099: Report your deeds to your leader
Yu Xiaoye took the things he needed, said hello to Lao Wu, and then left.
Jia Song walked back with her, and said with a relaxed look:
"Okay, if you want to use something in the future, just go and borrow it yourself."
"Thank you, Brother Jia."
Jia Song smiled and said, "Don't be so polite to me in the future."
"By the way, Brother Jia, if you're going to the field office, could you help me buy some things from the sales outlet and bring them back?"
"what are you looking for?"
In fact, Yu Xiaoye wanted to buy a lot of things, but he couldn't let others help him buy everything, so he only asked Jia Song to help buy a few important things:
"Please buy me a glass kerosene lamp, some lamp oil, and two boxes of matches."
"Okay, I'll remember that," Jia Song suddenly thought of something, "By the way, how about I take you to the field office and show you around? You can buy whatever you want."
Yu Xiaoye looked longingly. She was indeed very tempted and wanted to go to the field office, but in the end she shook her head:
"No, I have to go home and work."
"What kind of work are you doing? It's not too late to do it when you come back."
"No, I still have to go back to work. Just help me buy the things. I'll give you the money when you come back."
Seeing the girl's resolute attitude, Jia Song didn't want to force her, otherwise it would be bad if the girl suspected that he had some bad intentions.
"Oh well."
Yu Xiaoye returned home with the tools and started working with Yu Jiahui.
The two men first went to the river and dug a bag of yellow mud and brought it back. They also brought a bucket of water and mixed the wet and soft yellow mud into mud.
Then, Yu Jiahui scraped off the wall paint on the wall of the house with a shovel.
More than half of the wall paint had fallen off, and the rest of the wall paint fell down with a light scrape.
After quickly scraping off the old wall paint, Yu Xiaoye picked up the bucket and sprinkled water on the wall.
The purpose of sprinkling water is to make the newly applied wall more solid, otherwise the mud will likely fall off.
After sprinkling water, Yu Jiahui used a tile trowel to apply new wall paint.
Although he is not very professional in this, he doesn't need to be too professional. He can just apply a little bit of paint on the wall of his own house, the main thing is to make it smooth.
It took the whole morning for the father and son to finish painting the interior walls of the four earthen houses. They were ready to call it a day and paint the exterior walls in the afternoon.
The exterior wall is bumpy and uneven, and looks like a pile of mud piled together randomly, which is very unsightly.
Yu Xiaoye packed up his tools and thought about the meeting with Lao Pu in the morning, so he washed his hands and prepared to go to the canteen to wait for Lao Pu to come back from the fields.
Before he could even leave the house, Jia Song came back on his bicycle and rode straight into the yard:
"Yu Xiaoye, I bought something for you!"
Yu Xiaoye happily went to pick up her things.
Jia Song supported his bicycle with one foot and took out a bottle of lamp oil and two boxes of matches from his green military bag.
Yu Xiaoye asked:
"Brother Jia, where are the kerosene lamps? Are there no stock?"
"Well, a glass kerosene lamp is so expensive, it costs one dollar. I have an empty ink bottle in my office. I can make you a kerosene lamp out of it. It will be just as useful, but the capacity is too small. You'll need to refill it every two hours. But I don't think you can keep the lights on for that long at night."
Yu Xiaoye knew that Brother Jia was trying every possible way to help them save money because they were poor.
Yu Xiaoye had no choice but to accept Jia Song's kindness and took the lamp oil and matches from Jia Song:
"Thank you, Brother Jia. I'll trouble you. How much is it?"
"Matches are four cents, and the oil and the bottle are thirty cents. Next time the oil runs out, you can take the bottle and buy more oil. It'll be cheaper."
"Okay, wait, I'll get you the money."
Yu Xiaoye turned and walked into the house.
Jia Song said later:
"Don't worry, you can wait until your dad gets his salary before giving it to me."
"No, I still have the money."
Yu Xiaoye dug out a few cents in change from a pile of tattered luggage in the main room.
She hid most of her money in the space, leaving only a few cents in the small mud house. She didn't dare put it all in one place.
If you put everything in the space, what if the space suddenly disappears? If you put everything in the small mud house, what if the house is thieved or eaten by rats?
So put a little bit on both sides.
However, I don't carry any money with me because in the company, there is no chance to spend money. If I carry the money with me, it will be easy to lose it or wear it out.
She counted out thirty-four cents from the change and gave it to Jia Song.
Jia Song did not hesitate to accept the money and said:
"By the way, I went to the field headquarters today to report on my work, and I also reported your deeds to the leaders of the branch field."
"Huh?" Yu Xiaoye was surprised, his face confused. "My deeds, what deeds do I have?"
"Of course it's because you can sing, dance, and perform well."
“——”
"Let me tell you, I reported our company's grand performance this time. The leaders at the branch field didn't believe that we did it so successfully, but they should all remember you. Remember that our company has such a talented person." Jia Song's tone was very proud, as if he had done something very right.
But Yu Xiaoye felt something was wrong, so she gently reminded him:
"Brother Jia, there's no need. There's no need to report me. I was just fooling around."
"Your tricks are not just nonsense. Besides, others can't do it even if they want to!"
“——”
Yu Xiaoye really didn't know what to say.
This Brother Jia is so enthusiastic, too enthusiastic.
It’s no wonder that Yu Xiaoye is worried. If his name gets known in the branch and Li Xinchun happens to know about it, Li Xinchun might become suspicious.
Now the brothers Yu Daye and Yu Erye are both at Li Dasong's house in the ninth company. During this period, Li Xinchun
He must have gone back home, seen the two brothers, and knew their names.
If anyone heard her name again, Yu Daye, Yu Erye, Yu Xiaoye, anyone would suspect that these three people were from the same family.
By then it won’t be possible to cover it up.
I hope the leaders of the branch field will not take Jia Song’s words seriously.
Don’t take it seriously!
Also, don't take her seriously.
After Jia Song left, Yu Xiaoye also went outside the cafeteria and sat in the shed outside the cafeteria waiting for Lao Pu.
Cooking was going on in the cafeteria, and the aroma of the food made Yu Xiaoye salivate.
What kind of food did you cook today? It smells so fragrant and sweet.
Do you want to go home and get your lunch box, or come over and buy some food?
Just as I was swallowing my saliva, someone in the cafeteria called out:
"Girl, come here!"
Yu Xiaoye looked up and saw that it was the fat chef from the cafeteria calling her. She didn't know what was going on, so she quickly got up and ran over:
"Uncle Gong, what's the matter?"
The fat master's surname is Gong, and everyone calls him Master Gong. He is in his thirties and is the only person in the company who can be considered fat. Although he is said to be fat, he is not particularly fat at all. He is about 1.72 meters tall and weighs about 150 kilograms.
This height and weight would probably only be considered average in later generations, but in the 1970s, he would be considered a fat man.
Who says people are so slim these days?
