Chapter 2.2. Bridge Commune
Liu Qianqian screamed, "Malted milk costs over ten yuan and requires a ticket. Where can we get it?"
Originally, the team leader also felt that his sister-in-law was being unreasonable, but as soon as Liu Qianqian opened her mouth, he was unhappy. He said that if these two people had not been involved in such an immoral affair, these things would not have happened. "If you don't have malted milk, then you have to compensate me with 100 eggs and 10 yuan."
The supply and marketing cooperative buys eggs for three or four cents, so 100 eggs is three or four yuan, and adding ten yuan is about the same as a can of malted milk. Shi Liu was immediately satisfied and nodded to his mother.
Su Sanlan was still a little dissatisfied, but since her daughter had agreed, she could only accept it: "There is one more thing that needs to be dealt with. Shizhu, your engagement with our Shiliu is hereby annulled. From now on, no one will get married and we will have nothing to do with each other."
"No!" An old lady at the door hurriedly interrupted the conversation.
Shi Zhu's face froze: "Mom, why are you here?"
Shizhu's mother was so angry that she knocked her son on the forehead and said, "If I hadn't come, would you have planned to cancel the engagement?" After saying that, she glared at Liu Qianqian. In her opinion, if it weren't for this female educated youth's seduction, her son would not have wanted to cancel the engagement.
"mother--"
"Don't call me mother!" Shi Zhu's mother turned to Su Sanlan and said with an apologetic smile, "He's from the Ergen family. It's true that Shi Zhu is ignorant about this matter, but don't worry, as long as I'm around, I will never let Liu Zhiqing in. I only recognize our Shi Liu."
Su Sanlan curled her lips and said with disdain: "You really think your Shizhu is a hot commodity. If it wasn't for the childhood marriage arranged by my father-in-law, I would never agree to this marriage. I said, our Shiliu doesn't want this marriage, and I don't care whether you accept it or not." In her opinion, with her daughter's character and appearance, even the wife of an official would do the same.
Shizhu's mother didn't expect that the man surnamed Su would be so disrespectful to her. She was so angry that she wanted to jump up and down. Fortunately, she still had some rationality and managed to hold back.
Shizhu was young after all, and he couldn't stand being looked down upon like that: "Cancel the engagement if you want. Who wants to marry a lazy woman?"
"You bastard, you dare to scold my sister? I will beat you to death!" As soon as Shi Xia entered the door, he heard Shi Zhu talking arrogantly there. He went up and kicked him, knocking him down.
"Zhuzi!" Shizhu's mother hurriedly helped her son up, but she herself sat down and started to act like a spoiled child. "He beat someone to death! The captain allowed his nephew to beat someone up—"
The team leader who was trying to stop his second nephew was so angry that he wanted to give up immediately. He shouldn't have stopped him and let Xia Sheng hit the stone pillar a few more times.
The nurse who had been watching the excitement outside the door came in immediately when she saw this: "What are you doing? Don't you know that the patient needs to rest? Get out if you keep making noise." Don't think she doesn't know that the pretty little sister on the bed was beaten by the scumbag. If she said so, it was right for the brother to beat him a few times.
Shizhu's mother was so frightened that she immediately crawled to her feet. She just made a scene in the village but didn't dare to make trouble with the nurse.
In the end, under the captain's tough attitude, the two families not only broke off the engagement, but Shizhu's family also compensated all the expenses. Even Liu Qianqian, who didn't need to pay any money, was forced to pay 5 yuan.
After the group of people left noisily, Shi Liu picked up the big meat bun and started eating it, but he was so hungry: "Mom, there is one meat bun left for you to eat." The meat buns of this era were very real, with thin skin and lots of meat, each as big as a man's fist. They were nothing compared to the small meat buns in later generations that could be eaten in one mouthful.
Su Sanlan was so moved that tears welled up in her eyes. "My daughter really loves me, unlike some ungrateful people who forget their mothers after getting married. Pomegranates, I won't eat them. Your sister-in-law will bring you food later. These meat buns are for your nutrition."
Shi Liu looked at her second brother's helpless look and smiled awkwardly. The old man was a non-conformist. Shi Liu had been tough since she was a child. It was common for the master and the apprentice to quarrel. With a kind mother like Su Sanlan, she really didn't know how to deal with it for a moment, so she simply ate the meat buns in big mouthfuls.
In fact, it is no wonder that Shizhu despised her as a lazy woman. The original owner's mother, Comrade Su Sanlan, was a person who valued girls over boys. In her heart, once her son got married, he and her would no longer be on the same page. She held her only daughter in her hands for fear of dropping her, and held her in her mouth for fear of her melting.
The original owner had four tall and strong older brothers, and with her eldest and second sisters-in-law coming into the family earlier, Su Sanlan was reluctant to give her daughters orders, both at home and outside. The sisters-in-law were not without their complaints, but Su Sanlan said that if her daughter herself was reluctant to give orders, how could anyone dare to? The four sons had been brainwashed by Su Sanlan since childhood, and whenever she got something good, they would consciously bring it home for their sister.
The villagers naturally envied the original owner's good life and often gossiped and sowed discord. Unfortunately, Su Sanlan of the Shi family had the final say, and none of the daughters-in-law could handle her.
Over the years, the original owner had developed a lazy and gluttonous personality, which was very similar to her. In her previous life, Shi Liu would work hard on things that interested her, but otherwise she would just lie down and not stand up. She lived a carefree life with her old man, ordering takeout every day.
Thinking of the old man, Shi Liu suddenly felt that the big meat buns were no longer delicious. She didn't know if there would be anyone to take care of the old man and see him to the end after she passed away.
After eating two meat buns and a bowl of egg drop soup, Shi Liu felt energetic and no longer dizzy. She even wondered if the dizziness was caused by hunger.
Despite the difficult times, Shi Liu's body was still quite healthy, otherwise she wouldn't have recovered so quickly. After her mother and second brother left, Shi Liu began to check the sign-in system that the judge had compensated her.
[Host, do you want to spend 1 sign-in point to obtain the map of Daqiao County?]
Shi Liu simply clicked confirm, and soon a detailed map of Daqiao County appeared in her mind, with all the check-in locations marked on the map.
After some research, Shi Liu discovered that sign-in locations are roughly divided into five categories: white, green, blue, purple, and gold. Most of the sign-in locations in Daqiao County are marked with white and green, requiring only one sign-in point. In addition to the 10 points given for the first sign-in, sign-in points automatically increase by 1 point each day. Of course, she can also choose to exchange merit points for sign-in points.
Having just gotten a golden finger, she naturally wanted to experiment with it as soon as possible. Looking at the check-in location of the hospital shown on the map, Shi Liu simply got up in the middle of the night and found the check-in location according to the map. Unexpectedly, it was a pharmacy.
[I have found the check-in location for Daqiao County No. 1 Health Center. Do I need to use 1 check-in point to check in?]
Shi Liu immediately breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that she could really sign in. Anyway, she now had 10 sign-in points, so she might as well give it a try.
[Successfully sign in at the First Health Center in Daqiao County and receive a home medicine box*1]
A home medicine box? Shi Liu soon discovered a wooden box with a red cross on it in the check-in system's backpack.
