Chapter 2 Going out

It was noon, and the weather outside was a little cold, and it felt like the wind was getting smaller.

According to the little girl's memory, Wen Tong knew that it was the early 1970s and it was still time to stay in a vain. It was also very good.

Wen Tong himself is not a singular personality. It is best to be able to drink spicy foods behind the back of others. He likes to make a fortune secretly.

Wentong is now a bit similar to the Northeast in his previous life. It is now slack farming, and it is very cold in winter now, and there is no greenhouse effect. It is common for heavy snow to pass through your knees.

So now I’m not busy, so Wen Tong can take a break and adapt. This body has to take care of my grandmother in the past six months and treat her. The previous savings have basically been exhausted. The little girl is also very thin, just taking advantage of the winter to take care of her, otherwise she will not be able to do work in the beginning of spring next year!

Wen Tong considered the little girl's wealth and only found 90 cents. It's so poor! Fortunately, there is a pension of 17.5 in the beginning of next month, which is very good for most families now.

Nowadays, farmers have worked for a year and can’t even eat enough. How many dollars can be saved in a year is a matter of management.

Wen Tong is worried about safety issues now. After all, he has a sum of money every month and a house. This is a perfect golden lump! Whoever married Wen Tong, in this village, has reached the peak of his life.

Wen Tong remembers that the overall style of Xiahegou Brigade was simple. The captain and Wen Tong's father were brothers who grew up wearing open crotch pants together. Moreover, Wen Tong's father saved the captain's life, and the captain still protected Wen Tong very much. It seems that he can live a peaceful life for a while.

However, you cannot point to others to live, so physical exercise must be put on the agenda. Wen Tong was alone in his previous life and felt extremely weak in security, so he learned Sanda and boxing after he became older. As he studied longer and became more and more powerful, Wen Tong felt extremely safe.

So recently, I have to eat well, sleep well, and exercise well. After thinking about my ideas, Wentong found the original owner's cotton jacket to put on.

It’s a decent thing to have a cotton jacket at this time. Some families only have one cotton jacket, and they wear it when they go out. Others are at home and don’t move very much. After all, they are moved a lot and they are hungry!

The original owner's cotton jacket was made by the original owner's grandmother who saw that the original owner was going to school. The inside was blue local cloth and the outside was pink cotton cloth with small florals, which was rare and tight.

After putting on a cotton jacket, Wen Tong took a basket in the yard, carried it to his back, and went out with the key.

As soon as I opened the door, I heard a sound coming from behind.

"Yeah, girl Wen is going up the mountain?"

Wen Tong looked up and saw that it was the famous aunt in the village, Wang Chunhua.

Wang Chunhua is also a strange creature, she likes to stare at other people's homes. She wants to know what happens to anyone. In modern times, she is the perfect king of paparazzi.

If she has any bad intentions, she just likes to inquire and spreads gossip. If she knows something, it would be equivalent to the whole village knowing it!

Wen Tong knew that you need to be careful when dealing with such people and don’t leave any talk.

"Hello, Aunt Wang, I'll pick up some firewood when I go out," Wen Tong replied with his lips pursed. A shy little girl played the role vividly, and while speaking, she turned around and locked the door.

"Oh! I don't have firewood? I said why didn't the chimney come out of your house these two days..." Wang Chunhua said loudly.

"Well, Aunt Wang, I'll go to the mountain to pick up firewood first. I'll have to go home to burn the house later." Wen Tong rolled his eyes in his heart, but said embarrassedly on his face.

"Ah... Then go quickly!" Wang Chunhua looked at Wen Tong's back and said, "I'm sorry..." She turned around and walked in the opposite direction.

All the gossips in this winter are a bit cold.

On the other side, Wen Tong muttered, "Even my chimney can gossip, this is a god... I really gave birth to the wrong era!"

Wentong's home is not far from the mountain. Xiahegou Village is located in the lower reaches of the Dan River. The water quality of Dan River is clear and the water volume is very large, and it irrigates a large area of ​​farmland. Of course, when it flows into the village, it is about seven or eight meters wide. It takes about 300 meters west from Wentong's home, crosses the bridge on the Dan River, and reaches the foot of Dan Mountain.

Danshan is indeed very large and lush. Villagers usually pick firewood and pick some wild vegetables on the outside, and they dare not go if they are too deep.

Wen Tong came to the foot of the mountain and climbed up for a while, but he didn't meet anyone. Most people's firewood was ready.

After walking for a while, Wentong saw that there were quite a lot of dead branches here, so he started to pick up firewood. After picking it up for about an hour, Wentong really couldn't pick it up, and was also afraid that he could not hold it. He picked up about two small bundles and put it into the bamboo basket. Wentong took a few steps back and almost turned out to be a shit! Wentong put the bamboo basket upwards, bent down and walked down the mountain step by step.

Not long after crossing the bridge, I saw a woman standing at the door of my house, wearing a yellow headscarf and a basket on her arm.

Wen Tong saw that he was the wife of the captain Lu Aiguo and Aunt Ma Sulan.

At this time, the woman also saw Wen Tong. "Girl Tong, I'm going to pick up firewood... Why are you not at home?"

While talking, he stepped forward and helped Wentong take off the basket and lifted it to the door.

"Thank you, aunt," Wen Tong said gasping.

"What are you thanking? Open the door quickly. Auntie has brought you a bowl of dumpling soup. It's made of white flour. Open the door quickly. It will be cold for a while."

Wen Tong wanted to refuse, after all, white faces were too precious in this era. But Ma Sulan kept pulling her, Wen Tong opened the door first and then talked about it when she entered the room. "Aunt, you are advanced first."

Ma Sulan helped Wentong put firewood into the firewood shed. When she saw a few loose firewood in the firewood shed, she immediately shouted, "You stinky girl! Don't you say anything without firewood?"

Then he entered the house and said, "How do you stay in this room? It's like an ice cellar."

Then Ma Sulan was ready to hold firewood to burn the kang. Wen Tong quickly grabbed Ma Sulan's arm when he saw it.

"Aunt, I know, I'm going to pick up firewood by myself? You can sit and rest for a while."

Wentong took a small stool in the kitchen for Ma Chunlan to sit on. He hugged firewood and attracted firewood and attracted fire. Wentong had been cooking by himself at about ten years old. At that time, the town also burned firewood and coal, so Wentong was not unfamiliar with it. Then the two of them sat in front of the stove and talked.

"You stinky girl, you just don't like asking for help. Why are you polite with your aunt? What kind of friendship is your dad and your uncle? And your grandmother paid for my grandson to treat her. Why are you polite?" Ma Chunlan said angrily.

When my grandson was 3 years old, he had a high fever, but it was difficult at that time! I really had no money, so I wanted to make a living. In the end, it was Wentong's grandmother who paid the money to go to the hospital. The doctor said that it would be impossible to come to the child a little later. This is a great blessing!

"Aunt, I'm not polite. I'll do whatever I can. If I have something to do, how can I not go to you?" Ma Chunlan immediately became calm with intimacy in her tone.

Wen Tong said and filled the firewood. At this time, the water boiled. Wen Tong scooped a bowl of water for Ma Chunlan. The rest were poured into the thermos and kept for use at night.

"Auntie, drink water and warm your hands as you like." Wen Tong handed the water to Ma Chunlan.

"You girl, you are stupid in your studies and are all polite." Ma Chunlan took the water and took a sip. In winter, the water was poured into the bowl and it became colder a few degrees instantly, but it could be imported when it was sucked.

Wen Tong smiled and said nothing. The original owner was studying early, and he jumped to another level in the middle. He graduated from junior high school at the age of 14. He was about to go to high school, but his grandmother fell ill and died and held a funeral. Later, he didn't go to school and took a leave of absence. Wen Tong thought that he had to put the school on the agenda and try to get a college diploma in the future.

"Okay, my girl frees up the bowl for me. I have to go back and work! It's a whole family."

Ma Chunlan's family has two children and one daughter. The eldest son Lu Changkong got married early and married Li Dani in the next village. He has a son and a daughter. The eldest grandson Lu Chunsheng is 7 years old and the youngest daughter Lu Chuntao is 5 years old. The second son Lu Changming is 22 years old. He is unmarried and works in the transportation team and is not at home all year round. It is estimated that he brought back the white noodles today. The youngest daughter Lu Changhong is 16 years old and is in the first year of high school in the county.

"It's getting dark, hurry up!" Ma Chunlan pushed Wen Tong's arm and said.

It’s dark early in winter now, and the villagers only have two meals a day and have to eat at three or four in the afternoon.

Wentong has been educated for a long time, and it is hard to refuse now. Besides, they have sent it to you home.

So Wentong quickly liberated the bowl, washed it, and put it into the basket for Ma Chunlan.

Ma Chunlan was also a cheerful person. She took the basket and immediately stood up and walked out.

Ma Chunlan waved her hand and said, "Don't send it away, just a few steps away, let's go back."

Wen Tong saw Ma Chunlan away and returned to the house. Sitting on the kang, he thought that he would give some things to his aunt's house in the future. He had no peace of mind to accept it.

What's more, Captain Lu Aiguo took good care of Wen Tong!

Wentong has nothing good now, so he can only wait until the money is in place and sell the food.

Wen Tong ate a bun in the evening, which was accompanied by two bowls of dumpling soup. Then he poured water to wash his face, feet, and brushed his teeth to go to bed.

I have to say that the original owner's grandmother is a caring child. The original owner has two iron porcelain basins, one red and the other blue, and a well-equipped toothbrush. This is simply the treatment of the little princess! Wen Tong thought happily that this saved me a lot of trouble, otherwise he would have to save money to buy these daily necessities.
