Rebirth after the 1950s

Chapter 98 Untitled Draft

"What you are saying is, don't worry. Neither of us are the kind of people who stir up trouble, nor are we the kind of people who don't know what is good and what is good. We still know how to do what is good for ourselves." Chen Enpeng said.

"I heard from the captain that when the grain is distributed after the autumn harvest, you can pay to buy some, but this is not a long-term thing. It is better to earn your own share of the grain."

"Okay, Mianmian, you're still young, so don't worry about it."

"Too"

"Mianmian, we are all well-informed people. We are not the kind of bastards who know what to do and what to do. If you are good to yourself, you don't have to worry about us. By the way, Mianmian heard that you do it every day. Get up for morning exercise, do you think the two of us can follow you?" Chen Junjie asked

"Okay, but do you have enough food?"

"That's right, Jiezi, after you move out, you can follow Mianmian to get up and do morning exercises," Chen Enpeng said.

"OK, I see"

"Then later, Grandpa Huang will tell us about setting up the water tank."

"Okay, how about I give you the money first?"

"No, just give it to Grandpa Huang when the time comes. We want a lot, and we won't be able to get it back in one trip. Besides, it won't be too late to wait until your house is built."

"Okay, listen to you."

Just like that, after Grandpa Huang pulled the water tank back, I saw that the house was neatly drained, and it looked like a home.

Because we built the house and bought these things, the three of us became famous in the brigade. However, the three of us were not the ones complaining about tiredness, but we were always well received in the brigade.I heard that he is better than the few educated youths who came before, and he is also better than the educated youth from the next village. He is willing to do things without making trouble or speaking out.Gradually, the three of us integrated into the other club members.Isn't it true that some people saw the three of us running around the village every day, and some children followed us.Some children would take us to the mountains to pick mushrooms and wild vegetables, and tell us how to preserve them if we couldn’t finish them all.

Not long after I got home after work that day, I heard someone knocking on the door: "Who is it?"

"Sister Mianmian, it's me, Lixia"

"Lixia, you're here," he said, opening the door and seeing the child standing at the door, he asked

"My grandma is looking for you"

"Okay, wait for me for a while. Sister, go and close the door first. Let's go now." He didn't know what the old lady wanted to do with him. When he got to the yard, he locked the door, except the main door, and gave Lixia a piece of fruit. Tang, just follow Lixia.The educated youth lives not far from the brigade leader's home, only half a mile away.

"Grandma, grandma, sister Mianmian is here"

"Oh, I got it." After hearing her granddaughter's voice, Grandma Gu hurriedly came out. When she saw her coming, she quickly said, "Mianmian is here, come in quickly and get on the kang to do it."

"Hey, grandma, don't bother, just do it yourself." After saying that, he and Grandma Gu went into the back room.

Grandma Gu took my hand and said, "Didn't you say you were looking for fungus and mushrooms a few days ago? My old lady has found them all for you, but all they want is brown sugar. I wonder if you have any."

"Grandma Gu, how do you calculate this?"

"Now the brown sugar from the supply and marketing cooperative costs 10 cents per catty. If you need a ticket, I will pay you [-] cents per catty. The dry goods here are all picked up from the nearby mountains. They don't cost money, let alone tickets. One catty Let me calculate it at five cents for you, so one pound of brown sugar can be exchanged for [-] pounds of dry goods, how about?"

"It's okay, Grandma Gu. I don't understand this either, so just follow what you always say."

"Okay, I'll pick the best stuff for you. Come and take a look." As she said that, Grandma Gu pulled the two big bags next to her in a hurry and showed them to me.

"Grandma Gu, these are very good. They are not broken and they are very big."

"That's right, the old lady is doing the work, so don't worry."

"That's right, I'm sure you can rest assured."

"There are 100 kilograms in total. You can give me 10 kilograms of brown sugar. Does Mianmian have so much brown sugar? If there is nothing else, that's fine."

"Grandma Gu, don't worry. I have it. If I wasn't afraid that the brown sugar would melt easily after being left out for a long time, I wouldn't change it for bugs. But it's just a one-time change. I don't know when it will be. What? These brown sugars are also given by my parents’ comrades."

"Okay, I know, old lady, do you want me to wait for Dapeng to come back and send it back to you?"

"No, grandma, just do it yourself"

"That's okay. Everyone is working in the fields right now and there's no one on the road. You can take it back quickly."

"Okay, I'll bring the brown sugar back to you later."

"Don't worry, it's okay, Grandma Gu."

I don’t know it, but in fact these goods are from Grandma Gu’s family and the families of her sons. My family must take care of my family. On top of that, several daughters-in-law have given birth to several children one after another, and their bodies are somewhat short-changed. This brown sugar It's for health, you can drink more. Besides, you can get it now without a ticket, so why not get more?

Just carrying two bags of dry goods home, I quickly wrapped 10 kilograms of brown sugar in oil paper from the space.Today's brown sugar is all handmade, much stronger than later ones, and there are no additives. Keep those for yourself.After finishing the package, I quickly delivered it to Grandma Gu. When I went there this time, I saw a 17-18 year old girl in the yard, who must be Grandma Gu's little daughter.This girl saw me and asked: "Excuse me, who are you and who are you looking for?"

"Hello, comrade, I'm looking for Grandma Gu. My name is Li Mianmian."

"It's Mianmian, come in quickly. This is the old lady's little girl who goes to high school in the county. Cuicui and I told her that this is the daughter of Comrade Li who took your brother's life when he came to the battlefield."

"Hello, Comrade Li"

"Hello, grandma, I brought you brown sugar."

"Okay, haven't I told you everything? Don't you need to worry?"

"It's okay, isn't it okay? I just sent it to you."

"Okay, then you wait a moment while the old lady goes to empty the basket for you."

"Ugh"

Because I had just met Gu Cuicui, who was several years older than me, she didn’t say much. Soon Grandma Gu gave me a basket with a handful of vegetables in it. I heard Grandma Gu say: “Is there anything in the vegetable patch at home?” There are few green vegetables. If you want to eat them, come here and pick them yourself. Don’t be embarrassed, Mianmian, you know?”

"I know, Grandma Gu. If I don't want to be polite to you, I'll go back as it's getting late, Grandma Gu."

"Go back, take your time on the road"

After Gu Cuicui saw Mianmian leaving, she asked Grandma Gu: "Mom, what's going on? Why did Comrade Li come to this trouble?"

"Oh, this child is also a pitiful person," he said, telling his daughter some things he knew.

"Well, I just saw that she is about the same age as Dachengzi. Why did she become an educated youth at such a young age?"

"Who says it's not the case? If my parents weren't here anymore, why would we have this problem?"

"Mom, what kind of person is this Comrade Li?"
