Chapter 40 He will let her know what a good life is
Gu Qijiao did not say any more useless words to comfort Tong Dixin. She just hoped that her mother would appear soon and save her from the sufferings of this world.
"You can chop as much firewood as you want. It doesn't matter if it's not enough for food. I'll try to send you food in the evening. I'll also try to find out more about Shen Guidong."
"Goodbye, if you don't send me food, you'll get into trouble if someone finds out, and food is scarce... But you helped me find out about him, so help me."
As she spoke, Tong Dixin suddenly reached into her pocket, took out a small stack of money and put it in Gu Qijiao's hand.
Gu Qijiao quickly shirked: "I won't ask you for money, you can take it yourself!"
"I can't keep them. I used to leave them in the dormitory, but now I don't dare to do that. I don't know when the team will come to check my things.
I will be paraded through the streets, but I will be searched. If I leave it on me, it will be confiscated. I might as well give it to you as a thank you for helping me. "
Having said that, Gu Qijiao finally packed up the money.
When she goes to the city to study, there are many places where she needs to spend money, so there is no need for her to be pretentious.
After all, she helped Tong Dixin, delivered meals to her, and inquired about her man's news, all of which were risky.
Gu Qijiao didn't have to accept the money, but if she really accepted it, she wouldn't feel guilty about it. At worst, she could find a way to return the money to Tong Zhiqing when she made money in the future.
After accepting Tong Dixin's money, Gu Qijiao continued to cut grass for her pigs.
She didn't dare to get too close to Tong Dixin, for fear of being seen and gossiped about, so she walked a few hundred meters away from Tong Dixin.
Time was approaching quickly, and Gu Qijiao saw that there was almost no pig grass in the backpack. She couldn't carry any more, so she used a wooden stick to plug the pig grass in the backpack tightly, and went down the mountain with a sickle.
Tong Dixin was still chopping wood. Although she was much faster with Gu Qijiao's guidance, judging from the amount of firewood piled around her, it was still a bit difficult for her to make a living by chopping wood.
During the transformation period, we only had two meals a day, two steamed buns in the morning and a bowl of porridge in the evening. However, if we failed to complete the task, we would have nothing to eat in the evening.
Gu Qijiao didn't say hello to Tong Dixin again and went straight down the mountain.
She returned home and counted the stack of money that Tong Dixin had given her, and found that there were more than seven hundred yuan.
I know that in the countryside, an adult man can only earn a hundred yuan in work points in a year.
In other words, Tong Dixin gave all the money to Gu Qijiao at once, and it would take seven years for a laborer to earn back the money.
The girl said she had taken out so much money, which made Gu Qijiao even more certain that Tong Dixin had an extraordinary family background.
She put all the money in the drawer of her desk, together with the banknotes that Zheng Yun's mother had sent her.
Then Gu Qijiao went to the kitchen and started making steamed buns with the dough she had kneaded in the morning.
This steamed bun is not a big white steamed bun. It is made from a mixture of corn flour, bean flour, and sweet potato flour. It is truly a mixed flour steamed bun.
Big white steamed buns are generally unaffordable. Gu Qijiao ate big white steamed buns a few days ago because she was newly married, so her mother made some for her.
The amount of wheat flour and rice a family was allocated each year was very limited. No family could afford to eat pure rice and pure flour, so they had to mix them with other grains.
Zheng Yun had also finished work by now, and he walked into the village with Xu Jianan. As soon as they entered the village, the aunts and grandmothers began to inquire about Zheng Yun's family.
"Yun, you are usually very low-key. I didn't expect your family conditions are so good."
"Yes, Gu Qijiao boasted to us today that she was lucky to marry an educated youth, and her mother is a factory manager and accountant, and she is very satisfied with her!"
Zheng Yun did not say anything, but just listened quietly, but her heart was happy. She said in front of everyone that it was a good fortune to marry him.
He will let her know what a good life is.
