Chapter 19 Chapter 19 The famous rat shit
Hearing Han Lin say this, Yang Dai was stunned for a moment, nodded and said nothing.
When he was hospitalized, Yang Dai paid the medical expenses in advance, but when Li An came to their house before, she had already paid the money, and it was exactly the same.
There were various reasons why Yang Dai suggested going to the hospital to see the mother and son.
The mother and child took themselves to the hospital. Yang Dai felt that it would be more humane to help them to the end and then go to see them herself.
And according to what Ang Lee said before, that mother and son have a great background.
Yang Dai didn't intend to curry favor with anyone she saw. She just thought it was better to make friends than to make enemies.
She and Han Lin both knew that sometimes a word from the superior could easily change the status quo of the inferior, whether it was success or failure.
But it is obvious that the two of them do not have such luck now, and Yang Dai no longer pays attention to it.
After all, she is now busy with serious work.
After breakfast, Yang Dai came to Zhu Qingguo and received supplies from him.
"We don't have much stuff, so you must think carefully before you start painting." Zhu Qingguo remembered the way Yang Dai wiped and painted yesterday, and reminded her with some concern.
Yang Dai took the thing, frowned uncomfortably, and quickly relaxed her brows.
Although she had been reminded that the smell was not pleasant, thinking that she would be living with this thing for the next few days, and for the sake of her nose, Yang Dai decided to speed up and complete the task as soon as possible.
Yang Dai's mission did not attract much attention in the brigade. Although Yang's mother and Han's mother tried their best to promote it, everyone was not optimistic about Yang Dai's propaganda poster this time.
Many people think that Yang Dai’s article being published in the newspaper was just a lucky coincidence.
There were also some people with a strong sense of responsibility who specifically approached the team leader and told him that it was a completely wrong decision to assign the team's propaganda task to Yang Dai.
But these people were rebuked by the captain's few words.
"Can you read? Can you draw?"
"If Yang Dai is not allowed to do publicity work, can you take over this job?"
If you can do it, do it. If you can’t, just watch and endure it, and don’t complain behind their backs.
Yang Dai was completely unaware of the commotion caused by a small group of people in the Huangzhuang Brigade.
She endured the pungent smell and was busy all day, and when she got home she didn't want to move at all.
Fortunately, both Yang's mother and Han's mother seemed to think that their sons and daughters were capable, and that capable people should be treated preferentially.
The two of them delivered food to the door at the same time, and even met at the door and exchanged a few words.
The two of them agreed that Han Lin was working as a temporary worker in the county town these days, and Yang Dai also had serious work to do, so the two of them would be responsible for delivering meals.
Yang's mother delivered lunch and Han's mother delivered dinner.
Yang Dai declined several times but failed, but agreed to give her food or food coupons.
"Yang Dai, are you home?" A voice came from the yard again. It sounded familiar, but Yang Dai couldn't remember who it was for a moment.
When I walked out the door, I found that it was Xia Ziqing.
"Ziqing, why are you here?" Although Yang Dai felt confused by Xia Ziqing's kindness to her from the beginning.
But he never refused, and after several contacts, the two became much more familiar with each other than before.
"I heard that you took on the propaganda task of our team, so I came to see you. Are you tired?" Xia Ziqing did not come empty-handed, but brought a bag of fruit.
"Today is the first day, it will be fine after that." Yang Dai was actually very tired and didn't want to say anything extra to anyone.
But she would never complain so directly to Xia Ziqing.
And it was all Yang Dai's own fault that she was so tired.
According to yesterday's plan, Yang Dai would take twenty days to complete the promotional image.
But after feeling the pungent smell today, Yang Dai decided to cut the time in half.
I would rather be a little tired every day than endure the pungent smell for a long time.
"I heard that thing has a strong smell, so I brought a mask with me. Do you want to try it? Maybe it will make you feel better." Xia Ziqing said as he took out a mask.
Yang Dai took the mask and said, "This thing is really useful to wear. Ziqing, you are really creative." Yang Dai looked at the slightly simple mask and remembered that when she went to the hospital before, the doctors and nurses she met were all wearing this thing.
"With your help, my work will definitely progress faster." The more Yang Dai looked at it, the more she liked it. This thing is not difficult to make, and it can indeed block a lot of smells after wearing it.
The only downside is that it can feel a bit stuffy if you wear it for a long time.
But she would rather hold it in than smell the pungent smell for a long time.
"As long as you think it's useful, but this thing needs to be changed frequently, otherwise it's unhygienic." Xia Ziqing originally wanted to say that it would be best to change it to a new one every day, but thinking of the current situation, she didn't know much about Yang Dai's situation, so she held back the words in time.
"Those paints not only emit odors, but also emit toxic substances. Although our team's propaganda mission is important, the most important thing is our own health." Seeing Yang Dai accept the masks he gave her very kindly, Xia Ziqing felt that his plan was one step closer and his relationship with Yang Dai was even closer.
She remembered that in her previous life, there were no such things as masks, and Yang Dai even fell ill because of this publicity mission.
It's not a serious illness, but it's very irritating, especially when the seasons change. The coughing keeps happening and my eyes become more sensitive.
Yang Dai and Han Lin, a married couple, tried many prescriptions for this disease and visited many hospitals in the commune, county and city, but all of them only treated the symptoms and not the root cause.
The symptoms were under control when I was taking the medicine, but after I stopped taking the medicine, there was no improvement at all.
This disease tortured Yang Dai to the point of excruciating pain. She spent at least four or five months out of the twelve months of the year recuperating at home.
Because of this, there were many rumors in Huangzhuang Brigade, saying that Yang Dai was pretending to be sick. She was obviously born into a poor peasant family, but she insisted on pretending to be a bourgeois lady.
At that time, the couple's reputation in Huangzhuang Brigade had improved, but because of this incident, it fell back a lot.
Two years later, Yang Dai's relationship with the comrades who were sent to the cowshed became better and better. An old Chinese medicine doctor in the cowshed finally extended a helping hand to Yang Dai and cured her illness.
It is said that the old Chinese medicine comrade had very high medical skills. After he was rehabilitated and returned to the city, some people wanted to transfer him to the side of the big leader to take care of his health, but he refused and finally chose to teach at the University of Traditional Chinese Medicine. He also maintained a good relationship with Yang Dai and her husband.
After Xia Ziqing was reborn, in addition to making up his mind to make friends with Han Lin and Yang Dai, he also considered whether he should show goodwill to several comrades in the bullpen in advance to expand his own network.
But this idea was quickly rejected. It was too risky to interact with the people in the bullpen at this time.
Besides, she was just an educated youth who went to the countryside, not a native of Huangzhuang Brigade. It was not a good thing for her to be too prominent in Huangzhuang Brigade.
When Xia Ziqing reached middle age, she sometimes couldn't help but wonder whether all the good luck in her life was spent on becoming a teacher after going to the countryside.
The teachers in the brigade primary school did not have heavy teaching tasks, were given generous work points, and were respected when they left. After going to the countryside, Xia Ziqing did not suffer any hardship because of this job, and lived better than most educated youth.
But after the college entrance examination was opened, she took the exam three times in a row but was never admitted to a university.
After the 1980s, even those educated youth who failed to get into university found ways to return to the city, but I was the only one trapped in Huangzhuang Brigade.
It was not until 1985 that the environment was completely opened up and she became the last educated youth from Huangzhuang Brigade to return to the city.
After returning to the city, there were many frictions at home and I couldn't live there anymore. I married my husband through an introduction, and everything was fine at first.
However, two years after their marriage, the couple saved money to start a business, but not only did they fail, but they also fell into debt, and the husband never recovered.
I was muddle-headed and paying off my debts until middle age, when I suddenly saw two familiar faces in the news.
After seeing the names, Xia Ziqing vaguely remembered that these two people were fellow villagers from Huangzhuang Brigade.
Before they got married, they were both well-known "bad apples" in the brigade, but after marriage, they were reborn. In a few years, they left the Huangzhuang Brigade. Later, they took advantage of the spring breeze of reform and became more and more powerful.
After reading the news, Xia Ziqing felt envious. He learned more about the two people's experiences in previous years, and his envy grew deeper and deeper.
At that time, Xia Ziqing would spend her free time reading novels. In her opinion, Yang Dai and Han Lin were just like the male and female protagonists in the novels. They were successful in everything they did and were naturally blessed by luck.
Xia Ziqing didn't know why she was reborn, but she made a perfect plan for herself - to find a big shot.
She didn't have much luck, so she just kept good relationships with lucky people and followed them. With her experience from her previous life, she wouldn't fall into the ditch again.
So after arriving at Huangzhuang Brigade, she tried her best to make friends with Yang Dai.
Xia Ziqing looked at the time and felt that he had said everything he needed to say. If he stayed any longer, he would probably run into Han Lin, so he said goodbye from home in time.
After all, Yang Dai looks friendly and easy to deal with, while Han Lin seems difficult to deal with.
The last quick meeting had already frightened Xia Ziqing, and she didn't want to deal with Han Lin in the short term.
After sending Xia Ziqing out, Yang Dai took out a piece of inconspicuous but breathable and comfortable fabric from the warehouse, preparing to sew a few more masks to wear in rotation.
However, it was getting dark, and neither the kerosene lamp nor the candle was bright enough. For the sake of her eyes, Yang Dai decided to go and ask about electricity at home after completing this publicity mission.
If the brigade is willing to use the electricity supply as a reward, Yang Dai will definitely be happy to accept it.
Yang Dai was relaxing in the yard, and Han Lin pushed the door open and walked in with a full sense of achievement.
Yang Dai glanced at the backpack behind him. There was pork on the top, and small things like pheasants and rabbits were placed in the separated area below.
Eating things like pheasants and rabbits occasionally is fine as a novelty, but after seeing them so often, Yang Dai lost interest.
Fortunately, Han Lin also brought another piece of news. He had already agreed with the people in the supply and marketing cooperative that he could take the furnace home tomorrow by getting the industrial coupons.
