After the Earthquake of Rebirth

Large flakes of snow all over the sky covered the farm with a thin layer of white. As soon as the first snow fell, Hu Zi and Du Cheng walked down the hillside, thinking about how to get rid of the few roads that the farm often walks after the heavy snow fell. The road is cleared.

The easiest way is to sprinkle salt or cinders, but how much cinders are left after burning can be used on the side of the hillside.As for spreading salt, although City D is close to the sea, it has never dried sea water to obtain salt. Nowadays, what everyone eats is table salt transported from other places. If a large amount of it is sprinkled on the ground to melt snow, even if they don’t care about the consumption of the salt His credit points are not willing to be ruined like this.

After much deliberation, I couldn't think of any other way except manual snow removal.The two of them plan to go to the beach early next summer. The high temperature and scorching sun make it impossible for them to dry out the sea salt, and they don't point to the salt for consumption, so there is no need to purify and remove impurities before drying it out. Save for winter snow removal.

Ning Qiyan and Ning Xiaowen were listening, and they didn't have any objections. They interrupted occasionally, and when they got to the beach, they might be able to get some seafood to eat.

When they reached the pigsty, Du Cheng and Hu Zi took off their coats as soon as they entered, and let Ning Qiyan and Ning Xiaowen hold them. Then they rolled up their sleeves, washed their hands and helped.

Looking after the pigsty and sheep pen is a pair of father and son from the countryside. The father is in his fifties and the son is just in his twenties. They raise pigs and sheep every year in their hometown. The number is not large, but every year, they also grow. I have accumulated a lot of experience.

But when it comes to delivering babies, only the father can do it, and the son is too anxious to do it beside him.At this moment, seeing that his father was overwhelmed by himself, he didn't expect that when the employer came, he would go up to help directly.The son's ears were red with shame.

Obviously he was paid to hire him to work, but he was useless at critical moments, and the master had to do it himself.

Ning Xiaowen watched from the side and reached out to pat the young man on the back.

"It's okay, just take a look."

Ning Qiyan also smiled at the young man comfortingly.The gentle and friendly smile made the young man suppress the shame in his heart, nodded seriously, and then carefully watched the actions of his father and Du Cheng, and remembered them in his heart.

Ning Qiyan and Ning Xiaowen looked at each other and smiled.When hiring people, they knew that the father and son had real experience only the father, the son had been studying all the time, if the earthquake hadn't happened, the child would have graduated from college, how could he be able to raise pigs and sheep? .However, this child has a stable and honest personality, not as frivolous as ordinary young people, and he is also serious about his work. With his father teaching him hand in hand, it is estimated that within a year or two, he will be able to take care of the pigpen or sheeppen by himself.

Having just delivered two sows, Bai Chengyi and the others also came to join in the fun when they heard Xin'er.When sows gather so many people when they are giving birth, the sows will be nervous and affect the production. Ning Xiaowen directly drives people to the nearby sheepfold and asks them to help keep an eye on the ewes.All the people from the province gathered here, and if the ewes over there started, no one would guard them.

The sheep pens and pig pens are very spacious, and the walls are also well insulated. After winter, coal is burned every day for heating, and the indoor temperature is higher than that of the semi-outdoor shacks.

The pigs and sheep became restless in the morning, and after all the safe production, it was already midnight.

Lambs can be raised directly in the sheep pen, but the piglets need a warmer temperature. Originally, the storage room next to the room where Ning Xiaowen and Hu Zi lived was turned on a kang to feed the newborn chickens, ducks and piglets. They guaranteed the temperature, but the father and son who had been taking care of the pigs and sheep shook their heads repeatedly.

It is their job to take care of livestock, so it doesn't make sense for the employer to take care of the cubs after giving birth.The father and son directly wrapped the piglet in a quilt and carried it back to the house where they lived.Not only do they take the piglets down to drink milk every day, but also let the son learn to take care of the piglets.

Although the working hours are not long, the father can still taste the character of the employer.

Although rebuilding has begun, it is still unknown when the school will be able to resume classes normally. Instead of wasting time waiting for the start of school, it is better to work on the farm in a down-to-earth manner.The employer has a good personality and a kind heart. As long as you work hard, in addition to the normal salary, you will also get a lot of benefits from time to time.As a father, I have experienced many people and things. I also went out to work when I was young. I know that it is very rare to meet such an employer. Even if my son’s school does not resume in the future, it is quite good to stay and work on the farm.

Ning Qiyan and the others saw that the father and son were so determined, so they agreed after thinking about it.It is true that the place where the father and son live is not as far from the pigsty as Ning Qiyan's house. The newborn piglets not only need a warm environment, but also often have to hug the sow to drink milk. It was too troublesome to walk over from Qiyan's yard.

The sows and ewes gave birth safely, Ning Qiyan let go of the last worry, and the whole farm is developing steadily.

Half of the stable but busy winter is over, and it is the annual Spring Festival.

On New Year's Eve, Du Cheng and Hu Zi sent some of the pork ribs left over from the previous slaughter to the staff dormitory in the middle of the hillside.Each of the six hired families gave five catties of pork, two catties of pork ribs, and the two children got two big red... bags.

The banknotes have not been used yet, and the credit points are virtual, so there is no red envelope, so I just replaced it with two red cloth bags.Each bag contains a bottle of ketchup that kids love, some dried fruit, and a big bag of assorted candies.

The six families are grateful for more than what they can do.Naturally they knew about the slaughter of pigs by their employers, but they never expected that even pork could be distributed as welfare.This is pork. If you take it outside, it will be sold at sky-high prices!

As for the red...bags for the children, the two employee families with children repeatedly refused. Bringing the children to work is considered a drag. Usually, the employers don’t want money for the children’s food, and they are busy some time ago. Clearing the snow and clearing the road, the two children were even taken home by the two girls from the employer's friend's house to take care of them. How could they have the nerve to accept the two bags.

Beard waved his hand, and put the bag directly into the child's arms, "This is for the child, not for you, come on, kids, take it by yourself."

Besides, even Wang Yang and his family of six were "young" and had the cheek to beg for red envelopes. It doesn't make sense that there are no real children.

When the two finished delivering the benefits and returned home, Bai Chengyi and Wang Yang's family had already come to their house.

Beard twitched the corner of his mouth.

He knows it!

Previously, Ning Xiaowen and Ning Qiyan were busy catching up with the last batch of orders a year ago, so they had no time to spare.He also told him that he must remember to call the two families to celebrate the New Year together on New Year's Eve.

But Huzi didn't bark at all, he knew that the two families would definitely come over shamelessly if they were called or not!

It has been almost three years since the earthquake. For three consecutive years, the New Year's Eve dinners have been spent by the three families together.As each year goes by, the dishes on the New Year's Eve dinner table become more and more abundant.Although there are no delicacies from mountains and seas, with Ning Qiyan's cooking skills, there is also a mixture of northern and southern cuisines. Whether it is Wang Yang and the others from the south, or Bai Chengyi and others who were born and raised in the north, they can all feel the taste of their hometown.

The cold dishes are set out first, and the hot dishes are also served one by one.Looking at the time, Dong Wen'an, who had to go to work on the last day before the annual leave, should also be back.

Just as he was thinking, the door suddenly opened, and Dong Wen'an walked in in a cold suit.

"You are really dedicated. What time is it? If you don't come back, we'll eat first!" Huzi put down his drink, and while talking, got up to take Dong Wen'an's coat.

Dong Wen'an didn't seem to notice Hu Zi's movements, and handed the coat to Yang Yu who happened to be sitting by the door.

Yang Yu didn't feel anything, took the coat, got up and put it in the room.

Huzi paused halfway up, Dong Wen'an's movements were natural, and there was nothing wrong with saying it, but he always felt that there was some meaning in it.Looking at the distorted expressions of Wang Yang and the others beside him, Hu Zi sat down again slowly.

It seems that something is really wrong!

When Yang Yu came back and sat down, Dong Wen'an was holding a bowl of hot soup to keep him warm.

Putting down the bowl, Dong Wen'an filled the wine glass in front of him. Others were a little surprised when they saw his actions.

Dong Wen'an's drinking capacity is indeed good, but it is well known that he hates drinking, so it is of course surprising that he is so proactive now.

Regardless of other people's surprise, Dong Wen'an poured the wine on his own and raised the glass.

"I came back so late, and I was delayed by the good news. Since it's good news, how can there be no wine to add to the fun?!" Dong Wen'an drank a full glass of white wine in one gulp.

Everyone was even more surprised now, and Bai Chengyi said anxiously: "Don't drink it yet! What good news are you talking about!"

How good news is it that Dong Wen'an can avoid drinking like a snake and scorpion? !

Qu Dong next to Dong Wen'an directly helped him refill another glass, saving him from wasting time pouring the wine himself.

Dong Wen'an didn't hold back, and picked up the wine glass again.

"First, in the spring of next year, all the troops stationed in City D and some of the citizens will start emergency repairs of the surrounding roads. The central government has issued a request that the first batch of key reconstruction cities should repair all the highways connecting to the outside world within one year. Our city D is the first batch of key reconstruction cities, and it ranks third.

Second, the central government officially issued a document to determine that the credit points distributed by each city will be the new currency in circulation in the country, which will be used throughout the country. This document will be officially implemented on October [-] next year.At the same time, pre-disaster banknotes can be exchanged for credit points before October [-] next year, at a ratio of [-] yuan to [-] point, and each person can exchange up to [-] cash.And even if you don't have cash, you can exchange it with your proof of deposit.

Thirdly, on the eighth day of the new year, the government will officially start to work. On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the list of survivors in various provinces and cities across the country will be announced, and citizens can check it for free.

Fourth, on May [-] next year, the government will form a fleet to go fishing.Fishing boats are also rented out, and those with sea experience can rent fishing boats with credit points and go to sea in private groups.

There are still three pieces of good news that are directly related to those of us here.First, all universities in city D will take the lead in resuming the courses of two universities in September next year, and Wang Yang's medical university is one of them.

Second, the new city business district will be put into construction in the first half of next year, and it is expected to be completed before the end of the year. Canding Store can take the lead in choosing a store location with its business license. The credit points you have accumulated.

And the last piece of good news, I would like to congratulate the four of you Qiyan.Although I haven't found out about the project yet, I can see the word 'Ningjia Farm' very clearly, and it has been confirmed to be on the list of the first batch of key support in City D! "

Dong Wen'an finished speaking in one breath, regardless of the stunned expressions of the others, he drank the white wine in the glass again.

The pungent taste passed through his throat, and Dong Wen'an felt a little hot in his eyes.

The news itself may not be very important, but in series, whether it is the central government or D city, the announcement one by one means that the state machinery is officially fully activated, and the entire country will enter a period of rapid recovery and reconstruction.It also means... the disaster is finally over!

Putting down his wine glass and rubbing his sour nose, Dong Wen'an laughed heartily.He thinks he is very strong and has experienced many things, but today he lost his composure twice.Once, during the year-end meeting this afternoon, I was so shocked by the news that I even shed tears unconsciously.I thought that after all this precipitation, he had already calmed down enough, but I didn't expect that it was just a retelling, which made his eyes red again.

Dong Wen'an leaned on the back of the chair, closed his eyes, and did not break the silence in the room.

I don't know how long it took for those present to digest the string of good news brought by Dong Wen'an.

It was indeed good news, but it brought tears to my eyes.

Wang Yuanyuan was the first to break the silence and burst into tears.

Different good news hits different weaknesses of each person, but for Wang Yuanyuan and the others who are forced to stay in a foreign land, whether it is the start of classes or the location of the store, they are not as good as knowing the life and death of their loved ones.No matter what the result is, we can finally know!

Ning Qiyan looked at the tearful people at the table

Whether it's the two girls who fell into their lover's arms and wept bitterly, or the tears left between the fingers of others while covering their eyes.All told everyone's inner excitement.

Ning Qiyan blinked, looking out the window at the snowflakes that fell at an unknown time.

In the heavy snow, he was full of enthusiasm.

very nice……

The country broke through the constraints caused by the global earthquake and finally began to fully recover.

very nice……

Alone in a foreign land, Wang Yang and the others couldn't hide the anxiety and worry in their hearts even if they were laughing and joking. Finally, they were able to know the situation of their family members.

very nice……

His own farm can be supported by the government. Whether it is his own family or Bai Chengyi, who has not yet found the right direction, they can let go of their hands and feet.

Ning Qiyan stretched out his hand, and tightly held the bronze rough and strong hands beside him.Slightly raised his head, with a smile on his face, he met his lover's eyes that were also slightly red but extremely firm.

"It's good that you're still alive..."
