Chapter 81: I Want Him
"No, Xiao Zhou, you are the representative of the educated youth, your time is expensive, unlike Xiaomi, there is nothing important in the first place, and it doesn't matter if you run."
"Who said it doesn't matter, she said it nicely and she has her own travel expenses, but how much money can she have like that? At that time, it will not be used in our village. ”
"The supply and marketing cooperatives in the county all said that they didn't accept her and they had to go, I think she is a liar, these educated youths are all liars, the hazelnut mushrooms can't be sold at all, they are still pretending to fool people."
Amy listened to everyone's discussion in her ears, raised her eyebrows slightly, and suddenly had other thoughts in her heart.
She smiled and said, "I know what you're worried about, so you're welcome to elect someone to oversee me." ”
The village party secretary nodded approvingly, "I think Comrade Xiaomi's proposal is okay, everyone votes/votes for one person, and let that person supervise and help, so that everyone can rest assured." ”
After he made the decision, he proposed to let everyone choose people.
Folks, you look at me, I look at you, and shirk each other: "I still have a few little dolls to watch at home, I can't go." ”
"My daughter-in-law has a body, I have to watch it at home."
"I've had a cold for the past two days, and I can't help when I go, so let's choose someone else."
Mrs. Wang is willing to help, but firstly, she is old, and secondly, Niuniu also needs an adult to take care of her, so she can only watch Amy anxious.
Several aunts who had a good relationship with Amy also thought about whether to help, but when they thought of the big family in the family, they didn't dare to raise their hands.
Finally, a singleton with a thief's eyebrows and rat eyes stood up.
"I'll go."
Zhou Yize frowned fiercely.
"Old branch secretary, Xiaomi is a lesbian, is this inappropriate?"
The village party secretary glanced at the bachelor and knew that he was the most unobtrusive on weekdays, and he always liked lesbians cheaply, and he had been warned several times, of course he would not agree.
But after he was not allowed to go, no one raised his hand.
Zhou Yize glanced at the team of educated youths and pointed at Zhang Hui.
"How about you go with Xiaomi?"
Zhang Hui originally had this thought, but she hadn't made up her mind yet, and of course she agreed when she was named at this time.
But the people of the village were not happy again.
"I said that I was going to supervise, you are all together, you must be towards your own people, I don't agree."
Zhang Hui was dissatisfied, and couldn't help but reply: "Then according to what you say, if it is the people in the village who go, it must be towards the village, then I don't agree." ”
The villagers did not agree with the educated youth to help Amy, and the educated youth did not agree with the villagers to help Amy, and the matter was suddenly deadlocked.
But the corners of Amy's mouth were slightly hooked, and that was what she wanted.
She asked the village party secretary and everyone to scratch their heads and be embarrassed for a while, before she opened her mouth and said as if unintentionally: "Since both sides are afraid that supervision will not be in place, can we find someone who is neither an educated youth nor a villager?" ”
"How can there be such a person in the village?"
Chaoxia said as soon as she opened her mouth, her tone was very dissatisfied.
But the village party secretary took the long old cigarette stick and knocked it hard in the palm of his hand.
"There really is one in our village, but you definitely don't like it."
Amy immediately reacted to who he was talking about, and immediately said seriously: "I am serving everyone this time, as long as the old branch secretary says it, I will obey it absolutely." ”
The village party secretary likes obedient and manageable people the most, and as soon as she said this, all the previous dissatisfaction disappeared cleanly.
"Well, well, that's an example for everyone. I'm talking about Mingke, who was put in the cowshed for transformation, he is not an educated youth or a villager, and he is not familiar with everyone, so it is most appropriate for him to supervise Comrade Xiaomi. ”
It stands to reason that people who have been put down for reform cannot leave the village.
But Mao'er Village was originally biased, and he never really regarded Mingke as a person with many crimes, and he didn't usually restrict/restrict his actions.
But Mingke's identity is special.
Therefore, although Amy wants to fulfill Mingke's wish - let him go out for a walk, she does not say it explicitly, otherwise it will not succeed, and it will also arouse the suspicion of others.
Therefore, she deliberately mentioned having people supervise, and according to what she knew about the people in the village, she knew that they would definitely not be happy to let other intellectuals supervise her, and she would think that those people would shield her.
And as long as the people in the village disagree, the educated youths will definitely make trouble.
In this way, in the end, only Mingke can be chosen.
Even if everyone didn't make a fuss at first, Amy had a way of directing everyone's thoughts in this direction.
And when the village party secretary proposed this candidate, everyone quieted down.
After a while, Mrs. Wang spoke: "Isn't this okay? Xiaomi is a girl, that Mingke is a man, and if his identity is known to others, it will not be good for Xiaomi's reputation. ”
Aunt Li also nodded.
"That's not a good thing to say."
The village party secretary took two puffs of cigarette and waved his hand with a smile.
"It's far away to go to the big city, maybe I'll have to rest in the hotel over there for a day or two, it's convenient to let the lesbians follow, but if there is really any danger, how can the two lesbians do it?"
"Gay men are bold and bold, they can help Comrade Xiaomi lift hazel mushrooms, and they can also help run away when they meet those bad guys, I think it's quite suitable."
Most of the people in the village have never even been to the county seat, let alone the big city.
Listening to what the village party secretary said, I felt that it made sense.
Liu Jianfang and Chaoxia couldn't get used to Amy, and wished that she had a bad reputation, but when they heard that bad element, they were also happy in their hearts, and of course they would not object again.
But Zhou Yize is still not very relieved.
"Although it is fairest to let Mingke supervise him, we are not familiar with him, and we don't know how people are, whether there will be any thoughts."
He promised Amy's eldest sister to take good care of her, so he must not talk and count.
"Don't worry about this, Mingke has been in Mao'er Village for many years, and he has never made any trouble, so he is very worry-free, didn't he send Niuniu back from the mountains last time, the person is not bad."
The village party secretary thought about it and had no better choice, so he helped Mingke say good things.
Zhou Yize saw him like this and knew that this matter was not negotiable, so he had to change the topic and said: "Then Xiaomi said that if he didn't sell the hazelnut mushrooms this time, he would give the round-trip fare, and if he did, shouldn't the village give some rewards?"
After all, she is also doing things for everyone this time, and she is also going to a big city where she is not familiar with life, and she doesn't know what dangers she will encounter on the way. ”
Mrs. Wang was the first to raise her hand in agreement.
"She's a female doll going so far, isn't it to sell the hazelnut mushrooms in our village? We have to have a conscience. ”
Niu Niu and several aunts also raised their hands.
Even Liu Jianfang said good things for her: "Xiaomi is still at the risk of being gossiped about, it's all for the big guys." ”
Amy looked at her in surprise, wondering what the hell she was trying to do this time.
Liu Jianfang noticed her gaze, but showed a bright smile.
"Xiaomi, don't worry, I must be on your side."
Even she has expressed her position, and of course the others have no opinion.
Yan Xiaoxi hadn't tried a lot of ways to knock Amy down before, so of course she would not let go of such a good opportunity this time, and she also raised her hand to support it.
So, the person who accompanied Amy out to sell hazelnut mushrooms was decided - Mingke.
Once the person has decided, it's time to choose a place.
Zhou Yize said directly: "I think it is most appropriate to go to the provincial capital, where there are many people and it is safe." ”
The provincial economy is of course the most developed, and the chance of selling hazelnut mushrooms is also the greatest.
And the security of the provincial capital will be better than that of other cities, so Zhou Yize was the first to think of the provincial capital.
But Amy has her own plans.
She opened her mouth and said, "I want to go to Jiangcheng." First, the provincial capital is too far away, inconvenient and the fare is also very expensive, and when you go there, you must live in a guest house outside, and the guest house in the provincial city must be very expensive.
Even if the hazelnut mushrooms are sold at that time, they may not be enough for accommodation and fare, which is not cost-effective. Moreover, Jiangcheng is also a big city, and there must be supply and marketing cooperatives willing to harvest hazel mushrooms.
The most important thing is that it is close, and my house is also over there, so it is more familiar, and I can find someone I know to live in, and I can save money on living in a guest house. ”
Amy is well aware that the villagers' primary concern is money.
Because once the hazelnut mushroom is sold, then all the money she goes out with is counted in the brigade.
If they use too much, they will share less when they divide the accounts according to work during the New Year, and of course no one is happy.
Therefore, Amy did not leave the word money in every word.
Therefore, when there is a chance to sell hazelnut mushrooms, everyone will definitely prefer to let her go to Jiangcheng, which is closer and more economical.
Zhou Yize glanced at Amy and objected: "But although Jiangcheng is big, it is still much smaller than the provincial capital, and because it is close, it is more likely that they have hazel mushrooms over there, what if they can't sell them at that time?" ”
In his selfish heart, he didn't want Amy to work in vain, otherwise he would be said unpleasantly by the villagers when he came back.
Amy smiled and said, "Team leader, the two of us are in Jiangcheng, have you ever seen hazelnut mushrooms before?" Besides, as I said before, if I can't sell it, I'll pay for the fare.
If I don't sell it in Jiangcheng, I don't have much time to delay, and I don't have much money, and I can still support it.
If you can't sell it if you go to the provincial capital, then the time delay is much more not to mention, and I can't get that much money, right? ”
Zhou Yize still felt that it was inappropriate, but he couldn't refute Amy's words.
Yan Xiaoxi didn't want to see him care about Amy so much, so she hurriedly took the opportunity to interrupt unhappily.
"So in that case, let's all vote/vote, how about the minority obeying the majority? After all, selling hazelnut mushrooms is the business of everyone in our village, and we have to let the big guys make a decision together. ”
