Chapter 311 Deng Wanwan, the door of hope is open
After the Lantern Festival, all schools will be almost back to school.
On the 16th day of the first lunar month, Gao Yue was going back to school. This time, they would not see each other for several months. At nine o'clock in the morning, Gao Mingcheng drove a tractor to take him to the railway station.
Gao Yue got off the car with his luggage and said to Gao Mingcheng, "During the Chinese New Year, I had already found the village party secretary of Shimen Village and discussed with him the matter of buying fruit seedlings. He agreed immediately and promised to send the fruit seedlings to Gaojia Village."
"He gave me a preferential price for the seedlings, and they are definitely good. He guaranteed that they would all survive. I told him to deliver the seedlings at the end of March. Gao Mingcheng, remember that we received them in Gaojia Village! If there is anything wrong, just tell the delivery person directly."
After hearing Gao Yue's words, Gao Mingcheng also smiled.
Gao Yue mentioned the matter of buying fruit seedlings last time, and he would take care of it for me.
With Gao Yue's help, you don't have to worry about many things. First of all, you can be absolutely assured about the quality of the fruit seedlings. Secondly, you can also save some money on the seedlings.
Gao Mingcheng patted Gao Yue on the shoulder and thanked him with a smile: "Gao Yue, thank you for your help."
Gao Yue also smiled and said meaningfully: "What trouble? My parents wish you would trouble me more!"
Gao Mingcheng had helped Gao Guobing solve a case before, and now he helped Gao Guobing capture the fugitive murderer Wang Zhi, and also seized the cultural relics from two ancient tombs!
That’s two achievements!
For this, Gao Guobing, who was responsible for leading the team to investigate this case, was commended by his superiors, and all the participants also received bonuses.
The bonus can make up for the hard work of going out to handle cases during the New Year.
"Okay, my train is about to arrive, I'll go into the station and wait first. Gao Mingcheng, I've given you the phone number of the school's communication office. If you have any urgent matters, just call me and let me know as long as I can be of help." Gao Yue prepared to go into the station with his luggage.
Gao Mingcheng naturally sent him in.
The county train station is very small, so there is naturally no requirement to check tickets to enter the station, but when you are on the train, there will be attendants checking tickets.
After entering the station, Gao Yue frowned slightly. He found that there seemed to be more people riding the train this year than in previous years.
"Why are there so many people taking the train? They are carrying quilts and big bags. Where are they going?" Gao Yue asked in confusion.
Gao Mingcheng took a quick look and immediately recognized that this was the classic look of migrant workers.
If you go out to work these days, you can't just bring a few sets of clothes to change, you also have to bring a quilt, and some people even bring buckets and clotheslines.
This year is not so bad, next year will be the working boom, people will flock to Guangzhou from all over, dreaming of finding a job and making money, but Guangzhou simply cannot accommodate so many people, so these people can only wander the streets and become vagrants.
The reason why they acted like this was also related to the relevant policies and domestic market conditions in 1989. In short, cherish 1988, because 1989 will be even more difficult.
"They should be going to Yangcheng to work." Gao Mingcheng said.
Gao Yue seemed to be thinking about something, but he didn't care too much.
The two exchanged a few more words, and then it was time for the train to pull into the station.
"Gao Mingcheng, goodbye!"
Gao Yue waved goodbye to Gao Mingcheng.
Gao Mingcheng also waved at him and said with a smile: "I wish you academic success!"
The two smiled at each other, and then Gao Yue carried his luggage and walked towards the train entering the station. When the train stopped and the doors opened, he got on the train according to the instructions on the ticket.
After seeing Gao Yue off, Gao Mingcheng had to go on another long journey.
Xiao Jinfeng came to see him and asked him to go to Yangcheng on the 18th day of the first lunar month to bring back Fan Chengyao's son Fan Licheng.
Xiao Jinfeng said: "I will arrange for a driver to deliver JDZ's goods to the county in advance. You just need to come to the transportation company on the 18th to drive the car away."
This was something Gao Mingcheng had promised before, so he agreed without hesitation.
The university has started, and the elementary school will naturally start soon. Fan Licheng lives with his grandparents, so naturally he has to come back here to study.
"Okay, I'll be there early then." Gao Mingcheng said.
After Xiao Jinfeng left, Gao Mingcheng said to Xuanyuemei, "Didn't you say last time that you would invite Deng Wanwan to come and sell clothes? Find some time in the next two days to go to her house and see if she has recovered. If she has, ask her to come and work."
"I'm going to Yangcheng in two days to do some business, and bring back another batch of goods. Then I have to go back to Gaojia Village to plant trees and plow the fields at the end of the month. I don't have time to take care of the clothing store here."
It was Xuanyuemei's decision to ask Deng Wanwan to sell clothes. She sympathized with Deng Wanwan's situation and was willing to help her.
After hearing what Gao Mingcheng said, Xuanyuemei immediately said, "I'll go to her house now!"
Women who have a miscarriage also need to take a month off. However, it has been almost a month now, and I think Deng Wanwan’s body should have recovered almost completely.
So Xuanyue left the clothing store to Gao Mingcheng and Gao Shufang, and rode her bicycle to Deng Wanwan's home.
This time when I went to Deng Wanwan's home, it was the same recipe. Deng Wanwan's grandmother was again making indirect accusations in the next room.
Perhaps they were used to it, so everyone in Deng Wanwan's family was indifferent. But when they heard that Xuan Mei was calling Deng Wanwan to go to the county to sell clothes, Deng Wanwan's mother immediately stood up and said anxiously: "Wanwan, I'll go pack your things for you!"
Having said that, he hurried off to work.
Deng Wanwan's face was pale, but she showed a hint of smile at this moment, and a glimmer of hope flashed in her gray eyes.
She had always wanted to get away from here, but she had nowhere to go.
Before, Xuanyimei suggested that she go to the clothing store to help, but Deng Wanwan did not dare to go there on her own, fearing that Xuanyimei was just talking casually.
Now that Xuanmei came to pick her up in person, her heart instantly became hot. She secretly decided that she must do a good job after she got there.
She didn't have much stuff, so Deng's mother packed it up quickly. She put the clothes for changing in a woven bag and tied the quilt with hemp rope.
Deng Zhiyong also said positively: "It's not easy to carry so many things on a bicycle. I can just take the bedding to the county."
Winter bedding is thick and heavy, and it is indeed inconvenient to put it on a bicycle.
So Xuanyuemei rode a bicycle, and Deng Wanwan sat on the back seat with a woven bag in her hand, and the two went to the county first.
As for Deng Zhiyong, he carried a thick cotton quilt and walked towards the county step by step.
In the days when transportation was inconvenient, people were used to walking wherever they went, and their leg strength was incomparable to that of people in later generations.
Seeing Deng Wanwan leaving with someone and seeing Deng Zhiyong carrying a quilt, people from Deng's hometown asked Deng Zhiyong where he was going.
Deng Zhiyong didn't answer, just laughed.
Because Deng Wanwan had a good place to go, he was happy from the bottom of his heart, and anyone with a discerning eye could see the joy in his face.
It didn't matter what happened to the others, but his own mother was cursing, saying that Deng Wanwan was dirty and no one wanted her.
Deng Zhiyong's expression changed. He had been forbearing before, but now he didn't want to endure it anymore. He stood there, staring at his mother fiercely, and cursed: "Shut up! If you curse me again, I won't support you in your old age! I won't give you a penny, no matter who comes to me!"
The old lady choked instantly, her eyes widened, and her lips twitched. She seemed to want to curse again, but she didn't dare to.
She only has two sons, and the youngest son has been to jail. Although she doesn't like her eldest son, and now hates Deng Wanwan even more for causing her youngest son to go to jail, she still has a bit of rationality and knows that she will have to rely on her eldest son for support in the future.
The reason why he abused his eldest son so wantonly was actually because he was weak and could be bullied.
But now that her eldest son straightened his back and glared at her, she felt a little scared.
Good people can be deceived, but bad people cannot be deceived. This is the bad nature of some people.
Deng Zhiyong was happy and sad to see that he had shown some toughness and his mother didn't dare to scold him anymore. It turned out that it was such a simple thing to make his mother shut up, but he couldn't do it before.
But with the experience of success, Deng Zhiyong knew what to do next. He deliberately snorted coldly and left without looking back.
Deng Wanwan's mother was standing at the door and saw this scene. She looked relieved, but tears flowed from her eyes. These were the years of grievances that turned into tears and flowed from her heart.
The man in the family is tough, and so is she. She decided not to pamper the old man anymore, and if anyone dared to say something bad about Wanwan again, she would hit him with a kitchen knife!
She wanted to see, who was harder with words, or with her kitchen knife!
Of course, the reason why they suddenly became so tough was because Deng Wanwan had a good place to go and had new hopes and life.
Only when Deng Wanwan escapes from the muddy environment can they break free from the shackles of the mud.
