A 1970s mom raises a cute baby, and a crazy boss spoils her
Chapter 258 Loach and Eel
She also gave eight to Zhu Chunlin and Lin Shengnan.
Thinking that he might meet other educated youth at the educated youth site, Gu Qinghuan deliberately brought a few more with him.
Fortunately I brought it, otherwise it would be quite embarrassing.
A new batch of educated youth was sent to the educated youth site this year. When she arrived, she happened to meet the educated youth returning from work. A large group of people poured in, which was quite scary.
Lin Shengnan was also working despite her bulging belly, but because she was a pregnant woman, the work assigned to her was relatively easy.
Gu Qinghuan took out the extra qingtuan he had brought and distributed them to other educated youth, leaving only one box for Lin Shengnan.
There were many unfamiliar faces at the educated youth point, so she directly gave the Youth League balls to Jiang Xue and asked her to be responsible for distributing them. She then became a little more familiar with the place.
Jiang Xue didn't expect that she would share the Qingtuan with her regardless of the past. She was somewhat flattered and accepted it, with an expression of disbelief on her face: "Thank you."
"We made a lot, share it among you!" said Gu Qinghuan.
The other educated youth who had never seen Gu Qinghuan looked at her curiously, especially two male comrades, who looked at her openly without any concealment.
This woman is so beautiful and she dresses nicely. She doesn’t look like a country girl at all and I don’t know what her identity is.
Lin Shengnan directly pulled Gu Qinghuan into her room to avoid the gaze of these people.
Jiang Xue distributed the green dumplings, giving each person one. There were two left, and she couldn't divide them any further, so she just gave them all to herself.
After being hungry for a whole day, eating a bite of Qingtuan not only makes your stomach feel comfortable, but also makes you feel indescribably happy.
A new male educated youth asked Jiang Xue: "Comrade Jiang, is the comrade who just sent us to the Youth League a member from Xujiatun? How come I have never seen him before?"
Jiang Xue said without even raising her head: "Why, are you attracted to her?"
The gay man shyly turned his face away, thinking he could hide his feelings.
"No, I just felt that I should express my gratitude for accepting her Qingtuan."
"Don't even think about it. She's a married woman. You'd better not mess with her!"
Even a proud man like Chen Jianghe cannot get the love he wants, let alone people like them.
Jiang Xue suddenly realized that she hadn't thought about Chen Jianghe for a long time.
It turns out that no matter how strong the love is, it will eventually fade away. Now she just wants to live a good life. Love is already a luxury to her.
"You're already married..." That's a pity.
The gay man was a little distraught.

"Here, don't say I didn't think about you. This is specially for you. Luckily I brought some extra, otherwise there wouldn't be enough to share." Gu Qinghuan took out the lunch box and handed it to Lin Shengnan.
"The Qingtuan you made? I'm really craving it. When I was a girl, I used to make Qingtuan every year in my hometown. People in the north make it less often.
You don’t know that when a pregnant woman is craving for food, she will keep thinking about it and won’t stop until she has eaten it.
Zhu Chunlin had originally said that he would not go to work tomorrow after the holiday, and would go to the mountains to find some mugwort to make it himself. Now you have brought it to me, which really touches my heart.
Well, I'm drooling just by smelling it, don't laugh at me, I'll try one first to satisfy my craving." Lin Shengnan said, picked up one and took a bite, letting out a satisfied sigh.
"It's delicious, sweet but not greasy, Qinghuan, your hands are so skillful, it seems you can do anything well." Lin Shengnan ate a green dumpling filled with red bean paste.
"It's not a coincidence, it's just a matter of care."
"You've seen it just now, right? A new batch of educated youth has arrived this year.
Alas, our good days are over since they came.
The youth league site here is small to begin with, and the kitchen has to be used at different times. There's a small quarrel every day, and a big quarrel every three days, which is really annoying.
Several new educated youth felt that it was inappropriate for Chunlin and I to occupy one room, so they ran to Secretary Xu and asked us to move out because their house was not big enough.
Secretary Xu has already told Chunlin and me that we should find a way to move out within a month.
Either they can find someone to stay with in the village, or they can build their own house and he will approve the land for them. ” Lin Shengnan was a little sad.
"Build it yourself! One or two rooms will be enough for you to live in." Gu Qinghuan said carefully.
“Of course I think I have built it well, but the key is that this house does not belong to us. It belongs to the village. If there are any changes in the future, we will not even have the right to dispose of the house.
No matter what choice we make, it will be frustrating, but we have to choose.
Well, let’s build it! Chunlin and I plan to build a house first, with a small kitchen. We can’t afford more now.
We had saved up some money with great difficulty to use as an emergency measure when we have a baby, but now we have to take it out first.
Fortunately, building a house in the countryside doesn’t cost much except for the labor cost, otherwise we would be really at a loss.”
"It's better to move out. You're going to give birth in a few months. There are too many people here and they're all gossiping. It's not good for you to rest and recover when everyone is together. The baby crying will also cause trouble.
It's just the right time to move out now. It's quick to build a house, and it's more comfortable to live in your own house." Gu Qinghuan deeply understands this.
I used to live in a youth education center. I had no privacy at all and was watched no matter what I did.
"That's right. Chunlin has to make adobe bricks right after work. He has no time to rest. We want to repair the house and move out as soon as possible to avoid being with these people.
By the way, have you planted your vegetable garden? I'll help you this afternoon."
Lin Shengnan felt a little embarrassed. She had always said that she wanted to help Gu Qinghuan, but in reality it was others who helped them.
Gu Qinghuan was at school all day and there was not much work to do at home.
"I've planted them, so leave me alone and take a good rest when you have time."
Gu Qinghuan felt that her life was not easy.
"By the way, if you are short of money, just let me know and I can lend it to you so we can get through this difficult time.
Things will get better.”
"Okay, thank you. If I need anything, I will ask you." Lin Shengnan said gratefully.
After she finished eating a green dumpling, she covered it with the lid and stopped eating, obviously wanting to save it for Zhu Chunlin to come back and eat together.
Poor couples don’t necessarily have to be sad about everything, as long as you can see and be grateful for the little details in life.
As the two were talking, Zhu Chunlin came in carrying a wooden barrel.
"Comrade Gu is here? That's great. Look, what I caught today?" Zhu Chunlin happily brought his wooden barrel over to show the two of them.
The weeds on the barrel were removed, startling both of them.
He gasped and shrank into the corner.
There was a pile of long and thick mollusks coiled in the bucket, twisting their bodies constantly. There was a full half bucket of them.
Gu Qinghuan thought of snakes at first, but judging from the color, it didn’t seem to be a snake.
Lin Shengnan recognized this thing, and she walked up to him angrily and slapped Zhu Chunlin on the arm.
"We were so scared! Where did you get these loaches? They are so big."
Zhu Chunlin put down the bucket with a smile.
"When I was digging in the mud on the riverbank, I saw some things burrowing in the mud. Here are some of them.
Although this thing tastes like mud, it is meat after all, and is better than nothing.
This time of year is a good time to catch loaches. This period is the mating and breeding period for wild loaches, and they will come out frequently.
By the way, there are not only loaches, but also two eels. These are good stuff and are warming and tonic.
Many folk doctors use eels as a folk remedy to treat diseases.
I will catch some more loaches and eels to raise and provide you with nutrition." Zhu Chunlin said happily.
"By the way, Comrade Gu, take a few with you when you go back later."
Gu Qinghuan shook her head frantically. Although she quite liked eating eels, that was only when others cooked them for her.
She would never dare to touch these mollusks on her own; they are too scary.
However, she suddenly had an idea.
I've always said that I would try to find a way to pull them together, but I never had the chance.
Isn't this the best opportunity?
She was fortunate enough to eat wild eels once. The chef said that this kind of wild eels, if big, would cost at least one hundred yuan per pound.
Wild loaches weigh about 50 to 60 kilograms.
These things can be seen everywhere in rural areas nowadays, but in later generations they will be desirable items that everyone will flock to.
Gu Qinghuan called the two of them over, closed the door, and said in a very low voice: "You should know that my family has a good living standard. In fact, I have connections that can buy a lot of things, and of course, I can also sell things.
I think your loaches and eels are good. If you want to make money, I can help you sell them. The price will definitely be fair!
If you catch these things in the future, I can also collect them. I can't say I can make a lot of money, but it will be no problem to earn some hard-earned money."
The couple had long known that Gu Qinghuan was no ordinary person, and they also knew that she must have resources, but they did not expect that she would be willing to trust them and take them with them to make money. After all, these days, everyone has to take care of their own business.
It is easy to throw stones at someone when he is down, but it is difficult to help someone in need.
They were completely in the dark and had no idea how to make money, but now that the road had been paved right before their eyes, how could they not agree?
After they looked at each other, Lin Shengnan immediately expressed her opinion: "Of course I am willing, Qinghuan, thank you for thinking about us, don't worry, we will definitely keep this matter to ourselves and not let others know.
It's free anyway, you decide the price, and we'll split the money in half. No matter what, I won't let you work for nothing."
Gu Qinghuan was very satisfied with their attitude. After all, no one wanted to help an ungrateful person.
She thought about it in her mind.
She plans to sell the loaches at 60 cents per pound and the eels at one dollar per pound.
