Affection for Sidaogou during the Famine

There was nothing serious about Cui Chezi's legs, just a big black circle. It was because he was wearing tights. If it was summer, a layer of skin would have been peeled off.

The Cui couple were not so lucky. They were severely scolded by Director Zhang. "Why don't you send your child to a nursery now that he's grown up? You let him run wild outside even though he's so naughty?"

The couple lowered their heads and listened to the lecture like quails, not daring to refute a word.

But I was feeling annoyed in my heart. Who doesn't want to go to daycare? But it costs money to send children to daycare.

He has three children. If he sends the two younger ones, it will be a heavy burden, okay?

In the evening, Niu Xiaoyun came to pick up her homework, but she and Cui had a gossip. When they talked about Cui's miserable situation of having his car stuck in a tree, they always felt it was particularly funny.

As they were chatting and laughing, Xiao Sanzi also came and brought them an unexpected news.

"Do you know? Cui Chezi was tricked by Xue Qiqi. They were playing together, and it was Xue Qiqi who instigated him to climb a tree and rob a bird's nest.

In the end, Cui's car got stuck in a tree and couldn't get out, so Xue Shiqi ran back home and hid. "

Han Zhaozhao hadn't seen Xue Shiqi for a long time, and couldn't help wondering, "Xue Shiqi is such a dishonest guy, why is he hiding? It won't bother him if I help find him.

With a guy like him, who would want to play with him in the future? "

Niu Xiaoyun chewed a soft date and curled her lips, "He wasn't popular to begin with, and Cui Chezi was foolish enough to be fooled by him.

By the way, ever since he injured his eyes, Xue Shiqi has become more and more evil. Although he was a bit bad before, he would still say hello to people when he met them. Now, if you run into him, he won’t even bother to talk to you.

Their families are the same, the way they look at people makes me feel cold all over. "

Xiao Sanzi also said: "My father said that there is something wrong with their family. They can't stand seeing others do well. Now that Xue Shiqi has injured his eye, it seems that everyone owes them something, and they can't stand anyone.

Stay away from his family from now on. My dad said that this family is not good people."

The matter was forgotten and no one took it to heart.

The weather is getting colder and colder. Now the authorities allow every family to make a fire, heat a kang, and boil some hot water at home.

Everyone then realized that they hadn’t prepared any firewood!

This year's coal was distributed to various units as soon as it was transported into Beijing, and all of it was put into small blast furnaces for steelmaking.

Even the larger trees were cut down and burned to make steel. At first, old men and women and children could go to the park to pick up some hay and dry branches.

But within a few days, so many people in the capital were dumbfounded. Even after cutting down all the green trees in the park, there were still not enough for a few people to burn for firewood.

So, on weekends, the children got back to work and went up the mountain to collect firewood!

The adults still insist on working to make steel, but by now, people have already understood that making steel? What the hell!

The boasts made by various units have all fallen to the ground and shattered into pieces! What about hundreds of tons, thousands of tons? Isn't that just bullshit?

It was the twelfth lunar month, and some units had smelted thousands of kilograms of black iron lumps, while some units had only smelted a few hundred kilograms of molten iron. What's more, some units had only smelted the smashed ironware into scrap iron slag of slightly deformed shape.

The earthen blast furnaces are still burning, but we are in a difficult situation.

All units are waiting for instructions from their superiors on how this farce will end.

People have lost motivation to work. They all know that they are just avoiding tolerance. The fire in the blast furnace is burning slowly and quickly. It will burn when the leader asks about it. If no one asks, the furnace will be shut down directly.

Han Zhaozhao took the final exam and achieved an average score of 96, and also received a certificate.

The holiday finally came, and the children rushed out of school and ran home like wild horses without their reins.

The alley suddenly became lively with people knocking against each other, smashing paper treasures, running through the alley to play hide-and-seek, and fighting with wooden swords and knives. These were all games that the boys loved to play.

The girls also came out to join in the fun, some skipping rope, some playing shuttlecock, and some throwing sandbags. The older children brought the younger ones and had a great time too.

The older children started to go up the mountain to collect firewood, and Han Zhaozhao followed them. He pushed the cart every day and was as efficient as the older children.

This winter, the friends also found a new method. After collecting firewood on the mountain, they tied it into a tight bundle and rolled it horizontally down the mountain, with a burst of dust and dirt, and the firewood rolled down the mountain.

When encountering a platform, it will pause, but it doesn't matter. Leave someone to pick it up, carry it for a few steps, and continue throwing it down the steep slope to let the firewood roll.

Anyway, there is no need to worry about firewood falling, it is all fresh, has no leaves but is very flexible.

It’s no big deal if the tips of the branches are broken.

The friends worked together with a clear division of labor. Niu Xiaomin and his third son were responsible for waiting at the foot of the mountain to collect firewood and then filling a cart and pushing it home.

Niu Xiaoyun coordinated in the middle. She moved the firewood that was stuck and couldn't roll away and continued to throw it down the mountain.

Niu Xiaolian and Han Zhaozhao were chopping wood in the mountains. Niu Xiaolian used a machete and Han Zhaozhao used a saw. The two of them worked together and worked very quickly.

In one day, the five children carried home more than ten bundles of firewood, all of which were hard firewood that could burn long lastingly.

Before the heavy snow came, they worked for seven consecutive days and not only prepared a pile of firewood for the three families, but also got enough firewood for Grandpa Guan to last for a month.

But it was not enough. The food in the cafeteria was getting worse and worse. There were only a few grains of rice in the porridge, and the rest was water.

The steamed bread became smaller and smaller, only the size of a baby's fist. No one was full, and corruption began to appear in the canteen.

Those who have acquaintances in the canteen kitchen have their bowls filled with more than half a bowl of rice, while those who don’t have any can only drink rice soup.

More and more people go to the neighborhood committee to raise issues, "Leader, is there corruption in the cafeteria?

Didn't the newspaper say that this year is a bumper year, with one acre of land producing 3,000 to 4,000 kilograms of grain? How come people are still hungry in the twelfth lunar month? Where is the grain? Where has it gone? "

"Comrades, rest assured, we have received notice from above that we will hold a celebration meeting for the great victory in steelmaking in the next few days.

The steel-making campaign is over, and each unit will have time to spare, and food will be allocated soon.

Don't worry, we will apply to our superiors immediately and food will be available in a few days.

As for the problems in the canteen kitchen, we will rectify them immediately and give everyone an explanation. Go back and do what you need to do! "

After the people left, Director Zhang dropped the teacup with a clang, feeling very worried.

"Everyone comes to ask me, but who should I ask? The grain was allocated from above, but it has not been distributed to the lower levels. What should we do?"

After the celebration meeting, the neighborhood committee called on everyone to participate in voluntary labor. It was said that ten construction projects would be built to welcome the tenth anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China.

Han Zhaozhao had a blank expression on his face. Yes, it’s a National Day project!

The Great Hall of the People, the National History Museum, the Revolutionary Military Museum, the National Culture Palace, the National Hotel, the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse, the Overseas Chinese Building, the Beijing Railway Station, the National Agricultural Exhibition Hall and the Beijing Workers' Stadium.

It is said that the ten iconic buildings were all completed and put into use in ten months, and the quality is excellent!

The infrastructure craze has started since 1958!

Next, everyone’s work focus shifted to the major construction sites.

The children were not to be outdone. Han Zhaozhao's wheelbarrow was also requisitioned. Every day, the neighborhood committee arranged for people to push it to the construction site, pushing stones, bricks, and earth...

The cart can't talk, otherwise it would definitely complain to its owner, "It's so tiring!"
