Back To Qiqi Farming To Raise Children

Xu Shiyan took his daughter-in-law to Qianchuan to watch the parade, and happened to miss an important event.

On October 21st, the superiors announced a policy that the college entrance examination will be resumed this year, and all candidates who meet the requirements can take the exam.

Once the news was announced, it immediately attracted the attention of countless people.

Especially the educated youths who went to the countryside, many of them were thinking about how to apply for the exam.

On the Xu family's side, both Xue Xiulin and Wei Mingrong were sent-down educated youths.

However, both of them graduated from junior high school, and they didn't study well at the beginning, and now they are both married and have children. Even after knowing the news, they didn't think about signing up.

Xu Shixiang, on the other hand, immediately expressed his desire to sign up after hearing the news.

Xu Shixiang has graduated from high school for several years, and has been unwilling to work in the agricultural team to earn work points. He finally had this opportunity, so he naturally couldn't miss it.

If he put aside his previous temper, Xu Chenghou would probably curse again when he heard that the fifth child was going to take the college entrance examination.

This year's college entrance examination is at the beginning of December, and the time is very tight. If Xu Shixiang wants to take the exam, he must start reviewing immediately.

We must know that Xu Shixiang is still very popular in the team, and he earns a lot of work points.

Xu Chenghou felt very distressed when he thought that his son would not be able to earn work points while preparing for the exam.

But since the third son was fighting to separate the family, and the young couple went out to live alone, life got better and better. Xu Chenghou reflected on himself when he had nothing to do.

The more I think about it, the more I feel that he may be old, and his thoughts and vision cannot keep up.

So this time when the fifth child said he was going to take the college entrance examination, Xu Chenghou just sat there smoking for a long time without saying a word.

Xu Chenghou didn't speak, and the rest of the family couldn't speak rashly, but Xue Xiulin and Wei Mingrong's sister-in-law didn't like it very much.

A dozen or so members of the Xu family live together, and there are only a few men who can earn work points. If Xu Shixiang signs up for the college entrance examination, he will have one less labor.

The sister-in-law wanted to talk, but didn't dare, so they reached out and poked their respective men.

Both Xu Shixian and Xu Shi'an knew what their daughter-in-law wanted to do, but they couldn't say it directly, so they could only wink at their respective wives.

Okay, you all don't have to frown and fix those things, I'm not so old that I can't see clearly.

Zhou Guilan has been in charge of the family for so many years, still can't guess what her son and daughter-in-law are thinking? Speak immediately.

The fifth child signed up for the college entrance examination, I agree, this is an opportunity, a rare good opportunity.

Although Zhou Guilan is illiterate, she is very knowledgeable, much better than the average rural old lady.

If you can really pass the exam and go to university, you will be a person who eats public food in the future, and will no longer be a mud leg.

Being able to leave the countryside, without having to work in the fields all day long, and sitting in an office to receive wages, is a good thing that others can only dream of.

Fifth, you go to the commune tomorrow morning to ask for the registration form, and then tell your Uncle Zhao, and then go home and read the book to review.

Work hard, if you can be admitted to university, our old Xu family can be regarded as a glorious ancestor.

The real master of the Xu family is Zhou Guilan, and the old lady said that this matter is considered a certainty.

You guys don't have to feel that you are at a disadvantage.

As I said before, when the fourth child gets married, we will live separately in the spring of next year.

Before the daughters-in-law could make a fuss, Zhou Guilan directly spoke clearly, and now the two daughters-in-law lost their temper.

Xu Shiyan on the mountain didn't know what happened at home. Even if he knew about the resumption of the college entrance examination, he didn't have the heart to take the exam.

Right now he is on the mountain, guarding the stove pit to burn walnut pine cones for Su Anying.

In the afternoon, when Xu Shiyan was digging traps and placing guns outside the field, he picked up some walnuts and shot a few pine cones.

This is the only good thing about the mountain. It is far away from the village, there are few people coming, and there are many kinds of mountain goods.

Su Anying is pregnant, and it is said that pregnant women eating more nuts is good for their children.

So when cooking just now, Xu Shiyan buried two pine cones in the stove pit, pulled out the pine cones after they were cooked, and the charcoal in the stove pit was still very hot.

So Xu Shiyan grabbed a large number of hickory nuts, dipped the front tip in cold water, and inserted them vertically into the charcoal fire.

After a while, I could hear a snap, and the front tip of the walnut split.

When the pine cone is cooked, put it upright, lift your foot and kick hard, the pine nuts inside will burst out, and use your hands to pick the rest to find it.

One big pine cone can produce almost two taels of pine nuts, and two pine cones are enough for Su Anying to kowtow all night.

Fresh pine nuts are sweet and fragrant when cooked, and they are more delicious than dry fried ones.

Su Anying held a pair of pliers in her hand, pinched them open one by one, and pulled out the pine nuts inside and piled them together.

Taking advantage of Xu Shiyan's inattention, he stuffed it into his mouth.

I don't want to eat, you can just eat. Xu Shiyan was stunned for a moment, then smiled.

Eating nuts is good for your health, especially for children. It is said that eating more nuts will make your children brighter and smarter.

He doesn't have much desire for snacks, he eats when he has it, and forgets if he doesn't.

For him now, nothing is as important as Su Anying and the child in her belly.

There are so many, and you even burned walnuts. This way of eating, I guess I'll be a ball before the baby is born.

Su Anying looked at her slightly protruding belly. It's only been a few months, and she feels like she's gained weight several times.

It's okay, even if it becomes a ball, it's the most beautiful one.

Xu Shiyan smiled, picked out a walnut from the stove, picked up a knife and chopped it along the opening, just splitting the walnut in half.

Get an awl, pick the walnuts yourself, and I'll go out for a walk.

After all the walnuts were split open, Xu Shiyan got up and went out for a walk with a gun on his back.

The site of the big house is not big, and with the newly planted mallet field in autumn, it is only about two thousand feet long.

This year's land and horse roads are wide, so after conversion, it is about fifty or sixty mu of land.

With a gun on his back and a flashlight in one hand, Xu Shiyan strolled around the field, shaking the grass outside with the flashlight from time to time, and then checked whether the sticks clamped around him were damaged.

In the evening when watching ginseng, you need to take a walk. Basically, you have to go around the ginseng field and some main places inside.

Especially those places that are more convenient for people to come in, or where there are tall bushes that can hide people, you have to check carefully.

Avoid someone sneaking into the ginseng field and stealing ginseng in the middle of the night.

Although Xu Shiyan set up various traps around the venue, he didn't dare to be careless, he wandered around wherever he should go.

If he lost the mallet in his hand, it would be a shame.

Xu Shiyan wandered around the venue for half a circle, everything was normal. Xu Shiyan was relieved, and walked back around the other side.

Just as he wandered to the southeast corner of the venue, he suddenly heard a bang, followed by a howling like a pig.

Yes, the gun rang out. Hearing the sound, the wild boar should have been injured.

Xu Shiyan was startled, and immediately ran towards the place where the gun was fired with the gun in his hand.
