Chapter 463: Who do you look down on?
“Hey, hey! Sister Lan!”
Wei Lan left after saying this, but Youlan didn't hold her back.
*
When he arrived at the small square, the members of the brigade were gathered. Wei Lan stood on tiptoe and looked forward. Looking over the black heads, she could see four young men standing next to Gu Sande in the front, facing the crowd.
At this time, the four young men all had bruises on their noses and faces.
It can be seen how big the "war" formation was before coming.
His eyes continued to wander, but Gu Chao was nowhere to be seen. Wei Lan frowned, feeling a little worried unconsciously.
She was anxious when her arm was suddenly pulled by someone, and then a familiar voice came, "Nanny, I'm here."
Wei Lan suddenly turned his head and looked sideways at the tall and strong man, who was leaning against his head and looking at her with tender eyes.
Gu Chao was very powerful, but there were four people facing him. Wei Lan was always afraid that Gu Chao would suffer a loss without telling him, so he pulled Gu Chao and looked around a few times, "Did you fight with someone? What happened? Is there anything wrong with him?" Where was he beaten?"
Someone from the surrounding area cast inquiring glances. Gu Chao took Wei Lan's shoulders and turned her to face Xibao and the other four people. He calmly and softly comforted her, "I'm fine. Please listen carefully."
Listen carefully?
What to listen to?
A trace of confusion flashed through Wei Lan's heart. The next second, Gu Sande at the front struck his missing gong again, "Everyone is here, right?"
The members replied: "We are all here, we are all here!"
Gu Sande then got down to business.
Handed the gong to Li Jiandang next to him and sneered at everyone, "How many of them know what happened to them today?"
The crowd shook their heads, and Gu Sande snorted coldly. Without wasting any more words, he shook his hand and took out a stack of leaf cards from his pocket.
Fifty-four long strips of paper were flying in the air. Only when they fell inside did everyone see them clearly. Some of the timid ones immediately changed their expressions, "Yes, it's the Leaf Card!"
"Yes." Gu Sande laughed strangely, his face was too dark to be true, "During the holidays, you guys play two hands of leaf cards in private. Have I cared about you?"
"What time is it now? It has just been spring plowing, and there is no time for work in the fields. The people around are so busy that they are hitting the back of their heads with their heels, but these few!" Gu Sande pointed at Xibao and the others sternly, "How many of them are they?" A cat is playing leaf cards in a sunflower field!"
What kind of work is there in the sunflower field?
They were sent by the government. They did the same work, but they had to pay for their meals!
The mothers of those young men who participated in the Sunflower Field show off in front of other members. What are they talking about?
It's nothing more than: "Our government is a good family. Not only do we get work points, but we also give us food! Everyone in our family has been working for half a month, and they have gained two ounces of meat on their waists!"
Those who have no chance to participate can only be jealous after hearing this.
Now that they heard that Xibao and the others did not cherish the opportunity to work, everyone was extremely angry, and their usual prejudice against them was magnified several times:
“Which blind person recommended these people to participate in the melon seed project?”
“Chunmei, you are mistaken, it is not the melon seed project, but the sunflower seed project!”
"Hey, that's enough!" A female comrade named Chunmei waved her hands irritably. She crowded together angrily with a round face, pointed at Xibao and the others with trembling fingers, and asked: "Captain, how can such a thing be included in the project? Why can't our little guy go?"
Aunt Chunmei’s words immediately caused the crowd to explode:
"Yes, yes! Why! Our children are also hard-working!"
Originally, they were just angry that Xibao and the others did not appreciate such a good job. Now everyone suddenly woke up. Xibao and the others were openly caught in the act. They must not be able to stay in the construction site. Wouldn't that free up their positions?
“Captain! Let’s see if our three pillars work!”
“Yes! And our second flower!”
"Pfft." There was an aunt who didn't have a son in her family. She hurriedly reported the name of the eldest girl in the family. An acquaintance heard this and couldn't help but laugh out loud. "Aunt Saturday, your second flower is a girl. She has faced so many people." The boy and the baby haven’t been found yet, so what’s the matter with your girl?”
“That’s right! Besides, there are more than 20 male children going to the fields together, and you have a female child, what’s the point of messing around?”
“What’s wrong with girls? The great chairman also said that women can hold up half the sky! We girls can also hold up part of the sky! Do you know!”
The topic suddenly took a turn, and a new round of war of words broke out among the crowd.
Gu Sande's face turned even darker. He grabbed the gong from Li Jiandang's hand and hit it with "Duangduangduang" several times. The curses in the crowd suddenly died down.
"Have you had enough scolding? Do you need to remove the big lama from the pole to scold you?"
People who were so fierce just now are like quails beaten by the rain. Don't say anything, they don't even dare to let go of a fart.
“Look at your virtue!” Gu Sande stood on the stone roller, stretching his fingers, feeling angry and helpless.
In the end, Gu Sande glanced at Xibao and the others indifferently, and gave the final order, "From today on, these few people are not part of the Kuaizi project. Four vacancies will be made in the field first. I will look for them later." If you are successful in selecting candidates, you can also recommend your own children to sign up."
As soon as Gu Sande said this, Xibao and the others, who had been beaten with bruises and swollen faces, finally panicked. They all wanted to rush to beg Gu Sande, but were stopped by Gu Sande's eyes.
Several people stood there and did not dare to move, but they all cried and begged: "Captain! We know we were wrong and we will never dare to do it again. Please forgive us this time, this time! Captain, we must change our ways. I won’t dare to do it again!”
When everyone was scolding, Xibao and the others acted like dead pigs who are not afraid of being scalded by boiling water. They would not die even if they cursed a few words.
But things are different now. Now we have to lose the opportunity to work in the sunflower seed fields!
Can the collective farm work of the brigade be the same as the public work?
The commune members are right. Working in the sunflower seed fields earns you high wages, and you also have to take care of the food.
Not only did it save rations for the family, the food in the big cafeteria was all cooked by female educated youths, and the same food tasted like flowers...
If this thing is really dirty, will I be beaten to death by my mother when I go back?
As he begged, Xibao looked back at the crowd, and sure enough, he saw his livid-faced father right in front of the crowd, less than two meters away from him.
Xibao’s heart was pounding, and he cried and begged even harder.
"You know how to ask me now? What's the use? Why don't you ask these people in front of you if they agree?" Gu Sande glanced at Xibao and pointed at the members in front of him.
The work in the sunflower seed field is assigned by the government. If someone from above discovers this, will the result of Xibao and the others be like this?
Gu Sande sighed, "Let's establish a good image as a diligent person from now on."
Gu Sande’s implication: From now on, if you work diligently, just be a human being.
He has made it clear that this matter is irreversible.
The result was finalized, and Gu Sande waved his hand to dismiss the crowd.
The faces of Xibao and the others were ashen, and they were pulled back home with their ears twisted by the swarming Lao Zi Niang.
“This is a good job! You work one day for what I and your mother do for two days, and you still don’t know how to appreciate it! You brainless bastard, let me see if I beat you to death when I get back!”
At dusk on the Western Mountains, the green grass seedlings were shrouded in the orange light of the setting sun. I don’t know whether it was geese or wild ducks flying overhead, making a "croaking" sound.
"Brother Chao! Wait for me!" On the field ridge, Wei Lan trotted behind Gu Chao, "You haven't said anything yet, what's going on?"
“Didn’t the captain just say that?”
"Don't bluff me!" Wei Lan frowned, "What the captain said is true, but where did their injuries come from? And the one named Xibao, is he the one we met at noon? He What's wrong with your arm?" Even if you catch someone slacking off, there's no reason to beat them like that, right?
Gu Chao is not a person who will retaliate without reason. In the meantime, other things must have happened.
Gu Chao didn't say anything, Wei Lan took his arm and shook it coquettishly, "Oh, Brother Chao! Tell me! Tell me?"
"Well…"
Gu Chao suddenly stopped and looked back at Wei Lan. Wei Lan was startled by him and asked, "What's wrong?"
Gu Chao asked back: "Really want to know?"
Wei Lan nodded obediently.
The little girl's body was fragrant and soft, and she hugged his arm tightly. Her face was as big as a palm and her skin was white, and her peach blossom eyes were clear and full of curiosity.
Looking like someone who has no experience in the world.
Gu Chao turned his head and walked back with Wei Lan.
His girl is clean and beautiful, trying to warm everyone around her with her kind actions, but those people use such filthy and disgusting words to talk about her behind her back.
Gu grinded his molar teeth and suddenly felt that his hand was a little too gentle.
Wei Lan noticed that the aura around him suddenly became low and gloomy, and she couldn't help but shook his arm in worry, "Actually, I don't really want to know..."
The gentle and conciliatory words made Gu Chaoruan soften his expression. He took off Wei Lan's hand from his arm, folded his big and small hands, and clasped his index fingers together.
Gu Chao smiled in a low voice, his voice was deep and caring, "They did it themselves."
Wei Lan’s eyes widened, “Huh?”
Gu Chao turned his head and rubbed her head, his eyes gentle, "Otherwise, how do you think I found them in such a big field of sunflowers?"
Wei Lan automatically imagined in her mind that Xibao and the others gambled with leaf cards, cheated when they lost the money, and even ended up fighting, causing quite a stir, and were eventually caught by Gu Chao...
Okay, it seems, that’s reasonable?
Wei Lan lowered his head slightly, frowning his slender eyebrows, trying hard to find other possible explanations.
Not wanting her to worry about such a trivial matter, Gu Chao looked at the egrets flying in the distance and asked, seemingly unintentionally: "What did Xie Jinghong say in the letter?"
"I didn't like the letter he sent you... so I locked it in the drawer." Wei Lan answered truthfully.
Everyone should have privacy. If she wants to know, she will ask Gu Chao. If Gu Chao wants to tell her, he will naturally tell her.
There is no need to deprive the other person of any personal space, as that would be very tiring.
She is tired, and Gu Chao will be under a lot of pressure.
Wei Lan thinks that private space is a problem, but Gu Chao doesn't think so. He is willing to share everything he has with her.
Gu Chao said calmly: "Watch it if you want."
The two of them had already reached the door of the house. Gu Chao reached out and pushed open the courtyard door. When Wei Lan entered the courtyard, he lowered the door bolt with his backhand and said with a sudden smile: "It's just business matters, I'm afraid you won't understand."
Wei Lan puffed up her cheeks and turned into a puffer fish for a second, "Who are you looking down on!"
Wei Lan admitted that she couldn't understand the financial data in future generations. As for the business in front of her, what didn't she understand?
She can calculate accounts, come up with ideas, and can do many things.
Gu Chao entered the house with a mute smile. Wei Lan raised his fist and trotted after him, banging on his back.
After being annoyed for a while, Wei Lan suddenly had an idea in her mind.
She took out the envelope from the drawer and handed it to Gu Chao. She turned around and sat down in front of the window. She put her chin on her head and looked up at Gu Chao. "Brother Chao, that kid named Xie Jinghong, in addition to helping you buy and send things, is also responsible for What to do?"
Gu Chao thought for a while and said: "In addition to helping to buy some necessary supplies, I will also help pay attention to the trends in some local markets in Haishi."
Wei Lan nodded thoughtfully.
Xie Jinghong is a local from Haishi. Although he is young, people from other places like them will naturally understand Haishi better.
Perhaps Xie Jinghong is young and does not understand the twists and turns of business, but some of the information conveyed back is enough to give them some insight into the situation in the sea market.
“What’s wrong?”
Wei Lan shook her head.
With something in mind, she stood up, opened the door, and opened the large sack that Gu Chao had brought back.
There is still cloth in the sack, but this time the colors are richer.
There are pine green corduroy, silver gray (grandma gray), foggy blue coarse cloth, and red background with white polka dots spun gauze.
Wei Lan pulled twice and looked back at Gu Chao, "Didn't you buy the white one this time?"
Gu Chao nodded, "White is not popular."
It can be sold, but if you buy white, you have to dye it yourself. Compared with other fabrics with the same price, white is not people's first choice.
Wei Lan can dye cloth with simple and novel patterns, but there is no special equipment for dyeing at home. She usually dyes with a small pot, which is not efficient and tiring.
When choosing fabric this time, Gu Chao simply gave up on getting the white cloth.
Wei Lan said "Oh" and asked, "Are there any other colors?"
"Yes." Gu Chao nodded and took Wei Lan to his room again.
The sack containing the fabrics was not small, so Gu Chao only put one in her room to make it easier for Wei Lan to take when she needed it.
As for the others, Gu Chao kept them in his room.
There were six sacks in total. He took one in the morning, the remaining five and Gu Yang brought back two more at noon. The remaining one was prepared by Gu Chao to go to the post office after work in the afternoon.
As soon as he entered the house, he saw five large sacks stacked neatly on the ground. Gu Chao was stunned for a moment, but he quickly came to his senses.
It should be that Gu Yang ran again in the afternoon and got everything back.
Gu Chao took down the sacks and arranged them neatly. Thinking that Wei Lan wanted to see the colors, he opened the sacks with a short blade and held the bottom edge to pour the contents out.
Wei Lan quickly stopped her, "Don't...it will get dirty easily if you pour it out, and it's hard to clean up. I'll just take a look at it like this."
