1986: Old Stories in Northeast China

"Oh, what a coincidence. I'm going to the village to answer a phone call first. I thought it would take some time to arrive." Han Xiuying said happily.

"I'll tell you a good news in advance. I applied to my superiors for some affordable mackerel. Two kilograms per household, our village can bring it back today."

"Yingzi, is it really affordable? I saw some sold in the town last market, and it was quite expensive."

"The couple is really good, one is selling affordable diamine, and the other is selling affordable sea fish."

"I heard that the fish in the sea have no small bones, they are all big pieces of meat?"

...

After hearing Han Xiuying's news, everyone started to talk about it.

Han Xiuying explained to everyone and hurried to the brigade headquarters.

This is also because the current material rations are not so sufficient, coupled with the shortage of transportation resources.

So even if you know that the fish can be delivered, it is unknown when it will be delivered.

This small activity of distributing mushrooms is still quite fast.

Qi Cuiwen was also very good at weighing, and she was very good at playing with the pole.

Before noon, all the mushrooms were distributed.

"Sister Yingzi, is the mullet divided in this way? I'll weigh it for you." Qi Cuiwen said enthusiastically.

"We don't need to divide it. But if you are interested, you can take a walk and then divide it." Han Xiuying said with a smile.

"Okay, then I'll make some dumpling soup quickly, and then we'll go to the town to catch fish. Uncle Jianguo has to help, because the car is not easy to load." Chen Tiezhu said.

"Then I'll go home and get the car." He Jianguo said hurriedly.

"Grandpa Jianguo, Grandpa Jianguo, Doudou drives the car, Doudou is the driver." Doudou, who was listening to the voice, was anxious.

"Hahaha, Doudou has to drive the car." He Jianguo said with a smile.

"Master, it's okay to eat less at noon. How about we go catch fish now?" Lu Dan asked excitedly.

"That's fine, we'll eat early in the evening." Chen Tiezhu nodded with a smile.

This matter was decided happily.

Then Doudou dressed up and became the coachman.

The two girls would rather sit in the carriage and freeze than sit in the Santana to keep warm.

For the two of them, this was an experience they had never had before. Especially Doudou, the coachman, who drove the carriage very well.

"This guy, there are really a lot of fish."

Arriving in the town in advance, Chen Tiezhu was very moved when he saw the frozen fish piled up in the courtyard of the town government.

"Hey..., I also benefited from our Deputy Mayor Han." Mayor Ma, who was also in the courtyard, said with emotion.

"Everyone, please be quiet. These fish were obtained by our Deputy Mayor Han through his connections. It is not easy to get so many fish at this time. Let's listen to what Deputy Mayor Han has to say."

"Mayor Ma, it's nothing." Han Xiuying said hurriedly.

However, seeing that Ma Zhanhua was very persistent, she had no choice but to come out.

"There are still many things I need to learn at work. Since I came to work in our town, no matter which department I went to investigate, everyone has given me a lot of help." Han Xiuying spoke.

"I'm still far from being a qualified deputy mayor. Applying for these fish is not a big deal. When everyone's life gets better in the future, we can eat whenever we want."

"Mayor Ma, should we count the number of people in each village and divide the portions first? Make more, so that the fish won't be broken when they are caught. The extra ones will be given to the five-guarantee households."

"If there are any surpluses, we will give them to our comrades in the town as welfare. We have worked hard for a year, and it's the end of the year."

"Okay, let's divide it according to your method." Ma Zhanhua nodded with a smile.

Chen Tiezhu next to him was happy and looked very satisfied.

Although Han Xiuying didn't shout out any slogans, nor did she think it was a big deal that she got so many cheap fish this time.

However, she did have a fire, and it burned very vigorously.

Being able to get so many cheap sea fish proves that she is very "capable". Relationships are also a kind of ability.

Later, there was a temporary adjustment, and the extra fish were distributed to everyone as a benefit, which was a real benefit.

Of course, you can also say that she was just trying to win people's hearts. Even if she won them, so what? If you have the ability, you can also get so many sea fish.

Not to mention anything else, just now there were many comrades who were watching the fun from the periphery.

Now it's a different situation, they don't care about the fishy smell at all, and they all come forward to help.

"Hey..., since there was a leader at your house, I didn't say much. I was still thinking about what I could do for Comrade Xiuying before I left. It seems that I worried too much. "Ma Zhanhua came to Chen Tiezhu.

"Calling you Mayor Ma or the future Deputy Minister Ma seems a bit strange, so I will call you Old Ma." Chen Tiezhu said with a smile.

"I really admire you. You are so old and you don't care about your own happiness, but you still face difficulties. Most people don't have this courage."

"And during the time Yingzi worked, you also gave her a lot of guidance. That's enough, these are all dry goods and real experience."

"It's not easy to be called Old Ma by you." Ma Zhanhua joked.

"Seeing your mushrooms, I am actually really relieved. No matter who takes over in the future, our town will not be bad in the future. I have worked here for so many years, and I really have feelings for it."

"What? When you transfer to the county, you will be a hands-off boss? There is no such good thing. "Chen Tiezhu said with a pout.

"Our Lao Gao has many tricks, who knows what ideas he will come up with. Anyway, I think it is impossible for you to have a leisure time."

"The road is difficult and dangerous. You two are almost like hanging your heads on your belts. Whenever you feel bored, come to my house, have a drink, and really have some leisure time."

"Hahahaha, your words make me feel much more relieved." Ma Zhanhua said with a big laugh.

"I am ready. At worst, I will go home. After that, I will farm and grow mushrooms with you. I think your mushroom house is quite interesting."

"Brothers have to settle accounts clearly. I will make money from you when the time comes." Chen Tiezhu said with a smile.

"Then I am willing to let you make money. Want..., my God, did Doudou drive the cart here by himself? "

Ma Zhanhua was startled when he was halfway through his sentence.

"Ah..."

The little man sat on the shaft of the cart, carrying a big whip and pulling the reins, and shouted loudly.

The big carriage also stopped safely at the gate of the town government.

The little guy jumped off the car, and he looked so cute.
