This Second Male Lead Has Something Special
Chapter 118
There are quite a few teenage children in the team. They help the adults with some things on weekdays, but most of the time they play together and are nowhere to be seen until meal time.
The parents didn't take it seriously. There were no mountains or deep waters in their team. As long as they didn't sneak out, nothing would happen. Plus, there were so many people in the team, and every household knew each other. If something happened to their child, something would happen. I will also come forward to help.
It doesn't matter how the children make trouble.
Anyway, it only lasts a few years, and when I get older, I have to help with things.
So, when these children were fighting for cookies, no parent knew.
"I got two cookies today!"
"I have one and a half. My educated youth brother is very kind. He gave me the biggest half."
"How many did you pick up today?"
"Hey, the firewood in the forest here is almost gone. I searched for a long time before I found half a bundle."
Several children were chatting together, and while they were talking, a man suddenly approached their small circle and asked: "Exchange firewood for biscuits?"
The children looked up and screamed in surprise.
"No cookies!"
"Where can we get cookies?"
"Brother Zhengjun, if you want to steal our cookies, I will tell grandma to beat you!"
Who is Zhengjun?
He is the beloved and hated master of the village.
Like Lian Zi, they are the most capable young people who can't do any job that is given to them. They will never fish in troubled waters, and anyone who sees them can't help but praise them.
But Zhengjun and Lianzi are different. When people in the village mention Lianzi, they feel distressed and think that he is good, and they want to praise him to death.
But Zheng County is not.
He is strong at work, but when this person is mentioned, he will shake his head.
He had a reckless temper. When he was young, he would give his nephew a piece of meat because of family favoritism. He would punch him with his fist and snatch the piece back.
Because he didn't have enough to eat, he dared to break open the cabinets at home with rocks and steal the food inside.
The Zheng family had many sons, and they hated this son who was strong at work but could not be controlled. After another quarrel over food, the Zheng family directly adopted County Zheng into his uncle's home.
Uncle Zheng had no children, and he never thought about having a child to inherit his family.
Just seeing how pitiful Zheng County was, with his face bruised and unconvinced after being beaten, he finally took him to his home.
Not to mention, although Zheng Jun was only a half-year-old boy at that time, he ate a lot but also worked a lot, which relieved a lot of Tang Bo Zheng's burden.
As for Zheng Jun's love for eating, there are only two people in the family anyway, so even if he can't eat well, there is still no problem in being full.
In this way, the two became father and son, and their lives were going well.
But Zheng Jun’s mouth is just too greedy.
Scamming children for snacks happened frequently. The more times they did it, the kids in the team were frightened when they saw him, especially those who had snacks on them. Even a peanut could be targeted by this big bad guy.
Just like now.
The children held their pockets tightly, fearing that the cookies on them would be deceived. After all, this was not the first time.
Zheng Jun looked at the cookie foam on the corners of the children's mouths, how could he believe that they had no snacks in their pockets, but what he was more concerned about was what he heard before, "As long as you tell me, I won't snatch your cookies."
The children were a little undecided.
Although they are young, they also know that if too many people know, they will get fewer cookies, so they keep it secret and don't even tell their families.
Zheng Jun bent over, looked at them levelly, and said in a low tone: "Think about it, I asked you for a lot of snacks, but did I also do a lot of work for you? I also made a lot of toys for you. , so I don’t call it robbing, it’s exchange.”
Although this exchange was somewhat mandatory, he really didn't steal it.
There was nothing he could do, he was so greedy that he really didn't even give up his face just for a bite of food.
After saying that, the children looked at each other. Brother Zheng Jun seemed to make some sense.
The rare toys in their hands were all made for them by Zheng Jun's brother. Thinking of this, one of the children couldn't help but speak.
As soon as he spoke, several other children also started talking, and it didn't take long for Zhengjun to figure it out.
He said nothing, patted the children on the head and turned away.
One of the bald children wondered, "Why doesn't Brother Zhengjun go to Brother Lianzi?"
"Is it possible that he has changed his gender?"
"My grandma said that brother Zhengjun is now an adult and should temper his temper, otherwise no lesbians will be willing to marry him in the future."
They said a few words casually, but they really didn't care much about it, and they all started to collect firewood again.
There aren't many biscuits at Brother Lianzi's place, and if I don't pick them up quickly, they won't be able to exchange them for many pieces.
After finally picking up some, a group of children carried baskets on their backs and headed towards the foot of the mountain. As soon as they went there, they were dumbfounded. They saw Zhengjun, who had deceived the information from them before, carrying a basket that was taller than a person, filled with Got firewood.
After a little counting, there were actually about ten bundles.
At this time, all the children were not calm. Zhengjun had exchanged so many biscuits, could they still exchange them? !
You can still do it, but just this time.
Looking at the two or three pieces left in the biscuit box, Liang Lian said to them: "That's it for this time. If I need your help in the future, I will definitely call you."
The expectation in the children's eyes turned into disappointment. They stared at Zheng Jun at the same time. Some of them had tears in their eyes and were about to cry.
Brother Zheng Jun was so mean. He actually snatched work from the children!
Zheng Jun was like nothing happened. He chewed the biscuits carefully. It's true that the biscuits from the city are particularly delicious. It's a pity that the exchange was too small this time. I should have another ten bundles of firewood.
He ate two pieces and put the rest carefully into his pocket. He asked: "I don't have much work to do now. Do you want a helper? He is obedient and capable. Just give him some food from time to time."
Liang Lian smiled bitterly, "From time to time, where can I get so much food?"
Zheng Jun looked at the people behind him.
Lianzi didn't have it, but this new educated youth must have it. He started to promote himself to him again, "Comrade, what do you think? Everyone in the team knows that I work quickly and obediently. I will never go east if you point west."
That look was as well-behaved as possible.
Su Lin glanced at him, and he recognized who he was when he came.
The male protagonist in the original text.
The female educated youth and the rough man in the village were spoiled to the point that everyone envied them. With the efforts of the two, they finally walked out of the mountains and became the richest man in the world.
However, the male protagonist now is not so capable, just a greedy person who fights with children for snacks.
Su Lin had no opinion on his desire to help, but just said: "I don't have much food in my hand now."
"It doesn't matter, just owe it to me. Anyway, you are a member of our team. Am I afraid that you will run away?" Zheng Jun grinned. If he doesn't have it now, he can always have it in the future. He is not afraid that the other party will not give it.
In this way, there is one more person left to help.
Zheng Jun is not a self-promoting bragging. He is indeed very strong and very powerful at work. With his joining, the efficiency has been greatly improved.
After the experience of sharpening the blanks, the only thing left is to dry the blanks.
Put the formed blanks in a place that has been cleaned up in advance to dry.
After drying, you have to start firing the kiln.
In fact, there are still several processes in the middle, but he really lacks some materials and tools, so he can't implement them. Fortunately, the first batch is just a trial. If he can really make it, he will have the confidence to apply for information from the brigade and purchase the necessary materials.
Anyway, he is now supported by his sister, and he really can't afford to buy these things. He can provide methods and help, but he won't agree to other things.
Before firing the kiln, Su Lin has to go to the town.
It has been almost a month since he came to the Liangjia Brigade, and he hasn't been to the town for a stroll. It's time to bring some news to his family.
In addition, he has to understand the market price of this small world.
The original body didn't pay much attention to money. He was also the one who was supported at home. He didn't know how much his father and stepmother's salary was, and he never participated in every business trip.
"Brother, Uncle Jiadong is going to the town tomorrow. We can take his ox cart." Liang Lian asked well. If he went to the town by himself, he would definitely choose to walk. It costs a penny to borrow an ox cart.
The money was not much, but he was reluctant to spend it.
But he knew his brother's physical strength too well, and he was afraid that his legs would go weak when he walked to the town.
With Lianzi's behavior of protecting his brother, Su Lin could say that it was very easy to go to the town.
They went to the supply and marketing cooperative first, and Su Lin found that they were selling some earthen bowls and earthen basins. There were also porcelain bowls, but they were all piled up in the corner and covered with dust.
When asked the reason, the employee of the supply and marketing cooperative curled his lips, "The price difference is ten times, who is willing to spend that money?"
Su Lin calculated the difference between the two. If he was asked to choose, he would also choose the earthen bowl.
After all, it is really not easy to make money now.
Without further hesitation, he turned around and bought some candy and biscuits. These things must be prepared. If you want to find someone to help, you can't be less snacks.
Especially when firing the kiln, you must burn firewood for 48 hours continuously. With only him and Lianzi, I am afraid that they can't stay awake all the time, so they still have to be trained.
When he was taking out the money, he was patted on the shoulder. Su Lin turned his head and saw a big smiling face, "Wang Nuo?"
Wang Nuo's smile deepened. He was really afraid that Su Lin had forgotten him. "I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence. I was thinking of going to Liangjia Brigade to find you guys after a while."
"Fula Brigade is a little far away. Why are you here?" Su Lin asked. The two brigades are in the same provincial capital, but there is still some distance. Even if Wang Nuo went to the town to buy, he shouldn't come to this small town.
Wang Nuo looked around and pulled him aside before saying, "As for the canned food, my father has helped me contact a canning factory, which is in this town."
"So fast?" Su Lin was a little surprised. He had to admire Wang's father. He was really quick to do things.
Wang Nuo wrinkled his face, "You don't know, I almost died of exhaustion in the first two days after I came here. I really couldn't do it anymore, so I had to contact my father."
Before coming, we discussed that we would wait for a period of time to buffer, wait for him to understand the people in the brigade, and find a suitable partner before taking it slowly.
As a result, within two days, he couldn't help but call home and cry.
Wang's father scolded him on the phone, but he really loved his son and spent half a month contacting and arranging the canning factory in the town.
This was not a trivial matter, and only Wang's father knew how much effort he had spent.
But fortunately, everything was done.
"We have to send the fruits for random inspection today. If there are no problems, the cannery can purchase a batch of fruits first." Wang Nuo did not hide anything, and directly explained the whole story clearly, "The captain said that we will sell the fruits in the future." Leave it to me to take care of things. When you don’t have work, you can go down the mountain and guard the orchard. You don’t have to do anything, and you still get ten work points.”
And no one in the team would have any objections, and they even thanked him for helping to pull the strings.
If the fruits are sold, everyone can get a little more when the money is divided at the end of the year. It is better than if the fruits all rot in the ground. Who would be unhappy in this way?
Before the matter was completed, many uncles and grandmothers in the team would stuff something into his hand in order to thank him.
This was the first time that Wang Nuo felt so welcome.
And all this is thanks to Su Lin!
Otherwise, he would have to work like other educated youths every day, so tired that his legs would still tremble when he went to sleep. He really didn't want to try that feeling again.
Then, because he had made this start, he found that other educated youths seemed to have some ideas, but he didn't know what they would do.
When Su Lin heard this, he said: "You can ask around. They are all educated youths who went to the countryside together. If you can help, just help. If you are really not sure, just forget it."
"Okay, I'll ask you if I'm not sure." Wang Nuo no longer regarded Su Lin as an outsider. "Anyway, I come here every month. It's very convenient to find you... By the way, just wait for me. ”
After saying that, he ran out, and not long after, he ran in again with the two of them, holding a basket of fruits in their hands, "These are the peaches and plums grown by the brigade, you can take them back and eat them."
"You don't need so much." Su Lin waved his hands.
"It's okay, just give it away if you don't need it." Wang Nuo said, these fruits were originally meant to be given away, and he would just make arrangements for them.
He felt it was more appropriate to give it to Su Lin than to the employees of the cannery.
Afraid that he would not accept it, he and the other two put down the basket and ran, waving as they ran: "I'll come find you in a few days."
Just like that, I came to town and got a pack of candies, a pack of biscuits, and three baskets of fruits.
When I went to the post office, I took two large packages with me from home.
Su Lin and Su Lin couldn't carry so many things back. Fortunately, they met someone familiar and helped them move them to Uncle Jiadong's oxcart.
I gave some fruits to the people who were helping me. At first I was too embarrassed to ask for them, so I just stuffed them directly into their hands.
After stuffing it, Liang Lian looked back at his brother, as if waiting for praise.
Su Lin smiled at him, "There are so many fruits, I can't finish them in a while. When I get back, I'll let Aunt Liang boil them into jam, which will last for several months."
"My mother can't."
"I know how to teach my aunt when I get back." Su Lin said. He knew how to do it but had never done it. In addition to the fruit, you also need to add some sugar to make jam. Sugar is not easy to get, so as to prevent him from spoiling things. It would be better for my aunt to take action.
When they arrived at the end of the village, they saw a figure squatting in front of them.
Uncle Jiadong, who was driving the cattle cart, saw it and shouted: "Zhengjun, what are you doing squatting here?"
Zheng Jun threw away the branch that poked the ant, and stood up: "Waiting for you."
It was his bullock cart that was waiting for him, so naturally it was not him.
Zheng Jun walked quickly to the back of the bullock cart and when he saw the two people inside, his big and bright eyes suddenly lit up: "You're back."
Like that, being as happy as you want makes Su Lin feel a little dizzy.
There was also a letter written by my little sister in the package sent from home.
In addition to talking about family matters, she also mentioned Zou Qi who had found a home.
The reason why Zou Qi and Zheng Jun met and fell in love was because Zheng Jun was really greedy.
To capture a man's heart, you have to capture his stomach. This sentence is very suitable for Zheng Jun.
After Zou Qi went to the countryside, he was not very used to the life here. Even with the help from his original self from time to time, the living conditions were still not as good as life in the city.
Later, she quietly started a cooked food business with some good skills.
The ancestral braised food is so fragrant that everyone who eats it can't help but praise it.
Even a cookie can seduce a man who comes to help.
How could you refuse such fragrant braised food? After going back and forth, the two gradually became familiar with each other, started working together on business, and then fell in love for a long time.
So Zheng Jun is really greedy.
He was so greedy that he knew Su Lin would go to town to buy something, so he waited at the village gate just to have an early bite.
Su Lin didn't hide it, grabbed some snacks and stuffed him with a bag of fruit, "Can you come and work at my place these two days?"
"When?" Zheng Jun hugged a pile of food and smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into slits.
"All day."
Zheng Jun frowned slightly, "I still have to go to work, so I can only help you after work."
Eating is very important, but work is also very important. His father was not young when he was adopted, but now he is older and suffers from frequent backaches and cannot do heavy work. He has to earn the family's food rations. He cannot live with Lianzi. Likewise, those who are willful don’t even earn work points.
"I will tell the captain, he will remember your work points." Su Lin said, not to mention whether he is a male or not, he is quite satisfied with Zheng Jun's work. As he said himself, he has enough strength to let him Just do whatever you want, no worries.
Zheng Jun thought for a while and said, "Okay, I'll go with you."
When Uncle Jiadong, who was driving the car ahead, heard this, he couldn't help but feel a little strange: "Su Zhiqing, you were playing in the mud at the foot of the mountain... and working, and the captain also recorded your work points for you?"
I know that the team leader didn't stop them and said there were other things for them to do, but I didn't know that they could get work points for playing in the mud at the foot of the mountain.
He frowned and didn't say anything bad, but just said: "The team leader has his reasons for his decision, but you'd better not talk about it outside, in case someone is dissatisfied."
Su Lin learned his lesson and decided not to talk about it in front of others before the pottery was fired.
Zheng Jun didn't think it was a big deal.
Their team was okay, but the team leader of the next team was unfair. He assigned easy work to his own people and gave them higher work points, but he was the team leader, so he couldn't complain no matter how much he complained.
Compared with those team leaders, their team leader Liang was so good. He must have his reasons for doing this, and there was no need to question it.
Zheng Jun could work anywhere as long as he had work points.
Knowing that he could get ten work points by helping, he followed Su Lin without saying anything, and his mouth never closed all the way. Su Zhiqing said that since he had to guard for two whole days, he would also provide three meals for these two days, and maybe snacks.
He couldn't help licking his lower lip, two days was too short, it would be better if he could come for a few more days.
The two days Su Lin said meant guarding for a whole day, guarding the cave for two days and forty-eight hours, and even resting on the temporary bed next to it.
Three people cooperated, two people guarded and one person took turns to rest.
In other words, they couldn't go back to spend the night.
Liang Lian and Zheng Jun were easy to arrange, just tell their families.
Su Lin didn't need to explain it specifically, but the news that he didn't go back to the educated youth house still spread.
"If anyone who goes to the countryside as an educated youth is not for village construction, he should have the awareness of hardship, unlike someone who only knows how to be lazy." A male comrade muttered in a low voice.
But no matter how small the sound is, the space is so small, how could it be heard?
"It's more than that." Wan Fangzhou couldn't help but join in. "Now everyone in the team says that someone has corrupted the honest people in their team, and has made our educated youth have a bad reputation."
It's not just about reputation, but also because I feel wronged.
They are obviously the same batch of educated youth, but they have become darker in less than a month, and their faces are full of fatigue. Every night when they go to bed, their legs are so tired that they tremble.
What's even more unbearable is that there are so many insects in the fields.
The first thing I do when I get home every day is to catch the insects on each other's bodies with the educated youth in the same room, which scares me to the point of numbness.
The work is tiring, and the food is not good.
The food they brought was not much, and it was about to be eaten up in a month. They could borrow food from the team, but how much food could they borrow?
Every day they couldn't eat freely, and everyone's stomach was growling when they went to bed at night.
If everyone was like this, it would be fine.
Su Lin is different from them. He doesn't have to work in the fields and can eat with fellow villagers in the team. After a month, he didn't lose weight and even looked more energetic.
The more I look at him, the more uncomfortable he feels. They are all educated youth, so why are they so different?
"Okay." Fan Shan frowned, "You all should say less. The work is assigned by the team leader. If you are dissatisfied, you can apply directly to the team leader."
After all, he is the leader of the educated youth, and his impetuous heart immediately cooled down.
"Comrade Su is indeed different from us, but that is also his capital. He didn't eat a grain of rice from you, nor did he ask you to help him work. You don't have to target him."
Envy Su Lin?
Of course I envy him.
But to be honest, no matter who lives in this room, if they have the conditions like Su Lin, they will also use their relatives to make their lives in the team better.
So there is really no need to be sarcastic.
"That's right, Comrade Su just sent us some fruit, and we are slandering him while eating what he sent us. This is really not right." One of the male comrades said.
After returning from the town, Su Lin sent a basket of fruit to the educated youth's room.
A full basket, everyone can get some.
Although it is not a rare thing, these fruits cannot be bought casually. Even if you can buy them, you have to spend money and tickets. Su Lin sent so many, they are taking advantage of him.
Others nodded one after another, and several people who were eating fruits blushed.
Taking advantage of him while saying bad things about him behind his back.
This kind of thing is really unacceptable.
"That's not what I meant, it's just..." Wan Fangzhou wanted to explain, but he didn't know how to explain.
Fan Shan said: "Okay, let's rest early, we have to continue working tomorrow."
Two days passed quickly.
Every day, I finished work and went home. The weather was so hot that I didn't feel like going out.
The only thing they look forward to is eating. The feeling of food in their stomachs makes them feel that the hard work of the day is worth it.
On this day, something happened in the village.
There is a family 500 meters away from Liang Pan's house. There lives an old widow. The old lady has a miserable life. First, she lost her husband, and soon she lost her child. I don't know if God saw that she was too miserable. Ten years ago, when he went out, he picked up a baby girl who was thrown away on the way.
He couldn't find her parents, and didn't know where to send her. Seeing her pitiful, he gritted his teeth and raised her himself.
The old lady was lonely, but she lived a carefree life.
Firstly, the village would take care of them. Secondly, the old lady was also a craftsman. With her good carpentry skills, it was no problem for her to raise a girl. She even sent her to school.
Seeing the girl growing up, everyone said that the old lady would be able to enjoy a happy life in a few years.
But who would have thought that on such an ordinary day, the old lady's house suddenly collapsed.
"Oh, you didn't hear it. The big noise really scared me to death."
"Grandma Bai is lucky. No one was in the house when it collapsed. The two of them managed to escape."
"Why did a good house collapse? What should we do next?"
Captain Liang stood in front of a pile of ruins, his brows knitted tightly. He looked at the old lady who was crying beside him and comforted her: "It's good that no one is alive. If the house is gone, we can build another one. It's just right that the autumn harvest is coming soon. After the autumn harvest, I will find some people to help."
"That's right. My Dazhuang has plenty of strength. Let him help."
"Isn't it easy to find someone? My kid can come too."
It's easy to find someone, but you have to spend money to buy the materials to build the house.
Grandma Bai still has some savings. She wanted to save more money to send Anian to junior high school. She saw that life was getting better and better, but how could she encounter such a thing.
At this time, a little girl rushed over, she grabbed the old lady's hand and asked anxiously: "Grandma, are you okay? Are you hurt?"
Grandma Bai shook her head repeatedly, "Fortunately you went to school, otherwise..."
"Grandma, I won't go to school." Anian knew the situation at home. If she took out money to build a house, there would definitely be no surplus. She didn't want her grandma to work so hard, "I'm not young anymore, I can go to work and earn work points."
"That won't work." Grandma Bai shook her head, looking disagreeable.
Anian wanted to say more but was stopped by Captain Liang, "Let's discuss the house first. There is no vacant yard in the team, so we can only rebuild it. We can first look for materials that can be reused. If not, we can only buy them with money."
"Bricks and tiles are too expensive, so let's just build a thatched house." Grandma Bai said.
"How can that work? How can we live in a thatched house when it snows in winter?" Captain Liang shook his head. Thatched houses and bricks and tiles are not good. In the end, they are too short of money.
"Lack of bricks? Do you want to build a brick and tile house?" At this time, a person inserted into the crowd
When the people around saw this, they thought, isn't this the educated youth who taught Lianzi bad things?
Just when they were thinking of asking him not to get involved, one of them stared at the jars and plates in his hands and asked in surprise, "Where did you get these from?"
"Oh, did you buy them in town? Su Zhiqing has a lot of savings, so he bought so many household items at once."
"Is this a pottery jar? I'm afraid it will cost more than ten yuan in total?"
Someone gasped, "So expensive?"
"I asked in town, a small jar costs more than one yuan, and Su Zhiqing is holding so many, it must be more than ten yuan."
"Who has the money to make this? Two or three plates are enough, but he is holding seven or eight here? And so many bowls, plates and dishes."
However, when they were talking, they didn't notice that Captain Liang was staring at the things in Su Lin's hands with his eyes wide open, looking at them in disbelief.
I heard him say that he wanted to burn a kiln two days ago, and I thought I would have time to ask him today, but I didn't expect to encounter the matter of Grandma Bai. Could it be that he succeeded?
Su Lin smiled modestly, "It's free. I opened a kiln at the foot of the mountain for fun. Grandma Bai, are you going to build a house? If you need bricks, just tell me and I'll make some for you."
Modest? Very modest!
He said something modestly that stunned everyone present. Everyone was stunned.
What did they hear?
He made pottery worth more than ten yuan for fun?
If you need bricks, just tell me and he can make them? !
