However, it is undeniable that Tang Baozhu was truly moved.
This shows that they keep you in their heart at all times, so you have no worries. It's so thoughtful.
Although Tang Baozhu had plenty of these things in her space, they were still a token of someone else's goodwill, and she was overjoyed.
"Thank you, Brother Su. You're so thoughtful. But please don't do this again. You're already so tired after work every day, and you still fish for me to replenish my energy. By the time we get back, it's already dark. It's really too unsafe to go up the mountain to chop firewood again. It's just that we came too late this year and didn't prepare much. Starting next year, I will prepare these things in advance so that you won't have to work so hard."
Su Rui'an nodded, neither agreeing nor disagreeing.
He just felt that the girl was really too good. She didn't look down on him, a person who had been sent down to the countryside, and was dating him. If he didn't treat her well, what if she didn't want him anymore? Where would he find a wife?
Tang Baozhu could tell at a glance that he had listened but wasn't going to change his mind. Although she felt quite sweet inside, she didn't want to tire him out.
I plan to be more diligent in the future and never let myself lack anything, so that he won't have to work so hard.
Besides the grain that everyone was to receive, a portion of the grain in the village was kept in the warehouse as reserve grain, and more than half of the grain was handed over as public grain.
After delivering the grain, Zhao Lidong quickly gathered everyone to prepare for the distribution of the grain. It was all calculated according to work points, and those with more work points could even receive some money.
Most of the people in the village had just moved here and hadn't accumulated many work points. Most of their work points were earned during the autumn harvest.
If the grain were distributed according to work points, they would definitely starve to death. So Zhao Lidong was quite humane and allowed them to borrow grain, but they had to repay it the following year. If they didn't repay it, the grain would be deducted from their share when they were distributed.
Tang Baozhu didn't have many work points, so she just bought some grain as a token gesture to let everyone know that she had bought some. Anyway, there was so much grain in the space that she wasn't worried about going hungry.
When it starts to snow, most people prepare to hibernate, but some more diligent people will go hunting in the mountains or fishing in the rivers and lakes.
About an hour away from the village, there is a very large lake, at least a hundred acres in size, with a small island in the middle of the lake. People who want to eat fish will go there to fish.
The villagers used to be very domineering. Only villagers could go fishing there; anyone else who went would have their fishing rods confiscated and might even get beaten up.
After Zhao Lidong became the brigade leader, he immediately allowed everyone to go fishing and earn their own food, and no one was allowed to cause trouble. Of course, the people in the cowshed had no chance to go.
Actually, Tang Baozhu living alone in the newly built house made it convenient for her and Su Rui'an to date. After all, she didn't have many friends, and no one would come looking for her if she lived outside, so she didn't have to worry about being discovered by others.
When Tang Baozhu and Su Rui'an were dating, they always kept it a secret. Fortunately, by having the puppet go around using the Heavenly Thunder Talisman to strike down bad guys, they instilled a sense of awe in everyone.
Whether they were educated youth sent to the countryside or intellectuals sent to cowsheds, they are all living pretty well now.
This gave Su Rui'an time to visit Baozhu often. Perhaps because he felt Baozhu was too young, Su Rui'an, who was so much older than Baozhu, subconsciously took extra care of her.
They provided her with three meals a day. If Tang Baozhu hadn't objected, they probably would have even taken her clothes to wash. They would even go hunting and fishing to provide her with extra food. When there was no food, they would secretly go to the black market to buy food for her. Baozhu didn't have to worry about anything.
Sometimes Tang Baozhu felt like she wasn't dating someone, but rather finding herself a father figure, but she still found it quite nice.
Being pampered and cared for wholeheartedly, all I have to do is be a useless piece of trash and let myself go.
Fortunately, Tang Baozhu felt that she was a grateful person and was worried that he would overwork himself, so she secretly gave him a health-strengthening pill, which made him feel less tired no matter how hard he worked.
Not to mention that after their strength increased, they caught much more fish in the mountains and rivers, and earned much more money.
He himself still wore clothes with patches and ripped edges, but after making money, he bought Baozhu a lot of clothes. He even bought her two lipsticks, which are very precious in this day and age.
Not to mention other cold creams, skincare products like Wan Zi Qian Hong.
Although these things don't look expensive now, they are the best Su Rui'an could find. He wanted to give Baozhu everything he could so that she wouldn't regret being with him.
He always felt indebted to Baozhu, feeling that his current status prevented them from being together openly, and that Baozhu was truly being wronged.
That's why he treats her so well without considering anything else.
Tang Baozhu was extremely satisfied with his appearance and even more satisfied with her own judgment.
Although she initially set her sights on Su Rui'an out of greed for a little merit, she later became lustful towards him after seeing how handsome he was.
Now I'm really starting to care about him as a person, and I've put him in my heart.
To prevent him from continuing to suffer in the cowshed, Tang Baozhu directly ordered the puppets to bestow a Heavenly Thunder Talisman upon the few ill-intentioned individuals at the very top.
These were all top-ranking officials; for them to be struck by lightning was no small matter. This shows that their previous decision to demote those people was a mistake.
Gradually, fewer and fewer people were sent down to the countryside. By 1971, when Su Rui'an had died a martyr, there were hardly any people left to be sent down.
Even those with only a little bit of family connection began to slowly restore their reputations, and some even started to go back home.
Su Rui'an was also very excited when he first heard the news. He felt that God still had eyes and made those malicious people suffer retribution.
He figured he wouldn't have to wait long to get back, so after receiving the news, he immediately picked up Tang Baozhu and spun her around in a big circle.
