CHAPTER XXVII
She guessed correctly, two days after Liu Lan left, Zhou Aihua came to find Grandma Zhou.
Zhou Xiaoran suspected that she was specially called by Grandma Zhou to transfer the firepower.
Aunt Zhou is middle-aged, and she can still see the demeanor of a flower in the team back then, but the life of worrying about firewood, rice, oil and salt over the years makes her face look a little mean.
Holding his youngest son, who was only one year old, he saw Zhou Xiaoran and began to bombard: "You write to your mother and ask her to tell Secretary Wang about it, recruit Erchun back, where is our Erchun not doing well, and we want to reduce her to go home, it's not because her master hurt her, why doesn't your mother help talk, she has such a good relationship with Secretary Wang, let others bully us Erchun, is she such an uncle!" Sure enough, it's not a family with us! β
Oh, I'm afraid I'm talking about this because I heard Grandma Zhou's chatter for a long time, she and her mother are not their Zhou family.
Zhou Xiaoran glanced at Grandma Zhou, Grandma Zhou was a little embarrassed, and returned to normal after a moment, looking as a matter of course.
"Aihua, you put your heart in your stomach, if the third girl doesn't help you, I will write to Chen Yun, I'm not afraid that she won't listen to me." Of course, she had the confidence, so she agreed to Chen Yun's marriage with her second son with a big belly, and Chen Yun didn't dare to say a word to her.
Zhou Xiaoran thought, can't let Grandma Zhou write a letter, this matter is obviously not possible, according to her mother's temperament, she must not embarrass herself to death.
"Aunt, who are you listening to? Li Erchun was reduced by her master? β
Aunt Zhou was stunned for a moment, and immediately shouted: "It was Erchun who told me personally, is it possible that there is still a fake?" Don't try to shirk your mother, it's all because she refuses to help us Erchun that that old pious woman succeeds. "The old pious woman refers to Li Erchun's master.
"But what I learned is not like this, the Lanzi of the Liu family is the one who entered the factory with Erchun, she came to me two days ago and told me about it, saying that Erchun was reduced by the factory because of the failure of the political and ideological report, and said that she was the lightest punishment for the reduction, and if it was serious, she was arrested and deducted all kinds of hats, and it was difficult to guarantee that it would not affect the family."
Grandma Zhou and Aunt Zhou were shocked!
At this time, if you want to say that you have a problem with your political ideology, you can't take it lightly, if it is serious, it may really be like what Zhou Xiaoran said, and everyone in your family will be affected.
Of course, Liu Lan only mentioned such a sentence at that time, Zhou Xiaoran estimated that the main reason was that Li Erchun didn't know how to be a person, there were too many people who offended, and he didn't work well, so he wouldn't just grab the pigtails, but with Grandma Zhou, they were going to get bigger.
Aunt Zhou hesitated and said, "Did Liu Lan tell you?" How can you believe it, Erchun said that Liu Lan already had opinions about her, and she could have helped her, but she didn't care because of some small contradictions. β
Zhou Xiaoran was happy, "What kind of grudge does Liu Lan have with her, why do you want to tell me a lie, besides, these things are not a secret, they are all erected as a typical, you go to the provincial city factory to inquire, everyone knows, aunt, Erchun is afraid that you will beat her, and she didn't tell you the truth." β
Aunt Zhou burst out, "This little rabbit cub!" See if I don't go back and peel her skin! β
Aunt Zhou went back angrily, and Grandma Zhou shouted from behind: "You slow down, you are still holding the child, such a big person can't learn to stabilize the point." β
"Grandma, then I'll go first, there's still a lot of work to do."
"Xiaoran, Xiaoran, wait, your grandmother still hasn't said anything." The eldest aunt stopped Zhou Xiaoran and frequently glanced at Grandma Zhou.
I saw Grandma Zhou's mouth open for a long time, and she said, "I have some snacks, you can take them back and eat them." After speaking, he took out a bag of oiled paper from his pocket for a long time and handed it to Zhou Xiaoran.
Zhou Xiaoran really wanted to go out and see if it was raining red in the sky, this was the first time in history! She didn't dare to take it, and looked at the aunt, what kind of medicine is sold in this gourd?
The eldest aunt said to her Nunu and said, "Don't hurry up and take it, your milk hurts you, and we Xiaohong Xiaobing are reluctant to give it." β
Then she won't dare to take it.
Unexpectedly, the eldest aunt took it and stuffed it into Zhou Xiaoran's pocket, "You kid, this is your own mother, I'm embarrassed to ask for snacks for you, what's so embarrassing." β
was stunned and let Zhou Xiaoran take the oil paper bag home.
When I opened the oiled paper packet, it was a bag of dim sum dregs..... In fact, this is very common at this time, many people can't even eat dim sum, Zhou Xiaoran is not hungry for this bite, and gave it all to Yang Hao when he went to work.
Unexpectedly, the next day, Yang Hao brought her two pieces of peach crisp....... Much better than her dim sum dregs........ This kid is genuine!
"I've found a good place, would you like to go?"
Zhou Xiaoran was curious, "What's a good place?" β
"You'll find out if you come with me."
The two walked from Stone Ridge to the mountain, and Yang Hao was still carrying a shotgun.
"You don't want to go deep into the mountains, do you?"
Yang Hao walked in front, and when he heard the words, he turned his head to look at her, "Are you afraid?" β
Yes, she was afraid, she heard that there were wolves and wild boars in the mountains, and she was afraid of death.
Yang Hao sneered, "Why did you stop, don't worry, it won't go deeper, I'll beat the rabbit." β
Zhou Xiaoran thought about it, Yang Hao is also a reliable child, so he can't joke with his own life.
Yang Hao walked in front happily, he had never seen such a timid girl, and the little girls in their team were all bold.
"There's a bunny!"
A gray rabbit swooped through the trees.
"Don't be surprised to ventilate the rabbit."
Well, she shut up.
"Pengβ"
fell to the ground, and Zhou Xiaoran ran over to pick it up.
So fat! Spicy Bunny! It's almost watering.
After walking forward for a while, Yang Hao suddenly turned to look at Zhou Xiaoran, "We have arrived." β
What the?
A sea of flowers appeared in front of Zhou Xiaoran's eyes.
A long hillside, overgrown with yellow and white daisies, at this time the sunset also spread obliquely, a faint golden light enveloped the surroundings, and the wings of butterflies and bees seemed to become transparent.
In Yang Hao's eyes, Zhou Xiaoran was the closest to him at this time, and when he was close, he could see the shallow fluff on the tips of her ears, he could smell an inexplicable aroma emanating from her, and he could hear her gentle and shallow breathing.
"Quick, come and help me pick more, I want to make chrysanthemum tea!"
The thoughts in Yang Hao's heart were suddenly interrupted.........
resigned himself to helping Zhou Xiaoran pick chrysanthemums, in his imagination, at this time, they should be sitting side by side watching the sunset, the reality is so cruel!
I didn't expect there to be such a place, Zhou Xiaoran thought happily, and secretly pulled out two chrysanthemums and threw them into the space.
Well, the harvest is full, these are enough, and if you want it in the future, you can pick it directly from the space.
On the way back, he harvested another rabbit, white, with a very beautiful coat, Zhou Xiaoran was wondering, should I keep it for winter to make a scarf or gloves.
So, she brought the white one home, and Yang Hao wanted to give her the other one as well, but she sternly refused..... How embarrassed to monopolize it.
In the evening, I had a delicious meal of rabbit meat and a glass of wine.
Zhou Xiaoran also left a bowl for Yang Hao, they have many families, and they may not be able to get a few pieces of meat.
"Have you been lazy lately?"
Zhou Xiaoran paused, this dead child, give him meat to eat and expose her shortcomings, she hasn't been up the mountain to hug pigweed much recently, the sun is too spicy, just use the pigweed stored before in the space, and occasionally mix some vegetables grown in the space.
"You hurry up and finish eating, I'll take the bowl back, and you can help me sweep the pigsty today."
Yang Hao took a mouthful of meat and stuffed it into his mouth, and responded with a smile, "No problem." "He didn't clean up less anyway.
yes, that's the good boy!
"Zhou Xiaoran, what do you want to do in the future? Is it possible to feed pigs here for a lifetime? β
Eh, why did she suddenly talk to her about such a profound question, seriously, she didn't know what she wanted to do in the future, she wanted to be a makeup artist in her last life, and then she was strangled in the cradle by her father, and in this life..... I haven't thought about it, according to the trajectory of the previous life, when this movement passes, there will be nine years, at that time she was 25 years old, and there are children without accident, she used to plan to take the college entrance examination, not for anything else, just to learn more knowledge, now.... She still plans to do so, Yang Hao asked her what career she wants to do in the future..... She really didn't know.
"Anyway, I won't feed pigs here for the rest of my life, maybe I will become a good wife and mother in the future." Zhou Xiaoran joked.
Yang Hao was stunned for a moment, "That.... Don't you want to stand taller and see farther? β
"Where do you stand? Where is the distance to see? Zhou Xiaoran pursed her lips and smiled, she remembered a sentence in her previous life, "How big the heart is, how big the world is, don't look at me feeding pigs here, in fact, my heart is swimming in the Maldives." β
"Maldives.... Where is it? β
"In the Indian Ocean."
"Indian Ocean .... Where? β
β.......... You'll find out later. β
"That.... I'll take you there later. β
Zhou Xiaoran smiled, "You can take your daughter-in-law in the future." β
Yang Hao pursed his lips and didn't speak.
Zhou Xiaoran didn't care too much.
The next day, she was called by Uncle Yougen.
"Xiaoran, you've been on the team for almost a year."
Is there something wrong with this opening statement?
"It's been ten months, Uncle Yougen."
"Well, your performance has always been very good, I saw it, you raised this year's pigs very well, it's only been more than 100 catties in half a year, it can be seen that you put your heart into it."
"This is what I should do, I strive to raise 200 catties at the end of the year, so that the members can share more meat."
Uncle Yougen nodded with satisfaction, "Well, your consciousness is very good, it seems that it is right to send you the job of raising pigs, and it is not in vain that I fought for you in the team at the beginning." β
Zhou Xiaoran said gratefully, "I always remember that Uncle Yougen took care of me, and I will definitely repay your kindness in the future." β
"Hey, there's no need to repay it, I have been friends with your father for many years, I remember that when our second boy was just half a year old, I heard that your father had a daughter again, and it can be seen in the letter that he is very happy."
Zhou Xiaoran listened with a smile, waiting for Uncle Yougen to get to the point.
"As for me, I'm not as blessed as your father, I have a good girl, I'm just two stinky boys, naughty all day long, don't give me peace of mind."
Uncle Yougen took a sip from the enamel cup and continued.
"However, I can't ignore anything, the eldest son has already married a wife and had children, and he is doing a good job in the commune, I just worry about this younger son, he is seventeen years old, and he is not sensible."
Yang Hao? What does Yang Hao have to do with him?
Uncle Yougen looked at Zhou Xiaoran hesitantly, "I don't know, did Ergou tell you?" β
Zhou Xiaoran was at a loss, "What did you say?" β
Uncle Yougen sighed when he saw this.
"Hey, this kid, you don't know the feelings yet. On this team, I have a recommended quota for the University of Workers, Peasants and Soldiers, and I gave up this old face and wanted to give the quota to my second dog, but this kid refused to live or die, saying that he wanted you to go. β
Zhou Xiaoran was really stunned, Yang Hao gave her the place recommended to go to the Workers' and Peasants' Soldiers' University!
No wonder, no wonder you said such strange things to yourself yesterday.
But.... Why?
At this point, Zhou Xiaoran had to face up to some problems, she had always regarded Yang Hao as a little boy, ignoring the fact that he was actually one year older than her now, now in retrospect, Yang Hao is very good to herself, an adolescent boy is so good to a person of the opposite sex who is about the same age...... It can't be that simple, right.......
Zhou Xiaoran came back to his senses.
"Uncle Arigen..... I didn't know about it...... I..... I'll tell you the truth, I'm not going to go to the University of Workers, Peasants and Soldiers, you know, I'll get married when I'm older, and I'll definitely be in the army at that time, so.... You don't have to worry. β
Uncle Yougen immediately put his mind at ease, his hands trembled with excitement, and he could see it, but he was afraid that his second boy had strange thoughts about Xiaoran's girl, but.... Everyone is a person with an object, the object is still a soldier, knowing that it is impossible, but he still has to rush to be good to others, isn't this a mallet.
"Xiaoran, don't worry, as long as you want to go, wait until the next time, Uncle Yougen will definitely recommend it to you, Ergou, Uncle Yougen has to ask you for help, this kid is so stubborn, I won't listen to what I say."
Zhou Xiaoran agreed.
She directly explained to Yang Hao that she didn't want to go to the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University.
Unexpectedly, after Yang Hao heard what she meant, he said, "You don't want the quota I gave you, do you?" Because I gave it to you. β
What do you mean?
Without waiting for Zhou Xiaoran to react, Yang Hao threw over a sentence of 'I know', and left in style.
Zhou Xiaoran is a little confused, what does he know?
Forget it, anyway, the matter explained by Uncle Yougen has been resolved.
