048: Big pot, my wife is gone
If they were migrant workers fleeing famine, and someone named Zhou personally drove them here, how could this be the treatment a migrant worker could receive?
Also, Yu Jiahui's tone and demeanor when speaking give people the illusion that he is a senior veteran cadre.
Li Xinchun helped Yu Jiahui get out of the car, turned to look at Jia Song, saw Jia Song's confused expression, knew what he meant, and deliberately said:
"Director Zhou sent me here to work as a farmhand on your farm. Please have Captain Yang take good care of me. Don't let the director ask about it later. I won't be able to explain it to him."
After saying that, without waiting for Jia Song to react, he went to the back of the carriage to get his luggage.
Take down the shoulder pole and the camp bed.
Yu Xiaoye saw the camp bed and said to Li Xinchun in a polite manner:
"Brother Li, please return this camp bed to Director Zhou."
Li Xinchun shook his head:
"Director Zhou said that the camp beds are given to you as a gift, so you don't have to return them."
Yu Xiaoye didn't say anything, knowing that the other person was disgusted.
That's right. If it were her, she would lend the camp bed to someone else for use in the hospital, and who knows what infectious virus it might be contaminated with. If it were her, she wouldn't want it back, so she might as well just do a favor and give it away.
But to Jia Song, he was like, wow, someone named Zhou actually gave them camp beds. This is outrageous!
If they didn't have a special relationship, who would give such a valuable gift?!
Camp beds are not something you can buy whenever you want; they are military supplies used by the troops.
This guy surnamed Zhou is so bold that he relies on the fact that he was discharged from the army due to injury on the battlefield and has some merits, so he dares to give away military supplies indiscriminately. If it were someone else, who would dare to be so generous?
However, this family doesn't seem to have any special relationship with Zhou Ziheng.
After Li Xinchun dropped the person off, he didn't delay. He said hello to Yu Jiahui, got on the truck and left.
Yu Jiahui said to Li Xinchun with a smile:
"Xiao Li, take care—"
"Okay, uncle, come and play with me at the Ninth Company next door when you have time."
Yu Jiahui’s inner thoughts: Damn it, I don’t want to play with you.
After the truck left, Yu Jiahui looked at Jia Song, and with an honest and simple smile on his face, he took the initiative to greet him:
"Hello, Secretary Jia. Let me introduce myself. My last name is Yu. I will be a farm worker in the Eighth Company. This is my wife and this is my daughter. Please take care of her."
Jia Song half-closed his eyes and looked at Mr. Yu, who had become the host. Somehow, Jia Song felt that he was the newcomer.
Jia Song scratched his head, took off the half-smoked cigarette stuck in his ear with a melancholy look on his face, took out a match and lit it again.
————
On the other hand, let’s talk about Li Xinchun.
Li Xinchun was very relieved to have safely delivered the person to the Eighth Company. Finally, this troublesome matter was resolved satisfactorily.
This matter is all thanks to Director Zhou. If Director Zhou had not taken responsibility for him, helped to advance the medical expenses, and helped to arrange a job, who knows how this family would have blackmailed him?
Fortunately, we met an open-minded and responsible manager who solved the problem satisfactorily and the family did not cause any trouble.
Looking at the sun above my head, it was almost noon, so I was not in a hurry to go back to the field office. I might as well go home first.
His home is in the Ninth Company, which is a few miles away. It only takes a short drive to get there. He can go home to have a meal before leaving. By the way, he can go back to the company to visit the young educated youth in his family, hehe.
Li Xinchun drove the truck back to the Ninth Company.
When I arrived at the gate of my yard and just stopped the car, a tall and burly man with a silly look on his face ran towards the truck, holding a large piece of wet mud in his arms, which made the front of his cotton jacket muddy.
When Li Xinchun saw this scene, he couldn't help but frown.
This person was none other than his silly younger brother Li Xin'an, nicknamed Anzi.
An Zi has a chubby head, squinty eyes, big buck teeth, an upturned nostril, and drool always flowing from the corners of his mouth.
Every time Li Xinchun saw his brother's appearance, he always suspected that this brother must have been picked up from that mountain village and was definitely not his biological brother.
How could his own brother look like this?
How could he be a fool?
If it weren't for this silly brother, with his favorable conditions, he would have been married and started a family long ago.
Because of this silly brother, he dared not make friends with those beautiful girls, for fear that when it came to the stage of discussing marriage, people would find out that he actually had a silly brother and they would definitely not be happy.
So Li Xinchun has been neither too high nor too low and is still single.
Alas - it brings tears to my eyes just talking about it!
Just as I was feeling melancholy, Anzi came running over and kept shouting:
"Cauldron—Cauldron—"
Li Xinchun lectured with a stern face:
"Where did you get this mud? Throw it away!"
Anzi snorted reluctantly:
"Don't throw it away. This is a mud lump I made by peeing twice. No, one and a half. I lent the other half to Maodan."
“Throw it away!!!”
Anzi was so frightened by his elder brother that his hands trembled and the mud in his hand fell directly to the ground. He looked down with a heartbroken face at the mud block he had been playing with for half a day, which had been smashed into a mud cake. He was so sad that he wanted to cry.
But when he looked up and saw Da Guo's face, which was a bit scary, he stopped talking again and could only hum softly with his buck teeth pursed.
Li Xinchun said nothing more and turned to walk home.
Anzi caught up with Daguo again:
"Big pot, my wife is gone, my wife is gone!"
Li Xinchun didn't want to pay attention to this silly brother, but he was very curious. This brother wandered around every day and often heard some gossip, so Li Xinchun couldn't help asking:
"What daughter-in-law is gone? Whose daughter-in-law is it?"
"My wife."
"You?!" Li Xinchun stopped and turned to look at his silly brother. "You don't have a wife. Where did you get one?"
"I have a wife, my mother said, I have a wife
Wife, but my wife, is lost, lost, woo woo woo, I don’t have a wife anymore, big pot, I don’t have a wife!”
Li Xinchun couldn't stand his brother's noise and scolded him:
"Don't cry, or I'll beat you up!"
An Zi could only shut up again in frustration.
When I entered the yard, I saw my mother Cai Honghua digging the ground, preparing to plant vegetables.
Cai Honghua saw her eldest son driving back from the yard. Normally, she would have happily gone out to greet him, but today she didn't. Instead, she looked worried and only raised her head to ask:
"Why are you back at this time?"
"It's okay," Li Xinchun asked back, "Mom, Anzi just told me that his wife is gone. What's going on?"
Cai Honghua sighed heavily, leaning on her hoe and said:
"Forget it, at this point, I won't hide it from you anymore."
Li Xinchun: "-------"
I always feel like there's some bad conspiracy going on!
In the yard, Cai Honghua told her eldest son about the marriage they had arranged for her youngest son through a letter.
Li Xinchun lost his composure when he heard this:
"What? My marriage isn't settled yet, and you're helping him find a wife first?!"
