Reborn in 1940 and survived until the new century

From now on, we live in the countryside, so we don’t have to worry about snacks. We don’t have tickets, so we can’t buy them even if we want to, let alone eat them.”

"That's right, but there's no rush to eat meat. When we learn how to fish, we won't be short of meat."

"You can't tell everyone that, you know, if you can fish, other people can fish too.

But if the river is too deep, what if someone falls in?

It’s easy to drown someone if you’re not careful, so don’t tell anyone.

It would be fine if nothing happens, but if something happens, they might blame you for the crime later. "

"this?"

"Don't ever think that this kind of thing won't happen. In fact, it's quite the opposite. Sometimes the most unlikely things are more likely to happen.

You know, even though we have settled down in the countryside, if something happens and it involves us, even if we are not responsible, we will definitely not be able to avoid it. "

"this?"

"Mom, don't worry, I will take good care of my brothers and sisters.

No matter what we do in the future, we will be more careful and never cause trouble for our family."

"Mom is not afraid that you will cause trouble, but I want to tell you that our family is small after all, so unless it is necessary, we should stay out of the spotlight for the time being.

But then again, if someone provokes us, we don't need to be afraid.

Mom and Dad will take care of everything, you just need to grow up happily.

As for the food at home, mom will not restrict you, the only thing is that you cannot eat in front of outsiders."

"it is good."

When the children are not in school and I have free time, I will teach them a few words.

I'm afraid that if I'm not careful, someone will catch me.

Even though everything seems fine now, bad guys never say they are bad.

At the same time, they also took their three children and started to clean up their private plots near their home.

Each household is divided according to the population, which is not bad, even though Huangzhuang Brigade is slightly worse than other brigades.

However, since it is closer to the foot of the mountain, the population is relatively smaller than in other brigades, which means there is more arable land, and each person in each household can be allocated 1 mu of private land.

For this reason, every household makes rational use of their private plots, which can be regarded as a family sideline. They can use surplus labor and free time to freely cultivate crops to increase income, while also being exempt from agricultural taxes.

As for what to plant in the private plot, it is up to the family to decide. Most families mainly grow vegetables for daily consumption, such as mustard greens, cabbage, peppers, radishes, beans, etc. These vegetables are also used to make pickles.

A few families grow pumpkins and sweet potatoes in the corners to supplement the insufficient food allocated to them.

In this way, at least there will be more food to eat, and his children are still relatively young. In addition, he can earn work points now, so Guo Huaian may also use the money to exchange for some food.

The vegetables not planted in the private plot are mostly more, occupying two mu of land.

As for the remaining three acres of land, they were planted with sweet potatoes and pumpkins. It was obvious from the beginning that the corn and soybeans distributed by the team would not be enough in the first year.

Even though the team has planted a large area of ​​sweet potatoes, they still plant some in order to spend less money on buying food when the time comes.

In addition, vegetables such as onions, leeks, etc. are also planted in the yard at home, and the children at home are also encouraged to grow them.

"When the team distributes the sweet potatoes, if there are any rotten ones, mom will dry them for you to eat as snacks."

"really?"

"Of course it's true?

But they have to be the kind that are rotten. Good sweet potatoes can be kept for a while, and it is definitely impossible to dry them in the sun."

"Mom, we know this. When the sweet potatoes are good, we can put them in the stove and roast them to eat."

"Yes, roasted sweet potatoes are also good."

"No matter how delicious something is, it has to be consumed in limited quantities. Eating too much is not necessarily a good thing."

"We know this."

"We don't have a lot of food at home right now, but we can temporarily eat some wild vegetables and other dishes.

You three children, no matter how bad the wild vegetables taste, you must insist on eating them every day, and you must also insist on exercising.

It will be relatively better next year, but even so, we can't be picky, okay?"

"Got it, Mom."

"When you are older, you can trap prey in a hidden place at the corner of the mountain. You can't be impatient for now, understand?"

"We know, mother. We have also heard that there are wolves and wild boars in the mountains. We will not be stupid enough to go and die."

"That's right. Without the ability to protect ourselves, we will never go up the mountain alone."

"That's good. I'm teaching you martial arts not only for climbing the mountain, but more for self-protection. Even if you go to the commune alone, or go to school in the county town, your parents will be relieved.

I think after this period of time, you can tell how the lives of city people are without mom telling you?

How's life like for these country people?

I believe you all know that if you want to get rid of your current life in the countryside, you have to study hard, otherwise you will have to stay in the countryside for the rest of your life."

"Mom, can't you be a teacher like Dad?"

"Of course you can, but the prerequisite is that you study very well.

Otherwise, why would they let you be a teacher? "

"Yes!"

“Another thing, even though your father is a teacher now, he is just a substitute teacher after all, and his treatment is still different from those public school teachers in the commune.

You should know that teachers in public schools not only have high salaries, but also various tickets, while your father only has a salary but no tickets, this is the difference.

To put it bluntly, if our Huangzhuang Brigade is not short of teachers, the first person we don’t need is your father.”

"what?"

"Can't believe it?"

"Yes, I thought it could always be like this?"

"How can it be?

Even if you stay in the position all the time, your current situation and treatment will be different, and relatively speaking, many benefits will also be different.

Not to mention other jobs, there are certain differences anyway.

If you want to change, your parents may not have the ability to do so for the time being, but you are different. As long as you study hard, you will always have a chance. "

"I will never give up this opportunity."

"I do not know either."

"Me too."

In fact, there is no need to say so much to them. After moving from the city to the countryside, it didn’t take long for the three children to show obvious changes.

Even though I went home to do my homework after school every day when I was in the city, I was not as diligent as I am now. For this reason, I would ask questions while studying by candlelight at night.
