I can't take care of other places, but our commune is right under my nose, do you think I can just watch it?

I see that this year's sweet potatoes are growing well, and if this development continues, I will be able to harvest more sweet potatoes in autumn.

Don't care what it is, if you can fill the big guy's stomach and not starve, it's better than anything else. ”

Qiao Lian sighed, this famine lasted too long, her strength alone was too insignificant, and that was all she could do.

"But I've survived until now, at least the potatoes in every household's field come down, and then mixed with other vegetables, I can always eat enough, which is good.

It's almost the same if you stay up for another two months, and the sweet potato thing doesn't pay the public grain and purchase quota.

I pondered that this year's sweet potato production alone is enough for the big guys to fill their stomachs. ”

This year, there are 100 acres of sweet potatoes that are replenished in the later stage, and many of them have been planted in the commune before.

The yield of sweet potatoes is still good, especially the new varieties obtained by Qiaolian, how can one acre of land produce more than 2,000 catties and nearly 3,000 catties.

If you calculate it this way, sweet potatoes alone can cover most of the rations.

In addition to other grains, there are also small plots of land left by each family.

Anyway, mixed with vegetables, although I can't eat anything good this autumn and winter, I shouldn't starve.

In a blink of an eye, August passed like this, and the children started school.

The higher authorities ordered the health workers of the communes to report to the provincial health school before September 1.

The two hygienists of Daying Commune, Yang Xuemei and Qi Yufen, were on the training list, and Qiaolian also greeted the two families in advance.

Xuemei and Yufen went out to study, and the travel expenses were reimbursed by the commune, and they lived in the school dormitory during the study period, and they were also reimbursed for food.

Everything is paid by the government, and the two girls only need to take their clothes and luggage and leave.

This time, I went out to study for almost a year, and when I came back, I was a serious doctor.

The good things that others dream of, the Yang family and the Qi family naturally do not object, and they all happily pick up the clothes and luggage for their daughter.

The two girls are Qiaolian's apprentices, and Qiaolian naturally can't afford to lose the children, so she specially prepared a set of toiletries for the children.

Soaps, toothbrushes, toothpaste, shampoos, alabasters, towels, washbasins, kettles, etc., are all prepared with new ones.

But the two girls were so happy, and the Yang family was also very grateful.

These things are in demand, not to mention the amount of money, and they may not be able to buy them so fully if they have money.

Han Dongming knew that Xuemei was going out to study, so he deliberately spent money to tear the cloth and give it to Xuemei, so that Xuemei could make a new set of clothes.

Not to mention, Han Dongming's vision is good, the fabric he bought back is very good, and the style that Qiaolian helped design, Xuemei looks particularly good when she wears it.

The health school training is in Changchun, and both families are not very comfortable letting their children go out by themselves.

But these two families have never been to the provincial capital, and they don't even know how to take the car.

Besides, the school year starts in September, not far from the autumn harvest, and the commune is very busy, and they can't spare time.

In the end, the two families came to ask Qiaolian and asked Qiaolian to escort the two children to Changchun.

Qiao Lian thought about it, it's okay, anyway, the health center is okay recently, it's not a big deal, and she can't delay anything when she goes out for a few days.

The two girls are going out to study, and she really should send them off.

It was so decided, on August 29, the commune sent Qiaolian and the three of them to the county, and then the three of them took the car to Tonghua.

In these years, there is no direct highway to the provincial capital, and it has to be reversed halfway, either at the mouth of the Meihe River, or in Tonghua.

Generally speaking, it is in Tonghua to take the train to the provincial capital, after all, the train travel is safer and cheaper.

Qiao Lian led the two girls to get into the car to Tonghua, bumpy along the way, and it took four or five hours to finally arrive.

When I arrived in Tonghua, I hurriedly asked for a train ticket, and there was a train from Tonghua to the provincial capital at 9:50 in the evening.

Hurriedly bought a ticket and only then came out of the station.

"There is only a car in the evening, and we are tired and hungry this morning.

Let's go, I'll lead you two to find a place to eat, whether the food is good or bad, let's eat something hot.

In the afternoon, I will take you two to the Jade Emperor Mountain for a spin, and in the evening, we will take the car and go to the provincial capital. ”

As soon as the two girls came out for the first time, Qiaolian intended to let the two girls walk more, how much long insight, and broaden their horizons.

As soon as the province goes out, I don't know the southeast and northwest, which is particularly restrictive.

The two girls naturally listened to Qiaolian's arrangement for everything, and they didn't have any opinions.

In this way, the three of them left their big luggage at the train station, but Qiaolian carried a bag and went to find a restaurant to eat.

At this time, there was nothing to eat anywhere, and there was nothing to eat in the restaurant.

I could only ask for a few black flour cakes, two plates of vegetarian stir-fry, and one soup.

The three of them nibbled on the cake and ate the vegetables and soup, so that they were full.

After eating, Qiaolian asked for some hot water from the housekeeper and put it in the aluminum pot they carried.

Then I inquired about the location of Jade Emperor Mountain, and then led the two girls to Jade Emperor Mountain to play.

This Tonghua Jade Emperor Mountain, used to be quite a famous place, there is the Jade Emperor Pavilion built in the Guangxu period on the mountain, and the Jade Emperor Mountain is also named after this.

In the old society, it was very famous here, and there were many good men and women who came to worship the incense.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, a zoo, a botanical garden and a martyr's monument were added to the Jade Emperor Mountain, which became a leisure park.

Qiaolian has never believed in gods and Buddhas, so there is no need to walk around the Jade Emperor Pavilion, just take a turn outside.

The scenery of Yuhuang Mountain in autumn is still full of good-looking, standing on the Wangjiang Pavilion overlooking the whole Tonghua, there is no interest.

Go and see the peacock in the zoo again, just take a flower handkerchief and shake it, and the peacock can't help but open the screen.

There are also a few old monkeys, holding the little monkeys in the sun, and while basking in the sun, they turn over the hair of the little monkeys and scratch lice.

The three of them stopped and looked everywhere, the two girls had never been far away, and they felt fresh to see everything.

The young man was also physically strong, so he walked around the mountain, and before he knew it, it was almost dark.

So I hurried down the mountain, returned to the vicinity of the train station, found another place to have dinner, and then returned to the train station to wait for the evening train.

At the end of August, the weather was not too cool, and there were many people at the train station, and the big guys were waiting for the train.

Qiao Lian instructed the girls, but no one paid attention to them, and sat quietly on the long chair.

During this period, several people came over and wanted to talk to Xuemei Yufen, but they were all blocked by Qiaolian.

Of course, at this time, most people are still full of simplicity, and now they can't eat enough, they are not in good spirits, they sit there and doze off, and most people are not in the mood to move around.

The three of them leaned together, closed their eyes and stared, until it was almost nine o'clock, when Qiaolian called the two girls to get up.

The three of them packed their bags, took their tickets, and waited in line to check in.

At 9:20 a.m., I checked in and got on the bus, found their seats, and put all my luggage away.

There weren't many people on the car, and the few long seats nearby were empty, so I didn't care about those, just one person and one seat, lying on top of it to sleep.
