Full of excitement and a little regret, Du Changgeng followed He Yan on the car back to the county town.
Departing from the Peace Brigade early in the morning, we drove to the commune in the town. On the roadside, there was a man and a woman waving their hands for a ride. When he saw the woman wearing a floral cotton-padded jacket, Du Changgeng felt familiar.
"Brother, is this the cousin of Lu Dajun and my sister-in-law?"
He Yan was driving and saw two people waving hands on the side of the road, but he was not going to stop.
"Do you remember them all? It seems that this time I came to the Peace Brigade, some things impressed you deeply."
"They missed the bus to the county seat and seemed quite tired from walking."
He Yan laughed at Du Changgeng: "What, you mean to ask me to kindly give them a ride?"
"Brother, stop laughing at me!"
It was the first time that Du Changgeng encountered someone who was unscrupulous and blackmailing. If it weren't for He Yan and his aunt, he would have to shed a layer of skin even if he was entangled to death.
He urged He Yan: "Brother, step over and ignore them."
He Yan also had the same idea. The car slowly drove in front of Lu Dajun and Lu Chunya, and he stepped on the accelerator and passed them, preventing the two of them from stopping the car and eating a mouthful of ash.
Then, He Yan drove Du Changgeng Juechen away...
There was a bumper harvest of vegetables in the greenhouse two years ago. Brigade leader Li Zhiqiang and Party Secretary Qi were so happy that they couldn't open their mouths from ear to ear. There were still ten days before the Chinese New Year. The brigade headquarters bought two pigs from the Jinjin Brigade Pig Factory next door and slaughtered them to share the meat with the commune members and educated youths.
.
The pigs were slaughtered directly in the threshing floor of the brigade in front of the commune members and educated youth.
All the members who had no work to do came to watch.
The pharmacy will have a holiday in a few days, probably on the 25th of the Lunar New Year. Because Bai Su is busy with the work of the pharmacy, Bai Su hasn't had time to buy new year's goods.
As soon as she appeared at the threshing floor of the brigade, Li Zhiqiang, who had sharp eyes, saw her and hurriedly waved to him: "Sister, come this way, come this way. Which piece of meat do you like? I will ask the comrade who cuts the meat to share it with you later."
Based on the friendship between Li Zhiqiang and Bai Su, he can still make the decision to be accommodating. Even if Bai Su wants to pick the fat and thin part of her belly, he would rather his family suffer a little loss but still want to satisfy her.
Li Zhiqiang pointed to the best piece of meat from the pig, a boneless piece, and showed it to Bai Su.
Bai Su shook his head hurriedly: "Our family doesn't want pork, can you give me the pig intestines from two pigs?"
In fact, as soon as Bai Su came to the threshing floor of the brigade and Li Zhiqiang shouted hello, everyone looked in her direction.
Everyone wants a good piece of meat during the Chinese New Year.
Being petty, he was afraid that she would take away the good part, and he would not be used to Li Zhiqiang's plan to give her a small chance.
In particular, Miao Cuifeng and Mrs. Lu, who were not dealing with her, pointed at this little meat to celebrate the New Year and kept a close eye on Bai Su and Li Zhiqiang.
Bai Su refused to help Lu Dajun, and he also refused to help Lu Chunya introduce Du Changgeng as his partner. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law still held a grudge.
But now Bai Su is in a different realm from them.
The two of them could only stare at her, be jealous of her, covet her life, and couldn't make any trouble. Bai Su could only look down on the former mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who had suppressed her, and was too lazy to talk to them.
I thought Bai Su would choose a good piece of meat to go, but what I wanted was the smelly pig intestines.
Old Mrs. Lu was so proud that she leaned into Miao Cuifeng's ear and said, "I haven't become much smarter. I'm still a fool. What's so delicious about pig intestines? I can't chew them until they're chewed."
"She wants the pig intestines to be just right so that we can get good meat."
Miao Cuifeng nervously silenced Mrs. Lu.
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law thought they were smart, but Bai Su caught their little moves one by one.
Bai Su ignored them. Li Zhiqiang felt that Bai Su had suffered a loss, so Bai Su called him aside: "Just give the pig intestines. The last time He Yan came back, I asked him to tell Yuan Jianguo to get me half a pig for the New Year."
"Xiang Yang also knows Yuan Jianguo. Their family works in a slaughterhouse. If He Yan asks, he will definitely be able to get meat for me."
This year, the Peace Brigade, thanks to Bai Su, comrades and educated youths can taste meat during the Chinese New Year.
It can be said that in previous years, it was difficult to eat a meal of meat, and the most you could do was dip it into meat foam.
Half a pig, what a big deal?
This shocked Li Zhiqiang, and he asked Bai Su: "Sister, did I hear you correctly? Why do you want to buy so much pork?"
"I'm afraid half a pig is not enough to eat!"
Bai Su explained: "We have a large family, and the two children Lanhua and Zhou Changqing have been together for such a long time. I plan to arrange their marriage while her uncle and aunt come back for the New Year."
"My brother finally came back and I need to get some preserved meat for him and his sister-in-law to take to the island."
Bai Su told Li Zhiqiang: "Pig intestines are used to stuff sausages. The pig intestines from the slaughterhouse are sold to the food factory in the county. I'm afraid that I can't get the pig intestines, so I don't want the meat anymore, so I asked you to ask for it."
The intestines of two pigs.”
What is smoked sausage?
There are people in the Peace Brigade who smoke bacon during the Chinese New Year, but Li Zhiqiang has never heard of it.
Knowing that Bai Su wanted pig intestines to be stuffed with sausages and would not suffer any loss, Li Zhiqiang hurriedly nodded in agreement.
Bai Su was waiting for the pig intestines she longed for at the brigade's threshing floor, but she didn't know that while the commune members were watching the pig slaughter, a Dongfeng brand pickup truck drove people around the brigade's threshing floor and drove straight to the medicine farm.
The entrance of the square.
The small truck carried more than 20 people from Wu Huanhuan, all wearing red sleeves on their hands, and Xiongjiujiu looked arrogant and menacing. As soon as the truck stopped at the door of the medicine shop, they jumped out of the truck and rushed to the door.
The pharmacy was surrounded by people.
A group of people surrounded the pharmacy, raising their hands and shouting slogans: "We are the masters of the people, down with the running dogs of capitalism, down with the five black categories!"
The shouts shook the heavens and the earth, alarming the people working in the pharmacy.
Zhao Qingrou heard the commotion and came out with Hehua and the others. She saw that the leader was Director Hong of the Revolutionary Committee who had been here last time.
Knowing that the situation was not good, Zhao Qingrou had an idea and told He Hua: "Quickly leave through the back door and call your godmother."
He Hua was about to walk towards the back door when Hong Cheng limped and showed up at the door of the medicine shop with others, ordering the henchmen who were shouting slogans behind him.
"The front and back doors are blocked, no one can escape."
Hong Cheng waved his hand and ordered: "Come in and smash it!"
"Hey, don't smash it, don't smash it..."
The scene was chaotic for a while. When Hong Cheng gave an order, his thugs swarmed into the pharmacy and started smashing things.
Zhou Changqing rushed out of the workshop after hearing the commotion, holding a fire fork in his hand: "Director Hong, what do you mean?"
As early as the last time Hong Cheng came, Bai Su kept Zhou Changqing alert.
So Zhou Changqing heard Su Xiaoxiao's shout outside and knew that people from the Revolutionary Committee were coming. Zhou Changqing asked the people in the pharmacy workshop to stop working and walked to the door of the pharmacy with the tool in his hand.
The pharmacy is the basis for everyone's survival, and we rely on the pharmacy for wages every month.
Under the leadership of Zhou Changqing, everyone in the medicine shop was aggressive and unwilling to give in.
