Chapter 409: What's More Important Than Getting Married?
The black heads and plateau red faces in the crowd all looked at them, and the atmosphere was deadlocked, and no one dared to speak.
Li Hong and Wang Defa looked at each other, not knowing why.
They also heard some of the commotion just now, but the reason for the incident is still unclear.
Gu Sande didn't sell the lawsuit, he nodded directly at Wang Defa, pointed at Li Hongshun and said: "This is the son of Aunt Liu's second aunt in the team, saying that it is unfair for us to divide the fish, you brought the work book, just hold it here, and see how much work they have left in their family and how many fish they can share." ”
After that, Gu Sande glanced at Li Hongshun again, "Count it here, in front of the big guys." ”
Wang Defa glanced at Li Hongshun and comprehended.
After turning the page of the work book to Aunt Liu's house, he handed the work book to Li Hong and asked Li Hong to help hold it.
Untying the abacus from his waist, Wang Defa stretched his neck from time to time to look at the work book in Li Hong's hand, and the abacus in his hand "crackled".
However, after two breaths, Wang Defa raised his head: "Except for a few sick days in the middle, Liu Xiaoyan'er works for 345 days a year, and the official record gets 2415 points, and the rations are divided a few days ago, ten catties of fine grain rice, 150 catties of coarse grain sweet potatoes, and the remaining 85 cents, you can divide a two-catty fish." ”
Seven teams of work is worth one centimeter corresponds to 4 cents, 85 points is 3.4 cents, selling fish outside for two cents and five pounds, the fish on this side of the brigade belongs to the collective property, and the members of the club are discounted by dividing the fish according to their work, otherwise, with the remaining 85 points of work in Aunt Liu's house, you can't buy two catties of fish.
Li Hongshun's thin face turned crimson, "Then, what about me?" I also have a downhill! ”
He also went down to the ground several times, so he didn't get a job?
Li Hongshun suddenly became arrogant, as if he was holding the handle of Gu Sande and Wang Defa, and said angrily: "I just don't use it, you can't fool me like this, what is it that is not bullying?" If I don't make it clear today, I'll go to the commune and sue you!" ”
"Huh." Gu Sande sneered, ignored Li Hongshun, and waved his hand to beckon Wei Lan and another middle-aged woman to go over and draw lots together.
"Don't worry, I haven't finished yet?" Wang Defa glanced at Li Hongshun, and the smile on his face was very kind.
Li Hongshun's anger calmed down for a moment, he was ridiculed by everyone just now, he was upset, so he waited for Wang Defa's next words to help him slap everyone's face.
Wait, wait, Wang Defa finally opened his mouth, "Li Hongshun, in 1976, went to the field three times, the first time in March spring ploughing, let you weed, you shoveled the seedlings." Weeding in April, you shoveled the seedlings again. August made you carry dung, and you dropped the bucket. ”
The brigade uses human manure and livestock manure to fertilize the land, which is difficult to accumulate, so it is very precious.
Wei Lan couldn't help but think of the fact that he went to Li Jinyu and poured a scoop of dung, and was criticized by Gu Sande at that time, and he was punished for writing a review.
Li Hongshun dropped the bucket, which was basically a waste of a load of dung, it is estimated that ...... It's not as simple as writing a review.
Sure enough, Wang Defa took the work book in Li Hong's hand and closed it, and said: "Originally, your family could divide four catties of fish, but because of that load of dung, your wife was deducted 200 points." ”
Li Hongshun's face changed suddenly, and before he could speak, the smile on Wang Defa's face had faded, and he was so serious that he couldn't speak, "If you are not convinced, find your mother, talk about it well, and see if there is such a thing." ”
Li Hongshun dared to say more, he didn't know about the deduction of work points, but at that time, he deliberately did the shoveling of seedlings and dropping the dung bucket, so that he could not work in the field in the future.
At that time, the captain was really unhappy, but his mother solved it, and he didn't let him go out at all, and when he left the house, things had already turned the page.
But I thought that I would turn the page, but there is such a thing in private!
Li Hongshun's face turned blue and white for a while, and secretly scolded Second Aunt Liu's immortal thing, and he didn't say anything about it, causing him to lose such a big face.
Li Hongshun slipped out of the crowd, and no longer dared to shout about how Gu Chao could divide the fish.
Wei Lan was lucky, and drew a small fish lottery in one fell swoop, and the female comrades who drew lots together just wanted a big fish, and both of them got what they wanted, and they couldn't close their mouths with laughter.
Half a bundle of straw was prepared around the morning, and Gu Sande rubbed two straw ropes casually to help another female comrade string the fish so that they could be taken home.
Straw ropes were threaded through the gills and out of the fish's mouths, and two strings were soon tied and handed to the women comrades.
When helping Wei Lan to string fish, Gu Sande hunched his waist, and his voice was dull but reached everyone's ears:
"The fish sold in the commune shop outside is two cents and five pounds, and our team has our own shares, and the labor points are converted, and a pound of fish is sold for one cent and seven pounds, and the ...... Gu Chao on the team took money to buy fish for work, which was calculated according to two cents and five pounds. ”
Gu Sande lifted the fine fish, but did not hand it to Wei Lan, his eyes crossed the crowd, and said coldly: "While there is no fish now, you can count it yourself, whether you are willing to sell him this fish, if you don't, I don't have to give them the fish in my hand, as for the money, ......"
Gu Sande didn't go on.
If you don't give people fish, the money will be returned at that time.
The fish are all overweighed ten catties or ten catties, and two cents and five catties are calculated to be two pieces of five.
That's two yuan and five cents, so many fish, anyway, they can't divide it, and they have to discount it when they send it to the commune, sell it to Gu Chao, and later the brigade will share the money, and each family can get a few cents more.
"Sell!"
"That's it, why don't you sell it?"
Many people in the crowd were in a hurry to make a statement.
Some people felt embarrassed, so they quickly took a detour and said, "It's all a brigade, how can there be no fish on the New Year's table?" Captain, give the fish to Wei Zhiqing, it's cold...... Wei Zhiqing hurriedly took it and went home! Warm at home. ”
Gu Sande glanced at the eager gazes of the people around him again, sighed in his heart, and handed the fish to Wei Lan.
These people don't have big bad intentions, so they like to worry about trivial things, and in the final analysis, they are still a poor word.
Ten catties of fish is not light, one by one is tied together by a straw rope, and the moment Wei Lan took it, his little hand fell down by the heavy weight.
Hurriedly stretched out one hand, bent down slightly, and carried the fish together to prevent the fish from falling to the ground.
Wei Lan's hands trembled, and he smiled at Gu Sande with a little embarrassment, "Thank you, Captain." ”
"Thank you, Captain."
Gu Sande waved his hand: "Brother Chao'er earned it by himself, let's go home."
Wei Lan bowed and walked out, the tail of the fish in his hand swayed twice from time to time, and the force of the fall was heavier, and he almost couldn't hold it several times.
The people lining up in the surrounding area to divide the fish and watch the excitement all took two steps back to the side, made way of a small road, and watched Wei Lan fight with the fish and staggered out of the crowd.
Gu Chao was waiting outside the crowd early in the morning, and when he saw Wei Lan coming out, he couldn't help but take the fish from her hand and put it in the bucket.
There was water in the bucket, and half a bucket of water was filled, and as soon as the fish was put in, it was so full that the water overflowed.
"Go home!" Wei Lan pursed her lips, although she was a little embarrassed to be looked at by everyone just now, but now looking at the fish in the bucket, her heart became excited again.
"Hmm." Gu Chao nodded, pressed the fish with one hand, tilted the mouth of the barrel, and went everywhere to get some water, and then followed behind Wei Lan and walked home.
Wei Lan was full of interest, thinking about how to eat these fish, and heard a moan from the drainage ditch of the small port next to him.
She paused, took two steps to the shore, and craned her neck to look.
The water in the drainage ditch was thigh-deep, and Li Hongshun was pouring in it.
Wei Lan looked back at Gu Chao, "What did you do?" ”
"......" Gu Chao hesitated for a moment and nodded slowly, "It's easy to catch fire in winter, I'll help him lower the fire." ”
This is a clumsy excuse......
The belly is black enough to be.
Wei Lan hooked her lips, stepped back and returned to the main road, trotting back, "Hurry up and go home, I made something delicious." ”
On such a cold day, Gu Chao was still wearing wet clothes.
When he got home, Gu Chao put the bucket in the hall, took out the five big fish and arranged them neatly, and there were small fish and shrimp left in the bucket, and he carried them to the backyard.
Wei Lan followed behind, "What are you going to do?" Tell me I'll do it, you take a shower first. ”
In previous years, Gu Chao also dug lotus root behind the team, and Grandma Gu knew what kind of situation, and she boiled hot water early in the morning and prepared it.
Seeing Gu Chaowei Lan coming back, Grandma Gu had already taken a basin and started to draw hot water.
Gu Chao showed a soft smile, and his footsteps didn't stop, "These are still alive, fetch water and spit mud overnight, and make it for you to eat tomorrow." ”
His pants had already been soaked with muddy water, and every step he took, the cuffs of his pants would make a "pop" sound on his body.
Wei Lan wrinkled her eyebrows in worry, snatched the wooden barrel, the barrel was too heavy, and fell steadily to the ground with a "bang", splashing a little mud spots.
"Let's take a shower first!" Wei Lan huffed.
This person is really, he won't die after a while, he has to toss and get sick.
"Okay, I'll take a shower first." Gu Chao stretched out his hand to pinch Wei Lan's cheek, but when he thought that his hands were full of mud and fishy smell, he withdrew it halfway, "Put this here, I'll get it in a while." ”
Wei Lan chick pecked at the rice and nodded, and after Gu Chao entered the room to take a bath, she trotted to the kitchen, added some firewood to the stove, and boiled the ginger soup.
Thinking that Gu Chao hadn't eaten, he turned on the fire in the stove again, cut the sweet potato flour steamed in the morning into thin strips, and quickly stewed a bowl of hot and sour noodles.
Spicy food can dispel wind and cold, promote blood circulation, and increase body temperature.
Gu Chao took a hot bath, changed into clean clothes, and swayed his dirty clothes back and forth in the bathtub twice, and the basin of water turned into muddy water.
Gu Chao took a bucket to fill his dirty clothes, went out to pour water with a bathtub, and then entered the house, and was about to change the fish and shrimp in the bucket for clean water, but was stopped by Wei Lan halfway.
"Drink this, then go back to the house and sit down, and I'll get you some hot water, and soak your feet." Wei Lan's lips pursed slightly, her small chin raised slightly, and she couldn't refuse to hold a large bowl of ginger soup in front of Gu Chao.
obviously does things by herself, but there is always a queen posture who gives orders.
"Okay." Gu Chao smiled dotingly, took the bowl and drank the ginger soup in a big gulp, and saw Wei Lan looking up at him, his pale little face was full of determination and seriousness.
"You go and rest, I'll come by myself." Gu Chao showed her the bowl upside down, and his low voice was mixed with a hint of a hidden smile.
His voice is melodious, with indescribable pampering and tenderness.
Wei Lan's heart pounded twice, and the roots of her ears were hot.
But he was unwilling to lose, only staggered one step, and squinted at Gu Chao with a look of "don't want to bluff me", "Then I will watch you fetch water." ”
Half an hour later, Gu Chao sat on the bed, his big feet soaked white from mud soaked in the slightly hot water.
There was a sound of "da-da" footsteps outside the door, and he looked sideways, Wei Lan ran in small steps with a large sea bowl in his hand.
Wei Lan entered the house and put the sea bowl on the table, the air was filled with a sour and spicy taste, and after smelling it, Gu Chao couldn't help but secrete saliva in his mouth.
"What is it?"
"Hot and sour noodles!" Wei Lan was triumphant, and dragged the small table in front of Gu Chao before bringing the dishes and chopsticks over and putting them on the table, "Oh, let's eat." ”
Wei Lan was afraid that he would feel cold, so he trotted out again and specially carried the stove to this house.
The firewood burned vigorously, and from time to time there was a "click" sound of being burned and broken.
After finishing this, Wei Lan went back to the room and took a bag of things, and sat at the door to pick it up.
After drinking a bowl of ginger soup, and eating hot and sour noodles at this time, Gu Chao felt warm in his stomach, and his whole person warmed his Ali.
However, he felt that the temperature was just right, but Wei Lan felt a little hot.
Wei Lan was busy working back and forth just now, and a thin layer of sweat was already on his back, and this time he was sitting next to the stove, which was even hotter, so he simply took off the heavy cotton jacket on his body.
The bloated sheepskin jacket was taken off, revealing a white slim cashmere sweater, and the slender curves of the small waist were exposed.
The black silk-like black hair hangs obediently behind the ears, and the good looks are low and pleasing to the eyes, showing gentleness and softness.
A demure and ethereal beauty arises spontaneously.
It's very different from the little girl who is usually chirping and cheerful like a bird.
Gu Chao propped his hands on the edge of the bed, looking distracted.
Wei Lan didn't realize it, carrying the clothes in her arms, lowering her head and holding the box and churning seriously.
The rectangular wooden box contained all kinds of buttons, densely packed, all of which Wei Lan asked Gu Chao to buy at the supply and marketing cooperative, for a penny, and bought some of each.
Lenin and the tunic had already been tied in the afternoon, and the buttons were almost off.
Picking and choosing the right button, Wei Lan counted five out, buckled the box and put it aside, she compared the position of the button, and chattered about Fan Xiao and Lin Qing.
Because the wedding date was approaching, Fan Xiao did not participate in the lotus root digging activities, and went to the captain early in the morning to take leave in the past two days, and then took Lin Qing to the county.
Wei Lan guessed that they should be preparing for marriage.
Gu Chao's arm instantly stiffened for a moment, and he was silent before he spoke: "It may also be something else." ”
Wei Lan was stunned, raised her head and blinked her black peach blossom eyes and looked at Gu Chao blankly, "What else is going on?" Can it be more important than getting married? ”
The dark and bright peach blossom eyes were full of dazed innocence, and they were no worse than the newborn beasts.
His girl is too pure and beautiful.
Gu Chao suddenly felt a sense of guilt rise in his heart.
He rolled his Adam's apple, turned his head, and changed the subject by the way, "I should have thought too much." ”
Wei Lan didn't believe it, and when she lowered her head to sew the button, she was wondering what Gu Chao meant in her words.
