Gu Changhong spent a little money to have Shi Junyao cook for him that morning.
It was nothing more than steaming two sweet potatoes; this breakfast was probably the worst Gu Changhong had ever eaten.
In the past, even on the train, she could buy a boxed meal.
That tasted better than those two sweet potatoes.
But isn't this without conditions?
The worst part is that they still have to come and work.
I get up at five o'clock to go to work, and then eat around seven o'clock.
I have to come to work again at eight o'clock.
How agonizing is this?
Gu Changhong wanted to find an opportunity to simply take leave, or perhaps not have to work at all.
Unfortunately, there's no way to do that; the brigade won't agree.
Gu Changhong couldn't let the educated youth office return it either.
Because going back means ending up on the farm.
Gu Changhong was already annoyed, and then she had to listen to other people gossiping.
At first, she was also very irritable.
Until she heard an even more irritating piece of news.
"Gu Yunyang went to work as a consultant at an agricultural machinery factory."
"Yes, they haven't stayed with our brigade these past few days, have they?"
Gu Yunyang went to work as a consultant at an agricultural machinery factory?
Him?
Gu Changhong didn't know much about Gu Yunyang, but she still felt that how could a nobody like Gu Yunyang possibly make it big?
Wait a minute, Gu Yunyang isn't at the brigade; he's actually at the agricultural machinery factory?
Gu Changhong immediately reported it.
Gu Hanping picked at his ear, unable to believe what he was hearing: "Say it again?"
Gu Changhong wondered if she had misheard, so she repeated herself: "I'm reporting Gu Yunyang. He's clearly from the brigade, so why is everyone else working but he's not? He even went to the commune and got double the work points."
This is what Gu Changhong heard over there.
Gu Hanping was speechless: "What exactly are you trying to say? What does the business of our brigade cadres have to do with you, an educated youth?"
“How can it not be related?” Gu Changhong said loudly, “We educated youth who went to the countryside were also part of the brigade. We just can’t stand that some people do nothing but receive double wages. That’s not fair.”
“Fair?” Gu Hanping scoffed. “What is fairness? The brigade secretary has done far more than you. After he came, he brought us two wild oxen, which he domesticated into domestic cattle.”
In addition, he helped us raise the cattle, and another cow is pregnant and will give birth to a calf this year, so we can have a steady supply of cattle in the future.
Furthermore, he spearheaded the establishment of a sugar-making workshop for us, which brought economic benefits to our brigade.
It's not like he's been idle. Right now, the brigade is managed by just a few of us. If he goes to work at the agricultural machinery factory, it will be beneficial for the brigade.
"Alright, that's enough. You'd better get to work. If you don't get any work points, you won't get any grain next month."
In fact, there were no requirements regarding where the brigade cadres went.
The monthly allowance is only about two yuan, or some tickets.
Gu Yunyang didn't delay the brigade's affairs. Besides, the police station and agricultural machinery factory's affairs were also for the good of the collective.
Therefore, nobody pays attention to these things.
Gu Changhong was scolded, but Gu Hanping didn't care.
He also thought Gu Changhong was just being boring, probably because he had enjoyed bullying Gu Yunyang before.
Now they even want to interfere with Gu Yunyang, they can't stand seeing Gu Yunyang doing well.
This person's heart is black.
As soon as Gu Changhong left, someone came to report: "Captain, come quickly. Ning An is back."
Ning An is back?
Gu Hanping was taken aback at first, and then his heart jumped.
The messenger immediately added, "They're making a ruckus in the fields right now."
What?
Gu Hanping didn't even have time to curse in his heart, and rushed over as fast as he could.
