Chapter 138 Take Care of Yourself
Yang Suzhen had been to Hongxia Village several times, but this was the first time she saw Jiang Chengzhou, and she felt a little regretful.
Because Jiang Chengzhou is the kind of person who can still make people's eyes light up even if he is wearing dirty clothes, especially the gentle temperament he exudes, which blends strangely with this simple land, yet stands out.
Just like when Yang Suzhen fell in love with Jiang Tang at first sight, these two siblings are both extraordinary and have won her heart. How could she not have noticed it before? It's such a pity.
"Comrade Jiang, don't worry. Jiang Tang is a very good girl. She is very popular in our compound."
Yang Suzhen answered Jiang Chengzhou in this way, and in her heart she was thinking about finding a way to check Jiang Chengzhou's personal file after returning to see what kind of situation their Jiang family was in. If the problem was not too big and they were active in reforming, they could be used as talents.
Under normal circumstances, with Jiang Tang's sensitivity, she would have noticed Yang Suzhen's obvious emotional changes immediately, and then strongly recommended Jiang Chengzhou to Yang Suzhen. With Jiang Chengzhou's ability, he would definitely be able to make a career.
Just now...
Jiang Tang couldn't help but sigh, and said with a sour heart, "Brother, I'm leaving."
Jiang Chengzhou hummed, then gave a worried reminder, "Be careful on the way back and pay more attention to safety. Take good care of yourself at home, and take good care of my nephews and nieces. Listen to Fu Sinian and don't be willful."
Jiang Tang muttered softly, "I'm not being willful at all. Big brother, I will definitely come back to see you and mom and dad as soon as possible."
The reason why Jiang's father and mother didn't come out and didn't send Jiang Tang away was that they couldn't bear the separation.
Although they now live closer and seem to be able to meet at any time, Jiang's father and mother still feel pessimistic after so many years of wasting time. They don't know when they can see Jiang Tang again and can't bear to say goodbye.
So let Jiang Chengzhou come alone to send it off.
Even Jiang Chengzhou said, "You don't have to come visit us often, and don't worry. I'll take care of Mom and Dad, and we'll be fine. Tangtang, the most important thing for you right now is to take good care of yourself, understand?"
"Brother, I know, I will be obedient."
In order to reassure Jiang Chengzhou, Jiang Tang could only nod and agree, then slowly walked towards the tractor that was ready to set off.
The tractor was piled high with grain, and Jiang Tang and Yang Suzhen had to sit on the grain, which was actually quite dangerous, but that was how it was when hittingchhiking in that era, and the same was true for the staff at the two grain stations.
They were still making final confirmations with the village chief. The food issue was of great importance. Only 80 kilograms of the stolen 100 kilograms of food were recovered, and the remaining 20 kilograms had been wasted by Wang Tiedan.
In order to complete the task and not delay today's work, the village chief and the village party secretary gritted their teeth and each took out ten kilograms of grain from home to complete the task temporarily.
They registered, signed, and confirmed carefully.
Jiang Tang seized the last moment to talk to Jiang Chengzhou, "Brother, do you want to read a book? I'll bring it to you next time. ...Brother, look how old your clothes are, with many holes in them. I put some new clothes in your room, you must wear them...Brother, your hair is too long, go get it cut when you have time. I still like your old hairstyle, it's so handsome..."
Jiang Chengzhou listened to Jiang Tang's chirping, as if she were a little sparrow, just like when he was a child.
He listened quietly, feeling warm in his heart and smiling more.
After Yang Suzhen finished her work, she called out to Jiang Tang, "Xiao Jiang, get in the car. It's time to go back."
"Okay, Director Yang, we'll be right there." Jiang Tang replied, looking up at Jiang Chengzhou, "Brother, I really have to go."
"Well, I'll take you there and see you get in the car."
Jiang Chengzhou accompanied Jiang Tang over. When Jiang Tang sat on the back of the tractor, he lent a hand to make it smoother for Jiang Tang to get on, and gave instructions to the staff of the two grain stations nearby.
"Comrades, please take good care of my sister on the road and stay safe."
"Don't worry, we'll be watching."
Jiang Tang sat high up, looked down at Jiang Chengzhou beside the car, smiled and waved.
Yang Suzhen watched from the side and said with emotion, "You two siblings have such a good relationship."
After a while, the tractor that was supposed to set off did not move.
Yang Suzhen turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"
The tractor driver, the village head, the village party secretary, and the staff of the two grain stations all gathered around the front of the tractor. Some had frowns on their faces, some had their heads lowered and were bent over, all looking at the tractor.
Older tractors have a rotating handle, similar to a car engine.
Before starting the tractor, you need to rotate the handle forcefully to use external driving force to stimulate the engine, which is like an "ignition" process.
This will light the tractor's engine and start it up, making a continuous rumbling sound.
But at this time, when the handle was turned, there was a rumbling sound, and when the handle stopped turning, the rumbling sound stopped.
It was obvious that the "ignition" did not ignite the engine.
From the driver to the village chief and the village party secretary, everyone went up and tried several times. Several people turned the handle with all their strength, almost turning it so hard that it flew up, but the tractor engine still did not start.
Zhang Chao looked up helplessly and replied to Yang Suzhen, "Director Yang, the tractor won't start. Wait a moment, we'll try again."
Several men took turns trying to turn the handle in an attempt to start the engine, but were disappointed again and again.
After a series of disappointments, the village chief began to worry.
"How could this happen? The grain has already been loaded onto the tractor and can't be sent back to the warehouse. If we can't get it to the city today, what if it gets stolen again?"
The village party secretary was worried, "The sky is gathering clouds again. It might rain tonight. We must send it to the city today."
Everyone knew that time was running out. It was already evening and it would be dangerous if they didn't go back. Accidents might happen at night and they couldn't lose any more food.
A group of people were staring at the tractor driver. "How is it? Is it starting? Can we still go back today? With so much food, what if a bandit shows up? How dangerous would that be? We have to go back before dark. Think of a way."
The tractor driver was sweating profusely. "...I want to start the engine, but I don't know what's going on. It won't turn. The tractor won't start!"
Everyone was anxious and sweating.
