Counterattack in the chronology

When Gu Lichun returned to the second grandmother's house, his mood had returned to calm.

He and Yang Aiguo did all the work they could do. They pulled several carts of firewood and wheat straw, and the yard was big enough to fit them anyway.

Second Mistress said beside her: "Enough is enough, I have never been idle."

Aunt Zuo stood at the door and chatted with the second grandmother: "Auntie, your son-in-law and grandson are really filial. No one in our village is as lucky as you."

Second Mistress responded to Aunt Zuo's words with a smile.

Gu Lichun said: "Aunt Zuo, as the saying goes, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors, and I will have to trouble your family to worry about it in the future."

Aunt Zuo said with a hearty smile, "Just don't worry about it."

While talking, Gu Lichun gave the remaining half pack of cigarettes to Aunt Zuo's man. He doesn't smoke himself, but he carries cigarettes with him for convenience.When the other party received the cigarette, he was so happy that he could see his teeth but not see his eyes. Cigarettes are a good thing, and he is usually only willing to smoke tobacco leaves.

Aunt Zuo looked at Gu Lichun, the more she looked at her, the more pleasing she was. This child is generous.

After the work was done, it was three o'clock in the afternoon, and it was time to go back to the farm.

"Uncle, we should go back."

Yang Aiguo looked down at his watch and replied, "It's time to go back."

The two bid farewell to Second Mistress, and Second Mistress asked them to pick up the things they had packed long ago and sent them out of the yard.

The old man had a look of reluctance, and before leaving, he asked Yang Aiguo: "Is Zhuzhu coming back from winter vacation?"

Yang Aiguo was also not sure, so he could only say: "I don't know how many days we will be on vacation, we will see when the time comes. Mom, take good care of yourself. Call us if you need anything."

Second Mistress smiled and nodded: "Okay." She kept sending the two of them to the entrance of the village, and walked back slowly until they were no longer visible.

An hour later, Gu Lichun and Yang Aiguo returned to the farm.

Gu Lichun invited his uncle to his house for dinner, Yang Aiguo shook his head: "I just went there last night, so I won't go today. I'll go back to the guest house to have a look. Even though it's a free activity, you have to take it easy."

Gu Lichun couldn't force it, so he said: "I can't help but follow the leader out. You can go back to the guest house and call my office if you need anything. By the way, have you set a time to leave?"

Yang Aiguo said: "The New Year Bureau is going to participate in the Canton Fair. We have to leave before the 10th. There are still a few farms in the suburbs and the province to visit. I guess we have to leave tomorrow."

Gu Lichun sighed: "It's so fast."

Yang Aiguo smiled and said: "It's not fast. According to the previous discussion, I only planned to stay at your farm for 2 days. It has been several days. The next few can only speed up."

Yang Aiguo went back to the guest house by himself, and Gu Lichun checked the time. The people in the office hadn't finished get off work yet, so they went for a walk to see if there was anything to do.

Nothing happened, Zhao Gao told him that the group of visitors ordered 500 bottles of tempeh and fermented bean curd, and even bought straw hats and sandals.

"These people are very rich, and they can buy whatever they can."

Gu Lichun said with a smile: "The person who came out to investigate is at least a cadre, and the salary is not low."

Zhao Gao nodded: "Really, look at Lao Ye, his salary is very high, 140 yuan."

Gu Lichun was surprised: "Lao Ye told you all the salary?"

Zhao Gaodao: "He said it himself when he was drunk."

Gu Lichun shook his head, Ye Beilin really didn't care much.

Zhao Gao said again: "Anyway, Xiaokang was stimulated. He planned to study hard. He said he must learn veterinary medicine well, and he also said that Lao Ye would teach him."

Gu Lichun praised: "Ambition."

There was nothing wrong in the office of the Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Department. Zhao Gao said that he was going out to work, and Gu Lichun went with him to the pig farm to see the situation.

Not long after he came back, Chen Jie also came. As soon as he saw Gu Lichun, he said, "Brother Gu, Secretary Zhu asked you to find time to write a few articles, such as writing about aquaculture, straw woven products, and pig raising." Write."

Gu Lichun nodded and agreed: "Okay, I just happen to be ready to write."

Chen Jie said with a smile: "I will also write a few articles, and contribute together with you, and I will treat you when I get the manuscript fee."

Gu Lichun was naturally happy to be entertained.

Chen Jie's work has been going smoothly in the past few months. She is careful, organized and well-written. She is getting more and more attention from Secretary Zhu.In the past six months, she has published several articles on Tofu Pieces one after another. According to her, her father even sent her a letter to praise her, which is extremely rare for her.

Gu Lichun saw that Chen Jie couldn't help but think of the capital, so he naturally thought of the Meng family and his son, so he asked Zhao Gao, "How is the situation in the labor reform team recently? Are you okay?"

Zhao Gao frowned: "I heard from my brother that he is generally fine, but that old man Meng has severe rheumatism and the pain is severe. Xiao Meng took medicine for him, but it didn't help much."

Gu Lichun thought for a while and said, "Well, I'll go and have a look later."

Gu Lichun first went to look for Meng Nianqun, but the people at the pig farm said that he had just finished work and he didn't know where he had gone.

Gu Lichun went straight to the men's dormitory of the labor reform team.

There are not many people in the dormitory, most of them are still working and have not come back, only old man Luo and Meng Anjing are inside.

As soon as Gu Lichun came in, old man Luo struggled to get down: "Chief Gu."

Gu Lichun waved his hand at him: "Lie down and don't move."

He walked over, cared for old man Luo in a businesslike manner, and asked him how he was doing.Old man Luo's ears were not very good, so Gu Lichun had no choice but to talk and make gestures to communicate with him.

The old man Luo's condition is very bad. He is old, his body is seriously worn out, and he is too tired during the autumn harvest. Even young people can't bear it, let alone him.

Gu Lichun sighed silently, and said, "You should rest for a few days, and I will give you a lighter job in the future."

The old man Luo said gratefully after he understood: "Thank you, Chief Gu, if you hadn't taken care of you, my old bones would have died a long time ago."

Gu Lichun didn't say much to him, but only signaled him to rest more.

Gu Lichun turned to Meng Anjing who had been silently listening to their conversation. He first asked about his physical condition in a stylized manner, and the questioning would not affect his work.

Meng Anjing replied: "I'm okay, I can support it. The pain has been severe these days, and it should be changing soon."

Gu Lichun said: "Tomorrow I will bring you another bottle of medicinal wine. In addition, I will ask my friends in Longjiang if they have tiger bone wine." Meng Anjing mentioned this medicinal wine when registering the medicines for everyone. He didn't expect Gu Lichun to remember it.

Hearing the words, Meng Anjing raised his head and glanced at Gu Lichun, tried his best to restrain his emotions, and said calmly: "No need, Section Chief Gu, that wine is too expensive, and it's not for people like me."

Gu Lichun wanted to ask Meng Anjing something, so he looked at old man Luo, although he was hard of hearing, he couldn't let his guard down completely.

Seeing that he seemed to have something to say, Meng Anjing slowly stood up while supporting the edge of the bed, and walked out staggeringly.

Gu Lichun subconsciously reached out to help him, Meng Anjing waved his hand with a wry smile: "Don't help me, it's not good for people to see."

The two walked slowly to Gu Lichun's office on the pig farm, and Gu Lichun gently closed the door.

Meng Anjing looked at the shelves full of books, and said with relief: "You are a studious child, that's great."

Gu Lichun smiled and pointed to the stool to signal him to sit down.

The two sat opposite each other, and the atmosphere was oppressive and quiet.

Gu Lichun thought for a while before asking: "I want to know more about the Meng family's affairs." Meng Anjing trembled when he heard this question. Silent.

Gu Lichun added: "Only when I know the real situation can I think of a good countermeasure."

Meng Anjing's throat was choked, and his lips moved a few times before he said in a harsh voice, "Chief Gu, it's better not to know some things."

Gu Lichun stared into his eyes and said seriously: "Instead of letting others tell me, it's better for me to take the initiative to find out."

Meng Anjing said meaningfully: "Yes, you are very smart, smarter than the average person. You can control five games, but outside the Red River Farm, you can't control it. When the hurricane comes, no matter how brave Haiyan is, he has to hide stand up."

Gu Lichun frowned: "Don't worry, I have a measure, please tell me the matter."

Hearing this sentence, Meng Anjing, who had always been calm, suddenly became a little excited: "Don't worry, measure yourself? Do you know what happened to the last person who said this? He wanted to avenge his family and fight, but he was beaten alive He was seriously injured, and now I don’t know whether he is dead or alive! The most important thing in our family’s catastrophe is not to show bravery, but to live first, and the one who survives is one.”

Gu Lichun looked at him, suddenly speechless.

Meng Anjing stood up abruptly, with a resolute look on her face: "Don't ask, I won't say anything. If I were you, I wouldn't ask these questions. I will protect myself like keeping fire and pinch all dangerous germs. For example, Jiang Mu, I will catch him and coax him away with a place in the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University."

Meng Anjing had never talked so much to Gu Lichun in one breath, he seemed tired, stopped halfway, took a long breath, then turned around and limped away.

Gu Lichun looked at his back, and it took him a long time to calm down.

He sat quietly in the room for half an hour before spreading out the manuscript paper to write the article.He did it almost in one go, writing one article in half an hour and writing five articles in one breath.

He didn't stop until there was a knock on the office door, gently pinching his sore wrist.

Li Xia's voice came from outside the door: "Brother, it's so late, why don't you go home? I'm looking for you everywhere."

Gu Lichun stood up, put the manuscript in his schoolbag, and prepared to take it home and revise it again.

He opened the door, and it was already dark outside.

Gu Lichun got on his bicycle and went home with Lixia.

Li Xia noticed that his eldest brother was more silent than usual, so he asked, "Brother, what's wrong with you?"

Gu Lichun found an excuse: "It's okay, I'm conceiving an article."

Li Xia said in admiration: "Brother, you are really good. You can't write an essay, but I can't do it anymore. Every time I write an essay, I can pull out my beard."

Gu Lichun thought it was funny, so he asked, "Have you grown a beard? You still pull your beard."

Li Xia giggled and said, "That's why I said pulling out the beard."

After chatting with Li Xia, Gu Lichun felt inexplicably much better.

Along the way, Li Xia kept talking: "Brother, our school is really good, and the teachers' level is also high, which is much better than the previous school. By the way, Xiaoman said that she wanted to skip a grade, and that she was too old in the class. Students go to school earlier than those in our village."

Gu Lichun has been too busy recently, and he neglected his younger siblings, so he asked, "Is the school allowed to skip grades?"

Lixia said: "Xiaoman went to ask the teacher, and the teacher said that skipping grades is okay, but the grades are very good, you have to be the top three in the class, and you have to pass the exams of the senior grades before you can skip. Xiaoman is working hard."

Gu Lichun said: "Well, I'll ask her when I go back."

When they got home, the whole family was waiting for them.

Tian Sanhong asked: "Isn't it a rest today? Why are you back so late?"

Gu Lichun said: "I'm writing a manuscript."

As soon as Tian Sanhong heard that he was writing the manuscript, she hurriedly brought him some food: "You need to use your brain again, you should eat more."

When it comes to nourishing the brain, Lidong and the others started arguing at the dinner table.

Some say that eating fish is the most nourishing, some say eating pork head meat is the most nourishing, and some say eating tofu is the most nourishing.

In the end, Xiaoman came to the conclusion that the brain has to be innate, and some people don't use it no matter how hard they are.Everyone knows who this certain person is, and they all look at Lidong tacitly, but Lidong doesn't notice it.

Looking at his family, Gu Lichun felt a surge of warmth in his heart.

Perhaps, what Meng Anjing said makes sense. He has to arrange his own life first, and he has to continue to strengthen his control. He can't take care of other places for the time being, but at least he has to take good care of the three-thirds of the acre in front of him. Take good care of the people in front of you, and nip any possible dangers in the bud.

After dinner, Gu Lichun chatted with his younger brothers and sisters for a while, and then talked with Xiaoman about skipping a grade. He found that Xiaoman was getting more and more determined, and his goal was clear: he would skip to the third grade next semester.She is currently self-studying the textbooks for the second semester of her second grade and the first semester of her third grade.The tutors I hired were Li Qingqing and Zhao Mingguang, who asked questions whenever I caught the teacher at school.

"You study hard, and you can ask me if you don't understand." Gu Lichun encouraged her.

After the brothers and sisters went back to sleep, Gu Lichun went back to his room to revise the article, and did not go to rest until 10:[-].

The next day, as soon as he went to work, Gu Lichun received a call from his uncle, saying that they were leaving today.

As soon as Yang Aiguo hung up the phone, Ye Beilin called in. After a few words, Deng Chang also asked him to answer the phone, and it was Deputy Director Nian who called.

Gu Lichun was puzzled, but he still went to answer the phone. As soon as he picked up the phone, he heard the hearty laughter of Deputy Director Nian: "Xiao Gu, I had a dream the night before... I remembered that there was also a dream in the dream. You, you are standing on the Dongfanghong tractor, holding a loudspeaker to promote our revolutionary ideas, once you propagate, the enemy all disarms and surrenders. Haha.”

Gu Lichun: "Year Bureau, your dream has profound practical significance and strong revolutionary symbolic significance. The leader once said: 'In a small world, there are a few flies hitting the wall. Buzzing, screaming, and sobbing "Back then we defeated the invincible US emperor with Xiaomi Plus, why can't we use Dongfanghong tractors to occupy the cities of decadent and declining capitalist countries today?... The year is worthy of being the descendants of the old revolution, with loyalty to the organization and The love has already been engraved in my bones, and I never forget to serve the country even in my dreams.... You are so kind to me, and you take me with you even in your dreams."

"...Nianbao, you are absolutely right to bring our five straw woven products. This is the symbol of the proletariat and the representative of the national style, showing the simplicity and down-to-earth of our country. Those foreign businessmen must think it is very exotic and Oriental colors."

"...These capitalist countries reject and slander our red socialist ideology. It is inconvenient for us to promote it on the surface, but we can infiltrate it through commodities and artworks, and we must gradually erode their ideological positions."

The two of you came and went, chatting very happily.

Deng Chang on the side: "..."

In the middle of the conversation, Deputy Director Nian suddenly asked Gu Lichun if he knew foreign languages. Gu Lichun thought about it and replied: "Foreign languages, I only learned a little bit. The Nian Bureau is right, foreign languages ​​are weapons. Deal with the enemy well. I have to study foreign languages ​​​​for the organization and the country. I firmly believe that under the guidance of the leader's thoughts, I will be able to learn something. As long as the thoughts are red, nothing is impossible. I follow the teachings of the great leader,' Make up your mind, overcome all odds, and go for victory.'”

Unknowingly, the two had chatted for half an hour, and Deng Zhang looked at his watch twice, Gu Lichun felt that it was time to end.

Of course, at the end of the phone call, Gu Lichun reluctantly expressed that he wanted to send off the deputy director general and his party, but the other party said that he didn't need to send them off and let him concentrate on his work.

Gu Lichun had no choice but to say: "Although I feel very reluctant and want to listen to the teachings of the Nianju in person, I obey the organization's arrangements, control my personal feelings, and concentrate on my work. I wish the Nianju a smooth journey."

After hanging up the phone, Gu Lichun let out a long sigh of relief.

Deng Chang looked at his watch again, and said with deep emotion: "Generally speaking, ability to speak and ability rarely appear in the same person. Gu Lichun, it's really rare for you to do it."

Gu Lichun moved: "Thank you Deng Chang for your praise and affirmation. Your appreciation is one of the driving forces for me to move forward."

Deng Chang: "..."

He said solemnly: "These words are reserved for the comrades who need them the most."

Deng Zhang remembered that there was still something serious to say, "By the way, Lao Zhu and I have recommended you to the head office to be the section chief of the agriculture and animal husbandry department. After the head office approves, you have to report to the Land Reclamation Bureau. There should be no problem there. The results should be available before the end of the month.”

Gu Lichun's voice was loud and full of emotion: "Thank you Deng Chang and Secretary Zhu for their promotion. I will definitely live up to the trust of the leaders and the organization."
