"It's not convenient to bring so much cash over now, it's difficult to handle."
"Okay." Chen Yifei nodded. It would be good to go to the county tomorrow. He could pay back the 10,000 yuan he owed the county magistrate then.
Chen Yifei is not someone who likes to owe money. He usually pays back money directly when he is in debt, and he would never try to renege on his promise.
Moreover, he was constantly anxious and very worried.
So I was thinking of taking care of all these things tomorrow.
"When I get paid, I'll give you a bonus," Chen Yifei said with a smile. "Then everyone can come to my house for dinner."
"Okay! Thank you, Brother Fei!"
The pigs in front of them were weighed and put into the donkey cart.
It's impractical to use a tricycle to transport this stuff; otherwise, meat processing plants would use tricycles extensively, and they would be used to distribute it to various supply and marketing cooperatives. Sometimes, if something breaks down, it would just be thrown away.
Meat processing plants are very profitable; they're even more lucrative than textile factories in the Jiangnan region. This is currently the largest meat processing plant in Southwest China.
Therefore, they have the confidence.
For a while, it was popular to find tricycles at the foot of mountains, repair them, and use them to sell vegetables. Most of them were found by the villagers themselves.
Chen Yifei remembers that the first money he made when he rode his jingling bicycle and traded it with an old man to sell vegetables. It was a way of getting something for nothing...
Looking back now, it all seems so new and so fast, and the meat processing plant started to pay off.
Chen Yifei continued to look at the weighing area. The woman who was efficiently calculating the bill was none other than his wife!
When they arrived, the donkey cart was already prepared. He Runqing came along to oversee the weighing process; she has good calculation skills and was currently discussing the matter with a worker from the nearby meat processing plant.
He Runqing had a serious expression, and it was obvious that he was very charming when he was working, which was completely different from the petite beauty who usually stood next to him.
It seems he likes every aspect of his wife.
The situation is complicated now. Chen Yifei frowned and looked at Wang Hu: "Why is your sister-in-law here?"
"She has an upset stomach today, and she hasn't been in a good mood lately, so I was thinking of taking her back for a check-up later."
Wang Hu waved his hand: "These people came directly to your house, but no one was home. Sister Shuang went out to help someone cut fabric, leaving only Sister Xue at home. Then Sister Xue said she was afraid you would worry, so she contacted my dad. My dad told me to go and pick them up."
But his wife didn't tell him, so is she afraid of affecting him?
Chen Yifei felt a pang of heartache; why was she always so thoughtful, considering so many things? The more she did this, the more his heart ached for her.
Good women are few and far between, but luckily I met one.
At this moment, Wang Hu and Chen Yifei, who were standing nearby, also went over to help. Since the cadres from other villages had come to learn, they had to lend a hand.
So Chen Yifei has a lot more free labor today.
Especially when these pigs get startled, they run around everywhere, yelling that they don't want to be weighed, and at that time it's a complete mess.
The village party secretaries and brigade leaders from the neighboring village were all busy making arrests.
They were all already quite full, and now they were panting heavily, but seeing that the commune secretary was there, they were relieved!
Not wanting to slack off, I could only grit my teeth and keep going, afraid that the Party Secretary wouldn't see my efforts, so I worked with all my might.
Chen Yifei was happy to be free.
Today is a good start. Otherwise, if it were a single pig that wanted to be sold, it would probably have to be carried on the back of a bicycle and tied to a bamboo basket. Piglets could be put in the basket on the left and right sides, but the adult pig would have to be carried on the outside.
He thought it would take a lot of effort, but today the meat processing plant not only came to collect the meat, but also had so many people helping him. He was very happy.
Being able to get more rest would definitely be a happy thing.
This way I can have more free time to accompany my wife to the health center for medical treatment.
After finishing, Chen Yifei originally wanted to invite these cadres to his home for dinner.
But everyone avoided his gaze when they saw him, as if they were afraid that he might have some farm work that they would need to help with.
So now they all rushed to say, "Comrade Chen Yifei! No...no need to be so polite. We have to go now, we have some things to take care of at home."
"That's right, that's right. It's been a whole day, and my wife, kids, and grandchildren are all waiting."
"Comrade Chen Yifei, your spirit is worthy of our learning. We are all gone now."
"..."
They didn't even look back, and ran off in a flash.
The main problem is that these people are so exhausted that their legs are weak and they stagger a few steps when they walk.
Standing in front of his wife, Chen Yifei couldn't help but laugh and said, "Wait a minute, everyone! I don't mean anything by it, I just wanted to invite you to my house for dinner!"
"..." There was no response, even if you heard it.
They all pretended not to hear.
Such a large area, so much farm work to do.
If they stay, what if they ask you to help with mushroom cultivation and pig farming?
This is not something to be taken lightly. If you come to visit a family and they are busy with farm work, how could you possibly sit down on a bench to rest? Who would have the nerve to do that?
I'll have to help out no matter what.
They're all honest people; if they don't want to help, they don't help at all, but if they do help, they'll tie them up tightly.
So now I can't work anymore, I'm too tired to do anything, I need to go back and rest. Many village party secretaries and brigade leaders rarely do farm work anymore.
A team leader like Chen Jianguo, who sets an example and is wholeheartedly devoted to everyone, is truly excellent.
Indeed, Chen Jianguo is a very, very good person.
After everyone left, Chen Jianguo looked at Chen Yifei and said, "Don't just stand there. Take Qingqing to the clinic to get her checked out."
He Runqing was somewhat surprised; her father-in-law had always been a man of few words and rarely spoke. This was the first time he had said so much.
He Runqing shook her head: "I'm fine, I just haven't been feeling well these past few days."
"No need to trouble him."
At this moment, Chen Yifei picked him up horizontally and said, "How could it be troublesome? There's no need to use that word between husband and wife. My dad already said so, just listen."
As Chen Yifei was leaving, he casually said, "Dad, we won't be back tonight. Qingqing and I will be sleeping at the house in the city. The bedroom is all set up and has been aired out recently, so there shouldn't be any smell anymore. We've bought everything we needed."
"It's too late to see a doctor; it's not safe to come back."
In reality, Chen Yifei just wanted some time alone with He Runqing.
Chen Jianguo nodded: "Mm."
"Go quickly!"
This time, Chen Yifei didn't put his wife on the back seat. Instead, he supported her little bottom and placed her on the crossbar in front of the bicycle.
“If you sit here, I’ll protect you and make things better for you. I’ll ride slowly so I can see how you are.”
"Okay~" she said gently, from a perfect angle that allowed her to see him from below.
"Chen Yifei, you are so kind."
