Chapter 237 Director August 10 smiled helplessly: "They can't come out again."
"Even if you can come out, it's better not to come out."
He needed help now, so he didn't mind telling her something: "Around October, the city won't be peaceful, so you should avoid going to the black market. It will probably take some time for the crackdown to take place."
Chu Hong's face fell: "They really have nothing better to do than to show off their presence."
"That's right," the director agreed. "We can't control it even if we want to. We can only avoid the sharp edge for now."
After that, he stuffed the money and tickets into her hands and said, "If your village has rice, flour, etc., just buy them from the village, it will save trouble."
Even if Chu Hong was not happy, she did not dare to refuse and could only joke: "Director, aren't you afraid that I will take advantage of this opportunity to enrich myself?"
"Haha, Comrade Xiao Song, I have always been optimistic about you." The director praised her and said, "You are also very conscious. We always remember that you went through a lot of trouble to get the approval for five tractors for the development of the city."
"When we can get more tractors in the future, we will definitely arrange a tractor for your village."
Although I know it will take a long time for what he said to come true, it is still a good thing after all.
Besides, the director has brought the father and daughter into the same boat and will definitely take better care of them in the future.
So Chu Hong said goodbye happily.
After she left, the director shook his head and sighed, "At such a young age, it's rare that she can resist asking anything."
He actually thought she would ask who was secretly helping the two adults and one child, and even made up a fictitious person?
Chu Hong is naturally an intelligent person, and knowing too much is not necessarily a good thing.
She came to the gate and soon saw Gu Ci coming over on a bicycle.
"You didn't wait too long, did you?" Gu Ci stopped beside her, gave her a faint smile, and whispered, "We bought the meat. Let's have dumplings tonight."
I have to say that he has handsome features and his smile makes people feel like spring breeze.
Chu Hong glanced at the backpack on the side of the back seat of the car and saw that it was stuffed with straw. She didn't look through the backpack, but patted his back and said, "You are really lucky. Let's go again and buy more things."
On the way to the black market, he whispered what the director had entrusted to him.
Gu Ci also sighed after hearing this: "I originally wanted to have less contact with them, but I didn't expect that I couldn't avoid them."
"Fortunately, there aren't many of us here, so if we're careful we won't be discovered."
"I'll just send it to them later."
He was taking precautionary measures as he didn't want his wife to have much contact with other men.
Although he believed that Chu Hong and himself were true love, in his heart, Chu Hong was too kind and soft-hearted, which was why she took care of her grandfather and others from the very beginning.
But he doesn't want Chu Hong to be so nice to others.
Chu Hong didn't know what he was thinking, so she was relieved: "Comrade Xiao Gu, you are really becoming more and more considerate, aren't you?"
Gu Ci rode his bicycle, carrying his beloved woman, listening to her praising him, and riding on the street, feeling that he had reached the peak of his life.
Maybe because tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, the black market is particularly busy today. It’s already past nine o’clock, and there is still a lot of meat on the two meat stalls.
Unfortunately, people nowadays prefer to eat fatty meat, and the pork fat that Chu Hong wanted to buy was long gone.
Chu Hong could only choose a piece of lean meat with half of the fat attached: "Comrade, I want this piece."
Almost at the same time, someone next to him said the same thing.
Chu Hong looked at the person who was speaking and found that it was Aunt He.
Aunt He was a little surprised and a little embarrassed to see Chu Hong. She forced a smile and greeted her, "Xiao Song, I haven't seen you for a long time. Are you all right? My old lady has been thinking about you. Come over and visit us when you have time."
The butcher had already tied the meat with straw and weighed it: "Two catties and three ounces, no ticket needed, one dollar and four cents a catty, three dollars and twenty-two cents."
Then he looked at them and asked, "Who wants it?"
Chu Hong likes to take the initiative, so she took out the money quickly, counted it and handed it to him, and smiled at Aunt He: "Aunt, it's not easy for us to come out, please give me this piece of meat."
Even if Aunt He was unhappy, she had already paid the money and had the meat in her hands, so what else could she do?
So I could only force a smile and say, "Okay, I'll come back tomorrow morning to buy it."
But in his heart, he was glad that his son and Chu Dan broke up.
When Chu Dan was working as a nanny in the He family, she heard that Chu Hong's current husband had married a son-in-law and that his family would send him money every month.
That must be the reason why the Song family was willing to buy so much meat.
If his son and Chu Dan got together, he would definitely have to subsidize the Song family.
Chu Hong smiled at her and said, "Thank you, Auntie. We'll go back first. See you later."
She thought that although they were unlikely to have any dealings in the future, there was no need to fall out.
Chu Hong and Gu Ci walked around and bought some apricots, abacus dates, peaches and plums.
I didn't forget to ask him: "Most of those fruit trees have survived. They should be able to bear fruit next year, right?"
Gu Ci nodded: "Yes, several orange trees have also borne fruit this year, but they may lack nutrients and cannot bear fruit."
"I think we should go again next year and learn more from the teachers."
Chu Hong thought the journey was too hard, so she didn't want to go. She said to him, "You have a better memory than me, and you like studying more. If there is only one spot, then you go."
Her bright eyes looked at him as she said this, and it was absolutely sincere, which moved Gu Ci beyond words.
How could he have deserved to meet such a good wife who cared so much about him?
He immediately said, "It's okay. How about trying to get it from the director?"
"As long as the chickens and ducks at my farm can lay eggs and I can see profits, they will definitely make some concessions."
Chu Hong had nothing to say, so she patted him on the back and said, "Okay, let's go to the state-owned restaurant and have a bowl of noodles before going home."
She got up too early and ran around everywhere. The bowl of noodles she had in the morning was not enough to satisfy her hunger. She thought her chest was sticking to her back.
Gu Ci looked at the full backpack and basket, and really didn't dare to delay outside, so he coaxed her in a low voice: "We have too many things today, it's not appropriate for others to see us, how about we come back to eat delicious food next time, and eat some fruits and biscuits to fill our stomachs on the way?"
Chu Hong thought about it and said, "I'll do as you say."
When they got home, Chu Dan was already cooking. Seeing them coming in with bags, she cheered, "Did you buy a lot of delicious food today?"
She picked up a Mai Li, wiped it on her clothes and put it in her mouth. Then her face wrinkled up: "This Mai Li is not sweet enough."
Although I was disgusted, I couldn't help but pick two more red ones.
Chu Hong said, "I'm not asking you to eat it now. The plums and apples will become sweet and soft after being placed in the jar for a few days."
