With Geng Changqing's reminder, Su Mo stayed at home for a week without going out, either making cotton shoes or writing manuscripts, and occasionally playing with vegetables.
Mainly because the weather was cold and she didn't dare to lift the covering of wheat straw until the sun came out.
She also put away the lettuce, cabbage and leeks, gave half to Li Yuee, and put the rest in the west room.
The temperature at this time is simply like a natural refrigerator. Use layers of dried wheat straw as a cushion and leave them for ten and a half days, and they won't go bad.
She was also planning to harvest the cabbage and radishes left in the field in a few days.
On this day, Su Mo burned the kang and was sitting on the kang writing a manuscript. The brigade radio started to broadcast again, asking someone to get the letter. Suddenly, Su Mo heard her name and was startled.
Could it be that Lu Changzheng wrote to her again? But she received his letter just the day before yesterday, and the reply has not been sent yet.
Although she was confused, Su Mo still put on a thick coat and hurried to the brigade headquarters.
When passing by Lu's house, she found that Lu Boming had come out and walked outside. Su Mo was happy and surprised, and ran over to help him: "Master, it's cold, why did you come out outside?"
After the wild ginseng was dried, she cut a small section and kept it to take to the cowshed. The rest was given to Li Yuee.
Lu Boming waved his hand, "No need to hold me up, it's not in the way. I've been hiding in the room for more than half a year, and I'm almost moldy. Come out for a walk. You can get the letter quickly."
He had also heard the broadcast just now, and he estimated that it was written back by the Long March. After he got better, he wrote a letter to Lu Changzheng alone, telling him that Su Mo had found wild ginseng and saved his life.
Seeing that Lu Boming was in good condition, Su Mo let go and went to the brigade headquarters.
When she arrived at the brigade headquarters, Su Mo found that she not only had two letters, but also a remittance order, and it was a large remittance of 100 yuan.
Su Mo looked at the words "Yang Shi'en" written on the remitter's name, with the expression of a subway grandpa looking at his mobile phone.
what does this mean? Is it compensation? How could it be so cheap to harm the Su family like that for only 100 yuan?
Two letters, one written by Lu Changzheng and one sent by the Heijiang Provincial Newspaper Agency. But because of the impact of Yang Shien's remittance, Su Mo wasn't even excited to receive a reply from the newspaper.
After rolling up the things and stuffing them into her pocket, Su Mo hurried back.
The postman looked at Su Mo's hurried away figure with great envy.
Party Secretary Lu's wife was really worth marrying. He remembered that she had only received two remittance orders about ten days ago, and now she had received another large remittance. She was really a golden egg that could make money.
After arriving home, Su Mo opened the two letters.
Lu Changzheng wrote a letter to thank her for finding wild ginseng to save Lu Boming's life. The strength of the letter was clearly visible on the back of the paper, which shows Lu Changzheng's excitement. Su Mo counted the time and found that someone should have written to Lu Changzheng before she sent him a letter telling him about it.
It was sent by the Heijiang Provincial Newspaper Office. It contained a certificate of manuscript adoption, a coupon for the fifth issue of the provincial newspaper, as well as a pound of brown sugar stamps and 2 feet of cloth stamps.
To receive the coupon for the provincial newspaper, just give it to the local post office. After receiving it, the post office will send 5 consecutive issues of the provincial newspaper. Due to special reasons, the provincial newspaper is no longer published every day. It is published once every three days. In 5 issues, you can get more than half a month's information.
Su Mo thought it was okay. Although she had no money, she had some tickets. If the articles she wrote could be used frequently, she would be able to read newspapers for free in the future.
After opening the letter, Su Mo took out the remittance slip and looked at it, then sneered.
No matter what Yang Shien meant, as long as he dared to send it, she would dare to accept it. Who would think it was too much money?
Use the money to buy things for your parents in the cowshed. Isn’t it delicious?
But it is impossible to think that this small amount of money can be used as atonement for one's sins. She remembered that she should bear the grudge, and sooner or later the Yang family would have to pay the price.

Meeting room in the commune office building.
Geng Changqing, Li Hongjun and several members of the militia team were sitting around the desk with serious expressions on their faces.
Geng Changqing strengthened the militia team to patrol the mountains. A large part of the purpose was to find out if there were any hidden minions. Unexpectedly, the minions didn't notice it, but they actually found something on patrol.
A brigade of militiamen discovered a very hidden cave while patrolling in the middle of the mountains. There were not only traces of people living in it, but also a lot of food supplies and other materials, as well as a radio station. Judging from various traces, it has been around for a long time and has been used recently.
This was so serious that the militia team immediately sent two people to the commune to report the crime, while the others stayed there to guard the situation.
Now, that place has been taken over by the public security, and it is expected that the army will send people there soon.
Although this matter seems to be of no concern to them, the problem is huge. There is such an enemy hideout hidden in their commune, which means that the person is in their commune. If they don't find him out today, they will not be able to rest assured. People's lives are at risk.
The enemy agent is very crazy. If he has explosives or something, how many people will die?
But now, before they have a clue, they dare not alert the enemy. Geng Changqing also gave them a gag order, telling them not to leak any information, so as not to cause trouble to comrades in the public security and the People's Liberation Army.
Several people understood the seriousness of the matter and expressed that they would not reveal a single word from their mouths.
After a while, Geng Changqing returned to the office, leaning on his chair and squinting his eyes, feeling a little tired.
Suddenly, the phone rang. Geng Changqing picked it up and found that it was his old leader.
"Changqing, what's going on? Why should we consider it?" the old leader asked straight to the point.
Geng Changqing sighed, "Old leader, something happened here. I may not be able to leave for the time being, so I'd better continue to work in this position."
After Geng Changqing came here, his political achievements were really remarkable. This year, the county party committee secretary of Qingxi County will be transferred. The deputy secretary will be promoted to the next level and become the secretary. The vacant deputy secretary position will be prepared after discussion by the party committee. Let Geng Changqing go up.
But Geng Changqing did not agree immediately, but said he would think about it.
Mainly because it was a troubled time now, and he was afraid that he would not be able to protect Su Mo's family if he left Hongqi Commune.
"This opportunity is not easy to come by. This push may have to wait a few years."
"It only takes a few years. We have to get everything done." Geng Changqing didn't care much. Something happened to an enemy agent, and the excuses were all ready.
The old leader was silent for a while, and finally said: "I will keep this position for you for up to two years. You can handle all the big things for me within two years, and then you can become the deputy secretary."
After saying that, the old leader hung up the phone.
Geng Changqing listened to the beeping sound in the receiver, with a warm smile on his lips.
In this life, there are two people he wants to repay most, one is Su Zhongli who raised him up, and the other is the old leader who devoted himself to cultivating him.
