Chen Miao was moved after hearing the words of several old men. This is the love the lowest people have for their country.

"No need, I have several farms in the Northeast, and all the food is supplied there. Don't worry about going hungry."

"What's yours is yours. What's ours is ours. Let the children be fed and strong enough to go into battle."

Chen Miao stopped trying to persuade him. If it didn't work, just collect some supplies here and take them back. You could really go to the Armed Forces Department and ask.

"Xiao Feng's family, you have found jobs for so many young people in our village. The big guys will never forget you two."

"Second uncle, don't say that. We are not trying to make the big guys appreciate us. We will do what we can to think of the big guys. But you are old people, so you must be careful not to lose the land."

"You definitely can't throw it away. It's good to make money, but you can't survive without food."

"I feel relieved now. I am still struggling. If all the strong laborers go out to work, so much fertile land in our village will be wasted."

"It's okay, it's okay. Wufu said that this year the agricultural machinery station will give our village two tractors. From Xiaofeng's family, do you have a lot of this kind of machinery on your farm?"

Chen Miao nodded, "Yes, there are rotary cultivators, seeders, and harvesters. We can also use chemical fertilizers and pesticides, and the yields are pretty good."

"Can you get some machinery?"

"Yes, now our domestic agricultural machinery factory can produce it. I will contact them when I go there this time. I will send it back when the time comes."

"Really? That's great. It's okay, let's let the whole village contribute,"

Chen Miao smiled and nodded, "Okay, I'll call the county in a few days and promise that our village will have agricultural machinery next year."

The old men all laughed, and felt a little uncomfortable seeing that none of them had many teeth left.

When people get old, they suddenly feel like they want to take care of their children but cannot wait for them.

Chatting with the old man, saying something here and there. Listening to the old man's simple words, I felt close to him.

"Xiao Feng's family, isn't your farm in the Northeast particularly big?"

“The smallest farm is as big as three of our villages.”

"It's all ground?"

"Yes, it's all earth. When the wheat is ripe, it looks particularly beautiful. There is golden grain as far as the eye can see."

"That's great. Listening to your words, it seems like there is wheat before my eyes."

I chatted with the old man for a long time, and returned to my parents' house around noon.

Today at noon, Liang Caixia made rice, stewed meat, steamed egg custard, and fried tender small Japanese melons for her daughter. The leeks are too old to make dumplings.

While the family of three was eating, the three daughters-in-law came to the door again with their children.

Looking at the food on the table, I swallowed unconsciously. There was no man in the family this autumn, and I was much more tired than in previous years, so I reluctantly went to town to buy meat.

Liang Caixia was too lazy to pay attention to them. The youngest grandson is already fourteen, and he is not a child, so they are not allowed to eat.

The three of them were silent. The three daughters-in-law were a little overwhelmed.

Zhang Yanhong thought for a while, "Third sister, Xiaoqin and I are here to find you. I know I was wrong before. But Xiaoqin is your niece after all. As an aunt, you can arrange and work for her."

It's not easy for us women. After marrying into your husband's family, you have to live a good life. If you want to have a straight back, you still need to be strong.

No one in our family dares to bully you. Isn’t this to make the young couple’s life easier in the future? "

"Yes, Third Sister, we were wrong in the past, and we were not good to you. It was us who were not good, and the children did not let us teach them well. It will never be like this in the future. As Third Sister, you should also educate them well. "

Chen Miao put down the bowl and chopsticks and looked at the three, two nieces and a nephew.

The six of them were at a loss what to do, "Want to work?"

"Third aunt, I want to work." Xiaoqin said softly. "It's not impossible, but you can only do manual labor."

The six girls nodded excitedly.

"I'll start with you ugly words. If you go to work and don't do a good job, don't use my name. You can go home directly."

"Third aunt, I will do it well."

Chen Miao nodded expressionlessly, "It's best to do this. Also, stop your self-righteous cleverness. Your methods are not enough."

Xiaoqin's face turned red after being told this. I was very unconvinced and didn't dare to say anything.

"Third sister, when can you go to work? Chen Lian is still young, can you let him work as an apprentice?"

"No, if you want to, just do physical work. If you don't, just study hard. I'll look at your performance in the future. That way you'll have the chance to stop doing physical work."

Chen Lian kept his head down, the dissatisfaction in his heart had reached its peak. All the brothers in the family had been arranged, why didn't he care about himself? I'm still young, why do I have to do manual labor?

I want to lose my temper, but I don't have the courage to question him, for I'm afraid that he will ignore me even more in the future.

"Okay, let's all go back and wait for the news."

Yang Yuemei was unhappy and didn't dare to say that her mother and daughter had the same idea.

He left unwillingly, but now he didn't dare to offend others.

After the meal, the three of them talked about the work of the three children.

"You can arrange jobs for the two girls. You will be confident when you get married in the future."

"It's okay to do it honestly. If something happens, I won't tolerate them."

"Anyway, just don't make it difficult."

"Don't be embarrassed. If they think about it, they will be obedient. If they don't obey, I won't give them another chance."

Chen Miao didn't go home either. She lay down and rested for a while at her parents' house. In the afternoon, she thought about picking red adzuki beans with the two old people.

Shen Wufu looked at the locked door and came directly to Chen's house to look for it.

"Uncle Wu, why didn't you take a break?"

"What's so tiring about this? Your fifth aunt said you were looking for me?"

"Yes. I just want to talk to you about things in the village. I chatted with my third uncle and the others under the big willow tree in the morning. They want to donate some food to the army."

“My family in Xiaofeng’s family also donates food.”

"Okay, I will collect some supplies in the next few days and transport them together when the time comes."

"Don't bother with the people in the village. I told them to send it directly to my house and to the train station before you leave."

"Okay, fifth uncle, just worry about it. My third uncle and they told me about agricultural machinery. Now our domestic agricultural machinery factories can also produce it. I will make a call tomorrow.

Does this money come from our village or the town? If I don't have any money, I can pay. "

Shen Wufu was excited. "Xiaofeng's family, the town will give our village two tractors this year. If they give farm machinery, I will go to the town and ask. If they don't pay, our village will pay. Each household will contribute. If there is not enough, you can help first. Just put it on and I’ll pay you back in the future.”

Chen Miao nodded, "Okay. Let's go to town together tomorrow."

"Can you really give us those machines?"

"If you can, I'll just call them."

"That's great. I've read in the newspaper, and the harvester in it harvests wheat quickly."
