Chapter 134 The two people who were shocked
After Fu Manhua calmed down, Su Tingqian went to another room and called Zhang Zhen over.
Seeing Zhang Zhen, Fu Manhua's eyes were wet again.
Her family lives in Guangxi Province and they rarely go back to Hai City every year, but Zhang Zhen still has a very high status in the hearts of the couple.
An old man who has dedicated his whole life to the country and the people has ended up like this.
This further confirmed Fu Manhua's thoughts just now.
Although she is just a doctor, she has treated many bigwigs over the years, and she also has some connections.
However, this matter needs to be planned and planned well.
Zhang Zhen was also very surprised to see Fu Manhua and Su Yichen. After hearing that they had returned to Haishi, he asked them some questions about their current situation, and both of them answered them seriously.
Su Mo mainly brought the two people here this time. She basically didn't say much, but just quietly took out the things she brought from the backpack and helped Mo Yurong put the things away.
Mo Yurong saw Su Mo bring another earthenware jar over, so she whispered: "Momo, what is this?"
"The mutton soup I cooked tonight, you can heat it up tomorrow to warm your body."
"Okay, Mom will get a bowl, and you can take this earthenware jar back later." Mo Yurong said.
After the last incident of Lu Changzheng, Mo Yurong always remembered that the things brought in with things should not be kept, so as not to leave a handle to harm her daughter.
"I'll go with you." Su Mo said. She happened to go to the kitchen to take a look.
Although Lu Changzheng said that he had arranged for the production team leader of Lijiaao to do it in the name of reward, it was still better to see it with her own eyes.
The mother and daughter went to the kitchen quietly.
The small thatched house that used to be the kitchen had been demolished and replaced by a mud house that was much larger than before.
"Changzheng arranged for someone to build this kitchen. It used to be a thatched house, but now it has been built into an adobe house. They also rebuilt the stove and equipped it with a large iron pot."
"Even the kitchen knife was replaced with a new one. The old one had several holes in it and was not easy to cut." Mo Yurong said softly.
Mo Yurong was not as averse to Lu Changzheng as Su Tingqian was. After all, she found that the son-in-law was not bad.
Su Mo felt sad, "Mom, why didn't you tell me that you didn't have these things?"
"Momo, other things are easy to hide, but pots and other daily necessities are not easy to hide." Mo Yurong said.
Sometimes when they were cooking, someone would come to the cowshed to lead the cows and donkeys. These things used outside must have a legitimate origin.
Su Mo turned on the flashlight, looked in the kitchen, took a basin with Mo Yurong, and went back.
The few of them didn't dare to stay too long, and went back at about the same time.
On the way back, Fu Manhua and Su Yichen were silent.
They have been in the army all the time and have never seen the living conditions of those sent down to the countryside. When they arrived at the Lujia Village Brigade, the conditions at Su Mo's grandmother's house were quite good, so they did not feel that life in the countryside was that difficult.
Tonight, when they arrived at the cowshed and faced the terrible situation, the shock was huge.
In that environment, even in the middle of winter, you can still smell a strong smell of beef. If it is like this in winter, there will definitely be swarms of mosquitoes in the summer.
They are already considered to be well taken care of and their situation is relatively good. At least they can eat enough and don't have to freeze.
You can imagine how miserable the situation is for others.
"Xiaomo, take good care of your parents and wait for our good news." When they were about to return to Lujia Village, Fu Manhua gritted his teeth and said.
Su Mo nodded, "Okay."
After arriving home, Fu Manhua and Su Yichen did not sleep well all night.
Su Yichen was holding back his anger, and he got up at dawn to chop firewood for Su Mo in the yard.
Compared with his younger sister, he, as a brother, had too little to bear.
Su Mo heard the sound and got up too. Seeing that it was already six o'clock, she started to make breakfast.
Today's breakfast was simple. Su Mo cooked corn grits and rice porridge, then cut some scallions and steamed them, and cut a plate of spicy cabbage.
After breakfast, Su Yichen said he had something to find Geng Changqing, so he rode Su Mo's bicycle and went to the commune.
Su Mo accompanied Fu Manhua to the Lu family to chat with Li Yue'e and others.
At noon, Su Mo was going to go back to cook. As soon as she went out, she saw Lu Xiaolan coming back on a bicycle. Her eyes were red, and she looked like she had been crying.
"Xiaolan, what's wrong with you?" Su Mo was a little surprised. Every time she saw Lu Xiaolan, she was smiling, and she almost never saw her cry.
When she went to the supply and marketing cooperative yesterday, she didn't see Lu Xiaolan. Her colleague said she was on vacation.
Lu Xiaolan curled her lips and forced a smile, "It's okay, I just happened to be on vacation, so I went home to see her."
"Then you go in quickly, it's cold outside. My aunt is here, and she is chatting with my parents in the main room. I'll go back to cook first." Seeing that Lu Xiaolan didn't want to say anything, Su Mo didn't ask any more questions.
About half an hour later, Fu Manhua also came back. The two waited until after twelve o'clock, but Su Yichen didn't come back, so they ate first.
At noon, they ate the leftover corn porridge from the morning. Su Mo heated up two yesterday's pancakes for each person, and then fried some vegetables with lard.
The white flour at home had been almost used up. Lu should be at home during the Long March, and Su Mo couldn't get it from the space, so she thought about taking the wheat to the commune processing plant to grind flour in a few days.
After dinner, Fu Manhua went to the kang in the west room to check on the wild ginseng. Because the kang was always heated, it dried quickly. It was estimated that it would only take about a day to dry.
In fact, wild ginseng is best dried in the sun, but now there is no condition, so it can only be placed on the kang to dry in the shade.
After a rest, Fu Manhua went to the kang for a nap again. She had been preoccupied with something last night and barely slept, so she had to make up for it at noon.
Su Mo saw Fu Manhua sleeping, so she also went to bed and slept for a while.
In the afternoon, Su Mo heard a noise in the yard and got up to see.
It was Su Yichen who came back. There was a bamboo basket hanging on the back seat of his bicycle, which was full of things.
Su Mo: ...
So, in name, you went to look for Geng Changqing, but in fact, you went to buy things?
Su Mo quickly helped to take the things down, all of which were food.
There were half a bag of rice, white flour and cornmeal, each weighing an estimated 20 pounds. There was also a large piece of pork, a large piece of pork fat, two fish, and an estimated two or three pounds of eggs, which were placed in a straw basket with wheat straw as a cushion.
He also bought her a bag of apples.
Su Mo was a little confused. Could it be that her brother saw that there was not much food in the jars in her cupboard and thought that she had nothing to eat?
"Brother, why did you buy so much? There are grains on the shelves in my room. I just haven't had time to process them yet."
Su Yichen waved his hand, "It's okay, you can leave it there to eat."
She looked like she had a lot of food, but there were three people in the cowshed who needed her supply, so that was not enough.
Only when he came here could he help a little, usually he had to rely on her alone to support him
