Seeing that he couldn't refuse, Mr. Lu Sanye had to accept the meat buns.
This scene in front of them was seen by several aunts who were listening to the excitement with their ears perked up.
Several people looked at each other.
"Oh, it seems that Lu Zhiye has been recognized by Xiao Wen's educated youth's family!"
"Isn't it? Otherwise, why would the uncle of this young educated youth Wen be so nice to Mr. Lu? Big meat buns, look at those white and plump buns, there must be a lot of stuffing inside."
"I guess so. Didn't you see that on the first day they came here, they scolded the educated youth Xiao Wen to death? Tsk tsk tsk!"
Cheng Lianxin ignored the inattentive looks of the few people and looked at Meng Xiuyuan with resentment. She thought Meng Xiuyuan had given her two extra meat buns.
After all, how can two meat buns fill you up? Didn't you hear her stomach growling a little now?
Alas, it was a wrong payment after all......
In Dahe Village, Wen Sihe was drying the quilts that had been used by several people at home.
As soon as they opened the bed where Meng Youdao and his friends slept, they saw ten brand new banknotes under the pillow, as well as a few meat tickets and industrial tickets.
Wen Sihe paused for a moment and picked up a letter that was underneath the money.
Wen Sihe knew the cover of the letter very clearly. It was the letter his mother had written to him.
It seems that Lu Zhiye had already shown the letter to the two elders yesterday.
I silently opened the letter. Inside was a letter written by my mother. After just one night, it had many more wrinkles on it.
At the bottom were two pieces of paper that Wen Sihe had never seen before.
After opening the letter, the first words at the beginning were from my grandson Wen Sihe himself, saying, "I feel deeply ashamed for this trip."
The words on the paper were written in thick, vigorous and powerful fonts, but occasionally the end of a few words hinted at the writer's hesitation.
Wen Sihe turned her eyes to the next piece of paper, which was written to her mother. She read it quickly and put it away.
She sat by the bed for a long time before silently putting all the money and bills into her cloth bag.
Lu Zhiye, who was sitting in the yard discussing with Fang Shijie about going to the army in the afternoon, waited for a long time but did not see Wen Sihe come out of the house.
He quickly stood up and walked in: "What's wrong?"
Wen Sihe turned her head, with traces of red in the corners of her eyes: "It's okay, the quilt is a bit heavy, I can't hold it, so that's why I was delayed."
Lu Zhiye rubbed her head, knowing that she didn't want to talk now, and didn't force her. He exerted force with his big hands and picked up the mattress and quilt.
They were hung one by one on the hemp ropes in the yard to dry.
In the afternoon, Fang Shijie came over happily, carrying a backpack and wearing a pair of new shoes.
He even showed off his new shoes to Wen Sihe and Lu Zhiye. Lu Zhiye also raised his foot slightly to show him his new shoes.
The stitches are so fine, I wonder how much better than Wu Yu's craftsmanship.
Fang Shijie made a cocky "tsk" sound, then walked into the mountains first with a backpack on his back.
The two of them picked up a lot of firewood along the way. Fang Shijie held a piece of dry grass in his mouth and asked casually, "If it is really Meng Deyi who did it, what will you do?"
Lu Zhiye chopped the axe on a dead tree. With such great force, he chopped the tree, which was as thick as his thigh, in just two or three strokes.
"What should we do? We should take revenge! Didn't we destroy Meng Yixing?
Based on Meng Deyi's many years of experience in both the military and political circles, either a new person should be selected.
Otherwise, they would set their sights on me. After all, the best way to deal with a potential threat is to keep it firmly by your side before it develops.
It all depends on what Meng Deyi does next. After all, my status is here. If he doesn't come, I can't help him, right?"
There was a hint of sarcasm in Lu Zhiye's tone, and he chopped the tree with even more force, which shocked Fang Shijie who was standing by!
He didn't expect Lu Zhiye to think so far.
After a long while, Fang Shijie sighed slightly: "Alas, we have been hanging around here for so long, this Yang Shulin should be here by now, right?"
Lu Zhiye put all the branches into the backpack, leaving only the bare trunk outside.
He looked calm and composed: "I guess he'll be here in a while."
Sure enough, just as the two men moved to fight another dead tree, Yang Shulin slowly walked out from behind a big tree.
It seemed that he had been standing silently not far from the two of them for a long time. Fang Shijie curled the corner of his mouth: Old fox, you won’t come out if we don’t talk, right!
"Captain Yang, what a coincidence." Fang Shijie threw the machete in his hand into the backpack and looked at Yang Shulin with a smile.
Yang Shulin looked at the two of them solemnly: "You have been wandering around for so long, aren't you just trying to lure me out?
Tell me, what's the matter?"
He leaned lightly against the tree, took out cigarette paper from his pocket, and then took out some fine tobacco leaves and rolled them into the paper. He knocked them against his palm a few times and then lit them near his mouth.
The whole person seemed to have taken off some shackles, feeling relaxed and comfortable.
Lu Zhiye did not shy away from Fang Shijie and went straight to the point and said, "My mother, Yan Wenqing, was it you and Meng Deyi who saved her?"
Lu Zhiye's question brought Yang Shulin back to seventeen years ago. It had been so long that he could no longer remember some things.
I only remember that Meng Deyi dragged me to patrol the border line, and I secretly mentioned that the Japanese had left a lot of things in this mountain!
This sentence aroused Yang Shulin's curiosity, so he followed Meng Deyi into the mountains.
Meng Deyi used the excuse of going to pee to leave Yang Shulin alone to warm himself by the fire at the foot of the mountain!
Who knew that not long after, he heard a woman's scream. He followed the sound and saw a woman in a tattered cotton jacket lying there with blood all over her head and face!
Yang Shulin was anxious and panicked at the time, thinking that this must be a villager from nearby. He would go back and ask the various brigades to find out whose young daughter-in-law this was.
When Meng Deyi came back, Yang Shulin had already carried the man to the firewood.
"Deyi, look at this, what should we do?"
"Let's take her to the hospital. She fell from such a height, the county hospital probably can't treat her. Let's bandage her first. I'm going to the city tomorrow, so I'll take her there to see a doctor."
Meng Deyi looked at the bloodstain on Yan Wenqing's face with regret in his eyes.
At that time, Yang Shulin didn't think much about it and thought that Meng Deyi was very thoughtful. It was so bloody and scary.
It is not certain whether he can survive. Who knows if Meng Deyi will never come back after he left.
Later, in occasional letters, Yang Shulin also mentioned this woman. Meng Deyi only said that she had lost her memory and was currently helping him take care of the children!
Yang Shulin also asked around secretly, and found out that no one in the nearby villages had reported a missing daughter or daughter-in-law, so he put the matter behind him.
Looking back now, I realized how stupid I was when I was in my twenties!
