Thank you for your comfort."
Du Yuejia found that Jiang Yao changed a lot especially what she said to her today.
"You're welcome, I'm just talking it casually."
Jiang Yao never thought about being a good friend or best friend with the Du Yuejiao, she just wanted to keep the farthest distance is the most appropriate.
Du Yuejia: “…”
The two walked silently for a while, seeing that they were about to reach the fork, Jiang Yao felt that they could finally end the awkward chat, but Du Yuejia suddenly stopped her,
"Jiang Yao, yes... I want to tell you something."
"What's the matter?"
Jiang Yao looked at her serious expression and was taken aback for a moment.
Du Yuejia looked at her, hesitant to say anything, but finally she mustered up her courage and said,
"It's very likely that Yuejiao told about you and Lu Che. I asked her about that things we got in a conflict, you know the reason, Pengfei said that you reminded him, I am grateful to you, so I will tell you my guess and let you beware in advance."
"Actually I can guess it, but thank you for reminding me." Jiang Yao found that Du Yuejia's three views are upright
"You're welcome, that's what it should be."
Du Yuejia added
: "But you don't have to worry too much, she asked for leave two days ago to go back to the provincial capital for a blind date, and it is possible that she will return through marriage... go to the city for future...
Hey... In fact, this person she went to meet is two years younger than my father. He is a leader of the Revolutionary Committee. The previous wife passed away two months ago. i Persuade her, but she probably won't listen to me anymore
Aware that she was too emotional, Jiang Yao slowed her tone and said,
"You are now opposed to her, if you try to persuade her, she will not think that you thinking good for her, but will only think that you are jealous because she found a good home ..and She is also a year younger than you, and she is an adult. She can provoke you and Zhao Pengfei secretly, which shows that she is not an idiot. Whether marry or not to marry that leader, she naturally has considerations in her heart. "
"It seems...that's the truth." Du Yuejia nodded in understanding.
After going back and forth, there was a delay on the way. When Jiang Yao returned to Lu's house, it was time to cook.
Lu Che repaired the tractor and went to work in the morning.
She wanted to make something delicious and treat him well.
she asked Lu Qing... is there fish or meat ...she wanted to cook
Before Lu Qing could speak, the old lady said with a smile
"Of course you can cook whatever you want no need to asked us .., you two were tired last night, so eat more at noon later."
yaoyao : “…"
Grandma, can you need to mention last night...every now and then?
Jiang Yao blushed and went to catch fish.
There is still some oil left over from yesterday's banquet frying in the kitchen. It is not good to keep it for too long. She has to eat it as soon as possible. She thought about it and decided to make a sweet and sour fish nugget.
Sweet and sour fish nuggets are not difficult to make. First cut the fish into pieces, then coat them with flour and fry them thoroughly. Finally, pour over a sauce made of white sugar and vinegar.
She took the time to cook, and when the food was out of the pot, Lu Che just came back from work.
"You wash your hands quickly and eat."
Jiang Yao said to Lu Che as she brought the dishes into the hall.
Lu Che looked at the slender back of his newly wed wife and plunged directly into the shower room to take a shower.
When he came out, everyone was already around the dining table.
In the past, she and him were separated by a corner seat, but now of course they are sitting together.
As soon as Lu Che sat down next to her, the hand under the table held hers.
Although it was not the first time to make small gestures in front of everyone, Jiang Yao was still felt guilty. She glanced at Lu Che and motioned him to let go.
Old Mrs. Lu and Lu Qing looked at the young couple and kept looking at each other with a smile.
The adults are looking at me, I look at you, Zhou Yang and Zhou Xin are completely fascinated by the sweet and sour fish in front of them.
Crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, sweet and sour in taste, the two children shouted,
"Auntie, your cooking is really delicious."
"Auntie, I will only eat the food you cook in the future, I don't want to eat the food made by my mother."
Lu Qing sounded angry and funny, but before she could say anything, Lu Che had already said,
" Do you want to exhaust my wife?"
The two little guys were unhappy when they heard this.
Zhou Yang: "Uncle, you don't like me and Xinxin anymore."
"Uncle only likes my aunt now." Zhou Xin said aggrieved
: "Sure enough, men have a wife and forget their mother... No, they forget their nephew and niece."
“…”
Everyone laughed at Zhou Xin's words.
Lu Qing : ...Now, go and rest for a while...."
Lu Che wanted to be alone with his wife , but now his sister offered the opportunity, of course he was welcome and took Jiang Yao back to the room...
As soon as he returned to the room and closed the door, Lu Che couldn't wait to hug Jiang Yao, bowed his head and kiss her passionately....
Originally he just wanted to kiss his wife but he overestimated his power of control and quickly got out of control.
During the day, Jiang Yao was not willing, and was afraid that her body would not be able to bear it, but seeing how hard he was, she finally obeyed him.
When it was over, Jiang Yao lay on the bed tired, she felt that she was crushed by Dog Man who dont know where to stop..
And Lu Che, who had been working hard just now, was full of energy at this moment, dressed neatly, and was ready to go to work.
Jiang Yao won't feel sorry for him as much as she did in the morning, hum
Dog Man... he is full of energy....
"Wife, I'm going to work."
Lu Che kissed Jiang Yao's lips
she "um" and waved her hand
: "Go....go...do more work."
get tired ....so he don't bother her tonight.
Lu Che stood up straight, just about to turn around, suddenly thought of something and turned back, bent down and said to Jiang Yao
"Wofe I forgot to tell you something."
Jiang Yao closed her eyes and asked,
"What's the matter?"
Lu Che
"The machinery factory in the county has good benefits. In a few days, the factory wants to give benefits to the employees. The purchasing director is interested in the snowskin mooncakes that you asked me to give them during the Mid-Autumn Festival. they order a batch of snowskin mooncakes for employees."
Jiang Yao was very tired. She had been listening to all kinds of rogues but when she heard the last sentence, her eyes opened abruptly, and she blinked a few times, as if coins had been credited, and asked
"How many do they want to order? ?"
"The director said that each person - five, and the machinery factory has about 200 employees, a total of about 1,000."
Lu Che said
: "It will be very hard to catch 1,000 snowskin mooncakes.... it doesn't matter if you don't want to do it, I just push the director."
"It's not hard, let alone 1,000, 2,000 will do."
Jiang Yao sat up excitedly
: "You can confirm the delivery date and quantity with the director as soon as possible, we will Prepare in advance here.”
After she finished speaking, she raised her arms around his neck and took the initiative to put a kiss on his lips,
"Cheche, you are awesome!"
Jiang Yao quickly recovered from the great joy of receiving a large order.
To complete this order, they faced a very serious problem, that is, the procurement of raw materials.
Half a catty of glutinous rice flour, half a catty of sticky rice flour, three liang Cheng flour plus half a catty of red beans and three liang of white sugar, can make 30 snow skin moon cakes, 1000 pieces need seventeen catties Glutinous rice flour, 17 catties of sticky rice flour, 10 catties of plain flour, 17 catties of red beans, and 17 catties of white sugar.
now the supplies are in short supply, and they don't have so many tickets, where should they buy so many raw materials?
"We can grind this sticky rice flour ourselves, but we need to buy glutinous rice flour, plain flour, red beans, and white sugar. Where can we buy it?"
Jiang Yao asked Lu Che in a low voice,
"Can you Can't you secretly get the votes back?"
"No."
Lu Che said
: "I don't say if I can get it, even if I can get it, I don't dare to get it. Buying so much grain and beans at one time, unless it's a factory purchase....whoever buys it, the people in the supply and marketing cooperative must remember it, and if we buy it rashly, others must be suspicious.”
"What should I do then?"
Jiang Yao said with a frown
"This is a great opportunity for us to make a name for ourselves. Today there is a machinery factory, and tomorrow there will be a bamboo ware factory, a powder factory and the like to follow..."
Her eyes lit up suddenly, and she pulled Lu Che and said
"Do you usually send firewood to the powder factory? Can you order from the factory?"
"It should be possible, but the goods that can be obtained are likely to be stolen goods. If one day they are found to be irritated, it is better to buy things directly through special channels." Lu Che said.
"What is the special channel..." Jiang Yao just asked the exit, and immediately realized what the special channel was.
"That's ok. Compared with buying it outside, it's less likely for people to find us taking up private work."
Jiang Yao asked
: "Can you find a special channel?"
"Yes, didn't I tell you last time? Purchasing in the factory canteen is not easy. In order to ensure the food for the employees, they often buy it through special channels. When it comes to the deliver things, I come and go, and I am quite familiar with two or three people there." Lu Che said.
"Excellent." Jiang Yao said
"Then you can buy it back as soon as possible. After confirming the delivery date with the machinery factory, I will start preparing."
"Okay."
Lu Che nodded,
"I'll go directly to the county town after I get off work.... don't wait for me."
"Go without eating?"
Jiang Yao felt distressed when she heard this,
"You walk back and forth, and you have to run a few places. You won't be able to eat until nine o'clock tonight."
"It's alright."
Lu Che raised his hand and touched the top of her hair, and said,
"I'm full at noon today. It's too late if I don't go out."
After Lu Che went out, Jiang Yao went to sleep, but she didn't fall asleep and got up at four o'clock in the afternoon to cook.
She was reluctant to let him eat a hot meal at nine o'clock tonight. He said that he was very full at noon. All the pieces were given to Zhou Yang and Zhou Xin to eat.
After eating the fish at noon, there is no meat at home, but there are a lot of eggs. Jiang Yao boiled eight hard-boiled eggs, peeled them and put them in the boiled brine to let them taste slowly.
At five o'clock, she took out the lunch box, filled a large bowl of sweet potato rice and three brined eggs, and went to the field to deliver meals to Lu Che.
He went to the ground in the rice field today, which is a little far from Lu's house.
Jiang Yao estimated the time, and she almost finished work when she sent it there. Lu Che was able to eat quickly and then go to the county seat.
Lu Che has always been very serious in his work. Others work foreign workers and start to be lazy before five o'clock until he gets off work. He is different. not excluded.
He has always had a belief in his heart that even if he is from a bad background, he is a hard-working person. The captain gave him ten work point and he had to make the ten work point worthy of his name and not let anyone criticize him.
"Lu Che, your wife is coming to you..."
As he was working hard, Lu Che suddenly heard someone shouting. He didn't care, but after the person shouted a few more times, he realized what he was shouting.
Why did his wife come suddenly?
Could it be that something happened at home?
A bad premonition came to mind, Lu Che immediately put down the farming tools and got out of the paddy field.
As soon as he climbed up from the field, he saw Jiang Yao walking towards him from a distance.
He didn't know what she was carrying, but seeing that she was not in a hurry or slow, nothing should have happened unexpected, half of his dangling heart suddenly let go.
"Why did you come here?"
Lu Che was happy when he saw his wife, and the expression on his face became softer unconsciously.
Jiang Yao handed over the lunch box in her hand and said
"I'll bring you a meal, and then go to the county town after eating."
"I can go back to eat at night, it's so troublesome to make a trip."
"I can't bear it."
Jiang Yao muttered softly, but it was enough for Lu Che to hear clearly.
Suddenly, his body was not tired after a long day. He opened the lunch box and said
"Okay, I'll eat now."
Now that it's close to the end of work, the big guys are sitting on the edge of the field to rest in twos and threes in group
Seeing Jiang Yao come to deliver meals,their heart are sour and envious.
"he is going to leave work and go home. but here she is to deliver food, show off?" someone said sourly.
Lu Che took Jiang Yao and sat down, ignoring the man's words.
Stimulating the law will not work, but the heart of gossip will not die, and someone asks
: "Jiang Yao, Lu Che can go back to eat in a while, don't you get tired from running on purpose?"
"Jiang Yao is definitely not tired. she stays at home every day to do handicrafts. Do you think that she can do farm work every day like us?"
Before everyone called Jiang Yao "Miss Jiang ", but now she married Lu Che and became the daughter-in-law of the Qingyuan production team, and everyone called her by her first name.
Jiang Yao didn't mind, and said to the woman who was questioning,
"Lu Che will go to the county town to pick up firewood. will be back late tonight....thats why im here."
Everyone knows that Lu Che went to pick up firewood.
Someone asked
: "It's dark when he go to the county now, and it's not easy to pick up firewood at night, why dont you go in the morning?"
Before Jiang Yao could speak out, someone rushed to say,
"someone couldn't get up in the morning ... they just enjoy 1st night... dont people understand it"
As soon as the voice fell, everyone burst into laughter.
These women, who are married and have several children, dare to say anything, Jiang Yao's face immediately turned red.
Lu Che couldn't like that others teasing his wife. He raised his face from the lunch box and glanced at the surrounding villagers.
The warning was full of dark, and everyone didn't dare to say anything.
Lu Che had only eaten half of it, and it was time to get off work.
The villagers left one after another, and Lu Che speeded up the speed of eating and ripped the lunch box clean within two minutes.
Lu Che had only eaten half of it, and it was time to get off work.
The villagers left one after another, and Lu Che speeded up the speed of eating and ripped the lunch box clean within two minutes.
Jiang Yao looked at him as if he was reincarnated as a hungry ghost, and said,
"Look at how hungry you are, and said that you will eat at nine o'clock tonight."
"I eat so fast because I'm not hungry..but..."
Lu Che pulled her up, handed her the lunch box and said
"You hurry up and go home with the others... it's getting dark early, so i dont need to worry about you going back alone."
Jiang Yao's heart warmed, and she said
"Then be careful on the road, I'll wait for you to come back."
She just wanted to express the literal meaning of the five words
"I'll wait for you to come back"
but someone thought crookedly and looked for her and said
: "If i make trouble tonight, I think ...i mean...I'm afraid you can't take it."
"..."
Jiang Yao glared at him angrily,
"You think too much, I just want to wait for you to come back, and I don't agree to let you make trouble tonight."
and she left...
Lu Che went to the county very smoothly this time, and confirmed with the director of the machinery factory that the delivery will be delivered before 8 am in five days.
He ran several special channels and brought back nearly 100 catties of raw materials that night.
Walking for an hour with a weight of almost 100 pounds, he was already sweating when he got home.
Jiang Yao looked distressed again,
"Why are you so stupid, won't you drive an ox cart to pull it back tomorrow morning?"
Lu che :
"Such a large bag of things is very conspicuous, and i come back at night so people cant find out about it..."
"If i drive an ox cart, i need to borrow cattle, and go to the market. It’s easy to be suspicious.”
Yaoyao:
"It seems to be the truth."
Judging from Lu Che's carefulness, it's really not easy to do some private work these days. Fortunately, she has him. so they cant be discovered.
The day before delivery soon arrived, Jiang Yao soaked the red beans in the afternoon, and got up at twelve in the morning, first boiled the red beans into a soft red bean filling, and then began to knead the flour.
It is impossible for her to make a thousand snowskin mooncakes by herself before dawn tomorrow, Lu Che and Lu Qing also came to help.
Especially the work of rubbing powder must be handed over to Lu Che.
If it was a kilo or two of powder, Jiang Yao would have no problem rubbing it, but now she has no strength for dozens of pounds of powder.
There were no marks when making snowskin mooncakes for the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Jiang Yao only kneaded them into round ones. This time, she asked Lu Che to make three wooden marks in advance, and the mooncakes were made one by one.
they can knock it out from the imprint, which not only increases the speed but also looks good.
Although Director Fang requested that it be delivered to the machinery factory before 8 o'clock, in order to hide from the public, Lu Che carried two bamboo baskets on a pole at 5 o'clock, ready to go to the county for delivery.
Jiang Yao originally wanted to follow, but Lu Che disagreed, saying that she was tired all night and told her to go to bed quickly.
She couldn't resist him, she only said
: "You go to sleep when you come back, don't go to work today, this is an order."
"Okay, I will listen to my wife's order. You go to sleep alone first, and I will hug you when I come back."
Lu Che raised his eyebrows and said.
"Who wants you to hug?"
Jiang Yao was obviously not confident when she said this, because she slept on him like a sloth every day.
Lu Che didn't pierce her while listening, and followed her words
: "Well, you don't have to hold me, but I need you to hold me."
........
Lu Che was very obedient and didn't go to work when he returned after delivering the goods.
In fact, staying all night is nothing to him. He is not particularly tired, but it is true that he wants to sleep with his wife
he used to listen to the men of the production team in the field, and he despised them for being addicted to beauty and not thinking about progress.
It was only now that he married his wife that he fully realized that as long as he could hug his wife and not get up, it didn't matter if he didn't eat...or not..it felt full
He has fallen completely, but he is willing to fall into Jiang Yao even more
she called his name "cheche"
He said "um" and called her twice... but no response... first he thought she was pretending to be asleep, but he shouted twice in her ear and then blew, and she was still sleeping sweetly, only then did he realize that this was her subconscious behavior.
Seeing his wife relying on him so much, he kissed her forehead contentedly, then closed his eyes and fell asleep.
they slept until noon.
Although Jiang Yao didn't get enough sleep, she was hungry and had to get up to cook.
"Lie down for a while, grandma said in the morning that she would make lunch."
Lu Che hugged the person back, and then handed her the money bag on the bedside table,
"moon cake money."
As soon as Jiang Yao saw the purse, she was instantly refreshed, she sat up, opened the purse, and counted the money carefully.
The profit of this snowskin moon cake is set at about a penny, which is almost not as good as a tea egg, but the advantage is that it is large in volume, small profits but quick turnover, and finally made ten yuan .
It is not bad to earn ten yuan overnight, and she also wants to leave a good impression on Director Fang of good quality and low price. The factories in the county are very close together.
Today is the machinery factory giving out benefits, maybe tomorrow it will be the nitrogen fertilizer factory’s turn to deliver.
If Director Fang recommends it, the business will come one after another.
Also, the tomatoes in the vegetable garden can be harvested in about ten days, and Director Fang is also one of the key customers to develop.
"How is it, right?"
Lu Che asked when she finished counting.
"Yes."
Jiang Yao smiled, then took out three yuan from it and said
"Give this to Sister Qing."
"Okay, you'll give it to her later."
Lu Che said indifferently, then he pulled her back into his arms and said,
"It won't take me half an hour to get up."
"Okay."
Jiang Yao rubbed against him and asked,
"Did you bring the tomatoes to Director Fang today?"
"I mentioned it, he is very happy, and when it comes time to show him the goods, if they are good goods, the price is right." Lu Che said.
Jiang Yao
: "I'm going to price this tomato at 8 cents a pound, what do you think?"
"Eight cents?" Lu Che disagreed somewhat,
"Vegetables are generally two cents a pound, and rarely more than three cents. Although our tomatoes are scarce, the price is other Four times as much as vegetables, I'm worried that Director Fang won't buy it."
"8 cents is not expensive at all."
Jiang Yao said
: "Anyway, I will have a way to make him feel that our tomatoes are worth the money, but I feel that there is still a problem that needs to be solved urgently. "
Lu Che: "What's the problem?"
Jiang Yao: "The problem of transportation, the ox cart can't be borrowed, you often run to the county, and it takes at least two hours to go back and forth, and once or twice is not enough, you always spend time It's not worth it on the road. I want to buy a bicycle, in fact, I saw you often go to pick up firewood before, and I had this idea at the time."
"I also want to buy it, but now I can get a ticket back through special channels. It has been a long time since the bicycles are available for sale. Even if there is stock, it is difficult to rank us."
Lu Che sighed,
"I don't know when my little aunt will come back. In the letter she sent to my grandma some time ago, she didn't say when she would come back."
"There is too much uncertainty on aunt's side."
Jiang Yao said
: "How about I send a telegram to my brother and ask him to ask the old leaders of the provincial capital to help buy one. Anyway We will also go back to the provincial capital to carry those sewing machines, and we will ride back directly when the time comes."
"Will it be too much trouble for big brother?"
"No."
Jiang Yao said
"My brother rescued the old leader. He was transferred to the provincial capital because of his injury. He can help me arrange work. A bicycle is a trivial matter. If you agree, I will send a telegram to my brother and let him arrange it."
"Okay."
There's really no better way than that.
"Then let's go to the county town to shoot telegrams in the afternoon." Jiang Yao said
raised her hand to touch his face, and said,
"You don't need to think that you are incompetent, before everyone succeeds, they are indispensable The help and support of others, as long as you drink water and think of the source in the future."
"Yes."
Lu Che smiled and put his hand on the back of hers.
The two were tired and crooked for a while, then got up to wash and eat.
After dinner, Lu Che washed the dishes, Jiang Yao took Lu Qing aside and handed her three dollars,
"Sister, this is the money earned from moon cakes, you can take it."
"No need."
Lu Qing pushed back and said
"Actually, I didn't do much, it was you and Lu Che who were busy."
"After staying up all night, why is there no reason to contribute?" Jiang Yao stuffed it back again, but Lu Qing insisted not to accept it, she said
"I see that you and Lu Che are so good now, so don't worry I have already written a letter to Yang's father, saying that we will going to join the army. If it goes well, I will leave at the end of the year. I only have Lu Che, the younger brother, and I won't be able to help him much in the future. "
Although she knew that Lu Qing would go back to join the army sooner or later, Jiang Yao was still reluctant to hear the news at this moment,
"Sister, I can't bear you."
"I can't bear you, my grandma, and Lu Che." Lu Qing grabbed her hand and said,
"But I owe Zhou Jin too much, I can't live with you all the time, he is good man that why he Accept it with peace of mind .. my family situation... but now you are here...i dont need to stay... let me go to...Yaoyao."
Yaoyao understand and nodded..
Jiang Yao and Lu Qing chatted for a while, and when Lu Che finished washing the dishes, they set off to the county to send a telegram.
After sending the telegram, they will return to Qingyuan directly.
It was still early when they left, and the commune members hadn't come out to work. Now that they have come back, everyone has been working in the fields.
As a "model worker", Lu Che still insisted on going to work on the second day of his marriage.
Everyone was surprised that he suddenly stopped working today.
Now, seeing him walking with Jiang Yao on the road, people finally understood that it was What's going on.
Woman B : "Isn't this normal? When people got married, they want to go out far walk... or fooling on bed?"
Woman C : "That's right, not to mention that Lu Che didn't seek a wife until he was in his twenties, and the wife is very beautiful, and he is eager to keep people on the bed all the time."
The group of women became more and more energetic, and from time to time they let out meaningful laughter.
Zhu Xia and several female educated youths were working with them, and they were so blushing that they wanted to cover their ears.
"Zhu Xia, why are you blushing?"
Woman A joked
: "It's normal for Zhu Xia to not be shy, but Du Yuejia have been with Zhao Zhiqing for so long, and even live in Under one roof…”
Woman A didn't finish her sentence, but everyone knew what it meant.
Du Yuejia blushed even more with embarrassment. She opened her mouth to explain, but she didn't know how to explain it, so she just said
"Auntie, it's not what you think."
"oh..oh.., how come you who have a relationship are more shy than your sister who has no relationship?"
said woman A.
Du Yuejiao, who was named, hummed,
"Auntie, I have a fiancé now."
Cheng, went on a blind date?"
"Can you go back to the city after you get married?"
“What kind of person is your fiancé? Is he a worker?”
"It's good to go back to town."
"It's good to marry a worker, eat commercial grain, and don't need to go to the ground."
Du Yuejiao, who was besieged, did not feel impatient at all, smiled and let the women ask questions, and when they finished asking, she said
: "My fiancé is indeed from the city, after I get married, i can go back to the provincial capital. By the way, he is not a worker, he is the director of the revolutionary committee."
