Chapter 97 97 Huang Meihua’s inner thoughts are: What else does your uncle have…

The next morning, Ding Dayong got enough sleep and his mind was much clearer than the day before. He paused while eating breakfast, thinking of the message from the commune last night. He said to his parents, "I'd better go to the post office in town and call my sister. What if there's any situation with my sister?"

Could it be that the second uncle was quick enough to call Fengning, and the uncle and aunt knew about it and went to cause trouble for his sister?

Hearing her eldest son's words, Peng Guihua also hurriedly said, "Then go quickly after you finish eating." Xiang Xiang added, "Also tell your eldest sister that our family is not afraid of trouble, tell her not to worry, and don't take everything on yourself, because I and your father are here for you."

Ding Dayong nodded: "If there is nothing else, I will go around town and buy some things after the call."

Find a repair shop in town, buy some parts and keep them at home. When you have enough parts, you can build a bicycle for your family.

After dinner, Ding Dayong went to the brigade to borrow a bicycle.

In the entire Yangjiawo, only the brigade headquarters had bicycles. You had to pay to borrow one, 20 cents a day.

The price was not this before. Local members paid 1.5 cents a day, and educated youth paid 2 cents. As a result, some clever people took advantage of the situation to make extra money. They rented the house for 1.5 cents, and after leaving the village, they sold it to the educated youth waiting there for 1.8 cents.

This matter was later discovered by the village, and the special benefits for the village members were cancelled. That clever guy had to carry manure for a whole year.

After paying the money, he rode away holding the handlebars with one hand.

He couldn't exert force with his injured arm, but it didn't affect him as he was riding by himself without carrying any heavy objects.

I arrived at the post office, called the number and waited about twenty minutes for the call to be returned.

"sister?"

Ding Guo's voice came from the phone: "It's me. I asked someone from the commune to send you a message yesterday. Did they deliver it?"

Ding Dayong hurriedly said, "It's delivered. Sister, is there anything going on over there?"

Ding Guo smiled and said, "I don't have anything to do here. I suddenly thought that you might not be able to keep it a secret when you go back to transfer your household registration. Work is very popular these days. If your second uncle and second aunt find out, they will probably go to your house to make a scene... By the way, have you completed the formalities? Did your second uncle and second aunt know about it? Did they go to your house to make a scene? What did they say?"

Ding Guo pretended to be ignorant and threw a series of questions halfway through his speech, and decided to listen to Dayong talk about the situation at home first.

Ding Dayong: "The formalities were completed, but the second uncle didn't go. The second aunt went home and cried. But she thought it was the uncle and aunt who helped me find the job and it was a regular job, so she kept scolding them."

As soon as he told the story, he heard his sister laughing and saying, "It's pretty much what I guessed, and I didn't let anyone spread the wrong message. Go back and explain it clearly to your uncle and aunt, and tell the truth directly, don't hide it."

Ding Dayong: "Sister, you don't have to tell them the truth. I'm afraid they will cause trouble for you."

Ding Guo held the microphone and persuaded him earnestly: "Dayong, you should know how tempting it is to be a formal employee. If they are unwilling to give up, they will come to Fengning to make trouble with your uncle and aunt. Won't your uncle and aunt take the opportunity to make trouble for me? Explain it to them clearly. If they still insist on coming, then it is not our fault. Your uncle and aunt will not use this matter to squeeze me. We can't leave a message to your uncle and aunt."

Her second uncle and second aunt rolled around behind her backstage all night, which showed that the couple was so anxious that they didn't sleep all night. Given this momentum, Ding Guo really didn't doubt that the second family would impulsively move into the city.

She had understood what they had just heard. They were just venting their anger on her. The fact that they were so angry at her and had such a huge mood swing was enough to show that they were almost going crazy with jealousy.

Ding Dayong thought, I didn't expect that my eldest sister has been away from home for such a long time. What she thought about Second Uncle's family is really accurate. He has heard from his mother that Second Aunt really plans to go to Fengning with him. He said, "Sister, if you take over everything, will they rely on you?"

Ding Guo smiled and said, "Can they blame me? Have I eaten their rice or noodles? Don't worry about it, just tell them directly, show off when you should, don't be low-key! Oh, by the way, tell your second aunt about the happy events at home when you have the chance. Your uncle's family has been so lively recently, you should let the old family members be happy too."

Huang Meihua still has a grudge against Yue Hongmei. Last time Yue Hongmei asked Huang Meihua to find someone from her hometown to be Ding Nianjun's "dowry", but it didn't work out. Huang Meihua and Ding Ergou were at loggerheads. If Huang Meihua really had the energy to come to Fengning and knew a lot of "happy" things about the old Ding family, she could go back to watch the fun.

Ding Dayong understood immediately: "I understand, sister. I will go back and find Second Aunt and talk to her."

After paying the phone bill and coming out of the post office, I just unlocked my bicycle and saw Ding Tao running towards me breathlessly.

Huang Meihua was really jealous this time. She envied Ding Dayong for becoming a city worker, and was angry that her uncle was partial to her. She also remembered that Yue Hongmei had cheated her last time and broke her promise, which made her have a bad reputation in the village. Now she met Ding Ergou, the drunkard, and spit at her, asking her to give her a city son-in-law.

And there's that little bitch Ding Erya. In the past, she would call her auntie when she saw her, but now she just turns her head and walks away when she sees her. It seems that she's feeling itchy because she can't get the man she wants.

Huang Meihua thought about it over and over again, cursing this and that in her heart. She couldn't sleep all night like a pancake, and when she woke up in the morning, there were two big blisters at the corners of her mouth.

As a result, today she suddenly saw Ding Dayong riding his bike out of the village. She ignored the team leader's repeated shouts and chased her daughter outside to see what Ding Dayong was doing and whether he was buying a return ticket.

Ding Tao didn't feel tired, and for the sake of her own future, she ran backwards to chase him all the way. But she still lost him after reaching the town. She was looking for him everywhere like a headless fly in frustration, when she saw Ding Dayong coming out of the post office and rushed over.

"Dayong, what are you doing?" Ding Tao asked, staring at Ding Dayong with burning eyes, without even catching her breath.

Ding Dayong: “Buy groceries!”

Ding Tao looked surprised: "You come to the post office to buy vegetables?"

Ding Dayong: "You know this is a post office, but you still ask, what else can you do in a post office?"

Ding Tao rolled her eyes and continued to ask, "Are you going to the county to buy a ticket?"

Ding Dayong got into the car and said, "If I don't buy it, I'll just go around!"

"Take me with you!"

Ding Dayong shook his injured arm and said, "I can't lead anyone, you lead me."

Ding Tao was furious: "You are a grown man, and you want me to take you on a bike?"

Ding Dayong was too lazy to talk to her anymore. He stepped on the scooter and drove away. He stepped very hard and rushed out. Ding Tao was so angry that she jumped behind him: "Ding Dayong!" She chased after him for two steps, stopped and pounded her sore legs, then gritted her teeth and ran after him again.

Her mother said that Ding Dayong must be kept under close watch.

The town was not big, and Ding Dayong rode around in no time. He only found a repair shop. He picked out some parts, bargained with the mechanic, paid the money, hung the parts on the handlebars, and rode away.

On the way, he met Ding Tao who was walking towards Yangjiawo. Ding Dayong "flew" over like riding a Hot Wheels, which caused another round of angry shouting.

Ding Tao could not run as fast as Ding Dayong on his bike. After chasing him for a while, she lost sight of him and had to go home. Unexpectedly, Ding Dayong caught up with her halfway through the journey, which made her feel anxious. Where did Ding Dayong go during this time?

Ding Dayong arrived at the village but did not return the bike as he needed to ride it again later.

Taking advantage of the fact that Ding Tao was following him, he went to the field to find his second uncle and aunt, and took them aside to talk.

"Uncle, Madam, you don't have to stare at me so closely. Aren't you afraid of tiring Sister Ding Tao? I know that you are upset about my job, and you think that Uncle and Madam are partial to me. I'll tell you the truth. Uncle and Madam didn't help me find this job. Our two families don't have a good relationship. Do you think he can help me find a job? It was Sister Ding Guo who brought me to the city, it was Sister Ding Guo who found a job for me, and it was Sister Ding Guo who helped me get a permanent job. If you want to go to the city to find Uncle and Madam to arrange a job for Sister Ding Tao, I advise you to give up this idea. Aunt is unemployed at home. If Uncle has the ability, can he not help Aunt find a job?"

Huang Meihua naturally didn't believe his words. If Ding Guo was so capable, why did he let the one who occupied the family stay in the city, while she, his relative, went to the countryside?

So, she pouted and rolled her eyes while listening, but at the end, her eyes widened instantly, and she grabbed Ding Dayong's arm and said, "What did you say? Your aunt is unemployed and at home?"

Ding Dayong nodded, pulled his arm out of Er Niang's hand, and said frankly, "Ding Jianshe stole things from the factory and sold them for money. He was caught by the factory and beaten. Only his teeth were not broken. Then the factory fired him. If there is no job in the city, you have to go to the countryside. Auntie didn't want Ding Jianshe to go to the countryside, so she gave him the job."

"Ding Jianshe is... your uncle's second son?" Ding Zhige thought for a moment before asking.

My eldest brother and his family seldom come back often, so I have only seen some of my nephews once and some of them I have never seen at all, so I cannot recognize them immediately.

Huang Meihua never thought that the sister-in-law who always acted arrogantly every time she came back was not a worker!

She tried her best to suppress the gloating on her face, but she couldn't. She laughed twice and asked Ding Jianshe about stealing things from the factory. After hearing that, she felt unsatisfied and grabbed Ding Dayong's arm again: "What else is going on at your uncle's house? Tell me and your second uncle quickly."

Huang Meihua’s inner thoughts were: If there is any bad luck happening in your uncle’s family, tell us about it and make your stepmother happy!

Ding Dayong raised his eyebrows. His sister even told him to talk to Second Mother about the things happening in First Mother's family when he had a chance, and there was no need to find a special opportunity.

He scratched his head and said, "My eldest cousin got married. Oh, that Ding Nianjun... the one my aunt brought back also got married and moved to the capital. She was fired from the factory before she got married. The reason for her dismissal was that my aunt spent five or six hundred yuan to buy the test questions she took to enter the factory. For this, my aunt was investigated by the Revolutionary Committee, but she was not punished."

Huang Meihua took a deep breath after hearing this: "My sister-in-law has been put on the Revolutionary Committee? Why hasn't she been punished?"

Ding Dayong shook his head: "I don't know!"

Seeing that the second aunt was so shocked that she didn't come back to her senses for a long time, and the second uncle was standing beside her in a daze, he quietly left and rode his bike to the county town.

Although Huang Meihua didn't come back to her senses, there was a secret and strange smile on her face unconsciously.

Ding Zhige also didn't expect that so many things had happened to his eldest brother's family, who were so glorious in their eyes.

His nephew stole things from the factory, and his sister-in-law bought test questions, spending several hundred dollars on them. Ding Zhige felt very upset, and so did Huang Meihua, who had reacted.

Huang Meihua gloated enough and suddenly asked, "Dad, when our family wanted to build a house, which year did you write to Fengning to ask your eldest brother for money?"

Let’s calculate in which year Ding Nianjun, the guy who took the exam, started working… Don’t ask why we know this, because Yue Hongmei boasted about it when she came back for the Chinese New Year that year, but she concealed the fact that she bought the exam questions, saying that Nianjun worked hard to get in and became a small cadre.

Counting on my fingers, wasn't it just before that?

"Okay, your brother and sister-in-law are really..." Huang Meihua was so angry that she pinched her husband twice, "I couldn't even borrow a hundred yuan from him, but the eldest sister-in-law was willing to spend five or six hundred to buy that guy who occupied the place. What did he buy?"

"Buy questions!" Ding Zhige said in a muffled voice.

At this moment, the resentment in his heart reached its peak.

"And your niece is nothing either. After all, we watched her grow up. Even if she's not good enough, she and Ding Tao are cousins ​​who are connected by blood. If you can help Dayong, why can't you help Ding Tao?"

Regardless of whether Dayong is right or not, I’ll scold him first out of respect.

She must go to Fengning, as it is a good opportunity to settle the score with Yue Hongmei for cheating her last time.

If she hadn't considered that Fengning was too far away, she would have gone to Hua Yue Hongmei's house and scratched her face.

Now her reputation has been ruined. Although the reputation that Yue Hongmei asked her to publicize is not very good, she is not in the village. The villagers can't see Yue Hongmei. They will forget about the heated discussion in two days. She can't do that, especially Ding Ergou, who is not only a drunkard, but also a scoundrel. He spits at her and yells at her from time to time, and he doesn't tell people about it. As a result, the villagers remember things that they should have forgotten and laugh at her from time to time.

Three days later, Ding Dayong squeezed out of Fengning Railway Station, followed by a group of people carrying things on their shoulders and in their hands.

Ding Guo received a telegram from Ding Dayong and came over to pick someone up...mainly to pick up things.

Third Aunt brought a lot of food.

Originally, if Ding Dayong came back by himself, Peng Guihua would not have planned to let him bring much things out of consideration for her son's arm, but the second wife insisted on going with him, so she went to Ding Dayong's house at night and solemnly asked him to take them into the city and ask Peng Guihua to help take care of the two younger daughters at home. After seeing her son nod, Peng Guihua did not hesitate to use them as donkeys and helped carry things.

One hundred kilograms of corn, fifty kilograms of wheat, one hundred kilograms of green radishes and some miscellaneous items.

What Ding Guo saw was Ding Dayong walking in front carrying a yellow canvas handbag in one hand, second uncle Ding Zhige had a big bag hanging around his neck and on his chest, a big bag of radishes on his shoulders, second aunt carrying a big bag of corn, and although Ding Tao also did farm work all year round, she was not as strong as her mother, and she walked laboriously beside them carrying the fifty kilograms of wheat.

"Daniel!"

When Huang Meihua saw Ding Guo, she didn't want to leave anymore, so she called out to Ding Guo, wanting him to come forward and help her.

Ding Guo stood there, looking at her with a smile, and said, "Second Aunt, please walk a few steps faster."

Yellow plum blossom: ...

Ding Guo didn't come alone. A bicycle couldn't carry so many things, so she called Xiao Hong to help.

Before the food was even packed on the truck, Huang Meihua couldn't wait to find Ding Guo to confirm: "Dani'er, did you really help Dayong find that job?"

Ding Guo nodded, "Yeah, my parents don't care. They would rather care about outsiders than their own nephew, so I'll help you find one. Second Aunt, you don't know, it's very hard to find a job in the city. I don't want to go through the trouble again, even if I'm given a thousand yuan. It's useless for you to come here, my dad will definitely not help."

Yellow plum blossom: ...

The words that were not spoken were stuck in my mouth.

At Ding Dayong's signal, Ding Zhige moved the carrot to the back seat of another car, took a deep breath, and said, "Dani'er, you can't say that. What on earth are you..."

Ding Guo turned to look at him and said, "Second Uncle, are you really going to give Ding Tao a thousand yuan to help him get in touch with you?"

Ding Zhige: …

Huang Meihua said unhappily, "Forget it, go home first, I'll talk to your parents."

Ding Guo placed the fifty kilograms of wheat and the bag in Ding Dayong's hand on top of the radish, tied it tightly with a hemp rope, and said to Ding Dayong naturally: "Dayong, take your second uncle and second aunt to take a car. If you go faster, you can still catch up with dinner. If you arrive early, ask your aunt to go out and buy some more dishes to treat your second uncle and his family well."

After she returned home and delivered the food, she went over to watch the fun.

Ding Dayong smiled and nodded: "I understand, sister!"

He took the second family and walked towards the bus stop.
