However, there are also some quick-thinking people in the crowd.

After weighing it up, hesitatingly asked:

"Lu Zhiqing, what about this market? What if the fish are grown or the vegetables are grown and they can't be sold?"

This was a good question, and it successfully stirred up the crowd.

Even those who had raised their hands in support before also looked at Lu Miao nervously.

Yes!

If there is really a way out and they really want to do it well, they will have the strength to do it hard.

But if you are busy for a year and the results are produced but the things cannot be sold, wouldn’t it be a waste?

Lu Miao knew everyone's concerns.

After pondering for a while, she clapped her hands to gather everyone's thoughts:

"I recognize the county commissioners and can communicate with them if necessary."

"If it doesn't work in the county, then sell it to Beijing City. Everyone should know that I am from Beijing City and I have some connections there."

Fu Jingyou and He Hongjin both knew Lu Miao's family background, but the rest of the team didn't know the details.

But it doesn't matter, Lu Miao is an educated youth and comes from Beijing.

She had grown up in the capital city since she was a child, and there must be many connections there. If one connection doesn't work, there must be another one.

The members had no doubts about the "marketability" problem mentioned by Lu Miao, but then there was a new problem.

"Lu Zhiqing, Beijing is a big city! It's far away from us, right? How do you send the fish there?"

"If we let the big guys carry it, they won't be afraid of getting tired, but they will be worried that the distance will be too long and the fish will be dead, smelly, or spoiled!"

"Yeah yeah!"

The west threshing floor was noisy again, and everyone was talking at once.

Lu Miao raised her hand twice, but failed to attract everyone's attention.

Finally, He Hongjin stood up and shouted:
"Stop yelling! Listen first!"

Everyone then became quiet one after another.

Lu Miao continued: "Beijing is one or two thousand kilometers away from us, so it's not possible to pick it by manpower. Everyone needs to open their minds. Doesn't the north bring coal to us by train every year? Of course we can also transport it by train and cargo ship!"

I didn’t know who it was in the crowd, so another question came up:
"Can the station be willing?"

"You have to "talk" whether you are willing or not, and you have to "negotiate" until she is willing! Everyone wants to have a good life, but is it said that a good life can only be achieved? Everything has to be fought for! "

"If you don't fight or try, it's like putting food in your mouth. You purse your mouth and don't eat, and you still complain that you are hungry!"

Lu Miao gave the final blow and asked everyone:

"Do you have confidence? Can you open your mouth and eat this mouthful of food!"

"Have!"

"Have!!"

All the doubts that should have been solved were almost solved, and Lu Miao's metaphor was too apt, and the sound of people's voices suddenly sounded in the west threshing floor.

"Hey--"

Lu Miao rarely showed a cheerful smile and raised his voice:
"Then you guys will follow the team's rules in the future. Now, let's divide the meat first!"

"Oh! Share the meat!"

Someone shouted, and the west threshing floor became completely lively.

The makeshift water-burning stove was emitting hot mist, and the pork fans that had just been opened were also emitting hot smoke.

The members of the commune talked about dividing the pork, raising fish and growing vegetables. The production team was full of people, and the atmosphere of humanity and New Year suddenly increased.

According to Chen Guifen's arrangement, Lu Miao and Tian Guihua returned to He's house with their children.

Chen Guifen asked Lu Miao not to go back yet, saying that she had divided the meat into equal portions and was heating oil at home to fry the dumplings. Then she would have some ready-made food and take some back to celebrate the New Year.

Lu Miao agreed.

On the threshing floor, Brother He scratched and sharpened the two meat-cutting knives in his hand twice. When he was free, he turned his head and said to Fu Jingyou:
"You are a very good wife, and you are really sharp-tongued."

Brother He also added:
"No wonder you are so curious. Neither our factory director nor deputy factory director can speak like her." Fu Jingyou straightened her chest and looked proud, but she said:
"It's not bad. The two sisters-in-law are also very nice."

Brother He nodded and said with a smile:
"Yes."

He is satisfied with his wife, she knows how to live a good life, and she even gave birth to a baby.

Only Brother He sighed, shook his head and worked silently, and stopped talking.

On the other side, Lu Miao and Tian Guihua returned to He's house. They closed the door and gathered their children around the brazier to warm themselves and eat nuts.

Lu Miao wanted to hug Minjie, but Tian Guihua knew that she was pregnant with a child. The child was not serious, so she was afraid of disturbing her, so she did not dare to let her hug her.

Lu Miao had no choice but to give up.

After looking at Minjie for a while and then at Minmin, Lu Miao asked:

"Is this the eldest brother's child?"

Tian Guihua nodded, "Yes, she is six years old this year, her name is Minmin."

"The name sounds pretty good. Doesn't the briquette have a serious name?"

"Have."

Tian Guihua nodded quickly and "cleared" her son's name.

"Call Minjie."

Lu Miao said "Huh", "One is Minmin and the other is Minjie, why are they so close?"

Tian Guihua peeled the nuts and fed them to Minjie, smiling and saying:
"The He family happens to be a smart family, so the name came easily."

Lu Miao said "Oh" and nodded.

I understand somewhat.

But in this case, Minmin's name seems a bit random.

Thinking that it seemed to be a common thing to favor boys over girls at this time, Lu Miao became a little soft-hearted and couldn't help but pay more attention to Min Min.

The little girl's hair was dry, yellow and messy, and her eyes were swollen.

I heard that my mother has gone back to her parents' home. Considering that Brother He is a rough man, he probably won't be able to comb the child's hair.

Lu Miao has been to He's house many times. Before Fu Jingyou and He Hong went to the mountains, she stayed overnight at He's house.

She knew a little about the distribution of the He family and where things were placed.

After finding the half-broken comb from Chen Guifen's house, Lu Miao pulled out two dark red strings from the sewing box.

She sat back in the main room and waved to Minmin. She confirmed what she thought of with Tian Guihua:

"Sister-in-law, should she call me aunt?"

Tian Guihua smiled and said yes.

Lu Miao also laughed and continued to wave to Minmin, "Minmin, come to Auntie's place."

Minmin didn't recognize life, so she came close to her obediently.

Lu Miao asked her to stand in front of him and held her in his arms. He held her soft hair and combed it smoothly, and put two braids on the back of her head in a decent manner.

"Sister-in-law, take a look, what do you think?"

Lu Miao pushed Minmin forward.

Tian Guihua nodded, "Much neater."

Minmin touched the pigtail. Although she couldn't see it, it was very strange.

Her mother never combed her pigtails. She just wiped her face with water twice when she got up every morning...

Minmin felt strange in her heart, touched her pigtails and looked at Lu Miao curiously.

Seeing that she kept staring at him, Lu Miao grabbed a handful of red dates and nuts for her and put them in his pocket.

"There is a small bench in the kitchen. Go and bring one over. Come sit here and warm your hands together."

Min Min ran away as fast as she could. (End of chapter)
