Chapter 105 Debris Flow
"Auntie is a big slacker."
Su Qingyue was in a daze when she heard Su Zhuangzhuang's voice. She rubbed her eyes and woke up and saw that it was indeed Zhuangzhuang. "Where is your uncle?"
Su Qingxi raised her head from the book and said, "Brother-in-law has gone to work. The food will be left in the pot for you so that you can eat it after you have had enough sleep."
Su Qingyue rubbed her face twice and touched her belly. Recently, her sleepiness had become more and more serious and her body became heavier and heavier.
"Why don't you two go to school?"
"Sister, today is Saturday."
Su Qingyue slapped her head, feeling like she was going to be stupid because of her pregnancy. She put on her cotton clothes and said, "Let's dry the quilt after dinner."
A bowl of egg custard was hot in the pot in the kitchen, and four white eggs were steamed. Pei Huaiye said that pregnant women should pay attention to nutrition and asked her to eat more eggs every day.
A plate of fried tofu, a plate of stir-fried cabbage, and three flower rolls.
Su Zhuangzhuang and Su Qingxi had eaten in the morning, but the half-grown children had good appetites, so Su Qingyue shared breakfast with the two cubs.
Su Qingxi couldn't help but sigh, "Brother-in-law's cooking is so delicious. How early should I get up early to steam these rolls? I also cook them for you. Sister, you are so happy."
Zhuangzhang chewed the soft flower roll with his eyes rolling, "Aunt, uncle, will you still make the flower roll tomorrow?"
He sipped the scent on his fingers and said, "I want to take it to school and use it as dry food to make the classmates in the class hungry. Hehe."
Su Qingyue pinched his little face and smiled fondly, "Okay, let uncle steam a big pot tomorrow and leave some more for you two."
After the meal, Su Qingyue put away the stove and felt sleepy again.
She smiled and patted her cheek, and asked her sister to help take out the bedding from the two bedrooms to dry them.
He took the two children to the brigade office and said, "You are just playing in the threshing floor."
"Go ahead, sister, I'm looking at Zhuangzhuang."
Su Qingxi finished her homework and sat under the eaves to bask in the sun.
In autumn and winter, the threshing floor became a good place to bask in the sun. Granny Song and her little yellow dog, Widow Liu's three dolls, and Xiang Jianming's grandchildren were all there.
The children go to school together every day, and now during the holidays they are playing eagle and catching chickens in the threshing floor.
The processing plant is located next to the threshing floor. When the adults are tired from working, they sit down and rest for a while.
Liu Shu took an enamel jar and took the initiative to deliver it to Widow Liu every hour. Everyone in the family was envious when he saw it, and Widow Liu felt as sweet as honey.
"I heard from Zhuangzhuang that Liu Shu was very active in answering questions in class and is a good student."
Su Qingyue praised her a few words, and Widow Liu pulled her aside, "Shen Xunbao asked the captain yesterday to find an easy job for his wife, but the captain didn't agree, so he will probably ask you for help."
Su Qingyue was about to say no, when she heard Su Qianqian carrying a basket of eggs and greeting her warmly from a distance, "Sister Qingyue, I'm looking for you."
"Look, it's coming, please be careful."
After Widow Liu finished speaking, she went back to light the fire.
"You have something to do with me?" Su Qingyue said calmly.
"Sister Qingyue, I really have no choice. I'm pregnant now and can't do heavy work. Can you help me arrange some easy work?"
Su Qingyue was about to say that you don't have to work, you can just pay for work points.
Su Qianqian pointed to her belly, "I can indeed pay to find someone, but I don't have much money. Everything will cost money after the child is born. I have to make plans for the future."
"Qingyue, I know that we need people now to pick soybeans and dry black beans. Do you think I can help?"
Su Qingyue held her forehead, "The factory director is Captain Xiang, and he makes the final decision on these things. I can't directly decide who will do what job. Let's do this. We will list all the positions in the next few days, and then everyone will interview and vote together. Decision." Many people in the threshing floor watched them speak. It was hard for Su Qingyue to speak too harshly. This would be the recruitment process in the future anyway, so it would be better to say it in public.
If Su Qianqian is not chosen then, you can't blame her.
"Sister Qingyue, thank you. You can take these eggs back and replenish them."
"No, you better keep it to yourself if you're pregnant."
Su Qingyue would never accept her things, and Su Qianqian didn't ask for trouble, and walked away with the eggs with a smile.
In the afternoon, Su Qingyue was collecting quilts, and Li Zilan hurried over, "Qingyue, the Qingshan team drove the tractor into the river!"
"It opened in the river? Who opened it?"
Li Zilan said to Su Qingyue while walking.
"The deputy captain of the Qingshan team, his name is Zhang Huarui. They hired someone to repair it, but it won't be fine for a while because the cart is in the river and the grain cannot be hauled to Shuangqiao Commune. They also borrowed all the ox carts from the surrounding villages. .”
Xiang Jianming was pacing back and forth in the office, "What should we do? Because we are delivering food to Shuangqiao Public Company, all three bullock carts in Pingshu Village have been borrowed."
"The tofu we will deliver to Hongqi Supply and Marketing Cooperative tomorrow can only be hauled by oxcart, but we can't finish it in one go."
“And the tiles and bricks from the processing plant haven’t been shipped yet!”
Su Qingyue pinched her palms and said, "Where did you buy it? Let them find a way to deliver it from the county. We will pay for the transportation fee."
"It can't be delivered. The tractor drove into the river because of a landslide and rocks rolling on the mountain, blocking the road."
Su Qingyue frowned, it hadn't rained recently, how could there be a landslide.
She didn't have time to think too much, solving the problem was the most important thing at the moment.
"Captain, please grab someone and go build the road now. Try to build a shortcut to get out."
"I think so too. At least we can let the bullock cart pass by. I'll go call someone now."
Xiang Jianming shouted a few times with a loudspeaker and mobilized the men to build the road with hoes.
But there are still some people who are unwilling to go. Not only do they have no money, but it also affects their ability to earn work points.
Su Qianqian rushed out of the crowd at this time and shouted loudly, "Don't forget, everyone, if this road is not repaired for one day, bean sprouts and tofu will not be delivered to the county supply and marketing cooperative. If the factory is delayed for one day, we will lose one day's income." Money!”
"Let's not disappoint Captain Xiang and Su Qingyue. They have finally led us to make money. We cannot be blind wolves."
"I am a pregnant woman, but I also want to build roads. I want my children to go to school in the future, and the conditions in the village will be good in the future, so they will not have to live a hard life."
After she finished speaking, she dragged Shen Xunbao towards the entrance of the village without waiting for anyone's reply.
Everyone looked at each other, and some people were actually persuaded to follow her.
In addition, Xiang Jianming shouted a few more times, and most of the men followed him to build the road.
Su Qingyue didn't know what Su Qianqian was planning, so after thinking about it, she decided to go and have a look, "Sister-in-law, brother, keep an eye on the processing plant and don't let anyone take advantage of it."
When we got to the road that was flooded by the landslide, we saw that the road was so badly damaged that it could not be repaired in a day or two.
Su Qingyue frowned even more tightly.
Suddenly the rocks on the mountain rolled down again without warning.
"Qingyue! Get out of the way!"
Before Su Qingyue fell into coma, she heard Pei Huaiye's shrill screams.
