Chapter 176 Virtuous
If they weren't real relatives, how could they be so generous?
Now we meet by chance again on the black market, so is it okay to come to my relative's house for a meal?
She was very glad that she came along, and she no longer had to worry about fabrics in the future.
Only then did Mr. and Mrs. He have the chance to express their gratitude.
They have also been keeping an eye on the follow-up of the incident on the train, and took the opportunity to tell them that the police have followed the clues and arrested a number of people.
Although there are a few that slip through the net, there is no need to worry too much.
Chu Hong became even more worried after hearing this: Generally, only those fish that slip through the net will cause trouble, so we have to be cautious.
Because the cloth Chu Hong bought was first lent to the He family, it would not be noticeable when she returned, but she was still forced to bring some peach cakes, biscuits and some cherries given by He's grandparents.
The cherries nowadays are not big, they are all old varieties, and the taste is a bit sweet and sour.
Gu Ci ate a few grains but found them too sour. People who like sweet and sour food will think they taste good, such as Chu Hong and Cao Li.
When I returned to the dormitory, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon.
Cao Li went to talk to her aunt, and before leaving, she said to Chu Hong: "Do you want to take a shower today? If so, I'll boil some more water later."
With Aunt Liu around, it's very convenient to boil water, it just costs some firewood.
Most of the male comrades like Gu Ci were hot-tempered and started taking cold showers this day.
Chu Hong did not reject her kindness: "Okay, then I'll trouble you to boil more water."
Then he said to her, "By the way, call Gu Ci over for me."
According to regulations, male comrades are not allowed to enter the female dormitory, but now there are only her and Cao Li in the female dormitory.
Now that Cao Li is out, it’s okay to let Gu Ci come over and stay for a while.
Cao Li was also very happy. She felt that Chu Hong was close to her, which was why she was so rude.
Another saw through her and teased, "I've been with you for most of the day, but I'm still reluctant to leave. I'm really fed up with you. Okay, okay, I'll give you my place and come back in an hour."
After saying that, he simply took away the towel, washbasin, soap, and clothes to change, to make room for them so that they could talk.
Chu Hong's face turned red, and she muttered silently: "Cao Li's thoughts are so dirty?"
If Cao Li knew, she would definitely cry out for injustice. After all, she thought they just wanted to talk and never thought about what else they would do in broad daylight.
After all, Cao Li is now a single, pure lesbian.
Chu Hong waited for Gu Ci to come in and immediately locked the door. She was afraid that he would have wild thoughts, so she immediately spoke first: "Let's sew all the money and jewelry into my quilt."
Gu Ci sat down obediently and started threading the needle.
This is a new skill he has just learned.
After all, he didn't need to touch these things before. It was only after he went to the countryside and his buttons fell off or the thread came untied that he started to learn.
Maybe he was more talented. After marrying Chu Hong, with Chu Tong's guidance, his sewing skills became better than Chu Hong's.
The sleeves of Chu Hong's clothes were torn and they were crooked like a worm crawling.
But Gu Ci was able to make the stitches smooth.
He felt that his wife was very considerate of him and was in a hurry to close the door because he didn't want others to see him doing sewing work.
If Chu Hong knew what he was thinking at the moment, she would also say: You think too much, what they are going to do cannot be seen by anyone.
Chu Hong put the money in the cloth bag first: "Sew all the five hundred yuan in."
Before I left, my family prepared a cloth bag for me, which was similar to an envelope. After stuffing the money in it, I just needed to sew one side to seal it completely.
Gu Ci said, "Can you lend me a hundred first?"
"I want to buy some food and needles and thread from here and send them to my uncle."
After saying that, he glanced at Chu Hong's face with an unconcealed nervousness.
One hundred yuan is not a small amount of money nowadays, and he was a little worried that Chu Hong would be reluctant to spend it.
But Chu Hong agreed immediately: "You are very thoughtful. This is what you should do."
I earned 600 today, and later I gave 100 to buy some jewelry, so I only have 500 left.
Now she counted out ten for Gu Ci, and only four hundred were left.
But they also brought some money from home when they came out, and Gu Ci also bought chickens and eggs today, so there probably won't be much left.
She took out a few big unity notes from her trouser pocket and counted out four to him: "Buy more, and tell me if it's not enough. Anyway, our biggest gain is these jewelry."
She sincerely felt that having these jewels had made her a fortune, just like winning the lottery jackpot.
But Gu Ci didn't take her words seriously.
Now gold and silver cannot be traded openly, and are less precious than grain.
If all the money is really spent, even if Chu Hong doesn't care, my father-in-law and mother-in-law will probably consider changing their son-in-law.
So he smiled and said, "I asked when I bought the pancakes this morning. The food coupons here are 1.7 yuan per pound for flour and 1.4 yuan per pound for rice."
"Rice without tickets is 25 cents a pound, and flour is 30 cents a pound."
"I was thinking of buying some flour and rice to send over, and also buying some common medicines and daily necessities to send over, and also telling them about our study here."
Gu Ci expressed his own thoughts: "The reservoir has to be at the foot of the mountain. Even if it is reclaimed, it will not be good farmland. It is better to do breeding."
Especially since he had studied here before, he knew that the courses here were not difficult compared to them.
And if you can convince the leaders in the reservoir, they will most likely send your uncle and aunt here to study.
Of course, it would be more to his liking if they went to Lingxia Village and learned from them.
Even if the idea of engaging in aquaculture cannot impress the leaders in the reservoir, it can let them know that they have connections. If they can come out to study now, who knows what their future may be.
In addition, sending a large amount of things over there can make them a little more fearful and also allow them to eat better.
After Chu Hong finished listening, she gave him a thumbs up and said, "Not bad, you are thoughtful."
But I sighed in my heart: looking at the sunny and gentle little handsome boy, his mind is as cunning as a sieve.
But it's better to be scheming than to be naive.
Then I thought that if he hadn't worried about it, I would have been the one worrying.
At the beginning, Chu Hong just wanted to take care of Chu Chu.
After getting along for a long time, she couldn't ignore the existence of not only the Chu family, but also Grandma Jia, Grandpa Jin and others.
In particular, Grandma Jia took the trouble to take care of her family's health and taught them some pharmacology from time to time.
It was not only because of the Song family's care for them, but also because she was afraid that one day she would close her eyes and these proven effective folk remedies would disappear with her death.
Chu Hong thought about this and said regretfully, "I didn't have time to visit the two places Lao Jin mentioned today."
Gu Ci sewed seriously and did not forget to reply to her: "Let's not rush. Let's wait until the exam results here come out before we go."
Then he said to her, "By the way, I also heard that there will be other comrades coming to study in the next two days."
