Siheyuan: Yan Jiekuang's carefree life

Meng Yongsheng was very efficient. After returning to the town, he reported the sugar issue to the county supply and marketing cooperative and sent people out to help purchase sugar beets.

Early the next morning, Tian Dazhuang and Wu Haiwang met up at the brigade headquarters and set off with four militiamen. Fearing delays, Gao Junsong borrowed all three bicycles from his home, and also borrowed the bicycles of Yan Jiekuang and Su Zihui. When they arrived at the door of the supply and marketing cooperative, the cooperative had just opened for a short time. Tian Dazhuang and Wu Haiwang entered the supply and marketing cooperative and went directly to the finance department. Wu Haiwang took out yesterday's receipt and got the money very smoothly.

Because they were carrying a "huge sum of money" on them, Wu Haiwang and Tian Dazhuang did not dare to delay in the town any longer and immediately returned to the brigade with their men.

"Accountant Wu, you're back?!" A little after 9:30 in the morning, Tian Dazhuang and his group of six just entered the village. The old men and women who were chatting and basking in the sun at the entrance of the village greeted them one after another.

Wu Haiwang said, "I'm back! Guys, continue chatting. I have to go back to the brigade headquarters."

"Secretary Tian, ​​when will the grain be distributed this year?!"

Tian Dazhuang replied: "Tomorrow! Tomorrow we will not only distribute food but also pay the workers' wages."

"Secretary, it's only been half a month, how much can you give out?!"

Tian Dazhuang replied: "15 yuan per person! We will pay it again at the end of the month! I tell you, go back and tell your families, don't be lazy! Work hard. Whoever doesn't do a good job, be careful or we will fire him!" After that, Tian Dazhuang rode his bicycle to chase Wu Haiwang and others.

"Looking at this, it seems that Tian Dazhuang is not lying. 30 yuan a month. Although I only work for three months, it still adds up to 90 yuan. Counting the work points, this year's income is not small. I have to talk to my daughter-in-law when I get home. I absolutely cannot lose this job."

"Yes! I will talk to my eldest son's wife about it when I get back."

Word spread quickly. In just one hour, the news of tomorrow's grain and money distribution spread throughout the entire brigade. Every household was calculating in their minds how much grain and money they could exchange for this year's work points!

Tian Dazhuang returned to the brigade headquarters and just parked his bicycle when he saw Gao Junsong directing people to unload the bicycle. Tian Dazhuang walked over and asked, "Old Gao, where did you get so many beets?!"

Gao Junsong said, "Except for what we purchased ourselves, the rest were all sourced with the help of Meng Yongsheng. You know what, this guy is still as efficient as before. I just checked, and the sugar beets they helped us source fully meet our requirements. As long as there are enough raw materials, our sugar making workshop will not only not lose money, but will make a lot of money. With the money, we should be able to set up a school and other things, so that the children in our village don't have to travel a long way to go to town to study."

At the same time, in Sijiu City.

The postman rode his bicycle and appeared at the gate of No. 95 Nanluoguxiang. As soon as the postman got off the bicycle, Auntie San came out of the yard. Seeing the postman, Auntie San smiled and asked, "Xiao Liu, whose letter are you delivering today?!"

The postman Xiao Liu smiled and replied, "Auntie, today we are delivering your letter. There is not only a letter, but also a parcel. However, the parcel is too big, so I can't deliver it to you. You can only pick it up yourself. Here is the letter and the form for picking up the parcel. Don't forget to bring your household registration book when you arrive."

"Hey!" Auntie took the things and responded. She watched Xiao Liu ride away on his bicycle and thought to herself, "My home is still the best place to be. No matter where I go, I always think of this home."

"Old lady, didn't you go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy soap? How come you're back so soon?!" As soon as the third aunt entered the main room, Yan Bugui's voice rang out. The third aunt replied, "How come Jie Kuang sent us a letter? Not only a letter, but also a parcel. Xiao Liu said that the parcel was too big, so we should go to the post office to pick it up ourselves."

Yan Bugui took the letter, tore open the envelope, took out the letter and started reading. Yan Bugui quickly read the contents of the letter and said with a smile, "This kid is really capable!"

The three aunts asked: "What's the matter?!"

Yan Bugui replied: "Jie Kuang found a partner, who is also an educated youth from the city of Beijing."

"What?! Jie Kuang has a girlfriend?!" The third aunt showed a happy expression on her face, muttering to herself: "This is good! This is good! Jie Kuang has a girlfriend, so he has a place to go in the future, and I can rest assured."

Yan Bugui said with a worried look on his face: "If Jie Kuang gets married there, I'm afraid he won't be able to come back!"

The third aunt said, "Who is our Jie Kuang?! As a father, don't you know?! He must have his own plans. You don't have to worry about him. If Jie Kuang has found a place, the only one left is Jiefang. I'll ask my brother to help look for someone suitable later. Is there any?!" Then she asked, "Are you going to pick up the parcel, or am I going to pick it up?!"

Yan Bugui replied, "Don't let anyone go. Let's go together!" After that, Yan Bugui went to the inner room to get the household registration book, came out and called his wife, then pushed his bicycle out of the courtyard.

At the same time, in a compound in the old city.

Su Zihui's grandfather Su Zhiguo, who was sitting on the sofa reading a newspaper, put down the newspaper when he heard the noise. He saw his daughter-in-law Miao Huiping asking the orderly to carry in a large bag of things, and asked curiously, "Old lady, where did you get this big bag of things?!"

After the orderly left, Miao Huiping smiled and replied, "Of course, my good granddaughter sent it from where she was sent to work in the countryside." Miao Huiping picked up the fruit knife on the coffee table and slowly opened the package. Su Zhiguo said, "She just went there not long ago, how could she get so many things?!"

Miao Huiping rolled her eyes at her man and said, "Don't forget that Old Ghost Ding is over there. When the Japanese invaders launched a massive raid, the situation was so critical, but he never treated his stomach badly. Even if the situation over there is not good now, it will not be worse than it was back then. How could he treat Zihui badly?!" Then Miao Huiping opened the package, took out the items in the package one by one and placed them on the coffee table. Not long after, a stack of letters came out of the package. Miao Huiping took out the letters, looked at them, and said, "There are four letters in total. One is from Old Ghost Ding to you, one is from my granddaughter to me. The other two are from Old Ghost Ding to my daughter, and from my granddaughter to my mother."

Su Zhiguo took the letter from Ding Huawei, opened the envelope and read it. He quickly read the contents of the letter, sighed, and said, "Luo Dajun, Jiang Bi Da, Cheng Feng, and Han Hu have all gone to his place. In addition, our granddaughter is dating someone."

Miao Huiping had already read the contents of the letter and said, "Don't worry. Our granddaughter is looking for a good man. Take a look!" Miao Huiping handed the letter to her man. Su Zhiguo was not polite and took the letter and read it directly.

After reading the letter, Su Zhiguo suddenly laughed and said, "I never thought that after all the twists and turns, I would find him?! If those guys in our compound knew that our Xiaohui has a boyfriend, I guess many of them would go back and cause trouble for Yan Jiekuang."

Miao Huiping said, "No need for anyone else. Your eldest grandson is planning to cause trouble for that boy. A while ago, I heard from Xiaonan that Zihao wanted to use his family leave to visit the place where Xiaohui was sent to work. I guess he was going after Xiaohui's boyfriend."
