Chapter 160: A Letter from Far Away

"Rubidium Wenqiang...... Rubidium Wenqiang...... Rubidium Wenqiang...... Hurry up to the commune and get the letter, there is your letter. "The villagers who got up when they heard the rooster crowing were already on the way uphill, when the commune's loudspeaker sounded.

This voice directly made the entire brigade boil, and everyone was speculating whether it was Rubidium Wenqiang's mother-in-law's mother-in-law who sent something good to their house. I knew that this Rubidium family was notoriously poor in the brigade, and it would be good if he didn't starve to death, but I didn't expect that marrying a young daughter-in-law would bring good luck to their family, build a thatched house, have food stamps and cloth stamps, and sometimes send them dry food that can only be eaten in the city.

Although it is said that the blue brick and tiled house are not built, it is also a very happy thing that the family can at least be fed and clothed. Other people don't even have a decent piece of clothing when they go out, and sometimes they have to go to their house to borrow it. I heard that Hu Lan's maiden family is very rich, and that cotton cloth clothes are more than many times more comfortable to the touch than their coarse cloth clothes.

"Dad, you hurry up and get it back and take a look, it must be my brother who wrote to me, I should know that I am going to give birth, congratulations on coming." Hearing the sound of the loudspeaker, Hu Lan had a happy smile on her face, if she hadn't been in confinement, she would have run out a long time ago, and her letter had been sent out for more than a month.

There is really a feeling of waiting until the flowers are gone, and I am waiting for the letter from home to arrive.

There was no phone in the brigade, and if you wanted to call your parents, you had to go to the city to find an acquaintance to say a word or two. It was a government office, and if it weren't for her father's comrade-in-arms, she wouldn't have been able to make this connection. However, after all, she is a good friend of her father, and she can't be bothered often, and after listening to their voices for a year and a half, she is already satisfied.

I usually rely on letters to comfort the pain of longing.

"Don't worry, I'll take it and come back quickly. Rubidium Wenqiang, who was carrying a hoe and preparing to go uphill, dropped the hoe and ran towards the commune.

"Qiangzi, what good things did your father-in-law send you again?"

"Yo yo yo, look at your excitement, are you sending new clothes to your family again?"

"What are you doing when you run so fast, I'll go with you to take a look, if you can't take it, I can still take a hand. ”

"Hadron, don't hide good things. ”

There are some jokers along the way, and Rubidium Wenqiang is just smiling, he has already resisted their jokes, and he won't care about them at all. It is a matter of joy that the mother-in-law's family has good things to give them, and he has nothing to say.

"Zhang Zhishu, you said that my letter has arrived, right?" Walking into the commune, I saw the branch secretary sitting on the table, and Rubidium Wenqiang stepped forward with a smile.

Zhang Aiguo was tinkering with his radio at this time, and he knew that this was a treasure he had just gotten, and if he wasn't familiar with the people from the supply and marketing cooperative, he wouldn't have been able to get this thing in the brigade.

It is really boring to do farm work every day, and he estimates that he will play some songs for everyone every day to enliven the atmosphere and stimulate their enthusiasm.

Although it is now the time for the land to implement the responsibility system, the production to the households, and the families to run their own small lives, but this enthusiasm still needs to be mobilized, after all, after many years of collective life, many people have developed inertia, if there is no spur by others, it will be difficult to progress.

"Yes, yes, why are you so fast? Did your husband send you something good again?" Before dawn, the postman rode a two-eight bicycle, good fellow, there was a big package on the board behind him, and when he took it off, he checked itβ€”it was quite heavy.

He signed for the package and the letter, sat down in his chair, and shouted into the microphone with red silk in it.

As soon as it spoke, three loudspeakers placed on elm trees in the courtyard of the commune sounded in all directions of the village.

It didn't take long for it to spread to all corners of the entire Peach Blossom Village, because the echo could sometimes be heard in the next village.

"I don't know, I don't care about anything at home, maybe my father-in-law and mother-in-law feel sorry for their daughter and send some dry food to my wife!" After more than ten years of getting along, he has become accustomed to his mother-in-law sending things to his wife, and he no longer has the initial disgust.

The mother-in-law sent all the things that the family did not have, or lacked, since she couldn't give her a good material condition, the mother-in-law was willing to help, and he couldn't say anything.

It's just that Wucheng is too far away from Jiangcheng, it takes three days and two nights to take a steamer, and two days and two nights to take a train, and the number of times Rubidium Wenqiang has gone to Jiangcheng can be counted on one hand.

Usually the work in the field has to be done, and he can't spare time to go, the main thing is that it is too far away, and it will take ten days to come and go, and the grass in these ten days and earth will grow taller.

"Is it so heavy, is it the milk powder clothes sent to your family?" Zhang Aiguo touched it with his hand a few times, if it was a garment, it would definitely not be so heavy. Their family has just given birth to a child, it should be something related to the child, so heavy, this is the only thing he can think of.

"Milk powder, how is it possible, you are really good at joking. "Milk powder, it's not that he hasn't seen it before, isn't it made of milk, but one is clear and the other is dry.

It's just that milk powder is too expensive, and families like them can't afford it, so it's good for children to have porridge to drink, and they still expect to have milk powder, so it's easier to grab it.

"Really not?" Zhang Aiguo looked at Rubidium Wenqiang suspiciously, in fact, curiosity was driving him.

"Definitely not, why don't I open it and take a look?" The wife was still waiting at home, and at the same time as Rubidium Wenqiang spoke, he opened the box.

"Huh...... What is this?" reached out from the mouth and touched it, a hard thing, it didn't feel like clothes.

……

Hearing Rubidium Wenqiang's voice, Zhang Aiguo stepped forward curiously and wanted to take a look.

"It's bud rice crackers. He moved his hand and touched it to another place, found a small piece of bud rice cake, and gave Zhang Zhishu a piece without hesitation.

"Yo yo yo, this is still a good thing, I'm a big man, I won't eat this thing, you take it back and give it to your first girl to eat." Zhang Aiguo, who hadn't eaten early in the morning, began to sing about the empty city plan in his stomach after seeing the yellow mud-like bud rice cakes.

Because he sucked his stomach and didn't let him make any sound, he didn't let himself fall into an embarrassing situation.

"I still have it here, you take it back and give it to your sister-in-law and nephew. Rubidium Wenqiang generously touched two more pieces out.

If it weren't for Zhang Zhishu and their dedication to building Peach Blossom Village, their village would still be dealing with the situation of being lazy and unable to pay public food. Therefore, not only Rubidium Wenqiang, but also the whole Taohua Village are full of gratitude to these cadres of the brigade. The story of the reborn wife chasing her husband
