Chapter 77:
In order to realize the big words made in front of the villagers, the people in the factory have all played a great spirit. Even the kerosene lamps are ready, and they all have the consciousness of working overtime at night.
After finishing your work during the day, at noon or evening, you have to squeeze time to go to the agricultural machinery station and test the new plough with other people's tools.
Everyone's attentiveness and the villagers are in the eyes. Even if Yao Xuewei did not take the initiative to ask, the village head and others silently reduced Yao Xuewei's workload.
Not only that, several village cadres also comforted everyone: "Don't worry, it doesn't matter if you can't get it out."
"The villagers just like to watch the bustle. It doesn't mean anything else. Don't think too much..."
This has a soft and hard attitude, which is unspeakable.
Within a few days, this group of technical factions in the manufacturing factory found out the new plough and sowing gadgets were also transformed by Yao Xuewei and others.
Now, the talents of the manufacturing factory are calm, otherwise they would have been praised by fellow villagers every day before. They are really embarrassed.
Now in the face of the praise of the villagers, they can also straighten their chests and say modestly, "Nothing, it's just a little change. It's good to help you..."
When Harmoniously stayed in the village for a month and couldn't help the colleagues in the publicity department before, they also began to contribute. Before leaving, they also contacted the familiar local newspaper.
The reporter sat to pick up their car. After taking photos and interviewing, everyone just left together. On the way back, the reporter had to talk to the people of the manufacturer about the harvest of going to the countryside.
When it is publicized, their factory will be another model. Although they worked hard for the village, their factories did not lose money.
"You are still good at writing, and you can think of this trick. When we get into the newspaper, we will return to the factory with honor.
"We can overwhelm other factories this time. Obviously, when we organized this at the beginning, we didn't think so much. After saying that, the comrade smiled 'hey' twice, obviously because he got cheap and sold well.
"When the newspaper comes out later, I'll buy one and put it at home. This is also the first time I go back to the newspaper."
On the way back, everyone was very relaxed. Because they did practical things, the villagers took care of them, and took special care of them when they were assigned tasks later, so everyone was not tired.
Their labor was successfully completed. When they returned to the factory, they had to replace the next group of people. You have to work for at least one month a year. According to the current rules, Yao Xuewei and others have to go next year.
When Yao Xuewei came home, she saw that Zhao Mingli was also there.
"Why did you come back earlier than us? Obviously, I'll go first."
"I came back the day before yesterday." Zhao Mingli said, "You don't look at the people sent by our troops. They are all strong laborers. We have completed all the tasks ahead of schedule."
These are not only strong laborers, but also heavy idol burdens. Even if they are exhausted, they have to hold them in front of fellow villagers, but these Zhao Mingli will definitely not say anything.
"Why didn't you buy something when you came back from the village? Buy it directly in the village, which is more cost-effective than the black market." Zhao Mingli pointed to the chicken circled up in the corner of the yard and said, "See? This chicken is fat. I brought it back."
"If there are only people from the factory in the car, I will definitely buy it. But there are also newspaper reporters who are in the same car with us, and we also take photos of us. We are afraid that the impact will not be good at that time, so we won't buy it.
Originally, the manufacturer had handed in a full score in the countryside this time, and everyone didn't want to be deducted two points for this small matter.
"Yo! What's the matter? Can you still publish the newspaper?"
Yao Xuewei's tone was modest and explained with a bad expression, "It's nothing, just..."
After listening to the whole process, Zhao Mingli was speechless.
"Okay, go and pack up. When you are ready, you can sleep. I'll call you when dinner is ready. I'll boil hot water in the pot, kill the chicken later, and we'll stew the chicken tonight. We have worked hard for a month, and we have to make up for it.
Yao Xuewei went back to the room with her big bag of luggage, packed up all the parts and pieces, and began to sleep. When she smelled the smell of chicken soup, she slowly went downstairs to prepare for dinner.
In the kitchen, Zhao Qingshan is the cooker. Zhao Mingli cut vegetables and beat it down. Yao Duoduo helped to burn the fire. At the dinner table, Zhao Yu and Zhao Le were writing big words, and there was another child sitting aside with his head and looking.
Seeing Yao Xuewei going downstairs, several children enthusiastically called her 'mother'. After Yao Xuewei answered, she quietly walked to Zhao Mingli and asked in a low voice, "Whose family is that black child?" Why haven't I seen it before?"
"Isn't it in our house?" Zhao Mingli said uncertainly.
Yao Xuewei was speechless: "What nonsense you talking about!"
"This child's name is Yao Li."
As soon as Zhao Mingli finished speaking, Yao Xuewei's head immediately became big and shocked, "Shoun't he be in Yaojia Village?" Why did you run here?"
"Your parents and others, at the beginning of this year, no one left. The child was left unattended. He had hundreds of meals in the village for two months, and then found us here." Zhao Mingli also comforted, "People die like lights out. Your enmity with your parents... Forget it, don't be too sad."
Yao Xuewei was not sad at all, but the relationship between her children and her parents was always complicated. At this time, she looked ruthless and said, "The point is not my dead parents, but this child." Why did you stay in our house for no reason?
Yao Duoduo said guiltyly, "When Yao Li came. Neither you nor Dad are at home. He had nowhere else to go, so I brought him back.
With that, Yao Duoduo also felt reasonable and analyzed, "We are the only relatives in Huishui and Aunt Lihua, but Aunt Lihua has remarried with his sister, and he definitely won't care about him... You can't let him go to beg for food on the street."
Zhao Mingli: "Duoduo is right."
So a little child, not to mention that Yao Duoduo can't bear it, Yao Xuewei can't drive people away with that ruthless hand, but she is a little reluctant to raise this child.
"I don't know what they think. I can't feed myself, so I have to raise a small one..."
Yao Xuewei has also paid attention to the matter of Yaojia Village before. Yao's father and others borrowed money from the village to build a hut. Although they have been good for decades, their resilience is still beyond Yao Xuewei's expectation. The transplanting seedlings and farming made them half tired, but the people quickly recovered...
The two of them worked hard to farm, not only paying back the money borrowed from the village, but also didn't know where they picked up an orphan to raise it.
Seeing that their life was okay, Yao Xuewei didn't pay attention to them anymore.
Unexpectedly, if they didn't pay attention for a moment, they gave a big trouble.
Yao Xuewei poked Zhao Mingli on the shoulder and asked, "What do you think of this child?"
"Nake it up. There is no shortage of his food. Our family has four children, and he doesn't have much more." Zhao Mingli said indifferently.
"There are too many children in the family." Yao Xuewei frowned.
"Other people still have seven or eight children. Who thinks so much?" Zhao Mingli boldly guessed, "You don't like five children, you don't like Yao Li, do you?"
"You know." Yao Xuewei couldn't help kicking each other.
After whispering, Yao Xuewei stood at the door of the kitchen and waved to the child.
"Yao Li, come here. My aunt has something to ask you."
Although Yao Li was in the living room, he had already run to the kitchen and his ears quietly ribbed. Hearing Yao Xuewei calling him, he immediately jumped off the stool and ran to Yao Xuewei, waiting nervously for Yao Xuewei to pronounce his sentence.
"Don't be afraid. I just want to ask why your grandparents don't have it." Yao Xuewei said calmly.
Grandma died of illness. Grandpa... I don't know. As soon as I get up, the people will be gone, and then the villagers helped bury Grandpa."
After relying on each other for many years, Yao Li said that his eyes were red, and the tears fell off. He whispered, "I haven't raised Grandpa and they were gone..."
Yao Xuewei curled her lips and was such a little child. Who expected him to retire? I don't know how the old Yao family taught him.
Although she was dissatisfied with Yao's father and mother, she would not say right and wrong in front of the child. Seeing Yao Li crying patheticly, Yao Xuewei pinched her eyebrows irritably.
"Forget it, let's eat first. Let's talk about other things after dinner."

Chapter 78
I worked hard in the countryside for more than a month. Now Yao Xuewei and Zhao Mingli are back, and the dinner that day was particularly rich.
A large pot of chicken soup was placed in the middle, and a plate of sausages was cut and two dishes were stir-fried.
"My mother and Dad have worked hard. They eat a chicken leg alone! Two more bowls of soup!"
"Thank you, Duoduo~"
I haven't eaten well at home for a while, and I began to cook happily with chicken soup one by one.
However, it was when Yao Li was worried. He didn't touch the chicken stewed at home at all. He only picked up a chopsticks of vegetarian dishes and ate a bowl of rice.
Before Yao Xuewei spoke to his belongings, Yao Duoduo and others didn't do anything to help pick up vegetables. He let him feel pity and tried to soften Yao Xuewei's heart.
After absent-mindedly finished the meal, Yao Xuewei didn't expect what to do with the child.
Don't think about the orphanage. There is no such welfare for the time being, and it is even less likely to give it to another family for adoption. Even if a couple who can't have a child, they can get a careless child casually. Which round can Yao Li...
When she put down her chopsticks and saw that Yao Li was still sitting restlessly waiting for her answer, Yao Xuewei had no choice but to say, "Forget it, stay with me for the time being, and then I'll figure it for you later."
Yao Li can't be allowed to live and die. He can only live at home so bluntly.
Without being kicked out immediately, Yao Li quietly breathed a sigh of relief, squeezed a flattering smile on his face, and said obediently as much as possible, "Thank you, aunt."
"You're welcome." Yao Xuewei tried her best to make her smile look natural.
Although Zhao Qingshan's children were also adopted by themselves, they were voluntary and voluntary. However, the child was inexplicable and had to accept it after being kidnapped by morality.
Although children are innocent, Yao Xuewei does feel differently about the two.
But the other children in the family were very calm to have more brothers and consciously put him into the protective circle.
Yao Li's figure is similar to that of Zhao Le. Without warning from adults, Zhao Le took the initiative to contribute his clothes.
There are many children in the family now. Zhao Qingshan and Yao Duoduo are the largest and most favored in the family, so their clothes are all new clothes.
Except for them, the younger brothers and sisters below do not have this treatment. Except for the new clothes standard for the Spring Festival, they usually wear them left by their brothers and sisters.
After all, the tickets are limited now, and every family is like this. Zhao Le and others have no problem. And compared with other people's old and young people, he doesn't get along well. There are not many brothers in the family, just one, and he can have 50% new clothes to wear.
The little five of the Qian family next door is even worse. The swaddling diapers in their infancy are old, and the clothes they wear when they grow up are also old. They are so big that they haven't worn new clothes. They are all left by their brothers, but he has five brothers...
Sometimes it's not good to have too many brothers and sisters at home.
As the youngest child in the family, Yao Li can be said to be very neglected. After squatting at home for almost half a month, Yao Duoduo gently reminded Yao Xuewei, "Mom, should we send our brother to school?"
"Although it's only temporarily raised in our house, you can't let it go..."
Usually, when Yao Xuewei comes home from work, she doesn't even look at Yao Li. Yao Duoduo is really afraid that Yao Xuewei will forget him. The other brothers and sisters in the family are not easy to ask. As Yao Xuewei's daughter, she is the most favored one in the family. If she wants to ask, she naturally says what she will say what she wants.
"What are you doing so much? Review yours well. I'm going to high school in the second half of the year. You don't have to worry about Yao Li. I'm not that cruel.
Seeing that Yao Duoduo was really worried, Yao Xuewei explained, "It's next semester now. Send him to the first grade. I can't keep up with the progress. In case, like Zhao Le and others, they are afraid of learning. What if they can't learn well even if they repeat the grade?"
It's sad enough to have two scums in the family. If there is another one, Yao Xuewei only feels that her hair should be lost.
Anyway, she doesn't have much patience to tutor her children now. If there are too many children in the family, it is really not rare.
"Oh, oh, I thought... Hey hey, Mom, just remember it." Yao Duoduo smiled awkwardly.
Although Yao Xuewei didn't say it in detail, Yao Duoduo could also come out. Yao Xuewei's relationship with her mother's family was not very harmonious. She thought Yao Xuewei was angry with Yao Liqian.
Yao Xuewei rolled her eyes and said, "I don't care about a little kid yet."
Knowing what happened at home, Yao Xuewei knew it. Yao Duoduo said easily, "That's just right. Yao Li is at home and can help us catch sparrows and mice." Now the class has to hand in tasks every day. We can't catch so much after school.
Now the four harms elimination activities are vigorous. Yao Xuewei mixed it twice in his factory, and then he is rowing water, but the school and the countryside have not relaxed at all, especially in primary schools, where every student has a task.
What is asked for is not the child at all. What is the child's parents have been caught at home and on the street. Now everyone is running to the suburbs...
Fortunately, the teachers in the family home are not so strict. There are not many tasks set, and the children in the family can complete them themselves, so as not to mobilize the whole family.
"Yao Li is good at catching sparrows and mice, but if you are brothers and sisters, don't call others for nothing."
Yao Li had a hundred meals for two months before, but this year, whoever has leftovers can ask for a bite or two. For the rest of the time, he can only eat some vegetables in the field, or follow others to catch sparrows... This technology was practiced at that time.
"Yes. Didn't you see that he has been fattened by us recently? Yao Duoduo usually feeds Yao Li a lot of good things.
Yao Duoduo knows some of the feuds of the Yao family, but not much. But Yao Liquan knows that he listens to his grandparents' curses at home, so even if Yao Xuewei is okay to him, he is very restrained.
Yao Xuewei was at home in the morning and evening. He didn't dare to speak loudly and dare not move more at the dinner table. Everyone was not at home at noon. He hot leftovers alone and didn't dare to eat more for fear of being annoying.
After all, it is not easy for Yao Xuewei to leave her previous grudges and take him in. He is still very content.
Yao Duoduo saw Yao Li's performance, but he did not force him to change. He just silently stuffed him with a lot of good things and fattened him a little.
Because of the good relationship, Yao Li is also willing to run errands for his brothers and sisters, and even is even happy to lead the job by himself.
Seeing everyone's activities to eliminate the four evils are lively, Yao Xuewei is actually holding a breath in her heart.
Anyone who has studied biology knows the food chain. Sparrows eat insects. Sparrows have been killed this year, and there may be an insect disaster in the field next year.
At the beginning, Yao Xuewei wrote an article to the local newspaper of Huishui, telling you the pros and cons, telling everyone that rats and mosquitoes can be caught more, but sparrows can't. I hope everyone's hot minds can calm down.
Because the relationship was in place, her 'untimely' article was also published, but the splash did not provoke at all, so the familiar people in the factory learned about her.
Later, she wanted to continue to work hard and continue to contribute. The newspaper did not publish it. The friend of the newspaper advised her not to always talk against everyone.
Because at the beginning of this movement, it was a little political, and the cause was still the germ warfare in the United States. At that time, everyone's slogan shouted: " Pay attention to hygiene, reduce diseases, improve health, and smash the enemy's germ war."
The starting point is obviously good, but the sparrow suffered.
During the day, someone will shoot with a gun and a net. At night, someone will hit a flashlight and a gong to startle the sparrow out of the nest. The sparrow in the night can't find a direction. In the end, they will fall to the ground and become everyone's booty.
Everyone has a high will to fight. Before they see the bad consequences of killing sparrows, they can't listen to the advice at all.
After several unsuccessful attempts, Yao Xuewei also began to lie down.
However, the people in the factory, under her influence, are not so radical that they will not carry the bodies of hundreds of rat sparrows in exchange for the honor of "advanced hygiene benchmark".
Others in the family are also restrained and can only wipe the line to complete the tasks specified above.
But it's just a drop in the bucket.
