"How do you know?" Gu Jiuyan's tone was filled with a hint of boasting.
Next, all he had to do was wait for the two-year contract to expire and then marry the girl home in style.
Jiang Chen just said it casually, but he didn't expect that he actually guessed it right.
Jiang Chen suddenly jumped up and put his face in front of Gu Jiuyan in a mean manner. He was about to speak, but who would have thought that Gu Jiuyan would kick him so far away.
Gu Jiuyan said coldly: "Stay away from me, I'm in a relationship now."
Jiang Chen covered his right leg that was hurt by the kick and complained dissatisfiedly: "Gu Jiuyan, you are a bastard who has no humanity towards the opposite sex. The next time I see my sister-in-law, I will complain to her and say that you bully others at every turn."
Gu Jiuyan said seriously: "She won't believe you."
Jiang Chen was so angry that he vomited blood. After holding it in for a long time, he finally uttered: "You two are bastards, you bully people!"
Woo woo woo…
He wanted to go home to seek comfort from his wife, saying that Gu Jiuyan bullied him.
Gu Jiuyan was too lazy to pay attention to Jiang Chen, who was a little confused. He took out the treasured photos in his arms and stroked them over and over again with his calloused hands.
After being apart for so long, he misses his wife.
After returning from Beijing, Shen Yunshu has been busy like a top these days, running between the melon field and the pigpen, and has lost a lot of weight.
However, seeing the thriving melon fields and the fat and strong pigs, Shen Yunshu felt that it was all worth it.
Chen Fengying felt sorry for her, so she called her home and secretly prepared some special meals for her a few times.
No one had enough food these days, especially the Du family with so many mouths to feed, but Chen Fengying couldn't refuse.
Therefore, every time Shen Yunshu went to the Du family for dinner, he would never go empty-handed.
The most common things they brought were rabbits and pheasants from the hillside, and occasionally some fine grains.
The two daughters-in-law of the Du family, who originally had a problem with Chen Yunshu, became very attentive when they saw what Chen Yunshu brought every time he came home.
Chen Fengying felt a little embarrassed and was about to curse, but when she thought of what she had promised her daughter, she swallowed the words back.
Her daughter is kind-hearted. If she were to say so, she would have to scold the daughters-in-law more and keep them under control, so that they wouldn't get ahead of her and her daughter in the future.
That day, Du Shouquan got up early and went to the commune for a meeting.
After each brigade finished reporting on their work, the commune leader, Secretary Ma, asked Du Shouquan to stay alone for a talk.
Although Du Shouquan had doubts in his heart, he still followed his leader's arrangements obediently and sat in the chair without looking around.
Secretary Ma spoke frankly and got straight to the point.
"Captain Du, I heard your brigade raises over twenty pigs. Is that true?"
Du Shouquan patted his chest and said confidently, "Secretary Ma, that's true, but don't worry, we will definitely be able to deliver the required pigs to the commune this year."
Seeing that Du Shouquan had misunderstood his meaning, Secretary Ma hurriedly explained: "Captain Du, I didn't ask you to come here today for this..."
"What is that?" Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the impatient Du Shouquan.
"Many brigades under our commune have been hit by swine fever. Pigs are dying or getting sick. Your brigade is the only one that hasn't been affected. So I wanted to ask you for advice on raising pigs. See if you can make it more common and try to recover some of the losses for the team members. You know how difficult life is for the team members right now."
Hearing this, Du Shouquan looked embarrassed.
Secretary Ma also saw his dilemma and quickly said, "Captain Du, your help is not in vain. I'll approve the fertilizer application for next year."
Du Shouquan waved his hand and said, "Secretary Ma, it's not that I don't want to help, but I really don't know how to raise pigs. The twenty or so pigs in our team are all under the care of Shen Zhiqing."
Hearing the word "educated youth," Secretary Ma immediately became interested: "This delicate educated youth from the city knows how to raise pigs? How bizarre!"
It’s not that he didn’t believe it, but after dealing with the educated youth for several years, he had some understanding of it.
Not to mention raising pigs, even when weeding in the fields, the educated youth from the city couldn't tell the difference between crops and weeds.
The team members below came to the commune to complain every now and then, which made him exhausted.
"Shen Yunshu is a very capable educated youth. Our brigade not only raises pigs, but also grows watermelons. The watermelons are about to ripen. When they are ripe, I will send someone to send you some to try." Speaking of Shen Yunshu, Du Shouquan's face was full of pride.
Fortunately, God favored the Red Flag Brigade and sent them such a treasure.
"Captain Du, can we still grow watermelons in this season? Are you making fun of me?" Secretary Ma didn't believe it at all.
"Do you think I'm that kind of person?"
Secretary Ma shook his head. He had been dealing with Du Shouquan for so many years and knew him a little bit. He was a down-to-earth man who sincerely cared about his team members and never boasted.
"Secretary Ma, I won't lie to you. The few acres of watermelons planted in our team are late-maturing varieties specially selected by the educated youth Shen. He also asked us to spray the watermelon fields regularly, saying it was to prevent pests and diseases. We also applied manure quite a bit..."
Du Shouquan spoke eloquently, and Secretary Ma listened quietly beside him.
If this person is really as Du Shouquan said, then he is indeed a capable person.
Such a capable person should naturally be put to good use.
Before even meeting the person, Secretary Ma had already set his sights on Shen Zhiqing, whom Du Shouquan mentioned.
"Captain Du, can I meet Shen Zhiqing? I want to talk to him about something."
