Today, several people from the Xiao family were not on the same land as Meng Xiaoman, so Xiao Xiangmei dared to come over and talk to her.

"Sister Xiaoman, I heard that you are going to live in the old house, right?"

Meng Xiaoman didn't expect that everyone would know about it in just two days. No wonder some people looked at her probingly when she was working today.

"Yes, we can't live in the house at home, and the old house at the back of the village happens to be vacant. I discussed it with you, Brother Xiangdong, and decided to move to the back."

"Are you separated?"

Many people in the village rumored that the two of them had been separated and were living alone, and some even said that they had left the house.

"No, I just went out to eat and live alone."

"Oh, then after you finish cleaning up, can I go and play with you?" Xiao Xiangmei's personality is very similar to her name, and she likes beautiful things.

Among several cousins, she also likes Xiao Xiangdong the most.

Although he is fierce, he is really handsome.

"Okay, I happen to be bored too, and I don't know anyone in this village."

Seeing Meng Xiaoman agreeing, Xiao Xiangmei was afraid that it would affect her work, so she turned around and left.

Although many people said that this educated youth sister-in-law married Brother Xiang Dong like a flower stuck in cow dung, but in her opinion, the two of them were really well matched, one was handsome and the other was beautiful.

"I wonder how good-looking their children will be in the future." Xiao Xiangmei muttered as she walked.

"What's wrong? I told you not to go. If you insist on climbing up, you'll be exhausted." Li Cuiying saw her coming back with her head lowered and said.

Meng Xiaoman, a person who can even fuck her own mother-in-law, how can a little girl like her cope with it.

"We are all one family, why don't we just say hello? Xiangdong's wife is originally from the city, so it's normal to be arrogant." Xiao Guangrong said.

"No, Sister Xiaoman is very nice. She also said that when I move to a new house, I can go visit her when I have time to play." Xiao Xiangmei said.

"Then why do you look so downcast?" Li Cuiying asked.

"I'm thinking about something." Xiao Xiangmei said.

When Xiao Xiangxue heard what his sister said, he stopped what he was doing and said, "Really or not? I'm going too. I haven't talked to my new sister-in-law yet."

"Tell me, you're such a big-headed guy, why are you everywhere?" Xiao Xiangmei didn't want to lead him as a follower.

He is obviously only one year younger than me, but he still acts like a child and likes to follow him wherever he goes.

Seeing Xiao Xiangmei's refusal, Xiao Xiangxue immediately complained: "Dad, Mom, my sister bullied me again.".

"Xiang Mei, don't bully your brother."

"How could I bully him?"

Humph, not only is he a follower, but he is also a complainer.

Meng Xiaoman has been here for more than half a month, and the wheat and rice in the space have also reached earing time. What crops are planted in the space depends on what seeds are distributed by the space. This time, wheat seeds and rice are distributed.

Two crops were planted on five acres of land.

As long as Meng Xiaoman needs to use his mental power to operate when sowing and harvesting, there is no need to ask anything else.

The soil here in the Qinghe Brigade is relatively poor, and due to the lack of sunshine and temperature, as well as the terrain, rice is basically not grown.

Meng Xiaoman hasn't eaten white rice for a long time. Looking at the rice in the space, Meng Xiaoman couldn't help but swallow. In her last life, after the end of the world, she had never eaten white rice, and she missed it very much.

After the harvest, 70% will be given to the space, and the rest will be her own. By then, she must eat enough rice: white rice, egg fried rice, lard rice, rice balls, bacon braised rice...

Keep some for yourself, and find a way to sell the rest on the black market, and then exchange for some money, so that you have enough food to eat and enough money to spend.

It’s beautiful to think about.

Thinking about the delicious food, Meng Xiaoman felt energetic at work.

When Meng Xiaoman came back from work, Xiao Xiangdong had already turned over half of the land in the courtyard.

Meng Xiaoman felt that Xiao Xiangdong was really hard-working. Although he had bad legs, he would take the initiative to do all the work he could do. There was a small stool in the courtyard. He sat on the stool and dug up the ground bit by bit with a hoe.

"You are so awesome. You have done so much in a long time." Meng Xiaoman praised.

When Xiao Xiangdong wanted to work, Meng Xiaoman would not stop him, but would give him encouragement and praise.

They say that good men are made by boasting, and Meng Xiaoman plans to do the same.

Besides, he is also a member of the family, and it is natural for him to share in the housework.

He only turned over a little bit of ground and was praised like this by Meng Xiaoman. Xiao Xiangdong blushed a little. If his legs were good, he could finish the two yards in half a day.

"There is water in the basin, you wash your hands first." After Xiao Xiangdong finished speaking, he took the dishes from Meng Xiaoman's hand and walked to the kitchen.

The vegetables were picked in the vegetable garden when Meng Xiaoman was off work, including two radishes, a cabbage, and some green and red peppers.

Xiao Xiangdong is not very good at cooking, but he can wash and chop vegetables.

Xiao Xiangdong took the things to the kitchen, washed them, and asked Meng Xiaoman how to cut them.

"Cut the cabbage normally, shred one radish, and slice one radish."

There is still half of the corn tortillas posted at noon. Meng Xiaoman plans to make fried cabbage with oil residue, cold and spicy shredded radish, and make pickled radish from the sliced ​​radish, soak it overnight, and eat it with porridge for breakfast tomorrow.

"By the way, tomorrow I will go to the vegetable garden to dig up more radishes, dry them in the sun, and pickle some mustard radish. I will use them as side dishes. They will last for a long time."

Xiao Xiangdong said that drying dried radish and pickling pickled pickled vegetables are relatively simple. He saw Xiao's mother doing it before and knew how to make it.

"Okay, I'll leave these to you. If you're missing any seasonings, just tell me and I'll buy them."

"Well, the most important thing is salt. I have two kilograms at home, which should be enough."

After dinner, Xiao Xiangdong took over the task of washing pots and dishes. After finishing, he boiled a pot of hot water to scald his feet.

Meng Xiaoman soaked her feet and felt that the fatigue of the day was gone. She thought that it would be nice to have a family man at home.

The old house is quieter and more spacious than the Xiao family, but the water is not convenient.

There is no well in the courtyard, and water has to be fetched from the public well in the village.

There are two public wells in the village, the nearest one is about 700 to 800 meters away from the old house.

However, this area is close to the mountain, not too far away, and there is a mountain stream flowing through it, which can be used for daily laundry and vegetables. But for drinking water, we still have to go to the village to pick up water.

The water used today was picked up by Zhang Dongliang and the others during the day. They picked up a large water tank, enough for them to use for two days.

"Why don't we dig a well in the courtyard? It will be more convenient to drink water."

"Well, I told Dongliang today that his family just drilled a well this year, and he knows the person who drilled the well."

"Okay then, tell me how much money you need."

"Uh-huh."

"By the way, I see there are a few families nearby. Would you like me to visit them? Do you know them?"

There are fewer people here at the back of the village, and they live sparsely, unlike the houses in the village, which are close together. But neighbors may need each other's help one day. After all, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors.

"The big yard a little further to the west is the breeding place for the team and the cowshed where the decentralized personnel live. The breeder's name is Zhang Quanliang. Just call him Grandpa Zhang. In addition to him, there is also his grandson Zhang Changming. The two of them are responsible for looking after the team. There are pigs and cows in the cowshed. Grandpa Zhang is a kind man, you can come to him if you have anything to do, but those who have been transferred to the cowshed, it is best not to get too close."

Meng Xiaoman remembered that the heroine Shen Yuru in the book came to the countryside here because the hero and his grandfather were sent to the Qinghe Brigade. In other words, the hero Qi Hengyuan lived in the cowshed over there.

The male protagonist of the original book, a son of a high-ranking cadre in the capital city, held a high position under his grandfather, but was affected during the struggle and was sent down here. The male protagonist was worried that his grandfather would be persecuted by someone with intentions when he came here, so he resolutely followed him to protect his grandfather.

According to the plot in the book, the male protagonist's family is only silent for a while. After two or three years, it will revive again and become even more popular than before. In addition to the male protagonist's grandfather, several other devolved people are also big bosses in various fields. After the female protagonist and the male protagonist get together, these resources also become the support for the female protagonist in her later studies and career.

All the contacts were sent to me, and they were not used in vain. Meng Xiaoman was thinking about how to naturally get in touch with these big guys.

"The two families on the east side belong to Zhou Dongsheng's family. The man suffered a disaster while building the dam, leaving only orphans, widows and an old mother-in-law; the other family belongs to Sun Dahu's family. His ancestors were hunters, and hunting was not allowed later. I came to the village just now. I have two sons and one daughter at home, and they are all good at work."
