Several times in dreams

Chapter 103 The Infrastructure Team

Knowing that Chen Wenlan's mother and younger brother's family would also join in the construction of the Great Northern Wilderness, the leader of the infrastructure team allocated three brick houses to Wenlan. In the past few days, Wenlan has taken time to clean them up.

Chen Wenlan had already made a plan. She took her mother and Yuhui to live in one room, Wenxiu and Sun Yujiao lived in one room, and another room was used as a stove. Xueli and Xuewen lived on the same kang.

After leading the whole family to have a full meal in the cafeteria, Chen Wenlan explained her arrangements.

Who knew that Sun Yujiao would be furious when she heard this, and refused to let Xueli and Xuewen live together. The reason was that Xuewen might have lice, and she wanted to drive Xuewen to the kang of Chen Wenlan and his wife!

Chen Wenlan became furious when she heard this, "This is a house allocated by my mother. The three of you can live there if you want, and if you don't want to live, you can live in the woods!"

In the woods in the early autumn of the Great Northern Wilderness, there are swarms of wild animals, dense swamps, and formations of mosquitoes and horseflies. Where is the place for people to stay?
Sun Yujiao immediately dared not say a word.

"Since you live here, I will make a rule with you. A family should behave like a family. Unite and work hard, bring up the children, and I will control all wages in the future!"

Chen Wenlan looked at Sun Yujiao's family, who was about to refute, "I don't have a family, and I don't have children. I can be absolutely fair. If you can accept it, you can live here. If you can't accept it, go back to your hometown in Shandong!"

Sun Yujiao shuddered at the thought of going back to her hometown to eat wild vegetables mixed with bran. Just now in the cafeteria, she ate three black-faced steamed buns in one go, and finally tasted the taste of food again.

Living with others is better than starving to death in her hometown. Sun Yujiao is a person who knows the current affairs. She immediately found a step and came down by herself. She also offered to help clean up Xuewen's personal hygiene in the future.

Seeing that her grandma was already dozing off after being exhausted all the way, Yuhui hurried to the stove to boil hot water and bring it to wash Jiang's feet.

Chen Wenlan was extremely relieved to see her niece, whom she hadn't seen for a year, being so sensible. The burden of life was on her shoulders, bumps and bumps would still be unavoidable in the future, but there was nothing more fortunate than staying together as a family in peace. up.

Yuhui entered the farm middle school and started her first year of junior high school. Her grades were excellent, and she was valued and liked by the teachers right away.

The middle school is three or four miles away from the infrastructure team. Every morning Yuhui gets up at dawn, carrying a piece of cornbread, eating while walking.

When I arrived at school, I was just in time for my morning reading. At noon, I went to the cafeteria of my aunt’s unit for dinner. After school in the afternoon, I only had half an hour to eat before evening self-study.

In order to save time, Yuhui often does not go home for dinner. When others are eating, Yuhui finishes the homework left by the teacher, and when it is evening self-study, she previews what she will learn the next day.

When she came home in the dark after school at night, Yuhui drank the cornflour that her grandma had put in the pot, and she had to study for a while under the kerosene lamp.

Studying so hard, Yuhui is always the first in the whole grade every time she takes the exam.

Xuewen went to school late, and his grades were average. At the age of 12, he was still in the fourth grade of the farm primary school, and Xueli just started the first grade. The two brothers went to and from school together every day, which was very worry-free.

Wenlan was still busy leaving early and returning late. More and more people came to the Great Northern Wilderness, and there were not enough houses to live in. The infrastructure team had become the busiest unit on the farm.

Wenxiu's new unit is the carpentry workshop under the infrastructure team. Wenlan is busy building houses, Wenxiu is busy processing doors and windows, and school tables, chairs and benches. Wenxiu, like Wenlan, is a serious worker. Quickly get the appreciation of the leadership.

Sun Yujiao was naturally happy seeing Wenxiu's outstanding work, and she looked forward to the day when she would be allocated a house and escape from Wenlan's control as soon as possible. When she thought of the money earned by her husband for the whole family to enjoy, Sun Yujiao's heart ached like a knife.

There is too much work to be done on the farm, and a family production team was formed soon, allowing the women who are at home to grind tofu, break corn, plant private plots, raise chickens and ducks. Various agricultural products.

Sun Yujiao has been pampered and spoiled at home since she got married, at most doing housework, and has never done such rough and tiring work.

But she is jealous that other people have wages, and they can also get potatoes, cabbage, flour and pork. There is a mother-in-law at home who does laundry and cooks, so she also signs up for the family production team.

After working for only one day, Sun Yujiao found that the wages were not easy to earn. After breaking the corn for a day, she was so tired that she was sore all over. Now she knows why Wenlan has become dark and thin, and every penny of 32 yuan is soaked. sweat.

When Sun Yujiao told Chen Wenlan her feelings that night, she thought it would resonate with her, but unexpectedly, Wenlan said it to her in contempt.

"Old man, I'm not talking about you. A housewife like you, once spoiled and spoiled, is jealous when she sees other people earning money. When she goes to earn money by herself, she finds that the money has been earned very hard. Is she full of grievances?"

Sun Yujiao nodded hurriedly. If life didn't force her, who would do this kind of work?

"Do you think I'm working hard just for money? My purpose is fundamentally different from yours. I'm working hard to make the Great Northern Wilderness better and better. I'll be proud when it becomes the largest grain production base one day To put it bluntly, here is my contribution, Chen Wenlan! I am here to make contributions, and you are only here for a morsel of food!"

Chen Wenlan spoke impassionedly, every word slammed into the floor, her dark face and eyes gleamed, Sun Yujiao blinked, trying to refute something, but in the end she didn't say anything, and went back to her room to sleep in despair.

Winter is coming, and before it freezes, the workers of the infrastructure team are taking the time to do the final painting work on these houses.

Chen Wenlan stood on the ladder and painted the window frames. She was always meticulous in her work and strived for perfection. Even for such a simple job as painting, she fumbled and summed up her own set of theories.

Some people steal and make slippery, just stir a few times before painting the paint and then start to add pine perfume. Due to uneven stirring, the paint can be thick or thin, and when it is painted on the window frame, the thickness is different, which is very ugly.

Chen Wenlan can't stand this kind of person the most. As long as she sees it, she will definitely grab the stirring stick and stir vigorously for more than half an hour, so that the pine perfume and paint are fully mixed, and the brush is not thick or thin on the window frame, and it looks even and beautiful. .

Every time the captain of the infrastructure construction took the windows painted by Chen Wenlan as a model and demonstration for everyone to learn from, this also aroused the jealousy and hostility of some women.

The most irritating one was a woman named Yu Hongfen, who had never been used to Wenlan, and often teased her behind her back, "What good is the window frame? It's better to give that face a good look. Look at the scar on her face, tsk tsk!"

Once Wenlan happened to hear it, and immediately wrestled with her. Wenlan was as tall as Jiang's, with a big frame and great strength. After a few rounds, Yu Hongfen suffered a disadvantage.

The braids were torn apart, and her face was gouged a few times. Yu Hongfen sat on the ground and cursed, "Wretch! No wonder you can't get married!"

Chen Wenlan was so angry that she fought back with two mouths, "What's wrong with the shrew! Today I will beat you to death, you bitch!"

It took a lot of effort for everyone to pull Wen Lan away, and helped Yu Hongfen, who was crying and fussing, to go home.

Wen Lan stood alone at the back of the new house in a daze for a while, and suddenly wiped away tears.

Suddenly someone patted her on the shoulder, Wen Lan wiped her face in a panic, and when she looked back, it was Chang Sheng's daughter-in-law, Chen Lanxiang.
