They in the 70s

It's a pleasure to eat a big pot of rice.

The whole village was called together to have a hot meal of rabbit meat soup. From the next day, everyone continued to starve.

Not only starving, but also having to work while starving.

After the previously irrigated land is almost dry, it is time to sow the seeds. The educated youths are still in charge of the few lands they have been managing.

When Song Jian and Zheng Yan went to collect the seeds, they looked at the bags of peanuts and corn kernels, their eyes lit up, and they thought of going together tacitly: after taking them back, everyone Everyone must share a small handful first.

When the two of them ran back with their bags on their shoulders, Lu Zhansheng was a little puzzled seeing their excited faces.

However, when Zheng Yan put a bag of peanuts on the ground, opened the bag and raised his eyebrows at him, he was no longer puzzled.

Zheng Yan didn't say anything, but Lu Zhansheng understood his meaning almost immediately.

Peanuts are a good thing.

Lu Zhansheng immediately looked around and found that the other villagers were busy working on their own. He said with a smirk in a low voice, "Isn't it good for us to do this?"

"Of course not."

Song Jian immediately said: "This is a corrupt thought, and the behavior is seriously inappropriate, so, you kid, please don't eat it."

"Yes."

Zheng Yan also said: "Brother Song didn't tell me, I almost forgot, you boy can't do this, after all, if Brother He Zhi knows about this, he will have to deal with you again, hahaha..."

"Isn't he just not here today?"

As soon as Lu Zhansheng spoke, he stretched out his hand with a smile and took out a small handful from his bag, and then said to Zhao Jun and Tong Xiaoxue who were beside him: "Friends, there are good things that should be shared together, but this thing is not suitable for Comrade He Zhi. So you all keep your mouths shut, don't talk nonsense when you go back."

"... "

Both Zhao Jun and Tong Xiaoxue felt that it was not good to do so, but they were too hungry, and after struggling for a moment, they all nodded at Lu Zhansheng, and then went to grab a handful one after another.

however.

Just when they got together sneakily and were about to stuff the peanuts they got into their mouths, they suddenly heard someone yelling at them:

"can not eat!"

The educated youths were guilty of being thieves, and they were all shocked at the time.

Lu Zhansheng and Zheng Yan often do bad things, so be more courageous, follow the voice and find that it is Wu Qingqing, she is running to this side in a hurry, and Wu Changde behind her is holding a cigarette pipe and pot, squinting his eyes watch them.

"Tsk."

Lu Zhansheng cursed directly in a low voice: "You're so fucking cunning and cunning."

Seeing that it was Wu Qingqing, Zheng Yan immediately approached Lu Zhansheng, and then stuffed all the peanuts in his hand into Lu Zhansheng's hand from behind.

Lu Zhansheng: "Fuck?"

"The rivers and lakes are in an emergency, brother."

After Zheng Yansai clapped his hands, he greeted Wu Qingqing with a smile. "Comrade Xiao Wu, don't get me wrong. We are checking whether the seeds are intact. After all, the quality of the seeds is related to the germination rate, which determines the future growth."

"Ah, yes."

Seeing that the reaction was quick, Song immediately took advantage of the situation and spread out the handful of seeds in his hand, looked at them pretendingly, and said, "Well, I have no problem with these things, it's fine."

After speaking, he hurried to put the peanut seeds back into the bag.

When the others saw this, they immediately followed suit and put them back.

Wu Qingqing felt very helpless about their deceitful behavior. The seeds were carefully selected by everyone after last year's harvest, and they were all good seeds.

The atmosphere was awkward for a while.

Only Lu Zhansheng didn't feel embarrassed, and this handful of peanuts had already been in his hands, so he would definitely not put it back, and he would feel very uncomfortable if the duck in his beak flew away.

So, Lu Zhansheng thought for a while, then he clenched his fists and crushed the handful of peanuts in his hand. Then, he took it out as if nothing had happened, and showed it to Wu Qingqing: "Look, my It’s not very good, it’s all cracked, and it’s definitely not possible to sow any more.”

"you!"

Wu Qingqing didn't expect Lu Zhansheng to do this, and she was not only helpless, but also a little angry.

Peanuts are very valuable crops in Shimen Village, because the drought in the Biansui area is particularly severe, and the yield of peanuts is very low, and most of the oil that people in the village eat needs to be squeezed from peanuts. One less seed means less harvest , Destroying a handful of seeds may cause a certain family to be unable to eat oil for several months.

"Comrade Xiao Lu, what you are doing is very wrong. There are so many people in our village who are ignorant and uneducated, but they all know that the seeds sown in spring are not edible, no matter how hungry or greedy they are."

Wu Qingqing burst into tears as soon as she spoke. "Because it's a seed, it's hope."

"... "

At this time, Lu Zhansheng still had little experience and didn't know the famine in front of him. In fact, he hadn't encountered the real predicament and didn't experience it personally. He didn't have any specific concepts about seeds and harvest.

Therefore, he didn't take it seriously, and thought that Wu Qingqing's crying over a small handful of peanuts was a big deal.

But this matter was not known by who made a big mouth, but it was stabbed to He Zhi.

That night, He Zhi organized a meeting for everyone.

Everyone realized their mistakes, and after mutual discussion, they formulated a series of daily codes of conduct for educated youth, and promised to restrain themselves in the future.

Just Lu Zhansheng pulled his face the whole time and remained silent.

After the meeting, He Zhi dragged him outside to the threshing field, looking as if he was going to teach him a lesson.

Lu Zhansheng is a person who likes to be arrogant and forceful when he has a guilty conscience, so he yelled at He Zhi before he could say anything.

"Isn't it just a handful of broken peanuts! As for such a big fanfare! He Zhi, just say that we haven't quarreled recently, and you're in a panic?"

He Zhi frowned upon hearing this.

"The big deal is that when the peanuts are harvested, it's okay if I don't want my share. As for the one or two of you who are so endless, why, you still don't like me!"

He Zhi frowned and sighed again.

"Why don't you speak?"

Lu Zhansheng glanced at him. "Aren't you going to criticize me, come on."

He Zhi looked at him helplessly for a long time, then reached out and touched his head, sighed and said, "When will you change your temper, don't be so impatient."

"... "

Lu Zhansheng pouted.

He Zhi dragged him to a haystack and sat down.

"There is an ancient poem. I remember I taught you to read it when you were young. Plant a grain of millet in spring and harvest ten thousand seeds in autumn."

He Zhi said, "Do you still remember?"

"forget!"

Lu Zhansheng pouted and said, "I only remember 'there is no idle land in the world, and the farmers starve to death'. These people farmed the land every year and starved every year, and they didn't know what to do with it. They were just busy work. "

"But if you don't grow it, you won't even have the chance to starve." He Zhi said.

"Then I won't live."

Lu Zhan said angrily, "Anyway, I don't want to live this kind of life. If it's like this every year, I'd rather not live."

"Don't talk nonsense."

He Zhi sighed again helplessly.

Lu Zhansheng pouted for a moment, and glanced at He Zhi. "Hey, are you mad at me?"

"No." He Zhi said.

"No wonder."

Lu Zhansheng said, "You are obviously not happy."

"Really not." He Zhi said.

"I don't believe it." Lu Zhansheng glanced at him again, humming: "Then you kiss me?"

He Zhi heard this, turned to look at him, and after a while, leaned over and kissed him on the face.

When he was about to back away after kissing, Lu Zhansheng held him back, and then responded with a long tongue kiss.

After the kiss, Lu Zhansheng hugged him in his arms, and the impatience caused by guilty conscience gradually calmed down, and his speech returned to normal.

"Don't be upset. I didn't think about it that much at the time. It won't be like that again next time."

"Ah."

He Zhi snuggled into his arms, gently rubbing his forehead against his chin. "I just feel a little sad."

"What are you sad about?" Lu Zhansheng said.

"Natural conditions in northern Shaanxi are too poor." He Zhi said, "It seems that we are powerless to change the suffering of life here."

Lu Zhansheng nodded thoughtfully.

"And." He Zhi reached out to touch his stomach. "I'm starving you."

"... "

Lu Zhansheng laughed.

"I can't go hungry without you, after all..."

When Lu Zhansheng spoke, he smiled and picked him up from the ground. As he walked towards the small shack, he pressed his forehead and said in a low voice, "I can eat you."

"... "

After a commotion in the small shack, Lu Zhansheng and He Zhi returned to the cave.

Zheng Yan and the others were lying on the big kang, groaning hungry. They planned to watch some fun to distract their attention, but they didn't expect that when Lu Zhansheng came in, not only did he not have a bad face, but he also looked beaming and in a good mood.

Zheng Yan asked He Zhi weakly: "What's the matter, Brother He Zhi, you didn't deal with him?"

"It's you who should clean up."

Lu Zhansheng countered directly: "It's all your fault, you still have the face to sow discord."

"Okay, it's me, I'm that bad boy, you're a good young man."

Zheng Yan said with a smile: "That's a good young man, how about sharing the handful of rotten peanuts in your pocket with your brother?"

"Hey, I want it too!" Song Jian said, "My stomach is burning with hunger, as if my mother wanted it."

Zhao Jun said: "My stomach is full, give me a few too."

"Split the fart."

Lu Zhansheng rolled his eyes at those people. "I threw it away long ago."

"Hey!"

Zheng Yan immediately shouted in disappointment: "Aren't you a fool, it's not too late to throw it away after being scolded, what a waste."

Lu Zhansheng ignored the group of people, went to pour a glass of water for himself and He Zhi, and then planned to sleep, and he would not feel hungry when he fell asleep. He had just picked up the kettle when Zhao Jun suddenly got up from the kang, and shouted Shouted: "Yes!"

Lu Zhansheng was most afraid of such a sudden big movement, he was so startled that he almost dropped the kettle.

"I suddenly remembered that there might be food in a place!" Zhao Jun said excitedly.

When the young men heard the words, they immediately looked over.

Zhao Jun continued: "Didn't you say before that Xia Shucheng and Ding Chi didn't take anything with them when they left, so they must have taken away the food from their family, aren't they very rich? There is food in stock."

"... "

After hearing this, Zheng Yan immediately got up from the kang, and then looked at Lu Zhansheng: "Lu Zhansheng, I remember, did they say they gave you the house?"

Lu Zhansheng pondered for a while, then looked at He Zhi.

He Zhi frowned and said, "Yes."

A few minutes later, Lu Zhansheng rummaged through the box and finally found the key that Ding Chi gave him. The young man rushed out of the educated youth spot and rushed to Xia Shucheng's house.

I don’t know if I don’t go, I’m surprised if I go.

Xia Shucheng's house was piled full of food.

There was also a note on the outermost bag. Lu Zhansheng went to take a look and found that it read:

Fool, I can only help you get here, the rest of the way depends entirely on yourself.

--------------------

The author has something to say:

Ding Chi: Be obedient and move here. As for being hungry for so long?

Xia Shucheng: I said we left too early.

Ding Chi: Everyone has their own way.

Xia Shucheng: That's right, this child has to suffer a lot before he can fully grow up.
