When Lu Wensheng got home, Meng Qingtang and Han Muchen had already gotten up. The two of them stayed up a little late last night, so now each of them had a big dark circle under their eyes, which looked quite funny.
After breakfast, they set off for the brigade headquarters. Although they arrived not late, Li Zhenguo had already harnessed the ox cart and was waiting for them at the brigade headquarters.
It was the same Brother Niu from last time. Perhaps because he had drunk the spiritual spring water, Brother Niu seemed particularly close to Lu Wensheng when he saw him. He pulled a ox cart and ran to Lu Wensheng to ask for a touch.
Li Zhenguo was a little dumbfounded after seeing this scene. This old cow was the most arrogant cow in the village. It could be said that almost all the calves in the team were bred by him.
Normally he wouldn't even let anyone touch him, but now he's taking the initiative to get close to Xiaolu. It seems that Xiaolu is indeed the treasure of the team as his father said.
Thinking of this, Li Zhenguo hurried forward to greet the three people:
"Xiao Lu and Xiao Shen are here? Good morning, Brother Cheng!"
"Good morning, bro~"
Lu Wensheng and Shen Lingling replied with a smile, and Chen Cheng also smiled and nodded to him.
Lu Wensheng touched Brother Niu's head and said:
"Brother, we'll leave first then. We may be back later in the afternoon."
“Okay, be careful on the road. If it’s cold, find a place to rest in the wind before coming back.
If you really can't come back, you can go back tomorrow morning." Li Zhenguo said worriedly.
He also took out 10 yuan and a few letters of introduction from his pocket and handed them to Lu Wensheng, saying:
"Your uncle asked me to give this to you. Keep it for lunch. If you have a chance, treat the mushroom spawn seller to a meal."
Then he took out another twenty yuan and handed it to her: "This is for mushroom seeds. Just buy a little, we have limited space.
If it’s not enough, you can use it first, and I’ll give it to you when you come back.”
Lu Wensheng nodded and asked Shen Lingling and Chen Cheng to get on the ox cart together:
"Don't worry, bro. I know everything."
After saying that, he drove the old cow away. Looking at the flat and wide road ahead, Lu Wensheng couldn't help but sigh in his heart:
This newly built road is so easy to walk on!
As the saying goes, if you want to be rich, have fewer children and build more roads. Now that Ping'an Brigade has this smooth road, they are not far from getting rich.
————————————
Brother Niu drank spiritual spring water twice along the way and it took him three or four hours to reach the county town.
As there were many residents around the county town, Lu Wensheng and his friends could not put the old cow into the space, so they had to rush into the county town.
As soon as you enter, you will see the new eye-catching words written on the wall:
"Women hold up half the sky and change the landscape"
"Break the old habit of 'hibernating' and vigorously carry out basic construction of farmland"
"Learn from Dazhai and catch up with Dazhai"
“…”
Wait~
Lu Wensheng looked at these eye-catching slogans and clicked his tongue. He muttered to Shen Lingling beside him:
"It has to be the county, the slogans are all written extra red."
Shen Lingling followed her gaze and agreed with a smile:
"That's exactly what happened."
When we arrived at the most prosperous area of the county, the streets became even more lively.
Anyway, it was nothing serious, so Lu Wensheng drove the old cow straight to the department store. She wanted to buy some new fabrics to make clothes for Han Muchen, Lu Hao and others to wear during the New Year.
Shen Lingling wanted to go to the post office first to send letters and remit money to her family. She had to send all the money that Shengsheng gave her back home.
So the two decided to act separately. After Lu Wensheng dropped Shen Lingling off at the entrance of the post office, he pointed to the department store opposite and said:
"I'm going to walk around the building. Just come find me when I'm done."
"good!"
Lu Wensheng found an old man selling things at a stall outside the department store and gave him two cents:
"Uncle, could you please watch the bullock cart for me? I'm going in to buy something."
The old man was selling some homemade items. Seeing this great opportunity to make money, he was naturally very happy:
"Okay, okay, go ahead, young comrade. I'll definitely take good care of the cows for you."
After a while, Shen Lingling came over after sending the letter. When she found Lu Wensheng, she was bargaining with someone. Shen Lingling joined the bargaining without saying a word.
So, in the department store, while the two female comrades were shopping all the way, Chen Cheng came out carrying a lot of bags. If you didn’t know, you would think they were moving.
"Shengsheng, do we want to go to the state-owned restaurant for lunch?"
Lu Wensheng was also struggling with this question: "Do you think we should go to the state-owned restaurant or go directly to Uncle Xiaoxie's house?"
As the three were hesitating, they suddenly heard a noise in front of them.
It turned out that there was someone performing juggling nearby. Chen Cheng and the other two curiously went over to watch. They saw the artist throwing and catching several bowls in the air with ease, and there was also someone breathing fire, riding a unicycle, and breaking rocks with his chest, which drew cheers from the crowd.
"What are you doing?"
Suddenly, there was a burst of shouting and cursing in the distance, and the jugglers here hurriedly packed up their things and prepared to run away, especially the one with the stone broken on his chest. He didn't even want the stone anymore, just put on his clothes and ran forward.
Wow, that level of proficiency is heartbreaking!
Lu Wensheng and his companions looked back and saw a group of people wearing red armbands, who were probably here to arrest them. Seeing a few jugglers running into the alley in an instant, Lu Wensheng and his companions didn't even bother to go to the state-owned restaurant.
Without saying a word, he caught the ox cart and ran towards Lu Xie's house. It would be fun if he was caught by mistake!
"Stop, what are you guys doing?!"
Just as they were about to leave, they met a man with a red armband who was interrogating them ferociously.
Before Lu Wensheng could speak, Chen Cheng responded first: "Comrade, we just finished shopping and are about to go home."
As he spoke, he pointed to the department store opposite.
"If you have nothing to do, leave now. Things are not peaceful these days. Stay out of the streets."
The man with the red armband first took a look at the large and small packages of things on the oil truck, and seeing that these people looked like they could not be provoked, he cursed a few words and ran away.
There were so many things on the ox cart that he was jealous. He knew without a doubt that there must be someone with connections behind him, so it would be better for him not to get involved.
Tnnd, recently this group of jugglers have been walked like thin dogs by them. They run faster than rabbits every day and disappear into the alleys.
Lu Wensheng:……
It turns out that this group of people are habitual offenders!
Shen Lingling pointed to the large bluestone standing alone in the middle of the road and asked:
"Shengsheng, should we take this back? I think it can be used to pickle some sauerkraut or something."
Lu Wensheng: "..."
That's exactly what I meant!
