Shi Weiqiang had no idea why his elder brother was acting so secretly and not letting him speak, and he immediately looked unhappy.
The others ignored him.
The village party secretary continued, "Now Xiao Lu is living with the other female educated youth at the educated youth center, and Lu Fugui lives in the medical room. In short, they can only spend the New Year with the educated youth."
He sighed, "Zhentang, what's happened is over. Let's not take it to heart. The Lu family is in this state now, which is retribution. Don't damage your reputation for these trivial matters. Listen to your uncle's advice, okay?"
This matter will definitely not be let go like this.
Lu Juanjuan almost caused him to hurt the silly girl, and this account will be settled sooner or later.
He didn't care at all about what happened to the Lu family's house. Shi Zhentang just felt strange. It was too abnormal for a pack of wolves to enter the village.
There was not much expression on his face, and he said coldly: "Uncle, then we will go to the second commune to pull bricks first."
The village party secretary finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Well, go ahead. The county government is coming to provide vegetables this morning, and we'll have people continue building your house this afternoon."
The county supply and marketing cooperative's supply of vegetables before the New Year is entirely a local preferential policy.
Because the small mountain village has thick snow and long roads, and the commune here has not yet established a sales and supply outlet, this benefit measure will be implemented near the end of the year.
The villagers who received the notice went to the commune early.
If Yang Dahua wasn't afraid of something happening, she wouldn't have gone out just now.
After the three brothers and the village party secretary left the gate, Yang Dahua quickly called Shi Xiaoli and went out with the vegetable basket.
Su Zhen in the hut also boiled the eggs, and then called the two little ones to go to the commune with her.
Because this type of supply is different from a sales outlet, exchanging work points for them requires a complicated procedure, so all transactions are done in cash.
White flower costs three cents per pound, and whether there are other vegetables depends on luck. Besides, there is more than enough rice and noodles in the hut. I exchanged 50 kilograms of multi-grain noodles from Uncle Xu's family, which is enough for the New Year.
As for the rest, you can buy some in town after the New Year. By then, there will be no shortage of food, and the price will be one cent cheaper than the supply price.
There was already enough meat, so Lu Huanying asked Su Zhen to buy more vegetables.
The old lady had saved a few dollars, and she gave it all to Su Zhen, telling her not to worry about the high price of eggs, but to grab as many as she could, as they were needed to nourish the silly girl.
Su Zhen remembered the old lady's words and walked quickly on the road, fearing that she would be too late and would not be able to grab anything.
It was rare that the whole family left like this, and the Shi family's house was surprisingly quiet.
At the old lady's strong request, Tian Yuzhu ate all the brown sugar eggs, and then covered herself with the quilt and fell asleep.
At this moment, a woman's voice suddenly came from the yard, timidly and cautiously calling: "Yuzhu... Yu... Yuzhu."
Hey, who is calling her?
Tian Yuzhu sat up suddenly, the voice sounded familiar.
The old lady was a little slow before asking, "Who is it?"
The silly girl has already put on her shoes and gone out.
When she reached the door, Tian Yuzhu saw a skinny and haggard woman standing in the yard. She should be in her twenties, but judging from her eyes and overall mental state, it would not be an exaggeration to say that she was in her thirties.
Who is this person?
The other party opened his mouth in surprise when he saw her: "Are you Yuzhu?"
Tian Yuzhu suddenly found the other party's information from the original owner's fragmented memories.
The woman in the yard was called Tian Ying. She was her second elder sister from her mother's side. When she grew up, she married Zhou Ergou from the second commune.
Before Tian Ying got married, she took care of the young Tian Yuzhu at home. Although she was the second child in the Tian family, she was like an older sister to her and was very fond of her silly little sister.
In the old Tian family where men are superior to women, there has always been only mother Yang Xiu, second sister Tian Ying, and silly girl Tian Yuzhu. The three of them stick together for warmth.
When Tian Yuzhu received this information in her mind, she felt an inexplicable pain in her heart.
Tian Ying looked like a microcosm of all the suffering women of this era, standing in the snow, supporting her crumbling body with her cowardly soul.
"Second sister, it's me." Quickly calming down, Tian Yuzhu ran to the yard to pick her up: "Come on, second sister, go sit inside."
Tian Ying's eyes widened in surprise. Her eyes looked particularly large on her thin face. "Yuzhu, have you really become smarter?"
"Hey, who is this?"
Before Tian Yuzhu could respond, Lu Huanying's voice came from behind her.
The appearance of the old lady made Tian Ying a little nervous, and she quickly said, "Grandma, I am Yuzhu's second sister."
"Oh, really? Come in and sit inside. It's very cold outside." The old lady was surprised.
She had a grudge against the people of the Tian family.
If nothing else, it's because they didn't treat the silly girl as a human being. How could they just throw a human life away and run away? That's so unkind.
So the old lady's attitude towards Tian Ying was somewhat cold.
After entering the house, she couldn't bring herself to say goodbye, so she asked the silly girl to pour a bowl of hot water for her sister.
Tian Yuzhu somewhat understood the old lady's thoughts. In fact, the old lady felt sorry for her, and she understood that.
A bowl of hot water was quickly poured and Tian Ying held it nervously. She always had a small bag on her wrist, which contained three roasted sweet potatoes. She had originally brought them secretly to the silly girl without Zhou Ergou's knowledge.
But when he arrived at the cabin and saw so much smoked meat, Tian Ying felt that his sweet potatoes were not worthy of being presented.
She also felt that the old lady of the Shi family was not as enthusiastic about her anymore, so she thought about sitting for a while and then leaving.
For now, he could only bite the bullet and hold Tian Yuzhu's hand and tell her what happened in general.
It turned out to be a message from Tian Ying's uncle Tian Wang who returned to San Commune after attending the commendation meeting in Xinyi Town that day.
It is said that the silly girl is living a good life and has become smarter than before.
It was only at this time that Tian Ying found out that her father and elder brother had thrown the silly girl to Old Shi's house. She didn't expect her father and elder brother to be so cruel. As a sister, she was so heartbroken that she secretly wiped away her tears.
Well, today, the Second Commune also came to the First Commune to collect the supplied vegetables. She persuaded Zhou Ergou to agree to let her come and see the silly girl after much persuasion.
After hearing these words, Lu Huanying felt a little embarrassed. It turned out that she was also a miserable person.
The old lady quickly turned around and took out some sugar from the small cabinet: "Yuzhu, add a few spoonfuls of sugar to your sister's water. Go quickly."
"No need, grandma." Tian Ying felt embarrassed as to why he suddenly became so enthusiastic.
Tian Yuzhu understood the strangeness of it and couldn't help but laugh secretly. She took a spoon and added sugar to her sister's hot water: "Second sister, you drink it."
Tian Ying was so moved that tears welled up in her eyes. She had never eaten candy in the Zhou family in all these years.
What made her feel even more overwhelmed was that the silly girl had really changed and was like two completely different people.
Not only does he call her second sister, he is also so considerate.
But the silly girl's transformation must be inseparable from one person...
When Tian Ying thought of this, he quickly put down the bowl and got off the kang, then knelt down in front of the old lady with a bang: "Grandma, I will repay you for your kindness in my next life. If it weren't for you, Yuzhu would never have become smart!"
