Chapter 18 Misfits

"It's not that I didn't mention this matter, why bring it up again!" Gu Yuan was impatient, but he didn't dare to get angry.

Gu Linjun next to him was already tired and fell asleep, so Li Mei had no worries.

She pointed at the other party in a low voice and said: "Let me tell you Gu Yuan, you promised me back then, you divorced after two years of marriage, and now it's been a few years, you're talking fart!"

"My natal family said to pay part of the money. If your Gu family gets some more money, we will build a house. Where can you find such a good thing?"

"It's true that our Li family has money and nowhere to spend it! I think you're a deadhead!"

Their Li family's family conditions are very good, the family has a lot of labor, and they are carpenters and bricklayers, so they must make more money than ordinary team members.

Li Mei is the only girl in the family, so all the brothers treat her well.

Hearing these words, Gu Yuan lowered his head in silence.In fact, he also knew that this was a good thing. How could the father-in-law get money for helping his son-in-law build a house?

Although they didn't take all of it, some of it was quite a lot. At least their family didn't save much money now.

But when he thought that he was the son of Gu's parents, he couldn't say anything about agreeing.

If you agree to this, you can't let people point your spine and scold you when you go out in the future?

The second brother didn't have a family, so he couldn't agree to split the family no matter what.

"Meizi, I'm the eldest in the family, so just pretend that I don't know how to flatter you. We'll wait until the second brother gets married, otherwise I won't be able to agree to separate the family." His tone was firm and unquestionable.

Seeing him say that, Li Mei couldn't get angry, this is a dead brain!
But if the second brother is not married, there is really no way to separate the family. Thinking of this, she stopped mentioning it, and her face was not good-looking.

They didn't hear the quarrel on one side and the other side didn't hear it at all, because they lowered their voices, and Li Mei didn't think about tearing up their faces now, so naturally they had to be cautious.

the next morning.

Shen Man got up to heat up the kang, it was already very cold in the middle of the night, there was nothing he could do about it, the weather in Northeast China was like this.

After the stove was fired up, she turned to fetch water. There was a well in the yard, and now it was covered with a well cover, so she was afraid of being frozen.

Although the well is deep, it will freeze if you don't care.

Just as she was walking back with the water, Li Tianbao suddenly came out of the room, and the two met face to face.

Seeing this, Shen Man took a deep look at him, without any expression of fear, turned around and went back to the house with water.

Looking at the leaving back, Li Tianbao was a little curious. It stands to reason that after what happened last night, ordinary people would definitely be afraid, but this person is obviously not.

Even if you are not afraid, you have to hide and go.

In fact, Shen Man still has lingering fears in his heart, but he also knows that the more afraid you are, the bolder the gangster will be.

After tidying up, she put on a cotton jacket and cotton trousers. Seeing that the cotton trousers had a hole, and there was no time to mend it, she put on a pair of loose black trousers, then put on a scarf and went out with a satchel on her back.

It was windy outside, but it wasn't snowing anymore, but it was still gloomy.

"Why are you going?" Wang Yue couldn't help asking when she saw her going out when she came out.

Hearing this, Shen Man didn't turn his head back, "Go to town!"

As she spoke, she walked towards the village. At this time, several people were already sitting on the tractor.

A familiar figure waved to her, and Shen Man hurried over.

"Sister Man, why did you come so late, there is no room for a while." Gu Nan said while handing her a small horse.

After the two sat down, other people in the car were asking about Gu Nan and Shen Man.

The person involved sat next to him, but asked others?

Shen Man greeted them with a smile. They were all women, so they were all cheerful.

Especially seeing that she doesn't have the arrogant look of other educated youths, I prefer to chat with her.

Soon, a few more people came up one after another, and the carriage was full at once.

"Oh, wait for us!" Wang Yue and Qiao Xin chased the tractor that was about to start, and then they were about to get in the car.

"There's no room, where do you sit?" The man driving the car didn't stop, and drove away.

"Hey?" Wang Yue watched the car go away in surprise, and hurriedly shouted, "Why don't you pull us? You can't squeeze us."

But the car was getting farther and farther away, and no one could hear what she said.

Qiao Xin was also choked with anger, "Who is it? He knew he had a car to go to town today, but he didn't tell us!"

Compared with the tractor that didn't wait for them, she was more angry that Shen Man didn't tell them.

Everyone is an educated youth, so it’s okay to not get along with each other every day, and they still hang out with these peasants.

Wang Yue next to her also felt that this made sense, "There is really something wrong with Shen Man, why didn't he tell us about going to town?"

The two returned to the collective household angrily, and entered the collective resting and eating place, where everyone was chatting and reading.

"Why are you back? Didn't you go to town?" Xu Jie asked curiously.

It's okay if you don't say this, but once you say it, it makes the two of you angry.

Qiao Xin threw the satchel on the table and said angrily, "What are you going to do? We've already left the car!"

"Who is it? You know you have a car to go to town today, but you don't tell anyone."

Sitting on the stool, she became more and more dissatisfied with Shen Man.

Wang Yue next to her also echoed: "That's right, they are all educated youths who went to the countryside, so it's fine if she doesn't fit in with us, and she hangs out with those mud legs from the countryside."

"It's really a bargain for the educated youth!"

These words really touched everyone's heart. Although everyone's household registration is now in the Shangjiang brigade, they came from the city and will go back to the city in the future.

Even if this return to the city is far away, it cannot be degenerated.

The others didn't say anything, they were all in a daze or reading a book.It's one thing to agree in your heart, it's another thing to say it or not.

As for Shen Man, she doesn't care what other people think.She accumulated a small amount of wealth in her previous life but didn't enjoy it. Finally, she had a chance to start over, so she didn't live based on people's faces.

Sitting on the tractor, the cold wind blew over, everyone lowered their heads to avoid blinding their eyes.

Gu Nan on the side said loudly: "Sister Man, you will go shopping when you get there in a while, I have to send cotton trousers to my second brother."

Gu Chen rode away early this morning, and Li Jinhua didn't bring the cotton trousers he had prepared, so he just gave it away when he came over.

Hearing this, Shen Man nodded to indicate that he understood, and then continued to lower his head to avoid the wind.

The car finally arrived at the place, and everyone got out of the car one by one.

The tractor driver got out of the car and said, "I'll be waiting here at ten o'clock, hurry up if you buy anything."

Everyone else knew, so they didn't say anything.

After Shen Man got off the car, he said a few words to Gu Nan, and watched her go to deliver the cotton trousers.

Looking at this town, which is similar to the Xiajiang Brigade, she feels that this place is really poor.

Not far away are supply and marketing cooperatives, state-run restaurants, post offices, and grain stores.

These stores are all one-story houses, and there are no two-story houses at all.

There is a factory a little farther away. This town is not as good as the countryside of later generations.

 Wishing all mothers a happy and healthy Mother's Day!
