Zhou Ping had planted her carefully cultivated vegetables in a mess, Song Xi felt her scalp tingle immediately, she rushed over to pull Zhou Ping away, and then pulled up all the vegetables that Zhou Ping had planted.

"Zhou Ping, these vegetables can be eaten after half a month. When eating, remember to pick the outermost big leaves in batches, and keep the heart of the vegetables inside to continue to grow. If you take good care of these vegetables, you will have more vegetables in the future." Too many vegetables to eat."

Song Xi reclassified the various vegetables mixed together by Zhou Ping, and then planted them again.

The trees are separated one by one, row by row, and the arrangement is very neat.

Zhou Ping scratched the back of his head embarrassingly, "Sister-in-law, I understand."

Afterwards, Song Xi picked six places in Zhou Ping's yard, drew a circle with a bamboo stick, and asked Zhou Ping to dig holes to plant grapes, grapefruits, and oranges.

Song Xi came to the well of Zhou Ping's house and brought up a bucket of well water. She quietly added a little spiritual spring water into it, and then asked Zhou Yi to help water the vegetables.

After Mo Jiaxiang, Sheng's family returned to the village, they went to the village to return their bicycles, and hurried to Zhou Ping's house.

As soon as they entered the courtyard, a trace of surprise flashed in the eyes of the two of them. The courtyard of Zhou Ping's house really took on a new look.

"You have what Zhou Ping has, and you can get it at our house after breakfast." Song Xi saw the envy in the eyes of the two gay men, and said.

After they divided today's income equally, they went to Zhou Ping's kitchen to have breakfast.

Breakfast was sweet potato porridge cooked by Zhou Ping himself, shallot pancakes spread with wheat flour, vinegared potato shreds, and ten boiled eggs.

In this era of mountain villages, it is already an excellent treatment.

Before Song Xi came to Ping'an Village, all they could eat were wild vegetable dumpling and wild vegetable soup.

Everyone replaced wine with water, and wished Zhou Ping that he could finally live his own life behind closed doors, and he would be able to eat whatever he wanted in the future, without having to watch others eat.

After breakfast at Zhou Ping's house, Song Xi and Zhou Yi went back.

Mo Jiaxiang and Sheng Jiahe followed them to the past, and Song Xi directly handed them the basket filled with vegetable and fruit seedlings, "Take it back and plant it, manage it well, there will be endless vegetables and fruits in the future."

"Thank you, sister-in-law." After Mo Jiaxiang and Sheng's family thanked each other, they returned to their respective new homes with their backpacks.

He had just had breakfast at Zhou Ping's house, and before going to Mo Jiaxiang's house for lunch, Song Xi closed the courtyard door and stepped into the vegetable field.

I started picking those big vegetable leaves, and before I picked two, someone knocked on the courtyard door.

Song Xi glanced at Zhou Yi who was chopping firewood, told him with her eyes that she was going to open the door, and ran to open the door. She was a little surprised to see Qian Weimin and Wu Zhuhua standing outside with Qian Chuntao.

"Uncle Qian, Aunt Zhuhua, Xiaotao, why are you here?" Today is New Year's Day, and I'm not at home for the holidays, so what's the matter here?

Although Song Xi was confused, he still opened the door and greeted them to go to the main room. Zhou Yi immediately washed his hands and poured three cups of hot tea over.

"Uncle Qian, what's the matter?" Seeing Qian Weimin's hesitant expression, Song Xi couldn't help but speak.

He didn't know what was going on, which made it difficult for Qian Weimin to speak.

Wu Zhuhua glanced at Qian Weimin, and said helplessly, "Xiaoxi, it's like this. The parents of the students in the village felt that two days off a week was too much, so they ran over and asked Uncle Qian, can you change it?" One day off a week?"

Parents are not fools. It is hard work to take care of children, so if you can take one day less, take one day less.

In addition, if you read a day more, you can learn more knowledge, and they also hope that their children can learn more knowledge.

After all, the children missed the time to study, and they are much older than the children who normally enter school, so now they can only catch up.

Hearing this, Zhou Yi frowned. Those parents were really unpopular. His wife was taken up by the children for five days a week, and now she wants an extra day.

Song Xi thought for a while, then nodded, "As long as the children can persevere, of course I can do it here! In this way, I can earn five more work points, so let's start next week! Uncle Qian, please let me know."

Qian Weimin said, "Xiao Xi, several of our leaders sat together and discussed it before, and felt that giving you five work points a day was a bit unfair to you. Our village school is not as good as the commune's school, but We can't let you suffer, we plan to give you benefits like Commune Elementary School, but we don't have tickets, so how about giving you ten yuan a month as a salary?"

"I am very grateful to Uncle Qian for fighting for good benefits for me, but no need, five work points a day is enough, otherwise those who have graduated from elementary school or have studied for a few years, and the villagers who think they can teach and educate people must not I will let it go, and neither I nor Uncle Qian will be able to do it, so let's do it! Five work points are enough for me to eat, and I still have the right to use three acres of sandy land and two barren hills. I feel pretty good."

Song Xi rejected Qian Weimin's proposal.
