The Pretty Military Wife
Chapter 147 Meeting
The mood of the people during the harvest is exciting. From time to time, they can be seen sighing:
"Oh, that's a lot."
"Oh my god, this apron won't fit here."
"Yaya, bring me a basket quickly, I have too many here."
They are used to wearing an apron when they work. This time, they just stood in one place and picked enough beans to fill their aprons.
Soon, there was another pile of beans on the ground, all of which were well-grown green beans.
Dongdong brought not only Lao Liu, but also Political Commissar Xu, Xiao Shun, Zhou Guoliang, and Xiao Wei.
Xiao Wei carried a basket with a scale in it.
They also didn't expect to see so many green beans.
Liang Xinyue stood out and saw the scale, and said with a smile:
"No need to weigh it. We said we'll give it to you. It's the first dish grown in our valley. Political Commissar Xu, look, it's not just this one, there's a small plot over there, also planted with green beans. If we pick them today, we can pick more in a few days."
Old Liu lowered his head and picked up the green beans, saying with satisfaction:
“To be honest, I haven’t seen such fresh and comforting dishes in a long time.”
In rural areas, February and March of the lunar calendar are called the barren months in most places, because this is the time when seeds are planted, and there is nothing to eat, whether it is vegetables or grains.
Usually at this time, the family would be out of food. Although wheat would be available in some places at the end of March, after the wheat was harvested, they had to wait for distribution by the team before they could eat it.
Therefore, the troops like them could not buy fresh vegetables at this time. They had been eating cabbage and potatoes for several months.
Next is to eat some pickles.
Now when I see such beautifully grown fresh vegetables, I really can’t wait to take a bite.
Lao Liu narrowed his eyes in a smile, and Lao Xu was also very happy:
"We must weigh it. We must weigh it. This is the result of your hard work. We cannot take even a single needle or thread from the people."
Zhou Guoliang didn't say anything, he went straight into the vegetable garden and helped pick the vegetables.
The one basket Xiao Wei brought was not enough, so he went back and got another one.
In the end, they carried six large baskets and took one more basket away, a total of seven baskets of green beans.
A total of more than 470 kilograms of green beans was definitely not enough for the thousands of people.
But it is certainly a fresh dish.
The remaining food can be shared among the families.
Liang Xinyue went to the other side to check on the cowpeas she had planted. They had also started to bear fruit and were growing very well.
Liang Xinyue smiled and said:
"After eating the second batch of green beans, you can start planting them. This way, you can eat green beans after eating the cowpeas."
The eggplant fields have also begun to bear fruit, but it seems a little uneven, some have already borne fruit, while others are still blooming.
The peppers have also grown, but not in large quantities yet.
It seems that the dishes are gradually being served.
After everyone was busy for the whole afternoon, Liang Xinyue said:
"Tonight, all the sisters-in-law, come to my place for a meeting. We need to carefully calculate our supply account."
That night, a plate of fresh vegetable, green beans, was served on each family's table.
Liang Xinyue also seriously reminded everyone that it must be cooked thoroughly before eating. This thing cannot be eaten half-cooked. Don't cook it half-cooked just because you like to eat it crispy. Eating it will cause poisoning.
Afraid that Xiao Shun might not cook it well, Liang Xinyue prepared it and asked Yaya and the waiter to come over to eat.
Xiao Shun went to the group to eat.
After dinner, the children played together, and all the families gathered at Liang Xinyue's place. Liang Xinyue handed a notebook to Zou Wenqing and asked her to take notes of the meeting.
"Sisters, the planting plan for this valley is now officially declared to be ours to plant."
"After the chief inspected the area, he decided to continue to contract the crops to us according to the five-year contract that I signed with Political Commissar Xu. In the future, we will be given priority in the contract."
"If we want to work together, we still have to have a charter. So, the first thing we have to do tonight is to implement everyone's division of labor and management."
"First of all, I want to talk about my own division of labor. I proposed planting in this valley and I also contracted it, so I am responsible for what to plant and how to plant. I can listen to your opinions, but when there is a problem, I have the final say. Do you agree?"
Liang Xinyue knew that to manage a group, there must first be someone in charge.
This person must have absolute power and gain everyone's support in order to make the entire group work together.
Firstly, she is the contractor here and she has to be responsible for her contract. Secondly, her future work will require her to provide the planting data here, so she must have the decision-making power to do this job well.
Everyone agreed with her proposal.
"That's fine with me. I'll listen to you."
The first person to express her opinion was definitely Fu Chunhua.
"I have no objection, and I will listen to you."
"Me too."
"We all listen to you. We'll do whatever you say."
Apart from anything else, the green beans in this meal are so delicious.
Everyone expressed their opinion.
Liang Xinyue said unceremoniously:
"I'll also give you a hint. After Captain Xiao has completed the formalities, he will come to work here. The experts who came that day will ask us to provide data for the planting experiments here. Captain Xiao and I will be responsible for this matter."
"But I promise everyone that the premise is that we will not miss out on planting and our original intention of providing vegetables and food to the regiment. Of course, there is also food for every family in our family compound."
"The second thing is that everyone knows that Wenqing is a cultured person. From now on, if we write something or keep accounts here, we will leave it to Wenqing. And she is also responsible for the work of our primary school, so we don't require her to participate in the planting activities. If she has time to come and help, we welcome her. If she doesn't come, we won't force her. It is more important for her to help us take care of and teach the children. Is everyone okay with this?"
"No no."
Everyone said in unison. Fu Chunhua smiled and said:
"These past two days, Dongdong has been calling us Teacher Zou all the time when he comes back. He is very happy."
Everyone has children, and they all hope that Zou Wenqing can stay here. Otherwise, it would be troublesome to send them to study far away.
"The third thing is the distribution of money. For example, the green beans we gave to the regiment today, Political Commissar Xu said that we should pay for them. Because I contracted this land and provided the seeds, I decided to pay you according to your salary in the future."
