Chapter 109 Sold
Pei Huaiye's face was full of pampering, "It will be ready soon."
He took the fried pork ribs out of the pot, picked out a piece of ribs that was neither too big nor too small and was golden on both sides, blew it to cool, and then fed it to Su Qingyue.
Su Qingyue was like a little squirrel that hadn't eaten meat for a long time. She took a bite and made a satisfied sound of "hmm".
"Aunt stole the fried pork ribs!" Su Zhuangzhuang pointed at Su Qingyue with his little fat hand at the kitchen door and said.
Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai were so anxious that they barked and drooled all over the floor.
Su Qingyue threw the gnawed bones to them, brought out the plate, and said confidently: "I'm pregnant now, so I have to eat more."
"I'm still young, so I need to eat more too."
The aunt and niece were making noises while gnawing on the spareribs like three-year-old children.
Life returned to normal, and after the road was repaired, the soy products from Shuangshui Village were delivered to the county town as usual.
It’s just that the tractor has been used for many years and because of the accident, it is almost scrapped.
Now the only way to go to the county town is to use ox carts to transport goods.
Xiang Jianming and Su Qingyue discussed it and announced to everyone that four ox carts would go to the county town every day, and anyone driving a ox cart would get fifty cents.
Everyone rushed to sign up, and Xiang Jianming and the team leader sorted the names according to work points.
"One of the four people must be one of ours, and the other three must be chosen from these lists." Su Qingyue thought.
"Yes, it's more reassuring to have our people around."
There is also an ox cart in the village, which is actually Pei Huaiye’s ox cart, and it is used to take the children to and from school.
It’s our own people who drive back and forth every day, so everyone feels at ease.
That day, Pei Huaiye followed the ox cart and went to find Jiang Chao.
"Do you know Mr. Zhou from the next county?"
Jiang Chao was stunned. "Old Zhou from Yang County?"
Pei Huaiye's expression was intriguing. "Well, Zhang Jun went to Lao Zhou to buy soybeans."
"Mr. Zhou's asking price is very high. He won't negotiate unless he gets 40 or 50 cents. I wonder how he bought it?"
Zhang Jun used his own savings to exchange soybeans for the Qingshan team? No one would believe it.
Jiang Chao lit a cigarette. "Lao Zhou was born into a poor family and is an orphan. He followed the previous boss to do black market business since he was young. When the boss died, he started traveling around the country after he was promoted. He did all kinds of business. I heard that he is single and doesn't like to talk. He has no other problems except asking for high prices."
"The footprints from the landslide can be seen to be from leather shoes. The only person who has a grudge against Qingyue is Zhang Jun, and Zhang Jun often wears leather shoes."
"But I ran away with Yuan Guang several times, and there was not a pair of leather shoes in his house. They must have been hidden afterward."
"This guy is quite aware of anti-reconnaissance. He now goes out with at least three people and never goes alone."
These actions made Pei Huaiye even more certain that Zhang Jun had thrown stones from the mountain that day.
"Old Zhou wants to sell soybeans, and we can't interfere. You should trust your wife when it comes to business. You have excellent quality and a stable supply of goods, so you will definitely defeat them."
"You've already said it. That bastard is on guard because he's guilty. If he really gets beaten, you and your wife will definitely be criticized. People from both villages will think about who has a grudge against him."
"There are kids from your village studying in other villages. If everyone knew about this, it would also affect your reputation and that of your siblings."
"Let's calm down and think positively. You and your sister-in-law are fine now, and we will have plenty of opportunities in the future. Wait until your village is selected as an advanced brigade and the school is built, and then we will slowly deal with him later!"
Jiang Chao was several years older than Pei Huaiye, and after some gentle persuasion, Pei Huaiye gave up the idea of beating up Zhang Jun.
He also knew that beating people would not solve the problem, but when he thought of the dangerous situation that day, he felt a pang of fear in his heart.
"Well, there are only two months left before the Chinese New Year. I will spend some time with my wife." Pei Huaiye let out a long sigh. "When the bus is available, you can bring Jiang Rong to the village to play."
"No problem."
Pei Huaiye asked how to make fried pork ribs and left with great enthusiasm.
"Brother Zhou, please don't see me off. Lingling is my cousin and I'll leave her in your care." Zhang Jun drank a lot of wine and waved goodbye to Old Zhou.
As soon as Zhang Jun left, a dangerous look appeared on Lao Zhou's honest face. There was a plump beauty lying on the bed in the room.
He fell into a coma because he drank medicinal wine.
Old Zhou pinched her chin without mercy and murmured, "Wang Lingling? Are you Zhang Jun's cousin?"
It was midnight when Wang Lingling woke up.
She felt pain all over her body. When she opened her eyes, she saw a strange room with a strange man beside the bed.
Ah! The sharp scream pierced the night sky.
Slap! Slap! Slap! Old Zhou slapped the child several times, and the cries in the room gradually changed from hysterical to desperate and weak.
"Zhang Jun, where does my daughter work in Yang County?"
When Zhang Jun returned to the Qingshan team, he was stopped by Wang Lingling's mother.
"It was at a supply and marketing cooperative, and my local friend helped arrange it."
In order to buy soybeans, he and Captain Shi looked for one middleman after another, and finally got in touch with Lao Zhou.
When they met for the first time, he brought several thick volumes of Great Unity and failed to negotiate business. He knew that Lao Zhou had no wife, and Wang Lingling repeatedly threatened to marry him, otherwise she would go to the supply and marketing cooperative to fight with Jiang Meng.
Zhang Jun could no longer bear it, so he knocked the man unconscious and handed him over to Lao Zhou. He then made some arrangements in Yang County and finally agreed on the price of soybeans, 30 cents per pound, and would supply it to him without a ticket.
"Why is there no news? This girl is really a worry at all." Xie Qiulan grumbled.
"Auntie, she has a lot to learn when she first left, so this is what she brought back for you.
Zhang Jun handed her a bag of fruit candies and a pack of snacks, and Xie Qiulan's eyes suddenly turned red.
"I told you not to go, but you insisted on going to Yang County to find a job. It's so far from home. Really."
Xie Qiulan thanked Zhang Jun and went home.
She didn't know that this demon had sold her daughter to Lao Zhou.
That day, Zhang Jun pulled Wang Lingling aside and asked, "Are you willing to elope with me? If you are willing, tell your mother that there is a good job in Yang County and you should go and try it."
Wang Lingling thought she had finally found the true love she had been waiting for, but unexpectedly she ended up experiencing a hellish experience instead.
“I bought soybeans, but it’s hard to get back to the village because the roads haven’t been repaired yet.”
"Let's buy a bullock cart and use it to pull it!"
Zhang Jun made the final decision, "The tractor is probably scrapped. We will have to use ox carts from now on."
Zhang Huarui covered his head with his hands, looking annoyed. "I still can't figure it out. I checked the tractor and found that everything was fine. How could it drive directly into the river?"
"And why did the mountain collapse when I was about to pass by?"
Captain Shi looked at Zhang Jun without saying anything. Zhang Jun's eyes flickered, hiding something.
"What's there to not understand? I was just unlucky. Now the bad luck is over, and good things will be waiting for me in the future!"
Don't take unexpected things to heart, work hard, let's make good tofu, the advanced team at the end of the year depends on these two months!"
Zhang Huarui was fined half a year's salary by Shuangqiao Commune because he drove his tractor into the river.
He also had several quarrels with his wife, and he had to cheer up in order to survive.
