Traveling through the 70s: First Love Face Green Tea

Chapter 340 Widow Wu stirs up trouble

Gu Jiangming sighed inwardly and said cryptically: "Second uncle, what happened back then will never happen again in our brigade. We have made preparations early now." Now every household has started digging into the underground kiln since last month. As long as you plan well, you won't be full, but you won't starve to death.

Gu Jianguo couldn't help but feel sour in his heart after hearing these words.

He knew that the second uncle had been suffering in his heart over the past few years. The tragic death of his parents and younger siblings was a hurdle that he would never be able to overcome.

"Dad! Don't worry, as long as your son has a morsel of food, you will not go hungry. Even if he doesn't, he will find a way to get it for you." The second uncle's son, a man over fifty years old, said with tears in his eyes.

When there was a commotion here, those few smart monkey-like boys ran to call for people like a gust of wind. Except for going up the mountain to look for food, they were basically here, and it was a mess.

"Gu boy, what's the situation outside? Has it rained in other brigades? Will the crops in the fields have a good harvest?" someone in the crowd asked.

Hearing this, the originally noisy crowd quieted down and waited quietly for Gu Jiangming's reply.

These days, they knew that Gu Jiangming said he was going to the provincial capital to sell the mung bean cakes, jujube cakes, and biscuits made in the brigade at the supply and marketing cooperatives and department stores in the provincial capital, and to take a look at the situation outside.

Meeting a pair of expectant eyes, Gu Jiangming couldn't bear it, but he still shook his head and opened his mouth in a hoarse voice: "The situation outside is serious. Secretary Lu said that the workshop in the brigade will finish the batch on hand." , it’s closed.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Widow Wu immediately jumped out, pointed at Gu Jiangming and shouted angrily: "What? If it's closed, how can we make money? The food in this field is getting worse day by day, and the harvest is almost gone, and we are asked to If the workshop is closed, won't it cost our lives? I don't agree that it shouldn't be closed."

Her family currently has two workers grinding sweet potato puree every day, earning 5 yuan a month. The workshop is closed, so where can she earn this money.

Continuing to dance: "You have workers in your family, and your father is still a captain. You have made a lot of money through speculation, and you bring things home for free. Your family is rich, and you can eat meat every now and then. There is a lot of grain in stock. If this workshop is closed, we will have to borrow grain from the brigade leader's house. Otherwise, we will not be able to survive this day. I will have to go to the commune and say something," he said with a proud threat on his face.

She didn't believe what she said. Gu Jiangming and the others dared to close the workshop.

If Gu Jianguo was just angry just now, now he wants to give Widow Wu a slap: "Widow Wu, shut up." Gu Jianguo roared angrily. This would be heard by some thoughtful bystanders. This is where he has to squat in the fence yard. .

"What's wrong? I'm not wrong. Your family eats white rice, gnocchi, white flour steamed buns, and even meat every once in a while. It's like that landlord. Who in this brigade can compare with you?" Widow Wu said Said angrily.

These words made Gu Jianguo's heart beat uncontrollably. He panicked and couldn't help but wonder. How did Widow Wu know what his family was eating? He had specifically told his children not to eat anything at home. explain.

There was no trace of panic on his face, but his face became more and more gloomy: "I'm not afraid of wearing shoes even if I'm barefoot. My boss is a worker, and the whole family is a labor force. Ask the people in the brigade whose family is full of centimeters. No wealth at all,

If you want to go to the commune, you can go ahead and just go ahead and let yourself be lazy and work as a foreigner. When others work, your back hurts, your head hurts, and your stomach hurts. The whole family makes various excuses to avoid work and keeps enjoying themselves. But I am surprised. , just for the sparse work points you three have, you two are so fat from eating, I have to go to the commune and report this to the leaders."

She is usually a petty thief, and the thing she did is enough to get her shot several times. That is to say, she is usually careful, and the member of her family has gained a glorious title for her sacrifice, so everyone tacitly agrees with it. .

"Oh! This is what I said. I'm so angry. Tell me! You have so much food at home. As the captain, what's wrong with you taking it out and sharing it with everyone? You're stingy." In fact, he was shocked. Jump, she was always very careful about this, there was no way that this mud-legged country boy would be discovered.

The scene was silent for a while, and everyone else seemed to have seen a ghost. Why did Widow Wu dare to say so today?

Which family saved eggs, saved grain, and wild animals from the mountains, and didn't they secretly sell them?

However, when the people of the Qingshan Brigade heard this, they couldn't help but murmur, how much food does the captain's family have?

Greed arises in some people's hearts.

Since the captain's family has so much food, they don't share it with them. This is white rice, gnocchi, and white steamed buns with meat. Their family can only eat it during the Chinese New Year.

"Yes, captain, the food in this house is at the bottom, and the children are even more hungry and crying. We adults can't bear it, but the children are still young, how can they be so hungry? Captain, please lend us some." "Food, I'll keep the grain anyway." A few people didn't dare to give it to them. They borrowed it anyway, and if they don't return it when the time comes, it's not up to them.

It makes no sense, they eat chaffy vegetables.

But the captain had endless food.

Hearing this, Gu Jianguo looked at the triumphant Widow Wu with a dark look on his face. After Widow Wu finished speaking, the calculations on his face were clearly visible and he secretly made a decision in his heart.

The second uncle's face was full of anger: "You troublemakers, you are not seen at work, just want to take advantage. No one can have enough food these days. The more you earn when you build a country, the more you eat. This is not enough to cause famine." At that time, I just wanted to live by borrowing food. I don’t think you want to survive." Li Qiu said that not long after, the family ran out of food. If things continue like this, sooner or later, they will not be able to survive.

"Yes! Everyone is not rich these days. Who has food but doesn't keep it for himself?"

"That's not the case. I only had one full meal on the day when the food was distributed, and then two meals a day until I was full, as long as I didn't starve to death."

Gu Jiangming's indifferent eyes swept over those people, and his voice was cold: "How come you have lost your son and become a beggar? It's none of your business whether my family has food or not. Others work while your family goes to the kang. One day I take leave at night and go home to lie down, doing more work in the underground kiln than in my pocket. I am really old, and my face is durable and I can still pretend."

Widow Wu was so angry at Gu Jiangming that her face turned pale and white, and she was trembling: "You~you~" she kept saying.

The gazes of the people around her were like knives, making her feel like she was naked, and piercing her heart. Widow Wu felt that her face had been torn off by a boy with no hair on her face due to her age. Rubbing and stomping on the ground, I couldn't help but hate Gu Jiangming even more.

"How dare you curse my son, I will fight with you." After saying that, he quickly rushed towards Gu Jiangming.

When Widow Wu was about to hit Gu Jiangming, a flash of joy flashed on her face. She would hit him below the waist. It would be best to smash him. If he can't become a man, let's see if that little bitch Li Qiuyuan can still do it. Will want him.
