Chapter 169 What is Walnut Powder?
"My grandfather said that we will hold a meeting tonight when he comes back. This year, only our production brigade and the two neighboring production brigades have a good harvest, and the other production brigades have suffered more or less. We have to pay the public grain, and after paying it, every household will live a worse life than before the autumn harvest! Now that there is no other statement from the higher-ups, it is inevitable that some people will have some crooked thoughts."
"Let's hold a meeting in our production brigade to let everyone know about this, so we can prevent it. Otherwise, if our food is really stolen, crying will be useless! We also need to inform the two neighboring production brigades!"
Xiao Chengjin told Su Ruanruan everything he knew, and Su Ruanruan just kept it to herself.
These are not things she can control.
She has done everything she can. She can't sacrifice herself for everyone, right?
She is just a small person, and there are only so many things she can change.
After seeing with her own eyes that Xiao Dashan and his men were taking Xu Laosan away, Grandma Chen went to the sheepfold with peace of mind.
Su Ruanruan also went to the literacy class with Xiao Chengjin.
After parting with Granny Chen at the fork in the road, Xiao Chengjin couldn't wait to ask, "Ruanruan, you weren't scared yesterday, were you?"
"certainly!"
Yes! She was scared to death!
She thought she was being watched by a ghost! But how could she say such a shameful thing! After all, she had lived for decades and could not lose face in front of the teenage Xiao Chengjin.
Xiao Chengjin thought of Xu Laosan who had just been taken away. His face and upper body were covered with bruises. He had been beaten severely.
Seeing his look, Su Runrun was frightened.
Probably he wasn't really scared.
Zhang Qiang and Zhao Gang said that if a girl is frightened, she will only scream and will never think of taking action.
——
When Grandma Chen arrived at the sheep pen, she found Qi Anfu was already cleaning the sheep pen, so she greeted him.
Qi Anfu had been waiting for Grandma Chen for a long time. When he saw Grandma Chen finally coming, he hurried to the corner, took out a basket from a pile of hay, and handed it to Grandma Chen.
Seeing the basket, Grandma Chen did not take it.
Didn’t you just give me a notebook and a skirt yesterday? Why are you giving me something again today?
Qi Anfu and Xu Yinghua had a hard life, so how could she always ask for their things? Seeing that Granny Chen didn't accept it, Qi Anfu became anxious.
"Mrs. Chen, take it quickly! This walnut powder is too expensive, we can't have it! You should take it back! Both you and Ruan Ruan can eat it!"
"Ruanruan is a kind-hearted child who treats us well, but we can't always take advantage of you!"
Listening to Qi Anfu's words, Grandma Chen felt her mind was in a mess.
Qi Anfu, what does this mean? What is walnut powder?
What did she give?
Could it be that she was really senile and couldn't even remember what she asked Su Ruanruan to deliver last night?
Grandma Chen thought about it carefully and was finally sure that she did not ask Su Ruanruan to send any walnut powder.
So where did this jar of walnut powder come from? Qi Anfu couldn't have used this excuse to give her the walnut powder. After all, as long as she asked Su Ruanruan, the lie would be exposed.
But where did Su Ruanruan get a can of walnut powder? Granny Chen had all sorts of thoughts going through her mind, but she didn't show it on her face.
She reached out to take the basket and said to Qi Anfu with a smile, "I'll talk to Ruanruan when I get back!"
