The next day, as the morning light just flooded over the rice ears in the experimental field, he looked back at Dahei who was lying on the wall and warned him, "Take good care of the house and don't let your wife run away."
Dahei woofed and wagged his tail like a small flag.
The streets of the county town are much busier than those in the village. The sounds of bicycle bells and hawkers' shouts mix together, and exciting songs are playing in the streets and alleys.
Current affairs news will be broadcast from time to time.
The most talked about issue was the drought, and everyone was encouraged to find ways to overcome the difficulties.
Some people who have relatives in the countryside have already started preparing to go and live with them.
Those who have no connections will ask around where they can find food and water.
This day seems to be very lively, but there is already a hint of tension.
Zhao Wei first went to visit Captain Zhou, mainly to reminisce about the past and to get some information from all sides.
He lived in a small mountain village and hadn't been out for a long time, so he always wanted to find out about what was happening outside.
Captain Zhou was as busy as ever, so busy that he didn't even have time to drink a sip of water.
But when Zhao Wei came, he was always willing to take half an hour to talk to him in detail.
After finishing the work, he went to say hello to Erlaizi and the others, and then he went back to his own business.
This time, it was about his promotion and then getting stuck.
Zhao Wei had several opportunities to be transferred to the county town to be a clerk, but an invisible hand held him down and forced him to continue sitting in that position.
The person in charge of personnel transfers looked at him with some sympathy.
"Alas... I don't know who you have offended, but someone has blocked your path to promotion. You'd better resolve this matter, otherwise, I'm afraid your life will be..."
Zhao Si knew very well that this was what he had always longed for. He just wanted to stay in the village and live a free and easy life.
What's good about this city? Look at the people on the streets. When something happens, they panic like headless flies.
Not to mention that they don’t have money, even if they do have money, they are reluctant to spend it to live.
In this day and age, materials are extremely scarce. Where else can one find a village like theirs that can have a good harvest and enough food to eat?
Everyone wants to covet his piece of land and want to kick him away.
This man who uses his brain both openly and secretly has experienced a lot in recent days and has long been numb.
So what if those people dance happily? No one will know what kind of backing he has. At least he can keep himself safe and sound for ten years.
For him, promotion and wealth, which everyone envies, are not something he is not at all rare about.
However, he was still very grateful to this person for talking to him so much.
He just happily took some documents that needed to be delivered to the village and went to the supply and marketing cooperative.
This place is as crowded as ever.
Many of them come to buy rice, grain and oil.
Unfortunately, these are in limited supply and you can only buy a little every day.
However, the grocery area was deserted and no one was competing with him for food, which made it convenient for him to stroll around leisurely.
There were all kinds of canned food on the shelf, including oranges, yellow peaches, and apples, but there were no pineapples.
He asked the salesman, "Comrade, do you have canned pineapple?"
The salesperson shook his head and said, "It was sold out the day before yesterday. If you want it, you'll have to wait for half a month."
Zhao Wei was feeling disappointed when an old lady with a basket next to him interrupted and said, "You are... the young master of the Zhao family. Oh, I actually bumped into you here. This is really unexpected!"
Zhao Wei looked up and took a look at the other person. Wasn't this the Hong Gu who used to serve the old man and the old lady?
It is said that she had served the old man for her entire life. Later, when the old man got into trouble, she used Hong Gu to attack him, saying that he was living a luxurious capitalist life and yet had servants to take care of him.
As a last resort, Hong Gu had to resign and leave.
When they met again, the other person's eyes suddenly turned red when he looked at him.
"I went back to see my grandfather and mistress, but I didn't expect that they no longer lived in the compound."
"I haven't seen them anywhere else. I've been missing them these days."
…
Hong Gu is alone and has dedicated her entire life to the Zhao family. Although Yue Wei has never been taken care of by her, he still has a good impression of such an old man.
If Hong Gu had not noticed that he looked very much like the old grandfather when he was young, the family would not have been reunited.
So he said to her, "Auntie Hong, are you doing well these days? I haven't had time to visit you. I'm really too busy these days. Please forgive me."
Hong Gu shook her head and said, "Alas, living alone is neither good nor bad, but I am idle every day and always feel empty."
It can be heard that she still wants to go back to the old man.
Anyway, the old man and his companions are no longer at the center of power, and their former subordinates have all split up, so there is no one who can stop them from being together again.
"Good aunt, if you want to see Grandpa and the others, I can take you back now. If you like staying there, you can stay there forever and don't have to come back. What do you think?"
Hong Gu was a little surprised and asked, "Am I really that kind of person? Won't it harm Grandpa and the others?"
"Yes, of course, as long as you want, I can help you do it!"
"Okay, okay, if that's the case, that would be great. I'm willing to do it. I've never been separated from them for so long in my life. Life is so hard..."
