Chapter 173
Xiao Yuehua ran away as if she was running for her life.
Song Jingzhou and Su Qingci were left staring at each other.
The atmosphere was a bit awkward.
"Then, um, why are you back again?"
"Aren't you going to queue up?"
Su Qingci had never seen him with a black face before, and it was quite scary.
Song Jingzhou's expression gradually softened.
"Well, you, don't listen to her nonsense."
Su Qingci looked at his indescribable expression and burst out laughing.
“Hahaha~”
"Are you climbing into her bed? Hahaha~"
"It's okay. It's okay to crawl. I don't mind."
Song Jingzhou's face was filled with humiliation and his head was black.
"I don't!"
This is a naked insult to his personality!
Song Jingzhou secretly thought to himself that he must go back and beat Feng Jianjun up.
Husband and wife are birds of the same forest. When a fist comes, they block it together. This is what Feng Jianjun deserves.
"Okay, okay, I was just joking." Su Qingci quickly stroked his fur.
"Don't you know who she is? She's a jerk with her words."
"By the way, didn't you say you were going to queue? Why are you back again?"
Song Jingzhou breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she really didn't mind. "The captain said we don't have to queue."
"Knowing we were busy, they just weighed it right away."
"I asked him to count our work points together. He asked for some mung beans, soybeans, and some peanuts."
"In addition, I bought another 100 kilograms of late rice from the team."
"I wanted to buy more, but the branch secretary and accountant disagreed. They were worried there wouldn't be enough for the members, so I took 100 kilograms first."
"I came back to discuss this with you. I want to drag the food back first and then come back to pick you up."
Song Jingzhou knew that Su Qingci liked to watch the fun, and guessed that she didn't want to go back so soon.
Sure enough, Su Qingci nodded repeatedly after listening.
"Then you can give it a try first and come pick me up later."
"You have to bring these two large bags of food and a jar of chopped peppers. It will probably be difficult to bring people with you."
"It just so happens that I haven't been back for quite a while, and I want to play for a while longer."
Song Jingzhou rubbed her head and said, "If you want to come back, we can come back anytime."
"Let's go!"
The two walked side by side towards the ancestral hall, and before they arrived they heard the lively noise.
"Accountant, add some more. Look, the scale isn't even level yet."
"Hu Qingxi, it's done. Look, it's all sticking up high."
"That's right, that's right. You never get enough of taking advantage. If everyone were like you, wouldn't the team be in trouble?"
Hu Qingxi was not annoyed, as this year was considered a year of good harvest.
The family has worked hard for a whole year and it is finally time to distribute the food. The Chinese New Year is coming soon.
I got some fish this morning and I couldn't hide the smile on my face.
There are thirteen people in her family, nine of whom are laborers, and her sons and daughters-in-law are all willing to work hard.
After receiving a year's worth of food, the remaining work points could be converted into about thirty yuan.
"Song boy, your food has been weighed out for you, what about this?"
Scorer Li Fen saw Song Jingzhou and quickly pointed to the table next to him.
"Okay, thank you, Auntie."
After expressing his gratitude, Song Jingzhou said hello to Su Qingci, then left carrying the rice in one hand and a small sack in the other.
The sacks were filled with peanuts, mung beans and soybeans exchanged for work points.
The rice that was distributed was all unhusked.
Although the village does not have electricity yet, it has an old rice mill that runs on diesel.
If any member of the team wanted to use it, they had to pay a few cents for diesel for threshing a bag of rice or keep the chaff.
Today is the day for distributing grain. According to custom, the rice mill in the rice room has to be running all day long.
Song Jingzhou carried the rice to the rice threshing room first to thresh the rice.
The bran was not taken and was left to feed the team's cows, so there was no need to pay the team any additional diesel fees.
Su Qingci gathered in the ancestral hall and watched the noisy scene with great interest.
Feeling everyone's joy, a smile unconsciously appeared on my face.
Logically speaking, the production team should distribute grain twice a year, once after the summer harvest and the public grain payment, and then again at the end of the year.
But the output at that time was extremely low, and after the summer harvest and public grain payment, there was not much left to distribute.
We also have to prevent other emergencies, so some emergency food must be reserved in the team's collective warehouse.
There won't be much left to be distributed equally among the members.
I don’t know what the responsible persons discussed later, but starting from the year before last, Gaotang Production Team only distributed grain once a year at the end of the year.
Those who have no food at home can borrow money from the team in advance and then deduct it when the food is distributed at the end of the year.
Xiao Yuehua hid timidly behind the crowd. Only after seeing Song Jingzhou leaving with the food did she dare to step forward.
"Hey~ Qing porcelain?"
"Qing porcelain?"
"Qingci, are you angry?"
Seeing that Su Qingci ignored her, Xiao Yuehua pushed her butt towards Su Qingci.
"Wow~"
Su Qingci fanned the air with her hands and almost sat down in the ditch.
Xiao Yuehua quickly pulled Su Qingci, "Hey, hey, hey, I didn't use any force, you can't stand steadily."
"Are you going to die?"
"Xiao Yuehua, I've noticed that you've become a bit disoriented since you became pregnant."
"You don't love your brother Feng anymore?"
Xiao Yuehua smiled awkwardly, her apple cheeks bulging like pectoral muscles.
"I was just joking with you. Besides, what does this have to do with my Jianjun?"
Su Qingci looked at her pectoral muscles, no, her apple muscles, and felt even more depressed.
A pure white sanitary ball turned over, "Do you love your brother Feng?"
"like!"
"That's right, you love him, he loves you, and you will always be one."
Xiao Yuehua didn't understand the philosophical meaning of these words until the next day when she saw Feng Jianjun's legs trembling from even sitting in a dung bucket during training, and then she vaguely understood what they meant.
It was soon Xiao Yuehua's turn to distribute food.
Xiao Yuehua worked a total of 107 days and earned 1,007 work points, while Feng Jianjun worked 268 days and earned 2,406 work points.
The couple earned a total of more than 3,400 work points. Xiao Yuehua asked for 400 kilograms of sweet potatoes, 200 kilograms of rice, 50 kilograms of soybeans, 300 kilograms of dried corn kernels, and some peanuts and other things.
After carrying the grain aside, Xiao Yuehua took the list issued by the accountant and looked at it carefully.
Su Qingci came closer curiously.
"Hey, the price of work points has increased this year?"
"Yes, this year one work point can actually earn more than 5 cents."
"It says here that you've been on duty for 107 days. Doesn't that mean it only counts from the time you married Feng Jianjun? So that's 1007 work points. Doesn't that mean you've been getting 10 work points every day?"
Su Qingci looked at Xiao Yuehua and was speechless. "No wonder your mother said that many people want to marry you. It seems she was not exaggerating."
"Compared to you, Feng Jianjun is simply weak. A grown man can earn less than 10 work points a day."
