"Come on, wash your face first... You don't want to take a bath in the river. The river is running fast. What should you do if something goes wrong? Go and boil some water in the kitchen. You two can take a bath in the empty classroom..."
"Come here, take off your coat. Look at all the holes. I'll sew them up for you..."
"What's your name? How old are you this year? Are your parents in good health... Oops, I'm sorry, it's okay. You two just work here down-to-earth. I won't be able to starve you two with just one bite to eat. It’s okay to be normal when there is a moment of difficulty. We are all young men, so just grit your teeth and get through it..."
Principal Wu talked nonchalantly, wiping tears from the corners of his eyes from time to time.
Since the death of my own mother, no elder has talked about Wu Genmao and Cao Shijian so much. Now that I hear it, I am a little annoyed, but my nose is sore at not living up to expectations.
At this time, other educated youths who were teachers also came.
When Wang Dong saw the two shirtless men, he ran back and lent two sets of his and Sun Guanghui's old clothes to them to wear, so as not to embarrass the lesbians to leave the house.
On the other side, seeing Wu Genmao and Cao Shijian being tripped up by Principal Wu, Lin Nianhe tugged on Wang Shumei's sleeves and motioned for her to follow him out.
Wen Lan also wanted to follow, but was stopped by Lin Nianhe: "Sister Lan, those two are strangers after all. You should keep an eye on them here. If they dare to harm Principal Wu, knock them unconscious first."
Wen Lan's eyes lit up: "Okay!"
Lin Nianhe dragged Wang Shumei and slipped out of the village along the wall. She didn't let go of Wang Shumei's hand until she reached the river.
Wang Shumei sat casually on the grass and raised her chin towards her: "Tell me, what is going on?"
Lin Nianhe picked up the stones and threw them away. Without answering, he asked: "Brother Qian brought the sewing machine back, right?"
"I brought it back, and there's a radio... I didn't even take it out. There are too many people in the front yard, so we can use it later when we move it to the back." Wang Shumei looked at her with a serious expression, "Nianhe, those two boys , are you from the provincial capital?"
"Huh? You know this?" Lin Nianhe was stunned for a moment, then patted his forehead, "I was almost led astray by those two bullies."
People, it's not easy to learn well, but it's easy to learn bad things. She just said a few words to those two, and her way of thinking was almost distorted.
She shook her head and waved Wu Genmao and Cao Shijian out of her mind.
Wang Shumei frowned slightly and looked at her intently.
Lin Nianhe looked at her expression and knew that Qian Guozhu had probably said everything he saw.
She was silent for a moment, sat down next to her, and told the truth about the cause and effect slowly and calmly, even more frankly than she told Su Yuncheng.
After hearing this, Wang Shumei was silent for a moment and then couldn't help but slap Lin Nianhe: "Lin Nianhe! What are you thinking? Are you too courageous?"
She was furious, but she gritted her teeth and tried her best to lower her voice.
Lin Nianhe shrugged, helpless: "What can I do? If I didn't stand up that day, Brother Qian and Brother Sun might have been killed by him."
The corners of Wang Shumei's eyes were red, and she gritted her teeth and said: "My brother and I chose this path ourselves. Our skills are inferior to others... He died, and I took care of his sister-in-law and nephew for him."
Originally, her cooperation with Lin Nianhe was just to purchase goods. How to sell the goods was their business. If anything went wrong while selling goods, they should be responsible for it themselves.
However, in order to save them, Lin Nianhe took the initiative to stand up.
She can ignore it.
She shouldn't care.
Lin Nianhe also slapped Wang Shumei: "Okay, don't thank me too much, I just can't stand Bai Bo's virtue."
Wang Shumei held back her tears and whispered: "What can you do if you can't understand it? Nianhe, if you think about it carefully, you will know that his black market has at least connections with grain stations, food factories, and coal mines. Qianglong doesn't Don’t you understand? This is a matter between me and my brother, don’t you..."
"I understand, so I want to bring him to Lan County."
Lin Nianhe lay on his back on the grass, squinting his eyes and looking at the blue sky.
Wang Shumei frowned and looked at her. After a moment of silence, she asked, "Aren't you afraid?"
"Afraid, of course."
Lin Nianhe raised his hand and spread his fingers.
"But someone has to do it."
Her voice was very soft and flat, as if she was just saying something insignificant.
Wang Shumei realized what she meant, and when she frowned, tears fell down: "There are so many people, why do you have to go..."
"So why can't he be allowed to commit suicide on his own?"
Lin Nianhe chuckled and turned his head, interrupting her.
Wang Shumei: "..."
Lin Nianhe smiled and folded her hands behind her head. She shook her little feet and said, "Sister Shumei, don't worry, I know what's going on."
Wang Shumei took a deep breath, exhaled it slowly, and asked her, "How sure are you?"
"Before those two people came, it was 60%."
"Now, 100%."
Wang Shumei recalled what those two people did, and after a while, she smiled.
She asked, "What can I do?"
Lin Nianhe sat up suddenly: "Let's go, accompany me to the brigade headquarters first."
Wang Shumei thought that when Lin Nianhe went to the brigade headquarters, he must first explain to the brigade leader and be prepared for Wu Genmao and Cao Shijian in advance, but the result——
"Hey, Uncle Captain, you see how much I miss you. When I saw the red seal at the post office, the first thing I thought of was you..."
Wang Shumei stood against the wall with an expressionless face, watching Lin Nianhe fooling Li Dahe.
Li Dahe's reaction was similar to that of Principal Wu. He wiped his hands repeatedly before taking it, and said: "What are you spending this money for? I just want to see, you should give it to Principal Wu. She is the principal, so it is appropriate to wear this." .”
Lin Nianhe replied very skillfully: "I bought them all. They were specially selected for you."
Li Dahe smiled so much that he narrowed his eyes, pinned the red treasure medal on his chest happily, and straightened his waist unconsciously.
Lin Nianhe gave him a special thumbs up: "Uncle Captain, you are very impressive!"
Li Dahe walked around the house with his hands behind his back. In the end, he couldn't help but went to the water tank outside to take a look at his reflection.
Wang Shumei frowned and winked at Lin Nianhe: You are serious about business!
Lin Nianhe blinked blankly.
Seeing this, Wang Shumei whispered: "Don't tell me that you just asked me to accompany you to give gifts!"
Lin Nianhe was innocent: "Yeah, walking by myself is a bit boring."
Wang Shumei: "..."
Before Sister Shumei turned against her, Lin Nianhe patted her shoulder with a smile, walked out and said to Li Dahe who was standing by the water tank: "Uncle Captain, two gay men from the Victory Brigade came over just now and wanted to help the little gang in our village. Just keep working and give yourself food to eat..."
"What? From the Victory Brigade? A man? That's not possible, absolutely not!" Li Dahe decisively refused, "No way, this matter is not negotiable!"
Lin Nianhe suddenly discovered that the captain, who was wearing the red treasure badge, spoke with more confidence than before.
If I had known earlier, I would have given it to him later.
Wang Shumei stood up at the right time and said: "Captain, don't worry. Letting them work is also to clear the private land for the village primary school. We must stay away from them. Besides, Principal Wu is watching, so nothing will happen."
"It'll be too late when something happens!" Li Dahe puffed his beard and stared at them, pointing at the two of them, "It's a good thing to have a kind heart, but that's not how it's used!"
"I……"
"Forget it, let me go tell Principal Wu!"
Li Dahe was too lazy to pay attention to them and trotted towards the village primary school.
Wang Shumei touched Lin Nianhe with her elbow: "It's over."
Lin Nianhe smiled meaningfully: "Guess why I took them to Principal Wu first?"
