All Heavens Pension started from the fiery era

Chapter 421 421. Fighting for private teacher positions
Yue Wenxuan's newly purchased courtyard has three adobe houses. He lives in the east room, while Yue Hongying and Gu Bingxue choose to live in the west room.

In the middle is the main room, which is used by locals as a kitchen and dining room.

There are two large stoves on the east and west sides of the main room. Each stove has a large eight-yin pot. These two large pots are usually used to steam buns and stir-fry vegetables.

It is said that firewood and rice are expensive when you are not a family member. Yue Hongying and Gu Bingxue were very happy when they just moved to a small courtyard. However, after they took over the task of cooking, they realized that life was not easy.

After communicating with the aunt and the fourth aunt, they realized that if they want to live a good life, there are many ways to save even the firewood they use daily.

There are no trees that can be cut down casually in the plains, and the firewood used for daily cooking is also very tight. If you are not frugal, it will not be enough.

Moreover, we need to be more frugal in spring, summer and autumn in order to leave more wood for heating in winter.

Although Dahe Village is located in the north and has very cold winters, rural people cannot afford coal, and they only rely on the heat from firewood for cooking in winter. Even if there is a heated kang, it is not very hot.

The main reason is the lack of trees in the plain areas. The little firewood distributed throughout the year is only enough for daily cooking, not enough for heating.

There are fruit trees in Dahe Village, and each household is assigned some pruned branches. Compared with farmers in other villages, the amount of wood used is already very enviable.

Just after moving, the first problem that Yue Wenxuan and his three people faced was that there was not enough firewood for cooking.

In the past, all the wood specially allocated to the Educated Youth Institute in the village has been burned. Now the Educated Youth Institute uses wheat straw just allocated during the summer harvest for cooking.

There wasn't much wheat straw in the first place, and Yue Wenxuan was too embarrassed to move the three people's share when he moved.After all, it's not worth much money, so it's hard to make too precise calculations.

But firewood is indispensable for daily cooking. For the time being, the firewood used these days is supported by my uncle and fourth uncle.

The two families didn't have much firewood, so he couldn't keep asking for it.

There was no other way, Yue Wenxuan could only use his money ability.

There is a furniture factory in the county with a large amount of discarded wood pieces, which are generally allocated to internal staff for use and are also sold to the outside world, but not many people buy them.

Urban residents have coal stamps every month, so the demand for wood is not high. The wood chips from furniture factories are priced on the high side, so naturally they are not easy to sell.

Yue Wenxuan spent 50 yuan to buy two large cars, which are enough for three people for a year, excluding heating.

But he didn't dare to say that he bought it with money. He only said that he got it back through the help of friends.

If he told the truth, I'm afraid even the uncle and fourth uncle would have to call him a prodigal.Knowing that what he did was difficult to be accepted by the villagers, he certainly would not cause trouble for himself.

After spending 50 yuan to buy two large carts of scrap wood, Yue Hongying finally realized the freedom of burning firewood and no longer had to worry about having no firewood for cooking every day.

The problem of wood cannot be created out of thin air, and the quantity is large, so Yue Wenxuan can only spend money to buy it back with great fanfare.

But for other daily necessities, such as food and cooking oil, Yue Wenxuan could take home bits and pieces without attracting attention.

It has been less than a week since the three of them moved into the courtyard, and all the daily necessities are already in place.

Before you know it, the kitchen cabinets are filled with rice, white flour, cornmeal, bacon, ham, and peanut oil.

If there are no guests visiting, the three of them will eat either rice or white flour steamed buns. Peanut oil, ham, and bacon are all used casually. When they are about to finish eating, Yue Wenxuan will always add more in time.

Not to mention Yue Hongying, even Gu Bingxue has never experienced such a good life.

Although the Gu family's previous life was considered very good compared to ordinary people, it was still limited.

Citizens' daily necessities are uniformly distributed. Although the quotas for cadres are larger, they are also limited.

Even with the Gu family's conditions, they can only have enough food and water, and they can eat meat once a week at most.

But what kind of life do the three of them live now?Not to mention that Yue Wenxuan would take home river fish, hares, and wild ducks from time to time. Even if he didn't have these game meats, he would have fried bacon with beans today and roasted eggplants with ham the next day.Don’t let your little life be too beautiful!

Only then did Yue Hongying and Gu Bingxue know why Yue Wenxuan wanted to move out. No one wanted to live in such a good life.

A few days later, as soon as Yue Wenxuan finished work in the morning, he heard that Dong Yumeng was back.

Yue Hongying, Gu Bingxue and Dong Yumeng all had a good relationship. After lunch, they went to the Educated Youth Institute.

After work in the afternoon, as soon as he walked to the door, Yue Wenxuan heard chatter and laughter coming from the yard.

Walking into the courtyard, it turned out that Yue Hongying and Gu Bingxue were talking to Dong Yumeng.

Seeing Yue Wenxuan return, Dong Yumeng took the initiative to greet him: "Yue Zhiqing is off work."

Yue Wenxuan put the hoe in his hand on the corner, "Seeing that you look so good, Uncle Dong should be fine, right? Is he discharged from the hospital?"

"He has been discharged from the hospital and is recovering well."

Immediately afterwards, Dong Yumeng said gratefully: "Thanks to everyone's help, otherwise, I don't have so much money and can't raise enough for the surgery. I really can't imagine what the outcome will be for my father.

My dad got pneumonia. Because the illness lasted for too long and other complications developed, the situation was very critical and required a thoracotomy.

Thanks to everyone's support, I brought enough money to have the surgery. "

Dong Yumeng took out the remaining money and tickets and said: "The money is basically all spent. Now I can only repay you 15 yuan first, and I can only repay you [-] pounds of food stamps first."

At this point, Dong Yumeng showed an embarrassed look, "I can only pay back the money and tickets I owe you slowly from now on. Given my situation, I don't know when I can pay them back."

For Dong Yumeng, the money owed is really a lot. If he wants to pay it all off, even optimistic estimates will take at least two or three years.

Yue Wenxuan deliberately said in a relaxed tone: "Don't be stressed, you know that I am not short of money.

Even if you pay off the money earlier, it will just be a few more figures in my bankbook. With or without this amount of money, it will not have any impact on me.

When you have money in your hands, just pay it back to others first, and then pay it back to me last. "

Having said this, Yue Wenxuan pushed back the money and tickets handed over by Dong Yumeng.

Yue Hongying also said: "Yumeng, we have such a good relationship, just think that I lent you this money alone. My brother didn't lie, he really doesn't lack this money, don't always worry about it .”

Dong Yumeng was naturally extremely grateful to the three people in front of her, but she did not have the ability to pay back the money for the time being.She could tell that Yue Wenxuan and Yue Hongying were speaking the truth. Based on her actual situation, she could only continue to accept their kindness.

"Hongying, Brother Yue, thank you for your help. I really don't have the ability to pay back the money for the time being. I can only pay it back to you slowly after I save enough."

After finishing the business, Dong Yumeng was ready to say goodbye and leave. However, Yue Hongying and Dong Yumeng had a very good relationship, and they were reluctant to let her go, so they decided to stay and have dinner with her.

Today, Yue Wenxuan did not bring back game. Yue Hongying cooked a large plate of fried bacon with green peppers, and made a steamed bun with cucumbers and cornmeal as the staple food.

It's not that she is stingy, this kind of meal is generous enough for entertaining guests.

Yue Wenxuan specifically told the two of them that under normal circumstances, if a guest came to eat, the staple food would be corn flour steamed buns.

Their cornmeal is pure cornmeal and does not contain sorghum flour or sweet potato flour. Normally people would not be willing to eat it like this, but it is perfect for entertaining guests.

Although the work value in Dahe Village is relatively high, because there is less land, the food distributed is not much, and it is no better than other villages in terms of filling their stomachs.

In the past, educated youths enjoyed the treatment of educated youths. Before the grain distribution, they received food stamps from the resettlement office, which naturally had enough to eat.

But after this summer harvest, they will enjoy the same treatment as the villagers. If there are no food stamps from the resettlement office in the future, the yearly rations will definitely not be enough.

Without support from their families, the educated youth would have gone hungry, and would have to learn how to save food in the future.

Educated youths also understand this. Today’s food is much worse than before.Dong Yumeng is almost the one with the worst conditions among the educated youth. For such a meal, he is only surprised and will never dislike it.

Yue Wenxuan's energy is limited and he cannot change the overall living conditions of the Educated Youth Home, but he can still occasionally call the educated youths with whom he is close to have dinner together and give them a toothpaste.

Compared with the beginning of spring, farm work in summer is much harder.

There are many farm tasks in summer, and the most important one is weeding. After weeding, weeds will grow back, and this process must be repeated continuously.

In summer, the highest temperature is close to [-] degrees. Weeding under the flaming sun will soon make you sweat.

This kind of farm work is not necessarily tiring, but working under the sun, even if the workload is not large, can make people dizzy over time.

Gu Bingxue has been pampered since she was a child and has never suffered such hardship. Even with the experience of summer harvest, it is still difficult to get used to it.

Yue Hongying works in the shade of a tree. It is not much different at other times. In summer, it is especially enviable. After all, she does not have to be exposed to the sun. This advantage alone is enough.

After being exposed to the sun all morning, Yue Wenxuan had just finished work when he was called to the uncle's house by Hongmei.

Although he didn't hunt game today, he still picked up a piece of bacon from the cupboard and took it to the uncle's house.

When she entered the house and saw a large piece of bacon in Yue Wenxuan's hand, the aunt's eyes were full of joy, but she complained:

"You're right here, why are you carrying something again, and it's such precious bacon?

You would bring over the game you caught from time to time. In the past six months, the house has been full of fish and meat, and there is no shortage of oil and water, all thanks to you.

I know that hunting is your special skill and you bring game to your door, so I won’t talk about it. But apart from these, don’t bring other things home, otherwise your uncle will criticize you again. "

Yue Wenxuan put the bacon in his hand on the pot table casually, "My former colleague sent this to me. I think this piece of bacon is quite fat, so I brought it over so that my uncle can have a taste."

This piece of bacon is smoked, which is different from the way we cook it. I don’t know if my uncle likes the taste. "

"Such fat bacon must be delicious. As long as it's meat, your uncle will like it."

After saying a few words to the aunt, Yue Wenxuan entered the room.

After sitting down, the uncle said straight to the point: "I called you here today because I have something important to discuss with you.

Teacher Qin from our village primary school originally planned to get married in the autumn, but the man suddenly moved the date to next month.

According to our rules, after a girl marries to another village, she is no longer suitable to continue to be a teacher in her own village.Moreover, the village where Teacher Qin married was a bit far away, making it inconvenient to go back and forth, let alone. "

Yue Wenxuan immediately understood what the uncle was thinking, "You mean that our family can fight for this teacher's spot."

"Yes, you and Hongying both graduated from high school, and it is more than enough to be a primary school teacher.

If other educated youth want to fight for this position, the villagers in our village will definitely not agree. After all, there are still a few young people in our village who have graduated from high school, and it is not their turn to compete for such a good thing.

But you and Hongying are our own people. If you two want to fight for it, the other villagers won't be able to tell you.

No one from Party Secretary Wang's family or Accountant Li's family is fighting for this quota. If you want to fight for it, just treat them both to a meal in the next few days. They will definitely not object. "

There was nothing to think about. Yue Wenxuan immediately said: "I have a good physique and I don't feel tired after working for these few months. Let's give this position to Hongying.

Hongying became a primary school teacher, and the vacant position was suitable for Bingxue to take over. "

The old man puffed his pipe and said, "Okay, that's it.

Gu Bingxue's background was not very good and she was not qualified to compete for a teaching position, but the position in the Fruit Tree Team was not sensitive, so even if others knew about her background, they would not say anything. "

Because Yue Wenxuan specifically greeted a few village cadres, Gu Bingxue's background was only known to them and was not deliberately announced to the outside world. Other educated youths did not know about it.

Although the village cadres have not announced Gu Bingxue's parentage to the outside world, if there is a problem, there is a problem. No one dares to cheat in this regard, and not publicizing it to the outside world is the limit they can do.

But if there were any good jobs that needed competition in the village, Gu Bingxue would definitely not be considered.

For example, for the position of primary school teacher, even if Yue Wenxuan was willing to take charge of it, the village cadres would not agree with him pushing Gu Bingxue to this position.

Even if it is a position in the Fruit Tree Team, under normal circumstances, Gu Bingxue is not qualified to join it.

But who allowed Yue Wenxuan to have this relationship? Not to mention that Yue Jinhai was his uncle. Under his deliberate relationship, Party Secretary Wang and Accountant Li also had a very close relationship with him. When the problem was not serious, they could start a small The door of convenience is still available.
