Chapter 306: Exclusion

Zhang Cuilian planned to wait for the house to be cleaned up, and then invite the surrounding neighbors and Gu Zhicheng's comrades-in-arms to come over as guests. It's just that this cleaning up took almost two weeks, and it only exhausted her.

She did the house cleaning alone, and then Fu Xin came to deliver household appliances and then cleaned up the yard. Zhang Cuilian didn't pay too much attention to other things, only this home must be cleaned up comfortably. I don't know what's going on in this life.,It seems that there has been such a small problem since I was reborn.。

When I returned to Dong Lihua's side, it was the same now, and now I have run to this backward island.

It's just that her "pseudo-perfectionism" has indeed grown a little long, which has made some neighbors around her a little unhappy. According to the rules of the island, a new resident usually invites the surrounding neighbors to be guests, and the worst one will come to the door with a pot of red-skinned eggs to say hello together.

Gu Zhicheng, the new chief of staff, moved to a new house, but invited a neighbor to his house to drink. However, because there were no women in the family, there were also enthusiastic neighbors or family members of comrades-in-arms who came to help. They were all prepared at home and served to the table together with the non-staple food bought by Chief of Staff Gu. After that, Chief of Staff Gu gave money, even if everyone was embarrassed to resist, he insisted on accepting it.

In normal times, Chief of Staff Gu lives an extremely regular life, either living in the dormitory or going home to clean up the yard. Before his wife arrived, she had already cleaned up the toilet and raised the courtyard wall.

People around the island are rumoring that Chief of Staff Gu's wife is either ugly or handsome. Otherwise, why raise the wall, it's not that I'm afraid of people looking at it?

Ever since the courtyard wall was heightened and a new gate was replaced, the women on the island had been looking forward to Chief of Staff Gu's family. I heard that his daughter-in-law is still a college student, and she will run away and go to kindergarten after giving birth to a son. Everyone speculated that when his daughter-in-law came, he would go to the school on the island to become a teacher (teacher), and maybe even become the principal.

Zhang Cuilian was popular before she arrived, she didn't know that there were countless pairs of eyes looking at her since she went to the island. It's not just the old people who have nothing to do to bask in the sun, staring at her clothes and dressing. Even the neighbors around them are looking hard through the windows of their own homes with their necks stretched.

On the first day, Chief of Staff Gu carried a bag for her daughter-in-law and carefully accompanied her all the way home. Her daughter-in-law seemed to be pregnant, patting her chest as she went. Who hasn't been seasick, she is not only supported by a man, but also has to carry her bag. It's really unusual, the women on the island say so.

On the third day, she sailed out in a dress with two large arms exposed. One woman's family had not returned from the boat at night, so she slept outside for the night. The next day, he came back with a swaggering twist on his waist, carrying a lot of things in his hand. For the next few days, the boat on the island seemed to be driven for her family. The boxes of good things are taken home as if they don't need money.

Whatever is easy to take, the cups of water in their house are all in trouble. Obediently, such a woman who can spend money and is not very rude, Chief of Staff Gu actually didn't say a word.

The neighbors guessed that when the house was cleaned up, they would invite everyone to sit down when the rich and sophisticated belongings of their family were finished. What I didn't expect was that she didn't mention it when the house was all cleaned up. Then I slowly started to clean up the yard every day, and I got a tank today and a rocking chair tomorrow. I don't know, I think their family is going to open a furniture factory, and everything that doesn't need it will be rectified at home.

It began to be rumored on the island that in fact, the family of Chief of Staff Gu was not a college student. It's to do that, only that kind of woman would be so particular about tidying up her home. In order to make the 'benefactor' who came to the door take a high look, slowly everyone was proud of their contempt for Zhang Cuilian.

Zhang Cuilian didn't know, and it was impossible for Gu Zhicheng to hear this from the mouths of his subordinates. When his daughter-in-law came, Gu Zhicheng immediately retreated to the second line and became the shopkeeper. The allowance is still the same as usual, whether it is paid in cash or in the passbook, and it is all handed over to the daughter-in-law. If there was really a happy event, Gu Zhicheng said hello to Zhang Cuilian and then took the money from the iron box in the cabinet. Then write on the small notebook in the box, who has what to do on a certain year, month, and day, and how much money they have.

This is a customary habit after the two get married, and Gu Zhicheng does not spend much money, and the bulk of the expenses are favors. Zhang Cuilian will write him down in a notebook to make sure that there is evidence to follow.

Zhang Cuilian was so busy cleaning up the yard that she didn't even give an egg to her neighbors, and Gu Zhicheng also knew it, but she didn't take it to heart. He thought that since Zhang Cuilian had no intention of this, it would be better to take it slowly. Neither of them is the kind of person who has to cater to others, so the neighbors around them can't sit still.

Gu Zhicheng's comrades-in-arms and families are okay, and if they complain a few words at home, men will open their mouths to persuade them. For example, this is the rule of people's hometowns, or there is no need to distinguish between superiors and subordinates.

But what about the aborigines who live in the front and back yards of a nearby street and don't look up and look down? Their thoughts are not like this, they feel that Zhang Cuilian and her family look down on people a little. As a family member of an officer stationed there, this is a bit excessive.

Gradually, Zhang Cuilian also noticed that something was wrong, for example, when she went out to buy vegetables, others had a deliberate attitude towards her, even hostile.

Island C is nominally a county, and the population is distributed in various locations. The place where Zhang Cuilian lives is like a closed village, and everyone can see it at a glance from every outsider.

On this day, Zhang Cuilian got up early in the morning to go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables, even if she didn't know her standard Mandarin.

"How much is this eggplant a pound?" Zhang Cuilian pointed to a stall and asked politely.

"Sanmao!" The woman who accosted her was very dark, but her face had a thick plateau red. first looked Zhang Cuilian up and down, and then said casually.

Zhang Cuilian frowned, this price is sky-high in Q City. In this era, you can buy a meat bun for three cents to eat, especially in the summer, where every penny and a pound are rotten on the street.

Prices on this island are very low and it is absolutely impossible for this price to occur. She thought that she didn't understand the dialect, so she slowed down and raised three fingers politely: "Three cents? ”

The woman laughed at the person next to her and said something. Zhang Cuilian looked uncomfortable and couldn't help frowning. He turned around and went to another stall, and then another person stepped forward. is also a very honest farmer, and his Mandarin is reasonable: "Eggplant, how much do you give?" ”

Zhang Cuilian always visits the vegetable market, and said with a smile: "It's not up to me to say it, if I want to give a penny, then you have to be able to sell it!" ”

The woman Zhang Cuilian looked quite familiar, and guessed in her heart that it might be a local who had usually met one or two times. His attitude towards her became more and more kind, and he only heard the woman pat the vegetable stall next to her. With a happy face, he said, "A penny? Okay, you can buy it here! ”

Zhang Cuilian is a real person, and she didn't think much about it, because she had never seen anything laughing and playing tricks in her two lives. When she heard the woman say this, she happily walked over to the vegetable farmer and said, "Give me ten pounds of this eggplant!" ”

Eggplant is Gu Zhicheng's favorite vegetable, fried and eaten cold or stewed. And it is durable, even if it is out of water, it doesn't matter.

This time it was a man with a wrinkled face. I saw Zhang Cuilian squatting on the ground, picking eggplants seriously. Bar Rata Rata took two puffs of dry tobacco, and then asked Zhang Cuilian: "How much does this eggplant cost you, you can pretend it?" ”

Zhang Cuilian was stunned, and pointed to the side confidently: "This eldest sister said a penny!" When I looked back and found that the honest woman just now didn't know where to go, I was even more confused.

The vegetable farmer sneered: "Whoever sells you, you go to whom, I don't sell this price!" After speaking, he smiled and scolded the person next to him just now: "What kind of breed is this, fool." You can buy it wherever you ask, and you can't buy groceries! ”

Zhang Cuilian was so angry that she wanted to open her mouth and scold a few times and ask a few questions. But I feel that there is a ** share, the key is that I am afraid of losing Gu Zhicheng's face. She really couldn't figure out how people here could be like this.

Do business to the point where they can sell things? Just looking at these stalls, I haven't sold anything in the morning, and I look like I'm an uncle. pointed at the buyer, and Zhang Cuilian was angry.

"Don't talk about her, people in the city are family members of leaders!" Someone next to him deliberately pointed out the vegetable farmer in a loud voice. And the vegetable farmer replied in a higher voice, just to let Zhang Cuilian hear it: "What's wrong with the people in the city, the people in the city have to come here to buy vegetables." I don't care if he leads or not, what does it have to do with me. I don't do anything, I'm afraid of him? ”

It's really unreasonable, and I don't know if it's deliberately targeted or if it's like this.

Zhang Cuilian suddenly lost the mood to buy vegetables, and walked home with a bag. When I met a woman in a gray shirt, she smiled and asked, "Are you from out of town?" Angry, right? ”

Zhang Cuilian looked her up and down, then nodded with a blank face. The woman smiled and said, "I'm also from out of town, and I was like this at first. It's good to get used to it. ”

After speaking, the woman said to Zhang Cuilian: "Why don't we go shopping for vegetables together and go to the East Market to buy vegetables." There are people from other places, and their attitudes are good enough to count. Most of the markets here sell to locals. ”

Zhang Cuilian frowned and doubted: "A vegetable market, as for the locals and outsiders, are they separated?" ”

The woman giggled: "The locals do business separately from the outsiders, and they hate the outsiders for stealing the locals' jobs." However, the local people have a bad attitude towards business, and the things are not as fresh as those over there. When I meet someone with a foreign accent, I don't like to deal with it. ”

Seeing Zhang Cuilian looking at herself, the woman smiled and said, "My family lives nearby, and I just passed by and saw you being tricked by them." Oh, don't come here in the future. That old man is the least of a thing, and he is the one who makes the most trouble when he takes advantage. But at the critical moment, he doesn't care what kind of face he is grateful or ungrateful for. ”

Zhang Cuilian heard that there was something in the words, and couldn't help but inquire.

The woman sighed, "Hey, my man is a soldier on this island. In the first few days, a fellow villager put the sheep on the mountain and put them together, and when he lost them, he couldn't find them, so he ran over to ask for help from the troops. My man is one of the warriors who went to find the sheep, and he was not the one who lost the sheep! ”
