The Pretty Military Wife

It only took Li Jie a few days to go from knowing nothing to basically keeping up with the pace.

When she arrived at the end of the field, she asked excitedly:

"How to do it?"

"It's simple today. We'll cut the vines inside short like this, and then clear all the vines that are wrapped around them. Dig out the roots underneath, and be careful when digging so as not to damage the new season's seedlings."

Liang Xinyue gave a demonstration for everyone to see.

Min Honglian suggested while taking notes:

"Xinyue, can we also follow the old method and complete one step by one person? It will be faster this way."

Liang Xinyue nodded and said:

"Yes, we are divided into three groups today. The first group is Sister Huang, Sister Li, and Wenqing. You two just hold the scissors and cut every vine. The second group is Sister Yang, Sister Fu, and Sister Tian. The four of us are responsible for clearing out the dead vines. Just do it this way. Take them all out and clean them up. Don't even leave any dead leaves. Put them all in the aisle."

"Then the third group will be led by Xiao Shun, and Min Honglian will be there to finish recording. The two of you will complete one group, and that is to drive all the vines outside. We will cut them up and put them in the manure pit later."

"Next, the comrades in the first group will definitely finish first. Once they have finished, they will start over again. Just do this. Use the prepared green grass leaves. One of them can be used to tie a new vine to the rack. Tie two nests to each rack. Sometimes there are two vines in one nest. You must remember this."

"After the second group of us finishes, they will also join in tying the vines. So the comrades in the first group have to work harder. After finishing the first step, they have to do the second step."

Li Jie immediately said:

"This arrangement is very reasonable. We can all work together and arrange the processes one by one in an orderly manner. Responsibilities are assigned to individuals, which is very good. Xinyue has the potential to be a leader."

Liang Xinyue laughed and said:

"Sister Li, I just like to take the lead more than the other sisters. Besides, it's all because of the face you give me. I think that when doing everything, there must be someone to make decisions. When someone takes the lead, everyone will be more motivated. Things will be better done if there is a plan."

Sister Yang smiled and said:

"We are all willing to listen to Xinyue's arrangements, mainly because she arranges things without favoritism. Everyone does what they are good at, and we work together to get things done. And, most importantly, Xinyue leads us to a better and better life."

Sister Li nodded. To be honest, it was only when I really came here that I realized that the life in this military family compound was not much worse than that of the people in Beijing, except that there were fewer supplies here.

It’s not that they don’t want to buy, or that they can’t afford it, but that these things are really not available in this remote place away from the county town.

Li Jie waved the scissors in her hand and said:

"Wenqing, Xiaohuang, shall we start with one ridge each?"

"it is good!"

Every time Zou Wenqing came to the fields to work, Liang Xinyue would deliberately arrange some light work for her to do.

She knows this too, so she does it very seriously every time.

Zou Wenqing ran to the second ridge. There were two ridges in each shed.

It was very easy to just cut a vine, and in a short while Sister Li and Zou Wenqing had finished cutting a ridge.

By the time they finished the work in this shed and moved on to the next one, Liang Xinyue and her team had only cleared less than one-third of the dead vines.

Whatever they cleared out was cleared out by Xiao Shun and his wife.

The three groups took turns to do it, and the whole morning passed. They had not yet started the third step, but had just finished the first step.

At noon, they went back to cook. Political Commissar Xu bought food for Li Jie to eat. Liang Xinyue came back to feed the baby. After lunch, she fed the baby again. Only then did the three of them take a nap.

In the afternoon, Sister Li and the other two began to tie the rattan. Although this was a simple task, it was still difficult because they had to bend over and could not straighten up.

Fortunately, Liang Xinyue was thoughtful and asked Dongdong, who came to take a look, to go back and find three small stools and gave one to each of them.

With the small stools, they can move around while sitting and tying rattan.

It took two days to finish all the work, and now I just have to wait for the second batch of seeds to bear fruit.

However, the result will come after the New Year.

After cleaning up the green beans, Yang Jie and Fu Chunhua's families were ready to set off.

Liang Xinyue's bacon was also served. On the first day of eating bacon, Liang Xinyue asked Aunt Li to cook more, cut it into pieces, and sent a bowl to each family so that everyone could taste it.

It’s time to prepare things for the New Year.

Children look forward to the New Year because they want new clothes.

Liang Xinyue had prepared for this early, even though her own children were still young, she had planned everything. All three children had new clothes, and she was also going to take her three children and Zhou Guoliang to a photo studio in the county town, planning to take a New Year photo every year from now on.

Liang Xinyue also prepared new clothes for Aunt Li. They were new cotton-padded clothes, which made Aunt Li cry for a long time:

"Since I grew up and got married, I haven't worn new clothes. Thank you, Xinyue."

Liang Xinyue smiled and took out two more sweaters and said:

"I didn't do much this winter, so I knitted a sweater for you and Yue'e. Can you try it on and see if you can wear it?"

"This... this is too expensive. You have to knit it stitch by stitch. Xinyue, I don't know what to say."

Liang Xinyue smiled and said:

"You cook for us and take care of the children every day. Isn't that harder than me? Aunt Li, I remember it all. If you hadn't come to help us, I really don't know what to do."

I thought there wouldn't be heavy snow this winter, but unexpectedly it snowed heavily on the day before the Chinese New Year.

Although those who wanted to go out in the family compound had gone out, and those who should come back had come back, it was impossible for the regiment to allow the heavy snow to block the road.

They may go out for training at any time, or they may have new missions.

There was no twelfth lunar month this year, and on the twelfth lunar month of 12th lunar month, the road was blocked by snow. As soon as the snow stopped, Zhou Guoliang led three squads of soldiers. Some of them held shovels, some held hoes, and some held things like rakes.

Liang Xinyue stood at the gate of the family compound and took a look, then came back and encouraged the rest of the people to come out. Everyone cooked some food and prepared to deliver it to the people who went to dig snow.

After they were done, Xiao Shun went to the regiment to get some bowls. Xiao Shun drove the car again. Liang Xinyue, Zou Wenqing and Sister Li all got in the car. They were going to cheer up the soldiers. It was New Year's Day, so they could only have a New Year's dinner with the soldiers in the snow-clearing area.
