Su Yi ran to the educated youth's site, ignoring the educated youth with hair pulled in the yard, and pulled Guan the educated youth into the house.
She panted lightly and lowered her voice excitedly: "Guan Zhiqing, how about we ask the team leader to approve a piece of land and build two adobe houses? Are you willing to live with me?"
Guan Zhiqing's family conditions were not bad. Less than a month after he went to the countryside, his family sent him things twice.
She brought a lot of money with her.
You won't starve to death even if you don't go to work.
The most annoying thing about going to the countryside for her is sleeping on a large bunk bed. Not only is there no privacy, but some people grind their teeth, some don't like to take a shower and have a strong body odor, and some like to take advantage of others and want to try on other people's socks...
Guan Zhiqing felt terribly miserable and was on the verge of collapse.
After hearing the news brought by Su Zhiqing, she thought it was a good idea and said happily, "Okay, I agree."
She was impatient and said immediately, "There is no time to lose. Let's go talk to the captain right now."
Su Yi also wanted to move early, "Okay."
The two men did not alert the other educated youth and quietly went to find the team leader.
When the team leader saw the educated youth, he wanted to hide, but this time he failed.
The wrinkles between the eyebrows can kill a fly.
He didn't ask them what was wrong, but just looked at the two female educated youth with worry.
Guan Zhiqing said: "Captain, Su Zhiqing and I want to move out of the Zhiqing compound..."
The captain frowned even more tightly.
Without waiting for him to speak, Su Yi continued, "We'll give you the money. Just tell us how much you need."
The captain was not interested.
He doesn't want to have too much dealings with the educated youth!
Try to keep your distance from others!
Guan Zhiqing saw through it and said, "Captain, the land still belongs to the brigade. We will just build a house to live in. When we return to the city, the house will be given to the brigade for free. In addition, Su Zhiqing and I will give half a catty of flour to the comrades who helped build the house. Do you think this is okay?"
This was decided on her and Su Yilu.
The captain's eyes sparkled.
Half a pound of white flour.
Enough for the members to have a meal of noodles!
"Really?" He looked at the two female educated youth seriously.
He is not greedy, and the things are not given to him. The villagers have worked hard and they should be rewarded. The educated youth and the villagers have no close relationship, so who would be willing to help them without benefits?
We were willing before, but the educated youth asked for too much and some of them spoke harshly, which annoyed the people in the team.
There is a huge conflict between the two sides.
"Of course it's true!" Su Yi said immediately.
Guan Zhiqing also nodded.
The two girls looked at the captain nervously, their breathing slightly stagnant, fearing that he would refuse.
This is a good thing, there is no reason for the captain to refuse.
He asked, "Which piece of land do you two want?"
"Can we still choose?" Su Yi asked happily.
"Of course not."
Su Yi: “…”
The pretty female educated youth choked. Are you kidding them?
"As long as we can move out of the educated youth camp, we're both fine with it."
Guan Zhiqing glanced at Su Yi and thought that she was not afraid that the team leader had bad intentions, such as plotting against them.
She knew that the captain was a good person, but she felt that Su Zhiqing was a little... too defenseless!
This is very dangerous. If you meet a bad-hearted person, you will suffer a great loss.
Seeing Su Zhiqing smiling at him with such an innocent smile, Guan Zhiqing paused and thought, "Never mind, I'll just pay more attention to her in the future."
"Captain, thank you for your help."
The captain asked, "Are you two the only ones staying here? Is there no one else?"
Su Yi nodded her head repeatedly, "Yes, it's just the two of us. Guan Zhiqing and I took the photo together. It's just the two of us."
Two people have a companion, but if there are too many people, it is no different from living in a youth cadre camp.
She is most afraid of trouble.
"Okay, I'll discuss it with other officers and give you a reply later," said the captain.
In fact, he could make the decision on this matter immediately, but he couldn't give people the impression that it could be done casually, lest those educated youth get too demanding.
Su Yi looked delighted.
"Thanks!"
She took Guan Zhiqing's arm and said, "Guan Zhiqing, I told Comrade Lin that if we can move out, I want to treat her to candy. When you go to the county tomorrow, can you bring some for me?"
The educated youth took turns going out. Su Yi had just been to the city a few days ago and couldn't go tomorrow.
"Can."
As soon as Guan Zhiqing finished speaking, the captain who was about to leave stopped, looked at Su Yi, and asked, "Was it Yu Bao's mother's idea that you two came to see me?"
Su Yi explained, "I was the one who came to their house. I thought the Gu family had an extra room and wanted to rent one. Comrade Lin said her cousin was coming to live with us, so she rejected me. Seeing that I really wanted to move out, she gave me the idea."
The captain narrowed his eyes and felt emotional.
You have to be a high school student, your brain is active.
Look at this idea, it not only solved the problem for the team, but also generated income.
What a good female comrade! She has a very high level of awareness. She was blinded by greed before... and that's why she allowed the gossips in the village to spread rumors about her behind her back.
I regret it.
The captain left with mixed feelings.
Su Yi was confused: "What happened to the captain? Did he agree?"
Guan Zhiqing said calmly, "You will be able to pack your things in a few days."
It doesn't take a few days to build a mud house.
Su Yile spoke.
-
When Gu's father was working in the fields, the team leader walked up to him and praised him a lot. There was no technique, just direct praise.
"?" Father Gu was confused.
After asking, I found out that the third son's wife gave advice to the educated youth and solved the brigade's problem.
He smiled and said proudly, "It's my duty. As long as the problem is solved, it's good."
The captain said sincerely: "There is no need to say much about the awareness of the Gu family. They are all very high. It's no wonder that your third child climbed up so fast. His awareness is far higher than others."
Father Gu said modestly: "The country's education is good."
"Yes." The captain agreed, "Those soldiers, even the second-rate ones, can be reborn. Xinhua is great."
After chatting for a few more words, he strolled away.
As soon as the captain left, Gu's mother came over and asked, "Old man, what does the captain want to see you about?"
Father Gu told his wife about the casual conversation.
"The third son's wife helped the team?" Gu's mother was very happy. "That's great. If the team leader hadn't told us, we wouldn't have known about it. Yu Bao's mother is too modest!"
The third room’s reputation is getting better and better, which is good.
It’s a big commotion outside, and the bad atmosphere hasn’t spread to the team yet, but who knows what will happen in the future? A good reputation is better than a bad reputation!
Father Gu's dark face was full of smiles, sweat was running down his cheeks. He wiped the sweat off his face and continued to work.
After a while, he ran into Gu Chenghuai in the field and told his son what Lin Zhao had done.
"I know about that." Gu Chenghuai smiled. He hadn't been out in the sun for nearly half a month, so his handsome face had turned much paler. Today, when he went to the fields, he got sunburned and his forehead was covered with sweat.
Mr. Gu is a very traditional father. He can endure hardship himself but cannot bear to let his children suffer.
"Cheng Huai, work for a while and then go back. Dad can do these jobs. Dad is used to it. You haven't done farm work in a few years. Don't suffer this."
Gu Chenghuai looked at his father's old face and felt a bitter feeling in his heart.
"Dad, go take a rest. I'll do the rest."
In addition to building houses, picking up and dropping off Lin Zhao, and taking care of the children, he also did a lot of farm work. His parents were still working hard, and he couldn't just sit there and watch.
Father Gu did not try to persuade his son to stop. He sighed softly, did not rest, and worked faster.
This month we need to prepare for autumn sowing, including weeding, cultivating the soil, applying fertilizer, and preventing and controlling pests and diseases... As it concerns the autumn crops, no one should slack off.
It was tiring, but the work points were numerous, and the work points were linked to food rations. Not only the adults, but even the children on vacation did not slack off.
Gu's father and mother are both under 60 years old and can still work. They don't want to add burden to their children, so they still earn work points. Gu's father earns seven or eight work points a day, and Gu's mother is not doing too bad either, with enough to support themselves and even subsidize their grandchildren.
Gu Chenghuai had advised them several times not to work in the fields, and he would give them 20 yuan a month as a filial gift, but the old couple were not happy.
"Dad, slow down." Gu Chenghuai said as he saw his father swinging the hoe vigorously.
Father Gu waved his hands and said, "Dad is used to it. I can even close my eyes."
"..."
Gu Chenghuai said no more and sped up.
"Third brother, wait for me." Gu Qingzhou glanced at the bulging muscles in his father's arms with envy, and then compared them with his own thin arms, falling into extreme inferiority.
How can he train like his brother?!
Gu Chenghuai looked in the direction of the voice and offered to help, and the two brothers walked forward side by side.
Half an hour passed.
Several familiar figures appeared in the fields.
Hengbao's loud voice rang out.
"Grandpa, grandma, dad, uncle... we are here to bring you sour plum soup, come and drink it."
Gu Chenghuai: Hengbao is suitable for shouting slogans, his voice is really loud!
The people in the field stopped, lifted the torn towels hanging around their necks to wipe their sweat, and looked over at the same time.
Someone not far from Gu's mother said, "Mother Cheng Huai, your third daughter-in-law asked Yu Bao and Heng Bao to bring water again."
"That's not water, it's sour plum soup. Sour plum soup should have sugar, right?" The other person licked his lips. There was no water nearby, so he couldn't even moisten his lips.
"Yubao's mother is very generous, she must have added sugar!"
"Mother Cheng Huai, you are lucky. All your daughters-in-law are good."
Mother Gu was happy.
The third daughter-in-law brings honor to her and the old man.
She happily walked towards the twins with Gu's family.
Some people who don't like Lin Zhao curled their lips and said, "Why didn't her third daughter-in-law send it herself if she was so kind? She was so happy when people gave her a little favor that she became seriously ill."
The person who was close to Gu's mother sneered, "You also want some small favors, right?"
After saying that, he went to drink some water.
People who speak sarcastic words like to pour cold water on others. No one likes to talk to her and they all pretend to be busy.
The person was so angry that she kicked the hoe on the ground, but her foot was not as hard as iron and she didn't release the force, so she grimaced in pain.
The ridge of the field.
When the Gu family tasted the sour and sweet plum soup, the heat in their bodies instantly dissipated.
Huang Xiulan asked, "Why is this sour plum soup so fragrant? Like...osmanthus?"
"Yes! It's osmanthus!" Yu Bao said softly, "My mother put osmanthus in it."
Hengbao added, "It tastes even better when you add osmanthus flowers. I drank half a bowl and it was fragrant and delicious."
He took the fan his grandfather made for him and fanned his father.
"My mother said that the weather was hot and you were working hard to earn work points, so she put the sour plum soup in the bottom of the well to cool it down. Grandpa, when you drank it, did it feel cold?"
Father Gu smiled, "Yes, your mother is thoughtful."
The third child’s family was very good at cooking, and he and the child’s mother tasted a lot of delicious food.
The twins are very satisfied.
They like others to praise their mothers.
Gu Chenghuai took out his own straw hat and put it on Hengbao's head. His straw hat was big, so it fell down when he put it on, covering the child's entire face.
"Dad, I don't want to wear a straw hat!"
"If you don't wear it, you'll get tanned and become the darkest person in our family." Gu Chenghuai said deliberately.
He doesn't care whether the child is black or white, but Zhaozhao does care, she likes fair and tender children.
"Your mother likes white people."
Hengbao's eyes turned, "Dad, you are not white."
"I'm gifted." Gu Chenghuai said without any modesty, his dark eyes glaring at Xiao Lao Er, "I can make my hair white in two days, how about you?"
Heng Bao: He can’t.
He paused in returning the hat, put it on, wrinkled his face, looked at Yubao pitifully, and cried, "Brother, I didn't wear it when I came here, I'm darker than you!"
Yubao pinched his brows like a little adult, "I asked you to wear it, but you refused, and even said that the hat would affect your running speed."
"...I was wrong." Hengbao regretted deeply.
Yu Bao asked, "Will you throw hats again in the future?"
"I won't throw it away." Hengbao hung his head.
"Don't be discouraged." Yu Bao said seriously: "If you are darker than me, I will also be tanned, and we will still be the same."
Hengbao's eyes lit up, "Brother is really smart."
Yubao turned into a pouty mouth.
Yes, he is smart.
Gu Chenghuai: “…”
Gu family: “…”
"You two should go back early and be careful of heatstroke." Gu Chenghuai said.
"Yeah." Hengbao responded, pulling his brother and running away. Although they were so small, they ran very fast and disappeared in a flash.
Gu Qingzhou sighed, "Children are so energetic."
After drinking the sour, sweet and fragrant drink, the Gu family members were full of energy. They rushed back to the fields and worked very quickly, finishing nearly an hour earlier than expected.
Other members in the field looked at him with envy.
When Gu Chenghuai got home, he had food to eat, but the people in the old house couldn't even have a drink of boiled water.
Gu Xing'er didn't go to the fields, nor did she think about boiling water or cooking. She ate the eggs she had snatched from Tiedan in the morning in the house, but she was still hungry after eating the eggs.
She heard voices coming from the yard and opened the door and walked out.
"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law, hurry up and cook, I'm starving!"
Huang Xiulan & Zhao Liuniang: I was so angry that I almost laughed.
The two sisters-in-law were so polite and distant that they couldn't even smile.
Mother Gu looked unhappy and said angrily, "...You have been lying at home all afternoon?"
"Yes." Gu Xing'er didn't think much about it. "I wanted to go play with my sisters, but they were all busy. It's so hot out there, I won't go. What if I get tanned?"
Mother Gu gritted her teeth, "Where's the boiled water on the stove?"
"I've finished drinking it. It's so hot, I drank it because my throat was dry." Gu Xing'er felt that her mother's expression was strange. She figured out something and felt unhappy. "Mom, what's with that expression? I'm also a member of the Gu family. Can't I even drink water?"
Mother Gu ignored her words, took a deep breath, and clenched her fists.
If she had never hit or scolded children, she would have slapped him twice!
This debt collector!
"We were all busy working in the fields, and you never thought about cooking?"
Gu Xing'er said confidently, "I can't!"
"If you don't know how to do it, can't you learn?" Gu's mother was very angry. "You are so lazy and greedy, which good young man would be willing to marry you? You still want to marry in the city, you are dreaming."
"I'm lazy and good at eating, so what?" Gu Xing'er said without any shame, "I won't marry someone who despises me. I want to marry in the city to enjoy life, not to work. Why should I learn?"
This statement makes damn sense, but it’s all fallacy!
Mother Gu had been busy all afternoon and was tired and hot. Now she was angry and her head was feeling dizzy.
"Don't eat tonight!"
Gu Xing'er's face turned cold and she was about to make a scene when Second Aunt Gu came in the yard.
She didn't notice the strange atmosphere and said straight to the point, "Xing'er, your grandma wants you to come home."
After delivering the message, he turned and left.
Being interrupted, Gu's mother calmed down and a thought flashed through her mind: Is there any news about what the old man told her mother-in-law? !
