Scholars in the courtyard.

"Finally I can lie down!"

Yang Xiaotao put his arms around Ran Qiuye and said with emotion.

Ran Qiuye lay on his side, "Are you tired?"

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to touch Yang Xiaotao's face, "Rest when you're tired, don't work so hard!"

Yang Xiaotao held Ran Qiuye's hand in his palm. The palm was thin, and he spread it slowly. With his slender fingers, he could still feel the smoothness of the palm.

Gently squeezed the back of Ran Qiuye's hand, "I'm not tired!"

"This kind of life makes me very fulfilled. I am changing every day, changing myself and changing the things around me."

"Even, I feel that I have fallen in love with this feeling, and I think every day that the world will change because of me!"

"This, shocks me."

Yang Xiaotao put his cheek against Ran Qiuye's hair, and expressed his recent feelings.

Ran Qiuye was silent for a moment, holding Yang Xiaotao's palm behind his back.

Wide and thick, powerful.

"Actually, in my eyes, you are still the same you!"

"As you said, many things are changing, whether it's because of your participation or the power of time itself, this change is the outside of the influence!"

"But I know that your original heart is still you, and this hasn't changed!"

"Maybe, the change you think is just a more real you!"

Ran Qiuye spoke quietly, and immediately felt that Yang Xiaotao's hands were dishonest.

"Daughter-in-law, you are right."

Ran Qiuye felt something was wrong, what was this guy doing at such a serious moment.

"Daughter-in-law, spring covers autumn, it's really cold. Tie Tie is still warm!"

Then Yang Xiaotao lay on his ear, his body softened, "It's so warm..."

"You, bastard~"

"Mom, I can't walk anymore!"

In the dark night, Banggen walked step by step. He was not very old, but after being dragged down by this day, he felt that his legs were filled with lead, and he just couldn't move.

When Jia Zhang heard this, he let out a breath of white air.

At night, it was cold and stiff, and she couldn't walk anymore.

On this day, from the funeral to the burial, to the return journey.

Originally, Jia Zhang didn't need to go, but the stick is still young, Qin Huairu has a big belly, if she, the only "good person" in Jia's family, doesn't help, someone might poke her back.

But when the man came, the villagers didn't give him a good face.

It stands to reason that on this big night, if there is a sense of relatives, they will not let their orphans and widows go. They will stay for one night, rest, and leave the next day.

But when we arrived in the village, not to mention that no one was enthusiastic, even the people who watched the excitement were old people and children. Adult men and women had already gone to work in the fields.

After Jia Dongxu's burial, the original helpers dispersed in a rush, leaving the four mothers on the spot.

In the end, there was no one to keep or send him off, so he walked towards the courtyard in the afterglow of the evening.

"Bang, come on, grandma will carry you!"

Mrs. Jia Zhang walked up to the stick, slowly bent down, and picked up the stick.

"Mom, I can't walk anymore!"

Xiao Dang thumped and sat on the ground, seeing his brother being carried on his back, he didn't want to leave either.

Qin Huairu supported her waist, "Xiao Dang, mother can't carry you."

She was also tired and couldn't move her legs.

"Mom, woo woo!"

Xiao Dang couldn't cry, so Qin Huairu could only squat down and prepare to hug her.

One in this belly, another one in my arms, how can I still have strength?
Jia Zhang's side also didn't move. If it was in the past, he would have scolded and lost money a long time ago.

But now, she is really bored.

"Little boy, let's go for a while and we'll be home."

Qin Huairu comforted Xiao Dang and pulled Xiao Dang up.

The moment I stood up, I felt dark in front of my eyes, dizzy and uncomfortable.

Fortunately, Qin Huairu knew that he couldn't fall down now, resisted the dizziness, stretched out his hand and patted his head, and then he woke up.

Several people hit the road again.

Lights were on in front.

Qin Huairu and Jia Zhang stopped quickly and hugged the child tightly.

This night, although the surroundings are still peaceful, nothing happened.

The mother and daughter leaned together nervously.

When the light approached, they heard a familiar voice, and the two were relieved.

"Sister Qin, I found you!"

Silly Zhu ran over quickly with a flashlight, Qin Huairu only felt that there was hope in his heart.

Jiazhang looked at Sha Zhu who only had Qin Huairu in his eyes, and was not moved because Sha Zhu came to pick them up.

His eyes fixed on Sha Zhu and Qin Huairu, and he clenched his teeth tightly.

"Zhuzi, why are you here?"

Qin Huairu said joyfully, Shazhu leaned forward, looked at Jia Zhangshi carrying a stick, and picked Xiaodang up in his arms.

"I see that you haven't come back this late at night, so I thought about coming over to have a look."

"If you don't show up, I'll go back to sleep, but I don't know that you are really here."

"It's a coincidence!"

Silly Zhu looked at Qin Huairu, and could feel the other party's joy even under the moonlight.

"Silly Zhu, don't be so playful, hurry up and carry the stick on your back."

"This way, crush me to death!"

Silly Zhu listened, looked at Jia Zhang, and then went up to prepare to carry the stick.

Qin Huairu twitched her lips, and the old godly woman had the nerve to say, it took only 1 minute to memorize it?

All the way.

Silly Zhu hugged Xiao Dang with a stick on his back, and from time to time helped Qin Huairu walk to the courtyard.

Behind Jia Zhang looked at the few people walking in front, a flash of fear flashed in his eyes, and then he was deeply ruthless.

The next day, when Yang Xiaotao woke up, Ran Qiuye had already gotten up.

Although Xiaowei has improved Ran Qiuye's physique, after pregnancy, as the baby in her belly grew, her sleep became more and more unsteady. child.

After waking up, Ran Qiuye had already prepared breakfast.

Millet sweet potato porridge, and a few eggs.

Every time Yang Xiaotao came back, he brought a bag full of eggs.

Now the system rewards a lot of eggs, duck eggs and goose eggs in the space every month, Yang Xiaotao still has to put on a show, and buy some eggs from the supply and marketing agency from time to time.

So there are a lot of eggs at home.

Mrs. Yang has given birth to chickens, anyway, the family has pigs, so there are a few chickens.

Calculated according to the time, it happened to be raised for a few months, and he was killed to give Ran Qiuye confinement.

Mr. Yang came back from next door and sat down to eat.

Waiting for Yang Xiaotao to speak, Huanfeng asked where he was going to dig a well today.

Yang Xiaotao has to be prepared for this. The more wells you drill, the better. If you find an area with rich groundwater resources, one well can catch up with several wells.

Moreover, looking for the wrong place will only do futile work.

The goal of drilling the well this time was mainly for the land on the north slope, so Yang Xiaotao planned to ask Xiaowei to take a look. With Xiaowei's ability, it is easy to find groundwater along the roots of plants.

"I plan to get the north slope done first. If the progress is fast, I can plan that piece of land."

After Yang Xiaotao finished his eggs, he finished his porridge. The grandpa beside him had already finished his meal and was nodding with a cigarette stick.

At home, in order to take care of Ran Qiuye, the grandfather never smoked.

It's only on when you're outside.

Yang Xiaotao took out a pack of cigarettes he had prepared and gave the grandfather a pack, and talked about the drilling machine.

"Grandfather, we still need to talk to Director Gao about this matter. It would be more appropriate for the Academy of Agricultural Sciences to come forward."

Mr. Yang nodded after listening, and planned to talk to Director Gao later.

It's just that before the two of them could move, footsteps came from outside.

Wangcai didn't call, so he should be an acquaintance.

Then I saw Gao Yufeng walking in hastily.

"Director Gao, have you eaten yet?"

"Eat? Why would you want to eat?"

Gao Yufeng was dissatisfied and spoke with anger.

Yang Xiaotao naturally knew what was going on, and Mr. Yang beside him was still sitting, not asking any questions.

Going forward, he pulled Gao Yufeng under the seat, and Ran Qiuye handed him a bowl of porridge.

"Director Gao, it's not that I have to keep this from you. The main thing is that I don't know if it can be done."

"You don't know, the few people in our rolling mill were also cautious and didn't dare to speak up. Only after the experiment was successful yesterday did they figure out how to report it."

As Yang Xiaotao explained, Gao Yufeng's face softened a little.

It's just that I was a little dissatisfied with the news from other sources.

"I'm going to tell you about this today, and it just so happens that you're here, look..."

Gao Yufeng picked up the bowl and took a sip. There was sugar in it. This kid lives...

After finishing the porridge, I put the eggs in my pocket, "Give me a postcard, a well, how long will it last?"

Yang Xiaotao stretched out two fingers, "Two hours, as long as the materials keep up, a six-meter-deep well will be drilled for you in two hours."

"Two hours? Are you sure?"

"Of course, the well in my house is."

Yang Xiaotao assured, "As long as the cooperation is good, the cement pipes are in place, and the manpower is sufficient, the efficiency can be accelerated."

"Don't worry about the cement pipes." Gao Yufeng said and looked at Yang Xiaotao again. This guy thought of everything, "I will report this matter to the higher authorities, and use special channels to ensure the supply."

"That's even better, so that work can start today. Three to five days will be enough!"

As Yang Xiaotao said, Mr. Yang nodded beside him. Not only did their village lack water wells, but the other two villages on the farm also didn't have many wells.

Three to five days, just in time.

"Director, there is a new question now."

When Yang Xiaotao opened his mouth, Gao Yufeng became serious, "What's the problem, tell me."

"Director, the amount of land has increased, so the original plan must be changed."

"We need to grow more crops."

Gao Yufeng was stunned for a moment, then slapped his thigh, "That's right, why did I forget about this?"

"You say you, if you want to say, even for a day, I can plan in advance. Now it's all right, and it's going to be changed again."

"You, you~"

Gao Yufeng pointed out that Yang Xiaotao hated iron but not steel, so why can't he talk about it in advance if he has an idea?
No confidence?
You don't have it, I have it for you!
When the development of this country is eager to fly, let alone whether you have confidence, as long as you have an idea, it is just a word, do it.

Otherwise, how did that sentence come from how bold people are and how productive the land is?
This child is still too young.

Yang Xiaotao felt very helpless, how he went back and forth was his own problem.

Grandpa Yang was smiling, and Ran Qiuye also pursed his lips to reveal the dimples on both sides.

"Okay, I'll leave the well digging to you, and I'll contact someone for other things."

"You've got the drilling machine done, come to the brigade to count up together."

Gao Yufeng got up and walked out. He had tempered his impatience in the past few days.

Walking to the door, he stopped suddenly, "By the way, the seeds that were given to Da Mao in the north for trial last time, they will also plant in the south, about the same time as us."

"The superior is still very concerned about us, you stay here if you have nothing to do."

"I'll ask someone to talk about the rolling mill."

Yang Xiaotao looked at Gao Yufeng who was leaving, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses.

"If you don't go back, don't go back."

"Just staying with my daughter-in-law."

On the side, Ran Qiuye also felt relieved, being with Yang Xiaotao always felt a sense of peace of mind.

"Who used you to accompany..."

But what needs to be said has to be said, otherwise there will be mischief again at night.
