It was already evening when I got home.
As soon as you walk into the house, you can smell the strong aroma of rice.
Jiang Wanyue's eyes lit up: "Huaizhi, are we having rice tonight?"
Normally, she was the only one willing to eat such fine food, but unexpectedly Huaizhi was also generous for once.
Song Huaizhi took a bite of rice and looked up and said, "When I was sweeping the floor, I saw a bag under the bed. I dragged it out and saw that it was full of rice, so I cooked some."
Jiang Wanyue's mouth froze.
That was the rice produced from the cornucopia. There was no place to put it, so they stuffed it under the bed, but it was still discovered.
She lowered her head and smiled, "I bought it a few days ago, and I hid it because I was afraid it would be stolen."
"There is not only rice under the bed, but also flour, twisted dough sticks, crispy cakes, and a lot of mung beans and peanuts..." Song Huaizhi said calmly, "I also saw fifty or sixty eggs."
Jiang Wanyue: “…”
It's over.
It turned out that I couldn't hide it anymore.
Living under the same roof, sleeping in the same bed, and being able to keep it a secret for so long is actually great, isn't it?
After Jiang Wanyue made the decision, eating became much easier.
After dinner, she asked Yingzi to take Huazi outside to play, and then she took her eldest son into the room and closed the door.
"Huaizhi, since you've discovered it, there's no need for me to hide it anymore." Jiang Wanyue took the key off her neck. "A while ago, I found something strange about our wash basin. After trying it a few times, I found out that it was a treasure bowl. No matter what you put in it, after a while, many identical things will appear."
Song Huaizhi's usually calm face suddenly showed shock.
He was temporarily unable to understand what this meant.
But when he opened the cabinet and saw a large bowl of eggs, he understood.
“This, this…”
He was a little speechless.
This was too outrageous and completely different from what he had expected.
"Huaizhi, there are more and more things at home, and it's getting harder and harder to hide them. I'm also worried." Jiang Wanyue pressed his shoulders, "From now on, keeping secrets will be left to you."
She is getting busier and busier and spends less and less time at home, but the treasure pot needs to be cleaned out every once in a while. It would be good if she confessed this to Huaizhi so that she doesn't have to act like a thief every time.
Song Huaizhi's brain no longer knew how to think.
"We have enough food at home now. We can eat whatever we want and even sell it out for money, but we have to be careful." Jiang Wanyue said earnestly, "Mom will tell you a story called 'Possessing a Treasure'. It says that in ancient times, there was a man..."
After the story was told, Jiang Wanyue fell asleep.
Song Huaizhi couldn't sleep.
He looked at the supplies hidden under the bed and felt overwhelmed.
It's impossible to hide it here. Anyone with a keen eye can find it by just flipping through it.
Where is it hidden?
There are so many eggs at home, I have to find a chance to sell them to the supply and marketing cooperative.
I didn’t think there was anything wrong with selling eggs before, but now I’m always afraid of being suspected.
He and Yingzi had both been there once, so he couldn't go again. He had to find a way to get a classmate to go for him.
My mother is a teacher and she also has to help the team solve problems. She is too busy. I will leave these things to him in the future.
Song Huaizhi didn't sleep well that night and kept thinking about these things.
When he woke up, Jiang Wanyue was no longer at home.
She and the branch secretary Tian Youliang, each carrying two yuan of funds approved by the accountant, walked towards the commune.
When they arrived at the commune, it was just dawn and the two of them prepared to take the earliest bus to the county town.
When passing by the gate of the commune department, Secretary Qin just happened to walk out.
Tian Youliang felt guilty and was frightened. He instinctively lowered his head, pretending that he was just an ordinary member, and strode forward.
But after taking two steps, he immediately remembered that the brigade was about to open a factory and they had to come to the commune to get a certificate. This matter could not be concealed at all, so he turned around smoothly, put on a smile, and was about to greet Secretary Qin.
At this time, Jiang Wanyue had already walked up: "Secretary Qin, good morning."
Secretary Qin stared at her for a while, but couldn't remember who she was.
"I'm Jiang Wanyue, an educated youth from Xiaojing Brigade. Last time, I got a ride with the secretary." Jiang Wanyue said with a smile, "This is Secretary Tian from our brigade."
Tian Youliang stepped forward and said, "Good morning, Secretary."
Secretary Qin suddenly sneered: "I have heard about the meeting held by your Xiaojing Brigade yesterday. You dare to do such a thing, who gave you the courage!"
Tian Youliang's neck shrank.
"Secretary, we have no other choice." Jiang Wanyue sighed, "The diesel engine of the brigade broke down. We asked many people to fix it, but none of them could fix it. We had no choice but to go to the provincial government to buy parts, but we had no money. After much thought, we decided to use the fish in the village. Fish will be gone once they are eaten, but the diesel engine can be used forever. I think the secretary will understand. If it really doesn't work, we can only ask the secretary for help and ask the commune to allocate funds for us to repair the diesel engine."
Secretary Qin said in a cold tone: "Is this a threat to me?"
"No, she is young and ignorant..." Tian Youliang was so scared that he was sweating profusely, "She, she meant that, Secretary, you know, she didn't mean any harm..."
After talking about it for a long time, I still can't make sense of it.
"Alright!" Secretary Qin said coldly, "This matter has a huge impact. You should report to the commune first instead of acting on your own. The commune is not unkind!"
"I'm coming!" Song Dahai came running over, sweating. "Secretary, you misunderstood. We had a meeting yesterday and agreed that I would go and report to the secretary. I was delayed this early in the morning. Secretary, this is the paperwork for our factory..."
