Ever since I mastered my cooking skills, Xu Damao from the backyard has become dependent on me and often comes to drink with me, bringing me local specialties that I brought back from the countryside.

He had never gotten along well with the fool Zhu from the middle courtyard since he was a child, and his father had taken a lot of benefits from showing movies before. But he never shared much with the beasts in the No. 95 courtyard.

As time went by, my family became a small and invisible part of this courtyard, living in our own backyard.

When the three uncles of Yard 95 were nominated a few years ago, his father Xu Fugui was not selected as expected. In addition, there was only one projectionist position in the steel mill, so for the sake of his son's future, he went to work in the cinema and passed his projectionist position to his son.

Just this year, seeing that Xu Damao could stand on his own, he officially resigned from his position at the steel rolling mill, moved out of the No. 95 beastly compound, and moved to the cinema staff area with his wife and daughter.

Only Xu Damao was left all alone in Yard No. 95, but fortunately, Xu Damao was not a good guy and was even worse than these beasts.

The few times Sha Zhu suffered losses were all at the hands of Xu Damao. Especially in terms of marriage, Xu Damao had a firm grip on him. All the women Sha Zhu had in his memory were the ones that Xu Damao had played with.

If this guy wasn't infertile like Yi Zhonghai, who would be the destined protagonist of this courtyard between the thief of the holy stick and the first-blood master Xu Damao?

People nowadays are not like us today, who don’t even get married, let alone think about whether to have children or not.

Yi Zhonghai, a great man in the middle court, is a living example. He is almost crazy. In order to plan for his retirement, he schemed to make He Yuzhu almost extinct. Even his apprentice's wife was still a first-class fitter when she retired under him.

The monthly salary is only 27.5, and I don't know how much money I got for my seniority in the next few years. However, with the financial support of Fathead Fish Shazhu and the salary subsidy from Yi Zhonghai, the Jia family has not suffered any grievances after the departure of their pillar Jia Dongxu.

On the contrary, our lives are getting better and better. It is really because of the boundless power of our parents.

Liu Ping'an seriously suspected that the reason why the thief saint Jia Geng did not become a saint was that Jia Zhang and Qin Huairu lived to the end. This suppressed the fate of the thief saint, so Bang Geng had been playing small tricks in the courtyard, without doing anything extraordinary, and he did not achieve his own path to becoming a thief saint.

The last family relied on the blood-sucking He Yuzhu to take over the entire No. 95 courtyard. The White Lotus of the Golden Age is so terrifying. Even the Thief Saint who could not be retained by the Zhuxian Sword Formation can be suppressed.

I just don't know if Qin Huairu's Great White Lotus Method can still bloom on this piece of flesh and blood, now that he has met He Yuzhu, the fathead fish who has awakened his memories of the future life, in this life.

Some time ago, when Xu Damao came back from the countryside, he brought local specialties he brought back from the countryside to drink with me. I told him that I had come back from Qinjia Village for my last battle.

The Qinjia Village where Qin Huairu's mother's family lives is now organizing a commune.

It's just that the work point system has not been implemented this year. Firstly, the wheat has already been planted, and it's all planted by our own people, so it's hard to calculate the work points. Secondly, there is no clear document from above, and only the framework of the commune has been established to facilitate the unified management of various villages and towns. I'll give you some information in advance so that everyone can have a general idea and accept it when the time comes.

Just like the electric bike fire in Sanyuanli, it was unexpected that this urban village that had been there for who knows how many years would be demolished, but in the end, it was always ordinary people who got hurt. But everyone has long been used to it.

However, Liu Pingan knew that this rolling trend was unstoppable. It would be fully launched next year at the latest. As a village under the jurisdiction of the Four Nine City, would it be piloted in advance? Liu Pingan didn't know at the moment, but it would definitely be fully launched next year.

Our common people are the most hardworking and tolerant group of people. For a bite to eat, they can work like cattle and horses for the landlords. They can work from dawn till dusk every day.

This is especially true during the busy farming season, especially during the wheat harvest in the north. The wheat is harvested in bundles, then taken to the threshing ground to dry, and then the wheat is threshed out with a roller.

If there is no threshing ground, you have to find a way to make one yourself in the next few days. Usually you make a threshing ground in your own land, and the whole family will work together, busy as hell.

After the wheat is ground, we use a shovel to blow away the husks with the wind, and finally dry it on the threshing floor and put it in bags.

We have been working on this one meal for half a year. The threshing ground is only used for a few days. After the wheat is harvested, we have to dig it up again with a hoe, so as not to delay the sowing in the second half of the year.

The autumn harvest is easier, as most crops in the north are corn and sweet potatoes. You can just break the corn cobs off and take them home, and pile them up under your roof or somewhere that won't get wet in the rain. If there's really no room inside, you can just tie the corn cobs together and pile them up in a pine cone shape and place them outside where they won't get wet in the rain.

When winter comes, the whole family sits together to shell corn kernels. Families with better conditions simply burn the corn cobs as firewood and only eat fine cornmeal, which is ground a little finer and is not much worse than white flour.

Those who are not well-off can't bear to part with the corn cobs, and directly pull them to the flour mill, which saves the effort of peeling the corn kernels. But the taste is known to everyone who has eaten it. You should know that corn cobs are not added to the feed for livestock nowadays.

Friends who have farmed artificially probably no longer want to do so - they long to experience this feeling again.

Agriculture has developed much better now. Sowing, pest control, fertilization, harvesting and other aspects can basically be completed by mechanization. It is almost the same as the planting of the 27 acres of black soil in my space now.

But this is all after 2000, and none of the above steps are free! In the north, wheat and corn are the two crops. Now, we can only harvest one quarter of the profit on the same piece of land. The other quarter of the crops is the cost.

Those who farmed did not make much money, but in every village, families with farm machinery made a lot of money twice a year. Every household built a new house, and it became the best in the surrounding area.
