Chapter 397: The Seventies (29)

"Branch secretary, in previous years, the model workers were all gay, but this year I went to be a lesbian, isn't that okay?"

"Daughter-in-law Changgen, what you said is wrong." The branch secretary said with a smile, "Now there is a new society, and men and women are equal. What's more, the leaders all say that women can hold up half the sky. Therefore, there is never a distinction between men and women in the selection of model workers. The reason why our village elected gay men in previous years was because gay men worked hard, worked hard, and performed well, but this year, everyone has seen that although Xu Yin is a lesbian, her performance is better than that of gay men. Guys right, right? ”

"Yesβ€”"

The matter of the model worker was thus decided.

Xu Laosan was even happier than Xu Yin, as if he was the one who was elected as a model worker, he took out the filter cigarettes that he was usually reluctant to smoke and distributed them to a few villagers around him who had good friendships.

Even happier is yet to come - the grain his family received in the first half of the year ranks in the first echelon of the whole brigade.

What does the first echelon mean? - There are several people in a family, and almost everyone gets full work.

Xu Yin's family of three people who went to the ground to earn work, Xu Laosan got full work, Chen Huilan got 7 points, and Xu Yin took double the full work points when she grabbed it, making up for Chen Huilan's lack of part, so calculated, her family of three people is almost 10 points per capita.

Together with several other families with strong labor and wealth, they advanced to the first echelon.

What an incredible thing!

The villagers who did not squeeze into the first echelon looked at Xu Laosan's eyes, which one was not envious.

Not to mention the daughters in their family, their sons in the prime of life can't get double their work.

Unexpectedly, Xu Laosan, who gave birth to three daughters, enjoyed this blessing!

In the envious eyes of everyone, Xu Laosan pushed the cart full of grain and went home.

Of course, it was Xu Yin who pushed the cart.

He and his daughter-in-law walked on both sides of the cart, majestic and high-spirited, escorting home the food they had earned for half a year.

"I'm going to Chungmi! Chung new rice! Eat new rice tonight! ”

As soon as he got home, Xu Laosan took the rice bag and then carried a basket of millet to the team headquarters.

There is a large stone mill for each family.

Xu Laosan was worried that he would have to queue up if he went late, after all, who didn't want to taste this year's new rice, so he walked in a hurry on the road.

"Ouch-"

Patronizing the road, he didn't pay attention to his feet, and stepped on a round stone, slipped it, and the man planted it to the side.

Oops, oops, oops! The millet is going to be sown!

He said anxiously.

Just as he was about to fall, someone rushed over and grabbed him and held the basket steadily.

Xu Laosan let out a long breath and patted his chest to soothe the frightened heart.

"Thank you, boy! It's almost over! ”

Xu Chengjin smiled faintly: "You're welcome, it's a gesture." ”

"Yo, you're still a cultural person!"

Xu Laosan's most admired person in his life is a cultural person, or he would not have sent his two daughters to study.

It's a pity that the second daughter has no scholarly fragrance, she has been in elementary school for five years, she doesn't know what she reads, and she came back with two thirty points after graduating from primary school, so angry that he almost beat her with a broom. Now I am counting on my little daughter, hoping that she is a scholar.

"The young man is an educated youth, right?"

Xu Laosan looked at him handsome and well-dressed, with a white short-sleeved shirt on his upper body, a pair of dark blue trousers on his lower body, and a pair of down-to-earth mille-feuille shoes on his feet, but he was actually wearing socks.

Ouch hey!

On such a hot day, even his daughter-in-law went out with a set of cloth shoes, whose man wore socks?

Tut!

Xu Laosan sighed in his heart: The educated youth from the city are different! Pay attention to people!

"Well, uncle going to mill rice?"

"Yes, yes! Today's grain has been distributed, go and eat some new rice. Xu Laosan said excitedly, "My daughter's cooking is delicious, and it must be better to cook it with new rice!" By the way, didn't your educated youth station distribute food today? ”

Seeing that the other party was empty-handed, he asked casually.

Xu Chengjin shook his head: "Not yet, I said that it would be tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." ”

"Come on, come on, I'll treat you to a new meal."

In front of him was the brigade headquarters, Xu Laosan grabbed him and asked him to wait for a while.

"If I hadn't pulled me without you, I would have fallen, and if people didn't say it in advance, the basket would definitely fall over, and the grain would be scattered all over the ground, and I don't know how long it would take to pick it up, so you helped me a lot."

Xu Laosan grabbed the first milled rice, hurriedly grinded five or six catties out, put it into a rice bag, and stuffed the rice bag into Xu Chengjin's arms: "Take it!" You're welcome! ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Xu Chengjin has been in the countryside for two years, and it is the first time he has met such enthusiastic villagers.

No one is rich these days, and some grain is not hidden?

Even if he just pulled him to save him from falling, a thank you is enough, and he can use the rice in return for this year's new grain? And it's a few pounds for one.

Xu Laosan is mainly in a good mood today:

The girl was elected as a model worker in the brigade, and in a few days she will go to the commune to participate in the model worker commendation meeting; The grain distributed by his own family was also squeezed into the first echelon of the brigade, which was very face-saving.

It's all a happy thing.

In addition, it was really dangerous just now, if there was no young man to pull him, he would definitely fall, and the basket containing the grain was also designated to be overturned, even if not a grain fell and all of it was picked up, it would take a lot of work, could it still catch up with the first rice mill? Definitely not! Maybe it's still at the end of the line, and then I won't be able to catch my daughter to make dinner.

Yes, he sent the other party a few catties of rice to express his gratitude, and Xu Laosan did not hesitate.

"Take it, take it! It's getting late, so let's go back! ”

He waved his hand and continued to mill rice.

The only rice bag was given to the young man, but fortunately, there were good villagers in the crowd in the queue behind, and he also smoked the cigarettes he sent when distributing the grain, so he borrowed a rice bag to use it, and sent it back when he got home.

At that time, Xu Yin went to her own land to cut vegetables, and Aunt Chunhua, who passed by, said that her father almost fell, and she was not at ease, so she trotted to the brigade headquarters.

"Dad, are you alright?"

"What can I do? It's not good! Why are you here? ”

"I heard Aunt Chunhua say that you almost fell, I'm worried about you, come and have a look."

When they came, Xu Yin was not busy going home, and took over from Xu Laosan to push up the stone grinder.

"I'll push it, you can rest for a while, which foot is broken? Are you really okay? ”

"It's okay, it's okay!" Xu Laosan jumped twice to show her, "Look, there's nothing wrong at all." ”

Xu Yin was relieved.

The people around praised him: "The third child, your daughter is so filial!" ”

"Both capable and filial, I don't know which young man will be cheaper in the future."

"The third child is a good blessing!"

"That's that!" Xu Laosan laughed so much that the crow's feet came out.

Outside the brigade headquarters, Xu Chengjin, who had not gone far, looked back at Xu Yin, who was pushing stones in the crowd.

The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on her tranquil face, making her fancy face more and more bright.

He retracted his gaze and smiled inwardly: What do you think!

The word "quiet years" is destined to have nothing to do with him, a man who walks in the dark.

Heavy on the hands.

He looked down at the rice bag he was holding in his left hand, and the coldness in his eyes disappeared a lot.

The world did not seem to be all darkness to him.
