Counterattack in the chronology

Anger, humiliation, surprise, three expressions appeared alternately on the faces of Jiang Mu and Gu Jingzhe.

Gu Jingzhe felt cold all over his body, he knew that since the accident happened at home, everything has changed.The world is so cold, it is impossible for him in the past to be reduced to the point of apologizing to people like Gu Lichun.

Jiang Mu was even more angry and annoyed, who is he?Who is Gu Lichun?He is also worthy of apologizing to him?

Jiang Mu was most disappointed by these educated youths. In the past, he was the boss who responded to everyone, and he was their leader. Now, the educated youth spot has been fragmented and chaotic. Anyway, he is leaving anyway, so let them make trouble.

Jiang Mu stared at Gu Lichun for a while, then turned and left without saying a word.

Someone tried to stop Jiang Mu, Jiang Mu said coldly with a dark face: "Get out of the way!"

Gu Lichun hurriedly mediated: "Forget it, an apology requires sincerity. Since they don't have the heart, let it be. I just hope that the two of you will think more about other comrades, especially lesbians. consider."

Jiang Mu looked at Gu Jingzhe: "What are you still doing there?"

Gu Jingzhe looked at the angry faces of the crowd, and then at the smiling Gu Lichun, his heart felt uncomfortable.

He knew that he was different from Jiang Mu. Jiang Mu could leave Gu's Village and return to the city in the future. What about him?He can only stay here.His reputation in the village is completely rotten. Although he can't be called a street rat and everyone shouts and beats him, he is not bad.How glorious and proud he was before, how miserable he is now.He can no longer be an educated youth and be rejected by everyone.

Gu Jingzhe deliberated over and over again, and finally walked towards Gu Lichun slowly, and said with great difficulty: "Gu Lichun, what happened this time is my fault. I misunderstood you because I was too worried about Comrade Chen."

Gu Lichun smiled: "Gu Jingzhe, in fact, the one you should apologize the most is not me, but Comrade Chen Jie, you know, you misunderstood me as a hooligan, and if it spreads out that I have a bad reputation, the impact will not be too great. Of course, you must It’s another matter to make me a hooligan. Comrade Chen is the one who has the greatest impact. If this matter is not made clear and spread to the village, do you know how those villagers will talk about Comrade Chen?”

Gu Jingzhe gritted his teeth and said: "You are right, I will also apologize to Comrade Chen Jie later."

After finishing speaking, he turned to Chen Jie: "Comrade Chen, I'm sorry, please forgive my recklessness."

Chen Jie had no experience in accepting other people's apologies, so she was flustered. Zhang Yan was much more generous than her. She stood beside Chen Jie and said, "Gu Jingzhe, from now on, I hope you will think more about other comrades before you speak, especially We lesbians."

Others also spoke out one after another, Gu Jingzhe had never been ridiculed so much face to face, his face was red and white, and he looked extremely embarrassed.

Chen Jie's heart is soft, and she was very angry just now, but seeing Gu Jingzhe's embarrassment now, she couldn't bear it, so she said: "Since Comrade Jingzhe has realized his mistake, let's end today's matter here."

Gu Jingzhe, as if he had received an amnesty, casually added a word, and hurriedly left the educated youth spot.

Everyone gathered around, talking with each other sentence by sentence.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Mu turned back. When everyone saw it, they suddenly became quiet.

With a sneer at the corner of Jiang Mu's mouth, he walked slowly in front of Gu Lichun, stared into his eyes and said word by word: "Gu Lichun, I, Jiang Mu, am a very proud person, not everyone You deserve my apology."

Gu Lichun said in a low voice: "Comrade Jiang Mu, from your words, I can see that you have two major problems: one is that your tutor is not very good. First of all, let me explain to you about science, the apology is because of you If you make a mistake, it doesn't matter who the other party is or what status they are. Even if the other party is a beggar, you have to apologize for your mistakes, not to mention that Comrade Chen's thoughts and realm are far higher than yours; It also has a decadent taste, 'Criticism and self-criticism are the weapons of Marxism-Leninism, and my serious self-criticism is one of the distinctive signs that distinguish our party from other political parties.'”

Jiang Mu clapped and clapped: "Comrade Gu Lichun, you let me find that speaking like this is quite interesting. I hope you will continue to maintain it. By the way, I will go to Honghe Farm after the next year. I hope to have more time with Comrade Gu." comminicate."

Gu Lichun pretended not to hear the threat in his words, and said with a smile: "No need, although I am not a proud person, I have my own principles for the people I deal with, and I hope that the comrades I deal with are pure-minded. , the realm is lofty."

Jiang Mu: "..."

Everyone winked, looked at each other and smiled, and the room was full of joy.

The matter was settled, so Gu Lichun bid farewell to everyone.

He knew that today's incident made Gu Jingzhe and Jiang Mu completely separated from the educated youths, and they should not be able to cause any disturbances in the future.

After dealing with the matter of the educated youth, Gu Lichun went home.The New Year's gift he gave to his grandmother's family was still not completed. Tian Sanhong said that he would give it after the next year, and then the whole family would go together.

The plan was disrupted, and Gu Lichun didn't arrange anything else, so he stopped by Chen Yu's house.

He came to see how the three of them were recovering from their injuries.Fortunately, due to the timely medication and the cold weather, the wounds of the three of them did not deteriorate, and they should be able to recover after a period of time.

But the two elderly people were seriously ill. Chen Yu's leg was injured, and it was difficult for him to move around.

Gu Lichun and Wu Pang took a few younger brothers and sisters to help them clean the inside and outside. Gu Lichun also carried a few bundles of firewood, lit the brazier, and the fire started, and the room was somewhat hot.Lixia and Lidong also dragged over several large baskets of wheat straw and hay, which can be used for cooking and for keeping warm on the bed.

The two old men were lying on the bed, talking to Lixia Xiaoman and the others in a gentle voice, asking about their studies.

When they were busy, Chen Yu's eyes followed Gu Lichun's movements, wherever Gu Lichun went, his eyes followed like a shadow.

Gu Lichun's heart trembled when he saw him, so he said without raising his head, "Close your eyes."

Chen Yu actually closed his eyes, and Gu Lichun seemed to praise a puppy: "This is how you behave."

Chen Yu: "..."

He held back for a long time before forcing out a sentence through his teeth: "I will be fourteen after the Chinese New Year, and I will be late to grow up." He is not a child.

Gu Lichun said "Oh" very flatly, expressing that he knew.

Chen Yu suddenly remembered something, opened his eyes suddenly, and said to Gu Lichun, "Come here, I have something to say."

Gu Lichun leaned closer, and Chen Yu whispered, "The wild game I hunted is hidden in the mountains and forests, and the place is..."

Gu Lichun interrupted him: "Don't tell me, I won't take it. Also, if I don't go to take it, if someone else takes it away, I won't be able to clean it up."

Chen Yu said stubbornly: "I just let you get it, only you can get it."

Gu Lichun: "No."

Chen Yu stared at a pair of big eyes: "..."

Gu Lichun had no choice but to patiently explain to him: "It's not that I'm a noble person, it's that you are too poor now, even if you give me everything, it's still too little. You can repay me if you want, save yourself now, and in the future Maybe I can go back to Beijing, maybe I need to find you if I have something to do. At that time, you can help me without hurting my muscles and bones, and I can also get a big benefit, the best of both worlds, how wonderful."

When Chen Yu heard that he was returning to Beijing, his expression was sad: "Will there be such a day?"

Gu Lichun said firmly: "For sure, things are changing all the time. The moon has its ups and downs, and people have their peaks and troughs. Your family is in a trough. Well, do you understand what I mean?" I can't say that.

Chen Yu stared at Gu Lichun, with a glint of light flickering in those dark eyes.

Gu Lichun got up and said, "Hurry up and heal your wounds. I'll get you some food when I go home. The fried meat and croquettes are all ready. You can just cook them. If you feel bad, remember to pay me back double."

In the evening, Gu Lichun asked Lidong to go to Chen Yu's house with a basket of things.When Lidong came back, he brought a basket of things, including two dried pheasants, a wild duck, and some medicinal herbs.

Lidong said: "I don't want it, but he insists on giving it, saying it's an exchange. Otherwise, he won't feel at ease."

Gu Lichun waved his hand: "Let him go."

After that, Lidong went to deliver things twice more, each time he came back empty-handed.Gu Lichun is also used to it.

Although Gu Lichun's house lived in a remote place, they went to Chen Yu's house at night, but they were still discovered by the villagers. In addition, he was clearly helping the Chen family at the meeting, and there were rumors in the village that Gu Lichun sympathized with the "rich land The "anti-bad right" elements are too close to the Chen family.

Gu Dajiang said to Gu Lichun side-by-side: "Our family is a three-generation poor peasant with good roots. Don't be polluted by those bad elements."

Gu Lichun said coldly: "If you pollute again, how can you pollute as badly? I have lived with a person like you since I was a child, do you think I have fallen? I am upright, and I am not afraid of any ghosts and ghosts."

Gu Dajiang was so angry that he jumped his feet, "I am a monster?"

Gu Lichun reminded: "It's New Year's Eve, I'm joking with you, don't get angry at every turn."

Gu Dajiang held his breath in his chest, unable to swallow or spit it out, cursing in his mouth: "I knew I shouldn't have picked you up back then."

Xiaoman took the conversation from a distance: "Father, what you said, if you don't pick up my brother, there won't be many of us. You will die."

Li Xia also said: "If you don't pick it up, someone else will pick it up. They are richer than ours. Maybe my brother will live better."

Lidong also said: "It must be better to eat."

Gu Dajiang was so angry that he stared dryly and stared around, not knowing which one to scold.He sat there sulking by himself, while the four children happily went on to work.

As a guest, Wu Fatty is not good at participating in the Gu family's housework.When he first came here, he felt that Gu Dajiang was not bad, he was energetic and interesting.After these few days of contact, he gradually changed his original view.Brother Gu is a very unreliable father. He treats the house as a restaurant all day long, wipes his mouth when he is full, and leaves. He has nothing to do, but his mouth is not idle.Brother Gu is such a good person, but he is still not satisfied. He is nagging, which makes people lose their temper.Fortunately, Brother Gu's mother is really kind, with a good temper, good craftsmanship, and so are her siblings.

Although Wu Fat didn't like Gu Dajiang, he was polite.Burning fires, chopping materials, and tasting vegetables every day.

Tian Sanhong likes Wu Pang more and more, looking at him is almost like looking at Lidong.

Lidong is also the closest to Wu Pang. Of course his brother is also good, but he always feels a little far away from him. It is better to be Pang Brother, the two of them can talk together.

Wu Pang is now full of guilt towards Gu Lichun. He feels that he has robbed Brother Gu's mother and younger brother, and he doesn't know if Brother Gu will be jealous of him.People who are too popular are troublesome, but it's a pity that Zhao Gaoren is not here, otherwise Wu Fatty still has someone to talk to.

Wu Fat checked his words and demeanor to see if Gu Lichun was dissatisfied with him, but found that he was still the same as before, he didn't seem to realize that he had robbed him of something that belonged to him.No, how could someone as smart as Brother Gu not notice it?Could it be that he is waiting for himself to be exposed, and another big one will come?Wu Fat felt that in terms of playing tricks, even if he pierced his heart with chopsticks, he still wouldn't be able to pierce Brother Gu's heart so much.He'd better confess.

That night, after eating and drinking, Wu Pang decided to confess to Gu Lichun.

He entered Gu Lichun's room, and said frankly: "Brother Gu, my conscience has discovered that I have come to confess to you."

Gu Lichun was slightly taken aback, and his first reaction was: "What did you steal?"

Wu Fat: "...I have never eaten it secretly, I always ask for it."

Gu Lichun: "Indeed. Then what are you going to confess?"

Wu Pang gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and said honestly: "Aunt Tian is getting better and better to me recently, and Lidong is getting closer to me. I think I stole your limelight. You must be upset, but you didn't say it. Are you holding back your big move to deal with me?"

Gu Lichun: "In your eyes, who am I going to deal with when I have nothing to do?"

Wu Fat scratched his head, not knowing what to say.

Gu Lichun taught Wu Pang earnestly: "Fat, you misunderstood me very much. Come on, let me explain to you. First of all, I am very open-minded and can accommodate different people and things. Look at Zhao Gao, I I fought with him before, so he is still my friend now? I can tolerate him, let alone you? You have been with me since the beginning, and you are the core buddy of my direct line. You can completely treat my family as a Your family, treat my mother as your mother, my younger siblings as your younger siblings, and my father, if you want it, I will give it to you as a bonus."

Wu Fat shook his head: "Forget about your father, don't."

Gu Lichun continued to enlighten Wu Pang: "My mother and my younger brother like you, and I'm too happy to be happy. Why don't you be happy? This whole thing means that my mother has an extra son, my younger brother has an extra brother, and you also have an extra brother." For loved ones, the best of both worlds, right?"

Fatty Wu was persuaded, and nodded frequently. Gu Ge is smart, so he is much more transparent.

Since Wu Fat confessed to Gu Lichun, he no longer has any burden in his heart.Eat better, sleep better, only a few days, people feel half a circle fatter.Not only is he fat, but the rest of the Gu family are also fat.Especially Xiao Man and Xiao Yu have changed the most. The two little girls used to have sparse and yellow hair, and their small faces were yellow and thin. Now they have round, rosy faces, and a pair of black and bright eyes. They are very attractive.

Wu Fat opened the shackles in his heart and continued to work hard to gain weight.Gu Lichun was busy all day, he had to lead his younger siblings to clean up, and he had to write couplets.He used to practice brush calligraphy for a few years as a hobby, and he could read the calligraphy.After two days of pretentious practice, he began to formally write Spring Festival couplets.

At least six couplets had to be written, three for his family and three for the second grandma's, which were pasted on the courtyard gate, the main entrance of the main room and the kitchen door.

As for the content of the couplets, they are all common goods, such as auspicious words such as "Fortune is like the long flowing water in the East China Sea, and life is not as old as Nanshan".

However, Wu Fatty reminded him that this kind of content was not revolutionary enough. Gu Lichun thought for a while, and then added the leader's poems and revolutionary slogans. , [-] million Shenzhou is full of Shunyao." This pair was pasted on the gate.

Wu Fat applauded with a thumbs up, saying that this couplet is cultural and imposing.

He was in charge of writing, and Wu Fat and Lidong were in charge of posting.

After Gu Lichun finished writing the last three couplets, when the pen and ink were dry, he asked Lixia to send them to Second Grandma.Unexpectedly, this delivery caused trouble.

When Aunt Zuo saw that Gu Lichun could write couplets by herself, and the writing was not bad, she immediately became interested and followed Lixia to ask for couplets.

Gu Lichun could only agree, but asked her to bring her own red paper.

Aunt Zuo is more effective than the big speakers in the village. After her publicity, everyone knows that Gu Lichun can write Spring Festival couplets.

Others in the village also came to ask for couplets. Of course, most of them were embarrassed to take advantage of it and brought some things, some snacks, some eggs, and some cabbage and green onions.

In one day, Gu Lichun sent out more than 40 Spring Festival couplets. For the first dozen or so, he racked his brains and tried to write different contents. Later, he found that everyone didn’t care whether they were repeated or not, and some people even wanted to share with you. same content.In this way, Gu Lichun can also save some brains.

After sending out more than 40 couplets of Spring Festival couplets, they also received two large baskets containing all kinds of things, including onion, ginger, garlic, buns and steamed buns.

Tian Sanhong smiled and said: "My Xiaochun is capable, and someone will give gifts while sitting at home."

When Lidong saw his elder brother write a few strokes, someone gave him something to eat, and his mind became active. He also wanted to learn to write calligraphy in the future.However, he is a monkey butt and can't sit still.Lixia and Xiaoman are similar, they like to run around, only the youngest, Xiaoyu, is relatively calm.The three brothers and sisters decided to urge the little sister to practice calligraphy together, so that they could earn money every year.

After writing so many Spring Festival couplets, Gu Lichun's tired arms ached. His two younger brothers massaged him together, and his two younger sisters beat his back. Wu Pang was envious.

Tian Sanhong asked Gu Lichun: "Xiaochun, do you want our family to fry some sanzi? Take them with you when you go to the farm."

Gu Lichun thought about it for a while before he remembered what sanzi was. He had eaten it when he was a child, and it was delicious, but it was too troublesome to make and cost a lot of oil.

Before he could answer, Lidong, Lixia, Xiaoman and the others shouted in unison: "It's going to be bombed, it's going to be bombed."

Tian Sanhong gave them a blank look: "What are you shouting about, I didn't ask you, what don't you guys like to eat? You can eat stool legs."

The four children understood that their words had no weight, so they all looked at the eldest brother eagerly.

Gu Lichun's original intention was to refuse, but when he saw the pitiful appearance of his younger siblings, he asked, "Is there enough oil in the house?"

Wu Fat rushed to answer: "Use my oil." He came with oil at that time.

Tian Sanhong smiled and replied: "It's enough, let's blow it up. Our family doesn't have any good things, so you can get it as a gift."

The fried noodles have to be kneaded in advance. After the noodles wake up, the noodles have to be twisted into thin strips, placed in a basin in circles, and then poured with oil to soak them. When the oil soaks the noodles, put them on the chopping board. Thin strips rolled into thinner round strips.The process is very cumbersome, one person is too busy, at least two people are needed.When I heard that Tian Sanhong was going to fry the sanzi, the second grandma offered to help. She also offered five catties of noodles and two catties of oil to fry together.

Wu Fat was very excited. He helped before and after running. He had eaten before, but he hadn't seen anyone do it for a long time.

Gu Lichun can also help. He is mainly responsible for turning the sanzi in the oil pan with two long chopsticks. This is a test of both physical strength and eyesight. Golden and golden, it will not be crispy or fragrant if it is early, and it will not be too hot if it is too late.

This kind of tossing took a long time, and the four of them were enough, but when they saw the dustpans on the table, they felt it was worth it.

When they were working, the four children were watching from the side, helping out a little from time to time, picking up some scum to eat, clucking, clucking, all of them looked like cats who had stolen fish, with extremely satisfied expressions.Not to mention Wu Fat, his mouth has never been idle.

Since everyone was too tired, dinner was casual. Tian Sanhong threw a few pieces of crispy meat into the pot and stewed a large pot of radish and cabbage. The staple food was Erhe noodles steamed buns.

After the meal, Tian Sanhong gave her the share of the second grandma's sanzi and asked her to take it away, and by the way, mentioned to her about coming to the New Year's Eve dinner next year.The second grandma agreed with a smile.

The next day is New Year's Eve, the focus of the New Year's Eve dinner is dinner, and the lunch is simple.

Just after lunch, Tian Sanhong started preparing for the New Year's Eve dinner.

Lixia and Lidong were full of excitement. During the Chinese New Year, apart from looking forward to eating delicious food, they set off and picked up firecrackers.

The family also bought firecrackers this year, two strings of small firecrackers that looked like red peppers, and a few Erleizi.The two were gearing up to set off firecrackers at night, but Gu Lichun poured cold water on them: "Here are a few small firecrackers for you to play with, big ones are not acceptable, they are dangerous. Be careful when picking up firecrackers, first poke them with a stick to make sure it's safe." Pick it up again." It is impossible to prevent them from picking it up at all, so he can only teach them as much safety knowledge as possible.

The two stuck out their tongues mischievously and made faces.

Wu Fat asked: "Then I can always fire the cannon?"

Gu Lichun: "Okay, I'll give you my share, and you and my father can let it go." Since he was a child, he prefers to be quiet and not noisy.However, there are only two days in a year, and he will not spoil everyone's happiness.

After working all afternoon, their New Year's Eve dinner started before it was dark.

The author has something to say: Happy New Year.There are a lot of things during the Chinese New Year, and my saved manuscripts are exhausted. I have exhausted my strength to keep writing and posting now. I hope everyone will understand, group.
