As soon as Lu Wensheng walked out of the state-owned restaurant, he wiped his lips and ran to the supply and marketing cooperative.
It's too hot outside. Even though Liaoning Province is relatively far to the north, it's still midsummer noon.
She kind of missed modern ice cream and iced soda...
When Lu Wensheng thought about having to pedal her bike hard under the scorching sun after missing the bus, she wanted to die, so she had to make a quick decision!
"Omo Omo... go go go"
Lu Wensheng ran all the way to the supply and marketing cooperative thinking about the fat man's happy water and fried chicken beer. Although it was noon, the supply and marketing cooperative was not closed yet, so he hurried to the daily necessities area and asked:
"Hello, comrade. Do you have toilet paper?"
The salesperson was immediately interested when he saw that the visitor was a pretty girl, and replied:
"No, toilet paper is a special product, and our supply and marketing cooperative does not have it."
Well, I came here in vain.
Toilet paper these days is actually still specially supplied. I guess I have to ask Bai Dazhuang next time to see if I can get it on the black market. So I thanked the salesperson with a smile and moved on to the non-staple food area.
In the food area, Lu Wensheng used the tickets Shao Qian exchanged for her to buy cakes and snacks, and put them directly into her small granary to prevent her from using them to fill her stomach when she got off work late and didn't have time to cook. Suddenly she thought of something and asked:
"Comrade, do you have any brown sugar?"
"some."
Lu Wensheng was overjoyed and quickly replied, "I want five pounds."
After paying the money and tickets, I carried the bags out of the supply and marketing cooperative, found a deserted place, put the things in the space, and ran to the station.
After rushing to the car, she finally arrived at the last minute. When she got on the car panting, she saw that comrade Chunhua was also on the car. The basket on the ground was empty, and there was only a piece of small floral fabric on her legs. Lu Wensheng glanced at it. Huh? It's the same as Bai Qian's bed sheet?
What did she say in the morning? Making clothes? Hahaha, if these clothes are really made, it will be a good show to watch based on Miss Bai's bad temper. I'm suddenly looking forward to it!
Chunhua looked at Lu Wensheng with disdain, as if she was mocking her for being such a poor girl and having the nerve to come to the city. She finally came here but didn't buy anything! As expected, not everyone loves to buy everything like she does.
Lu Wensheng didn't have time to pay attention to her, she was a little sleepy. He walked around her and sat in the back of the car. He could still take a nap in two hours, but he couldn't let some insignificant people ruin his mood.
"The peace brigade has arrived!"
When Lu Wensheng saw the car stopped, she jumped out swiftly and ran straight to the village chief's house. She wanted to find her "uncle" to determine the location and size of the homestead. The sooner it was built, the sooner she could move out.
She didn't want to pretend to be sleepwalking for a whole day. She originally wanted to go out for a walk every night and then go back by herself, but she didn't expect the new sister she met to be so supportive and actually go out with her every night.
She is just like this. She will never tolerate others' ill will towards her, but if someone is nice to her, she would want to pay them back a thousand times. She is afraid that if she makes trouble for her a few more times, her younger sister will be late for work during the day.
After all, she noticed Shen Lingling had dark circles under her eyes this morning...
"Uncle, aunt, are you home?"
Lu Wensheng was thinking about her worries all the way and unknowingly arrived at the village chief's house. When she saw that the door of Village Chief Li's house was open, she shouted at the top of her voice.
As the village chief's wife, Sun Caifeng did not need to go to work. After all, her family had five strong laborers who earned work points, so it made no difference whether she went or not. Instead of working hard in the fields and earning few work points, it would be better for her to stay at home and cook for the men, bring them water, etc., and also take care of her eldest daughter-in-law who was in confinement.
Just as she was about to go to the field to deliver mung bean soup to the old man, she heard someone calling her from outside. She subconsciously poked her head out of the kitchen and asked:
"Who is it?"
"Aunt Sun, it's me, Xiaolu."
When Sun Caifeng came out after wiping her hands, she saw Lu Wensheng peeking out of her door and said with a smile:
"Little Deer, come in quickly. Are you here to look for your uncle? He is working in the fields. Wait a minute, I will take you to find him."
Lu Wensheng didn't want to trouble Sun Caifeng. How could he bother her to make an trip in such hot weather? He was about to refuse.
Sun Caifeng saw what she meant and continued, "I'm just here to deliver the mung bean soup. You don't have to be polite."
Lu Wensheng was relieved when he heard that it was on the way, and said gratefully:
"Thank you very much, Auntie. I'll take it with you." Then he went into the house and came out with a bucket of mung bean soup.
Sun Caifeng saw that she was small but unexpectedly she was quite energetic, so she couldn't help but tease her:
"Little Deer, I didn't expect you to be so energetic! You look like a good worker!"
Lu Wensheng smiled but didn't say anything. She didn't want to be praised for being energetic. If she did that, how could she slack off at work...
The two chatted and laughed along the way and soon arrived at the field. The wheat had been harvested and everyone was planting corn. From a distance, they saw two old cows pulling a plow to plow the field. The team members in the field all looked listless and it seemed that they were suffering from the heat.
Thinking that I will have to do this job tomorrow...
Forget it, forget it, don’t think about it anymore, just enjoy one day at a time!
After Lu Wensheng followed Sun Caifeng to the group where the village chief was, he placed the mung bean soup under the big tree. Aunt Sun invited her son and daughter-in-law to drink the mung bean soup. Lu Wensheng was chatting with the village chief:
"Uncle, why don't you stay home and rest on such a hot day? You are so old, so don't compare yourself with my elder brother and other young people."
Village Chief Li actually didn't go to the fields. He was just strolling on the ridges of the fields to see if anyone was lazy. So when Lu Wensheng praised him, he wanted to teach the younger generation a lesson:
"If you want to know how hard it is, think about the 25,000-mile Long March. If you want to know how tiring it is, think about the old revolutionary veterans. Why should we be tired from doing such a small job? We should be content with the good life we have today. We should not be afraid of being tired.
You young people are just hypocritical. Besides, what do you mean by old age? I am still young!"
Seeing that he was still talking in a set way, Lu Wensheng thought that he was indeed worthy of being the old village chief, but he still had to flatter him:
"Yes, yes, uncle, you are right! We were born under the red flag and grew up in the spring breeze. We should carry forward the revolutionary spirit of not fearing hardship or fatigue. We, the younger generation, should learn from you and pay tribute to you!"
As he said this, he pretended to salute.
"Oh, that's right, young people should not be afraid of hardship!" The old village chief was obviously very impressed by this and looked at Lu Wensheng with great satisfaction.
"Are you here about the homestead?"
Seeing that they were finally getting to the point, Lu Wensheng nodded quickly: "Yes, yes, yes! I would like you to take me there to have a look."
Old Man Li put down the empty bowl in his hand and said to his eldest son, "Zhenguo, come with me to see Lu Zhiqing."
"Okay, Dad!" Li Zhenguo responded and followed his father to the educated youth point. Seeing this, Lu Wensheng immediately followed.
