Chapter 159
A few years passed in a flash, and just when Weisheng was becoming the uncrowned king of Taohe Village, the disappearance cases of the previous year were brought up again.
It’s not that anyone suspected Weisheng, but a while ago when everyone went up the mountain to pick mushrooms, someone with sharp eyes discovered some relics.
Because of this incident, the village specially organized its members to go up the mountain.
Apart from some moldy, shredded clothing and rubber shoes, not even a single bone was found. However, after this incident, the villagers were no longer allowed to enter the mountain without permission.
Weisheng's home is at the foot of the mountain. Since people are not allowed to enter the back mountain, there are fewer and fewer villagers passing by their side.
When Sister Xu came to the village, she heard about this from the villagers and was shocked. She insisted that Weisheng and Ji Fuyang move to the county.
Sister Xu would often come to the village when she had nothing to do. Weisheng asked Ji Fuyang to get some materials and personally assembled a bicycle with training wheels for Sister Xu.
So the old lady rode a bicycle, which was not like a tricycle but more stable than a tricycle, back and forth between the county and Taohe Village every two or three days. In the process, she got to know many villagers.
Weisheng really enjoyed living in the village. It had its own private house and yard, and there weren't many neighbors nearby. It was also close to the mountains, making it easier to get meat than in the county. Living in the village felt like a vacation.
Seeing that Weisheng didn't want to move, Ji Fuyang looked indifferent, but then he turned around and brought back two local dogs from outside.
Maybe this dog was brought back by Ji Fuyang, so even though it was carefully selected by its ancestors, it still exudes the silly cuteness of a Husky.
But with the two dogs, the adobe house became even more lively. These two were especially clingy and loved to follow Weisheng around. So, whether Weisheng was walking around the village or heading to the county, they'd always follow him around.
With this pair of dogs keeping Weisheng company and entertained, Ji Fuyang was away from home more often.
In recent years, Ji Fuyang often went to visit relatives in various places with letters of introduction. As a result, more and more black market goods came with him, and things from all over the world could be seen everywhere in his home.
However, Ji Fuyang still looked nonchalant on the surface, working for three days and drying the net for two days to get work points in the team.
He talks about his family's loyalty and bravery all the time, but he never does anything to bring honor to his ancestors. Not to mention the ancestors of the Ji family, even Grandpa Ji would be so angry that he would come back to life if he knew what Ji Fuyang had done.
As for the villagers, they could only coax these second-generation rich people who could sing, recite, act and fight to come.
This is how the world works: they blindly bully those who follow the rules, yet they compromise with those who don't. As a result, those who follow the rules are constrained by dogmatic rules throughout their lives, afraid to make even the slightest mistake. Meanwhile, those who don't follow the rules reap all the benefits, living a carefree life for decades.
It's also ironic.
However, as the wife of a rogue, Weisheng looked at the pork belly she got and felt that as a beneficiary, she had no right to say anything.
Ever since Ji Fuyang's disturbance of the entire village over a piece of lean meat that first year, every time Weisheng received meat, he would be asked, "Which piece do you want?"
Not only is the weight generous, but they also give you a small extra piece of meat as a bonus. Our main goal is to ensure you're satisfied, with no cheating.
Ji Fuyang had recently gone out to visit relatives, so today, after Weisheng received the meat, he lined up for a bowl of pig-killing dishes. Afterwards, he took the dog, who had also run out, and leisurely carried the basket back to the adobe house.
Sister Xu was making stuffing for buns at home. When she saw Weisheng come back, she smiled and took a look at the meat that had been divided up.
Because Sister Xu often came to the village, Ji Fuyang even asked the villagers to help build a small room in the yard for her to live in. Every time Ji Fuyang went to buy goods, Sister Xu would come to the village to accompany Weisheng.
Sister Xu is diligent, clean, and cooks delicious food. When she comes, she can not only cook but also chat with Weisheng.
When she woke up early and heard Weisheng mention that he wanted to eat buns baked in a bread oven, she made a bowl of dough early in the morning.
Seeing that the piece of meat he was given was very good, he cut some of it to make filling for the buns.
Sister Xu didn't ask Weisheng to help, but just told her to read. She also said that if Weisheng was admitted to university, then their family would also have a college student.
Weisheng smiled, but didn't go to read. He just took a head of garlic and sat down, peeling the garlic while talking to Sister Xu.
"We were only notified in October that the college entrance exams would resume, and the exams are in December. That's not enough time to review." Sister Xu diced the pork belly and asked Weisheng if he wanted some noodles with soybean paste for dinner. "I heard from Fuyang that the exam room was freezing, and they weren't even allowed to use hot water bottles."
Weisheng: "It's not that bad. The temperature here is much higher than in the Northeast. Water in the Northeast is freezing right now."
In the past two years, when Weisheng had nothing to do, she would think about what to learn in this life. Finally, when Ji Fuyang asked her to do the accounts, she decided to study a major such as accounting and auditing.
In August 1977, when Ji Fuyang returned from Beijing after delivering goods, he told Weisheng that the higher-ups were considering resuming the college entrance examination, and asked Weisheng whether he wanted to take the exam.
After hearing that Weisheng was going to take the college entrance examination, this bastard told Weisheng the story of Chen Shimei for several days.
In this story of his, he is the abandoned Chen Xianglian, and Weisheng is the Chen Shimei who abandoned his wife and children.
After being tempered by his singing, reciting, acting and fighting, Weisheng actually looked forward to the college entrance examination more than at any other time and space.
╮(╯▽╰)╭
Although this bastard does all kinds of things every day, he is very smart when it comes to doing business.
After hearing the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination from his friends, he purchased a batch of college entrance examination review materials and various pens and brought them back to Xingyuan County.
After the news of the resumption of the college entrance examination in October came out, the college entrance examination review materials in other places were snapped up, and he directly sold this batch of stock at a high price.
Made a lot of money.
Weisheng had always had a habit of reading. Before she knew the Gaokao would be reinstated, she had been reading medical books and Grandpa Wei's notes. After hearing about the Gaokao from Ji Fuyang, she took the review materials he had brought back and began preparing for it.
The college entrance examination was no longer difficult for her, but Weisheng, who didn't want to make any mistakes, still spent two months reviewing.
At the end of December, Ji Fuyang sent Weisheng to the city to take the college entrance examination, and then took Weisheng to play in the city for a few days before returning to the village.
However, as soon as he arrived at Taohezhuang, Ji Fuyang took the letter of introduction and went out to deliver goods.
Many people in the village took the college entrance examination. Weisheng gave all those who had bullied the original owner a laxative for detoxification and bowel cleansing before she went to the city to take the college entrance examination.
Those people entered the examination room when they were exhausted and kept asking to go to the bathroom during the exam. The result can be imagined.
When he thought back, Weisheng realized that she had been incredibly kind in recent years.
"The New Year is almost here, and I don't know when Fuyang will come back. The things Xinsheng sent from Tianfu the other day didn't even compare to what Fuyang and his team were selling."
Second Uncle Ji's name was Ji Xinsheng, and he had been in the Tianfu Military Region for many years. Although they were thousands of miles apart, Second Uncle Ji would mail something to Ji Fuyang every year.
Weisheng also looked at the things that Uncle Ji mailed this year. The things themselves were secondary, but after looking at them, it felt extremely perfunctory.
Seeing Sister Xu mention this, she just casually responded, "Maybe Second Uncle is too busy and asked someone else to buy it."
After hearing this, Sister Xu said, "He has the intention, but he may not buy things personally every year. This year,"
After a pause, Sister Xu looked at Weisheng and couldn't help but guess: "Could something have happened to Xiang Hua?"
Although she didn't get along with Xiang Hua, she knew that the woman Ji Lao Er married was the best at saving face. This year, she didn't even try to save face, so maybe something really happened.
It’s hard to say.
While Weisheng was living at the Ji family's, he'd met Ji Xinsheng's wife, Xiang Hua, several times. She was fluent and a true socialite. Ji Fuyang was Ji Xinsheng's only nephew, and while his uncle respected him, his aunt, even if she disliked him, would always pretend. She'd been so good at pretending over the years, she shouldn't have made such a naive mistake.
Weisheng thought about it and said to Sister Xu, "Didn't Ji Fuyang go to Tianfu? We'll know when he comes back."
Although Ji Fuyang is poor, lowly and shameless, he will definitely go to see his second uncle Ji when he goes to Tianfu to purchase goods.
As we were talking, we heard the commotion outside again.
Weisheng just laughed when he heard that. Sister Xu also shook her head and cursed Ji Fuyang before walking out.
After a while, the dog, howling from being beaten, came into the house, and the other two, Mr. Li and the Director, who looked very strong and confident, followed in.
The two dogs whined and came to Weisheng, asking for rubs and hugs. The two domineering presidents jumped onto the kang with an arrogant look on their faces, and then jumped onto the low wall above the stove. They looked down at the stupid dogs and licked their fur.
That’s right, these two cats were also brought back by Ji Fuyang.
Besides these four little ones, Ji Fuyang also brought back a starling that only lived for a day and became cat food, a turtle that fell into a dry toilet, and a sheep that became a roasted whole lamb...
Ji Fuyang brought these to entertain Weisheng, but they ended up causing chaos at home.
For lunch, we had meat buns baked in a bread oven and egg and seaweed soup. For dinner, we had Sister Xu's authentic Beijing-style noodles with soybean paste. That night, we didn't mind how dirty General Li and the Bureau Chief were after a long day of running around, and we just tucked them into bed.
The next day, Weisheng found an abacus from the space, and then sat on the kang to practice using it.
Sister Xu was not in her room, but came to Weisheng's side and spent time with Weisheng across a kang table.
The two cats were sleeping soundly under the kang table, and the two dogs were lying on the edge of the kang, looking out of the yard through the plastic curtain, and taking a nap from time to time.
A kettle was placed on the small stove. The fire was not big, but the water had already boiled. Steam was squeezed out of the spout of the kettle, and the room was warm and humid.
There was a peaceful and tranquil atmosphere. Weisheng occasionally looked up at the window, feeling an indescribable sense of peace and tranquility in his heart.
Unfortunately, at around nine o'clock, this peace was broken by an urgent telegram.
One good thing, one bad thing.
Weisheng was admitted to the university that Ji Fuyang had persuaded her to apply for, but the bad news was that her second uncle Ji was seriously ill, and Ji Fuyang asked her to go to Tianfu as soon as possible.
Looking at the admission letter in his left hand and then at the expedited telegram in his right hand, Weisheng thanked the postman and prepared to leave immediately.
Leaving her home to Sister Xu, Weisheng only took one set of clothes with her and went to the village committee compound carrying her medical tool box.
'My uncle is seriously ill, come quickly!'
Just these five words on the telegram made the village chief dare not delay. He immediately gave Weisheng a letter of introduction and said a few words of concern without charge.
Weisheng first rode his bicycle to the county, then parked the bicycle in the county courtyard and walked to the train station.
First, I chose the nearest train to the city, and then changed trains in the city to Tianfu.
Not bothered by the hassle of taking several different buses, Weisheng even used her helicopter along the way.
She arrived a day and a half earlier than Ji Fuyang expected. No one came to pick her up at the train station, so she found a way to get to the military base on her own.
When Ji Fuyang heard the announcement from the guard at the gate, he was stunned for a moment. He ran to the gate with the guard, and when he saw that it was really Weisheng, he rushed over as usual.
He was mentally prepared to be kicked away by Weisheng, but he didn't expect that Weisheng didn't kick him this time.
He quickly got up from the ground and looked at Weisheng with suspicion.
"There's something wrong with you."
"Kicking you is enough?" Weisheng rolled his eyes at him angrily. "Stop joking. Didn't you say Second Uncle is sick? Why don't you go and sign it?"
The military district has strict management, and Weisheng cannot enter without the signature and consent of the family members inside.
Speaking of his second uncle, Ji Fuyang didn't dare to delay any longer. He quickly completed the formalities and led Weisheng in.
As they walked towards Uncle Ji's house, Weisheng asked Ji Fuyang, "What's wrong with Uncle Ji?"
Ji Fuyang: "There's something growing inside me. I'm not sure about surgery, so the doctor recommended conservative treatment. I've been receiving treatment for a while, but it seems like there's no improvement, so I wanted you to come and see me."
Weisheng nodded. "A few days ago, when the village was distributing meat... Sister Xu even suggested that something might have happened at home or with Second Aunt. I never imagined it was Second Uncle who was ill."
Ji Fuyang sighed when he heard this, and told Weisheng in a serious manner how bad the current situation in Uncle Ji's family was.
The usually respectable Second Aunt Ji was always grimy and unkempt. Her cousin cried daily, and the two of them looked disgusted with each other, while her cousin acted like a losing fighting cock. "If I were Second Uncle, seeing them three mothers in such a state of near death every day, I'd have no time to focus on my health."
Weisheng glanced at him sideways and asked with a smile, "Then you didn't howl at your second uncle twice?"
Ji Fuyang touched his nose and replied in a nonsensical but confident manner: "I was just expressing my sadness."
If your uncle is sick, would it be unreasonable for your nephew not to cry out in relief?
