Even when Captain Lu rushed to the brigade headquarters, they followed closely behind.
This attracted a lot of attention. Some aunties who were washing clothes by the river asked with a smile: "Why are you so anxious?"
The dark-faced man saw his wife busying herself there, and quickly walked over to her side.
Explain the whole story again.
This shocked the aunt who was washing clothes nearby and her eyes widened.
They didn't come to their senses until the black-faced man left.
I don’t know which aunt it was, but she was the first to react with a cry.
He dropped his clothes and ran towards the brigade headquarters.
They know it better than anyone else that now that the land has been allocated to every household, everyone does not need to do so much work, and each family can send one or two young and strong people out to work.
This is an extra source of income.
The black-faced man's wife reacted the most. She rubbed the clothes quickly twice and put them in the wooden basin.
Then, he ran home without stopping.
At home, her daughter was sitting at the table, humming a little tune.
Upon closer inspection, it looks quite good.
Apart from her darker skin, she has a pair of big almond eyes, a small cherry mouth, and an oval face.
She has thick, shiny black pigtails, a smile with faint dimples on her lips, and the most amazing thing is her beautiful voice.
Unlike the rough voices of people from Heilongjiang Province, it is more like the soft and gentle voice of people from the south of the Yangtze River.
When they sang the song at this time, people who didn't know would think it was a tune played on the radio.
"Chunlian, Chunlian......."
Chunlian's mother shouted anxiously, which frightened the little girl so much that the words she wrote were crooked.
"Mom, what are you doing? You're so flustered!"
Chunlian's mother let out a breath of foul air: "I wanted to find a husband for you some time ago, but you looked down on country guys.
Going to the county town every day is not a good idea. Do you know Lu Zhiye from our brigade?"
Chunlian's eyes lit up: "What's the matter?"
"He has now set up some kind of construction company and needs a construction team to go there.
I made a special phone call to the village to ask if there was anyone in our village who wanted to go?
Mom was thinking that you were very ambitious. Aren’t there many big bosses in the construction team? I heard that there were also businessmen from Hong Kong.
If you can win the favor of those people, wouldn't you be better than the men in our county town???"
Chunlian's eyes became brighter and brighter, then dimmed again: "Dad, can you let me go?"
“Your brother is 18 now, and he’s getting married soon.
This time, the family actually wanted a bicycle and a 200 yuan dowry.
Your father was thinking of taking your brother south to work.
After working with the construction team for a few months, at least I’ll have enough money for the bride price.
When the time comes, you will just follow your brother. At worst, their construction team will have to have someone to cook, right?
Why don't you go and help out and take the opportunity to make friends with these powerful bosses? ? "
The more Chunlian's mother thought about it, the better she felt her plan was, and she couldn't wait to pack Chunlian's package right away.
Chunlian is an ambitious person. She sees that all the educated youth who went to the countryside have been admitted and returned to the city.
Even her former good friend got into college, so how could she be willing to be inferior to others?
I have always wanted to marry a city worker and get her a job.
When my friend comes back, at least others won’t see that I’m having a miserable life.
Chunlian made a fist with one hand and a palm with the other, and pounded it back and forth several times. Finally, she made up her mind: "Mom, can you help me talk to Dad?"
Chunlian's mother was a little hesitant. Not only did she have to tell her husband about this matter, she also had to discuss it with Captain Lu.
What if they don’t want lesbians?
What will Chunlian do when her husband and son go to work in the construction team?
By the way, there is also Lu Zhiye. Lu Zhiye can’t just watch Chunlian disappear, right?
Thinking of this, she took big steps and ran very fast.
At this time, the brigade headquarters was packed with people.
The men lined up and were registered by Secretary He.
Captain Lu was strolling back and forth when he suddenly saw Old Liu.
Captain Lu frowned and said, "Old Liu, if I remember correctly, you will be 60 next year.
Why do you want to work for someone else's construction team?"
There were also sneers from the people around: "Uncle Liu is still strong at his old age!"
"Captain Lu, you're right. Although Old Liu is older, he works just as well as the young ones."
Captain Lu stamped his feet anxiously: "What's the point of just working fast?
I heard that they were going to build high-rise buildings, some of which would be taller than the housing estates in our county.
You still have to climb the scaffolding outside. The sun in the south is not as hot as ours.
It's so hot, if one of them can't stand, wouldn't that cause trouble for others?"
The people around looked at Captain Lu's serious expression, their smiles faded, and they dared not make jokes out loud.
Old Liu stuck his neck out and said unconvincedly: "So what? When I was young, I also worked as a temporary worker in the county where houses were being built!
I can't climb high shelves or concrete, but it should be okay, right?"
Captain Lu looked at the stubborn Old Liu and said with some distress: "Xiao Ye called us at the beginning and asked for young and strong labor.
Because the deadline is approaching, this is not an easy job, so don’t mess around.”
The people around him also tried to dissuade him: "Yes, Old Liu, I think your youngest son wants to go with you. If all the laborers in your family leave, who will do the work?"
"Old Liu, let's stop thinking about this. We are old now, so we should just stay at home."
Old Liu was not willing to do so at all, and he shouted at the top of his voice: "Is there anything wrong with what I said? Besides, Lu Zhiye is a big boss, so why shouldn't he take care of the people in our village?
I'll go and help carry bricks and cement, and I'll be paid 5 yuan a day, right? "
Captain Lu didn't expect that he had this idea, and his smile gradually faded.
Looking at the crowd, many men in their 60s seemed eager to make a move.
Captain Lu's face turned completely cold. He walked to Secretary He and motioned him to stop what he was doing.
Then he stood up straight, picked up the small loudspeaker, and shouted to the crowd: "I'm going to say this today, if anyone wants to hit me, then I'll let Xiao Ye take care of them.
I advise you to quit as soon as possible. Is it easy for people to work hard alone out there?
Our country has a lot of things except a large population.
Not only in our province, every household has five or six children, but it is the same in other provinces.
Where can't he find workers?
Why did you call our village?
Does that mean we have to find someone from our group?
As a human being, the most important thing is to have a clear understanding of your own identity.
Don't take advantage of the favors given by others and get ahead of yourself."
Old Liu was scolded so badly that he lost all face. This Old Liu was the father-in-law of Aunt Mole.
He originally thought that his son and daughter-in-law had a good relationship with Lu Zhiye.
Then find him an easier job, 5 dollars a day, a month, that's 150 dollars.
By then, his two eldest grandsons will be able to get married!
