V1.Chapter 59

Xia Xiaolan didn't know that she had escaped another disturbance of the Xia family.

Xia Dajun really came to ask his mother and daughter for food. He certainly couldn't get any benefit. Of course, it's always good to have less trouble. Xia Xiaolan's time is so precious that it can't be wasted on irrelevant people.

Thanks to the fact that the Xia family has their own abacus in mind and can't use it in one place, they can't often harass Xia Xiaolan's life.

The notice of paying public grain was sent to each household. Xia Xiaolan and her Aunt Li Fengmei were going to the grain station in the countryside to pay public grain. This is a very novel experience for Xia Xiaolan. She has never had an experience in her previous life.

Rice should be dried the most. There should be no sand, stone or other impurities. Each grain is full and golden. Only when there is no dried grain can it be regarded as qualified public grain.

Several times a year, we have to pay public grain. When rice is harvested, we have to pay rice, as well as the previous wheat and rapeseed. Part of the harvest in the field is handed over to the state free of charge to replace the agricultural tax. Public grain may not be able to completely replace the tax, and the insufficient part must be paid. Before, the production team paid public grain and agricultural tax uniformly. After the production was contracted to each household, each household paid its own grain and tax.

"I don't pay taxes now. I'll collect the retention money instead."

Liu Fen took the eel, and Xia Xiaolan loaded the millet with her aunt. These rice are dried and screened, not to mention shriveled millet, not even a small residue.

Li Fengmei said she would pay the "retention money" this year. Xia Xiaolan was ignorant.

She didn't understand many fields in the countryside in the 1980s. She doesn't know how to farm, and she doesn't know how hard it was in the countryside in the 1980s. It's not only hard work, but the seemingly small amount of public grain is a great pressure on farmers... The technology of hybrid rice broke through in the 1970s. The demonstration planting in southern Henan Province has not been popularized in a large area since 76.

Anyway, in Anqing County, farmers grow conventional rice.

Hybrid rice can yield thousands of kilograms per mu, and the best yield of conventional rice is about seven or eight hundred kilograms per mu.

Rice hulls and peels, and less than 70 kg of rice comes out of 100 kg. A family of three has about five mu of land, not all of which can grow rice, bad slope land and poor land without grain - public grain is handed over free of charge, and surplus grain will be sold to the state at a low price. How can farmers have money if they don't sell grain? The money for selling grain can't be kept, including pesticides, seeds, chemical fertilizers, and the "retention money" said by Li Fengmei.

The full name of the retention money is "overall retention money". Three withdrawals and five overall plans are two parts of money.

Five overall plans are the five items of township overall plans: education surcharge, family planning fee, militia training fee, civil affairs preferential care fee and private transportation fee. Three items are reserved by the village: Provident Fund, public welfare fund and management fee. The accumulation fund is not the housing accumulation fund of later generations, but is used for farmland and water conservancy construction, plant afforestation and the purchase of fixed production materials; The public welfare fund is to support the five guarantees households, subsidize the extremely poor households, cooperative medical care and other welfare undertakings; The management expenses are the remuneration and management expenses of village cadres.

Li Fengmei certainly didn't know this. When the villagers asked her to pay any money, everyone came as required.

Xia Xiaolan was even more unclear. She was worried about hunger in the first two days after her rebirth. Later, she did a good business. Xia Xiaolan didn't feel the real rural poverty life.

The carefully selected Huang cancan's rice is packed in several bags. Xia Xiaolan refuses to review at home. Li Fengmei and Liu Fen don't want her to go out these days. Xia Xiaolan is a restless person and has to go to the countryside with her aunt to pay public food.

Li Fengmei was also afraid that she would suffocate, so she agreed to go with Xia Xiaolan.

It's not convenient to have a bicycle. A bicycle with 28 bars can carry hundreds of kilograms of grain. If you don't have a bicycle, you have to use a scooter to pull it to the grain station. On the way, he met the grain delivery team of Chen Wangda's family. Chen Qing asked Xia Xiaolan and Li Fengmei:

"Let's go together. There's a companion on the way."

Li Fengmei was very happy and called her sister-in-law.

Xia Xiaolan's name is Bo Niang. She likes the people in Qijing village. Of course, these people talk about gossip behind their backs, but they are not the kind who want to kill people with malice. They are also the villages below anqing county. The atmosphere of Qijing village is very different from Dahe village... Xia Xiaolan thinks it has something to do with Chen Wangda being the head of Qijing village.

Mrs. Chen seemed to care about Xia Xiaolan and asked her about her study all the way.

Xia Xiaolan scored full marks on both tests of English. This subject is Chen Qing's weak subject. Chen Wangda's help to their mother and daughter, Xia Xiaolan kept in mind and took the initiative to help Chen Qing make up lessons:

"If you don't worry, I'll make up for Chen Qingge's English during his holiday."

Now the college entrance examination English is not difficult. Even if future generations master more than 3000 vocabulary in the college entrance examination, it is almost the same. But future generations of candidates accumulated all the way from primary school, junior middle school and senior high school. Before Xia Xiaolan was reborn, there were all kinds of apps that memorized words in fragmented time. What is the amount of 3000 words?

It's too difficult for candidates in 83 or in remote areas.

No matter how poor the Chinese score is, you can always get some scores in the face of a familiar mother tongue. English has no foundation. It is not included in the college entrance examination scores a few years before the resumption of the college entrance examination. It is very sudden to the candidates, and the teachers do not know how to teach systematically.

Rote memorization, there is no efficient memory method.

Vowels and consonants?

If you can't read words, you can't distinguish vowels and consonants.

English is not only a stumbling block on Chen Qing's college entrance examination, but also for other candidates... Just want to find a teacher to open a small stove, but also find a teacher! Even if Chen Wangda knew people in the county, he couldn't find such a way. He was only the village head, not the county head.

No one knows how Xia Xiaolan learned English, but she got full marks twice, that is, she learned well.

Chen Qingma was full of joy and didn't want to let Xia Xiaolan go. Chen Qing's grades are not bad. If you can improve your English scores, the college entrance examination will be more stable next year——

"Xiaolan, you'll be behind aunt Bo when you hand over the grain later."

Xia Xiaolan couldn't understand her aunt's expression. Li Fengmei was happy. She just lined up. Is it so important?

When the public food was paid, Xia Xiaolan realized the benefits of being in Chen Wangda's house.

There was a long line outside the grain station, and the Chen family didn't jump in the line to pay grain, so they waited for a chat on the road outside the grain station. There was a lot of noise in the grain station, and the leaders of the village took the village heads to check the grain one by one.

According to Xia Xiaolan's thinking, isn't it just weighing according to the list, leaving the grain after acceptance, and completing a household?

She is so naive!

The delivery of public food was not so smooth at all.

It's the turn of the queue. The people at the grain station should take a hollow iron pipe and put it into a sack. If they take it out, they can take it out for grain inspection. The wheat in southern Henan Province matured in June. At the end of June, it was handed over to the grain station once. This time, it was rice.

The iron pipe brought out some rice. The people at the grain station fell into the palm of their hand and looked at it:

"Unqualified."

The people who paid the grain laughed and said good things. I don't know what to say, but later it became third-class grain.

The third-class grain is qualified, but the grain grade is low, and the number of kilograms to be paid is more - the evaluation standard is in the hands of the grain station inspector. Only when it is low, there is almost no first-class grain.

It was almost noon, and finally it was Chen's turn.

When the people at the grain station saw sister-in-law Chen, their expression was still very serious, but they rated her rice as "first class".

Xia Xiaolan couldn't see the difference between rice and rice, and those around her were certainly unconvinced, but no one had a theory with the people in the grain station. There were whispers:

"The Chen family in Qijing village."

"Chen Wang..."

"Shh, don't talk."

Chen Wangda doesn't have to come at all. The old man is with the leaders of the village. When it was his turn, the people in the grain station were automatically rated as "first class". Xia Xiaolan also saw the doorway. People made a name and established a shadow. The old man's prestige was there, and the people in the grain Station didn't dare to be a ghost.

The acceptance of the public grain of the Chen family was very fast, and they soon arrived at Li Fengmei's house. The rice weighed by Li Fengmei and Xia Xiaolan at home was 100 Jin per bag, but it was less than 80 Jin on the scale at the grain Station - Li Fengmei didn't look good and didn't say anything.

Xia Xiaolan had seen the fishiness. Can she jump out and expose it? Fighting in the workplace is not all positive energy. Xia Xiaolan knows that kids are difficult to deal with.

"This is also my home."

Mrs. Chen added casually.

The people at the grain station look at the grain receipt. The head of the household's surname is Liu. It has nothing to do with Chen's eight poles. How can it be a family?
