Chapter 387: Good News

The first day of December in the first year of Qiande (963 AD)

The weather is getting colder and colder, and the first snow falls on Qishan Island. The heavens and the earth were white.

In the morning, many notices were posted in the camp, and many people gathered around to talk about it.

"Haha, Mr. Zhao really didn't lie to us, he wants to find us a mother-in-law!"

"Really?"

"Of course it's true, the notice says it's written in black and white."

"Is it possible for everyone to find a mother-in-law?"

"Fool, are there so many women on Qishan Island? The notice stated that only the guards who had made meritorious contributions, as well as the workers, craftsmen, and farmers who had performed well in normal times, could marry a mother-in-law. ”

"What kind of mother-in-law to marry, can you choose by yourself?"

"It says that in the order of points, the top can pick the mother-in-law first."

"How do you get points?"

"Mainly by election, each unit on Qishan Island must vote to elect a group of advanced individuals, and then after the review of the leadership of the unit, those who meet the requirements will get the corresponding points according to the level of votes."

"Then what if this person has great ability, but his popularity is not good? He definitely won't be elected. ”

"Then there's no way, if you want to marry your mother-in-law, you have to have a good relationship with everyone."

At this time, there was a shout from outside the crowd: "Get out of the way, let Lao Tzu see, you bastards, don't tell Lao Tzu anything good." ”

Everyone looked back and saw that it was Du Dalei's house.

He had just come back from a morning run, his face covered in sweat and his head still steaming.

Du Dalei shouted: "What are you doing? Is it pie in the sky? ”

Everyone dodged a path and let Du Dalei walk in.

"Lao Du, are you willing to crawl out of Fu Hongyu's bed?"

"Did you let Fu Niangzi kick off the kang?"

"Hahaha! Lao Du must have been kneeling on the washboard last night, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to go out for a run early in the morning. ”

Everyone joked about Du Dalei, and this guy was not angry. He said triumphantly:

"You guys, you must be envious, jealous and hateful! There's no way to communicate with you single dogs. ”

It turned out that after Du Dalei came back, he lived with Fu Hongyu in a grand manner.

The shocking actions of the two people set off an uproar on Qishan Island. In this relatively conservative era, two people live together without getting married, which makes many people's jaws drop. A lot of people are talking about it.

Someone reported the matter to Zhao Zizhong, but Zhao Zizhong said lightly:

"The two of them can do it if they want, and they can do whatever they like, and tell everyone to be nosy."

Wei Hongye also came out to express his position: "Xiao Du and Fu Hongyu are both mavericks, it's good that the two of them are happy, anyway, they will get married in a few days, and a few days earlier is nothing." ”

Someone asked Na Zhe what he thought of this, and Na Zhe responded: "I have two women in my family, why don't Lao Du find one?" You bastards, what the hell! Get out of here! ”

When everyone thought about it, they all died down.

At this time, Du Dalei had already finished reading the notice. Someone asked: "Lao Du, you have a lot of ideas, you give us ideas, how can we marry a mother-in-law?" ”

Du Dalei pouted: "You bastards, you don't usually behave well, now you know that you are in a hurry, right?" I don't care about all this bullshit. ”

"Lao Du, don't bring this. You are a full man, you don't know how hungry a man is! You can do it, and give everyone a few tricks! ”

Du Dalei rubbed his chin with his hand, thought about it and said: "The core of the boss's announcement is that if you want to get votes, you must have good popularity. ”

"You still need to say it, everyone can see it. Just say, is there a good way to do it? ”

Du Da Lei Le: "Of course there is a way, but you have to pay some price." ”

"At what cost?"

"Hurry up."

"Isn't it money?"

"For the sake of my mother-in-law, spending some money is nothing."

Du Dalei yelled: "Shut up Lao Tzu!" Hear me out! ”

Everyone quieted down, and Du Dalei continued: "Do you know about bribery~ election? ”

"Bribe ~ election? What is this? ”

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing what it meant.

Du Dalei explained: "Bribing ~ election is the practice of sending money and goods to people who can vote, and then getting votes, everyone understands?" ”

Everyone suddenly realized: "It turns out that money is used to buy votes!" ”

Someone asked, "Lao Du, there are hundreds of people in our unit." The little money I've saved isn't enough for anything? ”

Du Dalei snorted: "Stupid, you don't have money, you won't go to the bank for a loan?" ”

Everyone stared at each other: "Is this okay?" Can the bank give us a loan? ”

"We don't have a mortgage, huh? Will the bank lend us money? ”

Du Dalei shrugged: "If you say you're stupid, you'll have a runny nose." You don't mortgage your payroll to the bank? ”

The crowd shouted, "High, really high!" Lao Du, you are too talented! ”

So everyone hulala ran in the direction of the bank at once, leaving Du Dalei alone in the same place.

Du Dalei shook his head: "These bastards are simply killing donkeys when they unload the mill!" Phew, bah, Lao Tzu is fucking nonsense again, Lao Tzu is not a donkey. ”

Du Dalei Shi Ran walked towards the cafeteria and met Na Zhe carrying a food box.

"Yo, isn't this our wife slave? Are you here to cook for Fang Juniang again? Du Dalei scoffed.

The food box in his hand was raised, and he said happily: "Lao Tzu is in a good mood, Lao Tzu is going to be a father." Lao Tzu is willing to be a wife slave, how about it? You haven't made Fu Hongyu's belly bigger yet? You're too slow, aren't you? ”

"What are you blowing? Fang Juniang has been here for more than a year, right? You're making someone's belly bigger, huh? What's there to brag about? ”

That Zhe was stopped, and decided to flash people. He said angrily: "Get out of the way, good dogs don't get in the way!" ”

Du Dalei pinched his finger joints: "Is your kid tight?" Do you want me to loosen it for you? ”

Na Zhe said: "Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and get out of the way for me, the porridge will be cold for a while, and Lao Tzu has no time to talk nonsense with you." ”

Du Dalei was about to make a move, but someone grabbed his neck from behind.

Na Zhe looked at it and breathed a sigh of relief. It was An Dalang who grabbed Du Dalei's neck, and Boris was standing next to him, and the two of them should have come back from boxing.

Du Dalei shouted, "Bastard, let go." Lao Tzu's neck is about to break! ”

An Dalang threw Du Dalei out with all his strength, and then said to Na Zhe:

"Third brother, go back quickly, otherwise the porridge will be cold in a while."

Na Zhe thanked An Dalang and left in a hurry.

Du Dalei got up from the ground and said angrily: "Da Lang, your shot is too heavy!" Lao Tzu almost lost his breath. ”

Boris said: "Old Du, don't be nonsense. Fang Juniang is pregnant, so Zhe should take care of her. You're on the washboard when you're fine. ”

Du Dalei saw that the two brothers' force value was higher than his own, so he decided to give in.

"Forget it, Lao Tzu confessed today. Let's go eat. ”

"Lao Du, why didn't Fu Hongyu come out with you?"

"Hey, don't say, don't say."

"Did you toss it miserably last night?"

"I know you're still asking?"

"You kid can."

So the three brothers walked to the cafeteria with their shoulders on their backs. When they entered the cafeteria, they saw Zhao Zizhong, Wei Hongye, Cui Zhaorong, and Zhai Xiaoshan sitting together, chatting while eating.

The three of them walked over and sat down with empty seats. After everyone said hello, Du Dalei asked, "Boss, what are you talking about?" ”

Zhao Zizhong said: "It's not a matter of finding a mother-in-law for everyone. ”

An Dalang asked, "Brother, how many women are willing to marry now?" ”

Zhao Zizhong looked at Cui Zhaorong, Cui Zhaorong took out a small notebook from his pocket, and then looked at it for a while.

"Ladies and gentlemen, there are more than 2,600 women of working age on the island, and about half of them are willing to marry."

Du Dalei asked: "Why are only half of the people willing to get married?" ”

Wei Hongye said: "Xiao Du, this is not bad. Women, you have to be reserved. And there are many women who still want to wait and see. They want to see what kind of men those women who are willing to marry will find. ”

Du Dalei nodded: "Then I understand, Boris, the brothers are all settled." What's the matter with you? You don't have a woman! Cui Daoshu is the son of a family, and it is common to find a few concubines. That bastard, I actually found two. More than Lao Tzu. Boris, don't you want to pick one of so many women? ”

Boris shook his head: "I'm not interested, I don't want to find a woman right now." ”

The brothers looked at each other, and it was difficult to say anything.

At this time, the sound of gongs and drums was heard outside the cafeteria. No one knows what's going on.

Du Dalei hurriedly ran outside, "I'll go out and have a look." ”

After a while, Du Dalei ran back.

"Haha. What a happy event! Qi Jiuniang is pregnant! Mrs. Cui sent people to beat gongs and drums to report good news to everyone! ”

The brothers were very happy, and Zhao Zizhong immediately stood up: "Don't eat it, let's go and say goodbye to the godmother." ”

Boris asked Wei Hongye: "Second brother, don't you know about this matter?" ”

Wei Hongye was also confused: "Nothing happened yesterday, who knew that such a big thing happened this morning." ”

Zhao Zizhong said: "Let's go quickly, we will know everything when we go." ”

So the brothers, Cui Zhaorong and Zhai Xiaoshan, walked out of the cafeteria and walked to the Cui family's small building.

On the way, An Dalang asked Zhai Xiaoshan: "When will your mother-in-law give birth?" ”

"Instructor, it's almost a month away."

"Haha, it's similar to my mother-in-law. Maybe our children will be a few days away. ”

Du Dalei began to encourage them: "Da Lang, Xiaoshan, why don't you marry a baby." Anyway, your children are all born in front of the feet. ”
