Scavenging wasteland in the last days: I have fields, cattle and a villa

"How many patterns can you try with these building blocks? How about a competition between two people? Whoever wins will get a reward?"

A pile of bricks lay on the ground in a mess.

Even if Jiang Yuan looked at the finished picture in the space, she couldn't put together a large villa at all.

But isn’t it a good way for children to pass the time? It’s also a lot of fun and can develop your brain power.

"Is this a new game that my sister-in-law came up with?"

Lin Ran looked at the messy blocks on the ground expressionlessly, with a cold expression.

But that look was very wise, as if he had discovered something in it.

"That's right. I figured out the pattern, then chopped it up and scrambled it before putting it together for you."

In order not to reveal her secret, she could only make it up like this.

That’s how the puzzle started in the first place anyway.

"Whatever picture my sister-in-law wants, just make it directly. Why does it have to be so complicated?"

But Lin Ran didn't understand.

Isn’t it good to have a complete picture?

Disrupt and try again? Isn't it mentally retarded?

……

Jiang Yuan's face turned dark when she asked.

They don't understand the joy of feelings.

That's right, these were originally invented to pass the time.

But how can people nowadays have so much free time?

She smiled awkwardly.

"But it's good to use your brain more. My sister-in-law's idea is very good."

The next second, Lin Ran, who despised her, actually agreed with her idea.

Then he squatted on the ground, took the blocks and started to put them...

Have you ever seen building blocks played at double speed in marketing videos?

Lin Ran was almost like a robot. Without even raising his eyelids, he held the building blocks in his little hands and started assembling them.

Lin Qian on the side didn't even have the chance to intervene.

twenty minutes.

The 'villa' designed by Jiang Yuan has already been built.

That's it?

She put so much thought into it, just for twenty minutes?

It was a wrong payment after all.

"It turns out that my sister-in-law likes this kind of house."

Lin Ran stared at the house for a while, with an expression as if he had read Jiang Yuan's thoughts.

I'm not, I don't have it.

Jiang Yuan has not recovered from the shock, it is simply inexplicable.

After being together for so long, why didn't she realize that Lin Ran's mind was so crazy?

"In addition to a house, you can build something else, so don't be too rigid."

She could only bite the bullet and smile bitterly, directly disrupting the house that Lin Ran had put together.

"This is a test of how many patterns you can put together."

A stinky kid is really hard to coax.

If you want to play like this, what else can you do for fun?

Jiang Yuan complained silently.

"Second brother, I want a rabbit, can you make one for me?"

Lin Qian, on the other hand, looked a little more normal and fully understood the 'mystery' of the building blocks.

Jiang Yuan retreated silently, leaned back on the recliner and covered herself with a blanket. In order to avoid embarrassment, it was better to close her eyes and pretend to sleep.

Let's forget about having fun for the two children.

What the children of her time liked may not be the children of this era.

Originally she wanted to get a slide at home, but looking at the situation now, the two children might suspect that she likes to play.

But what do children of this age do?

There seems to be no school in the slums, right?

She was so lost in thought that she almost fell asleep.

But was woken up by a knock on the door.

"It's the patrolman."

As soon as she opened her eyes, Uncle Luo had already walked in from the door.

Again?

"Isn't it time to pay protection money yet?"

She was a little confused.

"Of course not. At this time of year, it should be for the two children."

The words "protection fee" amused Uncle Luo, and he explained with a smile.

for children?

Jiang Yuan didn't understand even more.

But the patrolman always means no harm when he comes, so of course he should be invited in immediately.

There was no tea at home, so hot water should be provided. Jiang Yuanma slipped up and boiled water.

She is a water superpower and has registered it with the patrol, so she generously feeds them water from space springs.

I just didn't expect that this time it would be a familiar face.

Officer Zhang Liang and Officer Xiao Wang were the ones who applied for the special protection mechanism for Jiang Yuan last time.

The two of them wore thick black down jackets that covered them from head to toe. They took off their hats only after entering the house.

Then he showed a surprised look, until he saw the fireplace, he seemed to understand everything.

"No wonder your house is warm."

On such a cold day, it’s natural to get close to the fireplace when you see it.

Jiang Yuan simply moved the table to the fireplace.

"Officer Zhang, are you still coming out in such a cold weather? Is there something important?"

It was freezing outside and the road was rough.

"It was supposed to be something that should be done after the rains, but this year it has been brought forward. We have been busy for a long time. The approval for compulsory education for the poor has only been approved in the past two days, so I will send it to you first."

It's warmer in this room. Zhang Liang came here for the second time. He also took vegetables from others when he left last time, so it was much warmer.

But Jiang Yuan didn't quite understand what he said.

But there was no rush, Officer Zhang would definitely make it clear, so she responded with a smile.

As he spoke, he took out a notice of 'Compulsory Education for the Poor' and two things similar to recording pens from his bag.

"When your two children reach the age of compulsory education, the two children's names must be signed on this notice..."

Compulsory education? Jiang Yuan was still a little confused after hearing this.

I took the notice to see what happened.

This was similar to the nine-year compulsory education in her era. The government distributed free study materials, including video explanations and handouts, and you could also take notes.

It includes language, basic mathematics, astronomy, geography, history, etc.

The knowledge is very rich. As long as you finish it, you can reach the level of high school graduation. However, the current compulsory education is more practical. Compared with theoretical analytical philosophy and understanding the thoughts of great men, it pays more attention to food, clothing, housing and transportation.

House building, clothing making, wilderness survival, etc.

There are also introductory courses dedicated to identifying mutated animals, plants and rough stones.

The courses are all recorded and organized, and they are all stored in a recording pen that is very similar to a recording pen. The recording pen is equipped with a projection function, and you can enter your own identity information to start learning.

It's like a level-breaking game. You have to pass through each level. Only by learning the previous ones can you unlock the subsequent ones...

Jiang Yuan had to lament that in some aspects, the current era is very advanced.

Human culture is always progressing.

Only then did she learn that the government collects statistics on children on probation every year and distributes compulsory education materials.

There are no schools in the slums, so self-study is the mainstay.

To what extent you study and how much knowledge you master all depends on your consciousness.

The government provides you with resources but has no obligation to supervise you, spur you, and force you to become stronger and survive.

It's just that Jiang Yuan was a fool before and had no memory of this aspect at all.

Jiang Yuan breathed a sigh of relief because of the lack of differentiation in compulsory education.

Otherwise, she would have been really worried about the future growth of her two children for a long time.
