"I want to tell Xing Ci that when our team goes to the town to pay taxes tomorrow, if it rains, the grain in the fields of other teams will be a problem."
As Yang Mumu was talking, she felt like laughing when she thought of how anxious he was to get busy just now. Just now, Gu Xingzhou was like someone on fire. He stood up in a hurry, sat down in less than a second, and then ran to the window again.
She couldn't hold it back and laughed. Her smile was contagious and she laughed for no apparent reason. Gu Xingzhou laughed when he saw her laugh.
"Okay, stop laughing, and take it."
Yang Mumu was still thinking about what she was going to say, so she covered her mouth with her hand, forcing herself and the other person to stop smiling.
Gu Xingzhou tried hard to hold back his laughter, "Okay, I won't laugh!"
After both of them held back their laughter, Yang Mumu straightened his face and continued.
"You know, many teams are not as fast as ours. Most teams still have a lot of food in their fields that they haven't harvested yet. If it rains and it keeps raining, the food in the fields will be soaked and sprout."
"Um!"
Gu Xingzhou listened carefully, nodded silently, and agreed.
Yang Mumu got the feedback and continued to speak with great enthusiasm:
"The harvest will be greatly affected, and the public grain will not be delivered. Not only will it be difficult for the people of the entire commune to eat, it will also affect the food supply of the entire county. If such a major incident occurs, Xing Ci, the newly transferred director, will be greatly affected. Don't you think so?"
"Yes, it will be affected. It will be a big impact."
Gu Xingzhou knew that his friend didn't need to go to the grassroots level like he is now, and it would be enough to go to the county. It was all because of his work in the commune here that he was transferred here.
Strictly speaking, I came here for him. I can't let anything happen to this kid.
"Right, he is your good friend. He helped us again this time. We should remind him more and urge the various brigades under the commune to speed up the autumn harvest. The faster the process, the better. The weather waits for no one. If it rains, no one can stop it. We can only try our best to harvest the grain."
Gu Xingzhou listened to everything.
"Thank you, Mumu. You are very thoughtful. I will remind him. He is a person who listens to opinions. He will take our words seriously. Let's go and talk about it together tomorrow."
"Well, I'll go after paying my taxes, and find out about Lu Qianyao's results."
Yang Mumu was no longer so worried. After the two chatted for a while, Gu Xingzhou went back to his room and rested.
The next morning, the whole team got up early and worked to pay the grain tax.
Yang Mumu went to the brigade headquarters and, together with the team leader and Uncle Xiangqian, directed the members to load the public grain.
To get the bagged grain to the grain station, it all depends on manpower to carry it on the back and push the cart.
Yang Mumu contributed all of his bicycles to transport food, and Gu Xingzhou and He Yuan also pushed out their bicycles.
The entire team, young and old, including all the able-bodied laborers, went out to the commune, carrying one or two hundred kilograms of food.
After about three hours, all the brigade's public grain was delivered to the grain station. The team leader and the accountant went to hand in the public grain and waited for inspection and rating.
The other members of the team took advantage of this opportunity to visit the commune, the supply and marketing cooperative, or go to the agricultural and sideline products purchasing station to exchange the eggs they had accumulated at home and buy some other things.
The other people from the Youth League Institute made an appointment to go to the supply and marketing cooperative together.
Yang Mumu registered the names of the people who were carrying food one by one, and after that she had nothing to do.
After saying hello to the captain, she and Gu Xingzhou who was waiting on the side walked towards the Revolutionary Committee not far behind them.
Shen Xingci was sitting in the office writing materials. When he saw them coming, he immediately stood up and came over to meet them happily.
"Hey, you guys came to see me, come and sit down, I'll pour you some tea, I was just wondering when I would go find you guys, and then you showed up, we really are good friends who understand each other."
Gu Xingzhou smiled and said, "I just came here to pay my taxes, and I came to see you by the way."
"Your team is really fast. You're the first one to hand it in this year. That's great."
Shen Xingci enthusiastically brought over two cups of tea, looked at the two of them and said:
"Old Shen, Mu Mu, come, have some tea, let's sit and chat for a while. I'm so happy that you guys thought of coming to me when you need help. How's your tax payment going?"
"We are almost done with our work. The captain is waiting for the inspection over there. We have nothing else to do, so we might as well come to your place to rest and have a drink of water. Xingci, thank you for the water. I have finished the water in the kettle, but I am so thirsty. I won't be polite to you."
Yang Mumu raised the cup of water and gestured to him with a smile, then took a big gulp of the water.
Shen Xingci liked people who were not shy and who spoke and acted boldly. He immediately had a better impression of this future brother-in-law. He waved his hand and said:
"Drink, drink as much as you want, I'll refill your kettle later."
As he said that, he went to bring the bottle of water over and put it down.
Gu Xingzhou asked while drinking tea: "How is it? Are you getting used to it?"
"I've adapted. I've adapted very well. I've been busy since I came here. We haven't had a meal yet. You'll have to cook a few more dishes for us as a reward later."
Shen Xingci just spoke casually and didn't wait for Gu Xingzhou to answer, and brought up what happened last night.
"By the way, that Lu Qianyao committed suicide by hitting his head against the wall last night. He was really cruel, even to himself. His head was smashed to pieces, and no one could stop him. He seemed to be rushing to die, and he died on the spot. When he died, there was still a smile on the corner of his mouth. I have never seen a person who likes to die."
"What? Dead? Did he really commit suicide?" Gu Xingzhou asked in surprise.
"He was really dead. I was worried that he was not dead yet and was faking his death. I supervised the whole process myself and sent him to be cremated."
Shen Xingci ran to the desk, opened the drawer, and handed over the relevant death notice and some materials.
"You can see for yourself that even if he didn't commit suicide he would be shot, but I never thought he would take the initiative to ask for death before that."
Yang Mumu and Gu Xingzhou took it in their hands and looked at it together, and it was indeed like that.
Yang Mumu sighed a little, Lu Qianyao was gone just like that.
She understood Lu Qianyao's thoughts. He was still dreaming of returning to the modern times. If she were to ask him, his body in the modern times might have been cremated into ashes. Even if he really had the chance to go back, he would not be able to survive.
"Whatever, since he's dead, let's not talk about him anymore and talk about something else."
"Yes, Lao Shen, I have something important to tell you."
Gu Xingzhou returned the documents to Shen Xingci, pulled him to sit next to him, and started to fool him.
Oh no, I was starting to do a serious analysis and help him sort out the key tasks to prevent him from neglecting certain tasks due to his busy schedule after taking office.
"According to my night observations of the sky, this day is a bit strange. There may be rain in the next few days, or even heavy rain."
