Chapter 393 How Infuriating
Chapter 393 How Infuriating
In the tranquil and peaceful village of Qunshan, the morning begins with Grandpa Jiang's resonant and affectionate call. Sunlight filters through the dappled leaves, casting shadows on the ground. As people slowly awaken from their slumber, they stretch and yawn, welcoming the new day.
After washing up, everyone gathered around the dining table to enjoy breakfast. Steaming rice porridge, fragrant steamed buns, and homemade pickled vegetables—though simple, they were filled with a rich, rural flavor.
After dinner, the villagers headed towards the threshing ground, where an important activity was about to begin: land reclamation. Along the way, everyone chatted and laughed about the plans and expectations for this land reclamation.
Arriving at the threshing ground, a crowd gradually gathered. Liu Qian stepped forward and explained in detail the specific arrangements and precautions for land reclamation. He assigned tasks in a clear and organized manner, ensuring that everyone knew exactly what they were supposed to do.
Just as Liu Qian was explaining, Grandpa Jiang suddenly interrupted, "There's one more thing I need to tell you. In six months, I'll be retiring, and I'll have to find someone to take over my position. What do you think of Liu Qian? If he takes over, would you agree?"
Upon hearing this, a murmur erupted among the crowd. Some nodded in agreement, praising Liu Qian's hard work and dedication; others remained silent, seemingly still pondering. But overall, most people were quite supportive of Liu Qian. After all, in a place like Qunshan Village, where the people were simple and honest, a person's character and abilities were readily apparent to all.
Grandpa Jiang continued, "Of course, there's no rush. We still have six months to consider and assess the situation. During this time, please observe Liu Qian's performance and see if he's truly capable of handling the job. After all, you'll be the ones dealing with him every day in the future!"
Liu Qian didn't care about everyone's reaction. He just did his job well. After Grandpa Jiang finished speaking, he went on to talk about the next arrangements. From Liu Qian's words, it can be seen that he really observed and thought carefully yesterday.
After listening to Liu Qian's words, Grandpa Jiang looked at everyone with a smile.
"It's still early, you can go back to sleep for a while." However, his words aroused the children's dissatisfaction. They nodded their heads and murmured softly, "Grandpa Jiang, what you said is really annoying. You woke us up, and you still want us to go back to sleep! We must be so sleepy to fall asleep again!"
However, you know what, there were a few particularly carefree people in the crowd who actually yawned, looking like they were still sleepy.
These people were of course the people in the Jiang family courtyard. They seemed calm and composed. To them, no matter who took over Grandpa Jiang's job in the end, it didn't matter.
Because in Qunshan Village, there is no such thing as buying votes. Everyone will vote fairly and impartially to choose the most capable and suitable person.
Just like that, amidst the clamor, a new day of life in Qunshan Village officially began...
Those who wanted to sleep turned around and went home to rest, while the rest of the people who had no desire to sleep went straight to the brigade headquarters without hesitation. After receiving various farm tools, they went to the wasteland and started working hard.
Life goes on, and movement never stops!
You know, the villages around them have now started vegetable greenhouse planting projects in full swing.
Judging from the current situation, I believe that by the end of this year, everyone will have some economic benefits.
Even over in the cowshed, someone was concentrating on researching how to grow melons! Unfortunately, the place always attracted swarms of nasty rats to cause trouble, giving them a headache.
At this moment, Liu Qian, carrying a heavy hoe on his shoulder, strode forward, turning his head to look at Grandpa Jiang beside him, muttering to himself, "Brother, what do you think we should plant this time when we reclaim the land? If we plant corn and soybeans now, I'm afraid it's a bit too late."
Grandpa Jiang narrowed his eyes slightly, thought for a moment, and then replied, "In my opinion, it would be better for us to order a variety of dishes.
After all, it’s hard for us to eat a few bites of the fresh vegetables grown in the greenhouse this year. So we need to plant more vegetables of our own.
In addition, planting some peanuts is also a good choice, and corn is also fine, but the harvest may be a little later.
But then again, the most urgent task is to find a way to improve the soil quality of these newly reclaimed wastelands. After all, these are just newly reclaimed lands, so don't expect a surprisingly good harvest in the first year.
Oh! By the way, I have to stop by later to ask if I can grow some Chinese medicinal herbs or something like that here. ” As he was talking, Grandpa Jiang suddenly turned a corner and walked quickly towards the cowshed.
Now, everyone in Qunshan Village knows the people in the cowshed by heart. Normally, everyone greets each other and talks and laughs when they meet, but as soon as outsiders come, everyone pretends not to know them.
Everyone in the Youth League Home knew about it, so they just pretended not to know.
Liu Qian was watching Grandpa Jiang's pace from behind, and he was so angry! "You are so energetic. With your energy, I think you can work for a few more years without any problem.
Always thinking about retirement." Liu Qian followed Grandpa Jiang to the cowshed with resentment.
When we arrived at the cowshed, several people there were eating. Everyone was there.
"Oh, Old Min, I have a question for you. You said that the land we are reclaiming is suitable for growing some Chinese medicinal herbs. After you finish your meal, come with us to see what is suitable to grow. We will find a way to get some seeds and plant them. This will also be a source of income in the future.
Also, let's plant some medicinal herbs so that we can prepare medicine for headaches and fevers in the future." Grandpa Jiang sat down on the stone bench in the yard and stated his purpose without hesitation.
Min Yueyang looked at Grandpa Jiang, rolled his eyes, swallowed the food in his mouth, and then spoke: "You are really impatient. You didn't let anyone sleep in so early in the morning. Now you come to find work for me again. Wait." Min Yueyang continued to eat slowly. He got up and started working, and didn't let people eat properly. This old man was really annoying. Who knew when his apprentices would come back. The only person who could control him was his own granddaughter Jiang Junjun.
"When will Jiang Junjun and the others arrive?" Yang Tiejun also missed those children a little.
"It will probably take another month or so. Those people who are driving back must have fun along the way." Grandpa Jiang said with envy.
