Seventy Buddha Cannon Fodder

Gu Xiuxiu stood at the door and waited for the three children to come back. When she saw them, she said, "It can be considered that I'm back, and the food is still hot for you."

She didn't eat it herself, and the children wanted to wait for them to come back to eat together.

After taking a bite of Gu Xiuxiu's cooking, Gu Mingdong gave a thumbs up: "It's delicious, Gu's cooking is really good."

Gu Xiuxiu happily picked up vegetables for him: "Eat more if it tastes good. When you were young, you loved the pickled vegetable stew made by your aunt the most."

When they were almost finished eating, Gu Xiuxiu asked, "What happened just now, what happened to Xiaohua?"

Bai Xiaohua used to come to play at home, Gu Xiuxiu still remembered her.

Sun Shumei pursed her lips and said nothing, but Gu Mingdong interrupted and said, "It's nothing serious, it's just that the folks in the village are bickering."

Gu Xiuxiu sighed and said, "Children nowadays are really ignorant, and those who are older than the Chinese New Year can't bear anything."

After eating, Gu Sanmei and Gu Simei refused to let her aunt do anything, so she was busy cleaning up the dishes, and Sun Shumei also went to help.

Gu Xiuxiu was finally willing to take a break, sat on the small bench by the door, and said, "Ah Dong, seeing you standing up, my younger siblings are also sensible, so my aunt is relieved."

Before she came here, she was very upset, but now she feels at ease.

"It's a pity for Lijuan..." Gu Xiuxiu couldn't help but sigh when mentioning her dead nephew and daughter-in-law.

She glanced at the twins who were playing wildly with Sun Qiang in the yard, and said in a low voice: "I heard from Xiaoxi that you rejected the matchmaker, so that's fine, your two sons are still young, and Lijuan has not passed away for a year. Don't worry about it."

"When Ah Xing and Ah Chen grow up and understand the matter, then Xiaoxi and Xiaobei should also go out, and it won't be too late to look for them at that time."

Gu Mingdong just said: "Gu, I really don't plan to look for it anymore."

Gu Xiuxiu frowned, and wanted to say how can you stop looking for someone at such a young age, and you can't spend the rest of your life as a bachelor.

But when she thought that her niece and daughter-in-law had only been away for less than a year, she swallowed the words in her stomach and said, "It's up to you."

The future will be discussed in the future, why should she say it after this to make people unhappy.

Gu Mingdong was afraid that she would mention this matter again, so he asked instead: "Gu, I heard from my cousin and Shumei that our town has also mobilized to go to the countryside?"

When mentioning this matter, Gu Xiuxiu was really worried, and said in a low voice: "It's just mobilization now, and it's not compulsory, but who can say for sure about this matter, I just hope it will be over after talking."

Gu Mingdong is not so optimistic: "I heard people say that the big cities started last year, sending people to the countryside in batches. I'm afraid it won't pass, and it will only get worse."

Gu Xiuxiu sighed: "I will go to your third uncle's house later and ask if there is any news from him. If this is true, I wonder if I can find a way to let Shumei come to Shanghe Village brigade."

Gu Mingdong only felt his eyelids twitch.

Gu Xiuxiu went on to say: "Each family can only leave one child at most. Your uncle and I really have no choice. There are only so many jobs in the town, and we can't find a place for your cousin to work."

"Ah Qiang was willing to let her sister go to the factory, but Shumei refused to agree, and said that if we forced her, she would rather go to support the Northwest. The Northwest is so cold and so far away. I don't know how many years it takes to go there return."

"I went out to inquire. According to the distribution, the southerners go to the north, and the northerners go there. But those who sign up and go to the countryside on their own initiative can choose, and they have a certain freedom."

"I discussed it with your uncle. If it really doesn't work, I'll find a relationship and let her go to the countryside. I will arrange it in the Shanghe Village Brigade. With you and Jianguo here, no one can bully her."

"Hey, it's easy to get out of this hukou, but it's hard to change into an urban hukou."

For the Sun family, this method is really impossible.

If it was in the past, the old Gu family had such a difficult time, Gu Xiuxiu would definitely not be relieved, but now that the old Gu family is getting better, Gu Xiuxiu will propose this method.

Gu Mingdong nodded and said, "Gu, then I'll accompany you to the third uncle's house."

"No, I'll go by myself. It's hard for you, a junior, to speak up." After speaking, he carried the gift and walked towards Gu Jianguo.

Gu Mingdong looked at the yard, and Sun Qiang was running wildly with Gu Liangxing on his neck, causing the child to scream. Gu Liangchen looked at it enviously, and kept shouting: "It's my turn, it's my turn, my cousin is also carrying me,"

In the winter, Sun Qiang was sweating profusely from playing, so he continued to run with another person.

Even though he didn't have much contact with her, Gu Mingdong could still feel that Sun Shumei was favored at home, and even Sun Qiang, who had always been vicious, loved her from the bottom of his heart.

So in the original trajectory, why did Sun Shumei marry Liu Dazhu?

No matter how you look at it, Liu Dazhu doesn't look like a good match.

With the current situation of the Sun family, even if there is no way to let Sun Shumei stay, it is better to find someone in the city to marry, or to let her come to the old Gu's house than to marry Liu Dazhu directly.

Maybe something happened to the Sun family that he didn't know about!

Gu Mingdong narrowed his eyes, his vigilant heart floated again.

After a while, Gu Xiuxiu came back with a smile: "Your third uncle promised to help and ask. If it works, it can be regarded as a way out."

Gu Mingdong nodded, and only said: "Shumei grew up in the town and has never farmed land. It's best to find a job."

"Who says it's not." Gu Xiuxiu sighed, but it's too difficult to find a job. There are many educated youths in the city who can't find a job after graduation. Why don't they all go to the countryside?

After seeing off his aunt's family, Gu Mingdong always felt that something was about to happen.

But he couldn't follow the Sun family, nor could he be with the Sun family all the time, so he could only wait and see what happened, and then find a solution when something happened.

Thinking of this, Gu Mingdong looked in the direction of the old Liu's house.

He was almost sure that Bai Xiaohua was wearing a book, if it was her own rebirth, the gap would never be so big.

It would be great if we could know the future fate of the Sun family from Bai Xiaohua's mouth. This idea came to Gu Mingdong's heart. He touched the position of his heart. In this green world, his abilities are constantly growing.

It's a pity that it's not a spiritual power, and it can't control Bai Xiaohua.

This book walker looks stupid and poisonous, definitely not the type who can communicate peacefully.

It was impossible for Bai Xiaohua to tell him of Bai Xiaohua's malice towards Sun Shumei.

Gu Mingdong had no choice but to suppress this idea first.

After the beginning of spring, the days passed quickly.

Tender greens have emerged on the top of the mountain, and those who are thrifty and housekeeping have begun to go up the mountain to pick wild vegetables, which can be used as food when mixed in porridge.

The work in the field also began to increase, but Gu Mingdong was thinking about studying.

As soon as Gu Mingdong found Gu Jianguo to talk about it, Gu Jianguo frowned: "Adong, Anan is not young anymore, he can help you with work at home, Xiaoxi Xiaobei is a girl's house, you send them all to school, How big is the burden at home?"

Third Aunt Gu also said beside her: "If you really want your younger siblings to study, just let Anan go."

It costs money to study, and you can't go to the farm to delay earning work points. Most of the girls in the production team don't go to school, and even the men mostly don't go to school until they graduate from elementary school. Gu Mingdong's original junior high school education is already first-class in the production team. one.

Gu Mingdong insisted: "Third Uncle, when my parents were still alive, they used to watch our brothers and sisters study, saying that only by studying can we be successful."

"Then they left, and they dropped out of school because they couldn't afford it. It wasn't because they got some bonuses a year ago, so I wanted to send them to study again."

Mentioning the deceased brother and sister-in-law, Gu Jianguo sighed, still feeling unreliable in his heart, and reminded: "Study is a good thing, but even if you go to high school these days, don't you have to go home and farm?"

"Even if you graduated from high school in the city, you can't find a job and you can't enter the venue. Shumei is one of them."

But Gu Mingdong insisted: "I don't ask them to be very promising, but at least they can read all the characters and get their junior high school diplomas."

Seeing that he insisted on going his own way, and remembering that Gu Mingnan had studied the first day of the first year, Gu Jianguo still nodded and said: "If you decide, Uncle San will help you escape this matter."

"But if you think about it, sending all three of them to study will put you under a lot of pressure."

Gu Mingdong nodded firmly: "I've already thought about it."

It's easy to study these days, as long as they pass the political examination, both older and younger can study. The only trouble is that the junior high school is in the town. From now on, Gu Sanmei has to go back and forth every day.

Gu Simei has to finish elementary school first, the elementary school is in the brigade next door, so there is no rush.

The production team was amazed when they saw that the old Gu's family sent the three children to study directly with a wave of their hands.

But it was Gu Erdi who reacted the most. When he heard that he was going to study, Gu Erdi's hair exploded: "Brother, I really don't want to go to study, I'm not that material."

"I didn't ask you to take the college entrance examination. You study honestly, at least mix up your diploma." After getting his junior high school diploma, if Gu Erdi really didn't want to study, Gu Mingdong didn't bother to bother him.

Gu Erdi was still muttering over there: "But I'm not a material for reading, and I get a headache when I read books."

"Brother, why don't I stay at home and work, and you go to study. When my mother was still alive, she always said that you are a material for studying. You will definitely be able to pass the high school entrance exam, and maybe you can also pass the college entrance examination."

Gu Mingdong slapped him on the back of the head: "How many work points do you get, and how many work points do I get?"

Gu's second younger brother Cui Tou suddenly became frustrated: "Then I can get it anyway, a lot throughout the year. Besides, I am one year older, and I will be able to get full work points in two years."

"It's decided."

Seeing his drooping head, Gu Mingdong added: "If you want to work, get up early every day, do the housework first, and come back to help at night, and you can get some work points throughout the year."

So it was settled.

Because it is far away from home, Gu’s second younger brother, Gu Sanmei, has to get up before dawn, fetch water, cook and clean up early, and then go to school. Gu’s fourth sister is close to home. Good twins eat breakfast before going out.

Gu Mingdong started to take the twins to work. The two children are sensible, they never play around in the fields, and they can help out occasionally. Gu Jianguo even joked that he would give them work points.

They also prepared lunch in advance, and Gu Mingdong could eat it as long as he heated it up.

In the evening, Gu Simei went home to cook first, and the second and third children went to help in the field when they came back.

After a period of time, the life of the old Gu's family was orderly, even getting better and better, but it surprised those who wanted to see a joke.

The old Gu's family lived peacefully and beautifully, but the old Liu's next door quarreled every day.

Ever since Bai Xiaohua went crazy that day and beat Liu Aihua, Widow Liu refused to swallow her anger any longer.

Widow Liu made up her mind to kill the temper of the new daughter-in-law, who knows that within a few days, Bai Xiaohua vomited.

Bai Xiaohua, who had a child, seemed to have a sword of Shangfang, and she became more and more arrogant.

In front of her future grandson, Widow Liu had no choice but to give her a little bit. During spring plowing, Bai Xiaohua lay down in the house under the pretext of being uncomfortable, and refused to go to the ground at all.

There was an extra person at the head of the family, but she and Liu Dazhu were the ones who did the work. The latter was still a foreign worker. Widow Liu had no choice but to let her daughter go to the field with her tears, leaving Liu Xiaozhu to do the housework.

The daughter-in-law was lying at home waiting for food and drink to be served by her uncle, and the mother-in-law took her sister-in-law to work in the fields, which was rare in the production team. For a while, everyone in the production team said that they really couldn't marry a daughter-in-law in the city, whether it was a daughter-in-law or an ancestor.

Liu Dazhu was so glorious when he married his wife, but now he is ashamed, but he himself doesn't feel it, he doesn't see the hard work of his mother and sister, and he only wants to let Bai Xiaohua give birth to a fat son.

Gu Mingdong looked at her coldly. Recently, Bai Xiaohua has been very honest. Apart from raising a baby and being picky about eating and drinking, she can't wait to leave the door.

Until around Grain Rain, the production team started busy transplanting rice seedlings.

Transplanting rice seedlings is the most tiring job. After a day's work, people are so tired that they can't stand up straight. But the crops don't wait for anyone, and even the school is on holiday.

I had to go into the water for transplanting rice seedlings, but at this time I hit the cold spring, my hands and feet were soaked in the cold muddy water, and my whole body was shivering from the cold.

It's cold above, and there are leeches in the ground below to suck blood.

In order to shorten the time, the big guys have to work for half a month, and they are so tired every day that their backs hurt.

Gu Mingdong was not proficient at the beginning, but after a day his speed far surpassed that of others. If there was a seedling transplanting competition at this time, his speed was faster than a chicken pecking rice, and he would definitely win the first place.

He has done a lot by himself, but he is afraid that the two younger sisters will not be able to survive the cold water and drive them to do other things. As for the second brother Gu, it doesn't matter if the boy is cold.

In the village, all the adults and children who can transplant rice seedlings, one by one, have all gone to the ground, but the old Liu's family still has one lying down to enjoy the blessings. How can the production team not complain.

The production team is not a childless person who can't do rice planting work, and can always do other light work. No one has ever been lying down all day, even asking the uncle to bring the food to the bed.

During this period of time, many people went to Lao Liu's side, saying that if Bai Xiaohua didn't work, she wouldn't be able to divide the work in a fair way. There was no reason for them to work so hard, so she just ate what was ready-made.

It's still old Liu who repeatedly promised that the work points of the production team will be distributed according to work, and that if you don't work, you will get nothing, and the villagers will stop.

The shriveled old Liu couldn't stand it anymore, so he urged a few words on the ridge that day: "Sister-in-law, Dazhu, you also persuade Xiaohua, since she is married to our production team, she can't do heavy and tiring work, and she can always do a little bit of other things." Do something? Then you can't stop working all the time, what does she eat if she doesn't work?"

Unexpectedly, Liu Dazhu flicked the mud: "She has my son in her stomach, and I will support her."

After finishing speaking, I said that I was tired, and went directly to the side to rest under the shade of a tree.

The shriveled old Liu turned blue with anger, and looked at Widow Liu: "Sister-in-law, you think so too?"

"Your family still owes foreign debts. Let me tell you in advance that the village will never lend you any more food this year."

Widow Liu's complexion was not good, she wanted her daughter-in-law to work, but she couldn't do it at all.

Her mouth was bitter, but she couldn't speak.

Who made it so clear that Liu Dazhu was won over by Bai Xiaohua, and now her mother's words are far less useful than his daughter-in-law's.

The shriveled old Liu had nothing to say, and before leaving, he said: "A Dong, don't rush to the field tomorrow, come with me to the town."

Gu Mingdong asked: "Captain, what's stopping me from working?"

"As for the brigade, Jianguo will count your work points for you when the time comes." Said the flat old Liu.

Soon Gu Mingdong knew what was going on, and Xiyuan Town was also assigned as a point of going to the countryside. The production team of Shanghe Village, as the outstanding production team of last year, was directly assigned to five educated youths.

The educated youth is coming!

The news spread throughout the production team of Shanghe Village. .
