Chapter 48: Careful Thinking
Seeing the two teenagers muttering on the side for a long time, Lin Xi stretched out his ears and didn't hear what they were discussing. After a while, the two came over and told Lin Xi the results of the discussion.
In the future, Lin Xi's dim sum will be sold to the people in the printing and dyeing factory, and Li Zhen will be responsible for the sales, and the money will go to Lin Xi. Lin Xi looked at Chu Sheng, then at Li Zhen, and said in his heart, how can anyone be willing to work in vain. So he offered to give Li Zhen a share. Li Zhen's goal is not money, he hopes that he will perform well, and when Chu Sheng makes a move, he can be light. Therefore, he waved his hand generously and said: "Sister Lin, my homework is all tutored by you, what is this little thing, rest assured, this matter is covered by me." ”
At sunset, Li Zhen limped home, his tongue against some loose teeth, it really hurt! Chu Sheng was really ruthless. When Li Zhen's mother saw her son's embarrassed appearance, she was distressed and wanted to cry, and said: "Which bastard beat you, tell your mother, I'll find someone to settle the account." ”
"It's okay, I accidentally fell on it. Li Zhen took out the hand held by the old lady and threw down a sentence: "I'll go back to the house and lie down for a while." After saying that, he went into the house and closed the door. Li Zhen's mother really couldn't help this son, she knew that he was lying to herself, but she still didn't expose it, she sighed and went into the kitchen, saw Han Meifang washing vegetables, and urged her: "You go to the chicken coop to see if there are any eggs, your brother is injured, you have to make up for it, if there are eggs, stew him egg custard at night." ”
Han Meifang's hand paused, and she replied quickly: "Okay, I'll go now." Li Zhen's mother was satisfied, Han Meifang touched the egg, the egg was still a little warm, Han Meifang swallowed her saliva and went to stew egg custard for her uncle. Now she has figured out one thing, in this family, her mother-in-law's words are holy decrees, but unfortunately her mother-in-law loves her brother-in-law the most, and she gives her brother-in-law whatever is good.
Li Zhen found a small bottle of wound medicine, applied some to himself, and looked at the bottle again, there was only one bottom left, threw the medicine bottle, put his hands on the back of his head, remembered the agreement with Chu Sheng, and smiled.
With Li Zhen's help, Lin Xi's dim sum sold quickly, and he got the goods once every three or four days, and the meat sauce cake sold the best. Lin Xi's time is limited, and there is only a supply of thirty copies at a time, which can basically be sold out on the first day, and someone even asked Li Qi to help reserve a little. Li Qi also ate it, it was really good, and he also helped to sell it. Chu Sheng looked at Lin Xi and counted the money proudly, and felt that he would be a little more light on Li Zhen in the future.
Li Zhen, who was beaten, was not unhappy, and the moves that Chu Sheng taught him worked very well. Although his body is always bruised and purple, he is happy to go back every day.
The wasteland is almost cleaned up, Lin Xi wants to reclaim the wasteland with the educated youth, this is the hardest work, Chu Sheng heard the news, and looked at Lin Xi worriedly. Lin Xi was also worried, but his face still looked relaxed: "Secretary Tang has been taking care of me for a long time, and I can't keep doing this, besides, everyone works together, they can take care of me a little, it's okay." ”
Chu Sheng is worried here, and Wang Xiaozhen is not happy over there, everyone knows that clearing the wasteland is the hardest work, and now her work is hard, but it is much better than clearing the wasteland. Yuan He looked at Wang Xiaozhen and said: "That's right, it's really hard for female comrades to do this work, but Tang Zhishu has already spoken, and we have to accept the task." Wang Xiaozhen's face fell instantly, and she said with a little dissatisfaction: "Yuan He, now that you are our captain, should you help the team members reflect upward if they are in difficulty." Yuan He sneered in his heart, I don't usually see you take me as the captain, and it doesn't work to put a high hat on me at this time.
"Since it's a special personal issue, I'll intercede for myself. At most, I helped beat the side drums, and besides, I'm not the captain, everyone is the same. ”
Wang Xiaozhen felt that Yuan He was prevaricating, and was a little unhappy, so she went back to the house to discuss with Yu Linlin, Yu Linlin didn't want to go, so she naturally hit it off, Zhou Laidi brought hot water in, Wang Xiaozhen saw it, and said, "Sister Zhou, pour me some water, I just wanted to pour water, but the water hasn't boiled yet." ”
Zhou Laidi helped Wang Xiaozhen fill the teapot and handed it to Wang Xiaozhen, listening to Wang Xiaozhen and Yu Linlin discuss how to talk to Tang Zhishu, Zhou Laidi was a little uneasy: "Xiaozhen, don't talk about this, in the past, the team dug ditches, and female comrades also went to work, and now it is better to open up the wasteland than to pick up the silt." The work was all arranged by the Tang branch secretary, and we took the initiative to ask for it, which is not good. "Sister Zhou, I can't do my farm work now, if I open up the wasteland, then I will jump into the river directly." Look at how long I've been here, my face is tanned, and my hands are thick. After speaking, he stretched out his hands to show Zhou Laidi. Zhou Laidi took a closer look at Wang Xiaozhen, this girl was a delicate flower when she came, but now she is wilted, and she has calluses on her hands, and she looks more and more like a rural girl, which is really pitiful.
Yu Linlin's eyes rolled, and she said: "Sister Zhou, this time we must go and say, let's go together, we are not evading labor, we are all lesbians, we have little strength, and some jobs are really not suitable for us to do." Don't worry, if you can say it, everyone can make it easier. ”
Wang Xiaozhen looked at Yu Linlin, Yu Linlin winked at her, although Wang Xiaozhen didn't understand Yu Linlin's intentions, she subconsciously chose to believe Yu Linlin, and said: "Sister Zhou, go with us and say, didn't you say that you had back pain last time? If you go to open up wasteland, you can survive? If you are really sick, there is no medicine in the health center." This sentence touched Zhou Laidi, and she fell into a dilemma.
As soon as Tang Jianguo entered the house, he saw three female intellectuals sitting in the courtyard waiting for him. Tang Jianguo knew in his heart, he still had a smile on his face, and asked: "Three comrades, are you looking for me something?" Tell me, what is the matter, if there are any difficulties, just say it, I will help if I can." Tang Jianguo's statement made the hearts of the three educated youths settle down all of a sudden, and several people looked at each other and smiled.
Wang Xiaozhen said the thoughts of the three of them, and Tang Jianguo showed a look of embarrassment on his face: "Spring ploughing is almost busy, and now in addition to opening up wasteland is a big task, the rest of the people have to repair the canal with the people from the next village, and make hemp rope." We still have a lot of work ahead of us. Yu Linlin glanced at Wang Xiaozhen, and Wang Xiaozhen had the courage to discuss with Tang Zhishu: "Do you want us to make hemp rope?" You also saw that my farm work is not very good, and I have already deducted a lot of centimeters, and I don't want to be a backward element all the time, do you want to give me a chance?"
Tang Jianguo looked at Wang Xiaozhen, then at Yu Linlin, and finally at Zhou Laidi, who bowed his head and was silent, and said: "You guys have discussed it, come to me to pick up work? It's all revolutionary work, and it's not okay to pick and choose!"
Seeing Tang Jianguo's official tone, Yu Linlin also stepped forward to say good things, Tang Jianguo looked embarrassed, someone came in at the door, Yuan He walked in with a smile, and said, "Yo, I'm here for a coincidence, everyone is here." Seeing Yuan He, Tang Jianguo scolded with a smile: "What, are you here to intercede?"
"What is the intercession, what is the matter?" Yuan He looked confused. Tang Jianguo saw that Yuan He really didn't know, so he told the three female intellectuals about their intentions, Yuan He smiled and handed over a cigarette and said, "Since I caught up, let's help me make a difference, they all live in the same courtyard." ”
Tang Jianguo lit a cigarette and scolded with a smile: "Stinky boy, you are here to intercede." Yuan He handed over another cigarette and helped to say a few kind words, which was nothing more than to take care of the new comrades, so that they could have a process of adaptation, etc. Yu Linlin and Wang Xiaozhen didn't expect Yuan He to be willing to help, and looked at Yuan He with gratitude.
Yuan He looked at the two of them and said meaningfully: "This job is chosen by yourself, so you have to do it well." Otherwise, you won't be able to embarrass Tang Zhishu in the future. "Definitely, definitely. Wang Xiaozhen and Yu Linlin almost didn't swear by the sky, they didn't expect things to go so smoothly today.
Yuan He looked at Zhou Laidi, Zhou Laidi hesitated, and was interrupted by Yu Linlin just as she wanted to speak: "Sister Zhou, let's go together, you are an old and young man, you can take us, okay?" Looking at the request in Yu Linlin's eyes, Zhou Laidi nodded. Yuan He smiled and didn't speak again.
It didn't take long for Lin Xi to get a notice that she was going to go to the wasteland with a group of educated youths starting tomorrow. Lin Xi made all the preparations and did a lot of psychological construction for himself, and after two hours of work, Lin Xi found that this work was not done by people.
Looking at Lin Xi, who was sweating, Yuan He wiped the sweat on his head and beckoned everyone to rest for a while. Liu Xia still has a little strength, and she can barely see it. Lin Xi's performance is obviously much worse, this work is not quantity or quality, this is not good!
Although everyone works hard together, the relationship between several people is not bad, and the male intellectuals are also considerate of the female intellectuals, and it is nothing for them to do more. Lin Xi took out the kettle and said to Liu Xia, "Bring a bowl and taste the tea I made." ”
"You've come up with something new?" Liu Xia gasped and handed over the bowl. Lin Xi poured half a bowl of tea for her, Liu Xia looked at the turquoise water, a little puzzled, Yuan He next to him came over, handed the bowl to Lin Xi, and said, "Bring me some." Lin Xi also poured some for him, and also gave it to everyone to taste, and explained to everyone: "This is a flower tea made from some plants, and I also add honey, are you used to eating it?"
"What's not used to eating, honey is a precious thing, it's good to eat some, give me some more?" Zhao Heng unceremoniously handed over the bowl. Lin Xi's first attempt was recognized by everyone, and he was a little proud.
After a bowl of belly, Yuan He wiped his mouth and said, "Listen, everyone, I have an idea, and I will discuss it with you." Now we are all working in the fields, but we also need someone to cook, don't you say? Eat better at noon, and have the strength to do things in the afternoon. I thought, how about we find someone to be in charge of everyone's lunch, so that we can hurry back to do it at noon?"
