Chapter 28
The stewed meat was hurriedly transported to the ox cart, and when it reached the cart, the old secretary was already there.
He sat cross-legged in the car, his face looked bad, and the sound of his pipe crackling made it seem like he had been the first to be beaten.
I feel sorry for the old man for a second.
The branch secretary curled his lips when he saw her coming back: "You're back. Let's wait a while before leaving."
Chen Qingyi wondered, waiting? Waiting for whom?
It’s just the three of them!
But she said nothing, just nodded, "Okay."
He then handed over two candies, "Grandpa Secretary, Grandpa Feng, please have some candy. Eating something sweet makes you feel good."
The corners of their mouths twitched, and they were coaxing the child, but the corners of their mouths unconsciously curled up.
I feel much better.
After all, it was the girl's intention, so she put down her pipe and held the candy in her mouth.
After a while, six people came out from the gate of the commune.
Chen Qingyi's pupils shrank, and the branch secretary also looked unhappy. He was a secretary of the commune and had a red armband.
A man in a green military uniform said sternly, "Secretary Han, let's go."
"Let's go." The branch secretary knocked his pipe on the edge of the car, his expression becoming even more dejected.
Along the way, several people followed the ox cart on their bicycles without saying a word.
Maybe it was because of the heat or because of this incident, but the secretary felt dizzy and his body couldn't help but shake.
Chen Qingyi was quick to respond and supported him. "Old Party Secretary?"
Seeing her worried look, the secretary waved his hand and said, "Good girl, I'm fine. I'm just hot."
Chen Qingyi thought about it and was afraid that the old man couldn't bear it, so she smuggled a cucumber through the space.
Ahem, she couldn’t bear to give away the popsicles since there were so many people around.
The green uniform noticed and his expression softened a little:
"Secretary Han, please don't faint. Your brigade will still need you to take charge of production in the next few days.
Don't blame us for being ruthless.
Who made your team do such a shameless thing?
This is of a really bad nature.
The impact is really bad. You want to hide it, but can you hide it?
The commune held a meeting and found out that your team leader had been replaced. How could others not ask?
What do you want the leader to say?
Oh, the cadres took the lead in committing adultery, and there were three of them, so we all followed suit and were embarrassed.
If we don't make an example of this and serve as a warning to others, won't others follow suit?
That would be a mess.
I didn't let them go to the farm because of you.
We must take this person away, no matter who you ask for mercy, it will be useless."
"well."
The branch secretary sighed. He knew it in his heart, but he just said, "They all have children."
The man in military uniform said nothing.
If you really care about your children, why didn't you do it earlier?
A group of people rushed to the brigade headquarters and dragged the man out like a dead dog.
He raised his hand to the members who came and announced the punishment results.
Since the incident hadn't become a big deal yet and no one had filed a complaint, they could just parade him through the streets. The commune couldn't afford to lose face.
Wu Youde was stripped to the ground and taken away together with Wu Yourong and Qi Mudan.
As for the new team leader, the commune will send someone down in the next few days to preside over the election.
"Xiaoyi, what's in your big backpack? Is it something delicious?" Chen Qingyi was thinking about who will be the new team leader.
He was interrupted by a sour voice.
She looked up and saw Shi Lanhua coming to watch the fun.
"It's good that the family has been divided. We just divided it yesterday, and today we're going to the commune. Did you buy meat?
Give me some!
Auntie hasn't eaten meat in almost a year and has lost weight, unlike you, who just ate a chicken."
The tone is like eating a lemon.
He was about to flip over, but she dodged it in an instant.
She opened her mouth to retort, but her eyes rolled and she suddenly shouted, "Team leader, scorekeeper.
My aunt avoided working and didn't go to the fields."
After shouting, he ran away like a gust of wind.
Team leader Feng Changxi's face was dark. This Shi Lanhua wanted to see everything.
"Shi Lanhua, why aren't you in the field at this time?"
Stone orchid "..."
I'm still a little confused and at a loss for words.
"I……"
"What's wrong? Your stomach hurts again?"
"Yes, yes, I... I have a stomachache." Shi Lanhua is not smart enough and can't understand any hint.
The same excuse has been used several times without any change.
Feng Changxi's face was gloomy, as if it was going to rain. "Why are you holding your stomach with your hands when it hurts? I think you're just a lazy donkey grinding shit and pissing."
Deduct three work points. Now and immediately, go to work in the fields.
If you don’t leave, your money will be deducted.”
Shi Lanhua looked guilty and ran away without even daring to make an excuse.
Aunt Yun, who was hiding behind the tree, patted her chest, looked relieved, and slipped away quietly.
Chen Qingyi returned home in a good mood and put her things in her room.
Cover the thermos with a thick blanket to let the popsicles melt slowly, and wait for mom and others to come back at noon to eat together.
Then he took out the remaining ten pounds of meat from the cold water bucket in the house.
She had everything planned out: boil the pig's trotters and dip them in garlic sauce, and braise the pig's head.
Leave two pounds of fat for stewing, and the rest depends on oil.
Marinate the oil shuttle with salt and make dumplings after a few days.
Holding a basket, he first dug up a potato from the vegetable garden, and then went to the bean field to pick half a basket of beans.
Their beans are especially delicious.
Especially the ones with drum beans, they are so fragrant.
Cut the fat meat into small pieces, put it into the pot, add water, put in green onions and oil.
Wash the vegetables while applying oil, staring intently.
Old Mrs. Chen came back from outside, limping. She smelled the overbearing fragrance from a distance and felt upset.
This damn girl must have bought meat.
As soon as he entered the house, he drooped his face and muttered, "Eat, eat, eat, this is how we eat after we just separated.
Is it still possible?
Eat alone and poop green."
Chen Qingyi continued to work, cutting the potatoes into pieces:
"Grandma, we've separated, so don't worry about it. Worrying makes you old faster.
He looks older than my grandfather.
You used to be frugal, but you still lost all your money! That's enough money to buy several pigs.
Hey, what's with that expression on your face? Are you jealous because we eat meat?
"……I'm jealous?"
Old Mrs. Chen's face froze and she raised her voice.
"I'm not as greedy as you."
"Wanting to eat meat means you're just greedy? Then my uncle would have died of greed eight hundred years ago."
Come on, let’s hurt each other.
Chen Qingyi had an expression that said, "Your youngest son is even more greedy than me," and said, "You can eat it if you want."
Old Mrs. Chen: "...You're not going to give me meat, are you?"
This girl has changed her personality? ?
Chen Qingyi gave her a strange look, "Grandma, what are you thinking? Am I such a generous person?
I mean, if you want to eat, just buy it yourself. You have money anyway."
Old Mrs. Chen was so angry that she blurted out, "Where do I have the money?"
Chen Qingyi smiled, but the old lady looked at her uncomfortably. She slammed the door and went back into the house, "Who wants your meat?"
In order to make the old lady salivate, Chen Qingyi used all her skills.
Stew the beans in the oily pan, stewing the beans with meat.
The sizzling sound of the meat entering the pot is so pleasant.
The fragrance comes out instantly.
He even maliciously opened the door of the east room a little.
Old Lady Chen: ...this stinky girl who doesn't behave like a human being, gulp! I'm not greedy, I'm not greedy!
Use another pot to stew the meat and potatoes.
Add star anise, green onion, ginger, garlic, and thirteen spices.
Old Mrs. Chen in the east room wiped the corner of her mouth.
"Oh my, oh my, this meat is really delicious, stewed till tender and soft.
Fatty but not greasy, melts in your mouth, two words, delicious!
This oil residue is delicious with some salt, no, I need to put more bread on it, the food is delicious but the rice is useless."
Old Mrs. Chen: ...This granddaughter is so annoying.
I really want to go out and spread the word.
Chen Qingyi yelled towards the east room at the top of her voice, her tone full of sympathy: "Some people are so pitiful, they were deceived by their beloved youngest son.
He also said he would take me to a state-owned restaurant!
Why haven’t you gone yet!
Could it be that you didn’t borrow the money?
All talk and no action is just empty talk! ! ! "
Old Mrs. Chen was so angry that she threw things around, "..."
Give me a needle, she wants to sew this girl's mouth up.
What’s even more infuriating is yet to come.
