"Grandma, Gu Ming, where is Comrade Gu? Where is he?" She almost called out his name.
Grandma Zhang didn't notice her granddaughter's strange behavior and replied happily, "He's in the house, playing with your brother. He's a good kid, polite. He helps us with things as soon as he comes home. He's great."
Throughout her words, Grandma Zhang expressed her love for Gu Mingtai.
Zhang Meng smiled, said nothing, and turned into the house.
Zhang Chunsheng followed behind. When they both walked into the Zhang family's house, they saw a tall man in military uniform sitting inside, telling little Zhang Tao about the exciting things happening outside with a gentle smile.
"Sister, you're back." Little Zhang Tao looked up and saw Zhang Meng coming back. He immediately slid down from the chair and ran over with his short legs.
Gu Mingtai, who had his back to her, slowly turned around and greeted Zhang Meng who was walking over with a smile on his face, "Comrade Zhang, we meet again."
Zhang Meng looked at the tall and handsome man standing in front of her. Her face, having lived two lives, flushed. She replied softly, "Yes, Comrade Gu, we meet again."
Gu Mingtai was about to speak when he suddenly saw Zhang Chunsheng standing behind Zhang Meng. "Who is this?"
In this era, soldiers are very respected. When Zhang Chunsheng heard the soldier mention him, he immediately volunteered to run over and introduce himself to him, "Hello, hello, I am Zhang Chunsheng, the village chief."
"It's Village Chief Zhang. Hello, my name is Gu Mingtai. You can just call me Comrade Gu. Village Chief, I have something I'd like to talk to Comrade Zhang about privately. I wonder if you could..."
Zhang Chunsheng immediately understood what he meant and said, "No problem, I'll be out right away." Before leaving, Zhang Chunsheng was loyal enough to take little Zhang Tao out with him as well.
At this time, there were only two of them left in the quiet big house.
Zhang Meng looked at him puzzledly, "Comrade Gu, what do you want to say to me?"
Gu Mingtai pointed to the empty seat next to him and said, "Comrade Zhang, if you have anything to say, shouldn't we sit down and talk slowly?"
Zhang Meng's face flushed again, "Excuse me, please sit down."
She didn't know why, but every time she ran into him, she seemed to do something childish.
"I wonder if Comrade Zhang knows that things aren't peaceful out there these days. Unbelievable things are happening in many places."
Zhang Meng shook her head embarrassedly, "I don't know. I just hang out near home and haven't even left the province. I really don't know much about what's going on outside."
Gu Mingtai nodded. "It's okay. Comrade Zhang, just let us know what's going on. A few days ago, the state secretly decided to organize a group of talented people to form a special anti-abnormality team. I recommended you to the higher-ups."
Zhang Meng opened her mouth in shock and pointed at herself, "You recommended me, how can I do it? No way."
Gu Mingtai chuckled softly, "Comrade Zhang, don't be too modest. I already know your abilities. You are fully capable of handling the work of that group. Don't be afraid."
Zhang Meng bit her lip and finally said what worried her most, "I don't want to leave my family, so I'm sorry, I might disappoint your high hopes. I can't join your so-called alienation team."
Gu Mingtai chuckled softly, "If I tell you that if you join that group, you can stay here without leaving your family, and you only have to go out when there is a mission, would you agree to that?"
Unexpectedly, this was the result. Zhang Meng looked up at him in surprise.
"If I join that organization, will I get paid?" After asking, Zhang Meng saw him staring at her with a smile. She lowered her head embarrassedly and said in a low voice, "What's so funny about this? I'm the only one in my family who earns work points now. If I join that anti-alien organization and get no pay, my family will starve to death!"
Gu Mingtai smiled and nodded, "Yes, you are right. Don't worry, this organization has very good benefits. You get a salary of 100 yuan a month, plus food coupons, oil coupons, meat coupons and other coupons. How about this benefit? Are you satisfied with it?"
When Zhang Meng heard this, she was more than just shocked. She was more than satisfied. She was extremely satisfied. A formal worker in this county town only earned 30 yuan a month, and she earned 100 yuan a month, which was equivalent to more than three months' salary for others.
"Satisfied, satisfied, very satisfied. Okay, I'll join." Fearing that if she agreed too late, the other party would not want her, Zhang Meng quickly agreed.
In order to thank the other person for introducing such a good job to her, Zhang Meng entertained him as much as possible during the meal.
As the head of the village, Zhang Chunsheng had naturally seen a little of the world.
When he sat down to eat, he saw the military uniform the man was wearing and immediately knew that he held a high position in the army.
So during this meal, he tried his best to curry favor with Gu Mingtai.
After dinner, it was already getting dark. Gu Mingtai told Grandma Zhang that he wanted to leave.
Grandma Zhang looked reluctant to let him go and held his hand, "Xiao Gu, come to grandma's house more often when you have time. Grandma will make delicious food for you."
"I know, grandma, don't worry. If I'm free, I will come to visit you often." Gu Mingtai replied with a smile.
Soon, the military vehicles slowly drove out of Zhangjia Village.
Zhang Chunsheng, who was walking at the back, saw the military vehicle leaving and planned to go back, but this time his attitude towards the Zhang family was 180 degrees better.
"Aunt Zhang, Xiao Meng, I'm going back now. If you have any difficulties at home, please tell me. We are all from the same village and should help each other."
Grandma Zhang smiled and replied, "Okay, thank you, Village Chief." Zhang Chunsheng said quickly, "You're welcome, you're welcome. This is what I should do."
After seeing Zhang Chunsheng off, Zhang Meng helped Grandma Zhang into the house.
By the way, she told Grandma Zhang about what she had talked about with Gu Mingtai.
"This is a good thing. After all, you are working for the country. Do your best. Our family never expected to have a useful child like you. You will bring honor to our Zhang family."
Zhang Meng only recently found out that his family had served as high priests in a dynasty a long time ago.
At night, Zhang Meng lay in bed, thinking about the things she had encountered in the past few days since she was reborn. She could almost make a horror movie out of it.
At this moment, the jade pendant on her chest suddenly burned her skin.
Zhang Meng looked down and found that the jade pendant hanging around her neck had turned back into its original shape and was even absorbing moonlight.
She slammed her forehead, regretting that she had forgotten to ask Gu Mingtai about the jade pendant when he was there in the evening.
Looking at this jade pendant, Zhang Meng's mind is full of questions. What is the origin of this jade pendant? Why are ghosts afraid of it? And why can it cure the evil spirit in Brother Sangou's body? It's so strange.
