From a distance, Lu Wensheng saw a figure whizzing past, and a voice drifted in the wind:
"Sister Lu, help me!"
Then, Lu Wensheng saw another figure whizzing past, and a voice drifted in the wind:
"Shengsheng, don't interfere!"
Lu Wensheng thought about it and sighed for Ma Yingjie:
Alas! My life is over...
As the bell rang for the end of work, Lu Wensheng had finished weaving his cushion. He simply tucked it under his armpit and walked back with it. He would sit on it while peeling corn tonight.
On the way home, I encountered a small incident. Zhao Ying, who had gone to the commune to register, came back. From the way she was panting, I knew she had walked all the way back.
"Hey, Aibao, you just went to the city to get your hair permed!"
It was just time to get off work, and there were quite a few people on the street. One by one, they surrounded Zhao Ying and touched her hair.
"Oh, it has to be our Zhao Zhiqing, she is so beautiful. Look at her face and her stature. Li Lai is lucky...ah, Li Aibao is lucky!"
"That's right, our Zhao Zhiqing is so beautiful and well-dressed, there are only a few like him in the surrounding area, and even an old woman like me is jealous of him."
Zhao Ying was surrounded by several old women, who were fiddling with her hair. She wanted to get angry, but she couldn't help but keep praising her. She felt a little flattered for a moment.
When they saw Lu Wensheng standing not far away, they couldn't help but straighten their chests.
"puff……!"
Lu Wensheng couldn't help laughing out loud, and quickly covered his mouth and left. Looking at Zhao Ying's permed hair, she believed that she was thirty years old this year. It was really unbearable to look at!
By the time she got home from watching the excitement, most people had already returned. She didn't know how Han Muchen taught Lu Hao a lesson, but he ate standing up that night anyway...
Meng Qingtang was still gloating, it looked like he was beaten pretty hard~
After dinner, they had to go to the threshing ground to work overtime. All the men, women, young and old in the village, from the old to the young, all went out to husk corn. Even Chen Shanhe came on crutches.
In the words of the team leader: "You don't need legs to pick corn, so you have to crawl for me!"
Lu Wensheng also saw a few unfamiliar faces, mostly people who were not usually at home:
"There are quite a lot of people in our village!" Lu Wensheng talked to Shen Lingling beside him.
"Well, I just happened to see him after coming back from the Mid-Autumn Festival. There will be many people here during the Chinese New Year!" Shen Lingling replied.
After the team leader divided the team into small groups, everyone took their small stools and sat at their seats to pick corn.
The torches that were used to thresh rice last time were lit again around the threshing ground, illuminating people's facial expressions very clearly.
For example, right now, when Ma Yingjie and Li Youliang get together, they are simply brainless and unhappy. One of them has a long face, and the other is also cool and silly...
Han Muchen and Meng Qingtang on the other side were the two door gods standing there, um... one was Shentu and the other was Yulei, one had a serious look and the other was leisurely and contented.
Lu Wensheng and Shen Lingling sitting opposite each other was like watching a peep show. It was quite interesting.
"Deer Educated Youth"
When Lu Wensheng heard someone calling him, he turned around and saw a young woman he didn't recognize, so he stood up and said:
"What do you want from me?"
"My name is Sun Ning, and I'm also an educated youth. But I'm married, and my partner is from the same village. My mother-in-law is Wang Yinhua." Sun Ning introduced himself generously.
"Oh, hello. I heard from the village chief. Do you have something to talk to me about?"
Sun Ning quickly handed the basket to Lu Wensheng: "This is August fried dough sticks. My mother-in-law asked me to give it to you. She said she had agreed with you today."
Just as Lu Wensheng was about to refuse, Sun Ning interrupted him: "Lu Zhiqing, you can't refuse, otherwise my mother-in-law will definitely blame me for not being able to do anything. This is what my father-in-law picked from the mountain this afternoon. It's fresh, so eat it as soon as possible."
Lu Wensheng had no choice but to accept it: "Then I won't be polite. Please help me say thank you to Aunt Wang."
Sun Ning nodded and smiled and left: "Okay, I have to go back and take care of the kids, so I won't stay any longer."
Then he said hello to Shen Lingling beside him and left.
"Do you know him?"
Lu Wensheng saw that the two of them did not look like the first time they met.
Shen Lingling nodded: "Yes, she is a teacher in the village. I saw her before when I was cutting grass for pigs."
"Oh, I heard from the village chief that a young intellectual married into the village and became a teacher in the primary school. It turns out that she is the one." Lu Wensheng understood.
No wonder he could become a teacher, it turned out to be because of his relationship with the team leader.
Shen Lingling came close to her and whispered: "Actually, we originally wanted to let the captain's sister be the teacher, but his sister is too young and is still in high school, so we let Sun Ning go."
"The captain has a sister? I haven't heard of it."
"Yes, I'm in high school in the county."
Seeing her constipated face, Lu Wensheng knew something was wrong: "Don't hold it in. It's uncomfortable."
Shen Lingling burst out laughing: "I can't hide anything from you!"
"She...if nothing unexpected happens, she will come back during the winter vacation this year, and then she will take a fancy to Chen Shanhe..."
Lu Wensheng was stunned. This paragraph was not in the book she was reading. Could it be that she missed it?
"Surprised? Last time I got married to Chen, she was involved. That was not a good thing!"
Lu Wensheng was thoughtful. She had to go back and think about the original book. She felt that many plots were broken...
"Sister Lu, what are you two talking about?" Unhappy came over at this time.
Of course Lu Wensheng knew why he came up to him, and pointed to the basket next to him: "Auntie Wang sent me some fried August snacks, try some."
Ma Yingjie: "Will it explode in August? Will it explode in September?"
Lu Wensheng: Um... Actually, she also wanted to ask...
Still a fool but knowledgeable: "This is wax gourd, it's delicious but hard to pick. It seems you have a good relationship with Aunt Wang."
Lu Wensheng thought for a moment: "No?" Could it be that she had something to ask of him?
There’s probably no way you can escape!
What can I ask for? It's just a job in the county town. I can't make any decisions about anything else...
As the name suggests, August Explosion is a wild fruit that explodes in August, revealing the white flesh inside, which tastes very sweet.
The only drawback is that it has a lot of seeds, so you basically have to eat the flesh among the seeds. But in this era of food and clothing shortages, it is still a very valuable wild fruit.
Lu Wensheng also ate two and found the taste very fresh: "It's okay, but there are too many seeds."
Shen Lingling: "Eat less. I'll make you fish noodle soup later."
"good."
