The Green Tea’s Crushing Victories in the ’70s - Chapter 26

[Chapter 26]

Park Jianyi almost died of laughter.

But Mr. Wen was so angry that Lao Jiang lost this fish to him at chess.

There is a saying in Lao Jiang’s hometown that if a person who celebrates his birthday asks someone who has fortune to make a plate of fish for himself, he will be able to have more than every year, and he will be as lucky as the other person in the future.

Old Jiang was full of children and grandchildren, and Mr. Wen felt that he was more fortunate than himself. He finally won a few games of chess and forced him to make fish for himself to eat, but before he could eat it, he ate it all for this stinky boy!

Can he be angry?

But he can’t say these words, otherwise, everyone will think that he is promoting feudal superstition!

Wen Rugui felt that she had never been so embarrassed in her life.

The reason why he ate all the fish just now was because he didn’t want his grandfather to know that Tong Xuelu had brought the fish, because once his grandfather knew, he would talk about tender grass in the future.

But they weren’t really dating, and he was worried that it would affect her reputation.

As long as he ate the fish, grandpa wouldn’t ask if he didn’t see it.

As for sharing the fish with Park Jianyi?

Sorry, he didn’t think about it.

It’s just that he never thought that the fish was not given by Tong Xuelu, but made by Lao Jiang himself, which…it was very embarrassing.

Wen Rugui ignored Park Jianyi, who was laughing so hard, and coughed: “Grandpa, I’ll cook it for you when I go back.”

“I’m going to eat what Lao Jiang cooks himself!” Mr. Wen snorted from his nostrils and stood up, ” Xiaozong, I remember that Lao Jiang caught a lot of fish today, so let’s go over there and ask if there is any live fish, and let him make another one for me to eat!”

Wen Rugui: “…”

To be honest, Grandpa Jiang’s cook The art is really not good, the steamed fish just now was a bit raw.

He didn’t quite understand why the old man insisted on eating the fish made by the other party himself.

Old Man Wen took Uncle Zong to Jiang’s house in a hurry, and only Pu Jianyi was left laughing in the hall.

Wen Rugui glanced at him, and said in a light voice: “comrade Tong, don’t talk about it when you look back.”

Pu Jianyi wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes: “I thought you told her that today is the old man’s birthday, so she deliberately It’s delivered today.”

Wen Rugui paused for a while: “…I thought you told her to you.”

Pu Jianyi grinned: “Where would I tell her this? Come on, it was a coincidence misunderstanding. Yes, but you don’t have to rush to swallow the whole fish by yourself, how does the fish taste?”

Wen Rugui didn’t say anything.

Pu Jianyi looked at him a few times and said, “I thought it was Comrade Tong who was interested in you, but now it seems that you are more interested in her, right?”

Wen Rugui’s eyelashes trembled, and his tone was cool. : “I remember your dad still didn’t know about you

borrowing money from me, right?”

Pu Jianyi hesitated for a second, and quickly begged for mercy: “Come on, I’ll talk nonsense, right? But you must not let my old man know about me borrowing money from you, or he will have to break my leg!”

Wen If he was undecided, he said in silence: “Why did she go to the Public Security Bureau again, hasn’t the Tong family’s matter been resolved?”

Pu Jianyi said with a “tsk”: “Speaking of her, she really has a fate with the Public Security Bureau, but this time she It wasn’t for the Tong family’s affairs in the past, it was a woman who was beaten by her husband and mother-in-law, and she was a witness in the past.”

“Speaking of which, that woman should really thank her, if she hadn’t persuaded the neighbors to be witnesses, her husband and mother-in-law would have It will take two or three more years to come out, and now it will take at least five or six years.”

It turned out that she was trying to persuade those people.

When he heard what she said at the time, he also guessed a little bit, which was why he didn’t go in directly to expose her lies.

Now that she knew that she was lying to help others, the doubt in her heart disappeared.

There are many people in this world who seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and more people choose to stand by and watch the suffering of others.

She can stand up so bravely as a witness, and persuade others to come out as witnesses and tell a little lie, in his opinion, it is actually harmless.

But thinking of the sentence she said, “My partner’s surname is Wen”, his heart moved slightly, and the tips of his ears were a little red under the light.

**

Tong Xuelu went to work in the textile factory as usual the next day. In order to relieve the panic of the previous injury, she pulled down her bangs and covered her forehead.

Except for Tong Jiaming, she never mentioned changing jobs to anyone.

The Xu family finally returned the money they owed to her, and Zhou Fang also started to go to work.

Most of the people in the compound expressed understanding that Tong Xuelu didn’t go back to the countryside with Beihe’s old family, but there were many people who said sour words.

The Xu family consciously received Tong Xuelu’s great favor, and helped her to say good things everywhere. If they encountered trouble, Mother Xu would be the first to pounce on the other party.

In this way, the rumors in the compound were torn apart by Mother Xu without Tong Xuelu’s own shot.

A week later, when Tong Xuelu was so tired that she had a spondylosis, there was finally news from Su Xiuying.

He Baogen and Mrs. He were convicted of abusing and insulting women. Both were sentenced to five years and will soon be sent to the farm for rehabilitation.

When Su Xiuying decided to report her husband and mother-in-law, she sent her daughter to her parents’ home in advance. After she came out of the Public Security Bureau, she did not go back to where, but went directly to her parents’ home.

When her family saw her come back with a bruised nose and a swollen face, they were so angry that they scolded He Baogen for not being a human being.

Su Xiuying felt a chill in her heart, but no matter how chilled she was, she couldn’t tear herself apart from her parents’ family.

She has already done such “rebellious” behavior. If she breaks up with her parents’ family again, she will really have no way to stand in Beijing.

Then she told her family that she had reported He Baogen’s mother and son.

As she expected, the people from her family’s family blew up on the spot, pointed at her nose and cursed her for a while, and asked her to withdraw the report quickly.

She looked at her family’s family blankly, and immediately proposed that her second nephew would take over He Baogen’s job.

The house was quiet.

Needless to say later, the attitude of her mother’s family immediately changed 360 degrees, accusing He Baogen and Mrs. He that they were not human beings, and expressed that they would definitely support her.

She sneered in her heart, but did not show it on her face, and then went to the steel factory with her family to go through the formalities.

When the people in the steel plant knew that Su Xiuying had reported the two mothers and sons of He Baogen and gave up his work position to his own nephew, they were so shocked that they could put a shoe in their mouth.

After the shock, everyone accused her of having no conscience, especially the relatives of the He family who wanted to come up to beat her with their sleeves rolled up.

It’s just that this time she didn’t need to come forward, her family rushed in front, scolded a group of people, and shouted to go to the Public Security Bureau to report them.

Because He Baogen’s example was in front, everyone else was immediately scared.

Seeing that her family members came forward for her, Su Xiuying’s heart did not fluctuate at all.

After finishing the formalities, she bought fruit candy and snacks the next day to find Tong Xuelu by car.

Su Xiuying came over at the time, and Tong Xuelu came to the door just after she finished eating.

Seeing Su Xiuying, Tong Xuelu’s eyes lit up: “Comrade Su, you are here!”

After not seeing her for a week, the bruises on Su Xiuying’s face have faded a lot, and her face is not as haggard as before. Although she still looks very thin, she is in good spirits.

Su Xiuying handed over the fruit candy and snacks, and whispered, “Their verdict has finally come.”

He Baogen and Mrs. He’s verdict will not come down for a day, and she will not feel at ease for a day, let alone exchange jobs with Tong Xuelu, so as not to look back implicated her.

Now that the verdict is over, she and He Baogen have also divorced, and she can finally rest assured.

Tong Xuelu looked at the things she bought and declined: “It’s fine if you come here, you don’t need to buy anything.”

“It should be, you helped me so much!”

Su Xiuying smiled and looked up to see the house There were three other children in the room, so he asked, “Is this your brother and sister?”

“Yes, it’s my two brothers and sister.”

Tong Xuelv nodded and asked Tong Jiaming and others to call.

Tong Mianmian is the cutest.

She ran over with her short legs, raised her head and said in a milky voice, “Hello, sister, I’m my sister’s sister, my name is Mianmian, and I’m three years old this year.”

She said with four fingers . , that look is so cute and cute, it will melt people’s hearts.

Su Xiuying looked at Tong Mianmian, who was about the same age as her daughter, and her heart softened. She took a handful of fruit candies and stuffed it and said, “Good boy, take it and eat it.”

Tong Mianmian didn’t take it. .

Tong Xuelu rubbed her little head, nodded and said, “Take it.”

Only then did Tong Mianmian accept the candy that Su Xiuying had put over, revealing the small dimple on the corner of her mouth with a sweet smile: “Thank you, sister, Mianmian, little sister. You put the candy in the cotton bag.”

Seeing this, Tong Xuelu couldn’t help but burst out laughing.

This little clever ghost also knows that pockets can hold more candy.

The smile on Su Xiuying’s face became wider, she filled her two small pockets, and grabbed a handful of fruit candies for Tong Jiaming and Tong Jiaxin.

The two brothers thanked them shyly, and took Tong Mianmian out to play.

Tong Xuelu asked Su Xiuying to sit down and poured her a glass of water: “Is everything done?”

Su Xiuying took a sip of water and twitched her mouth slightly: “It’s done, the verdict is over, the marriage is divorced, my parents They also promised to help me take care of the children.”

When Tong Xuelu saw her mentioning her parents, a flash of self-mockery flashed on her face, she guessed a few points in her heart, but didn’t ask any further questions.

Su Xiuying looked at the house and asked curiously, “Why didn’t you see your parents? Did you go shopping?”

“They were in a car accident a few months ago.”

Su Xiuying apologized quickly with an “ah” sound. : “I’m sorry, I didn’t know it was like this…”

Tong Xuelu waved her hand: “It’s alright, you don’t need to worry about it, by the way, I told Comrade Huang before about my adoptive parents.”

Then she briefly explained her life experience a moment.

After listening to Su Xiuying, she sighed faintly: “I didn’t expect it to be easy for you.”

Before, she saw that Tong Xuelu was dressed differently from ordinary people. She was beautiful and had a good temperament. She thought she was being held in the palm of her hand. Growing up, I didn’t expect her experience to be so rough.

Her younger brother and younger sister are still young, and it is not easy for her to shoulder the burden of the family alone.

Tong Xuelu didn’t feel sorry for himself: “Comrade Su must cheer up, under the leadership of the party, our life will be better and better!” In

two years, the reform and opening up will begin, and the economy will develop rapidly by then. Everyone Days will change dramatically.

She is looking forward to this day.

Seeing her confident smile, Su Xiuying couldn’t help being encouraged: “You’re right, life will always get better and better!

” Go to the factory.

**

When she came to the factory, Tong Xuelv first went to the workshop to find Director Ma, and told her that she was going to change jobs with others.

Hearing this, Director Ma was so shocked that his mouth could not close: “Xuelu, are you leaving? When is this going to happen?”

Tong Xuelu: “A sister I know is going to move here, and her job in the city will be limited. I can’t continue working, so I discussed changing my job.”

This was the rhetoric she negotiated with Su Xiuying, not to mention Su Xiuying’s report on her husband and mother-in-law.

It takes an hour or two by car from the urban area to Yanqing County, and her news should not be able to get here in half an hour.

“It’s in the city, so you brothers and sisters have to move out together? By the way, what station are you going to change?”

Director Ma likes this young man like Tong Xuelu very much. Go, I am very sad.

Director Ma is a generous person and takes good care of herself, and Tong Xuelv is also quite reluctant to her: “I changed the position of a waiter in a state-run hotel.”

When the people in the workshop heard that she was going to work in a state-run hotel, they were immediately in an uproar.

“Comrade Xiao Tong, how did you change your job? Did your adoptive parents find you a relationship?”

“I think so, aren’t her adoptive parents a high-ranking official? Change her to a state-run hotel. Isn’t it easy to get a job?”

“It’s really different from the same people, the luck of Comrade Tong is so enviable!”

Tong Xuelu told them that it was not her adoptive parents who helped her, but she was drooling. No one believed her, she simply didn’t explain.

Then she and Director Ma went to find the factory manager.

When the factory manager knew that she was going to change jobs, he was also surprised: “Have you thought about it? If you are in the factory, I can take care of your brothers and sisters. If you go outside, it will not be so convenient.”

Tong Xue Green nodded: “Thank you, the factory manager, I’ve thought about it clearly, and thank the factory manager for taking care of our family these days!”

Speaking of which, the leaders of this factory are all very good people. After the couple left, Tong Dajun and his wife have been taking good care of them. Tong family several children.

It’s just that being a weaver is too tiring, no matter how nice she is, she doesn’t want to stay.

Seeing that her attention had been fixed, Director Yu sighed and did not persuade her any further.

The next procedure is very fast.

After completing the formalities here, Tong Xuelv and Su Xiuying drove to the state-run hotel to complete the formalities.

Unlike the people in the textile factory who were reluctant to part, the people in the state-run hotel knew that Su Xiuying was leaving, and they were so happy that they set off firecrackers to celebrate.

In particular, a waiter named Tan Xiaoyan stared at Su Xiuying with swollen eyes and mocked: “Sister Xiuying, are you leaving because you can’t keep up?” Su Xiuying pursed her lips and

said nothing.

Tan Xiaoyan saw that she didn’t speak, and became more arrogant: “Just don’t speak? I guess it’s the same! If I were you, I might have lost face!”

“But I won’t do it like you, Sister Xiuying, you What do you think? No matter how bad Brother Baogen is, he is still your husband and Xiaoqiu’s father, why is your heart so vicious?”

Su Xiuying’s face seemed to be drained of blood, and instantly turned pale.

Tong Xuelv remembered this waiter, the swollen and arrogant waiter she saw last time when she came to look for Su Xiuying.

At that time, she was one sister Xiuying, and she thought she had a good relationship with Su Xiuying, but she didn’t expect to speak so bitterly.

But she didn’t plan to stand up for Su Xiuying, Su Xiuying must learn to face and digest herself.

The procedures in state-run restaurants are simpler than those in textile factories. The chefs of state-run restaurants need to be certified, but waiters are not required, as long as the signature of the manager of the state-run restaurant is sufficient.

Liu Dongchang, the manager of the state-run hotel, did not want Su Xiuying to do it here.

So knowing that Su Xiuying was leaving, he waved his hand and signed his name to let her go.

After coming out of the state-run hotel, Su Xiuying’s face was still ugly.

Tong Xuelu softly reassured: “Comrade Su, are you alright?” Su

Xiuying twitched the corners of her mouth: “I’ve heard this kind of thing a lot these days, don’t worry, I’m fine! By the way, you can stay in the city after you come to the city. Where is it? Have you found the house?”

Tong Xuelu sighed inwardly and shook her head: “Not yet, I went to the housing management office before, but the houses sold were too expensive, I really couldn’t afford it.”

Su Xiuying : “I haven’t found someone to take over my house for the time being. If you don’t have a place to live, you can live in my house, and you don’t need to pay the rent.”

Tong Xuelv quickly waved her hand: “This is not possible! The job of a state-run hotel is already I took advantage of you, the rent must be paid!”

Judging from the current situation, she could only rent a house with Su Xiuying.

The Tong family over there may be able to help her, but firstly, she is no longer the daughter of the Tong family, and secondly, the Tong Zhenzhen thing happened last time.

Therefore, Tong Xuelu never thought to ask them for help.

**

After parting with Su Xiuying, Tong Xuelu wanted to go back by car, but suddenly remembered that she wanted to give Wen Rugui a gift.

The last time she asked Pu Jianyi about Wen Rugui’s taste, she originally wanted to find an opportunity to send him the food he made, but when she went back and asked, she realized that the scientific research center was not in the urban area at all.

It takes at least three or four hours to travel from Yanqing County to Zhongguang Village. If you add the wait for the bus, it is estimated that it will take five or six hours to arrive.

At such a long distance, she didn’t know if the fish was sour or not, but she would definitely get motion sickness and vomit to death.

And she couldn’t take any more leave, so she had to give up.

Now that she has changed jobs, she has just a little time, and she thought about giving the thank you gift.

Wen Rugui’s home should be in the city, she doesn’t know when he will come back, and she doesn’t know where his home is, so it’s best to ask him.

This year, only the post and telecommunications office and the unit have telephone calls, so Tong Xuelu turned and walked towards the post and telecommunications office.

She still remembered the phone number Wen Rugui gave her.

The person who answered the phone was a cold young female voice: “Scientific research center, who are you looking for?”

“Hello, I’m looking for Comrade Wen Rugui Wen.”

Hearing Tong Xuelu’s crisp voice on the other end, he paused and said slowly: ” Wait.”

Five or six minutes later, there was still no movement on the other side.

Tong Xuelu watched the time go by every minute and every second, and her heart ached very much. The phone bill was 10 cents a minute!

Just when she was hesitating whether to hang up and call again later, the phone on the other end was finally picked up.

A warm voice came from the other end of the phone: “I’m Wen Rugui.”

“Hello Comrade Wen, I’m Tong Xuelu.”

Hearing Tong Xuelu’s voice, Wen Rugui’s eyelashes trembled slightly. Looking up, I saw the operator staring at me.

He turned around and said in a low voice, “Hello, Comrade Tong, do you have anything to do with me?”

Tong Xuelu asked playfully, “Can’t I find you if I have nothing to do?”

“…”

Wen Rugui was at a loss for words . , No one has ever asked him this way before, he paused and said, “Of course it is possible.”

Tong Xuelv heard a brief silence on the other end, imagining his expression, and the smile on the corner of his mouth became stronger.

But the two were not familiar with him, so she stopped teasing him: “Thanks to Comrade Wen’s help twice before, I heard Comrade Park say that you like to eat fish, and it happens that I am very good at cooking, so I want to make a pickled fish for gifts. As a thank you gift, don’t you know when Comrade Wen is convenient?”

Wen Rugui: “Comrade Tong, you are welcome, I am just doing my best.”

Tong Xuelu: “I knew you would say that, but Comrade Wen, you help If I can’t thank you for so much, I’ll feel uneasy, Comrade Wen, do you really have the heart to see me live in unease every day?”

Wen Rugui: “…”

Her voice was soft and tender Yes, there was a trace of grievance in his tone, which made people unable to bear to refuse.

Wen Rugui paused: “I’ll go back to the city tomorrow.”

Tong Xuelu smiled and said, “That’s great, I knew Comrade Wen, you are a good and considerate person! Then I’ll make fish tomorrow and send it to me. You, where do you live?”

“Military compound.”

“Okay, then we will see you tomorrow afternoon.”

“Okay.” See you.
