Counterattack in the chronology

Before Gu Lichun could answer, Wu Pang said first: "For those who are celebrating Chinese New Year, who likes to hear bad news, you just say good things."

Zhao Gao first unloaded the bicycle and handed it to Lidong Lixia. He cleared his throat and patted the bicycle seat: "Then let's talk about it first. How about this bicycle?"

It was only then that the two noticed that the bicycle Zhao Gao was riding was not the original one. Gu Lichun asked, "Is this the second-hand bicycle you bought for me?"

Zhao Gao said with a smile: "Brother Gu is smart, you can tell at a glance. Then guess how much this car is worth?"

Wu Fat walked around the bicycle, looked at it for a while, and gave an appraisal: "This bike is really broken. It's not as good as mine, and it's only worth 20 yuan."

Zhao Gao's face turned black with anger, Gu Lichun hurriedly said: "Wu Fat, I repaired your car, and I didn't have this new car before repairing it. This car costs at least 40 yuan."

Zhao Gao heaved a sigh of relief in his heart, and he didn't hold back anymore, and directly quoted the price: "Brother Gu, you guessed it was too high. The price of this car is 32, and I bargained for [-]. How about it? Is it suitable?"

Gu Lichun showed a hint of surprise: "You really know how to bargain. I thought it would be at least 40 yuan."

Zhao Gao proudly pushed the bicycle to Gu Lichun: "The owner sold it years ago and was in a hurry to spend the money. I was afraid that someone else would buy it, so I decided to buy it for you first."

Gu Lichun handed the bicycle to Lidong, and asked him and Lixia to scrub the bike.The two of them are familiar with the road, plus it is their own car, needless to say the excitement and meticulousness.

Gu Lichun patted Zhao Gao on the shoulder heavily: "You are really a good buddy of mine, what's the matter, have you run out of the small treasury? I will pay you back next month."

Zhao Gao shook his head: "Don't worry, I don't need the money for the time being, you pay it back slowly. Anyway, your salary will be higher after you become a regular."

Gu Lichun heard that there was something in his words, so he asked: "Is there any new progress in my becoming a regular?"

Zhao Gao said with a smile: "This is the second good news I want to tell you. But let me tell you first, I just heard it, and I haven't got a definite letter yet. Anyway, my mother said, I definitely can't run away. In the past, our farm employees had to go through the evaluation of the masses and cadres in the field, and then report to the higher level. When you were evaluated, no one else said anything. Sister Bai, Liang Ke, and the others must have agreed. In the end, Li Kuan’s father Mom and the relatives of the Wang family jumped out to object, and Deng Zhang gave them a hard lesson, saying that they were avenging their own personal revenge, and taught them a lesson. Anyway, the final review passed and the report was also typed. I guess the notification will be issued in the next year Time to come down."

Gu Lichun nodded, this matter finally came to an end.

Wu Pang seemed happier than Gu Lichun himself, and he was about to tell Aunt Tian and the others, but Gu Lichun stopped him: "The matter has not been settled yet, so don't shout, lest hope be lost." Wu Pang had no choice but to hold back.

Now that the good news is over, it's time to talk about the bad.Gu Lichun glanced at Zhao Gao, and Zhao Gao said with a little embarrassment: "Although the bad news about the New Year's Eve is unpleasant, but you will know sooner or later, I'll tell you first, so that you have a clue in your heart."

Gu Lichun said: "It's okay, I'm mentally prepared, just tell me."

Before Zhao Gao said, he added about the results of Li Kuan and Wang Xiao: "One of these two people was assigned to build a reservoir fifty miles away, and the other went to build a road. will dance in front of us."

Gu Lichun nodded, not surprised by the results of the two of them.

"But," Zhao Tong sighed and continued, "Li Kuan's family and Wang's family have been on the farm for many years, and they have many relatives and friends. Li Kuan's grandfather's comrade-in-arms' son, Chief Qian, is in the production department of the fourth branch. I also spoke for Li Kuan, and I heard that Deng Zhang and the others ignored him, and Section Chief Qian was very dissatisfied. You should pay attention to this person in the future."

Wu Fat interjected: "The Poqian Section Chief is in the fourth round, not our fifth round. I'm afraid he's a bird."

Gu Lichun said: "I will pay attention to your reminder. What about the Wang family?"

Zhao Gao scratched his head: "This is the most troublesome thing. You know that our farm has a party committee?"

Gu Lichun nodded: "I know, the party secretary is in charge of our field now."

Zhao Gao went on to say: "There is a party committee in the main venue, and there are also other branch venues. Our venue doesn't have one, but this year we have one. Two people from the party committee came to the venue. One of them was surnamed Wang, Wang Xiao's distant uncle. It’s from a distant house, but after all, his surname is Wang, so I’m afraid he’ll cause trouble for you.”

Wu Fat shouted: "It's over, the people in the party committee are not easy to mess with. They are full of great truths, and they can teach people a lesson, and they can stay the same for three days and three nights."

Gu Lichun thought about it. In order to strengthen the unified leadership of the party, the state-owned farms of this era are under the responsibility system of the party secretary.Once the party committee comes, it is estimated that Deng Chang's life will be even more difficult in the future.

Gu Lichun then asked Zhao Gao: "How much do you know about the temperament and ability of these two people?"

Zhao Gao frowned, and sighed: "I really don't know much. They all like to sullen and teach others. Once they find you, they will definitely teach you ideological education. We usually hide Looking at them, who would dare to go up to them? I don't know Director Zhu among the two, but I heard that he is very strict and stubborn. Everyone privately said that Wang Xiao's uncle is a shameful person. Their royal family is not tall, so they use it for their long-term eyes."

Wu Fat murmured: "But Wang Xiaoguang has a heart, and he has never been as good as Gu Ge."

Zhao Gao looked down on Wu Fat very much, "Of course Wang Xiao can't compare with Gu Ge, but Wang Xiao's uncle is different. He is older, has a high position, and has experience. He must be difficult to deal with. You should be more careful in the future." .”

Wu Fatty was not convinced: "After Brother Gu becomes a full-time employee, he will be a regular worker, and he cannot be dismissed casually."

Zhao Gao didn't know what to say: "If you don't get fired, you'll be fine? If people want to punish you, they have a lot of means. Besides, Brother Gu is different from the two of us. He is a person who does big things and needs to be reused by the leaders. He will do it in the future. Whatever happens, someone will always get in the way, what a hassle."

Wu Fat didn't say a word, it's too difficult to be a capable person, it's better that he is like this.

Gu Lichun saw that the two partners were worried about him, so he smiled and comforted them: "It's okay, it's good to have an opponent, how can I rise quickly without stones to step on?" Zhao Gao didn't know the two of them well enough. In-depth, this is also normal.After he returned to the farm, he first got to know his opponent's character and past in depth. Different people have different countermeasures.

The three chatted for a while, Lidong ran in and said that the bicycle was cleaned.Gu Lichun went to check and found that the car was [-]% new, the big parts were intact, and some small parts needed to be replaced, which was not a problem for him.Thanks to everyone's efforts, the bicycle has gradually changed its appearance, and it looks [-]% new.After they repaired the car, Tian Sanhong also came back from the outside. She greeted Zhao Gao warmly. When she heard that Zhao Gao bought a second-hand bicycle for their family, Tian Sanhong was excited and surprised.They have bicycles and sewing machines, why is it like a dream?

Tian Sanhong hurried to get the sewing basket, looking for cloth and cotton to sew seat cushions for the bicycle.Gu Lichun tied the two identical bamboo baskets that his uncle gave him to the back of his bicycle. There were too many things to bring back to the farm tomorrow.

He thought that he was on the farm all day, and there were not many opportunities to ride a bicycle, so he said: "Mother, let Lixia go to the farm with me tomorrow, send me there, and he will come back by bicycle. You can ride the bicycle at home." , let them pick me up during the holiday."

Tian Sanhong hesitated: "Is this okay? Didn't Lixia say that your farm is so big, wouldn't it be more convenient for you to have a car? We can do whatever we want at home. Didn't we live without a bicycle before?"

Zhao Gao also said: "Brother Gu, I think Aunt Tian is right, our farm is too big, you can't go out just by walking."

Wu Fat said: "It's okay, you can do whatever you want, at worst, you can ride mine, anyway, I'm fine."

Tian Sanhong smiled and said, "I can't always ride on you."

Wu Fatty smiled innocently: "If you're embarrassed, just give me something to eat."

Everyone: "..."

Tian Sanhong smiled and said: "Even if Lichun doesn't ride your car, my aunt will give you food. It's not easy for your child to live under the hands of the stepmother. I guess you often suffered from hunger when you were young."

Zhao Gao opened his mouth in surprise. He looked at Wu Fatty with a puzzled look on his face: This guy was hungry when he was a child?Why hasn't he heard of it?Impossible, this guy has never lost weight since he was a child.

Wu Pang climbed up the pole, showing a pitiful face in front of Tian Sanhong: "I have been hungry for a long time. For several years, I haven't gained much meat."

Zhao Gao finally couldn't bear it anymore, and mercilessly exposed him: "You are not growing, it's because you are growing."

Wu Fat hated Zhao Gao's behavior of betraying his friends very much, and gave him a look: "But you grow fat and flesh at the same time."

Zhao Gao didn't want to talk anymore.

The matter of the bicycle was decided for the time being. Gu Lichun promised to subsidize delicious food for Wu Pang, and he would still ride his bicycle in the future, and let Lidong and Lixia go to the farm to pick him up during the holidays.

Not only that, but Gu Lichun also proposed to teach Tian Sanhong to ride a bicycle. Tian Sanhong said embarrassedly: "Can I learn it well at my age?"

Gu Lichun smiled and said: "Mother, you are not yet forty, you are still young. As long as you want to learn, you will definitely be able to learn it."

Both Wu Fatty and Zhao Gao said that they were supporting her, Lidong Lixia Xiaoman and the others also wanted Tian Sanhong to learn how to ride a bicycle. Once she learned how to ride a bicycle, she would be able to go to grandma's house often, and it would be convenient to go to the town market.

Tian Sanhong nodded in the anticipation of everyone: "Okay, I will learn, and I will learn after eating."

After Tian Sanhong finished speaking, she hurried to prepare lunch. Zhao Gao was a guest, so the meal should be richer.

Braised cabbage vermicelli with pork, spicy tofu, spicy rabbit head, hot and sour soup and several vegetarian dishes.

Needless to say, Zhao Gao had eaten the other dishes last time he came here, but he had never tried the spicy tofu and spicy rabbit head. He ate it this time and liked it so much that he almost ate his tongue.

Wu Fat and Zhao Gao ate profusely, and continued to eat while sucking on the spicy food.

Zhao Gao said: "Aunt Tian, ​​you also made the chili sauce in your house? It tastes really authentic."

Wu Fat hurriedly replied, "It wasn't Aunt Tian who did it, it was Grandma who did it."

Tian Sanhong smiled and said: "If you like it, bring a can with you before you leave. Your grandma brought a big jar." The two were overjoyed.

After eating and resting for a while, Tian Sanhong was going to learn how to ride a bicycle.Originally, I learned best at the threshing ground at the entrance of the village. Not to mention the spaciousness there, the road is also flat.But Tian Sanhong was afraid of being treated like a monkey, so she decided to learn at her own doorstep.

But she was wrong. If she didn't go, it didn't mean others wouldn't come.After a while, a large group of people surrounded the door of Gu's house, and some of them came out with bowls, watching while eating.

After a while, many people knew that this bicycle belonged to Gu Lichun's family.

Everyone was talking about it.

"Lichun is quite patient. He has only been to the farm for a long time. He has a sewing machine and a bicycle." Everyone showed envious looks.

Gu Dahe's daughter-in-law, Du Fengxian, curled her lips in disdain and said, "What's so good about this, my family has it a few years ago."

The villagers didn't bother to talk to this show-off, so they said in a nonchalant manner: "Yes, your family is capable, who doesn't know that your natal family is from the town."

Du Fengxian felt uncomfortable being choked, but it was hard to refute, after all, he didn't say anything harsh on the surface.

Everyone ignored Du Fengxian and continued to chat.

Du Fengxian was upset, so she began to mock Tian Sanhong: "At this age, I'm still learning to ride a bicycle, it's embarrassing."

Xiaoman just heard her words, and Xiaoman blushed with anger, and directly choked Du Fengxian: "My mother is not yet forty, she is young. Why is it ashamed to learn to ride a bicycle? Are you born knowing how to ride a bicycle? "

Du Fengxian shouted in a sharp voice: "Xiao Man, what are you talking about, kid? This is how you treat your elders? How did your mother teach you?"

Xiaoman was not weak at all, raised his head, and responded crisply: "You ask me what I am talking about? Why don't you ask yourself what I am talking about? My mother is your sister-in-law, older than you. This is how you treat her sister-in-law? Is that what your mother taught you?"

Du Fengxian was so angry that she wanted to get foreign help, so she said to the crowd: "Listen to what she said? Is it plausible?"

There were so many people, none of them stood by her side, and someone persuaded: "The third family, what do you care about as an adult with children?"

"That's right, why is it embarrassing for Sanhong to learn a bicycle? It's not like he's still learning."

……

The commotion here is getting bigger and bigger, Gu Lichun and Lixia also know about it.

The three brothers hurried over, Xiaoman complained angrily when he saw his elder brother, and Du Fengxian also complained to Gu Lichun about Xiaoman, saying that Xiaoman didn't respect his elders.

Gu Lichun looked at Du Fengxian and said with a smile on his face: "Oh, I almost forgot that the third aunt didn't say that she was an elder. But, did the third aunt also forget that she was an elder, and you called my mother in front of Xiaoman?" Do you think it's appropriate to say bad things about him? Or is that what everyone in the town does?"

Someone burst out laughing, and the others laughed too.

Du Fengxian was angry and embarrassed, and became more and more angry. She was about to explode when Gu Lichun said to Xiaoman: "Xiaoman, you will be ten years old after the new year, and you are an older child. What are you fussing about with Third Aunt?"

Li Xia took over the conversation and said, "That's right, Xiao Man is a big kid, and Third Aunt is only in her 30s after all, she's not sensible yet."

Everyone laughed when they heard "little 30s".

Another joked: "Then I am also a small 45 years old this year."

……

Du Fengxian was so angry that his liver hurt, he pointed at his brothers and sisters and shouted: "Okay, you guys are really good."

Du Fengxian ran away in embarrassment amidst the laughter of the crowd.

Du Fengxian ran away in anger, and everyone continued to watch Tian Sanhong learn to ride a bicycle.

At the beginning, Tian Sanhong was a little embarrassed, but then she simply let go.If she learns to ride a bicycle, it will be convenient for her to go back to her mother's house to go to the town or the county in the future, even if she is ashamed to learn.

Tian Sanhong is not stupid, and his body is also flexible. With the help of Wu Fatty and Zhao Gao, he became proficient in a short time. He can barely ride a section by himself, but he is easy to be afraid and flustered. It will be fine if you practice a few times.

Tian Sanhong practiced cycling all afternoon. She was so tired that she was sweating all over, and finally she was able to ride independently.She looked very happy: "I didn't expect that our family could have a bicycle, let alone that I could ride a bicycle."

Wu Fat said: "I said earlier that it's not difficult. The women on our farm can ride, and there are also women who can drive tractors and harvesters."

Tian Sanhong was full of admiration.

Xiaoyu was listening, her eyes sparkling, and she asked Wu Pang: "Brother Fat, can I learn to drive a tractor? I sat down for a while last time, and I think I can drive with short legs."

Wu Fat glanced at Xiaodouding: "But your arms are short too, eat more, grow up quickly, and learn later."

Xiao Yu looked at her little arms and legs with a frustrated expression.

Gu Lichun was going back to the farm tomorrow, Tian Sanhong had a short rest, and then hurriedly got up to pack his things.

Sanzi wants to bring it, and get it from the farm colleagues to lead New Year's greetings.There were also New Year gifts from others. Tian Sanhong picked out the good ones and put them on. Gu Lichun asked for a few more bottles of black bean sauce and chili sauce.

Because the bottles were not enough, Tian Sanhong simply packed a large jar of chili sauce and brought them the jars of fermented soybeans.

In addition to food, Gu Lichun also brought the rattan bookshelf and rattan wardrobe that his uncle gave him. These two things are not heavy, but they take up space.

Zhao Gao also liked these two things very much: "These two things are useful. Our dormitory has cabinets, but the pig farm has nothing."

Gu Lichun said: "Take these two first, go to the farm and think of a way." Years ago he decided to become a full-time employee and move to live in a pig farm, both Wu Fat and Zhao Gao knew about it.

Zhao Gao still added one more sentence: "Brother Gu, the pig farm is big, but don't you think the smell is a bit strong? It's better in winter. In spring, summer and autumn, I feel that the pig farm is full of smell."

Gu Lichun said: "That's because you don't pay attention to hygiene. You clean the pigsty casually, and the pig manure is not cleaned up in time. As long as it is cleaned up, the smell is not strong. The pigs in our village are all raised in the yard. It's not the same. Pass?"

Zhao Gao scratched his head in embarrassment, they didn't care too much before.

Gu Lichun said again: "However, the environment of the pig farm is indeed not very good, and we have to renovate it after we go back.

Our yard is large and has a lot of open space. We plant several scented flowers such as jasmine and honeysuckle to conceal the smell. "

When Gu Lichun said this, Wu Fatty felt that he wanted to move there.That's right, once Brother Gu leaves, what's the point of him being in the dormitory, looking at Bai Chang's long face?It's better to live with the pig farm.

Wu Fat quickly made a decision: "Brother Gu, I will also move to the pig farm with you."

Zhao Gao was dumbfounded, and hurriedly said: "I think it was because of Wang Xiao and Li Kuan's presence in the past, but now they are both gone, so it's okay if we don't move the dormitory."

Wu Pang said: "The four of you used to be here, and there were few people in the dormitory. Now that they leave, the field office will definitely arrange someone else to live in it. I can't live anymore. The dormitory is crowded, noisy, dirty and intrigues all day long."

Zhao Gao couldn't help but wanted to expose the truth: "Fatty Wu, in good conscience, you are the only one in our dormitory who doesn't care about hygiene. You don't wash your socks for a month, you don't change the quilt and sheets for a year, and you snore loudly."

Fatty Wu rolled his eyes: "So what, but I'm not like you guys who fight back and forth, playing tricks all day long."

Zhao Gao rolled his eyes back at him: "You really want to fight, but do you have a heart?"

Gu Lichun: "..."

No matter what Zhao Gao said, Wu Fatty was determined to move away with Gu Lichun anyway, Zhao Gao had nothing to do with the two of them, but he was not too happy to let him move with him.Fortunately, the two did not persuade him to move together.

When it was time for dinner, Gu Lichun had already packed his things, and Wu Fatty had also packed his own luggage.

Gu Lichun thought that he would leave tomorrow, and he would go to see Chen Yu before he left.

After dinner, Gu Lichun let Zhao Gao and Wu Pang play in the room, and he wanted to go out.

The two are centered on Gu Lichun, and the only activity they can do together is pinching each other.

Especially Wu Fat, as a qualified follower, he naturally wanted to ask where Gu Lichun was going.

Gu Lichun said: "I'm going to the farm tomorrow, I'm going to see a friend."

Wu Fatty's brain was intermittently clever: "You have been to Ye Chao's house, and the educated youths have also been to the house, so you went to 'that one' house." That one refers to Chen Yu, because Chen Yu said they It was "the two ends" that Wu Fat kept remembering, even after he followed Gu Lichun to help, he didn't forget about it.

Zhao Gao didn't know who "that one" was, and when Wu Fat explained it to him, Zhao Gao slapped his legs and exclaimed, saying it was a good name.

Just as Gu Lichun was about to go out, he heard two familiar dogs barking from outside the courtyard.

Lidong heard it, and swished out.

Gu Lichun: "..." That guy Chen Yu came to the door?

Just as he was thinking, Lidong quickly folded back, still holding a basket in his hand, and ran over to Gu Lichun and said, "Brother, this is a New Year's gift from Chen Yu. The fried fish and meat are for us, and the dumplings are for us." your."

Gu Lichun looked at the bowl of dumplings that were as big as steamed buns in the basket, and remained silent for a while.

Gu Lichun asked: "He made this dumpling himself?"

Lidong said: "Oh, brother, you are smart, I didn't tell you, you know."

Zhao Gao and Wu Pang attacked Chen Yu's dumplings together.

"It's ugly. It's big and ugly. It's not as good as mine."

"The guy is so stupid, still dragging."

Gu Lichun ignored the two of them, he said: "Give the things to mother, remember not to let father know." Gu Dajiang objected to his family's dealings with the Chen family, although he was not afraid of what would happen to him, but troubles always annoyed him.

Since everyone gave New Year's gifts, he should give some too. Gu Lichun picked up some casually, and used the original broken basket to pack up the things. He was about to go out, but he heard someone knocking on the door, and Lidong flew over to open the door again.

The people who came were Chen Jie and Zhang Yan.

Gu Lichun hurriedly invited the two of them to come in. Chen Jie stood at the door with a slightly trembling voice: "Comrade Gu, I know the answer to the question you asked me last time. I wrote it in the book. I will lend you this book." .It's too late and I won't go in."

Gu Lichun couldn't see the expression on Chen Jie's face clearly in the dark, but in the blink of an eye, he understood.Chen Jie knew who the person who hurt her that day was.
