I became popular in the 1970s by disguising myself as a man

Chapter 40 Boys must protect themselves

"Sister, why did you come to the supply and marketing cooperative? You can't buy anything without money! What's wrong with you? What are you doing sitting on the ground? Have you asked if you have the remittance slip from that trash Zhong Zhiran?"

Although Tang Qian still had that pitiful look on her face, she was scolding Tang Zheng in her heart. Why did she come here at this time if she didn't come earlier or later?

Knowing that she had not waited for Zhong Zhiran's reply or remittance order, Tang Qian felt anxious and panicked. She could no longer remember that today was the first time she came to the town to ask if there was any letter or remittance order from her. The post office here Most likely, letters will be delivered once a week, and packages and other items will be notified and I will come to town to pick them up.

This was because she really couldn't hold on any longer, and coupled with Tang Zheng's drag, Tang Qian was eager to change the current situation.

It's not like Tang Qian hasn't thought about finding someone to marry. Of course, the male educated youth in the Educated Youth Academy was her first choice, but after considering them one by one, none of them met the conditions of Tang Qian's marriage partner.

Either their family conditions were not good, or their looks were unsatisfactory. She had taken a fancy to one of the young men in the village. He was the second son of an accountant. He had been seduced by her several times, but the bad thing was that his mother was a shrew. body.

After learning that Tang Qian was hooking up with her son, she rushed to the Educated Youth Institute and cursed, saying that Tang Qian was a vixen. She just came to the countryside and did not work hard, but she knew how to hook up with young men in the village at such a young age. Even if he resorts to resorting to extreme means, he is not a peaceful person even if he thinks about it, he is just a broken shoe.

Originally, people in the Educated Youth Institute did not like the siblings Tang Qian and Tang Zheng very much, but the aunt from the village scolded them in the Educated Youth Institute. Although the scolding was not directed at them, she still felt that Tang Qian was just a piece of mouse excrement. It smeared the educated youth and ruined the reputation of all educated youth.

Tang Qian and Tang Zheng were immediately separated and started fighting alone. What was even more annoying was that the second son of the accountant broke up with her directly because of his mother's objection, and avoided her like the plague.

Tang Qian really didn't understand why everything turned out like this in just one month. Now she not only had to work every day, but she also didn't even have enough to eat every day.

Unexpectedly, when Tang Qian came to town today, she actually met Tian Bowen. She met Tian Bowen once when she first arrived in town after going to the countryside. At that time, Tian Bowen was wearing a military uniform and sitting in a jeep. , one glance is enough to make people remember it deeply.

Since God had presented the opportunity to her again, how could Tang Qian let it pass?

"Nothing, I just twisted my foot."

Tian Bowen on the side frowned when he heard the "waste Zhong Zhiran" mentioned by Tang Zheng. He immediately remembered that Tian's father had told him before that Zhong Zhiran sent her pair of cheap siblings to the countryside in the northwest. It's not like this happened to me by chance.

Tang Qian was still dreaming about marrying Tian Bowen, and then getting rid of Tang Zheng and joining the army. She didn't notice the abnormality in Tian Bowen's expression at all.

"Why are you so stupid? You can twist your ankle even when you're doing well. Did Zhong Zhiran send us any money?"

Tang Qian wanted to curse, but she could only endure it at this time. She could not let Tian Bowen think that she was a woman without quality.

"Not yet, I think it will be soon. He is our brother and he will never care whether we live or die. After all, he has taken away all the family money."

Tang Qian said softly and winked at Tang Zheng from a place where Tian Bowen could not see. It was not known whether Tang Zheng really understood what Tang Qian meant. Anyway, she didn't say anything else.

"Comrade, could you please take me to the hospital?" Tian Bowen was apologetic at first, but when he realized it and looked carefully, although Tang Qian was holding her ankle, she didn't look like she was injured or in pain at all. look.

Besides, there weren't many people in the supply and marketing cooperative, so why was she standing behind him?
"I'm afraid it won't be convenient for me to send you there. Your brother just happened to be here. It's better to ask your brother to accompany you there. You can take the five yuan and go to the doctor."

As Tian Bowen spoke, he took out five dollars from his pocket and stuffed it into Tang Zheng's hand, then turned around and left.

This was different from what Tang Qian expected, and she quickly wanted to stop Tian Bowen.

"Comrade, wait a minute, I don't know your name yet. My name is Tang Qian, and I am an educated youth from the Shihezi Brigade..."

Tang Qian spat out, but Tian Bowen didn't even look back. However, Tian Bowen heard her name and the brigade she was in. He felt that he needed to verify whether these two people were Zhong Zhiran's cheap siblings.

Judging from the implicit meaning of what the two people said just now, they still wanted to hold on to Zhong Zhiran. Although he knew that these two people could not gain any advantage from Zhong Zhiran, he did not want these two people to make Zhong Zhiran unhappy.

Seeing Tian Bowen disappear at the door of the supply and marketing cooperative, Tang Qian was extremely anxious. This was her best candidate for marriage so far. Although she was only 15 years old, she could not get a marriage certificate as long as she could develop according to her plan. She no longer has to suffer in this place where rabbits don't poop.

Tang Qian didn't bother sitting on the ground anymore and pretended to be injured. She got up and ran out. But when she ran to the street, she saw Tian Bowen's figure somewhere. What was even more annoying was that she didn't even know what the person's name was or which army and level she was in. I don’t know, I don’t know when the next meeting will be.

The more Tang Qian thought about it, the angrier she became. The expression on her face was extremely distorted for a moment, and Tang Zheng bumped into her again at this moment.

"Sister, why are you running? Didn't you sprain your foot? Why did that man give you money for medical treatment? You didn't want to blackmail him, did you? That man gave you five yuan, which is a lot, and you are still chasing him? What are you doing? Don't let people expose you for pretending to be injured. You will steal the chicken but lose the rice.

This trick of yours is really good. You can easily get five yuan. How about we go back to the brigade and go to a fellow villager’s house to buy a chicken and stew it. I haven’t eaten meat for a long time..."

"Eat, eat, eat. You know how to eat. What else can you do besides eating? Get away."

Tang Qian was really angry. No matter how many people were on the street, she just yelled at Tang Zheng, and finally took the five yuan from Tang Zheng's hand.

Tian Bowen, who was hiding in an alley not far away, saw Tang Qian chasing her out with skill and skill, and confirmed his previous suspicion that this woman was indeed faking.

Inexplicably, I thought of hearing Tian Zeyu mention the incident in the struggle brigade where the four of them were blocked in the room by two female educated youths and forced to give them warmth.

At that time, I was still laughing at them, but things were changing, and now they are not coming to me anymore...

What did Zhong Zhiran say at that time? "Men must protect themselves when they go out." Tian Bowen felt that what Zhong Zhiran said was very reasonable. Wouldn't he be able to lose money and avoid disaster today?What's wrong with five dollars? If you use it to buy Zhong Zhiran toffees, how much can you buy?
Now he is different from before. In the past, he could eat enough for himself and the whole family would not be hungry. Now he has to save his wife's money. Of course, the more money, the better.
