Leng Chenxu did not answer Wu Weiguo directly, but said: "You go to the town government tomorrow to find out what specific work Shi Dezhi is doing in the town government, and then ask him to meet, and say that Chief Leng went to Tang Qingfeng, thinking that he is like a liar, pretending to be Chief Leng's benefactor, in order to confirm the authenticity, I want him to help you inquire, in which year and month Tang Qingfeng saved the old chief's mother, such a big thing, it is impossible for him to forget the time!" ”

Wu Weiguo nodded: "Understood!" ”

Leng Chenxu continued to explain: "After you finish talking to him about this, you must secretly follow him to see what he will do and who he will go to." ”

"Yes."

……

In the field, the croppers support themselves with their hoes against the ground, so it is easier to stand in this way.

The big guys gathered in groups of three or five and talked about something enthusiastically.

"Have you heard, we're going to be contracting here soon!" Something that someone is excited about.

Someone answered: "There have been rumors about this since this summer, but there is no real movement, I don't know if it's true or not." ”

"I think it's eighty percent true." A well-informed farmer said: "I heard from my relatives that he has already implemented contract delivery there. ”

"Where are your relatives?" Someone inquired with concern.

"Sichuan."

Immediately, some people expressed their disappointment: "Sichuan is Sichuan, but we are another province, and the policies of each province are different. ”

If this is the case, they are all blindly happy, and I am afraid that such a good thing as contracting to the household will not fall on their heads.

The women who worked there were also gossiping in twos and threes, and they were not interested in the affairs of the state, and seven out of ten were in the family's house, and only a few were working, that is, they took a hoe to make the ground soft.

Because it is a cooperative system, although the farmers have nothing to do, the members have to work to earn work, and the production team will have nothing to do with everyone. A few years ago, the terraced fields were opened up in winter, but later it turned out that the terraced fields could not grow rice, but fortunately, they could grow wheat, so they were not dug in vain.

In the past, every time the farming season came, the leaders of the brigade were worried to death, and they didn't know what work to find for the members to do, and the terraces were only dug for a year, and they were resolutely stopped by the older men in the brigade, saying that if the team continued to work like this, they would die collectively in the office of the brigade.

Digging up fields in the mountains will inevitably destroy the vegetation on the mountains, causing soil erosion, and the lost water and soil will rush to the fields below the mountains, destroying the good paddy fields, and if it is serious, it may cause mudslides and endanger the personal and property safety of the villagers under the mountains.

Their children and grandchildren also live in this soil, and they don't want to be officials, do something immoral that will harm their children and grandchildren, and they will be scolded when they die.

However, if you don't arrange work, how can you distribute materials to members?

In the end, a leader of the brigade came up with a clever idea. That is, when there is nothing to do in the slack season, the members are asked to loosen the soil, loosen it today and loosen it tomorrow, mix the work, and distribute rations and other materials in a good name.

Because it is "mixed", the team leader is not strict, as long as the people arrive, so the members are so idle, and the working members seem very abrupt and different.

Among this alternative is Fang Wenjing, who is honestly hoeing the ground with a hoe.

She doesn't talk much, she doesn't like the short family of the east and the west, and she always feels that her life is not going well, so why do you manage other people's affairs? It's purely a casual meal.

A gossiping woman turned her head and said loudly to Fang Wenjing: "Sister-in-law Fang, don't hoe the ground, what is there to hoe, come and talk together." ”

Fang Wenjing raised her head and smiled at the woman, and continued to hoe.

The woman didn't give up and said, "Sister-in-law Fang, who is that young man who helped your eldest girl wash the vegetables yesterday, he looks strangely handsome." ”

In fact, someone had already inquired about Tang Xiaofu yesterday, and many people knew about the situation, but a country woman was like this, seeing a man and a woman together, two young people had to talk about it.

Fang Wenjing said lightly: "That's Xiaofu's classmate." ”

"Why did a male classmate come to your house? Do you still help your big girl with the work? The woman's words were full of gossip and some ill intentions.

Many women stared at Fang Wenjing.

Fang Wenjing was working in the fields, a little far away from the group of gossips, and every time he said a word, he had to raise his voice.

Fang Wenjing didn't want the conversation between the women to attract the attention of the men not far away, so she simply didn't pick up the ground, walked over and stood with those women, looked at the woman with a calm face, and said, "Since it's a classmate, why can't you go to my house?" Now it is not the old feudal society, and women are also half the sky!

The eldest girl in your family has already said that she is going to get married during the Chinese New Year this year, and she always talks and laughs with a few young men in the brigade, and sometimes even goes crazy, who in the village is talking nonsense? It's not like we were back then!

Besides, my eldest girl's classmates came to my house to tutor their homework, which is a serious matter, not a joke! We left him for a meal, and he helped with some work, which shows that the kid has eyes and is sensible! ”

Fang Wenjing's words sounded plain, but when she thought about it carefully, it had a deep meaning, and she slapped the woman's face with a bang.

The woman's face sneered: "I am just curious to ask casually, and I will provoke you to say so much." ”

Fang Wenjing smiled: "Don't talk much, isn't your tongue idle and panicked?" ”

Someone already looked at the woman with mockery, and the woman couldn't hold it on her face, so she slipped away by going to the thatched house, and fought back as she went, and said in a voice that others could just hear: "The mouth is as strong as a knife, no wonder men don't love their mother-in-law's hate!" The mother and daughter were kicked out! ”

Fang Wenjing only ignored her when she was farting, and asked the women: "I just vaguely heard you talking about the Tang family, what are you talking about them?" ”

A woman said: "Yesterday, the big man in the town, Chief Leng, and his grandson went to the Tang family, do you know?" ”

Fang Wenjing nodded: "I've heard others say it." ”

Another woman said: "Your brother-in-law Caiyun told us that their Tang family is the benefactor of Chief Leng's mother, and when they came to repay the favor, they took out a thousand yuan to their family casually, and they confiscated it!" ”

Immediately, a woman pouted in disbelief: "The Tang family is the most greedy for money and stingy, people send all the money to the door, will they not accept it?" I don't believe it! Speaking of this, thinking that Fang Wenjing was also the daughter-in-law of the Tang family, she hurriedly explained: "I'm not talking about you, I'm just talking about the Tang family." ”

Fang Wenjing smiled and said, "I'm not a fool, I understand." ”
