Chapter 45 really needs to be clicked (please follow up)

The mountain road has eighteen bends, and you can run to death while looking at the mountain.

Xu Ye and the others were busy on their way without much rest along the way.

It takes four or five hours to go to the county seat, so they rarely go there.

This time, it was mainly because Heihu Ridge was relatively close to the county seat.

"It would be great if we had a carriage or bicycle, so that we could go back to the village faster." Zhang Sanbao wiped the sweat from his face.

To be honest, he didn't dare to think about this before.

But after following Xu Ye into the mountains twice, he dared.

In the past, when he and his father went into the mountains, they would hunt some small game, eat some meat, and store the skins.

In a year, the income can be up to thirty or forty yuan.

But it's different now. Two trips only cost thirty or forty yuan.

As long as you run diligently, wouldn't you be able to afford this bike in a month?

He felt that a better life was already beckoning towards him crazily.

If anyone dares to damage it, he will be the first to go up and cut it.

"There will be, there will be bicycles, there will be houses. In the near future, many people will be able to drive cars and live in small bungalows."

As soon as we enter the 1980s, life will get better and better, become more and more hopeful, and enter a stage of rapid development.

Even if it begins to stagnate in later generations, it will still be an earth-shaking change for the present.

Hearing Xu Ye's description, Jiang Ruyue couldn't help but yearn for it.

That kind of life feels particularly beautiful just thinking about it.

"Will there really be such a day?" Zhang Sanbao couldn't help but doubt.

Nowadays, many people don’t even have enough to eat, so they have no money to build houses or buy cars.

There are not many cars in the county.

Moreover, learning to drive is not an easy task.

Working in the fields all day long, there was no time to learn how to drive.

If you want to go to school, who will farm?

"There will come a day when our country is the greatest country and will catch up with Europe and the United States in a very short time and live a wonderful life like them."

Xu Ye has experienced it before, being pushed forward together with all living beings.

Hearing what Xu Ye said, Zhang Sanbao felt full of energy and walked a little faster.

They arrived home just after one o'clock at noon.

The door to Li's house was closed, but not locked.

Locks are very rare these days.

Some are also used to lock some cabinets and so on, but not the door.

Pushing the door open, Xu Ye and Jiang Ruyue saw Li Qian playing in the mud.

"My dear, Uncle Ye."

Seeing Xu Ye and Jiang Ruyue opening the door and coming in, Li Qian shouted excitedly and ran to them quickly.

Xu Ye put down his things and rubbed her little head.

"Where are your aunt and sister-in-law?"

This time when he went to the county town, he didn't buy any candy.

"They went to work."

"There is still food in the pot. Auntie said you will come back today and let me heat it up. Come and eat quickly." With that, Li Qian was about to serve the food.

At this time, children begin to do housework and take care of children early, and they can help the family with a lot of work.

Some boys aged seven or eight have already gone to the mountains to collect firewood.

If they are older, they will collect firewood and cut grass.

Only a very small number can go to school because there is too little labor.

"We'll come by ourselves. We've already eaten some sweet potatoes on the way." Jiang Ruyue couldn't let a child do this and hurriedly walked to the kitchen.

Xu Ye went to wash his face. There was dust on the road now, and there was dust all the way back. Before washing, you should pat the dust on your body.

Jiang Ruo'an loved Xu Ye, and half of the sweet potato rice left was white rice.

No need to guess, he knew that Jiang Ruo'an and Li Qian must be eating pure sweet potato rice.

The family is still poor and cannot afford a meal of white rice.

After having lunch and resting for a while, Xu Ye and Jiang Ruyue went to the brigade to buy river sand.

If he wants to build a forge, bathroom, and toilet, he must have river sand to mix the cement.

Digging by himself was a waste of time. He could have used this time to build brick walls.

Xu Ye first bought a dollar worth of sand and carried it home with Jiang Ruyue in several trips.

Then, Jiang Ruyue followed suit and stirred the cement.

To her, this was a very new thing.

In order to save cement, Xu Ye also added some yellow mud.

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

It wasn't that Xu Ye didn't want to buy more, but the purchasing station gave him a ticket for two bags of cement.

Without the tickets, he had no way to buy cement.

Cement tickets are in short supply, and the buying station is willing to give two packages, but only for the sake of the golden cat skin.

The yellow mud here has relatively good viscosity, and after being mixed with sand and cement, it has sufficient viscosity and strength.

After mixing, Xu Ye made a simple wooden trowel using wooden boards and nails.

When he went to the county seat, he originally wanted to buy a set of mason's tools, but he didn't have the tickets.

All of these things require tickets.

He also checked the black market and found that those tools were not for sale.

At that time, he went to buy a watch to see if he had those tools or cement.

Unfortunately, there is none he needs.

But he just built a wall first, and a wooden trowel was enough.

When you need to plaster the walls and floors with cement, think of another way.

There are always more solutions than difficulties, and Xu Ye is still relatively optimistic.

Xu Ye built the bathroom in the room inside the kitchen because Xu Ye wanted to demolish this room.

Also, prepare to divert water from behind the house.

Isn't there a half-meter-wide canal between the Li family and the Fan family? That's because there is a small waterfall in their back hill, and the water flow is quite large.

If there is a water pipe, the water can be brought back so that the home has running water.

The source of the water is a mountain spring, and the water quality is very good.

If there is a generator, it can also be installed under the waterfall, which can completely drive a small hydroelectric generator for use by several households.

Of course, they can't afford it right now.

"Xu Ye, can this bathroom be used at night?" Jiang Ruyue asked involuntarily when she started laying bricks.

"That's definitely not possible. After laying the bricks, we have to work for a few days and then put cement on the surface."

"I'm going to make one that can take a shower. It's too inconvenient to fetch water by myself."

Most people nowadays take cold showers, and hot showers are a luxury.

"That's it. I want to rub your back and massage it in the evening." Jiang Ruyue said with a blushing face.

Give me a back rub and massage?

Are you trying to rub my back?

Xu Ye didn't want to expose her.

Jiang Ruyue couldn't help Xu Ye rub his back when he usually took a shower in the yard.

If someone catches you, something may happen.

Jiang Ruyue finally worked up the courage, Xu Ye didn't want her to hit a wall.

So, he looked at her rosy face and said: "You can still have a massage. I do have some back pain these days and I really need some massage."

"Okay!" Jiang Ruyue suddenly became happy and put down her little hand that had nowhere to rest.
