Chapter 84 The Truth and the Big-Character Posters

The whole family was very happy that Tian Sanhong was going to work in the cafeteria, and Lidong was the most excited.

For the past two days, he has been immersed in his great joy.

He asked excitedly: "Mom, you have gone to work in the cafeteria, can I eat whatever I want when I go to eat?"

Here, everyone is called mother, and Gu Lichun's brothers and sisters also follow the trend and stop calling them mother.

Lixia showed a look of contempt for Lidong: "Lidong, can you be smarter? Our mother is a worker in the cafeteria, so she has to obey the rules. And eat casually? Let's set an example, understand?"

Xiaoman likes to listen to the cadres of the farm, but now he is full of clichés: "That's right, third brother, your ideological consciousness is too low. You have to study hard. I will be a big cadre in the future. A brother like you will held me back."

Lidong was besieged by two people and was very angry.But he is stupid and can't talk to them.

After looking around, he had to talk to Wu Pang. After hearing this, Wu Pang comforted Lidong, and then gave him advice, "You can't eat casually in the cafeteria, but we have a way. If Aunt Tian can open a meal Window, let’s go to that window to cook food, can’t she get us some more meat? Let me tell you that cooking in a cafeteria is very particular. If you have an acquaintance, you can get more meat when cooking, and you can use a spoon hard Squeeze it, press it really, one share is worth two for others."

Lidong felt that he had opened the door to a new world, and looked at Wu Pang with admiration.Wu Pang has rarely felt such a real worship, and he likes Lidong even more.

Tian Sanhong didn't expect her job to be implemented so quickly. She was both excited and apprehensive, fearing that she might lose face if she didn't do well.

Gu Lichun comforted her and said: "Mom, don't worry, the work in the cafeteria is not difficult, it's similar to normal cooking, you need to get used to it first."

Gu Hongyu privately began to pass on some work experience to Tian Sanhong: "Sister-in-law, after you go, work hard, let's not be lazy or evasive, and do our job well. But you have to remember, you can't be soft-tempered, and you can't be rude. People bullied him."

She is not worried about her nephew's personality, but she is more worried that her sister-in-law will not be able to stand up.

Tian Sanhong listened carefully, nodded solemnly and said: "Hongyu, I remember what you said. Don't worry, I am different from before. As a mother, I can't let my children worry about me everywhere. "

Gu Hongyu nodded, this person is not afraid of shortcomings, as long as he can listen to what he says.Like her elder brother Gu Dajiang, who doesn't listen to any opinions and is completely unreasonable, then it is completely hopeless.However, death is the most important thing, so she didn't say anything.

There are happy things and sad things, that is, Gu Hongyu and Yang Aiguo have to go back.

Second Mistress sighed with a look of desolation: "How does time go by so fast? A few days passed in a blink of an eye."

Gu Hongyu said: "Eating and drinking every day, can you not be happy? I feel that these few days are tight."

Second Mistress was full of reluctance: "I don't know when you will come back next time?"

Gu Hongyu said: "Mother, you forgot, you have to pick up Zhuzhu back after the summer vacation. At that time, Aiguo and I will definitely have to come back."

The second grandma was right when she thought about it, she almost forgot.

The mother and son discussed quietly how to spend this summer vacation.

Second Mistress said: "I'm hesitating. I see that Zhuzhu is having a good time with Xiaoman and the others. When I return to the village, I won't have so many playmates. But it's not so good to live here all the time."

Gu Hongyu has been observing for the past few days, and found that her mother is having a good time here, there are many people, and the family members here are better than those in Gu's Village.Zhuzhu also had a good time, she said: "Mother, I think sister-in-law and Lichun really want to keep you, Zhuzhu also likes here, or you can live here with Zhuzhu, I will leave some money for you, you Subsidize them more."

Second Mistress hesitated for a long time before accepting her daughter's suggestion.

Yang Zhuzhu jumped up and down with joy when she learned that her grandmother agreed to stay on the farm.

Tian Sanhong was also very happy: "Second Aunt, I can't take care of my family when I go to work in the cafeteria, so I don't worry if you are watching at home."

Gu Hongyu was about to leave soon, so she discussed with Second Mistress and Gu Lichun that they would go back to their family village and burn some paper for their father and elder brother's graves.

Because Tian Sanhong just went to work, it is not easy to ask for leave.Gu Lichun took Lixia Lidong, Xiaoman and the others back together.

Gu Lichun went to the agricultural machinery station to rent a tractor. Gu Hongyu and Yang Aiguo packed up their things and prepared to go to the county seat to take a car back to the city after finishing the grave.

They were leaving, and everyone was a little bit reluctant.

Gu Hongyu said: "I have to come back to pick up the pearls at the end of August, so we won't see you again then? Come to our house when you are free."

Tian Sanhong packed a lot of food and local specialties for Gu Hongyu. When the two came, they brought gifts for their whole family, including clothes for adults and children, books and stationery for children.Before leaving, of course she had to express something.

Fortunately, the family is much more affluent now, and there are many rare items sent by He Wenyong. Tian Sanhong picked several of them to put on for Gu Hongyu, but Gu Hongyu took them out in the end: "Sister-in-law, I work in the supply and marketing cooperative. Missing these things."

Tian Sanhong insisted on giving: "What you have is yours, what I give is what I give."

Gu Hongyu thought for a while, this sister-in-law is not a stingy person, and it is impossible for her not to give it away at all, so she said: "Then sister-in-law will give me some food, like fermented soybeans and chili sauce that you and your mother made. Last time Lichun sent it, your nephew ate it cutely, he took two bottles to the dormitory, and they were snatched up in no time.”

When Tian Sanhong heard it, he smiled: "Isn't it easy for you to like this? There are many of them at home."

Tian Sanhong and Second Mistress took out the tempeh and chili sauce that they had at home, and made a few new cans of meat sauce.In addition, there is also a jar of salted goose eggs and salted duck eggs.

Gu Lichun went to the melon field to pick a basket of melons and vegetables and brought them to Gu Hongyu. Together with the gadgets made by his uncle, he packed a total of three big bags and two big bamboo baskets.

Yang Aiguo looked at all these things and said with a helpless smile: "Can you squeeze into the car with so many things?"

Gu Lichun said: "Yes, I will drive a tractor to take you to the county seat. There are two of you. I think I could handle it by myself."

Yang Aiguo didn't say anything.No, when Li Guangtian and his wife learned that they were leaving, they also came to see them off, and also sent a basket of special products.

Gu Hongyu and his wife said goodbye to everyone, and when they were done packing, everyone helped to carry things onto the tractor. Everyone changed into the clothes they were going out in, put on straw hats, sat down in a seat, the tractor started, and left the farm with a chug.

Half an hour later, they arrived at Gujia Village.When everyone saw Gu Hongyu and his wife coming, they immediately gathered around to watch the excitement. Gu Hongyu greeted the villagers with a smile.

Gu Lichun parked the tractor at the door of the second grandmother's house, unloaded the things, and took the sacrifices and yellow paper prepared in advance to the grave to burn the paper.

The graves of Lao Gu's family are all together, and the densely packed graves are scattered in the crop field like stars.

They went to the grave of Gu Lichun's second grandfather first, followed by Gu Dajiang's.

During the whole process, everyone was silent.

After visiting the grave, everyone else stayed at home. Gu Lichun drove Gu Hongyu and Yang Aiguo to the bus station in the county with a tractor alone. With a tractor, it was much more convenient, and the round trip was done in more than an hour.

But the weather was too hot. When I first came out of the farm, it was still early in the morning and the weather was very cool.It was noon at this moment, the sun was poisonous, and the iron on the tractor seat was scorching hot. The hot sun above the head was exposed to the sun, and the heat below was baking. It felt like being in a steamer.Gu Lichun felt dizzy, and stars appeared in front of his eyes.He calculated the distance, and found that it was still a few miles away from Gujia Village, and he murmured inwardly that he was suffering from heatstroke?

Gu Lichun hurriedly drove the tractor to a forest and stopped in a cool place. He jumped off the painting, unbuttoned his shirt, and drank a few mouthfuls of water. Unfortunately, even the water in the kettle was scalded and turned into hot water. water.

When he was suffering, he suddenly heard a familiar voice behind him: "What a fool."

Gu Lichun didn't even have the strength to turn his head, and said weakly, "Give me cold water."

Chen Yu came out from the shade behind him, unscrewed the lid of the military kettle, and poured Gu Lichun a few sips of water.

Gu Lichun drank cold water and felt a little better. He raised his eyes to look at Chen Yu, and saw that he was standing in front of him, making a gesture to take off his clothes. Gu Lichun thought he was dazzled, shook his head, and asked, "You What are you doing undressing?"

Chen Yu ignored him, quickly took off his vest, wet his clothes with water from a kettle, used it as a towel to wipe Gu Lichun's face, and covered his forehead to cool down.

Only then did Gu Lichun understand his intention, he moved his lips: "Thank you."

Chen Yu snorted from his nasal cavity: "Thoughts are really complicated."

Gu Lichun: "If you are not complicated, how can you realize that my thoughts are not complicated?"

Chen Yu stared at him: "Anyway, I can feel it, and I know it even if you don't tell me."

Gu Lichun suddenly stared at Chen Yu and stopped talking. His back and chest were covered with horrific wounds. According to visual inspection, there were several kinds of whip wounds, knife wounds, and club wounds.At such a young age, those people are actually able to do it?Gu Lichun's heart convulsed.

Chen Yu saw that the other party was staring at his body with an unnatural expression, so he silently turned around and turned his back to him.

Seeing that his gaze made the other party embarrassed, Gu Lichun closed his eyes and rested his mind.

He rested for a while and felt much better before he had the strength to speak, "Does the wound on your body still hurt?"

Chen Yu was stunned for a while, and then replied: "Oh, those, the pain is gone."

Gu Lichun was silent for a while, then suddenly said without thinking: "I suddenly understood your choice." He understood why Chen Yu in the book became a villain in the end, and if it was him, he might be more blackened.

Chen Yu was confused when he heard it, he felt that Gu Lichun's brain seemed to be sunburned after heatstroke.

Seeing that his condition had improved, Chen Yu asked, "What are you going to do? Go back by yourself? Or should I go back and call someone for you?"

Gu Lichun calculated the distance. This place is not far from Gujia Village, so there is no need to call someone.

He tried to stand up, his head was still a little dizzy, but it was much stronger than before.

Chen Yu took his wet vest, put it on his body indifferently, walked over, and forced Gu Lichun to sit down: "Sit down for a while, I remember that this place is not far from the commune, I'll buy you some popsicles and soda, and then ask if there is any medicine for heat stroke."

Gu Lichun stopped him: "No, I'm getting better soon, don't you have heat stroke too."

Chen Yu snorted, "You thought I was you." After speaking, he turned and ran away.

Gu Lichun had no choice but to lean against the tree trunk and continue to rest with his eyes closed.In the middle, he fell asleep, and when he woke up, he felt his face was cold.Opening his eyes, Chen Yu was holding a bottle of soda close to his face.As soon as he woke up, he handed him a popsicle.Both of them didn't speak, just sucked and ate popsicles.After eating two popsicles and drinking a bottle of soda, Gu Lichun felt that he was fine.

On the way back, Chen Yu came to drive the tractor all the way to the second grandma's house.Seeing Gu Lichun's pale face, Second Mistress asked him with concern if he had suffered from heatstroke.

Gu Lichun nodded: "A little bit, thanks to Chen Yu helping me, it's much better now."

Second Mistress went out to find someone, only to find that Chen Yu had quietly left.

Lidong Lixia came to help Gu Lichun go back to the house to lie down, the second grandma made mung bean soup for him, and blamed herself: "It's all my fault for not being thoughtful, I shouldn't let you see them off at noon."

Gu Lichun said: "It's okay, it's not serious."

Second Mistress saw that Gu Lichun hadn't fully recovered, so she decided to let everyone stay at home for one night, get up early and leave tomorrow, so as not to suffer from heat stroke again, and everyone naturally had no objections.

After eating a simple lunch, Gu Lichun went to bed. When he woke up, it was dark, the heat outside had dissipated, and the night breeze was cool and pleasant.

The second grandma made cucumber shredded cold skin for everyone. The cold skin was thin, smooth and chewy, hot and sour. Gu Lichun had a big appetite and ate a plate.

Seeing that his appetite had recovered, Second Mistress was completely relieved.

He had a full sleep in the afternoon, and his energy was up, so he wanted to go for a walk.

The second grandma took out half a bowl of cold noodle mix, "I made this in the afternoon, it's too hot to leave, you take it to Xiao Chen to eat."

Gu Lichun said: "Okay, what happened today is thanks to him."

Gu Lichun asked Lidong to call Chen Yu and make an appointment to meet him in the yard of his house.

The moonlight was bright and the cool breeze was blowing cool. The two sat at the table in the courtyard. Chen Yu was eating Liangpi on the opposite side, while Gu Lichun was waving his fan and looking at the dark blue night sky thinking about life.

Chen Yu said while eating, "The cold noodle is really delicious."

Gu Lichun hummed in response.

Chen Yu: "Your second grandma is very good, and your family is all good."

Gu Lichun hummed again.

Chen Yu let out a foul breath: "You guys in Gujia Village are pretty good, but you all left."

Gu Lichun: "You will leave here sooner or later."

Chen Yu said calmly, "Maybe."

Chen Yu suddenly remembered something, moved his lips and swallowed the words back.

Gu Lichun remembered that he once said that he would help him find out about Meng Nianqun's father, Meng Anjing, and he felt something, so he said, "Do you have anything new to tell me? Tell me, if you don't tell me, others will tell you sooner or later." I."

Chen Yu lowered his head and pondered for a long time, then got up and looked outside the courtyard, and after confirming that there was no one outside, he turned back and said in a low voice, "Let me tell you first, because things are too long ago, my grandparents' memory is not very good, and there may be some discrepancies with the truth. , just listen to it."

Gu Lichun nodded, expressing his understanding.

Chen Yu said softly: "I came back and asked my grandparents if they had heard of Meng Anjing. They said that they had a few encounters with Meng Anjing's father more than a dozen years ago. It should have been in 57 or 58. Mr. Meng was beaten as a gangster and framed as a gangster. He was sent from the capital to Qingjiang County for labor reform. Mr. Meng’s eldest son, third son and third daughter-in-law were also sent down together.”

When Chen Yu said this, he paused for a while, and continued: "At that time, Mr. Meng's third daughter-in-law was pregnant. According to the regulations, pregnant women were not required to be sent down. At that time, the Meng family must have offended someone, so Meng The third daughter-in-law of the family also went to Qingjiang County, and what happened later is just hearsay, I heard that not long after she gave birth to the child, the child was taken away by a woman who went crazy because of the death of the child, and thrown into the Qingjiang River..."

Gu Lichun was shocked, but his face was still calm: "And then?"

Chen Yu said helplessly: "Then it disappeared. Anyway, this incident hit the third daughter-in-law of the Meng family very hard. They asked for help everywhere to find the child, but in the end they couldn't even find the body."

Gu Lichun suddenly asked: "How far is Qingjiang County from here?"

Chen Yu thought for a while and replied: "It's more than 100 miles, I don't know."

Gu Lichun said: "The location is not right."

Chen Yu smiled and said, "I also think it's not right, so you can just listen to this matter."

Gu Lichun asked again: "So the Meng family is from the capital, and they are from the same town as you?"

Chen Yu shook his head: "They used to be, but they were transferred away. I don't know the details, after all, we have been away for several years."

After talking about this question, both of them fell into a long silence.

Chen Yu sighed deeply, "It's strange to say that I want to help you find out the truth, but I don't want you to know the truth. I'm afraid you will get into more trouble. You seem indifferent on the surface, but you are not. But in this world... ..."

Gu Lichun twitched the corner of his mouth: "I understand. Thank you for telling me this. I will find a chance to find out when I go back."

Those who played three games and four games had to divert some of the reform-through-labor prisoners to five games. If Meng Anjing was involved, he would find a chance to ask them face to face.

He suddenly remembered a key person: "Is that lunatic still alive?"

Chen Yu shook his head: "I really don't know, probably not here."

He then added: "Everything done will definitely leave traces. If you want to know, I will take the time to check it for you."

Gu Lichun nodded: "Thank you."

Chen Yu helped him so much, he thought for a while, and then said: "By the way, the three-point field and the four-point field will divide some of the reform-through-labor inmates into the five-point field. If your aunt is among them, I will take care of her as much as possible. "

Chen Yu's voice was trembling with excitement: "What you said is true? Did you lie to me?"

Gu Lichun asked back funnyly: "Have I ever lied to you?"

Chen Yu quickly said, "I'm sorry, I didn't doubt what you meant."

Gu Lichun went on to say: "But let's say it in advance, I can't decide whether she is on the list or not."

Chen Yu suddenly remembered something, got up and said, "Can you lend me a piece of paper and a pen, I want to write a letter of trust for you to bring to my cousin."

"Yes." Gu Lichun led him into his original room, lit a candle, and found a pen and paper for him to write a letter.

After Chen Yu finished writing the letter, he handed it to Gu Lichun.

Gu Lichun looked at the moon and said, "You should go back to sleep."

Chen Yu dawdled not wanting to leave, and tentatively asked, "Aren't you afraid by yourself?" After all, his father passed away not long ago.

Gu Lichun said indifferently: "Don't be afraid, I like to be quiet."

Chen Yu couldn't help being a little annoyed when he heard this, he stood up abruptly and said, "That's good, I'm afraid you begged me to stay with you. I prefer quiet."

Gu Lichun: "..."

Gu Lichun still couldn't be quiet after all, just as Chen Yu left, Lixia and Lidong came back.

The three brothers stayed at home for one night, and Gu Lichun drove the tractor back to the farm.

He sent his second grandmother and younger siblings home and returned the car to the agricultural machinery station. Once there, he saw the staff of the agricultural machinery station flickering and asked Gu Lichun, "Little Gu, are you okay?"

Gu Lichun was at a loss, and wanted to ask them, but after thinking about it, let's go back and talk about it.

The pig farm he returned to first, this is his big palace after all.

As soon as Gu Lichun entered the courtyard, he heard Wu Fatty's loud voice: "Xiao Chen, you are not very good at writing, you are not strong enough. Xiao Meng, help me write."

Gu Lichun was puzzled, and stood at the door and asked, "Fatty Wu, what are you going to write?"

When everyone saw that Gu Lichun had returned, they all surrounded him.

Chen Jie said angrily, "Brother Gu, someone posted your big-character poster in the cafeteria."

Wu Fat scolded: "Sneaky, I don't even dare to sign my real name. I want to post a copy and sign my real name."

With a calm face, Gu Lichun asked them to talk one by one. After listening for a while, he realized that someone posted a few big-character posters in the cafeteria. They were charged with three crimes: eating and drinking, corrupting the leadership; eating barbecue, corrupting their lives; Mother got into work in the cafeteria.

Gu Lichun looked at the big-character posters all over the table, and asked, "Are you planning to post them too?"

Fatty Wu said: "Of course I have to post it, why should they post it? I want to post it too!"

Speaking of this, Wu Pang looked depressed: "It's just that I'm not very good at writing. What's that sentence called, I don't have enough words when I write it."

Zhao Gaobai gave Wu Pang a look: "That's called 'When the book is used, you will hate less'."

Wu Fat: "Almost, same meaning."

Seeing Gu Lichun's eyes brighten, Wu Fatty grabbed him: "Brother Gu, I can read the articles you wrote, and I can read them with all my strength. In this way, I say you write for me."

Zhao Gao also said: "Yes, I also have something to say."

Gu Lichun thought for a while, and said: "Let's write our own, so that a hundred flowers can bloom. Come, let me help you sort out your thoughts, and you can write it yourself."

With the inspiration and help of Gu Lichun, Wu Pang finally wrote his first big-character poster. The font was crooked, and the name was very characteristic of Wu Pang: "Who doesn't eat or drink, I admit that he is not corrupt."

Zhao Gao wrote "Everyone raises money to eat, is it corrupting the leadership?" ".

When they took the big-character posters they had written to the canteen, they found that all kinds of big-character posters were pasted on the wall, and the place became a sea of ​​big-character posters, and all of them were signed.

Among them, the most notable ones are the big-character posters signed by Lu Mingliang and Zhao Mingguang, with pictures and content.

There are more than a dozen saplings painted on it, and the name is "You don't let the seedlings of the motherland grow up!" "

Next to it is a big-character poster signed by Li Qingqing and Li Shu's brother and sister: "Eat barbecue once in ten years, you call it corruption."

It was followed by Zhao Gao's father's fucking "Don't Eat Meat After You Have Seeds".
