Counterattack in the chronology

When Gu Lichun arrived at the courtyard where the labor reform team was located, the staff of the camp office had already left.Unsurprisingly, there were not many strong and strong people in this batch of reform-through-labour prisoners, and most of them were old, weak and sick.

Gu Lichun looked around, but did not see Chen Yu's family, and asked, "Is everyone here? That's all?"

Zhao Gao's brother, Zhao Jianli, said: "There are three more, two old and one young, who were carried into the dormitory as soon as they arrived. Brother Gu, do you think it's embarrassing for these people? We send the sick and weak to us."

Gu Lichun said nonchalantly: "Our employees in the five workshops are thoughtful and have a high level of awareness, and they share the worries and problems of the workshop."

Zhao Jianli smiled bitterly and said, "Yes, we are highly enlightened."

Gu Lichun walked into the men's dormitory, and saw that Chen Yu was lying on the bed, his complexion was even uglier than last time, and his spirit was like gossamer, while Grandpa Chen was lying on another bed, his complexion was also extremely bad.

Chen Ping and Lu Jingjing were guarding Chen Yu, their eyes were red, as if they had just cried.

As soon as Lu Jingjing saw Gu Lichun, she whispered in a sobbing voice, "Brother Gu, Xiaoyu is about to die."

Chen Ping pulled Lu Jingjing and motioned her not to speak.Lu Jingjing quickly shut up, but shed tears silently.

Gu Lichun called Meng Nianqun and said, "Go and cook some easy-to-digest porridge for the patient."

Meng Nianqun ran out.

Ten minutes later, he came over with a bowl of brown sugar porridge. Chen Ping took the bowl and said gratefully to the two, "Thank you, Chief Gu and Xiao Meng."

She softly called Chen Yu's name, and when Chen Yu slowly woke up, she picked up a spoon and fed him porridge one spoon at a time.

Gu Lichun noticed that Chen Yu had lost a lot of weight compared to the previous few days, his eyes appeared bigger, his chin was sharper, and his face was pale and blue.This guy acted a little too much, isn't he afraid of physical problems?

Seeing that Chen Yu woke up, Gu Lichun said in a business-like tone: "Your name is Chen Yu, right? You can't go to work for the time being due to your physical condition. Fortunately, it's slack season. I'll give you a few more days off. You should hurry up and rest. After resting, I will arrange a job for you. In the future, you must reform and be a new person."

Chen Yu suppressed a smile, and replied pretending to be respectful: "Okay, Section Chief Gu, when my body recovers, I will definitely work hard and reform myself."

Gu Lichun went to see a few other people, and said worriedly: "How can such a body work? Xiaomeng, let me make an exception for you. You are responsible for cooking meals for these sick people these days. Everyone Take advantage of the slack time to take good care of your health, and no one will lose the chain after spring sowing and plowing after the new year."

Others are used to it, and the newcomers are surprised to hear that they have holidays and sick meals.

Gu Lichun ignored them and left after giving his orders.

As soon as Gu Lichun left, the other people in the dormitory actively and consciously avoided, leaving space for Chen Ping and Chen Yu's family to talk.

As soon as everyone left, Chen Ping couldn't hold back any longer, tears welled up in his eyes, and he couldn't help crying: "Dad, Xiao Yu, I look forward to seeing you every day, but I didn't expect to see you here."

Grandpa Chen was also in tears, and Lu Jingjing cried even harder.

Chen Yu first wiped away tears for his aunt, then grandpa, and finally persuaded helplessly, "It's okay, don't cry. Our family is finally reunited, so we should all be happier."

Grandpa Chen was worried about his wife and wanted to go to the women's dormitory, but felt it was inconvenient, so he urged Chen Ping to go back and have a look.

Chen Ping said: "I just gave my mother some medicine, and she fell asleep."

Grandma Chen's condition worsened after Chen Yu was taken away, and she was escorted all the way to the farm. She was exhausted, and after seeing her daughter and granddaughter, she was agitated and cried again. She couldn't bear it anymore and fell asleep.

Meng Nianqun was instructed by Gu Lichun to carefully prepare sick meals for these sick people every day. There are new dishes every day, such as vegetable porridge, lean meat porridge, fish porridge, and bone soup noodles. Not only the patients can eat, but other people can follow suit Take a share.

Chen Yu wasn't sick at all, he was just hungry, and he was young and had a strong recovery ability, so he could recover more than half of it once he had a full meal.

Because of Chen Ping's relationship, everyone took great care of Chen Yu's family.Lao Yuan, Meng Shijing and Professor Lin in the same dormitory are also very friendly to Grandpa Chen.

Old man Luo thought that Chen Yu's family were newcomers, so he enthusiastically gave them extra lessons.In the past, everyone was on guard against each other and dared not speak too much.Since coming to Wuchang, the environment has been relaxed and the management has been humanized. Those activists who love to expose and report have no use for them. Everyone's mood has also relaxed, and they chat and have fun from time to time.

Old man Luo said to Grandpa Chen: "Old Chen, you are lucky. You will be divided into five games as soon as you come. If you go to other games, your body may not be able to survive."

Chen Yu pretended not to know, and deliberately asked loudly: "Uncle Luo, is this five-point game really good?"

When Lao Luo heard this question, he couldn't help being a little angry: "You kid, you just look smart. Haven't you felt it in the past two days since you came here? Section Chief Gu didn't let you go to work, and asked Xiaomeng to give it to you." You prepare sick meals and put them in other places, who cares about your life? As long as you have breath, you have to work."

Chen Yu continued to ask blankly: "Is Section Chief Gu that nice? You all seem to respect him?"

The old man Luo continued to tell Chen Yu that Gu Lichun was good: "There is nothing to say about Gu Lichun, he is smart and kind-hearted. I heard that his nickname is Gu Xiaodao. If anyone provokes him, he will just shake him." Knife. But I think he should be called Gu Chunfeng, to dispel the cold and make people feel like a spring breeze."

Chen Yu lowered his eyes and listened earnestly, with a smile on the corner of his mouth. He didn't know why, but he was happier to hear others praise Gu Lichun than to praise himself. Anyway, I really like to hear it.

Chen Yu and old man Luo, one loves to talk and the other loves to listen, and the two soon became friends.One of the two kept asking questions, and the other answered questions loudly, which became a spectacle in the dormitory.

Why didn't Chen Yu ask other people, but specifically old man Luo?Because he found that other people in the dormitory were very restrained, not as enthusiastic as old man Luo.In fact, old man Luo was just lonely. After all, his hearing was not good, and it was difficult to chat with him. After a long time, everyone didn't like to chat with him. Now that Chen Yu came, it was very good.

After everyone got acquainted with each other, Chen Yu also wanted to get close to Meng Anjing, but Meng Anjing was very alert to Chen Yu's approach, and never said much, especially when it came to Gu Lichun, he was very cautious.

Chen Yu rubbed his forehead and sighed, probably because he was always trying to ask old man Luo about Gu Lichun's news in different ways, which aroused Meng Anjing's vigilance.

He had to restrain his behavior, and when he recovered, he started to get close with Sun Houyu and Zhao Jianli again. Both of them knew that Chen Yu was Gu Lichun's friend, and they took extra care of him.

In addition, Chen Yu, Zhao Gao, Wu Pang and others have known each other for a long time, and he quickly got along in the five games like a duck to water.He is also good at inquiring about news, within a few days, he has collected a lot of information about Gu Lichun, and he also has a good understanding of his current situation.

His work has not yet been arranged, but he has already started to do odd jobs in the pig farm and the cooking team.

And he did a great job right away.It was he who discovered the clue in the pig food. Everyone checked carefully and couldn't help being shocked. It turned out that someone put a nail in the pig food. If the pigs accidentally swallowed it, they would be in big trouble.

This incident attracted the attention of everyone, and it was reported to Gu Lichun soon.

As the first person to find out about this, Chen Yu was also called in for questioning.

As soon as Chen Yu came in, he couldn't help sighing: "You seem to be doing well on the farm, but there are many crises behind you, and you don't have many smart helpers around you."

Gu Lichun didn't follow what he said, and asked directly: "How did you find out that there was a problem with the pig food? Did you find anyone suspicious?"

Chen Yu shook his head: "I didn't find any suspicious people. Xiaokang Xiaosun and the others said that you pay special attention to the safety of the pig farm recently, so I will help you check and check. However, I don't think you can do this. There are thousands of thieves, There is no one who can guard against thieves for a thousand days."

Gu Lichun said: "I also understand this truth, but the evidence is not enough, I have already made arrangements."

Chen Yu hurriedly said: "Of course I believe you have arrangements. I have a mature suggestion. I wonder if you would like to listen to it?"

Gu Lichun: "... I would like to hear the details."

Chen Yu and Gu Lichun analyzed one by one: "Although I have not been here for five games, I have already inquired about it in many ways. I already have a general understanding of your affairs and current situation. I think you have too many things at hand. , This will tire you out. I suggest you share some of it with me. I am better than you at dealing with people like this."

Gu Lichun agrees with this statement.At that time, when he approached Chen Yu, he had taken a fancy to him as a villain.

After he thought about it carefully, Chen Yu was right in one thing, he really had too many things at hand.

Especially once Deng Chang left, the workload of the five games also fell on him, the farm, the family, and this group of opponents.It would be great if there is a reliable person to help him share it.

Chen Yu is his ally, he has means and brains, and he is completely competent.

As soon as Gu Lichun thought about it, his heart suddenly brightened, and he said, "Come here, I'll show you something." As he spoke, he showed Chen Yu the information he had collected about those members of the Revolutionary Committee.

While watching, Chen Yu picked up a pen to take notes: "You have collected all the evidence, so it's not enough?"

Gu Lichun said: "It's really not enough. For example, the cellar where Team Leader Li hides things has not been found yet."

Chen Yu said: "This question is not difficult for you, so you can leave it to me to try."

The two quickly reached a consensus, and Gu Lichun waved his hands: "Okay, the conversation is over, you can go back."

Chen Yu dawdled, and took out a bunch of keys from his pocket, "This is the key to your house. I packed it up in advance, and your house will remain as it is."

Gu Lichun took the key and put it on the table casually.

That night, Gu Lichun privately introduced Chen Yu to the blonde Wang Tie and asked them to cooperate with each other.Jinfa and Wang Tie didn't understand why Brother Gu valued Chen Yu so much. There was nothing special about this guy other than his good looks. Although they were dissatisfied in their hearts, they obeyed Gu Lichun and dared not say anything on the surface.

Chen Yu asked Wang Tie: "Where is the cellar going?"

Wang Tie replied patiently: "The place where we locked Team Leader Li's possessions should be in Shanghe Village, but we searched everywhere we could, but we couldn't find them."

Chen Yu thought for a while and said: "So, Jinfa, you go to make a small report to Team Leader Li at night, saying that someone dug up an antique near that village, and ask Team Leader Li if you want to send someone to watch it? I'll find you a fake thing as a prop in a while. Team leader Li will definitely be worried that what he hid will be exposed. He should take the time to check the situation. Our people are hiding around. In this way, won't there be clues? "

Wang Tie asked suspiciously: "What if Team Leader Li doesn't check?"

Chen Yu said firmly: "He will definitely go to check, sooner or later. You don't have to worry about this. By the way, can you get me out of the farm? If possible, I will go and guard with you."

Of course Jinfa and Wang Tie have a way to get Chen Yu out.Because Wuchang needs to dig a canal to divert water from the Blue River to the farm, and needs to survey the route. This is an excellent reason. In addition, it is Uncle Lu who guards the south gate, so he will turn a blind eye. Do not interfere with their actions.

Chen Yu followed Jinfa and Wang Tie and went out at night with dry food, hiding near Shanghe Village and waiting for rabbits.

Here, Zhao Zhijun and Tian Sanhong wrote out the letter of introduction to go out, exchanged food stamps, and when everything was ready, they invited Deng Chang and Uncle Lu to have dinner together.

Deng Chang arrived first, wearing the military overcoat he often wears in winter, wandering around the pig farm with his hands behind his back, scaring all the workers.

When Deng Chang came to the simple cafeteria of the cooking class, he couldn't help but take a second look.The house is really simple. It is a log house built of wood. There are two rooms in total, and the shape is quite unique.The rooms are bright and spacious.The outer one is a dining hall. There are five rows of tables and chairs in the center of the room, which can accommodate dozens of people for dinner at the same time.

The one inside is the kitchen, separated by a bamboo curtain. When the curtain is opened, you can see the furnishings inside at a glance: two long chopping boards are placed against the wall, various kitchen utensils are hung on the wall, and a row of furniture is built on the ground. There are a few pots and stoves, large, medium and small.There are also a few tin stoves, and the room is steaming and warm as spring.

Deng Chang asked, "When was this house built?"

Gu Lichun replied: "Recently, the workers on the pig farm used leftover materials from building houses to build it."

In the past, there was no canteen on the pig farm, but because of the special nature of the pig raising work, there were several large pots in the yard.After Gu Lichun came to the pig farm, he cooked with Wu Fat and Zhao Gao. Gradually, some people followed suit and began to cook by themselves. After Chen Jie, Meng Nianqun and other good cooks joined, a cooking business Class, they are voluntary labor, there is no extra wages, at most everyone compensates them with a little food coupons and the like.

Since they came, the workers in the pig farm seldom go to the cafeteria to eat, and they directly hand over the food stamps to Chen Jie and Meng Nianqun. They eat three meals a day in the cooking class. Whoever wants to improve their lives can prepare things by themselves and ask the chef to help them. .

At first, the cooking class was not standardized at all. With the arrival of educated youths, more and more young people came to eat. The kitchen and dining hall were obviously not enough, so everyone discussed to build a house together. This is a small cafeteria built by the employees. The farm did not allocate funds, so they could only use local materials, borrowed the east wind from the infrastructure department to build houses, went to the forest farm to pull some firewood, and built two wooden houses with beatings.

Deng Chang was asking questions, Uncle Lu and Zhao Zhijun came in together, and Second Mistress was also pushed here by Zhao Zhijun on a bicycle.Four kids and seven kids.

The children were a little afraid of Deng Chang and hid far away.Only Xiao Man was not afraid. Not only was she not afraid, but she even moved a small bench and sat nearby to listen to their conversation carefully. Needless to say, she was learning from the cadres.

They want to eat ground pot chicken, and the place to eat is directly arranged in the kitchen.Everyone was divided into two tables, Tian Sanhong and the children sat at one table, Gu Lichun Deng Changlu and the others sat at the table.In the cold weather, it is very comfortable for everyone to sit around the warm pot and stove.

Chen Jie and Meng Nianqun are the chefs, and Sun Houyu is the assistant cook.

Tian Sanhong and Second Mistress wanted to help, but Chen Jie forced them to sit down: "The four of us are chefs today, no one is allowed to grab. Besides, Brother Gu has given enough food stamps and rewards."

Second Mistress smiled and replied: "Okay, I will follow your arrangement. Xiao Chen, you look much more energetic than before."

Chen Jie smiled generously, chatted with them a few words, turned around and went back to work.

Second Mistress looked at Chen Jie's figure. This girl is generous, cheerful and diligent, very attractive.She glanced at Gu Lichun again, feeling a little regretful, the age gap between the two was a bit big, but it was not impossible.Second Mistress suppressed her thoughts, planning to ask questions later.

Second Mistress was thinking about it when she raised her eyes and saw Chen Yu who was serving the dishes.The adults and children of the Gu family had already received Gu Lichun's instructions, and when they saw Chen Yu, they didn't seem particularly familiar with him.

When Chen Yu passed by them, he just smiled at them politely and went to work on the stove.

It was the first time Deng Chang saw Chen Yu, and he only knew that he was new here, so he gave him a casual look without asking any further questions.

While Chen Yu was working, he pricked up his ears to listen to their conversation, and he felt something different when he listened.

This Deng Chang regards Gu Lichun very highly, very highly.He couldn't help but observe Deng Chang secretly. Although Chen Yu concealed it well, he was still noticed by Deng Chang. Deng Chang glanced at him, and Chen Yu pretended to be frightened, and hurriedly lowered his head and worked obediently and quietly.

After a while, the chicken was cooked, and when the lid was lifted, a burst of hot water vapor permeated the air, followed by the smell of chicken.

The potato, mushroom and cabbage vermicelli in the pot fully absorbed the aroma of the chicken, the potatoes were soft and glutinous, the mushrooms were fragrant and tender, and the vermicelli was chewy and smooth.The pancakes are baked in another pan, because they are not soaked in water vapor, so they taste more crispy and crispy.

This box of chicken is enjoying itself, and there is a large plate of grilled fish with a good color and strong aroma.The children couldn't help cheering.

"The grilled fish is delicious."

"It would be nice if I ate it every day."

Children, you discuss with me sentence by sentence.

Deng Chang only felt a buzzing in his ears, and he glanced at it from the corner of his eye. There are seven children in the three families, and there will be eight next year.

With so many delicious foods, wine is indispensable, including rice wine and white wine.Gu Lichun only drank rice wine, while Zhao Zhijun and Deng Chang opened a bottle of Zhuyeqing.

Deng Chang took the initiative to invite: "Xiao Gu, you drink together too, and I'll see which of the three of us will fall down first."

Gu Lichun: "..." What kind of hobby is this?

He thanked Bumin: "I don't hold a lot of alcohol, and I pour it down as soon as I drink it. You can drink it."

Zhao Zhijun spoke for him from the side: "Don't let him drink it, it will affect his growth."

Deng Chang had no choice but to nod: "All right, he is very obsessed with being tall."

Deng Chang concentrated on drinking with Zhao Zhijun, and when the two drank, they talked more obviously.

Zhao Zhijun looked at the table of children, and then at the one in Tian Sanhong's stomach, and said complacently, "Old Deng, 'It's better to retreat and make a net', you have to hurry up."

Deng Chang lowered his head and took a sip of his wine, listening to the noise buzzing in his ears. To be honest, he didn't envy Zhao Zhijun at all.It's not right, I'm still a little envious. After all, it's not right to have a son like Xiao Gu in the family. He doesn't want to have a son like Gu Lichun. Anyway, his emotions are very complicated.

This time it was a special session for Zhao Zhijun and Deng Chang. Both of them played on an empty stomach, and it seemed that Deng Chang was obviously better.

One bottle of wine was not enough to make the two of them fall down. They had to open another bottle, but Uncle Lu put the wine away.

Uncle Lu said with a disgusted tone: "You can't drink it just by looking at it. How can you drink it so well? Isn't it a waste of good wine? You have to drink it in a small cup and savor it carefully."

Gu Lichun felt that Uncle Lu was the one who suited his temper best, so they chatted and watched their jokes.

Both Deng Chang and Zhao Zhijun were half-drunk, and they spoke more freely than usual.

Deng Chang glared at Zhao Zhijun and said, "Help me bring something to Zhirong so that he can come back when he has time. He hasn't been back for several years." Zhao Zhirong is Zhao Zhijun's younger brother and Deng Chang's classmate.

Zhao Zhijun said, "I will definitely take what you say."

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Gu Lichun took advantage of Meng Nianqun's serving and said to him, "Thank you for your hard work, let's go eat quickly."

Meng Nianqun smiled and said, "Don't worry, our cook won't be hungry."

As soon as Meng Nianqun went down, Chen Yu brought up another pot of sweet soup, and the children cheered again.After serving the soup, Chen Yu specially served Gu Lichun another bowl, and said in a low voice, "Taste it, I made it."

Gu Lichun took a sip and praised: "It's delicious, you have potential, study hard."

Chen Yu smiled brightly. He wanted to stay by Gu Lichun's side for a while, but there were other people on the table, especially that Deng Chang with sharp eyes, so Chen Yu had no choice but to retreat calmly.

After dinner, Uncle Lu pushed his bicycle to send Second Mistress back, Li Xia and Zhao Mingguang supported Zhao Zhijun, and Gu Lichun went to see Deng Chang.

Last time, both of them were half-drunk and couldn't control their mouths before throwing razor blades at each other. This time, Gu Lichun was sober, and the two of them were peaceful along the way.

Almost at home, Deng Zhang stopped suddenly, looked at Gu Lichun and said, "What's the name of the new one today?"

Gu Lichun asked calmly, "Are you talking about Chen Yu?"

Deng Chang nodded: "Yes, that's him. I think he's a bit evil, so keep an eye on him."

Gu Lichun had no choice but to agree: "Okay, I will pay attention."

Deng Chang added: "Be careful not to be corrupted by him."

Gu Lichun couldn't help but said: "Deng Chang, I'll follow your footsteps closely. The revolutionary will is strong. If you don't want to be strong, you can't be corrupted by ordinary people."

Deng Chang said quietly: "That's not necessarily the case, even I'm about to be corrupted." After speaking, he turned around and strode away.

Gu Lichun was in a daze, Deng Dadao was Deng Dadao, and he was ashamed of his reputation for not killing people.

Deng Chang set off for the county with Zhao Zhijun and Tian Sanhong the next day. Gu Lichun originally planned to give him something, but when he thought of what he said, he gave up, lest people feel that he was corrupted.However, what he didn't expect, just because he didn't give it away doesn't mean his mother won't give it away.

When the two parties parted from the train, Tian Sanhong gave Deng Zhang one-third of the food.

Deng Chang accepted it readily, and said politely: "Little Gu is very thoughtful, you have raised a good son."

It's hard for Tian Sanhong to say, she gave it herself, and Li Chun didn't mention it, so she could only laugh without saying a word.
