Take Arada back to the past

Chapter 458, little cuties, here I come

Yang Xiaole beat the little girl and then said: "You have your own ideas, that's okay, but do you have to discuss it with your family? If you just run away, your family won't worry!"

Xiaoli pouted, rubbed her palms on her cotton-padded jacket, and quickly put on her gloves.

Then he looked at the middle-aged woman who had just come over and said, "Brother, this is Song Yue, the instructor of our company. Our company commander has gone to the battalion headquarters. This is my second brother, who came to see me."

Yang Xiaole looked at the other person and smiled and said, "Hello, instructor! My sister is a bit naughty. I have to trouble you to exercise more in the future."

Song Yue looked at Xiaoli and smiled: "I didn't expect you to come all the way here to see your sister. It's really rare!"

Then he said with a smile: "Don't underestimate your sister. She is the most active and efficient at work in the whole company. She is not as naughty as you say!"

Hearing this, Yang Xiaole also breathed a sigh of relief.

What I just said was not to be polite, but to see what this person looked like.

If you're an activist, that's the end of it.

It would get dark in more than an hour.

Then he smiled and said, "I understand, I won't sleep here tonight, I will go back in a while. I won't cause any trouble to you!"

Yang Xiaole followed his gaze and saw that it was not very far away.

Song Yue also smiled: "No problem, the military and the civilians are a family! By the way, how will you go back later? You have also seen that our camp has not been built yet. Now the ground is frozen, so we can only build a simple camp. . If you stay here at night, you will have to sleep with the soldiers of our company."

Yang Xiaole naturally knew.

He smiled and said, "That's not really true. I jumped in line and arrived at Fenghuangtun. I knew she was not very far from here, so I followed the car of the 13th Regiment."

But it feels strange: "I live in Uncle Xu's house, but he is in the company. Didn't your company just be established?"

"Ah? Phoenix Village?"

Then he asked hesitantly: "Brother, mother, they are not angry!"

Song Yue said, pointing to the mountains to the north and said: "Did you see, over that mountain is your Fenghuang Village. I only know the general direction, but looking close, it is thirty miles away from you! And this The mountain roads inside are complicated, and it’s not difficult for local veterans to pass because there are many wild animals in the mountains.”

After thinking for a while, he said: "Okay, I won't go back at night, just sleep here! I'll go back during the day tomorrow."

It's already past two o'clock in the afternoon.

"Oh, that's right! That's a great feeling! If I have a break from farming in the future, I'll come over and visit my sister!"

There is land reclamation here in the Great Beihuang. We often set up some kind of land reclamation commando team, which is really a life-threatening operation.

Song Yue looked around and said.

Song Yue said with a smile: "We know each other! Is there an old man named Xu Sanhao in your brigade? He has sent us food~"

Seeing this, Song Yue chuckled and said, "Okay, you guys chat, I'll go over first. Xiaoli, I'll give you a break, and you and your brother can talk alone."

"That's quite far!"

"That's for sure! It's over 30 degrees below zero. When the steamed buns are cooked, the bottom is cooked, but there are still ice lumps on top. It's only better after building that house. You can also eat something hot, and you don't even dare to dig the soil with a shovel. , even this shovel can’t cut through this land.”

Not afraid of anything.

Song Yue smiled and said: "Yes, that was before. We were in the company before. Isn't this because of the expansion of the educated youth? Our company is now the battalion headquarters! Platoon Leader Zhang and I will lead the people to form a new company!" "

Yang Xiaole raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "What's wrong? The instructor also knows Phoenix Dun?"

Then he said hello and left.

After he left, Xiaoli looked at him proudly: "How was it? I didn't embarrass you, did I?"

Hearing this, Yang Xiaole suddenly realized.

"Huh? It's getting dark soon. Where are you going? There's probably no car to go to the regimental headquarters at this point!"

These words made Xiaoli stick out her tongue.

Hearing this, Yang Xiaole said angrily: "If it weren't for winter and spanking doesn't hurt, I would have to spank you."

He looked around and said, "Is it cold at night?"

Xiaoli shook her head: "Yes, but not in our company. I came with my classmates."

After hearing this, Yang Xiaole thought for a while and asked: "Instructor, do you know how we get to Fenghuangtun? Is it far from here?"

Yang Xiaole rolled his eyes, and then said: "Okay, come and tell me, it's useless to say anything. How did you remember to come here? Do you have many classmates? Are there any male classmates here?"

Xiaoli said, feeling happy at the same time.

"What did you say?"

Yang Xiaole calculated the time and found that there were only less than 9 hours of daylight here.

I usually get up after dawn in the morning to get food, but I have been delayed for five or six hours on the way.

The Construction Corps seems to be unable to fall in love now.

Song Yue was surprised: "Really or not? Are you in Fenghuangtun?"

Hearing this, Yang Xiaole felt relieved.

Yang Xiaole understood.

I guess Uncle Xu is talking about their company.

The temperature here is too low. Nowadays, agricultural tools are all made of poor quality pig iron. There is no way they can work in this frozen soil.

Fortunately, the people here are quite experienced.

There used to be a small forest near the chosen campsite, and there were many cut down tree stumps nearby.

Moreover, this place was obviously burned by fire, and then the underground tunnel was dug.

If you choose a swamp or a puddle, you'll be in trouble when the snow melts in spring.

Then he asked: "What about your food? How is it?"

Mai shook his head: "It's definitely not as good as at home! The food was brought by the battalion headquarters when we came together last time. It's enough for more than a month! The only vegetables are cabbage and potatoes."

Hearing this, Yang Xiaole rolled his eyes: "You deserve it!"

"Humph!"

Xiaoli pursed her lips and snorted.

Upon seeing this, Yang Xiaole looked around and estimated that the possibility of leaving was not very high, so he took out his things.

"I brought you something. Where is your sleeping place?"

These words made Xiaoli's eyes light up, she pulled him and smiled and said, "Let's go, I'll take you there!"

Then he took him to a shed.

The main body is made of wood, and the rest is made of branches and surrounding grass. It is quite tight!
A layer of ground was also built with branches, with a layer of weeds spread on top, and the quilt on top, which was spread into one piece.

Visual inspection estimated that at least a dozen people slept in this room.

The branches at the bottom can prevent the quilt from regaining moisture and prevent the cold air from reaching people directly.

Okay!

He took out the things.

"Here, braised pig intestines, your favorite!"

I gave her a paper bag.

Xiaoli pursed her lips when she heard this and didn't believe it: "Huh, who said I like to eat large intestines? It's definitely not the case. It must be Tianfu Hao sauce elbow!"

He opened it and looked at it, and smiled: "I knew it, it must be this one, and it's better for my second brother!"

But at this time, the elbow was frozen and hard, and there was no way to eat it now. Fortunately, it was cut into slices.

"There are also a few cans of braised pork, keep them for you to eat. This is brown sugar, candies, these are all chocolate."

He took out everything.

Except for brown sugar, which is rationed, everything else is free of charge, but the price is a bit high.

Xiaoli smiled when she saw this, and then asked: "What about you? You won't give them all to me! You can take half of them back!"

"Okay, you won't be hungry anywhere you go! Everything I bring to you must be for you."

After hearing this, Xiaoli thought for a moment and knew that this second brother was powerful.

Without saying anything, he put the things next to the pillow on a quilt.

After thinking about it for a moment, he asked, "Brother, would you like to give a bottle to the instructor and company commander?"

Yang Xiaole nodded.

Upon seeing this, Xiaoli took her things and went out, leaving him alone here.

But after a while she came back angrily.

"Instructor, no!"

When Yang Xiaole saw this, he smiled and said, "Forget it if you don't want to, as long as it comes to your mind."

Seeing this, Xiaoli could only nod her head and put the things down.

"Brother, tell me about your family!"

Pulling him to sit down, he asked.

Yang Xiaole was there talking to the other party about the situation.

More than an hour passed quickly, and it passed in a short while.

I heard the sound of a whistle coming from outside.

"Brother, it's time to eat! It gets dark early here, and there's no electricity! You have to eat and go to bed quickly!"

Xiaoli heard the voice urging her.

Then he said: "You use my lunch box!"

After that, he took him out.

But when she left, she hesitated: "Brother, this meat is frozen. I have to take it to defrost it. There are so many people!"

It doesn’t matter if you bring it, and it doesn’t matter if you don’t bring it.

Yang Xiaole said nonchalantly: "Take it with you. You can get some more for yourself. Just eat more."

In this kind of collective life of the corps, it is not very possible to live alone.

Especially in the early days.

After a while, everyone will have nothing to eat. If anyone has a bite of meat, it will basically be the same.

At most, a few people who are very familiar with the game will share a little bit.

It becomes a rule.

Xiaoli nodded and went out with a can of canned meat.

After coming out, people rushed to the only wooden house, where the cooking team was obviously.

While walking, Yang Xiaole also knew that this was indeed the place where the cooking class was.

"Xiao Li!"

When they came here, many girls greeted Yang Xiaoli.

"Yuanyuan, Fangfang! This is the second brother! Brother, these are my classmates."

Yang Xiaoli naturally also introduced it.

"Hello, second brother!"

Several girls were there smiling and saying hello.

Yang Xiaole also smiled and agreed: "Hello!"

He didn't have much resentment towards these women for instigating his younger sister.

The wave of going to the countryside is getting higher and higher. There are too many people like them, both men and women.

To put it harshly.

Most of the students now are like this.

They were also the ones causing the trouble.

They are the ones who took the initiative to come to such a difficult place.

It may be a bit one-sided to judge these people based entirely on right or wrong.

"Okay, let's get some food quickly!"

Xiaoli urged, and everyone went inside.

The place is not very big, and it can accommodate up to twenty or thirty people if they squeeze in. It is obviously much warmer inside.

The person who had eaten left immediately.

The rest of the people lined up there. Xiaoli took her things and ran into the cooking class.

Yang Xiaole waited there quietly.

After about ten minutes, she came back with the lunch box and went to the cooking window to add more cabbage and potato soup.

I came back with four corn buns.

"Come on, it'll get cold soon."

Yang Xiaole smiled and followed back.

What is he here for?
Back at Caowozi, there were already about ten people crowded in the room.

They all ate there quickly.

"Yuanyuan, Fangfang, eat some meat quickly."

After coming in, Xiaoli opened the lunch box and urged her former classmates.

The men hesitated.

I'm really greedy.

I've been here for half a month, and I've already finished all the food I brought. After all, it was really cold when I first came here.

You can only feel better if you eat something!

"Hurry up, it's getting cold!"

Seeing this, Xiaoli urged her.

"Thank you!"

Several people looked at each other and then took a piece!
Not big meat!
One person in a room shared a small piece, and Xiaoli came back and urged: "Brother, let's eat! It will get cold in a while."

Yang Xiaole looked at it, took the two steamed buns and started eating them.

Everyone else is two.

It should be the ration here.

The braised pork soup has been mixed with the cabbage and potato soup.

He took a sip of the soup and handed the lunch box to the younger sister.

There is basically no meat in it, but there is a layer of pork fat floating on it.

It's much better than other people's lunch boxes where you can hardly see any oily flowers.

However, Yang Xiaole knew that this situation would probably improve in the year after next. After all, this was a grain-producing area.

Pig farming will definitely be in the future.

Because it was cold, everyone ate quickly!
But it gets dark quickly!
After eating, Xiaoli took him out: "Brother, I will take you to the instructor!"

After a while, we arrived at the grass house next door.

There were a bunch of women inside at this time.

Didn't let him in.

Instead, he stood at the door and shouted.

After a while, the instructor came out.

"Instructor, please arrange a place for my brother to sleep!"

The instructor smiled when he saw this: "Okay, come here! I will take you to the platoon leader and them."

Yang Xiaole took the things and followed him to a thatched cottage at the far end.

"Zhang Liang!"

When we came to the door, the instructor shouted, and soon a young man in his thirties came out.

"Instructor!"

"This is Xiaoli's brother, let him sleep here at night!"

"I got it, Sarah!"

The other party spoke with a Sichuan accent and agreed with a smile.

Seeing this, the instructor smiled at Yang Xiaole and said, "Just make do with them at night. When the camp is built next year, you will have a place to sleep."

Yang Xiaole smiled casually when he saw this; "It's okay, we used to be from the countryside."

After the agreement was made, the instructor smiled and said: "Okay, go to bed early tonight! I'll go back first."

It's too cold outside.

And it’s very windy here at night!

Seeing this, Xiaoli said: "Brother, I'm going back first! Let's talk about it tomorrow morning!"

Yang Xiaole nodded, the girls' dormitory was indeed not very convenient.

After watching the other party leave, he followed Zhang Liang inside.

The same pattern as before, just better because he is the platoon leader.

Everyone else looks like raw melon and eggs.

After coming in, Zhang Liang smiled and said, "You sleep with me tonight!"

Yang Xiaole smiled when he saw this, took out a cigarette, and handed one to the other party.

Zhang Liang happily took it: "I haven't smoked in a long time!"

Seeing this, Yang Xiaole took a match to light the other person, and then asked the others: "What about you? Do you want to smoke or not?"

"Pump! Pump!"

Suddenly five or six people screamed and wanted to be beaten!

Yang Xiaole naturally gave them one and ordered one for himself.

He smiled and said, "Where are you all from?"

"We are from Tianjin."

"Allah……"

I heard it was from the Shanghai Stock Exchange.

South J's

There are also BJ's.

……

In general, there are only a few cities.

Because the people who came here in the early days were mainly from coastal areas, and the others were sent to the northwest, grasslands or Yun Province.

Between men, sometimes a cigarette brings them into a relationship.

Everyone chatted there for a while, then took off their cotton-padded jackets and went to sleep.

Zhang Liang is the platoon leader and sleeps at the door.

Because he has to take care of people and prevent them from running away in the middle of the night.

The room was dark, and the sound of chatting could be heard from time to time, but there were also people who were not chatting.

Yang Xiaole was lying on the bed with only one head exposed, while the others had their heads buried in the bed.

Just to make the heat dissipate slower.

By the way, it is really painful to sleep in a grass nest when the temperature is more than 30 degrees below zero.

cold!
Unimaginably cold.

It would be slightly better if it were an earth wall. After all, earth walls can actually keep warm.

But this grass nest has no use.

Fortunately, these people slept in three or two people on the same bed, almost hugging each other, so they could barely resist the cold.

But it’s also uncomfortable.

Although Yang Xiaole was not very sleepy, he fell asleep after lying there for a while.

……

Early the next morning, the sound of a trumpet came out, and everyone hurriedly got up.

Yang Xiaole was also woken up.

Looking at the dim light outside, I knew it was time to train in the morning.

We can only get up together.

Sure enough, I saw people in the camp lined up neatly.

"All teammates: stand at attention, take a break, stand at attention, turn left, run and walk... Yao 21, Yao 21..."

Running around the field there.

Not very fast.

Yang Xiaole looked around and saw the instructor standing there and walked over.

"Instructor!"

The other party turned to look and said with a smile: "You didn't freeze last night, did you?"

Yang Xiaole smiled and said: "If you are a platoon leader, it will be like a big stove. It won't be cold."

indeed!

Zhang Liang looks to be in his thirties.

The instructor was very happy and said with a smile: "You are so young!"

Yang Xiaole instantly understood that Zhang Liang was not married.

After looking at the training team, he said: "Instructor, I have a friend here who I have to go see. He is not here. I will come back today and tomorrow to see my sister."

"Then you don't want to say hello? How can you go back?"

"No, just tell her. Don't cry when you leave!"

Yang Xiaole shook his head, and then said: "Don't worry when you go back. I said there will be a car to take the educated youth back this morning. I will go with them then."

The instructor was not too surprised when he heard this.

If it were in the past, there would be basically no way to pass through such deep snow.

But now there are so many educated youths coming, and each company is about ten kilometers apart.

And now is the time to prepare for war and famine.

Once it snows heavily, the company will be responsible for digging a road that can barely allow trucks to pass, just for wartime tasks.

There are only a hundred or ten people in a company, but the entire Beidahuang is densely packed with companies.

Although the task is difficult, it can be accomplished.

Thinking of this, I stopped trying to persuade him.

"Okay, pay attention to yourself and don't run around. Also, if you find it's snowing, come back immediately. This is no joke."

Yang Xiaole nodded: "Okay, I'll go back first! If the car leaves, I won't be able to go back."

After saying hello, he left the camp directly and came to the road dug out on the side.

Walk towards the north.

Now that he knows there is a direct road here, he will naturally not go to the regiment headquarters to make a circuit.

And he didn't do it just to go back, but to go into the mountains to have fun.

At the same time, it is also to recognize the way, so as to make it easier to come and go in the future.

If an ordinary person takes this path and is not familiar with it, he might be able to kill himself.

But to him, it really doesn't matter.

At his current speed, he can reach his brigade in 300 minutes, covering 15 meters per minute and 50 kilometers.

After coming out, I walked for a while and entered the space directly.

Half an hour later, Yang Xiaole appeared at the foot of the mountain.

Looking at the rolling hills to the left and right, he smiled and said, "Here I come, little cuties!"

Then he rushed directly into the mountains with a smile.
