Bring the refrigerator back to seventy
Chapter 82 Extra Story: Brother Hongqi
"Director Li, this is the last batch of wine for this year. Please order it."
Hong Qi smiled and greeted Director Li of the Supply and Marketing Cooperative.
This year, their brigade established a collective winery. Because the wild grapes on the mountain can only bear fruit once a year, the output is not particularly large.However, the first batch sold well after being sent to the supply and marketing cooperative.Because it is packed in large wooden barrels and sent directly to the supply and marketing cooperatives for sale as loose wine, the price is not expensive.The nearby brigades all know Red Star wine, which is cheap and delicious.
"This wine is selling really well. Especially now at the end of the year, many brigades are sharing food and money. If you don't deliver it today, I'm going to call your brigade to remind you! Can't we increase production this year? ?” Director Li never expected that he would be able to find a good wine for the supply and marketing cooperative just to sell face to his relatives.
Hongqi also wants to increase production, but there are only so many grapes on the mountain, and their land cannot be used to grow grapes.However, Junzi also said that it is better to do it steadily at the beginning.Anyway, making this wine consumes the most manpower.
After leaving the supply and marketing cooperative, Hong Qi took the payment that Director Li had settled for him, called a few young men who came to deliver the goods together, and hurried back with the ox cart.Everyone is waiting for the last batch of payment.
As soon as they entered the village, Hongqi and the others were warmly welcomed by the aunts and aunts.Everyone stared at Hongqi with fiery eyes, to be precise, at Hongqi's bulging chest.Don't get me wrong that they are not serious, because Hongqi put all the money in that place, which looks very big.
"Hongqi, what's the matter? Have you settled the payment today?"
"Hongqi, do you want to divide the money today?"
"Hongqi, is the supply and marketing cooperative really selling so well?"
……
No wonder they feel miraculous.At the beginning, when the captain put forward the proposal of building a factory, many people scoffed.Everyone said that the captain was just messing around, and that he might as well open up two acres of land if he has this spare time, and collect more food to subsidize the family.Only those good brothers who play with Hongqi support it.
Because white sugar and a large number of wooden barrels are used to brew wine, even if the factory is approved, there is no way to start work.Later, Wu Jun came back from vacation and held a meeting with the team.After introducing this matter, it is really possible to make money, and even pulled out Li Gong, a city resident, to speak out.In the end, of course, it was Hongqi who shared the barrel of wine in the warehouse at home for everyone to taste, which made these old farmers believe that this matter could be successful.
Originally, Hongqi thought that this matter was the same as the last time he bought ducklings. People from their Wu family secretly partnered to make the deal.It was only stopped by Li Gong.If they really make money because of this wine, they are afraid that those who failed to partner in will make trouble.At last they discussed this method.
Touching the bag of money in his bosom, Hong Qi jumped off the bullock cart and went back to the brigade first to pay the bill.
Many people follow along when they have nothing to do.
Because it is a collective factory, the accounts are open and transparent from the beginning.Now the volume of goods is not large, and a piece of red paper is used to record the details of each shipment and payment.This paper was pasted on the bulletin board of the brigade, where everyone could see it.
Accountant Wu took the paper bag from Hongqi and began to count.
At the end of the year, they produced a total of 280 barrels of wine.The remaining 10 barrels will be distributed by the brigade at the end of the year, and all the rest will be sent to the supply and marketing cooperatives for sale.Excluding sugar, wooden barrels and other expenses, the final profit was 850 yuan.Although it is not a lot for each person, it does not take many days to make wine.It's a bargain indeed.
"Wow, if there are grapes to make wine all year round, then our brigade will get rich."
"Hey, you are so beautiful. These are grapes, not Chinese cabbage. Chinese cabbage doesn't grow all year round. With such extra income, we all have to laugh."
"I'm going to buy some cloth after I've divided the money."
Everyone's topic has changed from how to divide money to make a fortune to spending money.Some aunts don't think they are usually stingy, but they are already planning to spend the money to buy some defective cloth or meaty bones that don't cost tickets, so that the family can live a good life.
"Uncle Dali, I'll go home first after ordering." After Hong Qi finished speaking, she pushed aside the crowd and left.He didn't notice that there was a pair of beautiful eyes following his figure closely in the crowd.
When Hongqi returned home, there was no one there, only a few dogs playing wildly.
He simply sat on a small bench in the yard and tickled his dogs.It is too cold in winter to dare to bathe them.You can only groom them by yourself.
While combing, I was thinking about what my mother said yesterday: You are 21 years old this year, are you still looking for a partner?Mother is worried that the older you get, the less likely you will be able to find a good girl.If you have a regular job in the city like Yunzi, then I'm not worried.Although your father is the captain, you don't have any special attractive conditions.Many people dislike marrying without the help of brothers, and they are meaningless to you.
Hongqi knew that the old lady was doing it for her own good.He does not have a job in the city, but he has learned a craft, and now he can help the brigade make money.As Junzi said, when the market stabilizes, he can find ways to expand production.That annoying Li Gong is right, there is a future for their brigade to make this wine.
Although Wu Hongqi is not a big shot, he also wants to benefit the brigade just like his cousin.The large amount of white sugar that will be used in this brewing is because my cousin helped to contact the person in charge of the sugar factory to get such good quality white sugar at such an affordable price.
At first he went to the sugar factory, but when they saw that his letter of introduction was just a small factory in the countryside, they ignored him.If it weren't for Junzi's help in making connections, the winery in their brigade would not have made such a high profit this year.
Thinking of my cousin, I envied that he could work in the county.There, you can definitely see a wider sky and meet more interesting people.
The dog groomed by Hong Qi saw him in a daze, so he washed his face with his tongue, and called the dazed master back.
Hong Qi regained consciousness, blaming himself for getting into a dead end.Individuals have their own destiny.Maybe my cousin in the county is envious that I can go to his house to chat with grandparents every day.
The optimistic red flags are back.Stand up and prepare to go out to find briquettes and they talk about it.It's a pity that when he opened the gate of the courtyard, he saw this person who he wanted to see but was afraid to see again.
"Hongqi, my family just sent me something, this is for you."
Hong Qi looked at the can of meat handed to him, speechless.He likes to eat canned meat, but he can't accept what this person gives.He didn't want to owe her something, because he would owe more and more, and eventually he couldn't pay it back.
Liu Honghua just held the can, and she wouldn't let go until the red flag was picked up.
Seeing her persistent actions, Hong Qi had no choice but to let her in was even more impossible.Lest the plums in the melon field fall into the limelight.
He also didn't know why Liu Honghua was so obsessed with him.He was just the son of an old farmer with no special skills.However, seeing Liu Honghua's efforts to take root here, he would sometimes help her.After going back and forth like this, she cared more about herself.
Of course, Hongqi himself doesn't understand these things.He only knew that sometimes he saw her working so hard and wanted to help.
"You don't have to avoid me like this. This canned food is just to thank you for your help. I have a letter from my family, and they have already helped me find a job. After the Chinese New Year, I will go back to the city." Liu Zhihua finished. After saying this, he took a deep look at Hongqi, put the can in his hand on the ground, turned and left.
Hongqi looked at her leaving back with a look of loss.
Because he knew that his parents would not agree with him dating an educated youth.Therefore, he has been avoiding Liu Honghua's overtures.But, when he knew she was going back to the city, why did his heart start to ache?Shouldn't he be happy for Liu Zhiqing at this time?
The dog in the yard seemed to feel the loss of its owner, and leaned against him without saying a word, trying to make the owner feel a little warm.
Liu Honghua quickly ran back to the educated youth spot.I saw Su Qing cleaning up the chicken coop in the yard, and Wei Hongling had already asked for leave to go back to the city to visit relatives.She asked softly: "Su Qing, do you regret going to the countryside and coming here?"
Without waiting for Su Qing's answer, she said again: "I don't regret it. Although I hated the backwardness here at first. However, the people here are so kind to us, and I have learned a lot here. You say, I even raise The pig has learned it, why doesn't he believe that I will stay here forever?"
Su Qing looked at the tearful Liu Honghua: "He is not alone, he has parents. If he goes against the wishes of his parents and stays with you, do you think such a man is reliable?"
Su Qing had known for a long time that Liu Honghua secretly liked Hongqi.It's just that she thought that Liu Honghua's liking would soon end with the passage of time.After all, Hongqi saved her several times at that time.It's perfectly normal to have a good impression of a savior, especially a handsome savior.
Unexpectedly, Liu Honghua actually learned to do farm work, learned to integrate into the village, and finally went to a pig farm to learn the skills of raising pigs.All this is just to let the sweetheart see his efforts.It's a pity that feelings are sometimes not something you can get through hard work.
"After the new year, you will go back to the city. After you go back to work, slowly, you will forget the people here."
Through tears, Liu Honghua saw Su Qing's calm expression, and couldn't help asking: "Really? Will I really forget the people here? Will I forget him? But I don't want to forget, what should I do?" ?”
After finishing speaking, she threw herself on Su Qing's body, leaned her head on her shoulder, and cried like a child.
Su Qing looked at her hand that was still stained with chicken dung, and wanted to pat Liu Honghua comfortingly, but couldn't do it, so she could only freeze there.Hearing the sad cry beside her ear, a figure also flashed in her heart.However, she knew that she would never have any chance in this life, so she could only silently bless this person in her heart, wishing him all the best and a safe life.
Aunt Wu went home and wanted to make lunch. As soon as she entered the door, she saw her son standing in the yard stupidly, with a can on the ground.
Knelt down and picked up the can: "Son, is this Junzi back? Why did you put the can on the ground?"
Seeing that her son didn't respond, Aunt Wu hurried forward and touched his forehead: "I don't have a fever, what's the matter with you? Did you encounter any problems when you went to the supply and marketing agency today?"
Hong Qi swallowed her saliva, and said in a low voice: "Mother, I'm fine. I'll go back to my room to rest first."
After finishing speaking, he lifted his feet and went back to the room.However, after walking a few steps, he stepped back and took back the canned meat in the old lady's hand.
"What's the matter with this kid? You can't even bear to give your old lady a can?" As she said this, Aunt Wu became worried in her heart.
Hong Qi was lying on the kang, holding the can with one hand and looking at it. He didn't know what to do.
It stands to reason that when Liu Honghua said she was going back to the city, he should be happy to bless her.Anyway, having her parents, relatives and friends in the city is definitely better than staying here.However, he actually felt very unhappy.There was even an urge to ask her to stay.He, Wu Hongqi, is a man, and he cannot do such things that hinder people's progress.When Liu Honghua returned to the city, she would be able to find a city resident like her to marry and have children instead of staying in the village and working hard all day raising pigs.
"Yes, this is the right way. Wu Hongqi, you have to be a man." Hongqi brainwashed himself like this in his heart, as if talking too much, this is the right thing.
From this day on, anyone who is familiar with Hongqi knows that he is not happy.I am still very serious when I work every day, but I don’t laugh much, let alone talk about it with my friends.Aunt Wu worriedly mentioned to her husband that something was wrong with her son.Because, even his favorite meat, he doesn't like to eat it.However, Uncle Wu felt that a man should be so calm, and his son was normal except for not talking every day.
Aunt Wu can only hope that Wu Jun will come back from vacation soon, and it will be fine when his nephew comes back.The two of them have a good relationship, so they should be able to ask something.
Wu Jun came back when Aunt Wu was looking forward to the stars and the moon.
Sitting in the back seat of Li Gong's car with big bags and small bags, the two went back to the Red Star Team for the New Year together.
As soon as she got home, Wu Jun saw her auntie come to her house even before her butt was warmed up.
"Auntie, what's the matter?" Seeing her anxious look, Wu Yun hurried forward.
"Junzi, it's your cousin who has something to do. Listen to me..."
Wu Yun didn't have a clue after listening to what the auntie said.Let Li Gong pack up his things, and he followed his aunt to her house. "Junzi, why is your friend coming to our brigade to celebrate the New Year again this year?" Aunt Wu breathed a sigh of relief after talking about her son, and was in the mood to ask about these things.
Wu Jun didn't intend to let his uncle and auntie know about him and Li Gong in a short time.Hearing this, he just explained lightly that his family members didn't have time and brought them over.
When she saw her cousin, Wu Jun couldn't see what was wrong with him.After all, no one has ever seen haggard or thinned.However, this face is quite serious.
Hong Qi took a look at his old lady and knew what she wanted to do.It's just that he can't say this kind of thing, otherwise it will ruin Liu Honghua's reputation.
"Brother, I just came back, don't you invite me to sit down and have a rest and have a cup of tea?" Wu Jun said, wrapping his arms around his cousin's shoulders, patted his shoulders and said with a smile as he did when he was a child.
Hongqi cheered up and said a few words to his cousin.
It was only then that Wu Jun realized that the aunt hadn't exaggerated.His cousin, it seems, should, must have encountered something! !
Wu Yun rolled her eyes: "Brother, go to your room. I have something good for you." After speaking, he grabbed his cousin's shoulders and dragged him into the room.
Hong Qi reluctantly followed Wu Jun's pace.
"Brother, it's just the two of us now. Tell me what you're unhappy about, and I'll see if I can help you?" Wu Jun hammered his exercising waist, and scolded Li Gong in his heart.
"Junzi, I..."
"Brother, don't say you're fine. We grew up together, who doesn't know who? You can see that you are very unhappy. If you have something unhappy to say, don't hold it back. We care about your people Watching from the side, I can only be anxious."
After Wu Yun finished speaking, she carefully observed her cousin's expression.Seeing that he was loose, he quickly added some firewood: "You don't know how much my aunt is worried about you. I think she has lost a lot of weight. As soon as I came back, I hurriedly dragged me over to see you."
Sure enough, when the filial cousin heard that his mother was worried about losing weight, he finally had an anxious expression on his face.His eyes unconsciously turned to his pillow.
Wu Jun looked up, and there was an ordinary canned food beside the pillow.
"Did you know? This can was given to me by Zhiqing Liu."
Wu Yun was stunned, realizing that her cousin was talking to him.
"She told me that she was going back to the city. It was right for me to wish her well. But now I feel very unhappy."
Hearing the words Liu Zhiqing, Wu Yun raised his forehead.He knew it was finally here.The cousin with a strong nerve really got the hang of it.It's just that it was too late.
"Brother, don't you want her to go back to the city?"
"I don't know. I think she's doing well, but I don't want to lose sight of her."
Listening to his cousin's literary words, Wu Jun didn't know if he should wake him up directly.According to secular thinking, the two of them have no future.Even if we are together now, sooner or later we will be separated as society changes.But, thinking about the relationship between myself and Li Gong, isn't it also very special in this era.Shouldn't he have more hope for human feelings?
"Junzi, do you think I'm a bad person?" Hong Qi babbled a lot of things, and finally asked.
Wu Jun gritted her molars hard: "Brother, I ask you a question, you have to answer it honestly."
Seeing his cousin's serious face, Hong Qi nodded.
"Do you want to see Liu Honghua marry someone else and have children?" After saying this, Wu Jun carefully observed his cousin's expression, trying not to miss any clues.
However, Hong Qi's expression didn't need Wu Jun's effort.Because upon hearing his words, Hong Qi's face became very dark, as if someone owed him 800 yuan.
Got it, Wu Yun thought.
"Brother, you want to marry her as your wife."
Hongqi was frightened by his cousin's words.
Marry... Marry her, can he really think so delusional?Thinking of this, Hongqi felt a strange sweetness in his heart.
Wu Jun couldn't see this silly smile on the face of his cousin with a Chinese face, and coughed a few times to bring his cousin back to his senses.
"Brother, since you already like her, from what you said, she must like you too. What's your plan? Do you want her to stay?"
Hong Qi was stunned when he heard his cousin's words: "Father and mother will never agree to us being together."
"Brother, if you really like someone, you can fight for it. If you try hard but fail, then there's nothing to say. But if you don't even work hard, you won't get anything."
Wu Jun said these inspiring words, he didn't know what would happen to his cousin and Liu Honghua in the future.However, at this moment, he wanted his cousin to see his thoughts clearly.
After saying these words, he patted his cousin on the shoulder and went home.
Hong Qi picked up the canned meat again, feeling unpredictable.
In the evening, after his parents came back, Hongqi threw a king bomb on the dinner table.
"Father, mother, what do you think of Zhiqing Liu?"
Aunt Wu, who was drinking soup, was so startled by her son's words that she spat out the soup.Fortunately, Uncle Wu had never seen any troubles, so he calmly swallowed the soup in his mouth before turning his head to look at his son.
Hong Qi was watching his parents nervously, but he had already thought clearly in one afternoon.
"Do you know what you're talking about?" Uncle Wu looked at his son seriously.
"Father, I've been thinking about it for a long time. I didn't have much in mind at first, but Liu Zhiqing told me that she was going back to the city after the Chinese New Year. I... I want to try to fight for it. It's fine if I succeed, and I'll give you a chance if I fail." I also admit it. However, I need to obtain your consent first."
Listening to what their son said, Uncle Wu and Aunt Wu fell into deep thought for a moment.It is a good thing that my son is responsible for doing things, but why did he suddenly come up with such an idea.
"Did Liu Zhiqing tell you something?"
Hearing his mother's words, Hong Qi quickly clarified: "Mother, she never said anything from the beginning to the end. I was tempted by myself."
"Do you know how dangerous it is to talk to an educated youth?" Uncle Wu, in this position, has seen many miraculous deeds of different educated youths in other brigades.Fortunately, the three educated youths left behind by their brigade were pretty good.
Hearing that his father didn't deny his problem outright, Hong Qi quickly answered: "Father, I thought about me. I'll go ask her."
"Since you are such an adult, if you think things through yourself, then do it. However, remember to keep a proper distance and don't embarrass the educated youth."
Hongqi didn't expect his parents to agree so easily, and ran out happily, planning to ask his cousin for help as a staff officer.
"Old man, is this okay? I'm worried..."
Uncle Wu stretched out his hand and patted the back of his wife's hand, and said, "Young man, let him try it! Your son is a measured man, so don't be afraid."
On this end, Hong Qi who ran into Wu Jun's house ignored Li Gong's eyes, and directly dragged his cousin to the yard outside, and told him the good news in the cold air.
"Brother, don't be too happy. Isn't Liu Zhiqing going back to the city soon?"
Hearing Wu Jun's words, Hong Qi didn't think there was anything wrong, because he had already made a decision.
Early the next morning, there were not many people on the road.Hongqi went out to the educated youth spot.On the way, Wu Yun was also called out.
"Brother, do you really want me to follow?" Wu Jun felt strange in his heart.Last night, my cousin asked him to go to the educated youth spot with him today.Saying that two people go together is less likely to cause people to gossip.
The two soon arrived at the educated youth spot.At this time, someone should be up.From afar, I saw smoke rising from the kitchen of the educated youth.
Su Qing opened the courtyard door and saw the two Comrade Wu, she felt a little clear in her heart.Get out of the way and let them in first.
"Safflower, someone is looking for you."
As soon as Liu Honghua came out, she saw the red flag, and her eyes couldn't help turning red.
"Comrade Wu, what is the reason why you came to see me?"
Wu Jun quickly stepped aside, he felt that he needed to give the person a little space for this kind of thing.Su Qing walked to him naturally and chatted with him.
Here, Hongqi moved his lips slightly, opened and closed his mouth several times, and finally said, "Don't cry."
After speaking, he touched his head a little embarrassedly.
"Comrade Liu, I have something very important to tell you this time."
Liu Honghua thought that Hongqi was going to tell the truth and reject herself, so she lowered her head and said nothing.
Seeing himself being avoided like this, Hong Qi wondered if everything was made up by himself?
Gritting her teeth, she still expressed her thoughts: "I want to ask you if you would like to have a date with me."
"I am willing."
"Let me tell you, I'm serious, I know I'm not good enough for you..." Hong Qi said a lot of words to himself, which he practiced many times in the room last night.Now that's backwards.Suddenly, the ears seemed to receive some information.He paused, then widened his eyes, looking at Liu Honghua in disbelief.
"You mean, would you? Really? Did I hear you right?"
Liu Honghua was amused by his appearance, and just nodded.
Very good!The villain in the heart of the red flag waved the banner of victory.
Then, the two stood in the yard like fools, looked up at each other from time to time, and laughed.After laughing, he lowered his head in embarrassment.Wu Yun looked at the two of them like this, greeted Su Qing, and retreated first, leaving Su Qing to eat dog food there.
Liu Honghua asked suddenly: "Hongqi, do you think your parents can really accept me?"
"I came to tell you with their consent." Hong Qi quickly replied.
"Then I won't go back to the city, I will stay here."
Hearing this, Hongqi quickly shook his head: "You'd better go back!"
Seeing Liu Honghua's expression changed because of these words, Hongqi hurriedly said, "I'm not driving you away. It's just that I've thought a lot during this time. I think you should go back to the city. Your parents love you so much, and you've always stayed behind." It's not good news for them here. We are still young, you have to believe me, I think I will be able to settle down in the city after a few more years of hard work. At that time, we can get married."
Yes, this is how Hongqi thought all night.He thought it would be better for Liu Honghua to go back to the city first.Because the job position is not easy to get, since she has worked hard to get it at home, she should go back first.Moreover, he also wanted to rely on his own efforts to win the consent of Liu Honghua's family.
If Liu Honghua felt that she was not a good match after returning to the city, it was okay to separate.He wanted Liu Honghua to have more choices, instead of impulsively staying in the brigade.Only by withstanding difficult feelings can we go further.
Of course, in the end Liu Honghua agreed to Hongqi's request.However, one of the two returned to the city, and the other stayed in the brigade.The distance not only did not weaken the relationship between the two, but because of this reason, both of them worked hard.
Hongqi later became the director of the Red Star Brewery, and Liu Honghua also became an officer of the Women's Federation in the city.Two years later, their marriage was very lively, and they envied those women in the village who gossip and say that there is something wrong with the red flag.
The author has something to say: Brother Hongqi has written so much for the episode, and tomorrow is Su Qing's episode.

Thanks to the little angels who threw mines: Yan Lian and Liang Yi one by one;
Thanks to the little angel of irrigation nutrient solution: 9 bottles of sauce burning mud;
Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
Hong Qi smiled and greeted Director Li of the Supply and Marketing Cooperative.
This year, their brigade established a collective winery. Because the wild grapes on the mountain can only bear fruit once a year, the output is not particularly large.However, the first batch sold well after being sent to the supply and marketing cooperative.Because it is packed in large wooden barrels and sent directly to the supply and marketing cooperatives for sale as loose wine, the price is not expensive.The nearby brigades all know Red Star wine, which is cheap and delicious.
"This wine is selling really well. Especially now at the end of the year, many brigades are sharing food and money. If you don't deliver it today, I'm going to call your brigade to remind you! Can't we increase production this year? ?” Director Li never expected that he would be able to find a good wine for the supply and marketing cooperative just to sell face to his relatives.
Hongqi also wants to increase production, but there are only so many grapes on the mountain, and their land cannot be used to grow grapes.However, Junzi also said that it is better to do it steadily at the beginning.Anyway, making this wine consumes the most manpower.
After leaving the supply and marketing cooperative, Hong Qi took the payment that Director Li had settled for him, called a few young men who came to deliver the goods together, and hurried back with the ox cart.Everyone is waiting for the last batch of payment.
As soon as they entered the village, Hongqi and the others were warmly welcomed by the aunts and aunts.Everyone stared at Hongqi with fiery eyes, to be precise, at Hongqi's bulging chest.Don't get me wrong that they are not serious, because Hongqi put all the money in that place, which looks very big.
"Hongqi, what's the matter? Have you settled the payment today?"
"Hongqi, do you want to divide the money today?"
"Hongqi, is the supply and marketing cooperative really selling so well?"
……
No wonder they feel miraculous.At the beginning, when the captain put forward the proposal of building a factory, many people scoffed.Everyone said that the captain was just messing around, and that he might as well open up two acres of land if he has this spare time, and collect more food to subsidize the family.Only those good brothers who play with Hongqi support it.
Because white sugar and a large number of wooden barrels are used to brew wine, even if the factory is approved, there is no way to start work.Later, Wu Jun came back from vacation and held a meeting with the team.After introducing this matter, it is really possible to make money, and even pulled out Li Gong, a city resident, to speak out.In the end, of course, it was Hongqi who shared the barrel of wine in the warehouse at home for everyone to taste, which made these old farmers believe that this matter could be successful.
Originally, Hongqi thought that this matter was the same as the last time he bought ducklings. People from their Wu family secretly partnered to make the deal.It was only stopped by Li Gong.If they really make money because of this wine, they are afraid that those who failed to partner in will make trouble.At last they discussed this method.
Touching the bag of money in his bosom, Hong Qi jumped off the bullock cart and went back to the brigade first to pay the bill.
Many people follow along when they have nothing to do.
Because it is a collective factory, the accounts are open and transparent from the beginning.Now the volume of goods is not large, and a piece of red paper is used to record the details of each shipment and payment.This paper was pasted on the bulletin board of the brigade, where everyone could see it.
Accountant Wu took the paper bag from Hongqi and began to count.
At the end of the year, they produced a total of 280 barrels of wine.The remaining 10 barrels will be distributed by the brigade at the end of the year, and all the rest will be sent to the supply and marketing cooperatives for sale.Excluding sugar, wooden barrels and other expenses, the final profit was 850 yuan.Although it is not a lot for each person, it does not take many days to make wine.It's a bargain indeed.
"Wow, if there are grapes to make wine all year round, then our brigade will get rich."
"Hey, you are so beautiful. These are grapes, not Chinese cabbage. Chinese cabbage doesn't grow all year round. With such extra income, we all have to laugh."
"I'm going to buy some cloth after I've divided the money."
Everyone's topic has changed from how to divide money to make a fortune to spending money.Some aunts don't think they are usually stingy, but they are already planning to spend the money to buy some defective cloth or meaty bones that don't cost tickets, so that the family can live a good life.
"Uncle Dali, I'll go home first after ordering." After Hong Qi finished speaking, she pushed aside the crowd and left.He didn't notice that there was a pair of beautiful eyes following his figure closely in the crowd.
When Hongqi returned home, there was no one there, only a few dogs playing wildly.
He simply sat on a small bench in the yard and tickled his dogs.It is too cold in winter to dare to bathe them.You can only groom them by yourself.
While combing, I was thinking about what my mother said yesterday: You are 21 years old this year, are you still looking for a partner?Mother is worried that the older you get, the less likely you will be able to find a good girl.If you have a regular job in the city like Yunzi, then I'm not worried.Although your father is the captain, you don't have any special attractive conditions.Many people dislike marrying without the help of brothers, and they are meaningless to you.
Hongqi knew that the old lady was doing it for her own good.He does not have a job in the city, but he has learned a craft, and now he can help the brigade make money.As Junzi said, when the market stabilizes, he can find ways to expand production.That annoying Li Gong is right, there is a future for their brigade to make this wine.
Although Wu Hongqi is not a big shot, he also wants to benefit the brigade just like his cousin.The large amount of white sugar that will be used in this brewing is because my cousin helped to contact the person in charge of the sugar factory to get such good quality white sugar at such an affordable price.
At first he went to the sugar factory, but when they saw that his letter of introduction was just a small factory in the countryside, they ignored him.If it weren't for Junzi's help in making connections, the winery in their brigade would not have made such a high profit this year.
Thinking of my cousin, I envied that he could work in the county.There, you can definitely see a wider sky and meet more interesting people.
The dog groomed by Hong Qi saw him in a daze, so he washed his face with his tongue, and called the dazed master back.
Hong Qi regained consciousness, blaming himself for getting into a dead end.Individuals have their own destiny.Maybe my cousin in the county is envious that I can go to his house to chat with grandparents every day.
The optimistic red flags are back.Stand up and prepare to go out to find briquettes and they talk about it.It's a pity that when he opened the gate of the courtyard, he saw this person who he wanted to see but was afraid to see again.
"Hongqi, my family just sent me something, this is for you."
Hong Qi looked at the can of meat handed to him, speechless.He likes to eat canned meat, but he can't accept what this person gives.He didn't want to owe her something, because he would owe more and more, and eventually he couldn't pay it back.
Liu Honghua just held the can, and she wouldn't let go until the red flag was picked up.
Seeing her persistent actions, Hong Qi had no choice but to let her in was even more impossible.Lest the plums in the melon field fall into the limelight.
He also didn't know why Liu Honghua was so obsessed with him.He was just the son of an old farmer with no special skills.However, seeing Liu Honghua's efforts to take root here, he would sometimes help her.After going back and forth like this, she cared more about herself.
Of course, Hongqi himself doesn't understand these things.He only knew that sometimes he saw her working so hard and wanted to help.
"You don't have to avoid me like this. This canned food is just to thank you for your help. I have a letter from my family, and they have already helped me find a job. After the Chinese New Year, I will go back to the city." Liu Zhihua finished. After saying this, he took a deep look at Hongqi, put the can in his hand on the ground, turned and left.
Hongqi looked at her leaving back with a look of loss.
Because he knew that his parents would not agree with him dating an educated youth.Therefore, he has been avoiding Liu Honghua's overtures.But, when he knew she was going back to the city, why did his heart start to ache?Shouldn't he be happy for Liu Zhiqing at this time?
The dog in the yard seemed to feel the loss of its owner, and leaned against him without saying a word, trying to make the owner feel a little warm.
Liu Honghua quickly ran back to the educated youth spot.I saw Su Qing cleaning up the chicken coop in the yard, and Wei Hongling had already asked for leave to go back to the city to visit relatives.She asked softly: "Su Qing, do you regret going to the countryside and coming here?"
Without waiting for Su Qing's answer, she said again: "I don't regret it. Although I hated the backwardness here at first. However, the people here are so kind to us, and I have learned a lot here. You say, I even raise The pig has learned it, why doesn't he believe that I will stay here forever?"
Su Qing looked at the tearful Liu Honghua: "He is not alone, he has parents. If he goes against the wishes of his parents and stays with you, do you think such a man is reliable?"
Su Qing had known for a long time that Liu Honghua secretly liked Hongqi.It's just that she thought that Liu Honghua's liking would soon end with the passage of time.After all, Hongqi saved her several times at that time.It's perfectly normal to have a good impression of a savior, especially a handsome savior.
Unexpectedly, Liu Honghua actually learned to do farm work, learned to integrate into the village, and finally went to a pig farm to learn the skills of raising pigs.All this is just to let the sweetheart see his efforts.It's a pity that feelings are sometimes not something you can get through hard work.
"After the new year, you will go back to the city. After you go back to work, slowly, you will forget the people here."
Through tears, Liu Honghua saw Su Qing's calm expression, and couldn't help asking: "Really? Will I really forget the people here? Will I forget him? But I don't want to forget, what should I do?" ?”
After finishing speaking, she threw herself on Su Qing's body, leaned her head on her shoulder, and cried like a child.
Su Qing looked at her hand that was still stained with chicken dung, and wanted to pat Liu Honghua comfortingly, but couldn't do it, so she could only freeze there.Hearing the sad cry beside her ear, a figure also flashed in her heart.However, she knew that she would never have any chance in this life, so she could only silently bless this person in her heart, wishing him all the best and a safe life.
Aunt Wu went home and wanted to make lunch. As soon as she entered the door, she saw her son standing in the yard stupidly, with a can on the ground.
Knelt down and picked up the can: "Son, is this Junzi back? Why did you put the can on the ground?"
Seeing that her son didn't respond, Aunt Wu hurried forward and touched his forehead: "I don't have a fever, what's the matter with you? Did you encounter any problems when you went to the supply and marketing agency today?"
Hong Qi swallowed her saliva, and said in a low voice: "Mother, I'm fine. I'll go back to my room to rest first."
After finishing speaking, he lifted his feet and went back to the room.However, after walking a few steps, he stepped back and took back the canned meat in the old lady's hand.
"What's the matter with this kid? You can't even bear to give your old lady a can?" As she said this, Aunt Wu became worried in her heart.
Hong Qi was lying on the kang, holding the can with one hand and looking at it. He didn't know what to do.
It stands to reason that when Liu Honghua said she was going back to the city, he should be happy to bless her.Anyway, having her parents, relatives and friends in the city is definitely better than staying here.However, he actually felt very unhappy.There was even an urge to ask her to stay.He, Wu Hongqi, is a man, and he cannot do such things that hinder people's progress.When Liu Honghua returned to the city, she would be able to find a city resident like her to marry and have children instead of staying in the village and working hard all day raising pigs.
"Yes, this is the right way. Wu Hongqi, you have to be a man." Hongqi brainwashed himself like this in his heart, as if talking too much, this is the right thing.
From this day on, anyone who is familiar with Hongqi knows that he is not happy.I am still very serious when I work every day, but I don’t laugh much, let alone talk about it with my friends.Aunt Wu worriedly mentioned to her husband that something was wrong with her son.Because, even his favorite meat, he doesn't like to eat it.However, Uncle Wu felt that a man should be so calm, and his son was normal except for not talking every day.
Aunt Wu can only hope that Wu Jun will come back from vacation soon, and it will be fine when his nephew comes back.The two of them have a good relationship, so they should be able to ask something.
Wu Jun came back when Aunt Wu was looking forward to the stars and the moon.
Sitting in the back seat of Li Gong's car with big bags and small bags, the two went back to the Red Star Team for the New Year together.
As soon as she got home, Wu Jun saw her auntie come to her house even before her butt was warmed up.
"Auntie, what's the matter?" Seeing her anxious look, Wu Yun hurried forward.
"Junzi, it's your cousin who has something to do. Listen to me..."
Wu Yun didn't have a clue after listening to what the auntie said.Let Li Gong pack up his things, and he followed his aunt to her house. "Junzi, why is your friend coming to our brigade to celebrate the New Year again this year?" Aunt Wu breathed a sigh of relief after talking about her son, and was in the mood to ask about these things.
Wu Jun didn't intend to let his uncle and auntie know about him and Li Gong in a short time.Hearing this, he just explained lightly that his family members didn't have time and brought them over.
When she saw her cousin, Wu Jun couldn't see what was wrong with him.After all, no one has ever seen haggard or thinned.However, this face is quite serious.
Hong Qi took a look at his old lady and knew what she wanted to do.It's just that he can't say this kind of thing, otherwise it will ruin Liu Honghua's reputation.
"Brother, I just came back, don't you invite me to sit down and have a rest and have a cup of tea?" Wu Jun said, wrapping his arms around his cousin's shoulders, patted his shoulders and said with a smile as he did when he was a child.
Hongqi cheered up and said a few words to his cousin.
It was only then that Wu Jun realized that the aunt hadn't exaggerated.His cousin, it seems, should, must have encountered something! !
Wu Yun rolled her eyes: "Brother, go to your room. I have something good for you." After speaking, he grabbed his cousin's shoulders and dragged him into the room.
Hong Qi reluctantly followed Wu Jun's pace.
"Brother, it's just the two of us now. Tell me what you're unhappy about, and I'll see if I can help you?" Wu Jun hammered his exercising waist, and scolded Li Gong in his heart.
"Junzi, I..."
"Brother, don't say you're fine. We grew up together, who doesn't know who? You can see that you are very unhappy. If you have something unhappy to say, don't hold it back. We care about your people Watching from the side, I can only be anxious."
After Wu Yun finished speaking, she carefully observed her cousin's expression.Seeing that he was loose, he quickly added some firewood: "You don't know how much my aunt is worried about you. I think she has lost a lot of weight. As soon as I came back, I hurriedly dragged me over to see you."
Sure enough, when the filial cousin heard that his mother was worried about losing weight, he finally had an anxious expression on his face.His eyes unconsciously turned to his pillow.
Wu Jun looked up, and there was an ordinary canned food beside the pillow.
"Did you know? This can was given to me by Zhiqing Liu."
Wu Yun was stunned, realizing that her cousin was talking to him.
"She told me that she was going back to the city. It was right for me to wish her well. But now I feel very unhappy."
Hearing the words Liu Zhiqing, Wu Yun raised his forehead.He knew it was finally here.The cousin with a strong nerve really got the hang of it.It's just that it was too late.
"Brother, don't you want her to go back to the city?"
"I don't know. I think she's doing well, but I don't want to lose sight of her."
Listening to his cousin's literary words, Wu Jun didn't know if he should wake him up directly.According to secular thinking, the two of them have no future.Even if we are together now, sooner or later we will be separated as society changes.But, thinking about the relationship between myself and Li Gong, isn't it also very special in this era.Shouldn't he have more hope for human feelings?
"Junzi, do you think I'm a bad person?" Hong Qi babbled a lot of things, and finally asked.
Wu Jun gritted her molars hard: "Brother, I ask you a question, you have to answer it honestly."
Seeing his cousin's serious face, Hong Qi nodded.
"Do you want to see Liu Honghua marry someone else and have children?" After saying this, Wu Jun carefully observed his cousin's expression, trying not to miss any clues.
However, Hong Qi's expression didn't need Wu Jun's effort.Because upon hearing his words, Hong Qi's face became very dark, as if someone owed him 800 yuan.
Got it, Wu Yun thought.
"Brother, you want to marry her as your wife."
Hongqi was frightened by his cousin's words.
Marry... Marry her, can he really think so delusional?Thinking of this, Hongqi felt a strange sweetness in his heart.
Wu Jun couldn't see this silly smile on the face of his cousin with a Chinese face, and coughed a few times to bring his cousin back to his senses.
"Brother, since you already like her, from what you said, she must like you too. What's your plan? Do you want her to stay?"
Hong Qi was stunned when he heard his cousin's words: "Father and mother will never agree to us being together."
"Brother, if you really like someone, you can fight for it. If you try hard but fail, then there's nothing to say. But if you don't even work hard, you won't get anything."
Wu Jun said these inspiring words, he didn't know what would happen to his cousin and Liu Honghua in the future.However, at this moment, he wanted his cousin to see his thoughts clearly.
After saying these words, he patted his cousin on the shoulder and went home.
Hong Qi picked up the canned meat again, feeling unpredictable.
In the evening, after his parents came back, Hongqi threw a king bomb on the dinner table.
"Father, mother, what do you think of Zhiqing Liu?"
Aunt Wu, who was drinking soup, was so startled by her son's words that she spat out the soup.Fortunately, Uncle Wu had never seen any troubles, so he calmly swallowed the soup in his mouth before turning his head to look at his son.
Hong Qi was watching his parents nervously, but he had already thought clearly in one afternoon.
"Do you know what you're talking about?" Uncle Wu looked at his son seriously.
"Father, I've been thinking about it for a long time. I didn't have much in mind at first, but Liu Zhiqing told me that she was going back to the city after the Chinese New Year. I... I want to try to fight for it. It's fine if I succeed, and I'll give you a chance if I fail." I also admit it. However, I need to obtain your consent first."
Listening to what their son said, Uncle Wu and Aunt Wu fell into deep thought for a moment.It is a good thing that my son is responsible for doing things, but why did he suddenly come up with such an idea.
"Did Liu Zhiqing tell you something?"
Hearing his mother's words, Hong Qi quickly clarified: "Mother, she never said anything from the beginning to the end. I was tempted by myself."
"Do you know how dangerous it is to talk to an educated youth?" Uncle Wu, in this position, has seen many miraculous deeds of different educated youths in other brigades.Fortunately, the three educated youths left behind by their brigade were pretty good.
Hearing that his father didn't deny his problem outright, Hong Qi quickly answered: "Father, I thought about me. I'll go ask her."
"Since you are such an adult, if you think things through yourself, then do it. However, remember to keep a proper distance and don't embarrass the educated youth."
Hongqi didn't expect his parents to agree so easily, and ran out happily, planning to ask his cousin for help as a staff officer.
"Old man, is this okay? I'm worried..."
Uncle Wu stretched out his hand and patted the back of his wife's hand, and said, "Young man, let him try it! Your son is a measured man, so don't be afraid."
On this end, Hong Qi who ran into Wu Jun's house ignored Li Gong's eyes, and directly dragged his cousin to the yard outside, and told him the good news in the cold air.
"Brother, don't be too happy. Isn't Liu Zhiqing going back to the city soon?"
Hearing Wu Jun's words, Hong Qi didn't think there was anything wrong, because he had already made a decision.
Early the next morning, there were not many people on the road.Hongqi went out to the educated youth spot.On the way, Wu Yun was also called out.
"Brother, do you really want me to follow?" Wu Jun felt strange in his heart.Last night, my cousin asked him to go to the educated youth spot with him today.Saying that two people go together is less likely to cause people to gossip.
The two soon arrived at the educated youth spot.At this time, someone should be up.From afar, I saw smoke rising from the kitchen of the educated youth.
Su Qing opened the courtyard door and saw the two Comrade Wu, she felt a little clear in her heart.Get out of the way and let them in first.
"Safflower, someone is looking for you."
As soon as Liu Honghua came out, she saw the red flag, and her eyes couldn't help turning red.
"Comrade Wu, what is the reason why you came to see me?"
Wu Jun quickly stepped aside, he felt that he needed to give the person a little space for this kind of thing.Su Qing walked to him naturally and chatted with him.
Here, Hongqi moved his lips slightly, opened and closed his mouth several times, and finally said, "Don't cry."
After speaking, he touched his head a little embarrassedly.
"Comrade Liu, I have something very important to tell you this time."
Liu Honghua thought that Hongqi was going to tell the truth and reject herself, so she lowered her head and said nothing.
Seeing himself being avoided like this, Hong Qi wondered if everything was made up by himself?
Gritting her teeth, she still expressed her thoughts: "I want to ask you if you would like to have a date with me."
"I am willing."
"Let me tell you, I'm serious, I know I'm not good enough for you..." Hong Qi said a lot of words to himself, which he practiced many times in the room last night.Now that's backwards.Suddenly, the ears seemed to receive some information.He paused, then widened his eyes, looking at Liu Honghua in disbelief.
"You mean, would you? Really? Did I hear you right?"
Liu Honghua was amused by his appearance, and just nodded.
Very good!The villain in the heart of the red flag waved the banner of victory.
Then, the two stood in the yard like fools, looked up at each other from time to time, and laughed.After laughing, he lowered his head in embarrassment.Wu Yun looked at the two of them like this, greeted Su Qing, and retreated first, leaving Su Qing to eat dog food there.
Liu Honghua asked suddenly: "Hongqi, do you think your parents can really accept me?"
"I came to tell you with their consent." Hong Qi quickly replied.
"Then I won't go back to the city, I will stay here."
Hearing this, Hongqi quickly shook his head: "You'd better go back!"
Seeing Liu Honghua's expression changed because of these words, Hongqi hurriedly said, "I'm not driving you away. It's just that I've thought a lot during this time. I think you should go back to the city. Your parents love you so much, and you've always stayed behind." It's not good news for them here. We are still young, you have to believe me, I think I will be able to settle down in the city after a few more years of hard work. At that time, we can get married."
Yes, this is how Hongqi thought all night.He thought it would be better for Liu Honghua to go back to the city first.Because the job position is not easy to get, since she has worked hard to get it at home, she should go back first.Moreover, he also wanted to rely on his own efforts to win the consent of Liu Honghua's family.
If Liu Honghua felt that she was not a good match after returning to the city, it was okay to separate.He wanted Liu Honghua to have more choices, instead of impulsively staying in the brigade.Only by withstanding difficult feelings can we go further.
Of course, in the end Liu Honghua agreed to Hongqi's request.However, one of the two returned to the city, and the other stayed in the brigade.The distance not only did not weaken the relationship between the two, but because of this reason, both of them worked hard.
Hongqi later became the director of the Red Star Brewery, and Liu Honghua also became an officer of the Women's Federation in the city.Two years later, their marriage was very lively, and they envied those women in the village who gossip and say that there is something wrong with the red flag.
The author has something to say: Brother Hongqi has written so much for the episode, and tomorrow is Su Qing's episode.
