Chapter 9
Gu Mingtang went to the non-staple food store and bought a pack of orange petal sugar and two catties of pork belly, and eggs also cost a ticket. She could only buy half a catty of eggs, and bought a few things that the brigade supply and marketing cooperatives did not have.

Then, I went to the pharmacy to buy a few packs of lice medicine,

After they were put away, they returned home in Uncle Liu's carriage in the village, and took out a pair of small black cotton leather shoes and the little red leather boots from the space, plus thermal underwear, four pairs of socks, and two down jackets, etc. All put in the cabinet.

Gu Dong Gu Dong drank a large bowl of hot water, and Gu Mingtang made egg noodles for himself, which were dried noodles brought back by Lu Liangzhou last night.

Wrapped in newspaper, it weighs about seven or eight catties.

By the way, Lu Liangzhou is good at cooking.

The hot noodle soup made last night tasted much better than hers.

After eating, she boiled a large pot of hot water before seriously looking at the house.

This home is so simple that it can be seen at a glance. There are only two rooms, one for living and the other for cooking.

There is no furniture, just two red lacquered wooden cabinets on the north wall of the bedroom, an Eight Immortals table on the west wall, portraits of great men on the wall, and a reed mat on the kang.

The walls and roof of the house are not only mottled, but also dark, really worn out and old.

But it can't be flipped now, what if her space escapes after moving?
Thinking of this, she stood at the door, took advantage of being alone at home, entered the space, and began to take stock of the things in the space.

The space covers an area of ​​more than 50 square meters and is two meters high. The shelves she collected are placed around, with many boxes piled up in the middle, and there are all kinds of mess.

She took an inventory of the sanitary napkins, and it seemed that they could be used until the day they were available in the market.

In the east corner, there are actually a lot of compressed cotton and quilts.

There are other bedding, all collected in a home textile store.

I was reluctant to come in before, but now looking at these things, they are all piles of tickets.

Gu Mingtang went out contentedly, and began to remove the quilt when he entered the room. After he was done, he soaked the quilt cover and pillowcase in a large wooden basin full of hot water. So, Gu Mingtang took all the cotton covers outside, threw them in the snowdrift beside the house, and froze a little thing to death.

After that, there was a rubbing. With great strength, she wrung out the quilt and left it outside for the time being.

As soon as he turned around, he was frozen hard.

Hit it, and you can still hear the sound.

This morning, Gu Mingtang was wearing his own clothes inside. He searched just now and found that there were actually not many original clothes. They were wrapped in furoshiki and placed in the warehouse on the west side.

Seeing that it was getting dark, she was going to find Li Xiaocui.

Li Xiaocui is the eldest daughter-in-law of the Wu family, a few years older than her.

In the beginning, she took Gu Mingtang to play a few times. After tasting the sweetness, Gu Mingtang went to find his elder brother Gu Qingshan who also loves to play.

I thought I would win, but I didn't expect that the two of them lost more than 800 together.

Even Gu Qingshan has issued an IOU of more than 100 yuan.

The two add up to exactly three hundred yuan.

According to the prices of this era, this is a huge sum of money.

The Gu family is very poor, and she has no job, so the creditor Li Xiaocui dares to lend money to the two of them?

Is it because there is Lu Liangzhou behind the Gu family?

Also, Li Xiaocui is also a village woman, and her mother-in-law's family is not rich. Is she so rich?

Just as she was thinking about it, Li Xiaocui entered the courtyard with her head poking around.

Gu Mingtang didn't let her in either. Before Li Xiaocui could speak, Gu Mingtang pulled her over and lowered his voice, "My family, Lu Liangzhou, is back. He hasn't found out about losing all his savings, and he doesn't know that I lent you money. I didn't tell anyone. , don’t worry about my elder brother, I also lied about selling food to enter the city..."

"Wait!" Li Xiaocui stopped.

"What happened?"

Li Xiaocui looked at Gu Mingtang, and in terms of character, there was no one more annoying than her.

In terms of looks, you can't find anyone who looks better than her.

His eyebrows are like crescent moons, his eyes are like autumn water, his complexion is fair and delicate, which is rarely seen in rural people, his hair is thick and black, his typical oval face, without hostility, Gu Mingtang's beautiful smile makes people unable to take their eyes off.

Li Xiaocui felt that something was wrong, and felt that today's Gu Mingtang made her jealous eyes turn red, especially the word "entering the city".

Remembering the man's instructions, she hurriedly said, "You want to go to the city with Lu Liangzhou?"

"Yes, so, while Lu Liangzhou is not at home, I want to get back the capital and pay you back the money owed to you, but I don't have any money in hand, if you can lend me, let's play again tonight A handful of big ones, I'll bring my elder brother too, I don't believe it, we still can't play with those few foreigners?"

I don't know if it's because of the need of the plot or deliberate deliberation. Anyway, no one knows that Li Xiaocui still lent so much money to the Gu family brothers and sisters.

Gu Mingtang's eyes showed unwillingness and greed, and he sighed, "Oh, I guess you have no money, so you can't go?"

"Yes, that's why I'm looking for you today, you wait for my letter, and I'll look for you after I contact you."

Thinking of the thing that has never been done, Li Xiaocui is eager to try.

This time, Gu Mingtang promised to lose all of herself to those foreigners.

As for Gu Qingshan, I really can't take him this time.

So, she asked, "But don't take your eldest brother with you this time, do you hear me?"

"Why?"

"It's just a few old women who are playing this time, what are you doing with him?"

Gu Mingtang just hesitated for a moment, then urged, "Hurry up and get in touch."

Li Xiaocui suppressed her excitement, and when the matter was completed, the man not only gave him two hundred yuan, but also arranged for her to work as a worker in a textile factory in the city.

Gu Mingtang squinted his eyes, feeling that what the original body did was a scam, and if he didn't deal with it well, he would be blown up sooner or later, and it would be even more difficult to say at that time.

Come to think of it, it's pretty annoying.

It's not as good as the cowardly and incompetent original body to finish it off. Look, how brave is this? During the month of Lu Liangzhou's business trip, playing cards and setting fire, which one is not illegal?

Gu Mingtang quietly left the yard. The rural areas in the north are vast and sparsely populated, and the houses built are all single-family houses, basically without small alleys, and it is difficult to follow them if you want to, especially when you walk on the snowy ground.

However, she still saw that Li Xiaocui was heading not to Wu's house, but to the educated youth spot.

Educated youth point, the reborn heroine Han Yanan?

There used to be more than a dozen educated youths in the educated youth spot, but now some of them have returned to the city, and two of them have been admitted to university. One of them is Han Yanan, and the other has already left, and Han Yanan is planning to leave with Lu Liangzhou.

There seem to be only three of them now.

Gu Mingtang followed from a distance, Li Xiaocui never expected that she would be followed.

So, when it was confirmed that Li Xiaocui had entered the educated youth spot, Gu Mingtang went home.

After waiting patiently for an hour, when it was getting dark, Li Xiaocui came.
