On the correct posture for farming in the last days

Chapter 43
"Hey, you, what are you talking about on a happy day?" Zhou Zhigao looked at her.

"That's right, let's not talk about this, eat and drink. Let's have a good day today. Don't do anything tomorrow, and work the day after tomorrow." Ma Fen said with a smile.

Everyone also laughed, really can't think too much.Fortunately, it is good that my relatives are still there.

Who can live without fear and sorrow?It's useless to think too much.

This meal, the whole family ate a lot, mainly because the four adults drank too much...

The four little ones had no choice but to sigh and help them all fall asleep, and then deal with the mess in the room.

It took most of the day for the couscous, and the house was already in chaos.

After the distribution, Xiao Chen and Zhou Ning went to feed the open-mouthed beast. Taking advantage of the fact that they were warm and the temperature outside was a little higher in the day, they quickly set up a stove to burn snow in the yard. You have to drink a lot of water, but just one drink is enough.

Chickens and geese have a little bit less, pigs don’t need to drink water, and more pig food soup is enough.

In the house, the sisters packed up their things, and put the meatballs directly in the south room to freeze. There was a spoonful and a half from Zhou Zhiqiang's family, so they packed them up first.

Put the steamed meat in a large vat prepared before, cover it and put it away.

After the dining table is cleared, it is only left to wash the dishes and tidy up the house and mop the floor.

Zhou Jing chose to tidy up and mop the floor, while Liu Ya resigned herself to washing the pots and dishes.

I really don't want to do this job.

Finally, after everyone finished their work, they got together and sat at the dining table where they had just eaten.

It's a little warmer here than inside, but now that the boiler is burning, it's still not cold.

Everyone wears thin woolen sweaters or fleece sweaters in the house.

Xiao Chen is just a shirt.

"Come on, let's tell a story." Liu Ya lay on the table: "Zhou Ning, you go first."

In fact, she liked to play with Zhou Ning when she was a child, but she didn't get along with her cousin very much, after all, she was a little older.

As for Zhou Ning, she was really cute when she was a child, a baby carved in pink and jade, but it's a pity that she gradually grew crooked.

It's not ugly, it's just crooked.

Lazy and unwilling to work, skipping classes and reading, and finally dropping out of school.

He refused to work part-time, even if he was arranged to work in a factory, let alone work in the fields at home.

He wants to get rich all day long, so he only asks Liu Ya for two things, asking for things or borrowing money.

Gradually they drifted away.

But fortunately, this child is still a bit fair, Liu Ya just didn't bother to talk to him before, and he wasn't really disgusted.

But Mao Feng is the opposite, that guy is very good at talking, and he talks a lot.

Not big-minded, big-hearted, greedy, wretched, whatever.

Liu Ya doesn't like him, and so does his younger sister, who cheats and plays tricks, with eyes above her head, so let's count it as disgusting anyway.

Zhou Ning drank his saliva and began to tell what happened in the county.

"Anyway, I feel that the management is getting looser and looser, and I probably can't manage it. There are too many people robbing things. Didn't something happen next door to my house, and then it was empty, but before we came back, someone lived again. We I saw it once, it was a few men, and they were not from the county because of their accents. They didn’t look like a family either. They probably escaped.”

"Is there someone who escaped?" Liu Ya sighed.

"Yes, not only that one, there should be other ones too." Zhou Ning nodded.

"You should move back as soon as possible." Xiao Chen said, "The situation will probably be even worse next summer."

Although he once told the villagers that too many people had died and there would be no shortage of supplies, what if there were not enough people above?

What's more, the reserve materials are consumed a little less, if they can't be regenerated.To put it simply, if you collect corn and sorghum, you can't eat them directly, right?Your processing.

"But there are so many things at home." Zhou Ning was worried.

"Those modern things are just waste now. Look at the current situation, can they be restored in three to five years?" Xiao Chen asked: "By the day they are restored, those things will be useless in the first place."

Electrical stuff is so amazing, if you use it all the time, it might really be like some kind of Smith water heater, your grandpa used it or something.

But once you don't use it for a few months, it will break.

If you don't use it for a few years, it must be useless.

Zhou Ning nodded, thinking about what else he could bring back besides food.

"The most important thing now is food, clothing and housing. If I live, I think the old house is okay. In summer, the roof can be strengthened. So bring back clothes, bedding, blankets, mats, etc., and food. Some necessary tools Just pull it back." Xiao Chen said.

"Isn't there a family in Caojiaao who has a truck? We saw it when we went there before. We can hire him for a day." Liu Ya said.

"You don't need to hire them. After all, it's not good to see something. How about borrowing it? I'll drive it." Xiao Chen said.

"Quickly tell me to calm down. You are a person who drives a supercar off-road, and you are from a village, so that's all you see." Liu Ya said.

Zhou Jing listened quietly the whole time, thinking that she had claimed to be an adult, but she was still not good enough.She couldn't think of these things.

It has to be brothers and sisters.

At this time, a voice came from the loudspeaker.

It was obviously not the village head, and he didn't hear clearly who it was for a while, but the man was very eager to say that someone was outside the village and told the village militia to go quickly.

The four of Liu Ya listened, looked at each other, and hurriedly put on their clothes.

Soon, everyone came out.Zhou Ning also carried a stick, the purpose is obvious.

The broadcast continued, and people came out one after another.

Everyone quickly gathered towards the exit of the village wall.

It was soon seen that there were indeed seven or eight people outside, but they didn't look like any murderers.

The main reason is that there is an old lady inside, she looks not young, these people are wearing thick clothes, and there are down jackets, obviously there are a lot of clothes inside.

The ordinary down jackets of the past were not warm enough.

Many of the down jackets Liu Ya bought were worn in polar regions. Of course, this is a digression.

Some were military overcoats, and the other was a padded jacket. Although the style wasn't very good, it looked warm.

Seeing someone coming, one of the eight people came over: "We are from Xiaowangzhuang. If we are fleeing, we will find Zhou Zhibing's family."

From Changxing Village, someone replied: "It's too late, there is no one in his house."

"Ah? There's no one else?? Brother, aren't you coaxing me?" The man was obviously shocked.

"What are you doing to coax you? Many people froze to death before, didn't your village have one?" Zhou Zhong would come over now, and after looking at it for a long time, he suddenly asked, "Is that Wang Liu?"

The man who was named came out: "Hey, I also see that you look familiar."

"The year before last, did you grow peppers in your village? You have a lot of them, don't you?" Zhou Zhong said.

That Wang Liu sighed: "It's because my family has a lot, because the land is full of peppers, it's not that there is not much food. The disaster came quickly, and more than half of the village died. The leftovers have nothing to eat. This is not everywhere. Find a way to survive."
