Chapter 11
He Fangzhi quickly returned from the back of the house with a bundle of small vegetables tied with a straw rope. "We don't have much vegetables at home. Take this back and try it."
Yang Sulan saw that she actually plucked such tender vegetables and opened his mouth in surprise. "You're crazy. There's only so little vegetables and you actually plucked them."
He Fangzhi awkwardly tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. "I was planting vegetables this time and scattered the seeds too densely. That's why …"
Hearing this, Yang Sulan relaxed a little, but her face showed a little suspicion. "Weren't you very good at planting vegetables in the past?
How come you can't even plant the seeds properly? "
"It was just a few days ago. I was lying on the kang bed and couldn't move. Hong Ye wanted to help me, but it was the first time I was planting seeds and my hands weren't accurate. That's why …" He Fangzhi patiently explained to her.
Yang Sulan finally understood and nodded.
That's right. The vegetables would definitely take more than 20 days to grow. Cousin was still lying on the kang bed at that time.
Yang Sulan put the vegetables in the bamboo basket and turned to leave.
He Fangzhi quickly grabbed her sleeve. "Cousin, did Wei Zhiqing cause trouble again?"
"No, our father has a big opinion of her and has been watching her."
Yang Sulan thought about Wei Yuhong who had been slacking off in the past few days and disdained her. "She's already an adult, but she only earns four work points a day. How embarrassing."
Their production team counted eight catties of weeds for one work point.
This work was simple. Even a four-year-old child could do it.
A half-grown child could earn six or seven work points a day, but she only earned four work points.
Yang Sulan gloated again. "Let's see how she eats in the future."
If she didn't have enough work points, she would either have to spend money to make up for it or go to the reservoir in the winter to repair the dam. Otherwise, she would receive less food than others.
He Fangzhi knew that she was talking to him.
Previously, because she saw Zhang Xiangyang and Wei Yuhong flirting with each other, she urged her to divorce Zhang Xiangyang.
However, because of this, Yang Sulan was severely scolded by his father-in-law.
He Fangzhi also heard about it from Hong Ye.
Hong Ye heard it from Yang Sulan's eldest son, Hong Gen.
He Fangzhi held her hand and said gratefully, "Cousin, don't get into a fight with your in-laws because of me.
I'm fine here. "
Yang Sulan had been feeling guilty all these years. When her youngest son was one month old, her cousin came to visit her with gifts.
Her brother-in-law saw it and had evil intentions.
Her mother-in-law could tell that something was amiss and insisted that she stay the night.
That night, something had happened.
She still remembered the villagers standing at the door of their East Wing and pointing at her disheveled cousin on the bed.
She knew her cousin's temperament very well. She would never fancy a good-for-nothing like her brother-in-law. It must be the mother and daughter who had put something in her cousin's food.
Because of this, she disregarded her image as a good daughter-in-law and argued with her mother-in-law.
Her father-in-law was in the wrong and took her side.
However, her brother-in-law was his son after all, and he didn't want his youngest son to reform through labor.
So he told her to stop making trouble.
Her cousin also married him for the sake of her reputation.
The two of them lived a peaceful life for more than a year.
Ever since those brightly colored educated youths came over, he started to be lustful again.
He even almost beat her cousin to death. She wanted to persuade her cousin to divorce him no matter what.
Her cousin also regretted it, but she didn't want her stepmother to abuse her own child, so she could only continue to endure.
Yang Sulan held her hand and suddenly whispered something in her ear. In the end, she asked, "What do you think?"
He Fangzhi opened her mouth in surprise. Apparently, she was stunned by the surprise. "This … will it work?"
"Yes, it will work!"
Yang Sulan patted her shoulder. "You suffered a lot a few days ago. They must compensate you."
"Okay, okay. Thank you, cousin.
If it weren't for you, I don't know how to live my life. "The original owner of this body's cousin was really nice.
He Fangzhi felt warm when he saw her.
Yang Sulan smiled and squeezed her hand. Then, she left with the bamboo basket.
He Fangzhi waited until her back disappeared at the end of the alley before he turned around and went into the house.
If it really worked, she wouldn't have to worry about raising a child in the future.
He Fangzhi put all the books on the high table in the living room.
The house was very simple and there wasn't even a bookshelf.
She took out one of the books and flipped through a few pages. She found that she didn't know most of the words in the book.
However, the words were very simple. There were fewer strokes than the words she knew in her previous life. It was easier to write.
But who should she ask to teach her how to read?
"Father, you are back?" Hong Ye's voice came from the courtyard. He Fangzhi immediately came back to his senses and closed the book.
Zhang Xiangyang not only went fishing in the morning, but he also went fishing in the evening before the sky turned dark.
Just like how farmers relied on God to farm, he relied on luck to fish.
These two days, his luck was a bit bad.
From yesterday until today, he didn't catch a single fish.
Hong Ye didn't see any fish, so she was a bit disappointed.
But then, she saw that her father's bamboo basket was half filled with big river snails. Her eyes lit up. "Father, where did you get these?"
Zhang Xiangyang poured the river snails into the basin and then began to wash the water.
Hong Ye was a little girl. She took the initiative to help her father scoop the water.
"There is a branch near the reservoir. There is some water stored there. I saw that there were many river snails inside, so I brought some back."
Hong Ye looked at the river snails with a curious expression.
Hongxin squeezed her little head and also came over to take a look.
Zhang Xiangyang washed his hands and put the fishing rod behind the central room. When he turned around, he saw his wife standing next to the high table covered with books. He was a bit surprised. "Where did you get these books?"
He Fangzhi patted the books. "I heard from Li Zhiqing at the educated youth center that the college entrance exam will be reinstated in two years. I want to revise. Maybe I can get into college."
Zhang Xiangyang opened his mouth in surprise. So his wife was also a cultured person?
This was really a pleasant surprise. "That's great.
When the time comes, I will revise with you and improve together. "
He Fangzhi's heart thumped. If she studied with him, wouldn't the fact that she was half illiterate be exposed?
Although she was anxious, she looked calm on the surface. She followed his words and asked, "Didn't you say that you want to work?"
Zhang Xiangyang picked up the thermos bottle on the high table and poured himself a cup of hot water.
"I will revise as I work.
The college entrance exam will take two years. I can't stay at home all the time. "
He looked back at the two children playing outside. "Also, I am the pillar of the family. It is my responsibility to support the family."
He Fangzhi thought to herself, Who doesn't know how to say nice things? You can do it.
She asked again, "Then two years later, what will you do with your job?"
"When the time comes, I will transfer the job to Big Brother." Zhang Xiangyang was not worried about this.
"Then if we both go to school, what will happen to the children?" He Fangzhi thought that this person was a bit whimsical.
Even if it was free to go to college, he still had to support the children.
Zhang Xiangyang pondered for a moment. "So we have to save more money in the next two years."
After graduation four years, it would be just in time for the reform and opening up. Then the opportunity would come.
It was just that in the early stages, he had to save up some money.
But how should he earn money?
He unconsciously touched his pocket and suddenly felt a stack of notes. He took it out and saw that it was the cloth notes that Jin Hongjun had given him the other day. He had forgotten about them.
"What is this?" He Fangzhi leaned over to take a look.
There was a faint fragrance on her body. Zhang Xiangyang immediately smelled it when she got close.
"Why do you smell so good?" Zhang Xiangyang smelled like he had just been fished out of the water. His whole body smelled like sweat.
But fortunately, he did not have body odor. Otherwise, he would not be able to stand it.
He Fangzhi was slightly startled. "It's nothing. I just got it on me when I was cutting the grass."
She calmly took two steps back.
She had applied her family's special fragrance on her body.
After applying this kind of thing, it would make people feel very comfortable. Its smell was also very faint. Only people with a very sensitive sense of smell would be able to smell it if they were very close.
But she did not expect that Zhang Xiangyang would be able to smell it. It was a miscalculation.
"This is the cloth note.
You can have it. "Zhang Xiangyang just casually asked and began to answer her question.
He Fangzhi took the cloth note from his brother. "Where did you get this?"
Zhang Xiangyang told her about the day before yesterday when he went fishing and exchanged the cloth note with someone.
He Fangzhi put away the cloth note and said regretfully. "It's a pity that I don't have money on me. I can't buy cloth."
Zhang Xiangyang was a little surprised. He did not expect that she did not have a single cent on her.
Why did the original body treat his wife so badly?
He immediately took out all the money from his pocket and gave it to her. "Take it."
Although he did not know if the money was enough, this was all he had.
He Fangzhi did not recognize the Arabic numerals on the note, but she knew the word "deadline". She pretended to show him the date casually. "The deadline of this cloth note …"
"It ends this month." Even if he went to work now, it would be a month later. He would not be able to make it in time.
He Fangzhi memorized it and lowered his head to think. "I'll go to my cousin and borrow some money to buy cloth first."
"Okay!" That was the only way. They can't wait for the cloth note to expire.
Besides, there was a shortage of supplies these days. He did not know if the supply and demand cooperative had any cloth.
He Fangzhi took the cloth note and money to Yang Sulan.
She did not recognize the cloth note. She did not even recognize the money.
She gave all the things in her hand to Yang Sulan. "Cousin, can you help me see if this money is enough to buy these cloth?"
Yang Sulan did not think much about it. After all, her cousin always stayed at home to take care of the children. She rarely went to the supply and demand cooperative.
It was normal that she did not know the price.
Yang Sulan was very familiar with the price. She counted the cloth note and money. "The total is 3.52 yuan.
This cloth note is 5 feet 5 inches. A good cloth note is 3 cents a foot long. This cloth note is 26 cents a foot long.
The money is enough.
But we have to go to the supply and demand cooperative to see what kind of cloth they have. "
When she was counting the money, He Fangzhi stared at her hand movements. His ears carefully listened to her words. He silently memorized the meaning of each note.
He Fangzhi looked up at her. "When are we going?"
"The day after tomorrow. We will go." Yang Sulan casually said.
