"Actually, when I first came here, I had already worked in the Corps to the position of Division Chief. If my father hadn't been sending telegrams after telegrams asking me to go back, I would be a Corps cadre now." Li Jianguo is here In the yard, he and Li Long were packing the meat and said.
"Why did dad want you to go back?"
"Because your second brother and you are both young, and he is the only one in the family. He has no backbone and cannot hold on." Li Jianguo sighed. He said in his tone, "My hometown is different from here. Just like what happened today, the more brothers you have, the greater the disadvantage..."
Although Li Qingxia has a higher seniority, if you take one more bite here, others may be hungry. In the age of half-full stomach, seniority may not be effective.
That’s why Li Qingxia asked Li Jianguo to come back to support his family.
Li Long could understand, but disagreed. However, there is no way to say who is right and who is wrong in this matter. Who makes Li Jianguo the eldest son?
"Less than a year after I returned, I knew that I would be useless if I stayed any longer. I would be trapped there if I couldn't help my family, so I came to Northern Xinjiang again.
Arrived Beijiang, I don’t want to go to the Corps anymore. I can’t stand the big restrictions, so I stayed in the county because I have some knowledge, so I was assigned to the planning team..."
"Planning team?" Li Long? I heard a new word and was a little curious.
"Well. At that time, there were no communes or villages like there are now. There were deserted beaches everywhere, and even if there were households, they were all in one house in the east and one in the west. For example, when we joined the team, there were only four or five households at that time. Zi people, half a kilometer to the west of Dongdagou, there is one household by Hongliu Beach, one household in Dongzhuangzi, we have two households here, and there are two households in the west. At that time, when people were called to meetings, they had to ride horses and carry guns. Preventing wolves is also a long way.”
Li Long nodded thoughtfully. The house to the east is no longer there now, but the dilapidated house and homestead are still there. There are ruins, and it can be seen that people lived there.
“The task of the planning team was to calculate the acres of land in each place and the wasteland that could be developed at that time, and then divide it into communes, brigades and teams. Blind Liu was in the south at that time, and villages had not yet been designated. He has been favored by his grandfather, this bastard, naughty thing..."
Li Long nodded, he was indeed a naughty bear.
"Who among the people on the team who came over one after another has not been treated well by her grandpa Juan? Every one of them...sigh."
Li Jianguo did not continue.
"Later, after the planning team's task was completed, I joined the well-drilling team and followed people everywhere to dig wells. Then I met Lao Gu. At that time, I didn't want to run around anymore. Our ancestors were farmers. There is a lot of land here and the water is good. , I just thought about staying here.
I also worked in the cafeteria when we were in a group...I forgot about it later. I also worked in the national fishery, but I finally came back.”
“Why can’t I do it?” Li Long was still confused, “How much salary does the fishery give you per month?” br>
"Fifty."
"Fifty? So high?" Li Long didn't believe it.
"Hey, you can't believe it? At that time, the director said that I can only give you fifty at most, because my salary as the director is only fifty. No matter how high it is, I don't have the right to decide. The main thing is that I can fish and manage the fishery. , I can also cook for others and manage accounts...but fifty is not enough.”
“Why is it not enough?”
"Your sister-in-law has two children, so she doesn't have to spend money? Plus you... Dad sent you here. You were still young and couldn't contribute much at that time. I just want to work in the fishery. The salary looks strange. How much is left for buying food and oil?..."
Li Long nodded silently, this is the truth. Money in northern Xinjiang is not as valuable as in the mainland. There are fewer people and things are more expensive. On the contrary, farmers have an easier time at this stage. As long as they are willing to work, they will at least have enough to eat.
Li Long was talking about these things with Li Jianguo when he delivered the meat to the Liang family, then rode to the compound and sent the remaining meat back to the Li family.
By this time, the matter with the Liang family had been resolved.
"Blind Liu did it on purpose." Li Jianguo could see it now, "The Ma family brothers are also troubled in his village. He is not like the military boys in our team. He suppresses Can't live , what should we do? We have to find someone who can deal with it. It’s those Ma family brothers who have offended her grandfather..."
Li Longxin said, isn’t this just a case of killing her own brothers? Are you using a gun?
But it doesn’t matter. No matter what the plan is at this time, solving the problem is important. At that time, if they had to endure being a turtle and not stand out, how could the Liang family live in the village?
"Brother, what will the Ma brothers do if they come after Wenyu and the others again?" Li Long was still a little worried.
"What should we do?" Li Jianguo sneered, "I just told Blind Liu that if anything happens to her maternal grandfather's family, I will blame it on his Ma family brothers! We usually don't say anything because we don't want to cause trouble. If they really dare to do anything wrong, I won’t give him his house!"
"Then..."
"Don’t worry about her. Grandpa's silence does not mean that she has no identity. She joined the revolution in the past three years and later returned home for some special reasons, but it does not mean that she has no identity. He just doesn't want to mention it... No one in his team knows about it. , that’s why, I clicked on Blind Man Liu when I left, he should understand.”
What the hell, it turns out that they are all hidden bosses!
Li Long was relieved, but after thinking about it, he still wanted to go and take a look when he had time.
"You did the right thing today. Come to us early, otherwise this matter will be troublesome." Li Jianguo gave Li Long a rare compliment.
"The main reason is that I didn't bring a gun with me at the time, and they were brothers, otherwise..."
"I'd better be careful in the future. The barrel of this gun is tight, so you can't take it out easily." We can't let anyone down."
"Okay. Then I'll go talk to the young people in the team. Said, let's do it tomorrow... Brother, I have to go back to the mountains in the evening, there is a deer in the mountains, and some offal..."
"Then you go quickly, I will take care of the people. There is nothing going on in the team now, the boys are all playing table tennis on the cement table in front of the preschool.”
"Concrete table? A specially made table tennis table?" Li Long was a little surprised. Why didn't he remember it? "What, it's not. It's the cement board that the transportation team built for the bridge repair. It's a long type. There is only one board left that is useless. I plan to get more. Now that the bridge is repaired, there is no use leaving the boards there. Those young people The man dug a hole on both sides, used a wooden board he cut as a racket, and placed bricks in the middle to play table tennis."
Li Long smiled. He remembered that he had participated in this activity in his previous life. The main reason was that there were too few cultural and entertainment activities in the village. Even if he could play table tennis, he could gather a group of people.
Li Long rode his bicycle out of the village and went to the big yard to get a gun. Before Gu Xiaoxia came back, he went directly to the mountains.
When we arrived at the cabin, it was still dark, and Li Long started to deal with the little wild boar.
During this period, the hungry and squealing fawn was released and allowed to eat some grass and drink some water.
What surprised Li Long was that the deer seemed to be in good spirits, and his relationship with him was no longer unfamiliar.
Because I was in a good mood, I peeled the skin quickly. After peeling, I rubbed salt on the meat and started to turn the intestines.
The work was done skillfully, and even after dark, the moonlight was not very bright to continue. It was quickly finished, and the firewood began to boil water.
While he was doing it, he thought, and finally realized that his eldest brother was also a legend.
Thinking about it, in fact, at that time, my eldest brother was only a teenager when he first entered Northern Xinjiang. He was only a few years older than his father when he sent him to Xinjiang. He was able to break through alone, and he was able to serve as chief of staff in the corps, and he could do simple things. ?
This story alone is a legend.
It’s just that I rarely heard my elder brother say this in the past, so I don’t know clearly.
After finishing the work, Li Long took a deep breath and sat down on the wooden floor, watching the firewood burning there. Occasionally, a ball of fire would burst out, flash for a moment, and then continue.
Both pots are filled with water, their intestines and stomachs are full. Don’t even think about going to bed early tonight.
The smell of dirty air wafted far away, and before the moon had even risen in the sky, the sound of wolves howling could be heard in the distance.
The deer, which was still grazing obediently, suddenly panicked and moved desperately towards the wooden house. Li Long simply took it back to the small room and closed the door and locked it.
Maybe this small room can give it some safety.
The pot had been boiling for a long time. Li Long came forward and poked at it with chopsticks. Seeing that it was already cooked, he removed the firewood from under the pot. After the things became warm, he took them out and put them away. On a wooden case that has been cleaned with water.
There was a wolf figure in the distance probing back and forth on the edge of the pine forest. Li Long picked up the gun beside the case and fired several shots in that direction.
The wolf was so frightened that it ran into the forest.
I’ve beaten them enough and I don’t want to deal with too many, just scare them away.
Otherwise, Li Long will get a few pieces of water and put them here as bait to ambush him.
The aroma was so fragrant that Li Long drew a knife and cut a piece of his belly. The smell was so delicious.
He carried these things into the house, and then went to pour the soup in the pot into the stream to clean it. Otherwise, the cast iron pot would probably not be saved tomorrow morning.
After all, in those days, a panda licking the salt on the pot was said to be an iron-eating beast. The soup was so fragrant that someone might come over to try it in the middle of the night. If a bear came over, that would be quite troublesome.
Although Li Long also wanted to get bear bile, that thing was dangerous. If he couldn't kill him with one shot, he might be beaten by a bear.
After tidying up outside, Li Long entered the house, locked the door, and lay on the bed ready to rest.
This day was really exciting. I hunted in the morning, hunted people in the afternoon, and almost hunted a wolf in the evening... Oh, it was so exciting.
Li Long slept until dawn the next day.
After getting up, he opened the door with a gun. It was indeed a bit messy outside. There were many claw and hoof marks when pouring the soup, and there were also traces of arching in the spring water. Is this an animal crossing tonight?
But now they have disappeared.
He cut some offal and ate it at will, then he took the deer out, tied its hooves and put it on the back seat of the bicycle.
As for the meat and internal organs of the little wild boar, he wrapped them directly in gauze, put them in two bags, and tied them to both sides of the bicycle handlebars. He put the gun on his back and rode his bicycle down the mountain.
When we arrived at the compound, we first put the deer down and moved around to prevent the blood from suffocating and the legs would become useless. Then we put down a bag of cooked offal in the kitchen, and then continued riding to the team.
After finishing the work, you have to ask the team for a homestead.
Whether to build a house or not is another matter, the homestead site must be determined first.
