Chapter 11: The Adoptive Father of the Wan Family
In three days, the other three sets of padded jackets were completed.
Zhong Yuxiu stretched her waist and thanked her with gratitude, "I haven't done it for a long time, it's really tiring; Sister Ruhong, Sister Jiang Mei, thank you for your hard work. "I helped her do needlework for three days, and she felt tired.
"It's not very tiring, it's easier than work." Jiang Mei shook her head and took the needle and thread.
Sun Ruhong lifted the quilt and got out of bed, stretching her waist, "Yuxiu! The fabric of these sets of clothes is good, and they can be worn for several years; I didn't have to make clothes for the next few years, and so did quilts. ”
Zhong Yuxiu nodded, but smiled silently, good days are ahead.
As he was talking, there was a commotion outside, not from the courtyard, but from outside.
"Let's go out and have a look."
As soon as the three of them put away their sloppy things, they went out of the room to see the male intellectuals gathering in the courtyard.
"You're out too, just right, let's go together." Luo Jianmin said a word and walked outside the courtyard.
Wang Yishan nodded and hurried to follow; Feng Jianjun smiled shyly and walked away quickly; In the end, Yan Rushan glanced at the female intellectuals and followed.
"I don't know why the village is so lively, let's go and see it?" Jiang Mei asked sideways.
"Let's go."
Both of them said so, so Zhong Yuxiu naturally went with them.
The group arrived at the place one after another, and most of the entire brigade came, surrounding three layers inside and three layers outside.
The three of them squeezed in and saw that surrounded in the middle were three gray-haired old men, the three of them were thinly dressed, their backs were bent, and they were full of embarrassment; However, it is not difficult to see the residual elegance of their bodies, which at first glance is the kind of old pedant.
Zhong Yuxiu's gaze fell on one of the people with gray temples, and he was undetectable; At the moment of his distraction, the memory of the original owner involuntarily appeared in his mind, and he instantly understood that it was the adoptive father of the original owner.
Wanxue soup!
He is far from the elegant and upright memory in the memory of the original owner, and the elegance and elegance of the previous Wanxue Tang appeared; Today's Wanxue Tang has half of his hair white, and he seems to be ten years old when he is old, his spine is bent, and he has no spirit.
"Yuxiu, Yuxiu......."
"Huh?" Zhong Yuxiu suddenly woke up, blinked subconsciously, and looked confused, "What's wrong?" ”
Sun Ruhong said: "It's time for us to go back, these are all stinky old nine from the devolution, there is nothing lively to see." "The educated youth in the countryside are much better than the decentralized, at least the treatment is the same as in the village, and the leftists who are delegated are miserable; Not only did the work be deducted half, but the place where I lived was poor, I couldn't eat enough and didn't have warm clothes, and I lived day by day.
"Let's go, go back to the bed and warm up." Luo Jianmin called friends, and the male intellectuals all went back.
Zhong Yuxiu had to nod, and before leaving, he glanced back at Wan Xuetang and the others who were bowing their heads, and followed the army back to the Educated Youth Academy.
When I returned to the Educated Youth Institute, Jiang Mei and the others all came to the countryside early, and the number of decentralized personnel I saw was not dozens but more than a dozen, and there was no freshness for a long time; Isn't it nice to go back to the room and talk to your roommates while lying under the covers?
Zhong Yuxiu leaned on the pillow, her thoughts could not be calm; According to the memory of the original owner, Wanjia was a red capitalist, with a big family and a big business, and the domestic assets were also declining, so they all donated, so they were sheltered by several big backers. It stands to reason that it shouldn't have been delegated, but what happened in just a few months?
"Sister Ruhong, Sister Jiangmei, I'll go out for a walk." Zhong Yuxiu got up and said.
Jiang Mei nodded: "It's cold outside, come back early." ”
"Hmm."
Hurriedly walked out of the door, crossed the gate of the courtyard, and went to the previous crowd gathering place first; Wan Xuetang and others were no longer there, and the members of the club scattered in twos and threes, talking a lot, and learned from them that Wan Xuetang and others were taken to the cowshed, and their footsteps turned to the cowshed.
Outside the cowshed, the captain and a few cadres were giving lectures, and the three old scholars were immersed in the training; When everyone was gone, the three old scholars also entered the cowshed, and she stepped forward and found a relatively hidden place to squat and listen to the movement.
However, after waiting for a while, no one was heard, and the sighs came intermittently a few times.
Several of them didn't have any clothes, not even a change of clothes, let alone bedding and other things.
Zhong Yuxiu stayed for a long time, and only turned around and left when he saw the cadres of the brigade send three beds of tattered cotton wool; At least with cotton wool, these people can't freeze to death.
Returning to the educated youth point, Zhong Yuxiu's heart was slightly settled, and the original owner repaid the kindness of the Wan family with his life; She doesn't owe Wan Jia, the current emotions are not hers, but the slight emotions left by the original owner.
The original owner couldn't let go of the Wan family, and she Zhong Yuxiu didn't owe Wan Wan, so she didn't want to contact Wan Xuetang more; However, in the production team, there is always a day when you look up and don't look down. For the little feelings left by the original owner, and in order to block Wan Xuetang's mouth, she should also do something.
After thinking about it, what they need most now is cotton clothes; Two sets of cotton clothes and two thin clothes will last you next year.
The policy is open, and these people will be rehabilitated and taken back.
made up her mind, Zhong Yuxiu turned over the cotton tire that she didn't use, and hurriedly went to the outside of the male intellectual's room; The door of the male intellectual's room was closed, and Zhong Yuxiu knocked on the window gently.
"Knock knock."
"Who?"
Zhong Yuxiu pursed her lips, "I, I have something to find Brother Yan." ”
"Squeak." The door opened, and Yan Rushan came and looked at her fixedly; Yan Rushan asked, "What's the matter?" ”
"Brother Yan, let's go to the side and talk." Zhong Yuxiu turned around and went to the corner of the courtyard, turned around and saw Yan Rushan coming over, pursed his lips, and said, "Brother Yan, do you have any old clothes that you don't want?" ”
Yan Rushan nodded, "Yes." ”
"How many?"
"I have three or four, and others should have two." Yan Rushan looked at her several times and asked, "What are you asking for?" ”
Zhong Yuxiu shook her head, "Brother Yan, don't ask, I'll use new cloth to exchange six old clothes with you, the older the better." ”
"Old clothes can be given to you, and the fabric is not needed; It's just clothes you don't want, it's just, you have to be honest with me, what do you do with old clothes? Yan Rushan saw her hesitation, and said: "We are all in a knowledgeable youth institute, if you don't say it now, we will know sooner or later." ”
Zhong Yuxiu was silent, Yan Rushan did not urge, and waited for a long time before seeing Zhong Yuxiu open his mouth.
"Then please ask Brother Yan to keep it secret for me."
"I'm not a big mouth." Yan Rushan glanced at her, looking unhappy.
"I naturally believe in Brother Yan, but it's just ......." Zhong Yuxiu gritted her teeth, "Don't hide it from Brother Yan, my adoptive father is among the people who are devolved today; I didn't expect him to be sent down, and when he arrived at our production team, his clothes were too thin, and I wanted to make two for him and send him over. ”
Yan Rushan's eyes narrowed slightly, "Your adoptive father?" I remember that when you were devolved, you were only dressed in two clothes, since it was your adoptive father....... "Why do you treat you harshly, you only have so much in the countryside."
"Brother Yan, don't ask, I'll send him this time." In the future, they will be well.
The air seemed to be frozen, Yan Rushan didn't speak, and Zhong Yuxiu could hear each other's breathing.
"Remember what you say." Yan Rushan spoke suddenly, turned around and went back to the house before the words fell, and sent a lot of old clothes over in a moment; At this time, old clothes are also a good thing, they can be used to paste insoles, so no one will throw away old clothes at will, "I have four bodies, and the others have taken two bodies out." ”
Zhong Yuxiu thanked him, said goodbye to Yan Rushan and returned to the room, turning out the fabric and cutting; Yan Rushan has four bodies, she cuts twelve meters over, and the others have two bodies and six meters each, which is enough for them to make a set of clothes.
