Seventy cannon fodder is a ruthless man

Chapter 348
Wang Guilan yelled at Zhu Chunzhi and his wife at the door, while Meng Tao was talking to the Zhu family siblings in the room, and it was impossible not to hear them.

The brought things are piled up in the main room, and school supplies such as food, new clothes, shoes and socks, fabrics, books and stationery are taken care of by Wang Guilan and Zhang Zhaodi. Basically, everyone in the family can get a gift.

The smell of food wafted from the kitchen, and Zhu Chunhong yelled that it was time to cook.

There are a lot of people in her own family, guests and relatives in the village. Wang Guilan arranges three tables, two tables for men and one table for women. Zhang Zhaodi arranged for her to sit on the inside, so that no one would crowd her, and put all the good and hard dishes in front of her, and listened to Zhu Chunhong's advice, and did not help carry the vegetables according to the city's custom, which made Meng Tao feel embarrassed, and everyone was polite to each other After letting go, we started eating. It was already past lunch time, and everyone was hungry.

After the lively meal, the mothers-in-law and mothers sat around and chatted for a while, and several village neighbors went back first, and each family had its own work.

Wang Guilan told Meng Tao: "I came here by car from a long distance today. I'm tired. Let's take a rest and get ready. We'll go to the grave tomorrow morning."

Meng Tao: "Aunt Cousin, there is no need to prepare anything, I have brought incense and candles."

Wang Guilan waved her hand: "No, no matter how strict we are in the countryside, everyone has ancestors after all, but it's better to hide people behind their backs, so as not to have some pink-eyed people jumping out and making trouble. We living people are not afraid of quarrels, but we can't let our ancestors uncomfortable."

Zhang Zhaodi went on to say: "The team leader said that when the workers are called tomorrow morning, they will arrange for all the commune members to go to work on the south slope, and there will be no one on the north slope. Then we will do what we want to do."

Meng Tao nodded in gratitude: "I let everyone worry about it."

"Hey, what are you worried about? They are all relatives, shouldn't that be?"

Zhang Zhaodi said again: "If you want to take a look around the village, wait for your sister Chunhong to come and ask her to accompany you. Last year, your sister Chunhong led a team of 'women's army' to join the county to do it. She won the first prize in the group in the wheat harvesting competition, and the photo she took was even published in the newspaper, and now she is called to participate in any meeting of the brigade, and she is also a cadre."

"That's right, Sister Chunhong is really amazing."

"That's not!"

Zhang Zhaodi laughed so hard that she couldn't see her teeth. The eldest daughter is promising and married well. She is honored.

After four o'clock in the afternoon, Shen Yu came to Meng Tao and said that his cousin Zhu Manjin was going to take them out for a walk, and asked Meng Tao if he wanted to go together, of course Meng Tao would go, Wang Guilan and Zhang Zhaodi let Zhu Chunxing and Zhu Chunhong accompany them They have all given birth to children and know how to take care of Meng Tao.

A group of eight or nine people walked through the village road, and they knew more or less the situation of the whole village under Zhu Manjin's explanation. Zhu Manjin led them all the way out of the end of the village, and arrived at a mountain nest. There were several houses in front of them, some with tiles and thatched huts. The place where Guan Xiuzhi gave birth to Meng Taohua.

Zhu Manjin said that at that time there was only a courtyard with earthen walls, two thatched huts and a livestock shed surrounded by wooden fences. The sheep are taken care of by two old people, and now the livestock shed has been moved to another place. The newly built tile houses are the educated youth spots, and the educated youths are housed in the team.

The earth courtyard and thatched cottage left by the two old people are still owned by the Zhu family, but they have been refurbished, and now Zhu Chunlin lives. He works.

The two extra families nearby were moved out of the village in recent years. The young couples who had been separated from each other thought this place was leeward and quiet. It is estimated that some people will move here in the future, and a small new village will gradually form here.

Zhu Manjin pushed open the firewood gate of the small courtyard, and everyone walked in together. Both Shen Yu and Meng Zhehan looked back at Meng Tao, who shook his head at them, expressing that he was fine.

Zhu Chunhong held Meng Tao's arm, and Zhu Chunxing was worried that she would be sad, so she patted her shoulder lightly to comfort her.

Meng Tao felt a little depressed and uncomfortable, and sighed twice: Guan Xiuzhi is worthless, Meng Shaoan is a scumbag, there is no reason to abuse himself for him, hiding in this kind of place to give birth, lack of doctors and medicines, and inexperienced. There is no way at all!
Young and ignorant, the price is too high.

The small courtyard should have long since lost the traces of the past, and Zhu Chunlin has cleaned it up very cleanly. The thatch on the roof has been replaced many times, and the color is fresh. With the fragrance of wood shavings.

There are also several finished kang cabinets and semi-finished wardrobes. The carved flowers and birds are intricate and exquisite. The craftsmanship is really very good. Zhu Chunlin is only 23 years old. By the way, master, I also study hard, study hard and practice hard.

Zhu Chunlin was not at home today. Zhu Manjin said that the brigade sent Zhu Chunlin and the tractor driver to a commune a hundred miles away to exchange grain, and they might not return until evening.

Zhu Manjin also took everyone to see the old village road that He Lian passed on his back. Lian woke up and shouted hard, only to be discovered by the passing villagers, but it was too late, the dog egg hit her head, and it was impossible to save her life.

Zhu Manjin was talking about the past, his eyes were red, and this matter had been in his heart for many years. In fact, he planned to go to Hongsong Town to find He Lian and tell Guan Xiuzhi about it, but Guan Xiuzhi said that he had already written a letter and told him not to go. At that time, Zhu Manjin thought that farm work was also very important, so he just thought about it and waited for it, who knew that something would happen soon... When he thinks about it these years, he blames himself very much. If the job at hand goes to Hongsong Town, there will be no such tragedies later.

Everyone felt heavy and didn't know what to say.

Zhu Chunxing and Zhu Chunhong didn't let Meng Tao get close to that road, they just stood there looking at it from a distance, and then dragged her back.

Meng Tao imagined the pain and helplessness of He Lian and Goudan rolling down the ravine, and couldn't help wiping away tears.

At night, it was completely dark after dinner. There are electric lights in this village, but rural people are reluctant to use high-wattage light bulbs, the kind of yellow light bulbs of about [-] watts, which are between dim and clear, Meng Tao feels. Very good, at least every corner can be illuminated, better than a kerosene lamp.

There were too many people, and there were still men and women, sitting around a big kang and chatting. The women chatted while eating melon seeds, teasing Zhu Chunhong's one-year-old little girl who was learning to speak, and Zhu Chunxing's two children were sitting on the kang. Running and jumping up and down, in the midst of the bustle, Zhang Zhaodi's little girl, 11-year-old Chunni, lifted the door curtain and ran into the room, shouting loudly:

"Auntie, Mom! Hurry up and go see...there is a fight outside the courtyard!"

Everyone was taken aback, Wang Guilan thought it was Zhu Chunzhi who came to make trouble at her mother's house again, so she got off the kang and put on her shoes, cursing: "Chunzhi dead girl, let's see how I deal with her!"

Chun Ni hurriedly said: "Ma'am, it's not Miss Chunzhi, it's that... Wang Aixiang, Wang Aibao's sister!"

"What? Wang Aixiang?"

"hold head high!"

Zhu Chunni nodded vigorously, but Wang Guilan stared and couldn't react.

Zhang Zhaodi held back the little girl: "Don't you read it wrong? Wang Aixiang has long since stopped dating your Brother Chunlin. What is she doing here?"

"Mom, there's nothing wrong with my eyes, it's Wang Aixiang! My brother Chunlin just came back from outside, and Wang Aixiang stopped me at the door, holding hands and arms, and what I said was disgusting! Sister Chunyan and I came from our house. Come over in the courtyard, look at the truth, Sister Chunyan said that Wang Aixiang was thick-skinned and ran away with the movie showman, and now he will pester me Brother Chunlin again, what do you mean? Wang Aixiang scolded Sister Chunyan for making up her without evidence, Sister Chunyan and Wang Aixiang scolded each other a few words, and they started fighting."

As Chunni chattered, Zhang Zhaodi hurriedly got off the kang, "What's the matter, brother Chunlin just stood there and watched them fight?"

"No, Brother Chunlin pushed Wang Aixiang, and Wang Aixiang sat on the ground covering her face and crying. He insisted on Brother Chunlin to help her up, and Brother Chunlin to send her home!"

Zhang Zhaodi: "..."

"What good thing do you want to send her home? Heh! At first she was the one who wanted to date her, but later she climbed up to someone who ate public food and said she didn't want us Chunlin. It made Chunlin depressed and sad for a few months. It's easy to get back some energy now, what kind of demon moth is coming out?"

Wang Guilan rushed out angrily: "I want to see, this Wang Aixiang's face has grown a few pounds!"

Zhang Zhaodi also followed, and before leaving, she called Chunxing again, and asked Chunhong and Chuncao to stay with Meng Tao in the room and not come out.

Meng Tao also doesn't like to watch such excitement, so it's better to tease the little milk baby for fun.

Wang Guilan and Zhang Zhaodi's fighting power must be stronger than Wang Aixiang's. The quarrel outside the courtyard gate ended after about half an hour, and then several people came back to the house one after another.

Zhu Chunlin was of medium height, strong, with handsome features and brilliant eyes. When Meng Tao saw him, he thought of the furniture he made.

Zhu Chunlin asked Wang Guilan to say hello to Meng Tao, and shyly called Cousin Huahua. Meng Tao called Cousin Chunlin back, complaining in her heart that she might not be able to get rid of the nickname "Huahua" in her life.

Zhu Chunlin went to the men's room, and Wang Guilan and Zhang Zhaodi talked about the process of tearing apart with Wang Aixiang at the gate of the courtyard, and Zhu Chunyan supplemented the description vividly by the side, which made everyone laugh.

Wang Guilan said: "This Wang Aixiang is really thick-skinned. People who are watching the fun outside, old and young, both men and women, she dares to call out in public what happened to us when Chunlin was dating her... Ouch, Even my old face can't stand it anymore, if this is my daughter, even if her leg is broken, she can't make her run out and make her look embarrassing!"

Zhu Chunxing hurriedly asked: "Oh my god, did our Chunlin do anything to her?"

Zhu Chunyan spoke quickly: "Then what's the matter? Can't the partner hold hands and kiss each other? It's like that in movies."

Zhang Zhaodi poked Zhu Chunyan's forehead with her index finger, and cursed in a low voice: "What do you know? You're just talking nonsense!"
