Chapter 4 The fourth brother who protects his sister
"Oops......"
Zhou Ran screamed miserably.
The loss is that the skin is rough and the flesh is thick, otherwise you will be miserable.
Seeing that Zhou Ran fell, Zhou Qingzhi got out of the car in a hurry.
He just thought that he would climb into the tractor first, and then reach out to pull Zhou Ran.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Ran climbed up by himself and fell down.
Zhou Qingzhi's face was full of distress and self-blame, and he knew that he should say hello to his little sister first.
At this time, there were still people sitting on the tractor.
In addition to the person in charge of each production team who is responsible for going to the county seat to pick up the educated youth, there are also people who go to the county seat to buy things by the way.
Several of the middle-aged women watched Zhou Ran fall, and immediately burst into laughter.
Seeing that someone was laughing at Zhou Ran, Zhou Qingzhi suddenly lowered his face and said coldly, "Do you think it's interesting to watch other people's jokes?" The secretary told us to unite and help each other, and didn't let you help others, but there is no need to fall into the well like this and watch other people's jokes, right?
Auntie, thanks to the fact that there is no other commune on the tractor today. Otherwise, if you see that the members are in difficulty, and you don't help and laugh at them, this is a sign of disunity. Others poke it up, affecting the annual selection and evaluation of our commune. ”
Zhou Qingzhi buttoned down such a big hat, and the women who were originally laughing at Zhou Ran were so frightened that they quickly shut up.
If this really affects the selection and evaluation of the commune, the secretary must not pull them out to criticize and educate.
Zhou Ran looked at Zhou Qingzhi with admiration, Brother Thursday was a warm man in front of her, but she didn't expect to be so powerful in raising people.
As an orphan, Zhou Qingzhi felt that it was really good to be protected by his brother.
She remembered that in the original book, because of this vicious female partner, the brothers of the Zhou family were also very miserable. She took the place of the original owner. must change the fate of the Zhou family's elder brothers.
After Zhou Qingzhi finished speaking, he quickly helped Zhou Ran up, and then asked nervously, "Little sister, how is it, is there anything wrong, is it hurting from the fall?" ”
Zhou Ran waved his hand and said, "No, fourth brother, it's okay, the fall is not heavy, it doesn't hurt." ”
Zhou Qingzhi was still not at ease, and was relieved to check that Zhou Ran was indeed not injured.
"It's okay."
said, saying that Zhou Qingzhi got on the tractor first, and with Zhou Qingzhi's help, Zhou Ran could be regarded as going up.
Because of Zhou Qingzhi's training just now, those aunts didn't dare to laugh at Zhou Ran openly, but their eyes could still see the ridicule of Zhou Ran.
Zhou Ran is even more determined to lose weight now, she is now like a pig with no numb legs, if she continues to be so fat, she doesn't dare to go out to meet people.
Waiting for the two to get into the car, the tractor set off "suddenly".
Zhou Ran took this kind of tractor for the first time, and he was a little upside down.
It is estimated that the original owner's body has adapted, but fortunately he did not vomit.
The tractor drove for an hour before it came to the county seat.
The tractor went straight to the educated youth office in the county.
However, this batch of educated youths who came over has not arrived for the time being, so they will wait here for a while.
Taking advantage of this effort, Zhou Qingzhi planned to take Zhou Ran to the supply and marketing cooperatives and non-staple food stores.
In the past, every time he came to the county seat, Zhou Ran's favorite thing was to go to the supply and marketing cooperatives and buy some delicious food by the way.
Zhou Ran found that the county seat in this era was also very backward, not even comparable to the town in the 21st century.
The road is a crossroads, and it is potholed.
Most of the county seats are also bungalows, and two-story buildings can occasionally be seen.
Facing the street are some storefronts, including supply and marketing cooperatives, non-staple food stores, grain stations, post offices, state-run restaurants, and the like.
The county seat is not large, and the non-staple food store and the supply and marketing cooperatives are not far apart.
Zhou Qingzhi first took Zhou Ran to the supply and marketing cooperative, intending to buy meat.
But it's a little late today, and I don't know if I can buy it.
Luckily, the grocery store still has meat available.
Zhou Qingzhi went over and looked at it and felt that the meat was not bad, it was pork belly, not pure lean meat.
Although you can't buy big fatty meat, it's good to be able to buy pork belly.
"Comrade, please weigh me a pound of pork." Zhou Qingzhi said, handing over eight cents and a pound of meat tickets.
Zhou Ran observed the prices of things in the grocery store on the side, and sighed that the prices were really low at this time.
Rice is one cent and three pounds, white flour is one cent and two pounds, coarse grains are only a few cents, and vegetables are cheaper, like white radish is two cents a pound, and Chinese cabbage is three cents a pound.
Eggs are more expensive, six cents a pound, eight cents for meat, and two cents for fish.
Although things are cheap, the wages of these days are also low, and generally speaking, the average worker in the city earns about 30 yuan a month.
Because of the shortage of supplies, everything needs to be supplied by ticket.
If you don't have a ticket, you can't buy anything even if you have money.
The staff took the money and tickets, and gave Zhou Qingzhi a pound of pork.
After buying meat, Zhou Qingzhi took Zhou Ran to the supply and marketing cooperative.
The supply and marketing cooperatives are not big, and the things placed in it are more miscellaneous, with a total of two waiters.
Seeing Zhou Ran and Zhou Qingzhi coming over, he asked a little lazily, "What do you want to buy?" ”
Zhou Qingzhi looked at Zhou Ran and asked, "Little sister, do you see if there is anything you want to buy, what you want." ”
"I'll take a look first."
The supply and marketing cooperatives are like a grocery store, with more daily necessities, and some snacks, tobacco and alcohol.
You also need money and tickets to buy things here.
After looking around, Zhou Ran found that there was no need, so he said to Zhou Qingzhi, "Fourth brother, I don't need anything, let's go back." ”
Zhou Qingzhi thought that Zhou Ran was reluctant to spend money, so he said, "Ranran, every time you came to the county seat before, you liked to buy peach crisp, why didn't you buy peach crisp today?"
My mother has already given money and tickets, let's come here once, and buy some peach cakes if we don't need anything. ”
As he spoke, Zhou Qingzhi said to the salesman in the store, "Comrade, bring me a pound of peach crisp." ”
The salesman took out a bag of peach cakes, weighing a total of one pound, and handed it to Zhou Qingzhi, "Five cents, and a pound of pastry tickets, and food stamps are fine." ”
Zhou Qingzhi quickly took out the money and tickets from his pocket, handed them to the salesperson, and then took the peach cake.
"Little sister, you take it and eat." Zhou Qingzhi handed the peach cake to Zhou Ran's hand and said.
Zhou Ran is not the original owner, and he is not too interested in peach cakes.
Especially a pound of peach crisp is really not cheap, five cents, you can almost buy a pound of eggs.
Speaking of which, the Zhou family is really willing to the original owner.
In this era, she was so poor, and all the money she saved was given to her to buy her delicious food.
The rest of the Zhou family was reluctant to eat or drink.
Zhou Ran is not the original owner, so he can't be so selfish.
Thinking so, Zhou Ran said, "Fourth brother, I don't like to eat peach cake now, don't buy it this time, return it." ”
As he spoke, Zhou Ran put the peach cake on the counter and said to the salesperson, "Comrade, please return it to me." ”
When the salesperson heard Zhou Ran say return the goods, his nose was not a nose and his face was not a face.
