Chapter 120: The People of the City

Cai Ming breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you for saving me, I didn't speculate, I was wronged, but those people didn't believe what I said at all, and in a panic, I rode the car into the ditch." ”

"You can eat something first. Father Qiao said, Cai Ming's words are half-truths and half-truths.

Cai Ming thanked him and held the bowl, but he didn't eat it immediately, "When you saved me, what about the things around me?"

"Tucked away in a safe place. Father Qiao said coldly.

"That's good. Cai Ming breathed a sigh of relief, "My mother is sick and needs a medicine, but there is no one in the city, so I can only go to the countryside to collect it." ”

"I'm not speculating. "Cai Ming will not admit to this crime.

It was true that he had come out to look for medicine, and that herbs were not controlled products.

He finally collected all the herbs from several households, paid for them, and who knew that he would be recorded.

Besides, with his family's situation, does he need to speculate in person? Although the supply is tight everywhere now, his family can still make do.

Father Qiao didn't want to argue with him, "I saved you, no one in our brigade knows, you can't go out while you're recuperating, if you don't want to cause me trouble." ”

Cai Ming pursed his lips, "Thank you." He scooped a spoonful, and the smell of wild herbs made his stomach roll, he had never eaten such bad food.

Father Qiao saw that Cai Ming obviously hated the taste of this wild vegetable, but he still forced himself to eat it, and he couldn't help but nod with satisfaction, looking okay.

At this time, the sky was just dawning, Qiao's father went out to explain to Qiao Hongyuan, and asked him to emphasize it to his younger brothers and sisters and pay attention to confidentiality.

Father Qiao thought about the cafeteria, and he also had a headache, so he walked over slowly.

Halfway through, someone caught up and complained about Gao Yulian as soon as he opened his mouth.

"This year's harvest looks high, but it is not enough for half a year to 180 catties, and Aunt Lian is in charge of the canteen, but it is too irresponsible to do the laborious and laborious and lossy dried sweet potatoes. ”

Of course, they won't catch Qiao's mother and Qiao Jiayue's mistakes, but Gao Yulian can, there is too much oil and water in the canteen.

Even if Gao Yulian's popularity is good and her reputation is high, she can't stand someone who wants to replace her!

Father Qiao smiled faintly, "Cooked dried sweet potatoes are what I asked to do, and this is to prepare for the New Year." Aren't the rest of the sweet potatoes made into dried sweet potato strips?"

Because their alpine brigade did not have electricity, the commune did not require the brigade to hand over the task of sweet potato powder, so they generally sliced raw sweet potatoes, wiped silk and dried in the sun, but it was different under the mountain.

The person who complained didn't expect Qiao's father to say this, and couldn't help but be stunned, this really sounded fine.

"It turned out to be for the Chinese New Year. The man said awkwardly.

Father Qiao nodded, "Don't look at the New Year It's still very early, but you have to prepare early, accumulate food little by little, and the members can have a good Chinese New Year's Eve dinner." ”

"It's really admirable that the captain has planned for the members so early. ”

Qiao's father smiled, the plan must be the plan, but this rhetoric of dried sweet potatoes is for the aftermath of his daughter.

He planned to mention it to Gao Yulian, don't follow the child's opinion, everything in the cafeteria is collective, and it is best to hold a meeting to decide what to do.

As soon as Gao Yulian saw Qiao's father talking to her, she knew what it was for.

She apologized neatly and didn't explain herself, who didn't think about it.

Father Qiao saw that Gao Yulian was happy with the review, so he didn't say anything, and only asked Gao Yulian not to increase the ration standards of the reviewers, which was still the same as before the autumn harvest.

I don't know when the county party committee will come down, and if the ration standard of their brigade is too high, I am afraid that they will have to requisition a batch of grain.

Qiao's father walked around the village and told the cadres of the brigade, but he didn't dare to guarantee whether the other production teams would be happy.

Qiao Jiayue didn't expect that she was in good health, she came back last night to take medicine and drink ginger soup, and this morning she woke up a little nasal congestion, and she was alive again.

However, the second brother's health is much worse than hers, and he has a low-grade fever, which is also forbearance enough for Qiao's father, and he didn't even notice it just now.

Qiao Jiayue fed Qiao Hongyuan medicine, and forced him to drink a small bowl of rice cereal, and stared at him to continue sleeping.

Qiao Hongzhi quietly touched it, "Yue'er, who is that man?"

When Father Qiao and they came back last night, he and Qiao Hongliang had already fallen asleep, and it was really unclear.

Qiao Hongyuan turned his head sideways and looked at Qiao Hongzhi's eyes full of curiosity, and said unceremoniously: "You don't know if you say it." Can't let anyone know he's here, it's going to get Abba in trouble. ”

As long as Qiao Hongzhi keeps his mouth shut, no one else needs to worry.

Qiao Hongzhi thought for a while, "I don't talk about it, so can I talk to him?"

Seeing that Qiao Hongyuan still wanted to object, he quickly said, "You can't stop me, I'll only ask some questions." ”

"Second brother, I'm going to keep an eye on the eldest brother. Qiao Jiayue patted Qiao Hongyuan's hand.

In fact, she is also very interested in this Cai Ming, and she can test his family situation.

In those days, there was a big difference between urban and rural hukou, and there were many things that only urban people were eligible to buy.

If Cai's name is credible, maybe they can cooperate in the future.

Cai Ming sat down, fingers crossed, not knowing what he was doing. He looked at the two brothers and sisters who walked in one after another, and raised his eyebrows in surprise.

Qiao Jiayue looked at Cai Ming, compared to yesterday, his face was not so pale, his eyes were very special, and his eyes were particularly black, which made people can't help but stare at it.

The color of the black cloud above his head faded, and the shape of the cloud changed, and it looked like a ball at this time, which was quite strange.

"Hello. Cai Ming beckoned to them, "Is there anything you need me to help with?"

"What's your name, where are you from, are you having fun?" Qiao Hongzhi asked impatiently.

When Cai Ming heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, the dialect of Quanshi is the same, but the accent is different.

He has a keen voice, and he can guess at once that Qiao Hongzhi has a good foundation in Mandarin, and Mandarin has a faint northern accent.

When people from Mandarin speak dialects, there is a difference between them and natives, and Cai Ming suddenly became curious about Qiao's father.

You must know that even in the city, there are very few people who speak Mandarin, and they are often personnel from the municipal party committee and other institutions, and these people need to hold meetings, so Mandarin is relatively slippery.

Cai Ming didn't know where this brigade was, but he thought that he could stay for a few more days.

He knew that Father Qiao would not hand himself over to earn merit, and since this was the case, there was no need to leave in a hurry.

Cai Ming thought about it, and then chatted with Qiao Hongzhi, talking about the roads, buildings, cars, department stores and so on in the city.

In his description, life in the city is so beautiful that it is almost heavenly.

But as he spoke, Cai Ming's voice weakened, Qiao Jiayue hooked the corners of her lips, her expression did not change, and she was not interested in what was in his mouth.

As for Qiao Hongzhi, he will ask some content, but there is no yearning on his face.

Cai Ming was a little surprised, when he told people about this before, those people were all excited about city life, but this brother and sister's reaction was different, which made him more and more interested.
