Chapter 100 Chapter 100 Second Update

Autumn of 1976.

It was the harvest season, and the farmland of Yangliu Brigade was busy. Shen Moer was riding her bicycle past the rice field and was seen by the sharp-eyed Chen Yu. Classmate Maomao, who had grown into a young boy, immediately stood up and waved his sickle: "Sister Moer, Sister Moer!"

Shen Moer pulled the brakes and untied a net bag from the handlebar of the bicycle: "Come and get the oranges."

Chen Yu shouted happily and jumped out of the field like a little deer.

Zhou Zhaodi, who was busy cutting rice in another rice field, heard the sound. When she looked up, she saw Shen Moer on the village road and immediately jumped out like a rabbit: "Ah, Master, you are back!"

Zhou Zhaodi has grown a lot taller, her skin is slightly darker, but her facial features have grown up, she has a heroic beauty, and she looks like a graceful girl.

Jiangbei County still has a five-year elementary school, two-year junior high school, and two-year high school system. Starting this fall, Zhou Zhaodi and Chen Yu are already senior students in Qianjin Middle School. Zhou

Zhaodi has been hanging out with the cheerful and outgoing Chen Yu for a few years, and her personality has become much more lively.

Two years ago, when she was in junior high school, the girl mustered up the courage to ask Shen Moer if she was willing to accept her as a formal apprentice, like Zhou Pingan, who had offered tea and formally worshipped the master.

Shen Moer looked at the little girl's clear and bright eyes, revealing a trace of insecurity and uneasiness. After a few seconds of silence, she touched her head and nodded in agreement.

From then on, Zhou Zhaodi kept the word "Master" on her lips.

Shen Moer smiled at Shou Zhaodi and Chen Yu, whose faces were red from the sun, and said, "Okay, you can share the oranges with everyone, and come back to my house for dinner. I'll buy meat for you to replenish your body."

The two of them cheered again.

Chen Yu reminded her very tactfully: "Sister Mo'er, Fu Zhiqing has a piece of land at the foot of the back mountain. It is said that the seeds there are well selected, and the harvest is better than the land below! You came to the village right after returning from a business trip, you must want to stew meat for Fu Zhiqing, right?!" As he said this, he winked.

Before Shen Moer could speak, Zhou Zhaodi slapped Chen Yu on the back: "Why do you care about my master's affairs? Oranges can't stop you from talking. You really can't mind your own business."

The little girl looked at Shen Moer with admiration: "Master, you signed a lot of orders at the Canton Fair this time, right?"

Shen Moer laughed: "Yeah, a little more than last year."

Zhou Zhaodi immediately raised her fist: "Okay, then I want to harvest more rice too. Master, see you later!"

Chen Yu also ran back to the rice field: "Sister Moer, see you later!"

Shen Moer looked at the backs of the two energetic boys and girls, couldn't help laughing and shaking her head, stomped her feet and went to her own yard.

Zhou Zhaodi and Chen Yu returned to the rice field. Chen Yu called out, "Grandma, I'm going to sister Mo'er's house for lunch."

Aunt Chen, who was tidying up the straw stack not far away, said speechlessly, "How can you be so shameless as to say that you're going to Director Shen's house for lunch?" Chen Yu

didn't care: "What's wrong with the director? The director is also my sister Mo'er. She bought some meat and said she wanted to give us some supplements."

Mom was even more speechless: "Did you buy that for your supplement? It was obviously bought for Fu Zhiqing. Fu Zhiqing has been so busy lately that he has lost a lot of weight. Your sister Moer has come back from Guangzhou, and he has no time to go back."

Chen Yu chuckled: "Sister Moer bought a lot. Fu Zhiqing certainly can't eat that much. At most, she can ask my mom to buy some meat for Fu Zhiqing to cook another meal."

Aunt Chen shook her head: "You kid, let your parents settle with you later." As

the grandfather and grandson were talking, Cao Mei glared at her two grandsons, Shen Xiaowei and Shen Xiaojie, from the other side of a ridge and muttered, "You two are about the same age as Maomao, and you can get close to him even though he is not related to you. You are his nephews, but you don't know how to get close to him."

Shen Xiaowei was already fourteen years old, at the age when he was not obedient. Yan immediately said, "Who should be blamed? It's you. You stole food from Aunt Mo'er's family, causing her to almost faint in the field. How can they pay attention to us? Come on, don't think about these things. Aunt Mo'er said that as long as you have enough education and ability, everyone has the opportunity to enter the embroidery factory. Just don't do anything to hinder us."

Cao Mei was speechless by her grandson.

She and Shen Hongbing were not thoughtful people, and the only son Shen Jianhui was similar. However, this grandson was different from the family. It was not obvious when he was young, but after entering junior high school in the past two years, he suddenly became smart and stable.

Cao Mei was always fooled by Tian Fang in her early years. She was most afraid that her descendants would also be fooled by those people in the second son's family. Finally, there was a smart one in the family who almost obeyed the eldest grandson.

After hearing what the eldest grandson said, she thought about it and finally nodded: "Okay, grandma will listen to you. In fact, I have seen it over the years. Your aunt Moer is a broad-minded person. I have robbed her food. She probably won't forgive me, but she won't be angry with you. If you have the ability to pass the exam to enter the factory, she will definitely not set a trap for you."

In recent years, many workers have emerged from their village. Seeing other people's children working as workers to earn wages, while her own family is still facing the loess and digging the land, Cao Mei can't say that she doesn't regret it in her heart.

How could she be so blinded by greed that she bullied the father and daughter of Shen Laoqi?

But it was useless to regret. The father and daughter of Shen Laoqi would probably not forgive her for what she had done. Cao Mei now hoped that her grandson could pass the recruitment examination and become a worker. Coincidentally

, in another corner of the rice field, the family of Shen Yongjun, the second son of the Shen family, were also talking about Shen Moer.

Ma Dongxiang, the eldest son's wife, pouted and muttered, "Why are you so proud? He is just a factory director. People who don't know would think he is a county governor. He looks so noble all day long."

Li Ping, the second son's wife, did not even raise her head and remained silent.

Ma Dongxiang's eldest son Shen Minbing was sent to the police station for stealing bricks from Shen Moer's house. Later, he was fired from the ninth workshop at that time because he had a previous theft record but failed the political review.

After Shen Minbing was "imprisoned for the second time", he was unwilling to plant the land when he was released. He spent all day with a scoundrel from the Songshu Brigade. The two of them were stealing and doing bad things. Therefore, although Shen Minbing was in his twenties, he still hadn't found a partner.

It makes sense. Which good girl would be willing to marry a scoundrel?

But Ma Dongxiang didn't think her son had any problems at all. Instead, she put all the blame on Shen Moer and secretly hated Shen Moer.

But Li Ping couldn't empathize with Ma Dongxiang at all.

Her husband Shen Jianshe has been working as a warehouse keeper in the embroidery factory. In the past two years, his working experience has increased and his salary has increased a bit. According to her husband, Shen Moer only cares about work in the factory and never cares about anything else. No matter whether they have a good private relationship or not, she treats everyone equally.

Shen Jianshe works diligently, so he will not be deprived of any benefits in the factory.

Because Shen Jianshe has a salary, although he has to give some to his family, the majority of it goes to their small family, so their family has lived a really good life in the past few years.

If Li Ping really said that she didn't have time to thank Shen Moer, how could she be bashing Shen Moer behind her back?

Moreover, probably because she had money in her hands, Li Ping had seen more and more clearly in the past few years. Although her mother-in-law said nice things, she was actually evil-minded and had no sense of propriety. Although her father-in-law did not take the lead, he was actually in the same breath with her mother-in-law. The old couple were not good people. Li Ping now only wanted to separate from the family and live alone.

Seeing that Li Ping did not say anything, Ma Dongxiang secretly cursed in her heart, "Whoever gives you milk is your mother", moved her butt, turned to Tian Fang and said the same thing again.

Tian Fang was leading a little boy of about five or six years old to sort out the straw bales. From time to time, she would hold the boy who wanted to go somewhere else and say, "Pengpeng, don't run, just sit here."

The little boy's facial features were about sixty percent similar to Zhang Junliang's, but the most similar thing was the expression of looking down on everyone. He pouted and said, "I'm not a country boy, I don't want to do farm work!"

Tian Fang patiently coaxed him for a long time before he finally calmed down. After paying attention to her eldest daughter-in-law, she curled her lips and said, "What's so great about being a factory director? As a woman, she can't even give birth to a child. It's useless for her to be a county head. You see, these educated youths return to the city one after another. Fu Mingze is still from the capital. How can he stay here and want a woman who can't give birth to a child? Sooner or later, he will have to abandon her."

Ma Dongxiang believed it deeply. Thinking about the scene of Shen Moer being ruthlessly abandoned, she couldn't help laughing.

Zhou Zhaodi and Chen Yu, who were separated by a ridge, looked at each other. Zhou Zhaodi touched her arm: "Oh my god, I have goose bumps. Aunt Dongxiang's smile is really creepy." Chen Yu

nodded: "Like an old witch."

Aunt Chen commented: "I'm sure she's got something good to say."

Shen Moer rode her bicycle back to her own yard.

Two years ago, the courtyard was renovated again. The roof of the room where Shen Shaoyuan slept had several leaks, so they simply tore it down and rebuilt it. A green brick and tile house was also built. Now the whole courtyard looks more tidy.

Shen Moer put the meat, fish and tofu she brought in the stove, washed her hands, and went out to the room vacated by the brigade next door to see the production situation of the "extra-curricular workshop".

In the past two years, the policy has been relaxed, and the lives of these so-called landlords, rich peasants, counter-revolutionaries, bad elements and rightists have become much better.

For example, Old Wangtou in the cowshed on the right side of their house, after enduring one cold winter after another, was finally rehabilitated and returned to the capital before the arrival of last winter.

On the other side, the mother and son of the small landlord no longer had to do the dirtiest and most tiring work in the brigade. The small landlord Lin Kaicheng now did farm work with other ordinary members, and Lu Dongyun had become the backbone of the "extra-staff workshop".

Everyone was busy at first, and I don't know who was the first to see Shen Moer and shouted, "Director Shen."

Immediately, everyone looked out the door at once, and soon, everyone stood up and greeted Shen Moer happily.

"You are embroidering a new embroidery pattern, right? How is it? Is there any problem?"

Lu Dongyun said with a smile: "No problem, we have been taught it in detail before, how can there be any problem. Director Shen, you are back from Guangzhou, how are our factory's performance this year?"

Although they are not organized by the embroidery factory, Lu Dongyun has considered herself a part of the embroidery factory after doing embroidery work for so many years. They have work to do only when the embroidery factory performs well, and they also share the honor when the embroidery factory performs well.

Shen Moer said lightly, "Of course it's as good as always!"

She stayed here and chatted with Lu Dongyun and the others for a while, then went to her own private plot to pick some vegetables and went home to cook.

After cutting the meat into pieces and stir-frying it in a pan, she put white radish and mushrooms in it and made a stew. Because there was already stewed meat, the fish was braised, and the tofu was fried on a low heat until golden brown and then made into homemade braised tofu. Then she fried two vegetables and it was almost done.

While she was frying the vegetables, Shen Moer suddenly heard a burst of hurried footsteps outside, and then her family's Fu Zhiqing appeared at the door of the kitchen with sweat all over his head.

"Why did you come to the village?"

Fu Mingze looked at his wife carefully. He hadn't seen her for more than half a month. With such a high intensity of work, she should have lost weight. However, he looked at her and felt that she seemed to have gained a little weight.

It seemed that Guangzhou delicacies really suited his wife's taste.

Shen Moer quickly put the dishes into the plate and said as she did so, "You're very busy here, right? I heard from Dad that you've lost a lot of weight, so I quickly bought some meat to reward our hard-working Fu Zhiqing!"

In recent years, Fu Mingze has led the members of the Yangliu Brigade to set up experimental fields, optimized the water and fertilizer plans, and screened out a number of high-yield and disease-resistant varieties. In short, the results are remarkable. The Yangliu Brigade has now built more than 100 acres of municipal-level experimental fields.

Shen Moer turned her head to look at Fu Mingze, and hurried out: "Hurry up and wash up, you are sweating all over. Come over after you wash up, I have something important to tell you."

Fu Mingze was walking in, but he stopped and turned around and walked out: "Okay, I'll wash up first." They

haven't seen each other for more than half a month. He can't let his wife smell his stinky sweat as soon as they meet, right?

Fu Mingze was thinking in his heart whether he could squeeze out a day or two to go home and accompany his wife, while taking a quick battle bath.

When he came out, Shen Moer had already prepared the dishes and was carrying them out. Fu Mingze took them and asked as he walked, "What important thing do you want to tell me?"

Shen Moer smiled and said, "Guess?"
