Rebirth 1975: Tore up the call-back order at the beginning

Li's old house!

After coming out of the research institute, Zhou Yang didn't go to the brigade headquarters immediately, but let Chen Beixuan drive to the old house of Li's family first.

But at this time, the Li family's old house was a different scene.

On the ground of the main house is a large bamboo basket with a diameter of more than 1.5 meters. Zhang Guiying and several daughters-in-law are sitting around the bamboo basket, and are struggling to rub the corn cobs with their hands. A layer of corn kernels.

But compared to the corn cobs piled up outside the yard, it is not worth mentioning.

On the other side of the kang, several little dolls were rolling around and playing.

Perhaps because they were worried that some children would fall to the ground, a row of quilts and snakeskin pockets were placed on the edge of the Kang.

"Mom, there are so many sticks, when will we have to rub our hands?"

Hearing what the youngest daughter-in-law said, Zhang Guiying smiled and said: "It's not good to have corn sticks rubbed every day, but the rubbing is all food!"

"Mom, with our family's situation, I reckon it will take at least one winter!" The third daughter-in-law, Wang Lixia, spoke.

"One winter, one winter, the longer the rubbing time, the better. If we continue to rub from now until next winter, then we will send it out!" Zhang Guiying said.

The eldest daughter-in-law, Lin Aizhi, said with a smile, "Mother is frightened by hunger, and she is reluctant to let go when she sees food!"

Zhong Na shook her head and said, "Mother, sister-in-law, I've heard people say that each person in the village has at least [-] or [-] corn sticks this year. How many do you think our family has?"

"This...fourth sibling, you also know that none of us have ever studied, so how can we figure it out!"

"Yes, brother and sister, you have been to school, can you figure out how much money our family has distributed this year?"

Zhong Na immediately said: "I really calculated this. There are 19 people in our family, big and small. We can get more than 5 corn sticks for the food alone, plus our work-point food." As well as brother-in-law and the others, there are at least 4 sticks!"

"Nine... more than 9, are there so many?"

Zhang Guiying was also taken aback, and asked in surprise.

"Only more or less!"

"My God, how long are we going to do with so many sticks!" Wang Lixia said with her mouth wide open.

"I looked at it yesterday, and we only rubbed more than 600 in a whole day. According to this calculation, it will take at least 5 months!" Zhong Na said.

"5...5 months!"

Now the few people in the room were dumbfounded. Thinking about doing nothing for the next 5 months and sitting here rubbing corn sticks every day, everyone couldn't help shivering.

Even Zhang Guiying felt that 5 months was a bit too long!

Thinking of this, she immediately said: "No, we can't do it alone. Call all the men in your family to rub sticks at night. The children can't be idle!"

As soon as the words fell, Zhong Na said: "The eldest brother and the third brother should be fine, but our family is not strong. He is studying hard for the university entrance exam!"

Both Lin Aizhi and Wang Lixia couldn't help being a little envious when they heard the words "take the university entrance examination".

Of the 5 children in Lao Li's family, only the bottom two have been educated.

Needless to say, my sister-in-law has always had good academic performance. If the college entrance examination hadn't been canceled suddenly in those years, she might have been admitted to university with her grades.

Although the fourth son, Li Guoqiang, had mediocre academic performance, he hadn't let go of his books in the past two years. It is said that among so many educated youth members in the village, he was considered among the best, so he might really be able to pass the exam this time.

In comparison, the two old men in their family are almost meaningless...

At this moment, there was a sudden "rumbling" sound outside.

Several people immediately stood up and looked outside.

Through the small glass, they saw a jeep pull up to the gate.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Yang and his guards came in with a black lacquered iron lump each.

When Zhou Yang walked into the house, his mother-in-law Zhang Guiying immediately said, "Come in, it's cold outside!"

After the simple greetings, sister-in-law Lin Aizhi looked at the weird machine in Zhou Yang's hand and asked, "His uncle, what is this? What are you doing with it?"

"This is specially used for peeling corn kernels, which is much faster than rubbing with hands!"

Hearing this, the eyes of the women in the room lit up, and they immediately asked: "Uncle, what about this machine, is it really faster than hand rubbing?"

Zhou Yang didn't explain too much, and immediately demonstrated in front of his mother-in-law and several sister-in-laws.

When Zhang Guiying, Lin Aizhi and others saw that Zhou Yang shook his hand and peeled off a corn stick, they were all stunned.

In less than a minute, more than a dozen cobs turned into bare corncobs. This speed really surprised and delighted several sister-in-laws.

"This... this is too easy to use, too powerful!"

"With this thing, we have to save a lot of time!"

"His uncle is really capable, he can even make this stuff..."

Being praised by several sisters-in-law, Zhou Yang was also a little embarrassed. Thinking that Lao Li was coming soon, he immediately said: "Mother, sisters-in-law, you use these two threshers first, and I will send them to you in a few days." Come over a few!"

"Director Li from the county is still waiting for me at the brigade, so I'm leaving first!"

Zhang Guiying smiled and said, "If you have something to do, do it first!"

Zhou Yang nodded, but he didn't leave immediately. Instead, he walked to the edge of the kang and looked at the two big boys.

There are four children on the kang, besides Dabao and Xiaobao, there are also Li An from the fourth brother's family and the little girl from the third brother's family.

The remaining children in the family were older and were sent to school.

The children Zhou Jiacheng and Zhou Jiaxin have been around for a week and a half, and now they can not only walk, but also babble.

After seeing Zhou Yang, the two little fellows immediately dropped the little cloth tigers in their hands, and walked towards him staggeringly with their hands open, with innocent smiles on their faces.

"Ah, I'm afraid... Bubbles..."

Although Zhou Yang is busy with work, he has to play with his son for a while every night when he goes home. Naturally, he has mastered a certain "alien language" and knows that his son wants to be hugged.

However, Zhou Yang also knew that these two brats would not be able to get off once they hung on his body, so he just touched their little faces through the bag full of food, and then said: "Dad has something else to do, you should stay with grandma and aunt first." Go!"

I knew that if I turned around, the two little guys would cry.

At that moment Zhou Yang went to the big red cabinet next to the wall, found out the milk powder, and prepared half a bottle of milk powder for Dabao, Xiaobao and the little girl of the third brother's house.

As for Li An from the fourth brother's family, that little guy doesn't eat milk powder at all because the breast milk is so good.

After the children got the milk bottles, they all concentrated on drinking grandma, and Zhou Yang took the opportunity to retreat quietly!

When they arrived at the brigade headquarters, Li Changqing hadn't come yet, but Wang Ping and Zhang Genwang were all there.

Immediately, Zhou Yang immediately moved the last thresher to the office of the brigade, and then demonstrated it to everyone.

After Wang Ping, Zhang Genwang and others saw the threshing effect and efficiency of this thing, they all had the same expressions as their mother-in-law, surprised, happy, and excited...

After calming down a bit, Wang Ping immediately asked, "Where did this thing come from? It's so useful!"

"I made it. I've already sent people to mass-produce it. When it's ready, it can be distributed to production teams for use by members!" Zhou Yang said.

"That's great!" Wang Ping said happily.

"It's good, but we can't let people suffer. We still have to give the money that should be given!" Zhou Yang said.

"Is this stuff expensive?"

"Don't worry, it's definitely not too much for the village. I guess it can be controlled within 5 yuan!" Zhou Yang said.

Hearing this, Wang Ping breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's not expensive, how about ordering a thousand in the village first?"

"Okay, but I guess 1 sets is a bit small. After all, our village has planted more than [-] mu of corn this year. I think [-] sets should be about the same!" Zhou Yang said.

"Then two thousand!"

"I'll let them work overtime when I get back!"

Then Zhou Yang asked again: "By the way, it's already November. Has the village's cash income been calculated?"

"Not yet. Accountant Liang said it will take at least half a month!"

"Well, let them hurry up and try to figure out the account before the end of November!"

"In such a hurry?"

"Yes, the educated youths will take their exams in December. Once the results are announced, they will disperse and leave. We have to ask people to get paid before leaving!"

"Okay, I see..."

Just as he was talking, there was a sudden sound of a car engine outside—Li Changqing is here!
