How to Thrive in the ’60s

Chapter 29 Inquiring about the news



Seeing that Mr. Yun was not confused yet, Gu Shinian's face became better.

At this point, everyone could see that Gu Shinian's purpose was not only to ask Xu Dalan to apologize, but also to ask the old Wang's family to apologize for Yun Dachuan's death.

If Old Man Wang seemed to be soft before, he was just fooling Old Man Yun.

The old Wang family has neither the attitude of asking for help nor the sincerity of apology. Otherwise, Old Man Wang wouldn't only talk about Xu Dalan, but never mention Old Madam Wang's back then being a demon.

The old man Yun also thought of this, and then he kicked the ball again and looked back on Shi Nian's hand, ignoring the words of the old man Wang.

Old Man Wang's face darkened even more.

After thinking about it, he simply squatted beside Mr. Yun and said with a heart-to-heart look:

"My dear family, what happened in Dachuan that year... is that our old Wang family owes you a statement. It's my old wife's fault. If she hadn't been a fool behind her back, Dachuan would not have had an accident, and my daughter would not have been a widow.

My daughter broke up with her parents' family, and I felt bad in my heart. Let's not say anything else, just look at my daughter's face, look at the face of the girl, let's pass this matter today..."

"Push!"

Someone sneered, Yun Chang looked back, and the person laughing was Aunt Li, who was watching the fun.

"Tsk tsk! I didn't see it, old man Wang is still a man who sympathizes with his mother-in-law."

Aunt Li's words made Old Man Wang shut up immediately, and even his neck was red.

Old Man Wang kept saying that what happened back then was Old Madam Wang's fault, but Old Madam Wang was sitting next to him, but he didn't mention a word to ask Old Madam Wang to come over and apologize. Isn't that pity for the mother-in-law?

The old couple of the Wang family were in their 60s, and when Aunt Li said this, they immediately flushed with embarrassment.

Mrs. Wang can see the form clearly now, she knows that Gu Shinian is someone their family can't afford to provoke, and she sees the old man humbly for her and the people of Lao Yun's family, and then thinks that the little girl she loves the most doesn't recognize her. Now, for a while, my heart was so uncomfortable that I covered my face and cried.

"It's all my fault, it's me who hurt the flowers, it's my fault, if it wasn't for me, Dachuan wouldn't have gone up the mountain in the middle of the night, and my flowers wouldn't have become a widow, it's all my fault..."

As soon as Mrs. Wang cried, Mrs. Yun, who was beside her, couldn't hold it any longer. She leaned on Yun Shuilian and cried out the name of Yun Dachuan sadly.

After the boss of the Wang family and Yun Erchuan dragged each other into the village, the old village chief knocked on the cigarette bag, pulled the old party secretary and talked a few words in a low voice, and finally got a pound of cotton and two feet from the old Wang family for Yunshang. , and a pair of soles, this matter is over.

Mrs. Wang came here today and has not seen Widow Wang. She has been thinking about it for a long time. Seeing that things are almost over now, she quickly found an opportunity and asked Yunshang:

"Shang girl, how is your mother? What's wrong? Is it serious? Have you seen a doctor?"

Yun Chang really didn't want to see Mrs. Wang, with a small face, she replied coldly:

"Look, I'm sleeping at home now."

"What did the doctor say? No, I have to go see the flowers..."

"My mom said she didn't want to see your family."

With a word from Yun Chang, Mrs. Wang stopped in place, until Mr. Wang pulled the old lady, and the family supported each other and left Xinglin Village.

The old man Yun sent away the Yun family first, walked over and touched Yun Chang's head, looked at Gu Shinian and said:

"Wa'er, thank you for today's affairs. Come to the house for dinner at night, and I will ask Yunshang's milk to cook you something delicious."

Seeing Gu Shinian nodding in response, Mr. Yun smiled happily:

"Well then, I'll ask her aunt to come and pick you up at night! Okay, it's cold outside, so hurry back to the house."

After Mr. Yun left, the old village chief walked over slowly, "Comrade Gu Xiao,

If you come to the provincial capital, you must be better informed than our poor villagers. Let me ask you something. "

"Village Chief, tell me, I will not hide what I know." What needs to be concealed is not knowing.

"That's right, have you heard your father talk about relief food? I heard that there are relief food in many places, why hasn't Qinghe County heard of relief food?"

The old village chief's words really stopped Gu Shinian.

However, the three-year natural disaster is nationwide. Even if the government will subsidize the relief food, it will be limited, and it will not be distributed in every place. It will definitely focus on the most difficult places first.

If a village like Xinglin Village has gone on to apply for relief food, it should be unlikely to succeed.

"Village chief, the army can't interfere in the work of the local government, and my dad can't interfere with the food relief."

"That's it. It's okay, I'll just ask."

The old village chief was very disappointed, his brows furrowed tightly, and the folds on his face were a little deeper.

Gu Shinian walked a few steps with Yun Chang in his arms, thought about it, then turned around and asked the old village chief:

"Village Chief, is it difficult in the village right now?"

"Alas... It's almost December, and every household in the village has insufficient food surplus. After the new year, it is estimated that many people will have to stop cooking..."

I didn't say anything after that, but both of them knew what the consequences of cutting out the cooking would be.

The old village chief sighed. He had also heard that there were people starving to death in other places. Although Xinglin Village was not at that level, it was almost there.

Thinking of this, the old village chief was so worried that he couldn't sleep all night long.

He has been the village chief for more than ten years, and his biggest wish is to keep the villagers fed and clothed and never go hungry again.

In the past few years, the general environment has been bad, and the life of the common people has been difficult, but he has called on the villagers to tighten their belts, and the food in the village is still not enough to eat.

When he was worried, Gu Shinian appeared in Xinglin Village like this, and then the old village chief asked Gu Shinian, a half-year-old boy, to inquire about the relief food.

It can be seen that the form of Xinglin Village is really not optimistic...

When the two returned home, Yun Chang put the sleeping widow Wang on the kang into the space, and then lifted the bench and sat opposite Gu Shinian, asking with a serious face:

"Second brother Gu, you asked the old village chief just now, did you want to give food to the villagers?"

"You can't give it directly, you have to think of a way to let the villagers share your feelings." Gu Shinian didn't deny it, and frowned, thinking about a solution to the food problem in Xinglin Village.

If he just helped the villagers of Xinglin Village, he could have thrown the food near the village chief's house and led people to find it.

But now he wants to use the food thing to let the villagers inherit Yunshang's love, so that when he leaves, the villagers will not bully Yunshang.

The trouble now is how he can operate so as not to arouse the suspicion of the villagers, and also, how much food to fund the villagers is better...

Yun Chang also worried, "Will it be dangerous to do this, and how do you explain the source of the food?"
