After the winter vacation on the school side, the brigade has also started to divide the autumn harvest grain. The farm work in the fields has been busy these two days, and the rest is to chop firewood in the mountains.

As long as the brigade does not have classes, most of the villagers will go to the mountains to cut firewood, and the firewood will be piled up at home, so that there will be no firewood when the farming is busy.

The firewood in Xu Qian's family is used up quickly, and she is unwilling to chop firewood, so most of the firewood in her family is sent by Yang Tiezhu and his wife after cutting it.

Before Yang Tiezhu treated his daughter-in-law, the medical expenses he borrowed have not yet been paid off.Xu Qian didn't ask them to pay it back, but asked them to chop firewood for her family to pay off the debt.

What her family lacked was labor, but what Yang Tiezhu and his wife needed was money. Xu Qian knew that they didn't want to live in the same yard with Mrs. Yang and the others for a long time.

They want to move out and build a new house, but the family really has no money, and there are still a lot of debts outside.

But seeing their son chasing the chickens in the yard, they were satisfied in their hearts. Hard times are only for a while, and they will never suffer for a lifetime.

As long as the husband and wife work hard enough, life will definitely get better day by day. Xu Qian just took a fancy to the couple, which is why they asked them to cut firewood to pay off the debt.

What Yang Tiezhu and his wife are afraid of is not hard work, but no place to make money. However, in this era, apart from being a worker, there is really no place to make money.

The couple worked in the fields all year round. After the autumn harvest, the food was sold out, and the team's money was only more than 40 yuan. How could they have money to pay back the debt?

Because they knew it was sister-in-law's kindness, the couple often sent some fish and shrimp over. The fish and shrimp were all caught by Yang Tiezhu himself in the river or in the ditch.

Although it's not worth much, it's also their kindness. There are so many men in the old Zhou's family, so how can they really ask them to send firewood? It's just a disguised form of help.

If Xu Qian directly said that the money would not be returned, Yang Tiezhu and his wife would not agree.

They are not so thick-skinned, and they should already be extremely grateful for others to accompany them to the capital.

They also used so much money from other people, it's not a big deal, and the money from other people didn't come from the wind.

Of course, Xu Qian would not be so stupid to say such things, it is only natural to pay back the debt.

She just doesn't want to chop firewood, she just spends money to find someone to do it for her, even if there is no Yang Tiezhu and his wife, there are others.

Just buying firewood from Yang Tiezhu's family, the villagers will not make irresponsible remarks. After all, this is the money owed. If you have no money to pay back, you should pay the debt with firewood.

But if you use money to find other villagers to chop firewood, it becomes a business and takes the road of capitalism.

Xu Qian didn't dare to make such a mistake. In this era, Xu Qian was very clear about what should be done and what was forbidden, and she would never cross the line.

Compared with other families, her family has better food and better clothes, but her family is also considered a worker's family.

The workers' families in the county had a similar life to hers. Xu Qian just spent a lot of money, and there was nothing unclear about it.

Although Xu Qian's family often eats meat, she takes a large part of the meat from her own space.

I didn't go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy it, and outsiders didn't even know that her family was eating meat again.

I don't even know how often her family eats meat.

After all, on the surface, Xu Qian only went to the county three times a month and bought meat three times to eat.

The frequency is a bit more than them, but not particularly frequent.The Zhou family knew a little bit, and knew that Xu Qian's family must eat more than a little meat, but they couldn't say it!

One is that Xu Qian is also from the old Zhou family, and the other is that when Xu Qian eats meat, she also leaves some soup for them to drink. After drinking this soup, she will naturally stop talking nonsense.

This year, there is less rain, and the grain production has decreased. The output is not as high as before, but the same amount of work points is not as much grain as before.

After Xu Qian distributed the rations, she bought [-] catties of rice and [-] catties of corn on the brigade.

Instead of buying as much rice as before, I bought more corn, plus the wheat bought during the summer harvest, it must be enough to eat for a year.

She bought a lot of grain last year, and there were still two bags left in the cabinet, and they were all rice.

Although Xu Qian's family often eats refined grains and rice noodles.But it's not about not eating corn, sweet potatoes and other coarse grains.

She still often cooks corn paste, steamed corn buns, steamed buns and other foods, and often eats sweet potato flour made from sweet potatoes, so the consumption of fine grains is not fast.

Think about the modern people of later generations, even if they eat refined grains every day, how much rice grains can they eat in a year?

There is plenty of oil and water in the stomach, so the appetite is small, and most of the time, he only eats vegetables and does not touch rice at all.

Xu Qian's family is also like this now. Although she doesn't cook meat every day, she does cook vegetables.

He is not stingy with oil and salt, so the stomachs of the children are never short of oil and water.

This can be seen from the fatter and fatter faces and rounder bodies of these boys.

When little Du Qian first came to her house two years ago, his whole body was like that bone stick.

But looking at it now, not only has he gained weight several times, but he has also grown a full ten centimeters.

In addition, he was raised by Xu Qian to be full of self-confidence, and his mental state was completely different from before.

Those acquaintances who went out like this may not necessarily know each other anymore, the change is really too great.

On the second day after the food was pushed back, Xu Qian went to the town by bicycle, wrote a letter to her cheap dad, and sent two sweaters, one from him and one from her brother.

Xu Shen has been very kind to her since she was a child, and she is more like her father than Xu Minguo. It is really hard work for him to raise her, but his mouth is a bit unforgiving.

Every time I have to bicker with her, she jumps her feet in anger, and she doesn't know what's going on with him now.

He is quite old and still unmarried, which made Xu Qian a little anxious.

What happened to his girlfriend?Can't you get a certificate first when you are in college, and get married with a banquet?

Calculating the time, that woman should be a sophomore this year, so her elder brother will have to wait two years.

Ugh!

If her brother was left behind in later generations, she would not be worried at all. Men of his age are still struggling with their careers, and they are not in a hurry to get married.

But today's age is different!Some of Xu Qian's views are also involuntarily influenced by the environment.

Her father, Xu Minguo, was really worried about Xu Shen's not getting married. He also had a bad impression of Xu Shen's girlfriend, thinking that she was just delaying his son.

After going to the capital, will she really come back in the future?After seeing the prosperity of the big city, is she still willing to go back to their place and marry into their place?

The place where Xu Qian's natal family is located is a provincial capital and a provincial capital, which is not considered a small place.

But compared with the capital, it is still incomparable.Smart people know how to choose.

It's just that stupid son of his family who is still waiting foolishly. He doesn't know that others use him as a spare tire!

"Hey, big brother is getting married during Chinese New Year?"

Xu Qian received a letter from her elder brother a month later. After reading the contents of the letter, she was shocked.

She said it before!When did her elder brother get married? She didn't expect the change to happen so quickly.
