“咱们准备一下吧!大丫她们也快来了.”林希言说着站起来道.

“那你们忙吧!我去实验室.”花半枝跟着起身道.

等大丫她们来了,林希言开始给孩子们讲课.

天黑了,林希言让周光明将大丫她们送回了家,然后给两个孩子刷牙,洗脸,洗脚,哄着孩子睡觉.

Zhou Guangming came back to wash and went back to the bedroom.

林希言在书房待的时间差不多了,才去实验室抓花半枝.

&*&

花半枝从实验室出来拉着林希言道,“你跟我进来.”

“干什么?”林希言不解地看着他说道.

Hua Banzhi pushed open the door of the warehouse that had been closed.

这些年粮食计划,每个月去粮店买的加上副食品丰富,足够吃了,所以这扇门很久没有打开了.

Hua Banzhi touched the light rope at the door and pulled the light open.

黑漆漆的房间顿时亮如白昼,林希言眨眨眼看着她说道,“好好的来仓库做什么?”他看着屋里的五六口大画缸,基本上将屋里给占满了.

林希言摸摸画缸上扣着的油布,许久没进来,居然是纤尘不染.

“我有经常进来打扫,不仅屋子里,就连画缸里也放着驱虫药.”花半枝看着他说道,“有想起来吗?”

林希言挠挠头看着她说道,“我记得在有粮本之前,你买了不少粮食,咱们不是掺着杂粮给吃了不少,怎么看着还有这么多.”

“那是刚开始,后来你挣来的精米足够咱们掺和着吃了,所以还剩现在这些了.”花半枝看着他说道,“但是这些都是陈粮.”

“咱想要新粮也没有啊!”林希言看着她说道,约莫估算了一下道,“这里大概有一千斤粮食.”

“对!大米多,大都是三级米.”花半枝看着他小声地说道.

“不错了现在碎米都没有了.”林希言轻叹一声道.

“面粉也大都是普通粉,蒸出来的馒头发黄,发黑.富强粉少,这里的主食是大米.”花半枝说着将油纸布给解开,浓郁的米香扑面而来.

林希言吸溜吸溜鼻子,有多久没有闻见米香了.

“你想怎么样?”林希言抬眼看着她问道.

"This is the Chinese New Year, I'll give my relatives and friends a share." Hua Banzhi looked at him and said, "Secretary Fan has not written a letter of help. You can send some rice, flour and dried sweet potatoes to your brothers. We just need to leave the food for the children and take the rest to save our lives."

林希言激动地抱着她道,“枝枝,我有没有说过我很爱你.”

"Don't you love me before?" Hua Banzhi said playfully at him, and said, "Okay, look at it!" After thinking, "Leave some flour for Grandpa Guangming, it's the New Year! At least make a meal of dumplings and send some sweet potatoes and sweet potato seedlings. No one seems to have arranged it here."

“行,没问题.”林希言看着她点头应道.

“好了,这下子手中有粮心不慌,洗洗睡觉了.”花半枝将大画缸重新寄好了,关上灯,关上门,与林希言一起出了仓库.

Wash and go back to the room to sleep.

&*&

转过天,花半枝一大早起来,就叫着周光明跟自己在外面走走.

“光明你爷爷给你写信了吗?”花半枝坐在路边的长椅上看着问道.

"I wrote it!" Zhou Guangming nodded.

“情况不好吧!”花半枝黑眸轻闪看着他说道.

“嗯!非常不好,已经不让出村了.”周光明抬眼看着她说道,“娘,能不能让我给爷爷寄些红薯.”

“我也正想跟你说这个,寄些红薯,在寄些红薯苗,还有面粉.”花半枝黑白分明的双眸看着他说道.

“红薯苗好,这样可以种,就能收获更多.”周光明感激地看着花半枝道,“还是您想的周到,谢谢娘.”

“谢什么?你是我儿子.”花半枝眼神温暖地看着他说道,“我是因为你才给他们的,记住了吗?”

吃过早饭花半枝看着林希言问道,“马上要过年了,这一回有节目安排没有.”

“这时候哪有心情?别说有没有心情看,这有力气表演没有?”林希言看着他微微摇头道.

“错!这时候才更需要提升士气.”花半枝挑眉看着他说道,“你应该比我知道吧!”

林希言沉吟了一下道,“这个我跟何大哥商量一下,可以暂时忘却烦心事.”顿了一下道,“离春节还有十来天,应该可以.”

“又不用什么准备,把你们拿手的上台表演,主要是为了缓解压力,转移注意力.”花半枝看着他认真地说道,“那怕是片刻也好.”

"Yeah!" Lin Xiyan nodded.

&*&

正式上班前,林希言敲开了何红军办公室的门.

“这么早,找我有事?”何红军看着走进来的他说道,指着办公桌前的椅子道,“坐!”

“我想问一下这春节有安排节目吗?”林希言看着他问道.

“你不是对这个一点儿都不积极吗?今儿怎么关心这个了?”何红军看着他好奇地问道.

“这不是需要提振士气嘛!”林希言看着他说明来意道.

"I originally thought that I wouldn't be in that mood this year, but I'll do it after you say that!" He Hongjun looked at him and laughed, "I'll ask the propaganda department to prepare for the program? Everyone doesn't even need rehearsals." He sighed, "The morale has been really low these days. I feel that I'm not living a life, but enduring it!"

“哎!姓梁的现在老实了吧!”何红军看着他笑眯眯地说道,“碰了一鼻子灰.”话锋一转道,“不知道憋着啥坏呢!咱们得小心点儿.可不能松懈了.”

“我知道.”林希言看着他点头道,轻抚额头道,“只是这样防着,影响工作.”

“没办法!”何红军摊开双手无奈地看着他说道,“上面空降的,背景硬啊!轻易换不得.而且他的行事可是符合政策.”

林希言看着他冷静地又道,“其实还好,他在业务方面没有过多的使绊子.就是换一个也未必有他干的好.”

“他在这儿也好,时刻提醒着咱,千万别在政治上犯错.”何红军看着他嘿嘿一笑道,一派乐观.
