Chapter 30 Shamelessly Diving into His Arms
After all, work points mean money, and no one dares to be careless about this matter.
Zhou Yong walked out with the list, and coincidentally, he ran into team leader Li Ming.
"You came just in time. The list you recorded for Meng Er's family showed one person's work, so why did the Meng family report two people's work?"
Li Ming took the list handed over by Zhou Yong, glanced at it, and immediately frowned and fell into thought.
Zhou Yong did not disturb Li Ming, and it was a while before he spoke.
"Meng Laosi is a jerk who only knows how to take advantage of others. Meng Er did the work that day. I remember it clearly. Meng Laosi didn't go at all..."
Li Ming's words were firm and decisive, exactly what Zhou Yong thought.
Because it was not the first time that the Meng family had done such a thing, it cannot be said that Zhou Yong and Li Ming were used to it. The main reason was that everyone knew what kind of people these brothers were.
Zhou Yong asked about other workers who had made mistakes. Li Ming stared at the names of the Qin family members and said, "Qin Laoliu went to work that day. I remember he was working in the same group as Liu Fa. I guess I left him behind..."
In the above situation, you need to find someone who works in the same group to testify before work points can be recorded.
After checking the items on the list, Li Ming handed Zhou Yong a list of people to work for today.
“These are the people who are working today.”
Zhou Yong took it and Li Ming turned around to do his own thing.
After collecting the work list given to him by Li Ming, Zhou Yong left the team.
He went to Meng's house first, and after some verification, he found out that Meng Laosi did not go to work that day, but slept at home.
Zhou Yong said nothing and went to Qin's house to find Qin Laoliu.
When people started working, they immediately reported the names of their group members.
Zhou Yong went to find the workers in the same group to verify what happened. Only after confirming that it was true did he give Qin Laoliu work points.
After walking around for a while, it was already past five o'clock. After coming out of the last house, Zhou Yong went straight to the brigade.
After recording the accounts, Zhou Yong stretched. When he was about to close the work book, Li Baotian walked in with his hands behind his back.
"You haven't finished your work yet?"
"Dad, I'm done. I'll be home soon."
Li Baotian nodded: "Then I'll wait for you outside."
Zhou Yong responded, put the work notebook back into the drawer, locked it, kept the key, and left.
The father-in-law and son-in-law walked out of the brigade yard slowly, and Lao Gao blocked their way.
"Village Chief, can I have a word with you?"
It was just after get off work, and many people in the team were coming in and out, so the yard was not a place to talk.
Li Baotian knew why Lao Gao came, and he said with a smile: "Lao Gao, you came at the right time. Congratulations, your application for a place to return home has been approved..."
For a moment, Lao Gao's eyes turned red with excitement. He was afraid that he was hallucinating, so he confirmed it again.
Li Baotian looked at Lao Gao and said, "Look at how promising you are. Come with me. You have completed the procedures for returning home. You can go back anytime..."
Lao Gao cried. He wiped his tears and said with a choked voice: "Village Chief, thank you so much. I don't know what to say..."
Zhou Yong looked at Li Baotian and Lao Gao's departing backs. He looked toward the horizon and murmured to himself, "Lao Gao, I wish you all the best."
Lao Gao was a member of the first group of educated youth who went to the countryside. He suffered a lot and endured a lot. Now that he can return home as he wished, it is a new beginning for him.
Zhou Yong silently gave his blessing, and soon Li Baotian and Lao Gao came back.
Lao Gao went back happily. Li Baotian said with a smile: "Now that Lao Gao is gone, I'm afraid we won't have the chance to meet again in this life..."
Zhou Yong glanced at Li Baotian, who looked a little sad: "Dad, all good things must come to an end."
Li Baotian nodded, with a sigh in his tone: "Yes! It's better for him to leave, so that he won't be trapped here..."
Zhou Yong and Li Baotian were talking as they walked home. When they arrived home, Zhang Guifang and Li Caiyun had already prepared dinner.
"Is Lao Gao leaving tomorrow?"
Li Baotian and Zhang Guifang talked about Lao Gao's return home.
"Yes. Lao Gao's mother is seriously ill, and he is afraid that he will be too late to see his mother for the last time..."
Zhang Guifang sighed: "There are still some mushrooms in the warehouse. You can send them to Lao Gao later. It's a little gift from our family..."
Li Baotian nodded: "Okay, I'll go after dinner."
Zhang Guifang was talking to her husband as they carried food to the kang table in the room, and soon the four of them were sitting around the table.
They had dinner with the leftovers from lunch, with rice as the staple food. Zhang Guifang put a piece of chicken into Zhou Yong's bowl.
"Mom, eat it."
"Mom wants to eat, but the problem is that my teeth are not in good condition."
The chicken was stewed until it was soft and boneless, but Zhang Guifang was reluctant to eat it and made up an excuse.
Zhou Yong passed the chicken in the bowl to Li Caiyun. Li Baotian said, "Why are you passing a piece of chicken back and forth?"
Zhang Guifang glared at her man, Li Caiyun looked at Zhou Yong, and gave the chicken in the bowl to her father.
Li Baotian didn't eat it, but gave the chicken to Zhang Guifang. The four of them looked at each other and suddenly laughed.
"When did our family become so humble?"
Li Baotian smiled and muttered to himself.
Zhang Guifang smiled and continued, "Hasn't our family always been like this?"
Because before, no matter who picked up food for Zhou Yong, he would refuse it, but he would never pick up the food in his bowl and give it to Li Caiyun.
Zhou Yong thought back to what had happened. As decades had passed, many things were blurred in his memory.
He can only remember some big things or things that left a deep impression on him.
Zhou Yong was thinking about these things and accidentally bit the tip of his tongue. He hissed in pain and put down his bowl and chopsticks.
"Why are you so careless? Are you okay?"
Zhou Yong shook his head. Li Caiyun got down from the ground and soon came into the house with a bucket of cold water.
He rinsed his mouth and spat out a lot of blood foam. Li Baotian joked to his son-in-law: "If you are greedy, just say it. Why bite your tongue?"
Zhou Yong looked at his father-in-law with a smile on his face. Zhang Guifang said, "Tomorrow we will make dumplings stuffed with chives and eggs..."
Even though it’s just a meal of dumplings, most people can’t eat it unless it’s Chinese New Year.
Zhou Yong felt warm in his heart as he listened to his mother-in-law's words. Li Caiyun got on the kang, and everyone continued to eat.
They had a very enjoyable meal. After the meal, Li Baotian took about five pounds of mushrooms to Lao Gao's place, while Zhang Guifang packed up and went to her sister-in-law's house.
Zhou Yong was not idle either. He was writing and drawing in the west room, planning his way to wealth. Li Caiyun quietly accompanied him by sewing shoe soles.
Before he knew it, it was eight o'clock. Zhou Yong stretched his stiff neck and his butt which was bothering him from sitting.
Li Caiyun yawned: "Are you done?"
Zhou Yong hadn't finished his work. Seeing that it was already eight o'clock, he smiled and said, "I'm done."
Li Caiyun put the soles of her shoes into the sewing basket, and Zhou Yong tidied up the papers and pens on the kang table.
The couple washed their feet and went to bed. Zhou Yong's mind was full of making money. Li Caiyun looked at him and shamelessly got into his arms.
Zhou Yong was very considerate and tucked the corners of the quilt for his young wife. He patted her shoulder with one hand and said in a tone that sounded like coaxing a child: "Go to sleep!!"
Li Caiyun: “…?”
What's his tone?
Do you treat yourself as a child?
No, this is not the problem I should be worrying about right now. How should I hint to him that his period has come?
