Chapter 73 Fubao's Stone 1(1/3)
Autumn is the harvest season. The sorghum in the sorghum field is cut and bundles are stacked there. The women cut the sorghum ears. The sorghum stems are dry and it is of other use. The sorghum ears begin to thresh. The sorghum rice that is stripped is the most common grain for rural people.
After picking the white cotton, it piled up into a cotton mountain. The balls of cotton wool looked like clouds, making some children unable to help but want to pounce on them and roll, but this was obviously severely stopped. Wang Baiou specially sent a member to stare at the cotton. The children could not get close to them, so as not to get rid of some cotton wool.
The cotton collected in the commune must be handed over to the cotton station to deduct this year's public grain. Chen Youfu asked Wang Baiou to calculate the harvest this year. The harvest this year is very good, and the public grain indicators have been completed, and there is still some surplus, which means that some cotton can be distributed to each household to make new quilts and clothes.
Chen Youfu looked at the account book, raised his feet with satisfaction, and said comfortably: "This year, our Pingxi Production Brigade has achieved a beautiful victory in the autumn harvest. We must be the model advanced production brigade this year, and the members can also eat and wear warmth."
No matter whether you eat stick noodles or sorghum noodles or sweet potato noodles, you will definitely be able to eat enough anyway and don’t have to go hungry.
Thinking that the members didn't have to go hungry, Chen Youfu sighed with satisfaction, and he felt that he was the captain of the team.
If someone is hungry, the adult cryes and says that the child is so hungry, his heart is really uncomfortable at that time. He wants to starve.
Now, there is a great harvest. Think about how well the Pingxi Production Brigade is doing this year!
Especially when I went to the commune for a meeting a few days ago, I heard that the harvest of the Taitou Production Brigade next door was not good. I remembered the dejected face of the captain of the Taitou Production Brigade, and he became even more proud.
When he was thinking this, he suddenly remembered what he was worried about a year ago. What was he worried about at that time?
Worry about blessing treasure.
This kid Fubao...
He tapped the table with his fingers, frowned and thoughtful.
This time he went to the commune for a meeting. Secretary Li was about to be promoted and went to the district. At that time, he asked Fubao specifically and said that he must place the child well so that the child can live a good life.
Fubao is such a lucky child. Since she beat her to the Gu family, the Gu family's life is really moist.
Suddenly, his heart beat.
Why did I suddenly have a strange idea?
The child Fubao is prosperous, and it may not only be prosperous for the Gu family, but also the Pingxi Production Brigade is prosperous together?
But... why didn't Fubao go to Gu's family and she be promoted by Pingxi Production Brigade?
Is it because the Nie family treats her badly?
Chen Youfu remembered that when Fubao went to the Nie family, the third wife of Nie was pregnant with twins.
He frowned and pondered hard, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was.
But thinking about it in the end, he became fascinated and slapped the table: "Forget it, don't think about it anymore. This is all a matter of nothing. It may be feudal superstition. It happened to be a coincidence!"
...
Gu Weidong didn't think about those who were there. In the words of his brother Gu Weimin, he now wanted to collect cotton and go to the city to sell cotton wool. Anyway, Chen Youfu didn't say he wouldn't let him do it, but just let him do it in private, so he just did it.
When each family divided the cotton and the cotton from each family's private areas took off the seeds, he began to collect it.
Of course, this kind of thing cannot be done with great fanfare, and he has to do it quietly in private. He began to look for those who greeted him one by one, the first one was Chen Youliang.
When Chen Youliang heard this, he stammered: "That, that... I have some cotton, but now it's gone... I, I use it."
Used?
Gu Weidong was puzzled and expressed his doubts about Chen Youliang, but he didn't say anything, so he continued to find the next one.
Who knows one, two, three or four, and they all say so.
Gu Weidong completely didn't understand: "I had a good statement, why did I change my mind?"
He was puzzled and told Miao Xiuju about this after he went back. Miao Xiuju snorted coldly: "There must be a ghost here. It's not sure why it's because of something. Don't worry, go to someone else's house first, I'll go and ask."
Of course, I have to ask the old lady about the news. Who has lost all her teeth and is talking on the well platform with a crutch? Miao Xiuju went and found out in a few seconds.
After finding out, she was very angry.
This is a business where someone sang a show against her son and robbed her son!
The Nie Lao San family actually wanted to do such a thing too?
?
Miao Xiuju returned with anger and told Gu Weidong about this.
Gu Weidong was stunned at the time: "He, his family wants to do it?"
Where does the capital come from?”
His mother-in-law gave him a golden ring, but Fubao picked up an old Yuantou to replace him!
Where did the third family of Nie get their capital when they are poor?
Miao Xiuju thought about this and felt something was wrong. Gu Weidong gritted his teeth: "Mom, I have to figure it out. If I go over and ask, I don't understand. I originally planned to do this. I did it well, so why was it intercepted?
Why is he, Lao San?”
So on this day, Gu Weidong ran to the commune store with his heart and cruelly took the money and grain coupons to exchange for half a pound of Laobai Gan. He took the half a pound of Laobai Gan and went to find Chen Youliang.
Where is the wine? Is this wine or is it old dry!
Chen Youliang looked at him so straight. Even if the countrymen have a wedding and white wedding, they will not be fine.
Gu Weidong put the wine on the table and the two brothers started drinking.
Chen Youliang was so happy that he drank, his face turned red, and he slapped the table: "Brother, if you have anything to do, you can talk!"
Gu Weidong took a sip of wine, his eyes turned red, and he said sadly: "Why is it so difficult to live a good life for his child!"
Chen Youliang was stunned.
He is poor, he has no wife, he is a bachelor, but he is not stupid, he understands Gu Weidong's thoughts.
After a moment of stammering, he sighed, "There's no way, we have some cotton in our hands, and we haven't thought about using cotton to exchange for money. We just exchange food for food or something. Nowadays, no one's family is rich, so where can we get the money to buy cotton? You said brother, right?"
Gu Weidong felt aroused and suddenly understood: "Are you afraid I can't afford the money?"
Chen Youliang was embarrassed and scratched his head: "You said that your mother-in-law helped you out, but I didn't see anything, and I was always uneasy."
No one has done this before, he doesn't understand it, and he doesn't feel at ease if he doesn't see things.
Gu Weidong was puzzled: "Where is the third son of Nie? His family is so poor that his family will have money for you?"
Chen Youliang laughed: "Second, you don't know. There is a treasure that is a piece of jade. I heard it was passed down by my ancestors and it's worth the money of my old nose!"
Jade?
Gu Weidong suddenly realized something.
The third family of Nie has counted three generations of poor peasants. How could the ancestors pass on things? He would have been proud of it if there was something. Therefore, the jade could not have been passed down by the Nie family, but should be-
Gu Weidong narrowed his eyes. He remembered that the nun Huiru, who returned to secular that day, said that Fubao had a piece of jade, which was greedy for the third family of Nie.
At that time, Huiru said that he would bring Huixin to find the third family of Nie. He also found Chen Youfu with Xiao Dingkun, but Huiru had not been moved there.
Originally, he thought that when Hui Tathagata came, he would go and look for it together. Now it seems that he would have to urge Hui Ru to come.
If the jade can be brought back then, the Nie Lao San family will not think about doing this business!
After thinking about this, Gu Weidong first asked his mother to find Mr. Nie, and then, carrying a few steamed buns and a bottle of boiled water, he rushed directly to the Huangzhuang Production Brigade where Huiru was located, which was dozens of miles away from the Pingxi Production Brigade.
After Miao Xiuju found Mr. Nie, the wife of the eldest daughter-in-law was a little uncomfortable. After all, Miao Xiuju's family and Mr. Nie's family were not very harmonious and were making trouble all day long. Although Mr. Nie was not satisfied with Mr. Nie, they were all sisters-in-laws.
In this countryside, you have to rely on brothers. You can usually fight and scold your sister-in-law, but at critical moments, brothers must unite in front of outsiders.
Standing next to the chicken coop in the fence wall, Big Brother Nie was holding a dustpan to feed the chickens, and his wife rubbed her apron uncomfortably: "Oh, Auntie, are you looking for me, what's the matter?"
Miao Xiuju looked at the wife of the eldest daughter-in-law with a smile. You should know that the family of brothers must be in a group when facing outsiders, but there are conflicts within them. I was lucky to let their members learn from the previous part, and what internal conflicts are there or what?
Anyway, that's what it means. Miao Xiuju understands this truth in her heart and knows what the biggest internal contradiction between sisters-in-law is, that is, the division of family.
When you split up, I can pinch up even if you have one more pair of chopsticks, not to mention the jade passed down from ancestors.
Miao Xiuju began to sow discord with a smile: "Actually nothing, I just heard of one thing. I thought you were really at a disadvantage. If you don't tell you, I feel uncomfortable and feel sorry for you. After all, Mrs. Nie, you are usually good at dealing with people, but if you say it, I'm afraid something will happen..."
This really made the wife of Mr. Nie: "What the hell is it? Aunt, just tell me."
Miao Xiuju saw that there was no one outside, and then said mysteriously: "I tell you that the old man in your family seems to have left a piece of jade. I heard that it is worth the old man and the old man is worth the money. The thing was hiding by your third wife, and she is hiding it myself!"
Mr. Nie’s wife: “Ah?
There is such a thing!"
This is no small matter, she has never heard of it!
Miao Xiuju: "Not only I know, several people know it. Please ask, but don't say it was me."
Several of them know?
?
The wife of the eldest daughter-in-law immediately stopped having her chickens and stopped washing her bowls.
No, she has to ask, how could there be such a valuable thing? She is the eldest daughter-in-law and has no share in her position?
...
Miao Xiuju was naturally very happy when she saw this situation. In fact, Big Brother Nie’s wife is not bad, but who told her to be Nie Lao San’s sister-in-law? Of course she could pick it up and use it if she could use it.
Now that the task was completed successfully, Miao Xiuju returned home happily, and she even hummed an old tune: "My cousin is countless, and I don't come to the door if there is any major event. Although yes, although they are relatives and don't recognize each other, he is even more relatives than relatives~~~~"
When Fu Bao heard this, he was cleaning the pigpen with Gu Shengtian.
