Chapter 230 Autumn Wind Rises 2
Even his own brother didn't know the true relationship between Gu Ci and Lao Chu.
Song Laoer grumbled that he was too caring towards those people, and Secretary Song deliberately misled him, saying that he was loyal to the people who entrusted him with the task.
It’s just to prevent Gu Ci from being implicated.
Now even if you encounter problems, you can still help out.
Gu Ci felt warm in his heart: "Mom and Dad, I won't panic as long as you are here."
He was really glad that he could marry Chu Hong and have such good father-in-law and mother-in-law.
Nowadays in the countryside, it’s good enough to be able to fill your stomach.
But thanks to my father-in-law and mother-in-law, I have an easy job and can secretly help my grandfather and others.
My grandfather and his family of seven were given forty to fifty kilograms of broken rice every month.
He also knew that all the rice in the house was brought back by Chu Hong.
But if the father-in-law and mother-in-law were not generous, they would definitely have opinions when they saw Chu Hong spending so lavishly.
Chu Hong was also very generous and secretly gave some biscuits, candies, fruits, etc.
Even if he occasionally heard others call him a gigolo or a live-in son-in-law, he did not feel embarrassed. Instead, he thought that they were just saying the grapes were sour because they could not eat them.
While they were eating, Chu Hong, Chu Dan, and Xiao Yuer also got up.
Chu Hong disliked eating water spinach the most. Seeing the water spinach in the noodles made her lose her appetite: "Why water spinach again? Can we change it to pickled vegetables? And the green vegetables grown in the private plot should be ready to eat soon, right?"
Water spinach is a cheap vegetable, but it is very easy to grow and will grow again quickly even if you pinch it.
In the countryside, every household cannot finish eating all the water spinach. They simply cannot finish eating it all and have to cut it to feed the chickens and ducks.
Seeing that she didn't move her chopsticks, Gu Ci took all the water spinach in her bowl and put it in his own bowl, and whispered: "Okay, no more water spinach now, next time I'll make pickled vegetable noodles."
As for the vegetables in the family’s private plot, they are not even as tall as fingers and are not ready to be eaten yet.
Secretary Song couldn't bear it: "If you don't want to eat, then why don't you get up and cook it yourself? It's good enough to have something to eat, you are just picky."
Even if he was her own father, Chu Hong would not indulge him. Instead, she retorted: "Didn't you complain that the loofah was not tasty yesterday? Comrade Old Song, you only allow the officials to set fires but not the people to light lamps?"
Secretary Song was speechless.
Wu Xiu slowly said, "I'm already getting a headache from your noise early in the morning. If you keep talking nonsense, you won't be able to eat."
When the father and daughter heard this, they seemed to be silenced. They instantly became quiet and began to eat breakfast seriously.
This made Gu Ci, who was originally feeling a little uneasy, relax and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.
My mother-in-law is mighty.
After breakfast, Gu Ci had already washed the dishes diligently before going out to the farm.
In the farm, Lao Chu and the others were staying in the room over there, unable to hide their nervousness.
Originally, they should be cleaning at this time.
Just shovel all the chickens, ducks and rice fields together, then pick them up and bury them under the trees on the west mountain.
However, in order to deal with the joint defense teams, they haven't swept the floor for two days. There are chickens and ducks everywhere in the rice fields, and it feels like there is nowhere to step.
They will only start sweeping the floor when those people arrive, so that the dust will fly everywhere and hurt their eyes and noses.
I don't believe those people still have the energy to deal with them.
When Gu Ci saw the dirty scene in the bamboo-fenced farm from outside, he held his breath before daring to walk in.
He wore rain boots today on purpose, for fear that he might accidentally step on something.
Gu Ci walked into the room and saw that his grandfather and the others were all nervous. He pretended to be relaxed and comforted them: "Don't worry, my father-in-law is here, everything will be fine."
"We have so many chickens, ducks and geese at home, which is eye-catching enough. I think it will make them pay more attention to this."
He knew that in order to deal with those people, Secretary Song and the team leader discussed it and deliberately asked two families in the village not to send away the extra chickens and ducks.
It's used to shut them up.
Otherwise, if they really make a wasted trip, those people will probably be unwilling to accept it and will try to find something to do even if there is nothing to do.
Of course, this is also the tacit understanding among these villages, and they will leave three or five chickens and ducks.
Around ten o'clock in the morning, two tractors rumbled up to the drying yard of the village committee and stopped.
Party Secretary Song, who was wearing patched old clothes, had been waiting there for a long time. When he saw the fifteen or sixteen members of the joint defense team, both men and women, he smiled and greeted them: "Welcome leaders to our team to inspect our work. I am the party secretary of the team, and my last name is Song."
He also noticed that there was an acquaintance among the people who came this time.
It was last year when my blind little daughter was almost dating Wu Wei.
Wu Wei came with his father-in-law this time, and next to him was his current wife, who is also the daughter of Captain Li.
In fact, the team was originally led by Wu Wei’s biological father, Captain Wu, but his father still remembered that he almost suffered a loss when he came here last year.
He was deeply impressed: poverty and bad water produce unruly people.
He didn't want to come this time, so he made an excuse of having a high fever and didn't come.
The person leading the team became his relative.
This made Wu Wei unhappy. He didn't want to come. Why didn't his father say hello to him?
Even if the excuse of having a high fever doesn't work, you can still let me take him to the hospital and take care of him, right?
On the way, his father-in-law asked him if he had any impression of this place.
Fortunately, he was not stupid. He just said that this place was remote and he only had one impression: poor.
But his father-in-law patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Maybe this place was poor before, with no money."
"But this year we have a breeding farm here, so it will definitely not be a wasted trip."
Therefore, Captain Li now asked in an official tone: "What are the team members doing?"
"Most of the team members have started working. Now we have to plant autumn radishes and we have to weed and loosen the soil first." Secretary Song looked embarrassed and said, "We didn't know that the leaders would come to the countryside to inspect today, otherwise we would have asked everyone to stay and welcome the leaders."
Captain Li really didn't know that someone from the city government had already secretly leaked their whereabouts, and he really thought he could come here without anyone noticing.
He immediately said, "Labor is the most glorious, and field work is the most important. Secretary Song, please accompany us to start checking to see if any team members have secretly cut off the micro-ba."
The reason why Secretary Song was left behind was because we were afraid that he would inform the enemy.
Captain Li was still worried, so he winked at his daughter and son-in-law, asking them to keep an eye on the situation while he led his men to check from the village entrance.
Unfortunately, the villagers had made preparations, and after a lot of hard work, they discovered that only two families had an extra chicken and a duck.
Unfortunately, they didn't know that it was only because they knew they were coming that they locked the chickens and ducks in the chicken coop or the chicken pen. Otherwise, the chickens and ducks were usually free-range.
Captain Li was very dissatisfied with this result. He frowned and asked, "Where do those relocated personnel live?"
