Chapter 177 New Educated Youth?
The two brothers were right in the end for going crazy, and it was completely within their expectations.
Liu Sanchuan learned from this trip that the reputation of the old Liu family was not affected at all, nor were the family members. The only impact was on the marriage of his two brothers, and no one talked about other aspects, nor did they want to talk about them.
Recently, there are only two main characters in the gossips circulating outside, Liu Erjiang and Liu Sanchuan, and Cheng Yunxiao is occasionally mentioned, but only in private.
Because Ning Xiuyun would lead the team to make clothes to earn money to supplement their lives, Liu Sanchuan worked in a state-owned hotel after all, and Liu Qinghe worked in a supply and marketing cooperative, which could more or less bring benefits to everyone.
So these people would only talk about the brothers' strange habits in private, and no one would say bad things about their parents, relatives and elders at home, let alone say anything in a sarcastic way.
This is really a great joy for the two brothers of the Liu family.
"That's about it, don't you think it's a good thing? Finally, we can resume our peaceful life. Dad's saying about making a fortune quietly is true." Liu Sanchuan shook his head and sighed.
"That's great. It's been freezing these days, and I can't sharpen my knife."
Liu Erjiang put the grindstone back to its original position and breathed a sigh of relief: "These people are simply too crazy."
Ning Xiuyun stepped on the sewing machine with a cloth in her hand, raised her head and smiled, and continued: "In our countryside, it's a great thing to be able to go to town and have a formal job. You are not married, so you are golden buns in the eyes of others. Who doesn't want to live a good life?"
Liu Qingshan was holding a basket of beans and choosing:
"The third brother will go to town to work tomorrow, so you can go and call your younger sister back. You will miss her after not seeing her for a few days. Now that you have some peace and quiet, you can come back and stay for a few days. The New Year is coming soon, and it's more lively at home. It's just right that I use the stone mill to grind some beans to make tofu pudding and tofu, and you can eat them when you come back."
"Okay, Dad." Liu Sanchuan drooled at the thought of the fresh and delicious tofu pudding mixed with chopped green onions and chili sauce, and ran actively to the place where the stone mill was placed: "Dad, I'll go and clean the stone mill for you first, and then grind the beans after it is cleaned."
Liu Erjiang went to take the dustpan in his hand: "I'll pick the beans."
"Okay, pick them cleanly. Pick out the rotten beans, mud, and stones for me. There can't be any impurities. I'll go see how Yunxiao's fishing is going, and see if I can make fish stew with tofu tomorrow."
Liu Qingshan was happy to be clean, and walked out with his hands in his pockets. When he walked out, he just saw Cheng Yunxiao walking in with a fish basket.
He waved the fish basket happily: "Uncle, we've come back from fishing. There are more than ten crucian carps. That should be enough for us to eat. If not, I can go fishing again. I've seen a lot of people go fishing by the river recently, and they've had good catches."
"Let me see."
Liu Qingshan trotted over and saw that the crucian carps in it were about the size of three or four fingers, jumping around in them. He was so happy that he patted Cheng Yunxiao on the shoulder:
"Hey, you are really good at fishing, really good. Let's go, keep the fish in the bucket first, just enough for tomorrow's meal. Tomorrow morning, we will go fishing together again. Catch some small fish and coat them with flour and fry them. Let's go into the house first, and have dinner soon."
Liu Qingshan took Cheng Yunxiao to the kitchen and poured the fish in the fish basket into the wooden bucket. Cheng Yunxiao was left to have dinner, and after dinner, the brothers went to grind beans.
The next day, Liu Xinghe received the news from his third brother, knowing that the wave of dating had passed, and packed up after work and went home happily for dinner.
She and Liu Shiyu agreed to ride back together. The two sisters chatted while riding. Halfway through the ride, they met the captain. The captain was an elder of their Liu family, so of course they had to stop when they saw him.
Liu Xinghe patted the back seat: "Uncle, we have to go to the town to meet up. Get in. I'll give you a ride. It's very cold. Let's go back early and have a hot dinner early."
"Xinghe, uncle won't ride today." The captain pointed to a man and a woman who were a few steps behind him: "Look, there are two new educated youth. If I leave, they won't be able to find the way."
Liu Xinghe glanced at the two people behind who were carrying large and small bags. When the female comrade saw them stop the car, her eyes lit up and she ran over panting.
She asked the captain curiously in a low voice: "Why are there still new educated youth coming when the New Year is almost here? Don't they stay at home for the New Year before coming back? The Educated Youth Office is not so unreasonable."
"That's right. I don't know what they are doing here now. The food has been distributed, and everything has been distributed. These two came at a really bad time. I heard that they came early voluntarily. I don't know what they were thinking."
The captain shrugged his shoulders and was helpless about this. He disliked the educated youth coming to the team the most. Every time they came, it was troublesome. They always caused problems of one kind or another, which was very frustrating.
The captain waved to Liu Xinghe and Liu Shiyu: "You go first, don't worry about us."
"Then we'll go first, uncle."
Liu Xinghe stepped on the pedal of the bicycle and rode forward for a distance, but found that Liu Shiyu was standing there without moving. She slowed down and turned around and shouted: "What are you doing Shiyu, let's go."
"Wait..."
The female educated youth behind them shouted at them and ran over with things in her hands.
Liu Shiyu suddenly came to his senses, pedaled his bike, and rushed out like an arrow. In the blink of an eye, he ran in front of Liu Xinghe. Liu Shiyu's voice was heard in the wind: "Xinghe, let's go home and see who rides faster."
Completely ignoring the shouting behind him, pretending not to hear it, Liu Xinghe also joined in and sped up to catch up: "It must be me who rides faster, I will surpass you."
The female educated youth behind him stamped her feet angrily as she watched the two people's backs go away, and threw the package in her hand to the ground:
"Why are these two people like this, can't they hear me? I shouted so loudly, captain, who are those two people, are they from our team, how come they don't know the unity and love at all."
"When you come to our team, please be quiet. You don't know them, so why do you have to stop? Besides, it's normal that they didn't hear anything. Why should they hear anything? Why should they care about you? You are not their parents."
The captain was not happy to hear this. After all, she was his niece. He immediately defended her and said in a loud voice:
"Don't dawdle. Take your things and leave quickly. Don't waste time. Do you think you are here to have fun? Let's go."
After that, the captain walked forward and ignored her.
