Chapter 09 Establishment of the Bureau
Gu Mingtang went to the grocery store to buy a pack of orange petal candy and two catties of pork belly, and the eggs also cost tickets, she could only buy half a catty of eggs, and bought a few things that the brigade supply and marketing cooperatives did not have.
Subsequently, I went to the pharmacy and bought a few packets of lice medicine.
After putting them away, he returned home in Uncle Liu's carriage in the village, took out a pair of small black cotton leather shoes and the little red leather boots in the space, plus thermal underwear, four pairs of socks, and two down jackets, etc., all of which were put into the cabinet.
Gu Dong drank a big bowl of hot water, Gu Mingtang made himself egg noodles, which were the noodles that Lu Liangzhou brought back last night.
Wrapped in newspaper, it looks like it's about seven or eight pounds.
In other words, Lu Liangzhou's cooking skills are good.
The hot soup noodles she made last night tasted much better than what she made.
After eating, she boiled a large pot of hot water before she could seriously look at the house.
This home is too simple, it is really a glance to the end, there are two rooms, one for living and one for cooking.
There is no furniture, there are two red lacquered wooden cabinets on the north wall of the bedroom, a table of eight immortals on the west wall, a portrait of a great man on the wall, and a reed mat on the kang.
The walls and roof of the house were not only mottled, but also black, really dilapidated and old.
But now you can't flip the cover, what if after moving, her space runs away?
Thinking of this, she stood at the door, took advantage of being alone at home, entered the space, and began to take stock of the things in the space.
The space is more than 50 square meters, two meters high, and the shelves she collects are placed around, and there are a lot of boxes piled up in the middle, and there are all kinds of messes.
She took stock of the sanitary napkins, as if they could be bought in the market that day.
There were still a lot of compressed cotton and quilts stacked in the east corner.
There were other bedding, all of which were collected at a home textile store.
I didn't want to come in before, but now when I look at these things, it's all piles of tickets.
Gu Mingtang went out satisfied, entered the house and began to dismantle the bedding, and after finishing the quilt and pillowcase were soaked into a large wooden basin full of hot water, the cotton cover inside was actually fine, it could be used with a flick, but it was not sure that there was anything inside, so Gu Mingtang took the cotton cover outside, threw it in the snowdrift next to the house, and froze to death.
After that, it was a rubbing, she had a lot of strength, wrung out the sheets, and temporarily dried them outside.
When you turn around, you will freeze hard.
If you hit it, you can still hear the sound.
This morning, Gu Mingtang was wearing all his own clothes, and when he turned it over just now, there were not many of the originals, so they were wrapped in furoshiki and placed in the warehouse in the west.
Seeing that it was getting dark, she was ready to go to Li Xiaocui.
Li Xiaocui is the eldest daughter-in-law of the Wu family, a few years older than her.
At the beginning, she took Gu Mingtang to play a few times, and after tasting the sweetness, Gu Mingtang went to find Gu Qingshan, the eldest brother who also loves to play.
I thought I would win, but I didn't think that two people would lose more than 800 together.
Even Gu Qingshan has now made an IOU of more than 100 yuan.
The two of them together are exactly 300 yuan.
At the price of the age, this is a huge amount of money.
The Gu family is very poor, and she has no job, so the creditor Li Xiaocui dares to lend them two?
Is it because there is Lu Liangzhou behind the Gu family?
Also, Li Xiaocui is also a village woman, her mother-in-law's family is not rich, is she so rich?
Just thinking about it, Li Xiaocui probed his brain into the courtyard.
Gu Mingtang didn't let her enter the house, and without waiting for Li Xiaocui to speak, Gu Mingtang pulled her over and lowered his voice, "My family Lu Liangzhou is back, he hasn't found out about losing all his deposits, and he doesn't know that I borrowed money from you, I didn't say anything, my eldest brother, you can rest assured, I also lied about the grain and sold it to enter the city......"
"Wait!" Li Xiaocui stopped.
"What's wrong?"
Li Xiaocui looked at Gu Mingtang, if you want to talk about conduct, you can't find anything more annoying than her.
If you want to talk about her appearance, you can't find anyone better than her.
The eyebrows are like a crescent moon, the eyes are like autumn water, especially the skin color is rare in rural people, the skin is fair and delicate, the hair is thick and black, the typical goose egg face, there is no anger, and the beautiful Gu Mingtang who laughs makes people can't take their eyes off it.
Li Xiaocui felt that something was wrong, and she felt that today's Gu Mingtang made her eyes red with jealousy, especially the word "enter the city".
Thinking of the man's instructions, she hurriedly said, "You want to go into the city with Lu Liangzhou?" ”
"That's right, so, while Lu Liangzhou is not at home, I want to get the capital back, and I still have to pay back the money I owe you, but I don't have any money in my hand, if you can borrow me, let's play a big one tonight, I'll find my eldest brother too, I don't believe it, we can't play with those outsiders?"
I don't know if it's the plot or deliberate intelligence, anyway, no one knows that Li Xiaocui still lent so much money to the Gu family brothers and sisters.
Gu Mingtang's eyes showed an unwilling and greedy light, and he sighed, "Alas, I guess you don't have any money, so you can't go, right?" ”
"Yes, I'm looking for you today for this matter, you wait for my letter, and I'll find you after contacting you."
Thinking of the thing that never happened, Li Xiaocui was eager to try.
This time, it was guaranteed that Gu Mingtang would lose all of herself to those outsiders.
As for Gu Qingshan, he really can't take him this time.
So, she instructed, "But don't take your eldest brother this time, do you hear?" ”
"Why?"
"It's still a few old ladies playing this time, what are you going to do with him."
Gu Mingtang just hesitated for a moment, then urged, "You hurry up and get in touch." ”
Li Xiaocui suppressed her excitement, and when this thing was done, the man not only gave her 200 yuan, but also arranged for her to work as a worker in a textile factory in the city.
Gu Mingtang squinted his eyes, feeling that everything he did in the original body was a pit, and if he didn't deal with it, he would be exploded sooner or later, and it would be even more difficult to say at that time.
Come to think of it, it's quite annoying.
It's better to end up with the original cowardice and incompetence, look at it, how bold is this, just Lu Liangzhou has been on a business trip for a month, playing cards, setting fires, which is not illegal?
Gu Mingtang quietly walked out of the yard, the northern countryside is vast and sparsely populated, and the houses built are all independent courtyards, basically there are no small alleys, and it is not easy to track if you want to, especially when you walk in the snow.
However, she still saw that Li Xiaocui's direction was not the Wu family, but the educated youth.
Educated youth, the reborn heroine Han Yanan?
Originally, there were more than a dozen educated youths in the Zhiqing Point, but now some of them have returned to the city, and two of them have been admitted to university, one of them is Han Yanan, and the other has left, and Han Yanan is ready to go with Lu Liangzhou.
Now there seemed to be three people there.
Gu Mingtang followed from a distance, and Li Xiaocui never thought that she would be followed.
Therefore, when it was confirmed that Li Xiaocui had entered the educated youth point, Gu Mingtang went home.
waited patiently for an hour, and when it was dark, Li Xiaocui came.
