In the middle of the night, the moon is dark and the wind is high.

Wang Shumei stood in the ditch and explained to Qian Guozhu and Sun Mancang for more than ten minutes, which made her two brothers believe that there was no black market brother in Lan County who had held their sister hostage.

"Then I'll go up the hill and take a look, and if there is, you wait to pick up the goods." Sun Mancang took the initiative to stand up.

Wang Shumei was a little worried: "Brother Cangzi, I'll go up with you, the mountain road is dark." ”

"No, you two can talk for a while."

Sun Mancang is still very measured, in the middle of the night, he is not Wang Shumei's brother, and it is not good to get together together.

Qian Guozhu was also a little worried about Sun Mancang, afraid that he would go up the mountain and have an accident, but he was even more worried about Wang Shumei herself in this wilderness.

So he said, "Be careful on the road, don't be afraid of slowness, don't let anyone have an accident." ”

"Hehe, don't worry, brother, I drilled in the mountains when I was a child, you know what I'm capable of."

Sun Mancang replied and plunged into the forest.

When his figure disappeared, Qian Guozhu silently put the red dates into the carriage, moved other things to cover up, and moved out of the empty place by the way, preparing to welcome the arrival of apples.

Wang Shumei stood at the back of the car, looking up at him busy.

Qian Guozhu was a little angry, he felt that Wang Shumei was too risky to cooperate with a young man who had only known him for a month.

But he also understands that Wang Shumei is doing this so that they can all earn more.

Qian Guozhu is the eldest nephew of Wang Shumei's mother, his mother went early, and after his mother entered the door, he was taken home by his aunt.

Later, it was the job of the truck driver that the aunt bought for him.

Later, the aunt was gone, and another stepmother entered the door.

At that time, Qian Guozhu looked at the three dolls left by his aunt, an eighteen-year-old boy, and silently shouldered the responsibility of taking care of them.

In the first two years, it was Qian Guozhu who supported them, and later, when Wang Shumei grew up, she carried it with him.

The mother has passed away, and the eldest sister is the mother.

Wang Shumei doesn't remember how much suffering she has endured and how many grievances she has swallowed over the years, she only knows that her younger brothers and sisters can no longer bear the hardships and sins she has suffered.

Qian Guozhu put down a wooden box and suddenly sighed: "Before I came out this time, I took Damin and Xiaoxiao to the house, and let your sister-in-law take care of them, you ...... Don't worry. ”

Wang Shumei smiled, she leaned on the car door, looked at Qian Guozhu and said, "Brother, don't be angry with me, I thought about it...... After a while, I will send Damin to be a soldier, and when Xiaoxiao finishes high school, I will bring her to me. ”

"The captain of our brigade is very good, when the time comes, I will discuss with him, divide a piece of land in the team, set up two rooms, and I will take Xiaoxiao to live and not go back."

"My sister-in-law is pregnant, you can save more money, have a few more babies in the future, and the children will also have a foil."

Wang Shumei rarely speaks from her heart.

Life has turned this girl who has just turned eighteen years old and two months into an old fritter.

Someone else's eighteen-year-old can complain about the hardships of the countryside and the tiredness of work, but she has long been used to these, and even ......

She felt that this month in the Ten Mile Brigade was the easiest day she had in recent years.

There is no need to fight wits with her stepmother, and there is no mess to bother her.

Do farm work, gossip, make fun of Wen Lan, and pinch Lin Nianhe's soft little face......

Life went by very loosely.

Qian Guozhu listened to Wang Shumei babbling about her family's shortcomings, and occasionally she could hear her talk about the two new friends she had made at the Educated Youth Point.

His eyes were a little hot.

His eldest sister, since the aunt left, she has no friends.

When she was a child, she was busy pasting the foreign fire box after class, and the work at home was also hers.

She didn't have time to make friends.

Later, when she grew up, she went to the black market, and the shy little girl learned to see people and talk about people, and talk about ghosts.

In this way, she is wary of seeing people.

Qian Guozhu didn't expect that going to the countryside, which most people were afraid of, became an opportunity when he came to Wang Shumei.

The moon was rising, and suddenly, there was a rustle of branches in the woods.

Wang Shumei's eyes lit up instantly: "It's here!" ”

Before she could move, Qian Guozhu jumped into the ditch, raised his hand to block the tree, and caught the sack that slipped down the rope.

Lin Nianhe was afraid that this small mechanism would be seen, so he deliberately stepped on a ladder to hang it higher.

Fortunately, Qian Guozhu can climb the tree, so he went up the tree in three or two clicks and untied the sack.

He was carrying the sack, a little hesitant.

Do you just throw it down?

It's broken.

It's all money.

Wang Shumei had already run under the tree and stretched out her hand to him excitedly: "Quick, I'll continue!" ”

Qian Guozhu hesitated for a moment, held the tree trunk in one hand, leaned over and put the sack into Wang Shumei's arms.

A hundred pounds of sack, Wang Shumei's footsteps staggered, but she still held on to it and refused to let go.

Bags of apples fell down the hemp rope, and after Qian Guozhu took it, he bent down to give them to Wang Shumei, and Wang Shumei put them on the ground one by one.

Twenty bags.

Qian Guozhu will also help people load the truck when he drives the truck, and he is still very stable in his grasp of the weight.

He could conclude that each bag here was a hundred pounds, and perhaps a pound or two.

Qian Guozhu came down from the tree, wiped his sweat and said to Wang Shumei: "I'll get you 800 first, you tell that sister, and give her more money next time." ”

"Okay."

Wang Shumei did not hesitate, and directly agreed for Lin Nianhe.

After a pause, she added: "Brother, be careful, don't let people ask about the source of goods." ”

"I understand."

Qian Guozhu smiled, turned back to the car, took out a torn jacket from a broken bag, tore open a pocket, and counted, it was not enough.

He took the remaining two jackets apart one after another, and then he counted eight hundred and sixty dollars.

He returned to Wang Shumei's side, scratched his head, and was a little embarrassed: "Eldest sister, I didn't bring some money out, you take sixty first, and I ...... the rest."

"I'll take fifty, and you can give the rest to the people and the small." Wang Shumei gave him a big unity.

She knew what kind of character her cousin was, and it was estimated that these were all the money he and Sun Mancang brought out.

If she takes them all, it will be difficult for these two people to have a hot meal in a state-run restaurant until they sell the apples.

Qian Guozhu planned to get some pork in the provincial capital this time, otherwise he wouldn't have brought so much.

He grabbed the ten yuan in his hand and nodded seriously: "Nacheng, I'll give it to Damin and Xiaoxiao, these two children...... Forget it, I'll ask your sister-in-law to get them money once in half a month, don't let that woman search for it. ”

"Okay," Wang Shumei smiled and nodded, "I can rest assured that my sister-in-law will take care of me." ”

Qian Guozhu's daughter-in-law is a sincere person, when he married Qian Guozhu, almost all the money he earned was spent on his younger brothers and sisters, and he was poor and white, and he didn't even have a decent padded jacket.

That's it, the girl didn't complain a word, after entering the door, she took care of her life, and when she had nothing to do, she stayed at the gate of the big people and the small school, and the two children took them to their homes after school and cooked for them.

It is precisely because of them that my sister-in-law has not dared to have children for three years of marriage, and she has only recently become pregnant.

"Okay, you wait on the side, wait for the warehouse to come down, and I'll send you back to Zhiqingdian."

Qian Guozhu drove Wang Shumei aside and began to carry apples into the car.
