Chapter 6: What a nice man
Huang Fenglai was born in the countryside of the old society, his father worked as a long-term worker in the city in his early years, and later married a maid from a large family.
Compared with ordinary women in the old days, she had heard her parents tell her a lot of secrets about the big family since she was a child, and her knowledge was very different.
She is the only midwife in the village and can earn her own money, so she has the confidence to speak.
Sons and daughters are the same, when the parents' bowl of water is level, children can be honored.
In other words, when the mother should catch what she should grab, she should let go.
"Mom, twenty isn't enoughβ" Poplar immediately protested.
Bai Liu didn't want to participate in the family meeting, and the hand under the table poked the little jelly bean's hand.
Jelly Bean immediately drank the last bite of bud batter: "Mom, I'm full, can I go out and play?" β
"Not today," Bai Liu patted his head, "you have to stay at home and help." β
Although she is not good at farm work, she is an excellent embroiderer.
Every winter, when everyone else is on the farm, she is the busiest. It's also the most profitable time.
The Bai family knows it.
Jelly Bean nodded helplessly, glaring at her with an expression of "I really can't help you".
Bai Liu raised her eyebrows, knowing that this was a little girl who wanted to talk about conditions.
She blinked, motioning to go back.
Jelly Bean obediently jumped off the bench: "Okay, Mom, let's hurry up." β
Bai Liu also stood up: "Mom, I'm leaving." β
Huang Fenglai waved his hand casually.
She pulled the jelly beans and ran away from the Bai family with lightning speed.
Family affairs can never be explained, and the old mother wants to rectify the family style, so it is better for her to run first.
However, as soon as she ran out of the door of her mother's house, Bai Liu immediately realized that she had run wrong and should go through the back door.
Hey, take another half a lap.
Bai Liu was about to make a detour, when he suddenly felt that the corner of his clothes was pulled by a pair of small hands.
As soon as she turned around, she saw Jelly Bean looking at her with her eyes open, and her little hand was shaking.
"Mom, I'm hungry."
Bai Liu instantly understood the meaning of the little slippery head.
The little one doesn't do anything good and doesn't want her to work without anything good.
Don't!
Bai Liu rubbed the head of the jelly bean angrily, thought for a while and said, "Let's go home and soak malt milk essence later, there were a few steamed buns yesterday." β
As for the big fish and big meat...... She's hungry too.
There is no way, there is a shortage of materials this year, there are a number of fine grains, and meat is rare to eat all year round.
In the past, Song Jiaying repaired agricultural machinery for the commune and often brought home some meat, but now this subsidy is gone.
"If only Daddy were home." Jelly Bean unconsciously came up with a sentence.
As soon as Bai Liu's movements paused, Jelly Bean suddenly thought that he shouldn't mention his father, and the mother and daughter were silent at the same time.
"Xiao Liu'er, I'm done eating." Aunt Wang saw two white and glowing figures from a distance, one large and one small.
This mother and daughter, white, too white.
Bai Liu responded with a smile.
"That's just right, you don't want to help the young people?" Aunt Wang chattered as she walked, "I heard that the fight started early in the morning, and the captain asked your uncle to come over and have a look......
Bai Liu instantly came to her senses, and she almost forgot that there was still a bomb in Zhiqing.
Thinking of the strange He Shengnan, she picked up the jelly beans without saying a word.
"Aunt Wang, I'll go with you!"
The three of them walked towards the Zhiqing Point, and more and more people were gathered along the way, and by the time they reached the Zhiqing Point, half of the villagers had gathered.
ββ¦β¦ You have to give an explanation, we educated youth are not the people? You are discriminating against the educated youth, I will go to the Educated Youth Office to report your Xiangyang Brigade! β
He Shengnan stood on the mound in the courtyard of the educated youth, raising his arms and shouting.
Bai Liu was tall, and he only saw He Zhiqing who was showing off his might when he crossed the head of the person in front of him.
Behind He Shengnan, there are also a number of educated youths such as Xiyue.
They did not express their dissatisfaction, but they made it clear that they wanted to make a profit.
The captain took a deep breath of dry smoke and spit out: "What do you want, we have never treated the educated youth badly." β
He Shengnan straightened his neck: "If you don't give the educated youth food to eat, you want to starve the educated youth to death." β
They can't bear this hat when it is buttoned down, regardless of whether the old peasants like it or not, but the young intellectuals are nominally supporting rural construction.
They make educated youths hungry, which can be called "ungrateful".
"What did He Zhiqing say, when are we going to starve Zhiqing to death?" The captain was so shocked that the cigarette stick fell to the ground.
Yang Guiying, the belated women's director, took a deep breath, and the problem of female intellectuals was that it was more convenient for her to communicate.
Yang Guiying insisted on pulling He Shengnan into the house, but He Shengnan did not follow.
"We went to the Xiangyang Brigade yesterday, and we didn't expect you to entertain us to eat and drink, but at least give us a full meal." He Shengnan's words changed, pointed to the old intellectual, Tao Lihua, and said, "She said that there is no food for the intellectuals, and we can't eat them, and you won't give it." β
"You're going to starve to death!"
After He Shengnan finished speaking, he played the role of a victim again.
Without waiting for anyone to speak, she continued: "We educated youths go to the countryside, we can't eat enough, and our houses are leaking everywhere......"
Bai Liu lowered his eyes silently, and the few families who bullied Jelly Beans yesterday were later arranged to come over to repair the house of the educated youth.
It seems that they didn't do their best either.
In other words, He Shengnan should have a reason to play by borrowing the topic.
"You are abusing educated youth, discriminating against policies, and antagonizing the countryβ"
Yang Guiying was a female soldier when she was young, and at this time, she heard He Shengnan talk more and more excessively, and directly covered her mouth.
There was a commotion among the educated youth, and several cadres of the brigade could not escape the blame.
The captain didn't know that there was such a wrongdoer among today's educated youth, and now his mind was full of trying to settle the conflict.
Accountant Wang's fingers moved, his mouth muttered, and after a moment, his brows twisted.
The people in the village can't get much food, and they won't be full if they let go of their belly to eat!
Besides, the new educated youth did not participate in the labor, so why should they share too much food?
The two were roasted on the fire, and Bai Liu quietly slipped to the captain's side.
"It is uncomfortable for educated young people to go to the countryside, after all, the living conditions of people in the city are good." She sighed, "They used to be young, and the elders in the family could eat enough if they took a few mouthfuls of food. β
"Now it's time to live on your own."
The captain glanced back at her: "Why didn't you say your mother would let you marry far away?" β
Bai Liu hippie smiled: "It's not, I still have a family." β
"But where can I find parents and brothers for educated youth!" The captain blew his beard and glared.
"Uncle, don't worry," Bai Liu took a deep breath, "I had contact with He Zhiqing yesterday, I'll go talk to her and explain her." β
"It's not easy for everyone."
When Bai Liu squeezed to He Shengnan's side, she was still crying, looking like "I can't live".
But in fact, there was not a single tear in his eyes!
It's all pretended!
"He Zhiqing, don't cry," she looked around the house casually, "This house is almost, Sister-in-law Liu and Brother Da Lai Zi repaired it yesterday, but the conditions in the countryside-"
"Sister-in-law Liu? Big Laizi? He Shengnan's pupils dilated.
Bai Liu's eyebrows moved slightly, and he nodded sincerely: "It's them, they repaired the house for a day, and the people of our brigade worked neatly." β
A trace of doubt flashed in He Shengnan's eyes, and then turned into joy.
Yang Guiying took the opportunity to say: "The people in our brigade are good, and they won't treat you badly." β
Bai Liu quietly retired.
The few people in the village who love to chew their tongues and cause trouble meet He Shengnan, who is a god, and the excitement in the future is indispensable!
Of course, she just diverted the internal contradictions and let He Zhiqing "influence" more broken mouths.
She's such a nice person!
