Chapter 04 Chapter 4

Su Rui didn't know that Su Hongpei had done something big.

She first patrolled the mountain where the militia was patrolling, then found the eggs she had hidden in the patrol cabin halfway up the mountain and cooked one for herself.

She gave the one to her elder sister the day before, so she will eat it herself today.

Where do eggs come from?

The two old hens can actually lay two eggs a day. As long as she insists on getting up first and taking the first egg and putting it in her pocket, no one will know that they can lay two eggs.

hey-hey.

When I returned to the cornfield to work, I found that everyone working in the cornfield was whispering to each other.

She was vain and afraid of getting tanned, so she wrapped a pink scarf around her head, revealing her beautiful almond eyes, and wore a straw hat on her head.

"What are you talking about?" It was windy today, and Su Rui, holding her straw hat, went to a group of people to ask.

"Sister Zhao and Guo Qingwang almost had a quarrel this morning, and they demanded that we get more work points. If we don't get more work points, we should start a labor competition in advance to convince the women comrades."

Su Rui suddenly pulled down the triangular bandage covering her mouth and nose and asked, "So are we going to compete or not?"

"Bi! Can't you see that they are already selecting people?"

"Chen Xianglan and Wan Zi's family have been called away. They said they want to compete in a one-dragon competition!"

"A dragon? What is this?"

Others don't know the whole story, but Su Rui does.

That's what she said, starting with cracking the cob and ending with shelling the kernels.

"I'll go take a look too." Su Rui dropped the sack and ran toward the edge of the field. As she ran, she pulled out an iron case with a dent inside from her pocket.

This is the corn cob holder she got from a blacksmith she worked for last year. She stuffed the sun-dried corn into it, and instead of using her hands to pick out the kernels, she just held the cob holder and twisted it a few times, and all the kernels would fall out.

She was able to come up with the idea of ​​a labor competition because of this secret weapon.

She caught up with Chen Xianglan, pulled her over, handed her the stick sheath, and whispered a few words in her ear.

"Are you coming down the mountain? Come on, we'll be waiting for you." Sister Zhao said directly to Su Rui, "You know about the competition, right? It will be held in your field, and you will be in charge of timing."

Su Rui said straightforwardly, "Okay, I'll go get the gong."

"Wait a minute." Sister Zhao said, "Look, is there anything else you want to say to everyone?"

Su Rui is very clever. This time she made special arrangements and let the acting team leader speak at such an important moment.

Su Rui thought for a moment and said, "I believe that the three elder sisters are as strong as them. Everyone must remember that even if you fall behind, don't give up. There is always a chance to win until the last moment! I will bring the women comrades to cheer you on!"

She also wanted to record the normal competition and submit it to the Women's Daily. If the situation spreads, it would be even better if some leaders noticed it. Sooner or later, the days of Guo Laozi's omnipotence would come to an end.

This is her final trump card!

Sister Zhao didn't know about Su Rui's tricks, so she nodded seriously and said, "Just go ahead and do it, don't worry about the consequences."

Su Rui naturally did not think twice before saying a few more words, took the copper gong, and hurried to the field she was in charge of.

The corn in Su Rui's field is growing well, thanks to the small farmers who guard the corn field day and night, catching pests, sparrows and mice. Even the height of the corn stalks is one hand higher than that of other people's fields.

When I arrived at the field I was in charge of, I soon found myself surrounded by many villagers, three circles inside and three circles outside, making it so tight that it was impossible to get out of the place.

About ten minutes later, Guo Qingwang came over with a heroic and high-spirited look after finishing a meeting with three male comrades from Qingnan Village.

Among these three, two are the brigade's "labor model soldiers", and one is tall and strong enough to hold two Chen Xianglans.

Su Rui picked up the copper gong and knocked it on the ground, attracting more people.

Seeing that most people had arrived, Guo Qingwang stood in the middle of the ground with his hands behind his back and began to speak.

Su Rui banged the gong vigorously, whether intentionally or not. Guo Qingwang stretched his neck and yelled until his throat was smoking. Finally, he waved his hands and said, "Okay, okay, the competition is divided into three parts, each lasting 15 minutes. Whoever does more wins."

Su Rui poked Yan'er from behind and Yan'er quickly stepped forward and asked, "What's the reward for winning?"

Guo Qingwang laughed and said, "We'll talk about it after you women comrades win."

Su Rui poked Yan'er again, and Yan'er said, "No, if we don't tell you about the reward, we won't have the motivation to compete!"

Su Rui immediately said, "Yes, there is no competition without informing the prizes in advance. Don't you agree?"

"Yeah, after all, it's better to say nothing than to say nothing. Isn't this just a waste of time?"

"Guo likes to keep things a secret and seems reluctant to give out rewards."

The women in Xiaoba Village were good at talking, and they were all talking at once. Sister Zhao wanted Guo Qingwang to speak out himself, so that he wouldn't regret it later, but she refused to speak out.

Guo Qingwang did have some bad intentions, thinking about not increasing their work points for the time being, so as to leave some room for maneuver.

But one of them told the truth. It seems that Su Rui did it again!

Wan Zi Niang, who was standing in the middle of the crowd, rubbed her hands and said, "I heard that this time they are going to increase the work points for us women comrades!"

The women in Xiaoba Village, who didn't know the details, were immediately furious!

"I can testify!" Seeing that Guo Qingwang remained silent, Su Rui raised her hand and waved, drawing the attention to herself.

She cleared her throat and said, "The captain said that if we win, we can get ten work points. I believe that after we win, Master Guo will definitely not regret it! Right, Master Guo?"

Guo Qingwang was furious. Seeing the women standing in the fields, on the ridges, and even on the branches of trees, he said helplessly, "Yes, yes, I will not regret it."

A young man who was competing in Qingnan Village shouted, "Why are you saying these nonsense? Win first and then talk about it. Hurry up and compete. If you delay your work, you women will not be responsible!"

Chen Xianglan spat on the ground and said, "When we women were working, you were still sucking milk from your mother's arms! When you drink water, you should remember the well digger. Now that you have grown up, have you forgotten to suck a woman's milk?"

The words were rude but the point was not. Su Rui covered her mouth and laughed with the women. The young gays had never seen such a scene before and their faces turned red with embarrassment.

Guo Qingwang pointed at the widows in Xiaoba Village and finally said, "You can't speak without a little bit of sex in your mouth, right?"

Wanzi's wife, like all the women in Xiaoba Village, only obeyed Sister Zhao and not Guo Qingwang. She pushed Guo Qingwang's arm away and said angrily, "Don't point fingers at me. Let's compete closely."

Guo Qingwang patted his sleeves in an unpleasant tone and said to the male comrades in Qingnan Village: "Show these old women a lesson. Let them lose happily, so that they will be convinced by the discipline of the brigade."

Many people from Qingnan Village also came to the scene. Instead of working, they would rather slack off with the masters. They are not good at other things, but they are the best at being sneaky and cunning.

Although those who came out to compete were considered relatively capable among them, how could they compare to the heroes of Xiaoba Village? They really did not regard themselves as women, and when they were working, they did not even regard themselves as human beings.

As they walked to the sacks one by one to fill them, the sisters tied the sacks around their waists and dragged them forward with their waist strength. Their eyes expressed doubts about the intelligence and waist strength of their men.

When they lifted two sacks and thought they had won, the older sisters grinned at them, then flexed their biceps, lifted three sacks with great strength, and walked briskly.

When they sat on the edge of the field, panting and pulling at their collars to catch their breath, the older sisters listened to the cheers and asked them if they would consider marrying into their family and enjoying a peaceful life.

...

The three matches left the men of Qingnan Village dumbfounded. Chen Xianglan, Liu Zhu, and Liu Minxi from Xiaoba Village swept the crowd and won three consecutive victories, giving the elders of Qingnan Village a resounding slap in the face.

Not only were these three people sweating physically, but they were also bleeding mentally.

After the game, all the masters fell silent.

Only Guo Qingwang jumped up and cursed: "You cheat and act slyly at ordinary times, and you cheat and act slyly in the competition too?! Good men, you are not as good as women, I wonder how you will be able to hold your heads up in the future!"

Su Rui cursed in a low voice: You deserve it for always being lazy and not doing your work.

As Su Hongpei said, the more you work, the more strength you have, and the more you save, the less you have. This statement was perfectly confirmed today.

After Guo Qingwang finished scolding them and reluctantly changed the "six" in the female comrades' column in the work point book to "ten", Xiaoba Village seemed to have ushered in another liberation.

Su Rui, who facilitated this event, smiled sweetly at everyone's excited faces. Suddenly, she felt someone pat her on the back and turned around to see Sister Zhao, who was relieved.

Sister Zhao said with emotion: "I want to thank you on behalf of everyone. If it weren't for your idea to promote the competition, the problem wouldn't have been solved so quickly."

Su Ruit understood what was meant, and took Sister Zhao's arm to the back of the cheering crowd, and whispered, "Do you have any other plans?" It was not written in the book, otherwise she would not have put so much effort into it.

Sister Zhao also said in a low voice: "I sent a letter of accusation to the township last month. He favors boys over girls and takes away women's work points. If he doesn't give an explanation, he will definitely be fired as the team leader."

It turns out that in the book, Guo Qingwang did not fall suddenly, but was reported by Sister Zhao!

Su Rui was happier now.

As expected, Sister Zhao was more successful, and her plan to expose the matter in a women's newspaper was much more appropriate. Their three villages are now prosperous, and the family scandal cannot be made public, so it is better to close the door and clean up!

Guo Qingwang was upset and took all the men in Qingnan Village to work elsewhere. He couldn't stand women being so arrogant.

Su Rui, on the other hand, thinks it would be better if there were no things that would bother her.

She was humming the cheerful "Female Militia of the Grassland". Just as she started, Sister Zhao interrupted her and said, "Go to the middle and sing for everyone!"

Yan'er squeezed out of the crowd, winked at Su Rui and said, "I've been a big help today, haven't I? Come and perform for me!"

“No big deal!”

Su Rui was not afraid of the stage. She walked to the middle of the crowd, stood on a wooden stake, clapped her hands, and said confidently, "Aunties, clap for me!"

Chen Xianglan and her friends won the competition and were heroes. Everyone gathered around them and gave them flowers. There were nothing else in the village but lots and lots of small grass flowers, which were extremely beautiful.

In addition to enjoying hero treatment, Chen Xianglan and her colleagues were also exempted from one day of labor by Sister Zhao, and they were so happy that they couldn't stop smiling.

Chen Xianglan's husband brought her a water bottle and said proudly, "It's warm water. Drink more. I've added sugar to it."

Chen Xianglan drank the sugar water generously, clapped her hands and shouted, "Comrade Xiao Su, come on and sing! You are our singer!"

Your mouth feels sweet after drinking sugar water.

Su Rui sang like a clear little oriole: "Standing on the grassland, looking at Beijing from afar, the red sun rises in my heart~"

......

"Chairman's thought has armed us, and the grassland women militiamen are brave and determined! ... They wield spears and ride horses with heroic spirit, and their battle songs shake the world!"

Her voice is clear, crisp and sweet, and her singing movements are characteristic of the times. Her slender figure and bright face are surrounded by a circle of golden light in the warm sun.

After singing "Female Militia on the Grassland", she sang "The Sound of the Spring". The cheerful tone made her excellent voice even more beautiful.

After singing the song, Su Rui bowed and jumped down from the stake amid the applause of the women.

Su Hongpei applauded her younger sister in the crowd, then turned around and nudged Su Chang'e with her arm.

"I heard from others that it was our little sister who proposed this competition!"

"oh."

Su Chang'e had just returned from her grandmother's house and saw Su Rui standing in the crowd singing, like a star surrounded by stars. She had a wooden face and was hit on the arm, so she clapped her hands expressionlessly.

Everyone rested for a while and were about to get back to work when a horn suddenly sounded from the side of the dirt road.

Although Xiaoba Village is not far from the county town, few cars come in. Behind it are barren mountains that have been reforested, and there are no roads for cars to enter.

Su Rui looked over anxiously and shouted, "Come here quickly, don't let the car hit you."

Maruko and a group of teenagers stopped chasing the exhaust of the military truck.

The other aunties and sisters looked over and wondered when the small dirt road in the village would lead to the military base.

Su Chang'e showed her off and generously told everyone the news she had gotten: "I heard that a troop is going to come to our mountain to do construction."

Others asked further: "What kind of construction can we do on the mountain in Xiaoba Village?"

Apart from the trees that Sister Zhao forced the women to return to the forest, there were no other resources. When we were planting trees, we were often laughed at by the men in Qingnan Village.

"Please don't cut down our trees." Su Rui went up the mountain to patrol every day. She especially liked the thriving trees on the back mountain, which were much better than the barren mountains in Qingnan Village.

"Don't spread rumors. We are not disturbing our mountain." Sister Zhao came over to explain to the women, "Didn't they say the construction corps would come to help us rebuild the dam two years ago? Last month I received a notice from the township to cooperate with the troops. I will hold a meeting with you when the troops' leaders come."

Su Rui was shocked. As a supporting actress, she was not in the main plot. It turned out that it was almost the hero's turn to come.

As they were talking, a large and imposing military truck passed by not far away, with people in green military uniforms sitting in the back of the truck.

The children jumped up and down and waved to their PLA relatives.

The women stopped and looked at the warriors in admiration.

The villagers of Qingnan Village who were working in the fields across the street tiptoed to look inside the carriage. Who didn't have dreams in childhood? Who doesn't feel grateful to the PLA in their hearts?

Behind Su Rui, Su Chang'e clenched her fists excitedly. She knew her future partner would be among these people.

Then she looked at Su Rui viciously. The prisoners who had followed the Construction Corps to open up wasteland would surely be here soon.
