A Time Travel Effort in the 70s
Chapter 33 Finally there is a bath tub
Shen Jiaren was again assigned the task of weeding today. The team leader said that the autumn harvest was about to begin, and in order to prevent the grass in the field from growing seeds and falling to the ground, thus affecting next year's spring planting and this year's autumn harvest, the weeding task had to be completed within these few days.
So when the team leader was arranging the tasks this morning, he changed the task mode. Previously, in addition to arranging the task fields and work points, there was no time limit. Work points were calculated when you completed the task.
Now that the autumn harvest is approaching, the team leader feels that he can no longer allow people to slack off like this, so he slightly changed the work point system. It is still a task field, but this time the time limit and the amount of completion are set. As long as you complete it, you can get a new work point task. You keep working and keep getting work points. Unlike before, there is no time requirement.
The advantage of this method is that as long as you complete your tasks every day, you will get work points. The more you complete, the more work points you get. This is actually better for the people in the brigade, because the educated youth are not as good at work as the brigade leader's people. The brigade leader's people have earned more work points this way during this period, and they can also get more food at the end of the year.
However, the team leader also told the educated youth that the new educated youth, since they had just arrived, should still follow the task fields and task quantities and give them some time to adapt, but the old educated youth should now start to get used to the single-day task quantities, otherwise there will not be enough food when the grain is distributed at the end of the year.
After listening to this, Shen Jiaren felt that the team leader here was actually quite good. He considered things very comprehensively. The key was that he adopted different methods and systems for people with different working abilities.
The most important thing is that this also solved the different demands for work points among villagers and educated youth.
When Shen Jiaren was walking towards her mission field, she realized why people were talking about her so much today. Even Aunt Zhou, who had argued with her, was flattering her.
It turned out that it was all about the rescue incident yesterday. Someone spread the news that Shen Jiaren and Shen Zhiqing saved someone, and the team leader would probably give them a reward in order to commend them. The specific reward was not clear, but it would be a huge reward.
Many people thought that the autumn harvest was coming soon, and food would be distributed after the harvest. If the reward could be determined before the harvest, then they would be able to eat more when sharing meals during the harvest. After all, Shen Zhiqing looked like he couldn't eat too much. But when sharing meals, the rations for each meal would always be fixed.
So when many people heard the news, they wanted to build a relationship with this educated youth Shen Jiaren and leave a good impression on her.
The others haven't started looking for Shen Jiaren yet because they are not familiar with her, have never dealt with her, and have no reason to communicate. As for Aunt Zhou, it was because she felt that she had spoken to Shen Jiaren a few days ago, and they were familiar with each other and could chat. She didn't expect to be retorted by Zhang Aihua, so she didn't have the chance to open her mouth.
After Shen Jiaren learned about this situation, she couldn't help but find it funny. If you are thin, you eat less. I wonder who gave her this illusion?
The most important thing is, why do you think you are a brainless person? Can you believe what others say?
The most crucial thing is Aunt Zhou. The two of them have fought once before, but she still has some grievances against me. It is true that food is what moves people's hearts.
After Shen Jiaren understood the anomaly today, she did not stay on the road any longer, but went directly to her own task field and started earning her own task points for today.
He didn't say that he could collect all the work points, but just said that he should get used to the hardship of working as soon as possible, otherwise it would be a great suffering for him to adapt when the autumn harvest came.
Now I can make my own arrangements according to my physical strength, increase my workload appropriately every day without exceeding my physical limits, and also exercise myself.
After work in the afternoon, Shen Jiaren felt that human limits can really be broken, especially the importance of mental strength and will. If it were the day before yesterday, she would definitely feel that there was something wrong with her mind. After all, she had just decided not to live on work points, and to treat the work point tasks as much as possible, she would slack off as much as possible, and be lazy as much as possible.
As a result, today we have changed our policies and guidelines, and started to do our work tasks honestly, conscientiously and hard.
After Shen Jiaren returned to her yard, she lit the coal stove and heated a pot of water on it, ready to drink when Liu Hui brought something over. She fetched some hot water from the manor, washed herself in the yard, and sat in the yard waiting for Liu Hui to bring something over.
Shen Jiaren sat on the stool, watching the clouds in the sky slowly change from blue and white to orange-red with a little bit of gold, and then slowly turn into sunset red illuminating the entire sky.
Shen Jiaren looked at the setting sun and suddenly felt hungry. She wanted to eat a fried egg and some vegetable noodles.
Shen Jiaren stood up from the stool and did what she said.
Shen Jiaren went into the outer room, took the kettle off the coal stove, and used it as a casserole.
He also took out lard, eggs, vegetables, some dried shrimps, and some kelp from the kitchen of the manor.
Shen Jiaren began to prepare dinner.
First, change the position of the coal balls in the coal stove, increase the fire, and then use a bowl to soak the kelp.
While waiting for the kelp to soak, Shen Jiaren picked up the lard can and used chopsticks to scoop out some lard into the casserole, then began to wait for the lard to melt and heat up.
After the lard in the casserole had no white shape, Shen Jiaren picked up two eggs and beat them in the casserole, preparing to start frying the eggs. After the eggs were formed, Shen Jiaren flipped the eggs with chopsticks. As the fried eggs became more and more shaped and looked more and more like the sunset she had just seen, Shen Jiaren felt even more greedy.
After the eggs were fried into shape, Shen Jiaren took the kettle and added hot water. Since there was only one person there, Shen Jiaren didn't add much water, just enough to fill half of the casserole.
After the water boiled again, Shen Jiaren put the noodles and vegetables into the casserole.
After waiting for a while until the noodles were almost cooked, Shen Jiaren added some vinegar and light soy sauce. Then she ignored the rice in the casserole and went to look for the lunch box.
When Shen Jiaren came back with the lunch box, the noodles in the casserole were already cooked. Shen Jiaren took the casserole noodles to the yard and prepared to eat while looking at the stars.
After putting the kettle back on the coal stove to reheat it, Shen Jiaren went out to the yard and prepared to eat noodles.
Actually, to be honest, Shen Jiaren herself is not very good at cooking. In the past, she would order takeout or eat out, or boil everything in water and add a universal seasoning packet, or have hot pot. Anyway, anything that was boiled was fine, and the rest of the frying, stir-frying, and deep-frying always lacked that flavor.
Therefore, Shen Jiaren has a lot of fast food and seasoning packets in the place where she lives. Who would have thought that the house in her hometown also moved with her, so the fast food and seasoning packets in the manor warehouse can well meet her current cooking needs, and she doesn't worry about not being able to cook even if she gets the food.
Shen Jiaren held a stool, looking at the starry sky while eating her fried eggs and boiled noodles. She suddenly felt that it was not bad that she did not slack off today. At least her appetite was very good tonight, and she did not feel that the food she had eaten was not satisfactory at all.
When Shen Jiaren was happily finishing up her meal, she heard the sound of a tractor "thump, thump, thump". Shen Jiaren was still wondering if Liu Hui had delivered something when she suddenly heard someone knocking on the door. Shen Jiaren put down her bowl and walked towards the door.
As soon as I reached the gate, I heard someone at the gate say.
"Shen Zhiqing, please open the door. I'm Liu Hui. I brought the stuff here. Please open the door and I'll carry it in for you."
After hearing the voice outside the door, Shen Jiaren replied, "Comrade Liu, what did you take today?"
"I took a foot soaking bucket, a bath tub, a washbasin, and some miscellaneous wooden items." When Liu Hui heard Shen Jiaren ask this question, he felt like laughing. He didn't realize that the girl was quite smart. It was okay. She wouldn't be fooled, so he answered with a smile.
When Shen Jiaren heard this, she realized that the content was almost the same as what Liu Hui said yesterday, so she opened the gate of the yard.
When I opened the door, I saw that it was Liu Hui. Although I overreacted, I live alone now after all, so it is better to be careful.
Shen Jiaren looked towards Liu Hui and found that Liu Hui had turned the tractor over, with the cargo box at the back of the tractor facing the front door of her house, probably to facilitate loading and unloading.
As soon as Liu Hui saw Shen Jiaren coming out, he said, "Shen Zhiqing, take a look at the things on the truck. Which ones should be put where and which ones should be put where." As Liu Hui spoke, he stood aside so that Shen Jiaren could see clearly what was on the tractor bucket.
Shen Jiaren looked over and saw that the tractor's bucket was filled with various things of varying sizes. It seemed that there were also some things in the bath tub. She seemed to not recognize some of the things.
After looking at the things in the tractor's bed, Shen Jiaren said, "Comrade Liu, please put everything like the bathtub and similar things in my west wing. Look, it's the one over there." Shen Jiaren pointed to Liu Hui while speaking.
"Then put everything you need in the kitchen in the kitchen. You should know the kitchen, which is the room where you unloaded and loaded the coal last time."
"As for the other things, put them in the east wing. I will put them in order when the time comes. After I identify the things, I will put them in order myself."
"Okay, I'll play it for you first, but during the process, if you don't recognize this thing and don't know what it is used for, just ask me, I will tell you what it is called and teach you how to use it." Liu Hui replied.
After hearing Liu Hui's answer, Shen Jiaren suddenly felt that there are still many good people in the world. Although she had prepared herself not to recognize this thing, she put it in the warehouse and put it back where it should go when she knew how to use it.
Now that Liu Hui has brought up this matter, Shen Jiaren feels that she can ask more questions later. After all, the things are different. Otherwise, after Liu Hui leaves, she won’t know how to do it, and it would be a joke if she messes around.
Before Shen Jiaren could answer Liu Hui, Liu Hui had already started moving things. Seeing this, Shen Jiaren was ready to go over to help. Liu Hui said, "Shen Zhiqing, don't move. Follow me and tell me where to put the things in the room. It's best to place the things according to your usage habits. Otherwise, after I leave, you will feel uncomfortable using them and you will have to move them by yourself, and you may not be able to move them."
When Shen Jiaren heard this, she felt that what he said seemed to make sense, but also seemed a little wrong. You said that big objects cannot be moved, but there are only two big objects here, one looks like a bathtub, and the other looks like a washstand. This thing should look and actually be the same thing.
Since there are only these two large items, why did he say that I might move them when I use them later because I am not used to them? Besides the bathtub, which seems a bit difficult, it should be no problem to move the washstand by myself, right? It should be no problem to move the rest of the small items by myself, right? Why did Comrade Liu say that he might not be able to move them?
Liu Hui stood there, watching Shen Jiaren's facial expressions change, especially her eyebrows, which wrinkled and relaxed, wrinkled and relaxed, like a dancing insect. He suddenly felt a little happy and wanted to laugh, and said to Shen Jiaren,
"Shen Zhiqing, don't think about it. If you want to help move, I'll tell you what to move, and you can help carry it. Can we move together like this?"
When Shen Jiaren heard what Liu Hui said, she didn't think too much about it and quickly replied, "Yes, yes, yes, yes."
"We'll put your things in the west wing first, because the bathtub is big and takes up space. Let's take the bathtub back first, and then we'll move the other things.
Now I'm moving the tub. Do you see the lid over there with a semicircular notch? Take that."
"Oh oh oh" Although Shen Jiaren felt that there was something wrong with Liu Hui's way of speaking and tone, she didn't think about anything else. After all, it was already dark, and it would be bad to dawdle too late.
Furthermore, judging from the time when I was having dinner at his house yesterday, he had not returned home for dinner at this time yesterday. Plus, he said yesterday that he would deliver the things later, so he definitely would not have gone home first and come here later. After all, that would allow the villagers to see the things in the car. He must have waited somewhere else until dark before coming to deliver the things.
So Liu Hui must have not eaten his meal. If he had finished moving his things earlier, he could have gone back to eat earlier.
After Shen Jiaren finished thinking, she took the things Liu Hui instructed her to take and followed Liu Hui into the yard.
After entering the yard, Liu Hui carried the bath tub and walked towards the west room.
After Liu Hui moved the bath tub to the west room, he asked Shen Jiaren, "Where in the room are you going to put the bath tub?
After all, this bathtub also involves the problem of pouring water later. You should think it through. Otherwise, I will help you check if there is a drain hole in this house?"
After hearing what Liu Hui said, Shen Jiaren replied happily, "Okay, okay. First, check if there is a drainage hole in the house for drainage. I can do it myself later."
Upon hearing this, Liu Hui began to walk around the room.
