Back to the Northeast 1970

When Yan Baoshu asked Wan Sixing to abolish Chen Hongbing, Wan Sixing didn't seem to be overly surprised, he just said "hmm" calmly, then took a cigarette from the table and lit one, "Smoking?" ?” Although Wan Sining was asking for Yan Baoshu’s opinion, he didn’t wait for his action, and handed the lit cigarette directly to Yan Baoshu.

Yan Baoshu took the cigarette and took a puff, waiting for Wan Sining's reply.

"Is this a matter... not in a hurry." Wan Sining held a cigarette in the corner of his mouth, and his thoughtful expression looked a bit old-fashioned, which didn't match his age. I don't want to, but in order to compete with Lu Xiangbei, I agreed."

The corner of Yan Baoshu's mouth twitched, "You are really naive."

Wan Si Ning smiled, "Let's keep this person under our noses for the time being, I don't think he is a responsible person, he will cause trouble for me sooner or later, and he will be famous if he is dealt with at that time." ?”

Yan Baoshu asked suspiciously: "He has caused trouble for you, isn't it too late?"

"You underestimate me, Wan Sixing, right? Chen Hongbing's virtue is the only one. If nothing else, I can crush him to death with a single finger. Don't worry." Wan Sixing came over and smiled at Yan Baoshu: "Since I Since the day he joined the organization, I've had people stare at him, and he'd better not cause any trouble for me, once he makes a move, you see how I'll deal with him."

Yan Baoshu couldn't help grinning, "You really are a chicken thief."

"That's right, otherwise how can I lead my group of brothers?"

"Praise you for being fat, and you're still panting with me."

"Hahahaha, I'm not joking with you, hurry to the front with me, my mother has made dumplings, pickled cabbage and meat."

After listening to Si Ning's words, Yan Baoshu put on his shoes and followed him to the front yard. Yan Baoshu was very considerate when he first arrived, so he also left a very good impression in the eyes of Wan Si Ning's parents. .The conditions of Wan Sixing's family are indeed good, compared with Lu Xiangbei's family, it is even worse, so Yan Baoshu summed up the situation of Wan Sixing, and it is precisely because of his good conditions that he can't stand the relationship with Lu Xiangbei. There was a misunderstanding between Xiang Bei, so the two of them have not been able to reconcile until now.It is said that it is better to get rid of enemies than to end them, Yan Baoshu suddenly felt that if Lu Xiangbei and Wan Sixing became close buddies, the consequences would definitely be a hundred times, a thousand times, ten thousand times better than the current plan.

Wan Sining's mother's craftsmanship is really good. The dumplings are full of oil and water. Let alone the sauerkraut, the meat in the dumpling stuffing is solid, fat and thin. When you pick it up with chopsticks, the dumpling skin will break slightly. , the aroma and oil star overflowed instantly, and then dipped in garlic, the taste is really indescribable.

Yan Baoshu's glutton was hooked out, and his appetite was so great that he accidentally ate nearly twenty of them. In the end, he himself felt a little embarrassed, and kept apologizing while blushing.Wan Sixing was amused by Yan Baoshu's appearance, he slapped the table and laughed, and Wan Sixing's parents were also very happy, especially Wan Sixing's father, Wan Longhair, he always reprimanded Wan Sixing : "You kid will make more friends like Baoshu in the future. Take a look at those around you. Except for Haitang, there are a few funny people."

Wan Sining was also very obedient, nodded sharply and said, "I have become friends with Baoshu, haven't I?"

Are Yan Baoshu and Wan Sixing considered friends?Yan Baoshu didn't have a definite answer in his heart. On the way Wan Sining sent him home, the two walked side by side. brother?"

Yan Baoshu said with a smile: "Whether it is not sure yet, it depends on whether you are worth paying."

"Hey, I've been busy all day and just changed such a heartless sentence? What's the matter? Do you have to kneel down and beg you?"

"No, don't kneel down and beg me, I can't bear it." After finishing speaking, Yan Baoshu restrained his smile, and said a little seriously: "Sining, to be honest, I can feel that you are a good person, but the problem is The reason is that the relationship between me and Lu Xiangbei cannot be dismantled by anyone. If you want to become friends with me, you must first settle down with Lu Xiangbei. Of course, I did not ask you to call Lu Xiangbei brothers. But at the very least, don't be like an enemy, strangling you to death as soon as you meet."

Si Ning sighed heavily after listening to Yan Baoshu's words, "I know, is Lu Xiangbei more important to you, but it doesn't matter, I have the confidence to make you my heart-to-heart friend, as for Lu Xiangbei, okay ...I promise you, when Lu Xiangbei returns from serving as a soldier, I will settle down with him, is that all right?"

"Really?" Yan Baoshu didn't expect Wan Sining to agree so quickly.

"A gentleman is quick to whip his whip, do you think what I said is nonsense?"

Yan Baoshu smiled brilliantly, "You said this, just don't forget it."

Yan Baoshu believes that Wan Sixing can do it. As for Lu Xiangbei, he had the idea of ​​reconciling with Wan Sixing early in the morning, but no matter what he said or did, Wan Sixing just couldn't listen to it. Now it's all over. After all, Si Ning was finally willing to reconcile with Lu Xiangbei. As for whether he and Lu Xiangbei could be friends, there was no way to force it.

In the next few days, Wan Sixing would always find time to come to the art troupe to play with Yan Baoshu, and would bring Chen Hongbing, Du Xinguo and others with him every time. Yan Baoshu knew that this was deliberately arranged by Wan Sixing, so to a large extent They also cooperated with Wan Sixing, so every time Yan Baoshu could see Chen Hongbing and others standing aside with impatient faces, unable to leave even if they wanted to, Wan Sixing didn't say anything, and had to watch Yan Baoshu and Wan Shining laughed heartily, this process really tortured Chen Hongbing.

Of course, Yan Baoshu himself was not idle during the days when he was with Wan Sixing. On the day of Gong Xiaohai's funeral, he went to help the Gong family for a day. He came to Gong Xiaohai's grave and lit three cigarettes. He said to Gong Xiaohai: "Xiaohai, I can't do anything about the family you hate, but I can help you return the hatred you hate Chen Hongbing. This is not only for you, but also for Yan Baoshu. , but also for myself.”

A young life came to an end completely. Yan Baoshu left Gong Xiaohai’s grave with unbearable grief. After returning to the art troupe, Captain Li’s wife came as scheduled. She brought Yan Baoshu very good news. Whether Yan Baoshu can hook the tablecloth or not, Yan Baoshu’s eyes lit up when he heard it, and he nodded again and again. In the end, Yan Baoshu and Captain Li’s wife negotiated the price. Prices ranging from six to eight yuan were sold.

Six to eight yuan, almost half a month's wages for some unranked workers. This is the first business that he got. Yan Baoshu vowed to do his best. Only when his reputation spreads will he have a steady stream of money. Passenger flow is the only way for him to earn more money and lay a solid foundation.

Yan Baoshu's side is very busy, and Gu Jun's side is not free to go anywhere. He is busy making love with Shi Cui every day, and secretly he wants to hide Shi Cui from the most credible The two brothers went back to the countryside to buy grain. The process of buying grain was also very secretive. Generally speaking, it should not be announced to the outside world. He would only dare to do so when there were necessary factors such as tight-lipped villagers in a united village. If the slightest bit of wind leaked out, he would most likely follow in his brother's footsteps.

In the business cooperation between Gu Jun and Yan Baoshu, he occupies the majority, so many things have to be done by himself. This spring season, people are also out for activities, and many old people and children are not there. He hid in his house and didn't go out very much every day. In April, the Songhua River melted, and a special Wukai River attracted the attention of many people, and even some foreign friends came to watch the ceremony.There is a difference between Wenkai and Wukai. Wenkai is waiting for the arrival of natural conditions to slowly melt the ice of the Songhua River, while Wukai is using explosives to blast the ice, and then there are fishing boats. Entering the river, because Wukai used explosives, there will be some half-dead river fish on the river surface. Although these fish are taken away by the fishing boats of the production team, in the end these fish are distributed to every household's rice bowl. Just go and pick it up, so for a while, every household eats fish cakes for one meal, and fish cakes for the next meal, until they get tired of eating them.

At the end of May, the city finally heated up. When people took off their thick cotton clothes and put on thin unlined clothes, Yan Baoshu also received a good treatment in his life, that is, a few places were given by the art troupe On a business trip to Shanghai, Yan Baoshu was among them, and was strongly recommended by Head Tong.

Yan Baoshu personally felt that this was not only a good treatment, but also a rare opportunity to go to Shanghai without paying his own expenses. The time to leave for Shanghai was set in three days, so after Yan Baoshu came out of the art troupe that day, he planned to tell the news to Yuan Lu Xiangbei in Liaoning.It has been almost two months since Lu Xiangbei went to Liaoning to serve as a soldier. During this period, Yan Baoshu wrote there a letter every week. At the beginning, he didn't wait for Lu Xiangbei's reply. He was waiting for Lu Xiangbei's reply. During that period, Yan Baoshu had mixed feelings in his heart. He often comforted himself that Lu Xiangbei must be very busy, otherwise he would not not reply.It wasn't until half a month passed that Yan Baoshu received Lu Xiangbei's first reply letter. The handwriting in the letter was full of teeth and claws, as if it was written in an emergency. Later, Lu Xiangbei's replies gradually increased. Only then did Yan Baoshu realize that Lu Xiangbei was a new recruit after all, and spent most of his time on daily drills, so the jealousy faded away, replaced by endless yearning.

This is the ninth letter Yan Baoshu wrote to Lu Xiangbei. In the letter, he said that he was going to Shanghai on a business trip, and he told Lu Xiangbei that he would bring him a gift.Yan Baoshu mailed the letter, and when he was about to go home, Gu Jun suddenly appeared in front of him on a bicycle, "Baoshu, get in the car."

Yan Baoshu got into Gu Jun's car without hesitation, sat in the back seat and asked, "Where are we going?"

Gu Jun whispered: "Go to Xihegou, our first batch of grain arrived two days ago, the quantity is not much, only about sixty catties."

"There are quite a few, what kind of bicycle do you want?"

"Ah? What did you say?"

Yan Baoshu suppressed a smile, "It's nothing, just concentrate on riding your car."

"My two brothers are in charge of selling in Xihegou. The two of us went there to help watch the wind."

"Okay, then hurry up and ride."

It was almost dark when Yan Baoshu and Gu Jun arrived in Xihegou. Maybe this is the difference in weather and seasons. I remember that when he first came to Xihegou, the area was sparsely populated. Looking at it now, he can already see quite a few people. Walking around here, of course, most of them are goofy.

Yan Baoshu got out of the car, stood on the mound not far away and watched, "Which one is your brother?"

"Those two." Gu Jun pointed to two people not far away, one tall and one short, and said, "That's all."

Yan Baoshu asked curiously: "They didn't bring food out? What if someone buys it then? Where can I go to see the goods?"

"Don't worry, there must be a place."

Yan Baoshu laughed, "Keep it a secret from me."

"No... I don't mean that."

"Okay, I know what you mean, the less people know, the less danger, let's say..." Just as Yan Baoshu said this, he suddenly saw a familiar person walking by in front of him, and that person also saw it, At this time, the corner of his mouth was crooked and he was full of ruffian laughter.

Yan Baoshu was inexplicably guilty, he let out a sigh of relief after coughing twice, and then walked towards Wan Sining.

After Si Ning looked at Yan Baoshu, his eyes were deep right now, as if he wanted to pierce Yan Baoshu's heart, "Why are you here?"
