Chapter 176 - two years (1)
Early the next morning, Song Zhi packed up the two children and wanted to go through the house over there.
Tao Tao, “You went so early, do you want to be scolded?”
Song Zhi was stunned, “Isn’t this… Xiao Sui and Xing Xing’s first day of wedding today? Shouldn’t we go over and have some fun?”
——He and Tao Tao got married in their hometown, Ruyi Village. At that time, the scene was very big. Almost all the distant relatives in the family went there. Everyone was lively together for three days…
“So what’s the matter with you?” Taotao asked back, “The couple are so loving, what are you doing there? You don’t even think the house here is so small, it’s not like when we got married in our hometown. , that house is so big…”
Song Zhi understood.
Taotao said again: “Look, even my parents must be going to the countryside or on business trips these days! Let’s just go there for dinner every day! Well, today we go to the cafeteria for breakfast, they must be there! Then, let’s go to the park with Hongdou Huangdou today, Fan Heng left so quietly, Hongdou is not happy, let’s go out to play together… It’s good to relax!”
Song Zhi suddenly laughed.
Tao Tao said curiously, “What are you laughing at?”
Song Zhi didn’t say anything, just came over and bit her…
What are you laughing at? It’s not funny either, I just envy the Taotao family’s tacit understanding, that’s all.
Tao Tao likes Song Zhi’s closeness very much.
After so many years of marriage, he is now very good at pleasing her, doing everything according to her liking, and at the same time giving a lot of wonderful fragrance.
But–
The kids are there too!
Tao Tao was ashamed and angry, and pushed Song Zhi away.
Feifei and Momo immediately rushed up, “Mom, mom! I want a kiss! I want a hug…”
The family laughed and made trouble on the sofa.
After a long time of trouble, the family of four went to the canteen of the compound for breakfast.
As a result, except for Xing Xing and Song Sui, everyone in the Bai family was there!
As expected, Bai Zhengqian and Tang Liren each had a small duffel bag at their feet.
Tan Fenghui greeted the Taotao family, “Come here! We’ve already reserved your seats!”
Taotao smiled and led the two children over.
Song Zhi was even more amazed by the unspoken understanding of the family.
Tang Liren asked Taotao, “Today there is beef soup rice noodles! Come four bowls? It’s unprecedented… mung beans, potatoes! Quick, I’ll make four more beef soup rice noodles for your fourth aunt’s family! Run… It’s been bought out!”
Tao Tao knew Song zhi’s appetite, and a bowl of soup noodles would definitely not be enough, so she instructed Song zhi, “…Go and see what else is delicious.”
Song Zhi nodded and followed.
After a while, Mung Bean and Potato came with four lunch boxes filled with soup powder. Song Zhi also bought a dozen meat buns and a dozen fried fruits.
The soup rice noodles are poured with braised beef soup, which is very delicious. The meat buns are very sincere, each one is heavy, with a lot of filling and a good skin… The fried fruit is stuffed with bean paste, the skin is crispy, and the inside is sweet and greasy, it is delicious.
Almost one bowl of soup and rice noodles is enough for the female family members. The meat buns are too much to eat, and the fried fruits are eaten by two people. The rest are all cheap men. After instigating the soup noodles, each person can also get two big meat buns and one fried fruit!
The family eats comfortably.
Tang Liren was full and said to Taotao: “Peach, my father and I have something to do today! I went to the countryside with the working group, and he went to the provincial party committee for a meeting! I’ll be back on Saturday, and your father won’t be back until next week! We are not at home these few days, the red beans will be handed over to you!”
Tao Tao glanced at Song Zhi proudly.
Song Zhi silently praised the Bai family’s tacit understanding again in his heart.
Tao Tao smiled and said, “No problem! Let the red beans live with me and take care of these two little monkeys for me for a few days!”
——The house that Bai Dongsheng was assigned was a two-bedroom apartment: his husband and wife lived in one room, and the three boys lived in one room.
——The house Bai Zhenggan was assigned was a three-bedroom apartment: one for the old couple, one for Xing Xing and one for Hongdou.
Now that Xing Xing and Song Sui are newly married, the family wants to make space for them to get along well alone.
How could Tao Tao not understand?
but–
Tao Tao said, “Dad, Mom, we’ll stay here until the weekend, so we have to go back to Beijing. Song Zhi is going to go abroad, so he’ll have to go over to hand over from his work unit.”
Bai Zhengqian and Tang Liren looked at each other.
Tang Liren said, “Then I’ll be back on Friday!”
Bai Zhengqian pondered for a moment, “I’ll come back on Friday too, and I’ll go again next Monday!”
“Dad, you are working too hard!” Tao Tao said.
Bai Zhenggan frowned, “Your father is not old yet!”
All the children laughed.
Taotao and Song Zhi discussed, “Then let’s buy a ticket for Saturday night, arrive on Sunday, and go back to the work unit to report on Monday.”
Song Zhi nodded.
On this day, Tao Tao and Song Zhi took the children happily in the park all day crazy.
When they returned to Bai’s house, Song Sui was cooking while Xing Xing was sitting on the sofa watching TV.
Tao Tao carefully looked at her sister.
——Xing Xing’s complexion is crimson, the end of her eyes is a little red, and her eyebrows are full of spring. Her face was red, her lips were inlaid with a tooth mark, and her delicate collarbone was also marked with deep and shallow kiss marks.
It was obvious how much Song Sui liked her.
Tao Tao covered her mouth and smiled.
Seeing the fourth sister looking at her all the time, Xing Xing’s pretty face turned even redder, she lowered her head and didn’t even watch TV.
Tao Tao laughed.
Xing Xing couldn’t take it anymore, so she picked up the pillow on the sofa and started a fight with Tao Tao.
Song Sui heard the noise in the kitchen, and quickly ran out with a spatula and apron to take a look, then went into the kitchen with a smirk and continued cooking.
At dinner time, Song Sui brought out the fruits of his labor.
– Braised tofu with pork belly with fresh garlic leaves, fried minced pork with sour beans, fried cucumber with basil, braised eggplant and loofah and egg drop soup.
Four dishes and one soup, but the portion is very large and the taste is quite good.
Bai Dongsheng asked Tan Fenghui to get a few bottles of champagne left over from the banquet yesterday, and filled a glass of soybeans for everyone.
Tao Tao tried a small sip, it was sweet, with little alcohol taste.
But the kids still can’t drink.
Tao Tao shook her head.
Feifei and Momo are wronged Baba.
Potato hurried to get a few bottles of yogurt.
Tao Tao tried it. Although the flavor is quite strong, it is still drinkable.
This nodded.
The potatoes were given a bottle of yogurt to Feifei and Momo each, and the remaining bottle was placed in front of them, and the children were happy.
Tao Tao stared at the drinking bottles on the table.
– The recent political wind has changed.
First, all kinds of struggles were completely stopped, then the college entrance examination was resumed, and reforms were carried out. This seems to imply that everything will get better and better.
Look, it’s only been a long time, the products on the market have obviously become more diverse.
For example, these drinks, how could there be so many varieties before? Even if people in the city eat high-end feasts, men drink white wine, and women drink soda made from flavored saccharin…
Now let’s take a look, there are fruit wine champagne suitable for women, and flavored yogurt specially for children!
Brother Dongsheng raised his glass, “Come on, let’s celebrate, Xiao Sui has finally become a part of our family! I have to work more and complain less in the future, my daughter-in-law will hurt herself!”
Everyone laughed.
Tan Fenghui teased, “It rhymes quite a bit!”
Song Sui and Xing Xing looked at each other.
Xing Xing’s face was red, Song Sui scratched her head.
The young couple were a little embarrassed.
Several brothers and sisters talked about their plans for the past few days.
It was nothing more than that Song Zhi and Tao Tao had already decided to set off on Saturday, and they had to go back to Kyoto with Red Bean.
In addition, the summer vacation is almost over, and both Xing Xing and Song Sui need to go back to school-they will be promoted to sophomores in the second half of the year.
The two were admitted to the same university in the same year, but with different majors. The school is located in the provincial capital of the next province. Xing Xing studied business administration and Song Sui studied financial economics.
For the two of them, the most important thing at the moment is to quickly tidy up their newly bought house, how to decorate, how to arrange, and how to furnish them. Ask to keep it up.
As for Fenghui, she was angry with her daughter before.
Now Hongdou and Fan Heng have broken up. After being sad for a period of time, Hongdou has slowly recovered, and the relationship with his family, especially with Tan Fenghui, has eased.
During this period of time, Tan Fenghui has been in a particularly good mood, and even his appetite has improved.
In this way, the Taotao family spent a few days in Songshi.
On Friday, Bai Zhenggan and Tang Liren came back, and the whole family had a round meal.
On Saturday night, the Taotao family took red beans and went down to the train station surrounded by their family members.
Tan Fenghui explained the red beans carefully, and when you go to Kyoto, don’t cause trouble for the fourth aunt. You must have eyesight and help the fourth aunt to bring her two younger cousins. When I have time, I also go to see Sangu…
Tang Liren over there is also explaining Song Zhi, “…you go abroad, but you must remember the country’s goodness! You must never see the flowery world outside, and then abandon the country that gave birth to you and raised you! Always remember Come on, your wife and children are still waiting for you at home!”
Song Zhi nodded again and again.
Tang Liren asked again, “Is your grandfather’s family abroad? We’re going out this time. Let’s find a relative. I think they’ll miss you too.”
Song Zhi hesitated for a moment, then nodded again.
In the end, Taotao’s family and Hongdou’s family boarded the train back to Beijing in tears.
When they arrived in Kyoto, Taotao and Song Zhi went to see Guan Qingbai, and then went to visit Song Zhi’s teacher, Professor Huang…
After being busy for a while, it was time for Song Zhi to go abroad.
Considering that it might be inconvenient to communicate in the future, Tao Tao and Song Zhi agreed to write their own diaries. When Song Zhi returns to China, the two will exchange diaries. Furthermore, the two insisted on taking a photo every month, so that… everyone would not miss each other’s growth.
Taotao and Song Zhi made a table again, drawing up their study and work plans within two years, and also refined them into three levels: the upper limit, the moderate limit, and the lower limit.
She and Song Zhi agreed that they would compete in two years to see who completed the most projects.
At the same time, Taotao also listed a life plan, one is a survey of personal hygiene, one is a play plan, one is a diet and exercise plan…
This was actually arranged by Taotao for Song Zhi.
According to Song Zhi’s habit, if he leaves her and the child, he has no intention of enjoying life at all. There is a high probability that he will study hard day and night. Only in this way can he relieve his thoughts of her and the children.
This is not to mention going abroad. That is, the two are in the northwest, only 60 kilometers apart, one is in the oasis, the other is in the satellite city… As long as Taotao doesn’t take the children to see him in the satellite city, his single dormitory is simply a decoration, he doesn’t go back to sleep at all, will I have been working in the workshop all the time. When I am tired, I just find a corner to sit and sleep for three or four hours, and then continue.
But when he was in China, no matter what, some assistants would shout at mealtime to remind him to eat and rest. Now that he’s out of the country, who knows him? Who cares about him, if he doesn’t live well, eat and sleep well, no one will care for him.
If your body is exhausted, it’s not good.
At the same time, Tao Tao felt that she should not live up to her youth. She decided that when Song zhi was not at home, she would also save vacations to take her children and friends for short trips in the country…
This life plan, Tao Tao and Song Zhi also each copied a copy, and recorded it separately at that time.
Later, when Taotao was preparing the luggage for Song Zhi, she also put a photo album in it. She has gone through many old and new photos over the years and sorted them by year…
When everything was ready, it was time for Song Zhi to leave.
Song Zhi was extremely reluctant to part with peach.
Several nights before he left, he asked for big white peaches like crazy.
It was only now that Tao Tao knew that his needs were not on the same channel as hers.
He dared to hold back quite a lot at ordinary times? ? ?
But the night before Song Zhi left, he was not like that anymore. He stayed up all night, hugged Da Bai Tao all the time, and kissed Da Bai Tao gently over and over again.
At dawn, Taotao found that his eyes were red and swollen.
Taotao took red beans and Feifei Momo to the airport to see them off.
The two children were extremely reluctant to part with their father, and said in a milky voice that you have to come back soon… It broke Song zhi’s heart.
He held Feifei in one hand and Momo in the other, and explained the two children in detail: Dad is not here, only you two little men are left at home to protect mother, listen to mother’s words, don’t make her angry, more Share the housework for my mother and complete the study tasks assigned by my mother… When I miss my father, Feifei can write a letter to my father, Momo can’t write yet, so I can ask my brother to write it, my father will send you a letter every month (Actually, he had written it in advance and gave it to Taotao. When the time comes, Taotao will show it to the children)…
The two children were also in tears.
Finally, Song Zhi called Tao Tao aside.
Tao Tao was also a little reluctant to leave Song zhi.
Song rank is more reluctant than her.
He hugged her and said with a trembling voice, “I’m leaving… You are not allowed to look at other men.”
Peach: …
“Don’t talk to other men! Because I’ll be jealous!” He said capriciously like a child, “…I don’t hide it from you, I put a lot of eyeliner around you. Xi has it too. I paid for people and they write to me every month to tell me how you are doing.”
“So Bai Taozi! Even if you don’t care about me and don’t bother to write letters, I will know what you usually do!”
He’s not that perverted, and wants to control everything about her.
Mainly because I was too worried that she would get into trouble…
He obtained several envelopes with written English addresses and enough stamps, and gave them to several related people, asking them to write to him every month. Safety.
At the same time, he also left some money for these related people, just in case something happened to Taotao’s mother and son, he was far away, but the related people could help Taotao’s mother and son solve the problem.
Of course Tao Tao also knew what he was like.
She smiled and said, “Thanks to me then! I don’t even know what’s going on with you… What if there is a blond girl over there who pursues you? And in case, your mother-in-law and your grandfather want to give you What about marrying another daughter-in-law abroad?”
“Those are impossible!” Song Zhi said urgently, “I can swear…”
Taotao stopped him, “Come on! The thing I don’t believe is the oath! Song zhi, let me tell me, I’m not afraid of you looking for the mistress!”
“I’m afraid!” Song zhi whispered, “It’s a pity that people can only live for a lifetime, otherwise, I want to be locked up with you…forever, forever!”
uh, this…
Tao Tao smiled dryly, “I don’t agree! I…”
——How can I, the saintess of Mei Zong, only find one furnace?
But she didn’t dare to say it, because Song zhi had noticed something from her expression and was staring at her fiercely.
Tao Tao had no choice but to say with a serious face: “We are all materialists and atheists, how can we have a next life!”
Song Zhi’s expression softened a little, and he lowered his head and kissed her.
When it was time to board the plane, Song Zhi turned around and left.
Taotao sat in the airport with the children and waited until the plane took off before returning with the children.
In the days when Song Zhi just left, Tao Tao was not used to it.
The children got used to it quickly. After all, when they were in Lingxi before, they spent more time with their mother. Coupled with the fact that there are many children in the family compound of the dry house, Feifei and Momo quickly found playmates and became reluctant.
With the company of Red Bean, Tao Tao is not lonely.
Taotao will not go to Lingxi again this year. She will teach at Agricultural University in the second half of the year.
She took the time to find an elementary school for Feifei, and made Feifei, who was less than five years old, honorably become a first-grade elementary school student. Taotao went to the agency kindergarten to sign up for Momo. Momo was two months away from the age of two, so she didn’t meet the requirements for admission, but seeing as little Momo could go to the toilet, eat by herself, and dress by herself… …In the end, Momo also became a student in the kindergarten’s small class.
Feifei and Momo have a place to go, Taotao and Hongdou discussed it…
Now Hongdou has more than half a year of free time, she is still more confident in the college entrance examination, and does not want to go to school for tutoring, but is more interested in social practice.
She told Tao Tao that she wanted to experience different life insights, so she wanted to try out a few different odd jobs, preferably one that should not exceed three months.
Tao Tao appreciates the candid attitude of Red Bean.
——Hongdou is in the rebellious period of youth. What Taotao worries most is that Hongdou has an idea in his heart, but is unwilling to say it. He does it silently and silently.
Now Hongdou is willing to speak out and have a discussion with her, which is good.
The aunt and nephew discussed for a while, and Tao Tao inspected the neighborhood again, and found that there happened to be a children’s welfare home under the administration of the Civil Affairs Bureau near the cadre rest center. Taotao went to Lizi to find a way, and Lili immediately arranged for Hongdou to go to the Children’s Welfare Institute as a temporary worker.
Next, Hongdou went to the children’s welfare home for half-day shifts every day, and the monthly salary was 8 yuan and 50 cents, plus a lunch.
Hongdou is very satisfied. She does this job to experience life, and she doesn’t mind the salary at all.
After the red beans are settled, the Agricultural University is about to start school.
Taotao went to Nongda to lead the teaching task, and she also had to manage the laboratory of the Agricultural Research Institute… She became an unstoppable spinning top!
Every morning, Taotao wakes up early to make breakfast, eats with red beans and Feifei Momo and hurries out. Hongdou went to work at the Children’s Welfare Institute, and Taotao sent the two children to the school and the kindergarten, and then hurried to the school.
Because she received a teacher’s allowance for the first two years, but she has not come back because she gave birth to a child and stayed in the Northwest. Now that she is back, she has to make up for the class hours she owed before, and she also has new class hour requirements.
At the same time, she has to go to the Agricultural Research Institute every day to hold meetings with teachers, brothers and sisters to research projects…
Taotao is in charge of cooking breakfast and sending the children to school, while Hongdou is in charge of cooking dinner and picking up two little cousins. In this way, when Taotao rushes home every day, the two sons have been properly taken care of by the red beans, and they can eat a hot soup and rice.
As for Hongdou, when she was at home, because she was the only girl of her generation in the family, everyone was used to her, and because of the incident with Fan Heng, everyone was a little scared and wanted to lock her up. At home, don’t let you go out, so as not to be abducted by some indifferent people…
It’s completely different now.
Tao Tao treats her as an adult, encourages her to work, and encourages her to take on housework and family responsibilities…
Hongdou immediately felt that she was needed and that her existence was very important!
She likes this kind of life very much, and she is curious about everything when she is working for the first time… When Tao Tao comes back, she will tell Tao Tao about her work situation today, and she will pick up Feifei and pick up When Momo was out of school, how did the teachers tell her about the children’s performance today…
Taotao watched with a cold eye, feeling the changes in Red Bean – from the very beginning, this child had to bring one or two Fan Heng in every sentence, and then slowly repeated it a dozen times a day. Don’t hear her say Fan Heng less.
This proves that it is right to let this child change the environment and find more things for this child to do…
Feifei and Momo also like the new environment.
Because after they go to school and kindergarten, their playmates are precisely positioned as children of the same age group, and they have a common language. Coupled with the reason of tutoring, Feifei and Momo quickly became the most beautiful cubs in the school kindergarten… The teacher was full of praise for them, and other children were willing to play with them…
Tao Tao originally heard from many people that their children were very resistant to schools and kindergartens, so she collected a lot of experience and prepared to use it against the children. Unexpectedly, Feifei and Momo accepted without struggling at all.
At dinner time every day, the family of four chatted and chatted.
After dinner, everyone watched the news broadcast together.
Feifei and Momo couldn’t understand, they could play with toys for a while, but they couldn’t make a sound.
From 8:00 pm to 9:00 pm is the public study time, all people must gather together to study.
Often: Taotao researches lesson plans and professional courses; Hongdou takes out a pen and paper to write her novel; Feifei and Momo complete the homework assigned by their mother…
At nine o’clock, Tao Tao takes care of the children taking a bath, washing their hair and sleeping.
Basically after 9:30, the time for Tao Tao and Red Bean is free.
Hongdou will go back to her room to continue writing the novel, while Taotao will go upstairs to correct the sons’ homework tonight and assign tomorrow’s homework, and then she will write a diary, Write a life plan…
If there is still time, she can read the book for a while.
Speaking of reading, Taotao once again felt the breath of reform and opening up.
For example, those who were still in Ruyi Village in the past, Song Zhi went to the town to buy some books and went home, and they had to hide them. During the day, he didn’t dare to come back in an open and honest way. After dark, he walked the mountain road in the dark and carried the book back.
At that time, all the books he brought back were hidden in the cellar at home.
Every night when everyone was studying together, Tang Liren took the key to open the door, while Bai Dongsheng and Song zhi went to carry the books. After finishing their studies, Bai Dongsheng and Song zhi murmured and moved all the books back to the cellar to hide them, with some dried plums and vegetables on the top… Tang Liren had to wait and lock the door.
Before going to bed, Bai Zhenggan had to check again whether the cellar door was locked.
But those books are obviously normal college textbooks, foreign language dictionaries and so on.
now what?
There are more and more books on the market all of a sudden, and the types are very rich!
Of course, it can also be seen that although many classic ancient books at this time have been reprinted, their content is always lacking, and there are many versions. regret…
But in any case, Tao Tao thinks this is an era of wild and barbaric growth of various cultures.
For Taotao, she is already an adult, she already has her own life goals and direction, and she has firm confidence and will not be easily affected.
She is more worried about the children.
Feifei and Momo were still young and didn’t have the right to choose books. What they read and what books they learned was decided by Taotao, which was nothing.
Tao Tao is more worried that red beans will be badly affected.
However, what makes Taotao feel gratified is that the red beans have both the flexibility of women and the stubbornness of literati.
At a time when popular literature was so… almost vulgar, Hongdou insisted on her fairy tale writing. In order to encourage Hongdou, Taotao asked Hongdou to organize the more than 100 short fairy tales she had created since she was a child. She asked the editor of the publishing house who helped Songzhi publish academic textbooks, and asked the other party to recommend a publishing house for popular books. The manuscript was submitted.
The other party carefully reviewed the manuscript of Hongdou. I heard that Hongdou is only sixteen years old now?
This incident alarmed the leaders of the publishing house, who came to visit Taotao and Hongdou on purpose, and then negotiated the publishing fee.
When the spring of the second year began, Hongdou had already finished her temporary work in a child welfare institution. She also went to the hospital to work as a cleaner for two months, and went to the largest supply and marketing cooperative in Kyoto to work as a part-time worker for two months…
In these units, Hongdou saw the warmth and affection of human beings and the various states of the world in a very short period of time, and couldn’t help feeling very emotional!
She is very grateful to Taotao for her help, and said that these work experiences have given her infinite inspiration.
Not long after, Red Bean’s fairy tale poetry collection was published!
In addition, most of her poems and short fairy tales have beautiful words and profound meanings, which are very suitable for children who have just started to read. The National Primary School Textbook Group has included several poems about red beans…
Red beans are so happy!
The family members far away in Pine City were also delighted!
Taotao asked Hongdou, should she go back to her hometown in Songshi to meditate and write, or follow her to the Northwest?
——Because it’s spring, Taotao is going back to the Northwest to manage her experimental greenhouse.
Hongdou said without hesitation: “Si Gu, I’ll follow you to the Northwest! I found out that I’m following you… I’m really lucky! Look, the three jobs you helped me find really benefited me. A lot! I also want to follow you to the Great Northwest to see… I believe that there will also give me infinite hope!”
Tao Tao smiled.
First, she was vaccinated with Red Bean, and truthfully explained the difficult conditions in the Northwest.
Hongdou was unmoved, “What if there is no water or electricity? When we were children in our hometown Ruyi Village, didn’t we have no water or electricity? I lived in those days, Sigu, with you here, I’m not afraid!”
In mid-March, the aunts and nephews took their children and started a great migration with the rest of the scientific research team.
After three or four days, a group of people finally came to Lingxi County.
Deng Gaoyun and Chen Yicheng were worried about the safety of their teachers and junior sisters, so they simply paid for a transport vehicle to pull Tao Tao and the others, including their luggage, to a scientific research site and to release people along the way.
Tao Tao saw Deng Gaoyun’s experimental greenhouse and experimental field for the first time, and also saw the teacher’s two experimental bases…
Deng Gaoyun’s experimental greenhouse is similar to Taotao’s, but Taotao has just started and has not yet established an experimental field. The teacher’s two experimental bases have been running for several years. The oasis is already lush and green, producing a lot of fruits and vegetables, which can be supplied to nearby units and ordinary people.
It’s really exciting!
Tao Tao is very envious, “I also want to keep up with the pace of the teacher and senior brother as soon as possible!”
Deng Gaoyun said with a smile: “Come on, don’t look at how many years my teacher and I have been working on these greenhouses! Your greenhouses are the speed of the gods! Besides, we only plant trees here, and you still have them. Educating people! Speaking of which, we should learn from you!”
Taotao covered her mouth and chuckled, “Then let’s make progress together!”
Two days later, Taotao finally came to her experimental base – Lingxi Oasis.
Her return made the people in the oasis ecstatic!
The men have all gone to work, not in the village. The women hula all of a sudden and gather around, with cheerful smiles on their simple faces—
“Comrade Bai! You are finally back!”
“Feifei Mom, we miss you so much!”
“Comrade Bai, go and see your greenhouse! We took good care of you, and we didn’t miss anything!”
“Comrade Bai, you have worked hard all the way!”
“Yeah, Feifei has grown a lot taller! Momo has grown up a little too!”
Tao Tao also greeted the women with a smile, and introduced Red Bean to Zhou Chunni.
Zhou Chunni looked at Hongdou in surprise and sighed with emotion, “Oh, it’s amazing, the red beans are so beautiful now! Before, the red beans were only a little bit…” As she said, Zhou Chunni made a gesture, meaning the former red beans tiny.
With that said, Zhou Chunni asked her four children to come over and say hello to Hongdou.
Hongdou also greeted Zhou Chunni and her children with a smile.
She also remembered the appearance of Zhou Chunni in the past, and had to sigh that although Zhou Chunni in front of her had been infected with the wind and frost of the years, her personality and temperament had undergone earth-shaking changes.
In the past, Zhou Chunni had a pretentious and gloomy temperament, and was mean and selfish. The current Zhou Chunni is pungent and refreshing, generous and generous.
However, what really surprised Hongdou was…
Why are the villagers here so warm to her fourth aunt?
Of course, this poor village… also made Hongdou vaguely feel that the days to come may not be so easy.
In the evening, the men in the production team came back from work.
Hearing that Bai Taotao was back, Jiang Hongzhi and Lan Caizhu were both overjoyed and hurried to the scientific research station.
The villagers were so enthusiastic that Taotao wanted to cook by herself, but Xiao Qingjuan rushed to help her. In order not to consume Taotao’s food, she called Niuniu to go home to cook, meaning that she and Niuniu still eat their own food…
During dinner, the villagers simply lit a bonfire on the sandy ground below the scientific research station. The villagers all came here with their rice bowls and had dinner with the Taotao family.
The red beans were distributed to a large bowl of white porridge, which was made by Xiao Qingjuan, and then there was a large plate of stir-fried mixed vegetables, beans, loofah, eggplant, etc. The taste was not bad! Zhou Chunni gave the Taotao family a big pancake and red beans. Spread some fermented bean curd on the pancake, it tastes delicious, and then drink a mouthful of thick and soft white porridge…
Straight and comfortable!
However, Hongdou was still surprised by how much his fourth aunt was loved here.
In particular, the content of the two leaders of the production team chatting with Tao Tao seems to be reporting work.
——How was the culture class competition last year? Who is the champion and who is the champion? Are you a few? very nice! Hey, are you interested in applying for correspondence education? It’s okay, you can ask me if you don’t understand, I stay here for several months every year…
– What was the live tree rate last year? real? not bad! It’s getting better every year! Which area and which tree species have a higher survival rate, have you recorded it? It’s done, then I’ll take a good look tomorrow, let’s improve the nutrient solution, and cultivate the tree species this year, next year will be even better than this year!
—What are you growing in your greenhouse? Do you guys have enough food to eat? I have contacted you a few shedding factories in Kyoto. My opinion is that everyone should work hard for a while and sell the vegetables grown in the greenhouse to satellite cities. The money raised will be used to buy shed cloth, and we will build greenhouses, grow vegetables on a large scale, and sell them to nearby units! Anyway, they have to come every day to fetch water, and then bring back some fresh vegetables every day. Wouldn’t it save transportation costs than sending someone to the town to buy them? Trust me, they’ll agree…
——Brother Jiang, Sister Lan, it’s time to build a primary school in the village. Don’t be afraid, my niece and I will temporarily serve as teachers. Brother Jiang’s education level is also very good, so he can teach. In addition, Sister Chunni and Sister Qingjuan can also teach… My niece and I will teach first. Let’s start!

After a lively dinner, Hongdou probably understood why the villagers here like their Sigu so much.
Because Sigu is really building this village!
From the next day, Jiang Hongzhi and Lan Caizhu began to prepare for the opening of Lingxi Oasis Primary School.
There are two production brigades in the village, with a total of 70 children under the age of 13.
Taotao put forward a request: to have two classrooms, suitable desks and chairs, two blackboards, appropriate amount of chalk, some pencils and workbooks, and she will come up with the teaching materials.
The classroom is fine.

What about a bench and a table? If anyone with a baby at home wants to go to school, they must bring their own table and chairs.

Jiang Hongzhi asked people to dismantle a few wooden boxes, put them together into a blackboard, and then paint them with black paint… After it dries, this is a blackboard!
But–
Chalk, pencils and workbooks, including textbooks cost real money!
The previous villagers have already raised funds to buy soft film to expand the specifications of the greenhouse. How can they still squeeze out the money now?
So worried that Jiang Hongzhi is going to sell his own ration potatoes…
Tao Tao stopped him and prevented him from doing this.
She wrote the contents of a telegram and asked Jiang Hongzhi to go to the city and send a telegram to Cheng Zhujun.
After about five or six days, a passing motorcade brought everything Tao Tao wanted.
There are 50 sets of textbooks for each subject for grades 1 to 6; there are 500 workbooks; a stack of thick letter paper; hundreds of pencils; two large cartons of chalk…
