In front of me, it was dark, and only a few moonlights shone through the crack of the door into the broken cave.
Wang Manyin scratched the itchy part of his body, and felt a small pimple as big as a sesame seed. Then he put it to his mouth, spat and squeezed it back and forth.
Feeling motionless, I squeezed my thumb.
Clubbed
In the silent kiln, the sound of fleas being squeezed is particularly loud.
It also made him feel that he was not dreaming.
It's been three days. It seems that I can't go back!
Wang Manyin woke up from a high fever and became a famous "wandering ghost" in "Ordinary World" - Wang Manyin, a rascal with the same surname as himself.
And accepted all the memories of the other party.
It is the autumn of 1988, and Sun Lanhua has been in love for a few days.
Sun Yuhou naturally disagreed when he learned that his eldest daughter had fallen in love with such a scoundrel.
He knew very well that Orchid would be ruined if she really married each other all her life.
However, I can't bear to let my eldest daughter die, because he will not marry, and he also said that he would die on the other side's door. Sun Laohan was really afraid that something would happen to Lanhuaer. With his eldest son persuading him, he could only hold his head and sigh, and reluctantly admitted the marriage.
The two families have agreed to get married this winter.
The Ordinary World is Mr. Lu Yao's masterpiece. Wang Manyin has seen it many times.
He is naturally very familiar with his predecessor. A classic comment on the Internet is: "We all want to live as Sun Shao'an, but eventually we all become Wang Manyin.".
From the perspective of later generations, Wang Manyin has the courage and ideas, but he was born in the wrong age. The power of individuals is too small to mention in the face of the times.
It's just like a small insect, no matter how much it is flailing, it is pressed to death by a finger.
He was full of tragedies and was unwilling. He struggled for countless times, but could not find the direction.
Failing again and again, he finally gave up completely and chose to return to his family.
If he were born 20 years later, Wang Manyin would definitely become a trendsetter of the times.
The days are far from over - it is 68 years now, and it is still ten years before household production quotas are allocated. In this season, farmers have no other way to eat except digging in the soil. If you want to travel far, you also need a letter of introduction and national food stamps.
If he had a choice, Wang Manyin certainly would not like to have a bad time.
But I can't go back.
Life is like that. Since we can't resist, we can only choose to accept it.
It is better to accept the gift of fate than to complain.
Fortunately, there is no way out. When he crossed the world, he had a mysterious space around him.
This is also the biggest reliance.
Wang Manyin put on his torn cotton padded jacket again and grabbed the spade against the bed. His heart moved slightly, and the scene before him had changed.
The space area is not large. At present, there are only about three mu of land. Although it was night, it was not as dark as outside, and was surrounded by gray fog.
When he stepped on the thick loess ground, he felt that the whole person began to warm up. The temperature difference between day and night on the Loess Plateau is large, especially in late autumn, when the outside temperature at night is only three or four degrees.
It is totally different in space, and it still remains more than ten degrees. Wang Manyin was wearing a tattered cotton padded jacket and felt hot and dry.
On the land not far away, a spring with its own space gurgles.
The clear spring water converges into a small pond with a depth of 30 cm and an area of 100 square meters.
A thick layer of moss grows near the pond, and there are large green plants more than ten centimeters high. There are wheat, sweet potato seedlings, corn seedlings, buckwheat, millet, potato and some vegetable seedlings.
There are more than ten kinds in pieces, all of which were planted by Wang Manyin for experiments in recent days. There are only a few of them, about a hundred of them.
Further, there are many weeds.
These are three days of changes. At the beginning, in addition to a spring, there is a dusty loess land in the space.
Of course, Wang Manyin knew that wheat and rape should be planted now according to the agricultural time outside. Crops such as corn, millet and sweet potato cannot survive the winter. If the temperature is too low, they will freeze to death.
However, the space temperature was obviously much higher than that outside, so he wanted to do experiments for the future.
Now it seems that the growth is very good for the time being, and the growth rate is many times faster than the outside world.
If the experiment is successful, the three mu of land alone will be enough to feed oneself and reduce the burden on the family.
After all, eating is the most important thing these days. Wang Manyin didn't want to think much about the others.
As for spring water, the water he uses for cooking these days is all from the space, and he has no feeling after drinking it.
According to Wang Manyin's conjecture, the spring water may contain an active substance similar to the growth liquid, which is only effective for plants.
Over three mu of land, Wang Manyin only took a few minutes to scan it.
After confirming that there is no new change, he picked up the shovel to dig ditches along the pond, and thought about how to maximize the space income.
If you are not sure whether the crops can be planted successfully, it is best to breed in space.
Wang Manyin initially had two plans. First, he used springs and ponds to raise fish.
Although the current pond area is only hundreds of square meters, it is not a problem to raise hundreds of fish.
Where does the key fry come from?
Although Dongla River flows by the Canzi Village, it is a seasonal river and often runs dry. In addition, the sediment content in the river is relatively large, so there is basically no fish to survive.
Therefore, the common people in Guanzi Village, a village called Gelao, have never had the habit of eating fish. Don't mention eating. Many people who have been digging in the earth all their lives have never seen what fish looks like.
This is unimaginable in later generations... Later, someone in Shuangshui Village succeeded in raising fish and sent each family a fish. As a result, everyone did not know how to do it. Many people got stuck in their throats by fish bones.
However, Wang Manyin learned from his memory that the lower reaches of Dongla River flows into Wuding River and finally flows into the Yellow River. Yellow River carp has always been famous, so there must be fish in Wuding River.
The water comes down in the same vein. It is unreasonable that there are no fish in Dongla River.
If you look carefully, you should be able to find some fry.
The other is poultry and livestock.
Raising cattle and sheep was rejected by Wang Manyin at the first time. At present, the space is too small, and the conditions are not available. Most importantly, lambs and calves are raised by production teams and cannot be bought by individuals.
It's not worth while if you make a fool out of it.
As for poultry, Wang Manyin plans to get some local chickens to raise in the market.
If all the land with a space of more than three mu is developed, it will be more than enough to raise a hundred native chickens, and then you can sell eggs.
However, Wang Manyin did not plan to raise too many chickens. After all, there is a rule that farmers can raise up to five chickens, but not more.
If you sell too many eggs one after another, it is easy to attract the attention of people who want to, and then cause unnecessary trouble.
For the sake of safety, even Pigeon City can't do it.
If you can catch pheasants, you can try to raise more. This item is not provided by family now, nor is it a prohibited item. It can be sold openly to the supply and marketing cooperatives.
In addition, there are hares and so on. If you have the opportunity, you can arrange it.
Wang Manyin remembered reading a news on the Internet before crossing, "Three rabbits picked up by a man have bred nearly a hundred in about seven months".
The reproductive capacity of wild rabbits is not as good as that of rabbits. There are three or four babies a year.
In short, difficulties are temporary.
There is room for the future.
The predecessor didn't do his job properly and didn't want to farm at all. In recent years, he has been wandering around doing small business.
Although I didn't earn much money, I also made a fool of myself.
In Wang Manyin's opinion, this kind of life is not desirable. Wang Manyin has not been arrested for years, but he is just lucky. If he continues to struggle, he will eventually be dragged to "reeducation through labor" by the militia team as in the original book.
If it was not for my brother-in-law, Sun Shao'an, who asked Tian Runye for help, the consequences would be more serious.
Therefore, it is better to find a legitimate livelihood.
After all, I am going to get married soon.
However, neither his predecessor nor Wang Manyin intended to make a living in the soil.
It is always a beautiful illusion that hard work can make people rich.
Not to mention this era, there is no farmer who really gets rich by farming.
Sun Shao'an, my brother-in-law, is the most obvious example. He started helping his family with farm work when he was 6 years old. After graduating from primary school at the age of 13, he worked hard with his father in the production team.
This year is just 17 years old, and it is already an old job in Shuangshui Village. He is proficient in rowing, hoeing and ridging. Anyone in the village who sees him will raise his thumb and praise "good sufferers".
As a result, the whole family was busy from the beginning of the year to the end of the year. They were tired and exhausted. Every year, they overspent and suffered from famine, and they owed a lot of money.
I haven't had several good meals and worn a decent dress.
In the end, the poor could not afford to marry his daughter-in-law. Facing Tian Runye's declaration of love, he had to shrink back, but married Xiulian, who did not want bride price money.
Therefore, farming is impossible.
Thinking about things, Wang Manyin was not slow in wielding the spade.
This is to work for your own family. Of course, you should be diligent.
About half an hour later, he had dug a new canal more than 20 meters long, and his stomach began to growl.
For dinner, Wang Manyin ate two corn shacks and drank a bowl of corn porridge. In less than two hours, I had no food in my stomach.
I can't help it. The food is not oily and can't stand hunger.
Especially for heavy work, digestion is faster.
After he took a few slow breaths, he used a shovel to open the canal mouth, and the splashing water immediately flowed into the distance.
After a while, the whole ditch was filled.
At this rate, it will take about one month to develop all the land in the space.
Returning to the cave, Wang Manyin continued to lie on the kang, wrapped in a broken quilt and stayed up late.
The night wind poured down the broken window of the cave, and it became colder and colder as one slept.
In addition, the tattered quilt is too small to cover your head and ignore your feet. Cover your feet, your neck is chilly.
Turn over and let the air flow directly from both ends of the bed.
Cold and hungry, he could not sleep at all. Suddenly, Wang Manyin understood why his predecessor wanted to marry.
If nothing else, the couple hold hands and talk at night. It's good to warm the bed.
Unable to carry it, he had to get up in the dark, reach out and grab a cold corn nest in the inverted earthen basin at the head of the bed.
This product is made of corn flour mixed with white flour, fermented and boiled, commonly known as Erhemian. It is absolutely pure and natural, which conforms to the concept of healthy diet in later generations.
