After saying goodbye to Sun Xuefeng, Lian Xiaomin didn't waste any more time. On impulse, she put a bag of milk powder for her two-year-old baby in her bag and rushed straight to the hospital.
Yufang was already waiting downstairs, with Huang Liyuan standing beside her.
"You two should go back quickly and be careful on the road!"
After saying hello to him, Lian Xiaomin rode her bike back to the village with Yufang.
Along the way, Yufang held a flashlight and chatted with us.
"Xiao Min, I feel so sorry for Xiao Dong. I just bought so much cloth today. I'll make him another set of pants. The little guy only has one pair of pants with patches on top of patches, and now it's covered in blood."
Lian Xiaomin said as she rode her bike, "You used the money from selling mountain products to buy cloth and make clothes for others. Would your mother be happy about that?"
"My mother said that the money from selling the mountain products I saved up belongs to me. In fact, it's okay for her to know that I make clothes for Li Ge and Xiao Dong..."
"…In the early winter of that year, my eldest sister was pregnant and fell on the way back to her parents' home. She happened to meet Xiao Lizi. He was only 13 years old that year. He pulled a cart to help a family in another village build a house. He didn't pay them, but just wanted to have a few full meals…"
"In the end, he caught up with her halfway and sent her to the commune! My eldest sister gave birth prematurely, but fortunately it was nothing serious. If she hadn't met him, it would have been a disaster."
"He has always been very strong. No other child could pull him along, let alone run such a long distance."
At that time, the road from the village to the commune had not been built yet and was quite far.
Lian Xiaomin understood that there were so many stories.
No wonder I was wondering before why the honest Yufang hid so many things from her family. I guess she was making up lies just like me, haha.
I used to think that she was secretly making clothes for Huang Liyuan without her family’s knowledge, but it turned out that Yufang was still the same Yufang, and she was always upright in everything she did.
But it still seems like they did it before they asked for permission. I've already bought it, and I can't return it after I get it home.
After all, this is a lot of money, six dollars!
Well, now I have a better understanding of it. The Li family also owes them a favor. If Grandma Cui and my uncle know about it, they will agree. There is nothing wrong in helping a little.
In fact, many rural people in the north are quite simple and honest, just like the old movie "The Shepherd" starring Zhu Shimao that I watched before.
The hero is a "stinking ninth" and a rightist. He originally wanted to die, but he received care and warmth from the herdsmen in the northwest and came back to life.
The two chatted and soon returned home and went to bed early.
…
It was July and four days had passed in a flash. Lian Xiaomin was still worried about Sun Xuefeng's parents escaping from the farm and was afraid that something might go wrong.
According to historical records of previous lives, during this period, some of the people who were sent down to the countryside who could not bear the hardship, as well as some of their children, and some of the educated youth who could not endure the hardship after going to the countryside, tried every means to sneak from Bao'an County to Hong Kong.
Some of these people later became cultural celebrities, famous actors, etc., and they even talked about their past experiences during interviews.
She couldn't help but sigh in her heart that Sun Xuefeng's parents and Pei Ziqiu's family had also been forced to take this path.
Although Sun Xuefeng has grown up and is capable in doing things after following her for almost two years, she still wants to confirm it to be completely assured.
She has been feeling a little uneasy lately, wondering if it's because the weather has been particularly hot and humid these past two days since July. She's really feeling restless and irritable.
That afternoon, as soon as she arrived at Sun Xuefeng's house, the sky began to gather dark clouds. Soon, there was thunder and lightning, and heavy rain began to fall.
Sun Xuefeng told her about the whole process. It was a close call. His parents had some scratches but no broken bones, so they were fine.
He and his uncle each rode a bicycle and took the two of them to Jianye County overnight. It was a long way, so they rested on the way and then continued on, stopping and walking many times before finally arriving.
Fortunately, it is summer. If it were winter, it would be difficult to walk on the snowy roads.
My parents, my brother and sister-in-law, the whole family was finally reunited. They were so happy that they cried all night long. Now they are all in the yard in the county town, staying indoors for a few days.
There is also a cellar in the backyard. If someone goes there, they can hide there as long as they hear any noise.
Lian Xiaomin nodded. Master Qian had mentioned to her that because the yard had been empty for a long time, and he was not someone to be trifled with, the people around just treated it as if it had always been empty, but they didn't dare to make any plans, and no one went there easily.
After talking about these, Sun Xuefeng said that he asked his cousin after he came back and things went smoothly.
Chen Chunqiao used some tricks. He found two hooligans, gave them two kilograms of rice, and pretended to stage a play. When Huang Liyuan was on his way to buy lunch at noon, they pretended to have a grudge against him, robbed him of his things, and even wanted to hurt him.
It turned out that Huang Liyuan was really brave and righteous. He went up and started kicking the guy repeatedly. He was really fierce!
The two hooligans were chased away and Chen Chunqiao was saved.
For this reason, he later gave them an extra two kilograms of rice...
Chen Chunqiao is three years older than Huang Liyuan. They became good friends. In order to thank Xiao Lizi, Chen Chunqiao said he would take him to deal in black market supplies and asked him if he was willing to do it.
When Huang Liyuan heard this, what else was there to say!
This is the only way to make some money. In order to make his family live a better life and pay off all debts as soon as possible, he is willing to take risks and endure any hardship!
Lian Xiaomin burst out laughing, it's really like Shen Chunqiao~
Look at their two elder brothers, Chen Chuntian, who looks honest, and Sun Xuefeng, who looks tough. But this cousin is full of ideas, is quite outgoing, and has a very flexible mind.
Okay, no matter what time it is, you have to have a few strong and capable people under your command to do things for you.
Anyway, with her as the little boss to back us up, nothing big will go wrong.
