Chapter 451

When the commune rewarded the production team with tractors, their family's reputation was bad. The team leader arranged for all the young people in the team to learn how to use them, but did not arrange for them to learn. As a result, no one learned how to use them, and they made the team leader very angry. Only when Xia Chan stood up to learn did everyone stop objecting.

But in fact, they are very smart and learn quickly, so they learned to drive a tractor very quickly, and then they took turns to deliver the goods.

Unless Xia Chan wants to go shopping, she doesn't want to waste time on the road.

On this day, when it was Zhou Chi's day off, Jin Pengfei said he would take everyone to look at houses near the junior high school in the town. They were studying in the village primary school, and in the future they could only enroll in the junior high school in the town. If they wanted to enroll in the junior high school in the county, they would have to find someone to act as a matchmaker.

But they think that a child’s grades are determined by the child’s efforts, not the school. Even in the best schools, there are students with poor grades.

Even though the family conditions were so poor in the past, didn’t Xia Chan still achieve good results?
If they can't do what the summer cicadas can do, it only means that they are not as good as others and cannot blame the environment.

So they all decided to let the children proceed step by step. If their grades were good, they could skip a grade. If their grades were poor, they would slowly move up a grade until they could stop studying altogether.

Their daughter is not old enough to go to primary school yet, but Jin Pengfei and his wife are already preparing for her future. He doesn't have to worry about her studying in the village primary school because they can go to and from school together.

But when she was in junior high school, he really didn't feel comfortable letting a little girl of eleven or twelve years old live in the school dormitory and not know if she was bullied.

Jin Pengfei has already made inquiries around the school, including who has a house for sale and how much it costs. He has found out everything. Today, he is taking everyone there to see if there is any house that anyone likes.

Otherwise, he would buy the biggest house and wait for everyone's children to go to junior high school and live there, with each person having a room, or one room for girls and one room for boys. That's also fine.

We arrived near the junior high school and parked the tractor in an empty space. We all walked inside together. No one brought the children with them. The children were playing in the yard, accompanied by Xiao Mimi and Grandpa and Grandma Xiao.

There were six adults coming together, so no one dared to look down on them.

Everyone looked at all the houses that were to be sold here, and Xia Chan selected two, giving one to Zhou Chi and one to Zhou Zhuo. When they came of age, she would give them the house certificates and let them manage it themselves.

Seeing this, others also bought houses for their children. Each child had one. Whoever bought the largest house would decorate it as a base for the children.

Although junior high school lasts for three years, everyone is in different grades, so the process of studying in junior high school will be relatively long. This base will be used for many years, so it still needs to be decorated better.

And after all the children in their family graduate from junior high school and no longer need this base, they can rent out the rooms here. After all, they have been renovated and can be rented out directly.

After buying the house, completing the formalities and changing the locks, everyone went home. As for decorating the house, it was still too early. Even though the eldest Zhou Chi was in junior high school, there were still four or five years left. There was no need to rush and it was okay to decorate it in two years.

Anyway, they would definitely let their own children live there first, and then rent out the house after all their own children entered high school. After Su Yu divorced Jin Pengfei, she had not come to the house, so Xia Chan did not know the progress bar of Su Qin and the heroine. After all, they got married at the end of last year, and it was almost a year, and they did not know if they had any children.

As long as Su Yu has not brought the male protagonist home to meet her parents, the male protagonist and the female protagonist will not meet, and the Su family's brothers and sisters will still be safe. I just don't know what kind of chemical reaction will happen after the male and female protagonists meet.

Now that Su Yu is not here, Xia Chan doesn’t know about these things.

Whether the male and female protagonists can meet has nothing to do with her, and not knowing their news is not a big deal.

Time passed quickly. Although everyone's days were similar and there was nothing special about them, everyone made some money every day and was very content.

November was soon here, and the summer cicadas began to harvest cassava and konjac. Since various things were planted in the yard and there was enough for the family to eat, all the things harvested from the hilltop, except for the summer fruits and vegetables, were sent to the vendors in the vegetable market one by one.

If you talk about boredom, then those office workers who repeat the same actions every day are boring. They wander around the mountains every day and do various things. It’s not that boring. Every day is busy and fulfilling.

It snows very early here, usually in November and December. This year it snowed in mid-November. Fortunately, the crops in their fields have been harvested, so the snow has no effect on them. The greenhouse at the chicken farm has also been checked after the weather got cold. Now that it is snowing, they can just light up the stove to keep warm.

The brothers were responsible for the firewood at home. They went up the mountain to pick up branches and cut down dead trees. Xia Chan and Zhou Qizhi also went to the yard to cut a lot of bamboo to use as firewood.

There are really a lot of bamboos in the yard, and they reproduce a lot every year. If they are not cut down, the summer cicadas are afraid that the bamboos will affect the growth space of other trees.

There are also trimmed fruit trees and tree branches, which are all sources of firewood for the family. Although everyone needs to heat a kang after the separation, and the pig farm and chicken farm also need heating, there is still enough firewood.

If it really is not enough, she can just go to the yard and cut down a few trees. The yard is her private space, and cutting down trees inside will not affect anything outside.

After the snow, the summer fruit and vegetable business became good. Wild vegetables, mushrooms and summer cicadas of other seasons also began to slowly go out. Like last year, she delivers goods once a week. As for how the stall owners arrange it, she doesn't worry about it. After all, it's a matter of payment and goods. They get the money after delivering the goods, and it doesn't matter how the stall owners sell them.

This year, the chickens, ducks and geese raised outside have started to hatch, because many have been hatched at home. After selling the old ones, we can still have the young ones to replace them, and we also keep some of the old ones for ourselves to eat.

Just like free-range chickens, those that have been raised for two or three years are definitely tastier than those that have been raised for a few months, so she left some for each family, processed them and froze them in the snow, and when they wanted to eat them, they could just take them home and thaw them before eating.

After the snow fell, Xia Chan and his friends made a lot of dumplings, buns, steamed buns, and steamed bread and froze them outside. They also froze a lot of meat and poultry.

I also pickled a lot of meat, planning to smoke it into bacon and then send it to the Xiao family.

Now Xiao Mimi is almost in the third trimester of her pregnancy, so everyone will stop making a fuss and spend the New Year peacefully in the village. Xiao's father and mother called before and said that they didn't rest much this year and had been saving up their vacation time so that they could take a few more days off during the New Year and then come here to celebrate the New Year so that they can have a good family reunion.
