Chapter 33 Small talk
"Tomorrow the village will start to redistribute the land. Once the land is divided, I will come to help you."
After the meal, Wang Lixian also noticed that Chen Ling was Things have changed. He hopes that Chen Ling can learn well and live a down-to-earth life.
I also heard Wang Jusheng say during dinner that the land that Chen Ling transferred from Er Zhu had grass sprouts sprouting this year. He should take good care of it. In two years, it might not be worse than fertile land, and I felt like it. Willing to help him.
“Huh? Brother Xian, you won’t go out this year?”
Chen Ling was stunned for a moment and asked.
"I'm not going. I still haven't paid more than half of my wages. I don't know if I can get it back. My grandson is very clueless."
"Otherwise, my family won't be able to celebrate the New Year. I can’t even eat the meat.”
Wang Lixian spat angrily.
"Huh? Isn't Brother Xian working with the contractor team of the stinky soldiers in the village?"
"This guy is just like Brother Erzhu, and he still has wages that he won't get back?"
Wang Jusheng asked strangely.
"It's different this time. The project is in the city. The big boss from Xiangjiang came to pay for the construction of the building. He ran away as soon as he said he would run away. The few people Er Zhu knew in the county were of no use. "
Wang Lixian sighed, reached into his pocket to take out tobacco leaves, and prepared to roll a cigarette.
Seeing this, Wang Jusheng hurriedly handed over his cigarette, "Brother Xian smokes this for me."
This guy didn't know what to talk about with Wang Lixian at first, and his words seemed stiff.
The main reason is that the two of them have nothing in common.
As a result, after a few glasses of wine, Wang Jusheng became drunk and stopped caring about anything. That was called too much.
When Chen Ling spoke, he chatted with them, and when Wang Lixian spoke, he chatted with them. Even when Hei Wa and Xiao Jin barked twice, he still had to tease the two little guys a few times.
After teasing, I had to ask Chen Ling how he was feeding this puppy that he brought back before weaning.
He kept talking for a long time, just like Tang Monk reciting sutras.
That's right, he lit a cigarette for Wang Lixian and asked: "Brother Xian is in the construction team now, how is the salary?"
Wang Lixian didn't hide it from him and took a puff of cigarette. Said: "Last year it was fifteen yuan a day."
"Oh! Four hundred and fifty yuan a month, which is higher than the salary of a middle school teacher!"
When Wang Jusheng heard this, he immediately exclaimed road.
Chen Ling said with a smile: "That's the kind of treatment only Brother Xian can get. For ordinary workers, two hundred yuan a month is considered good."
"Well, what Fugui said That’s right.”
“I’ve been working for more than ten years, and it’s not much.”
“Besides, I still owe more than half of it.”< br>
Wang Lixian smoked a cigarette and smiled lightly.
This was just ordinary chatting. Wang Lixian was not the kind of person who would complain when meeting people outside.
But when Chen Ling listened, he could feel the difficulty for Wang Lixian.
Not only are there many children in the family, but his wife and eldest daughter are still mute. His eldest daughter is only a few years younger than Chen Ling. She will soon be at the age where marriage is being discussed, and getting married is a problem.
Not only that, his fifth grader also has to take the exam this year, and Liu Nier has also reached the age of elementary school, and the tuition and miscellaneous fees are not a small amount.
It’s really a lot of pressure for him to carry it alone.
"Aling, Brother Jusheng, the porridge is hot. You two have a bowl of porridge to slow down the alcohol."
At this time, Wang Susu came over with a pot of hot porridge.
This is the porridge that was just made. Everyone else had eaten it. Chen Ling and Wang Jusheng were the only ones drinking. They didn't even bother to drink it and let it cool down.
“No, no, I really can’t drink any more.”
Wang Jusheng waved his hands and said, the food was so delicious that his belly was about to burst, how could he still drink the porridge? .
"Brother Jusheng doesn't want to drink, then serve me a bowl."
Chen Ling handed over the bowl. His porridge was a good thing and should not be wasted.
“When did you become so good at eating wealth?”
Good guy, Wang Lixian was dumbfounded when he saw it.
"That's right, my belly is almost bursting. You eat less than me, and your belly is not bulging at all."
Wang Jusheng also grunted and patted his bulging belly, feeling very puzzled.
"Haha, I still haven't let go. If I let go, I can eat a cow."
Chen Ling held the bowl of porridge and boasted. Of course the others didn't believe it. A few people chatted and laughed, and soon it was past nine o'clock.
“Oh, I forgot the time just by talking. It’s so late, I should go home!”
Wang Jusheng rubbed his drunken eyes. After standing up, his belly was as bulging as that of a pregnant woman. It was obvious that he was too full and the food had not yet been eaten.
Not only him, but also Wang Lixian and Liu Nier, especially Liu Nier who was obviously much bigger than his father. When he stood up, his belly was as swollen as a small watermelon.
"Well, my father and I are back too."
"Susu, get a flashlight for Brother Xian and Brother Jusheng. It's quite dark outside now."
< br>Chen Ling touched Liu Nier's head and said.
In this era, rural areas had few electrical appliances and no street lights. It was already so dark after nine o'clock that I couldn't even see my hands when I stretched out my arms.
I really can’t see my fingers.
"No, no, no, I'm very close. I'll be there in just two steps."
Wang Lixian waved his hands and refused to take it.
Wang Jusheng drank too much and tried to show his strength, so Chen Ling had to force it on them before he would accept it.
"Fugui, I will come to help you tomorrow!"
Wang Jusheng pushed the car unsteadily and did not forget to drop a sentence.
"Hey, this guy..."
"More noisy than Brother Xian."
Watching them leave, Chen Ling smiled and shook his head.
"It's better to be lively."
Wang Susu pursed her lips and smiled, and took Chen Ling's arm. She was obviously in a good mood.
Indeed, where did anyone in the village interact with Chen Ling before?
Even if I came to his house to visit, in addition to watching his family jokes, the elders would advise Chen Ling to learn better.
I have never been so happy and lively. Wang Susu is naturally very happy.
I am even more convinced that Chen Ling wants to get better.
......
Chen Ling has been cleaning up the wasteland for the next few days.
Wang Jusheng helped every day. Although Wang Lixian didn't come because he had something to do, he also sent his second son-in-law's donkey.
Donkeys and horses plow faster than oxen.
Two donkeys or two horses can plow a field as efficiently as a small tractor.
Furthermore, because I have trimmed the second pillar, it is relatively flat.
They plowed three or four acres of land in the morning, three or four acres in the afternoon, and within a few days they had plowed most of the thirty acres of land.
There are still more than ten acres of land that have not been plowed, so Chen Ling plans to plant some grain and vegetables, dig a pond, plant some lotus flowers, and raise some fish.
After finishing the work, Chen Ling and Wang Jusheng had a midday meal and rushed towards Wang Laishun's house together.
Chen Ling wanted to return the donkey cart, while Wang Jusheng went to see how his family's land allocation was going.
When we arrived at Wang Laishun's house, many villagers were talking outside the door, discussing which family had the better land and which family had the worse land.
Why is it so unlucky to be neighbors with so-and-so? So-and-so is too unreasonable and always eats (occupies) other people's land. After being my neighbor for several years, I lost three points of land.
The group of people were talking lively when they suddenly saw Chen Ling and Wang Jusheng approaching, and they all stopped talking.
I have heard from many people these days that Wang Jusheng and Chen Ling are hanging out together. In fact, not only have they heard from others, they have also seen Wang Jusheng helping Chen Ling plow the fields several times.
But now I feel surprised to see these two people walking together.
It is unbelievable that the only college student in Chen Wangzhuang is mixed up with Chen Ling, the most unattractive lazy guy in the village.
At this time, Chen Ling took down the peanuts and vegetables from the donkey cart and walked into Wang Laishun's house.
I have been using a donkey cart for half a month, so I still have to express it.
Even though Wang Jusheng said no several times, his father had already separated from his brothers, and the donkey was raised by his father and not by him.
"Hey, Rich is here, come in and sit down!"
Seeing Chen Ling take something again, Liang Guizhen was very enthusiastic this time. She had inquired about it, greenhouse vegetables are good things.
Go to the county vegetable market to buy it. It costs two yuan per pound, which is very expensive!
