Chapter 168: Stop playing tricks, or I'll beat you up too
Ge Xiulan looked unhappy: "Village head, why are we sending more educated youth to our village?"
Village chief Deng Huaiming was naturally unwilling to accept these children who were too weak to carry, but this was a political task from above, so what could he say? "We will follow the arrangements made by the commune, and you have reservations."
After the mule finished eating the feed in his hand and kicked its hooves for a while, Deng Huaiming started to call out to everyone: "Come on, sit tight, let's go back to the village."
If the commune was not far from their village, the village chief would not have let them all get on the bus. It would be a waste of time if it tired out the village mules.
As soon as those educated youth got on the bus, Liu Jiandong had been staring at a female educated youth in a daze. If Ge Xiulan hadn't noticed that her son's expression was not right and touched him lightly, he would have been embarrassed.
As soon as they entered the village, they heard someone say, "They're back, they're back. The Shangang couple is back with their son."
"Now there's another good show to watch. Many people from the Ge family came today."
As expected, as soon as he finished speaking, he heard an angry roar: "Liu Shanliang, where's the money?"
Liu Shanliang glanced at his son on the mule cart and said, "Send my son back first, and I'll give you the money later."
Ge Shuanhu grabbed him and said, "Stop playing tricks, or I'll beat you up too."
After all, they were from the same village. Some people couldn't bear to see this and came up to help, which allowed Liu Jiandong to be carried on Liu Shangang's back.
Ge Xiulan followed her husband and protected her son as they walked forward.
When she passed by her elder brother Ge Shuanhu, she didn't even look at him. After this incident, she gave up on her mother's family.
After they settled Liu Jiandong, the Liu family's door was surrounded by people again.
Liu Shangang didn't waste any time and asked Ge Xiulan to call the branch secretary and the village chief, and asked the Ge family to write a receipt in front of them before handing over the three hundred yuan.
Ge Shuanhu took the money, glanced at Ge Xiulan standing opposite, and shouted, "Go home."
He went to Gelizhuang without looking back.
I was still waiting for a while, but I was disappointed with the villagers: "Did Shangang really borrow money?"
"You are just talking nonsense. Didn't you see Ge Shuanhu counting money with his spit just now?"
"Where do you think the Shangang couple got so much money?"
"I don't know. I just borrowed it from someone."
"With his family's current reputation, who would dare to lend them money?"
As people were discussing, they saw Xia Qiu and Qiu Shaofeng coming over: "Aunt, what happened?"
"Hey, Xia Qiu brought your man back?"
"Well, I just finished my work at the farm and came back to see my dad."
"Your family now has hope."
As he said that, he pointed to the end of the village and said, "See? Your new house is built at the end of the village. It's all made of blue bricks and tiles."
Chu Xue walked out of the yard: "Sister, brother-in-law, you are here, come in quickly."
"Xue, how has Dad been these days?"
"Very good, Dad is in the room, you can go in and see for yourself."
When Xia Qiu saw the man, he was stunned for a moment: "Dad, why do you look fatter than before?"
Liu Shanliang laughed: "Your sister has been preparing delicious food for me. You are sitting here without moving. You must have gained some weight."
Qiu Shaofeng took out the canned food and brown sugar and put them on the kang, then handed the meat to his mother-in-law who was standing beside him: "Dad, how do you feel about your legs these days?"
Liu Shanliang smiled and pointed at the edge of the kang, asking him to sit down: "It's not as swollen as before. Sometimes I raise it up and down on purpose, and it doesn't hurt as much as before."
Mother Liu looked at the meat in her hand and said, "You said you would come over, so why are you spending so much money?"
She wasn't just being polite to them, she was really worried that her daughter's in-laws would be unhappy.
Qiu Shaofeng saw his mother-in-law's worry and said, "My grandmother prepared this for me. You can keep it. My father-in-law needs nutrition right now."
Chu Xue smiled and continued, "Dad has been feeding me recently. I guess he's getting enough nutrition. He's indeed a little fatter than before. It's pleasing to look at."
