Chapter 33: Blocking the Road
Wang Nan blushed when she heard Yi Chichi's soul-stirring question.
Shameful and angry.
A fire ignited in his eyes, and then went out in an instant.
"Swear!"
As she spoke, her back could no longer straighten, her shoulders slumped, and her entire spirit and energy instantly dissipated.
Yi Chichi and the others already knew that this was not going to be a good outcome.
"I didn't win the scolding."
She wiped her face and said weakly, "The women in the village are really cruel and dirty when they curse at people. I can't deal with them..."
Waving her hand, she went back to the house dejectedly.
The strong atmosphere of depression was felt by Yi Chichi and others outside the house.
Wu Yongfei touched his nose and said, "This is really a huge blow."
Zhou Qiuyu felt sympathetic, "Nannan is better than me. At least she cursed back a few times. If it were me, I wouldn't be able to open my mouth and would just cry."
Then, a group of people gathered together to discuss whether they had a chance of winning against the Daniu family.
Bai Chen rolled his eyes when he heard this. He always felt that something was not right with his companions.
“Ahem…”
Seeing that they were getting more and more excited, and were talking about whether a gentleman could only be invincible by using words or hands, I could no longer help but clear my throat and remind them, "Internal fighting and group fighting are allowed in the Youth League."
When he said this, he glanced at Wu Yongfei, and his implication was very obvious.
Wu Yongfei was so angry that he wanted to jump up and down, "You are blatantly targeting me."
"What's wrong with targeting you?"
Ge Sujuan retorted angrily, "Who told you that you can never control your mouth?"
Without waiting for him to retort, she turned to look at Bai Chen and said, "Go on."
Bai Chen, "..."
He was going to continue, but what was he going to say?
He frowned and thought seriously for two seconds, then he replied, "Fighting and group fights are not allowed outside the Youth League House."
"Why?"
They all said the same thing, but they all had the same confusion.
Bai Chen sighed, "Because if we go out, whether it's cursing or fighting, we can't beat those aunties."
Wu Yongfei was not convinced and argued, "Maybe we can do it. You can't boost others' ambitions and destroy your own prestige."
Yi Chichi and the others thought that this person must be a fool.
"After that, wait for the guys in the team to beat you up."
Whether it is the closest or most distant relationship between husband and wife, or the relationship between mother and son, mother and daughter, etc., if a man's wife (mother) is beaten up by a group of people, it would be strange if the man in the family did not come forward.
The majority of Chinese people have the mentality that their people and things are theirs and can be bullied and messed with at will, but outsiders cannot.
If you dare to move, don't blame us for standing united against the outside world.
Therefore, if they really dare to fight with the aunties and sisters-in-law in the team, or even in a group fight, no matter what the result is, they will be the only ones who suffer.
Wu Yongfei sighed and felt that this world was extremely boring.
"In the end, we just get bullied."
“Who bullied us?”
Bai Chen asked sharply, "No one in the team bullies us. If you really want to talk about bullying, you should go and see how the next-door brigade treats the educated youth."
These words silenced Wu Yongfei.
Seeing that he was no longer looking for trouble, Bai Chen waved his hand and said, "Okay, go and have a rest. We'll go collect firewood tomorrow."
Yi Chi has no time to collect firewood, she has to make the medicine first.
But you have to pick up firewood.
So, the next day, when she met the branch secretary on the way to the team medical room, she stopped him.
"Uncle, I want to ask you something."
"Well."
"Is there anyone in the team who can change the firewood?"
Liu Xiangqian's eyes suddenly widened. What the hell, this girl wants to exchange firewood? "You..."
After a pause, he said seriously, "Old girl, can you stop pulling my coat?"
Yi Chichi felt very wronged and wanted to change the firewood.
Seriously.
"Uncle, how much firewood can I bring back with my body?"
Liu Xiangqian's mind flashed with the image of herself at work, and then he looked back at the mountains.
Given Yi Zhiqing's physique, it seems that we really can't rely on him.
"You live alone?"
"Um."
He rubbed his face, "How much do you want to change?"
“How much wood does it take to burn in a winter?”
“That depends on how you burn it.”
Then, Liu Xiangqian started to have a serious argument with her.
The more Yi Chichi listened, the more desperate he became. The temperature was 20 to 30 degrees below zero, and it would not start to rise until March of the following year. It would take more than five months...
My god, if the kang wasn’t kept burning all day long, she would have frozen to death.
Thinking of the experience of being frozen to death when she went to the Northeast fully armed in her native world, she gritted her teeth and said, "Do you have two thousand kilograms?"
"Sister, I do."
There are too many to handle.
“(⊙o⊙)…How much can I buy?”
"Fifteen thousand at most."
Looking around and seeing no one nearby, she whispered like a thief, "How do you change it?"
I dare not even say buy it, I will exchange it instead.
"One dollar and two hundred pounds of firewood. The brigade next door has a special exchange for this. If you think it's too expensive, you can go and ask around."
The business of selling firewood has existed since ancient times. In the early days, people from the countryside would carry firewood to the city, because after all, not everyone in the city could afford coal.
At that time, the price was not as high as it is now. The price of one load was only 50 or 60 cents. Now the price has increased.
Most of the purchases were made by educated youth.
Anyway, no one in their village did this, and there were no educated youth to replace them, so Yi Chichi was the first to do so.
Liu Xiangqian had no intention of making money from her. If she really wanted to change, the job would have to be given to the families in the village who were having difficulty making a living.
"Switch?"
"Change!"
One dollar and twenty cents per 100 kilograms, so fifteen hundred is only about ten dollars.
In order to avoid freezing to death this winter, you should spend where you should and save where you should.
but--
"Can you keep it a secret?"
"It has to be."
Liu Xiangqian was a reliable man. He reassured her when he heard her say, "I'll let Da Wa and his grandfather do this job. I promise to gather all the materials for you before the mountain is closed due to heavy snow. If someone finds out by accident and asks about it, just say that you exchanged the firewood for sugar cakes or something like that."
This means that she should not mention money.
Yi Chichi smiled and thanked him, "Thank you, uncle. Thank you for your trouble."
"Wait!"
Waving his hand, Liu walked forward leisurely towards the brigade headquarters.
Yi Chichi watched his back as he left and felt that most of the people in Kaoshantun were quite cute.
Even the despised educated youth were like this.
Good.
Thanks to the Youth League Office, a good place was assigned to the original owner, which was a good deal for her.
"Sister, you're blocking the way!"
A childish voice came from behind her. Yi Chichi turned around and saw Erdan standing behind her holding Niuniu's hand, two pairs of big eyes like black grapes staring at her.
Yi Chichi, "???"
Such a big muddy road is not enough for them to walk on, and they blame her for blocking the way?
She moved aside and extended her hand in a gesture of invitation, "You go."
You Benlu grew eight legs like a crab and walked sideways for her to see.
The plan was good, but the reality was that the two rebellious little brats didn't leave. Instead, they started chatting with her, asking her where she was going and if they could play with her.
Yi Chichi thought it was okay, "I'm going to Uncle Yaozi's place, do you want to go?"
