They in the 70s

"Plant one grain in spring, harvest ten thousand grains in autumn!"

"Haw the ground one more time, and harvest one more warehouse of rice!"

A new day begins with listening to Wu Changde's passionate speech at the opening ceremony of spring plowing in the threshing field of Shimen Village.

The season of recovery of all things, the busy spring has officially begun.

After several months of slack in the countryside, the group of educated youths sent to the countryside are finally starting to get in touch with their jobs as new farmers.

After Shimen Village Primary School was completed, the educated youths decided after discussions that everyone would take turns in charge of teaching. Only one person would be left to teach at the school every day, and all the rest would join the spring plowing team and work in the fields.

Among them, Lu Zhansheng felt that he was not qualified to be a teacher, so he voluntarily quit the teaching team and only concentrated on being a farmer. Zheng Yan and Song Jian also did the same.

Wu Changde spoke with enthusiasm, and after he finished speaking, he yelled "Go to work", and the villagers below picked up their hoes one after another.

The educated youth followed suit, seeing that everyone followed Wu Changde to the outside of the village, and followed with the new hoe they had just received.

Due to the local natural environment, there are dirt hills everywhere. When the ancestors reclaimed wasteland in the early years, they turned into farmland when they encountered flat land, so the distribution of farmland in this area is very scattered, with one piece here and one there.

Like the landform here, it is also fragmented.

Most of the fields in Shimen Village are on the west side of the village entrance, and some of them are green, which is the wheat planted in the winter of the previous year.

Some of them are vacant and will be used for planting corn, peanuts and other crops after spring.

There are two harvests every year, the wheat harvest in late spring and early summer, and the autumn harvest in September and October.

Lu Zhansheng didn't know much about the planting of crops, but he felt a little curious along the way.

They always say that there is not enough food in the village because of the lack of land, so why not reclaim some new farmland? Since this area belongs to Shimen Village, according to the current policy, it is reasonable to change the vacant land in the village to farmland legal.

Lu Zhansheng was too lazy to talk to Wu Changde, so he didn't ask at that time.

All farm work in the village is basically the same every year, arranged by Wu Changde, and everyone works according to the assignment.

The first day of work is plowing.

Those who have cattle in the family will donate the cattle, women are responsible for leading them, and men are responsible for holding the plow, so that the field can be plowed faster and easier.

Those who don't have cattle can only turn the ground manually with a pickaxe, which takes a lot of effort.

Wu Changde knew that the educated youths had never been exposed to these things before, and they didn't know how to work. He also felt that they were too delicate to do much work, so he specially allocated a small piece of land to them.

At the beginning, Lu Zhansheng thought that Wu Changde was discriminating against them, and he thought to himself, why not just turn over the ground a few times with the pickaxe, what's the problem, because of this, he almost got into trouble with Wu Changde again.

But it didn't take long to plow the ground. When he started to have back pain, leg cramps, and blisters on his hands, he knew it was over. This plowing was really a damn hard job.

"Hold."

Zheng Yan found that he also had blood blisters on his hands. He grinned in pain, and wanted to throw away the hoe at that time.

Song Jian did the same, leaning on a hoe with one hand, hammering his sore waist with the other, and couldn't help cursing. "Is this fucking work for people? I have no doubt that if this continues, it will be done for me in one day!"

Zhao Jun sat on the ground, looking at the villagers plowing in other fields: "I'm so envious that they have cattle."

Li Dabao didn't say anything, just like a few girls, looking at the blisters on his hands, pouted his mouth and his eyes were red.

He Zhi was not there, and he happened to be in charge of class that day.

When Wu Changde came over, smoking a pipe and pot, he squinted at Lu Zhansheng directly. Although he didn't say anything, the meaning he expressed was very clear: Do you have to swear, you son of a bitch?

Lu Zhansheng: ...

"Hey, just talk if you can't do it."

Wu Changde squinted his eyes and looked at Lu Zhansheng specifically: "You educated youths are weak, and if you really can't do the work, you can ask the village for help. Just find someone to replace you. Don't be brave, take your time."

Fuck!

It's good that Wu Changde didn't say anything, but when he opened his mouth, it was still directed at himself, and Lu Zhansheng immediately became angry, thinking that these words were obviously shameful and provocative to him.

That won't work, I can't stand it.

Lu Zhansheng's fighting spirit was ignited almost immediately.

This is how he is. He never allows himself to fail when it comes to fighting with others. If others come to provoke him, he will never allow himself to endure it.

Lu Zhansheng thought that it was just two blood blisters, what's the big deal, I have even suffered a knife, so I am afraid of this?

Lu Zhansheng looked around and found two useless plows on the ground. He rolled his eyes at Wu Changde with disdain, and then raised his eyebrows at Zheng Yan: "Zheng Yan, what should you do?" Have you ever had a cow?"

Zheng Yan: ...

It can be said that Zheng Yan knew Lu Zhansheng very well. He knew what this kid was going to do when he saw the smirk on Lu Zhansheng's face. Now he had no intention of confronting Wu Changde, and he was too lazy to mess around with Lu Zhansheng.

But now that they have joined the farming team, they will have to participate in the farming work in the future. It is impossible to count on the help of the villagers all the time, and they have to adapt.

It is their job to dig the land right now, and those girls are so tired that they are about to cry, it is understandable to take a break, but it is inappropriate if the elders of them also admit that they are cowardly.

So, Zheng Yan thought about gritting his teeth, and hurriedly pulled it down in one go.

"Never." Zheng Yan said with a smile.

"Then I sincerely invite you."

Lu Zhansheng smiled and carried the two plows on the ground, and continued to say to Zheng Yan: "Come with me, and experience the fun of being a cow?"

"Pull it down!"

Zheng Yan said directly: "Lu Zhansheng, with your temper, you can't be a cow, you have to be a donkey, haha..."

Hearing this, Song Jian and the others also laughed.

Lu Zhansheng didn't care, and rushed to Zheng Yanle. "Then if we compete, you will definitely lose, because the cow runs slowly."

"That's not good."

Zheng Yan walked over, took a plow from his hand, and raised his eyebrows at him again: "Compare?"

"Got it."

As soon as Lu Zhansheng spoke, he put the rope on the plow around himself, and then called out to Song Jian and Zhao Jun respectively: "Come on, support us."

After a few minutes.

A "cow" and a "donkey", amidst the cheers of Li Dabao and several girls, they started their plowing competition.

When the villagers in other fields heard the commotion, they stopped and looked this way, and they all stopped and laughed out loud.

The hard work time suddenly became more interesting.

The land was not very big at first, and the two young men took advantage of the hard work and plowed the whole land in one go.

At the end, the two of them reached the ground almost at the same time, dropped the upper rope of the plow at the same time, collapsed on the ground at the same time, and fell on their backs at the same time.

Under the scorching sun, they were almost drenched in sweat.

very tired.

But also very cool.

Although the young guy is sometimes impulsive and reckless, sometimes he is lawless, but he is energetic and hard-working, which is very gratifying.

Wu Changde looked at the young man who was lying on the ground tired and half dead, but still smiling brightly. Even for a few minutes, he felt that the children Lu Zhansheng had become cute again.

However, after only a few minutes, when Lu Zhansheng got up from the ground, raised his chin at him, rolled his eyes, patted his buttocks and turned to leave, he still felt that it was not good, this little boy was almost too late, and he still owed it to him. beat.

The educated youths were the first to complete the task, and they were also the first batch to come back from the field.

It was just before noon, and the children were out of school.

Lu Zhansheng went directly to the school to find He Zhi, Zheng Yan and Song Jian were also there, and the others went back to the educated youth spot to rest.

Seeing that several people were covered in dirt, He Zhixian distributed a broom to each of them, asked them to clean up their bodies, and then poured water for each of them.

"Are you tired from work?"

When He Zhi asked this question, Lu Zhansheng immediately stretched out his hand.

He has made several bubbles, he has to make He Zhi feel sorry for him.

He Zhi frowned, but didn't come over to hug him.

Lu Zhansheng glanced at Zheng Yan and Song Jian, and felt that they were a bit redundant at the moment, and was trying to find some reason to drive them away, when Wu Qingqing came.

Wu Qingqing came to deliver the ointment, she was not very embarrassed to talk to the other three people, so she said to He Zhi: "This is badger ointment, it is very effective in treating blisters."

Before He Zhi could speak, Lu Zhansheng hummed: "Your father would be so kind?"

Wu Qingqing pouted, ignored him, just put the ointment on the table, and then left.

And she was about to leave, and one of the two boys immediately felt a little restless.

"Why are you leaving in such a hurry?"

Zheng Yan hurriedly stopped in front, and said with a smile: "I just came back from the field, I'm really tired, let's take a rest first."

"Yes." Song Jian then pulled a stool for him. "Take a break and go home."

Wu Qingqing felt a little embarrassed.

At this time, He Zhi also said: "Xiao Wu, come have lunch with us at noon."

Wu Qingqing just sat down.

In this way, Zheng Yan and Song Jian felt at ease, but Lu Zhansheng was not too happy. He pulled his face to look at He Zhi, and his questioning eyes were very obvious: What do you mean?

He Zhi didn't say anything, went to get some cotton swabs, then grabbed his hand and rubbed the medicine on him.

When Zheng Yan and Song Jian saw He Zhi rubbing medicine on Lu Zhansheng, they seemed to have received some inspiration.

Zheng Yan reacted quickly, and immediately stretched out his hand, saying to Wu Qingqing: "Comrade Wu, my hand is also broken, that...can you wipe the medicine for me?"

Wu Qingqing looked up at him, then quickly lowered her eyes, ignoring him.

Zheng Yan felt a little embarrassed.

Song Jian felt that if he felt the same way, he should get the same response, but the opportunity was rare. After hesitating for a while, he still tried it, and said to Wu Qingqing: "The main reason is that it hurts too much, and I can't get it off by applying the medicine myself." It's not easy to wipe your hands, and we can't all count on He Zhi alone, so we can only trouble Comrade Xiao Wu."

Unexpectedly, after Song Jian finished speaking, Wu Qingqing's eyes drooped for a while, and she went to get a cotton swab.

Zheng Yan was even more embarrassed at that time.

And, lost.

Lu Zhansheng was originally focused on fighting against He Zhi, and didn't pay attention to those few people, but he was reminded by He Zhi's eyes, and he looked at Song Jian, who was triumphant at the moment, and then at Zheng Yan, who was frowning and grimacing. Next, I understand something.

Lu Zhansheng didn't say anything, but kicked Zheng Yan. When Zheng Yan looked at him, he raised his eyebrows and smirked at Zheng Yan: Tsk, how pitiful.

Fuck!

Zheng Yanzheng was depressed, and couldn't stand Lu Zhansheng's lack of energy, so he stood up and pulled Lu Zhansheng away, sat next to He Zhi himself, then handed his hand to He Zhi, and looked up at Lu Zhansheng: Poor shit, what's the difference between us?

Gee.

Lu Zhansheng felt that he was even more pitiful, after all, there was a big difference.

"It's a moment to be proud of the spring breeze, and it's also a moment to be depressed and sad. The rest of your life is long, so how do you know the way forward?"

Before seeing the person, hear the voice first.

Everyone followed the sound and saw Xia Shucheng walking in with her hands behind her back and a smile.
