Quick Wear: The Wronged One Becomes Rebellious

"However, our team is not far from the town. If we walk fast, we can get there in just an hour and a half."

One and a half hours is indeed bearable, but how to transport Guli’s luggage back?

Based on her understanding of her parents, the luggage they packed for her must be not small.

"If you buy too much to carry, you can look for bullock carts going to the countryside at the exit of the city. Some teams have people who drive mule carts or bullock carts to transport people. You can give them a little extra money and ask them to help deliver the goods to the team."

Gu Li was so grateful that she put some candy in her pocket when she returned to the dormitory. At this moment, she took out a handful and stuffed it into the captain's wife's hand, saying, "Thank you so much, Aunt Mai Sui, for telling me this."

When the captain's wife saw the handful of Golden Monkey candies being stuffed into her mouth, she felt a little embarrassed to accept them. "Hey, what's the big deal? You should have known it if you asked more!"

Seeing her refuse, Gu Li waved to a little girl hiding at the door of the main hall, "That's your little baby, so cute. This candy will sweeten her mouth. Auntie, please accept it."

The little girl was a little shy and didn't come over, but her big eyes were always staring at the red candy wrapper in her grandmother's hand.

Seeing this, the captain's wife no longer refused, and went into the house, took out two small bamboo baskets and gave one to each of them.

Gu Li saw that the captain's wife was easy to get along with, and was happy to accept her kindness.

As for human relationships, they can only last long if there is give and take.

After Gu Li came out of the captain's house, she went straight out of the village and headed for the town. Xu Qiao helped her take her backpack and small basket back to the educated youth center, and she also told the people at the educated youth center that she would not be back for lunch.

Go up the road at the entrance of the village and walk south. Continue forward when you reach a fork in the road. After passing three forks in the road, you will see some lively places. The road under your feet will also change from mud to cement or stone slabs.

Gu Li didn't even need to ask for directions, she quickly found the main street, as this was the only street with a lot of people.

From a distance, there was a place that looked like a supply and marketing cooperative, and there was a long line of people. I didn't know what kind of popular goods that didn't require tickets had arrived in the supply and marketing cooperative today.

Gu Li was not in the mood to be curious, so she asked someone for directions to the post office and continued walking forward.

The main road is also lined with low houses, with Chairman Mao's classic quotations everywhere on the walls. Most of the pedestrians on the road are in a hurry. Occasionally, a person passes by on a bicycle, ringing the bell, and passes by.

Gu Li quickly found the post office. When she received the large package that had been sent from her home a long time ago, she was still shocked even though she was mentally prepared.

It was tied up tightly like a bomb and needed two salesgirls to carry it to the floor in the hall.

Gu Li:-----

She couldn't even get to the door of the post office, let alone move to the exit of the city.

At this moment, Gu Li deeply felt the heavy love from Gu's parents. She secretly vowed to live well and not let them see her die.

An old lady in the post office saw that she couldn't take the things away and winked at her. Gu Li approached the old lady very politely and pretended to pick up a few newspapers on the counter before asking, "Auntie, you are well-informed here, can you help me think of a way to deliver this big package to the exit of the city?"

The aunt looked around and whispered, "I can find someone to help you move your things on a cart, but----"

"Don't worry, auntie." Gu Li picked up a few newspapers she picked up at random. Each newspaper cost only 10 cents. She took three newspapers and it only cost 15 cents. But Gu Li handed three one-dollar bills to her auntie, "This is the money from selling the newspapers."

The aunt understood immediately and quickly put the money under the counter. She used the cover of the counter to put the two banknotes into her pocket. She put one dollar into the public cash drawer and gave change to Gu Li.

"Wait for me." The aunt happily asked her colleague to help her watch the counter, and she left on the pretext of going to the toilet.

After a while, the aunt came back and when she passed by Gu Li, she told her that someone was outside.

Gu Li leaned over to take a look and saw that it was a handcart.

Perhaps because Gu Li had paid enough, the man pushing the cart helped her move her large luggage onto the cart without Gu Li having to do anything. When they reached the exit of the city, he also thoughtfully helped her move the luggage onto the mule cart that would take her to the countryside.

Unexpectedly, the luggage was taken so smoothly. Gu Li looked at her luggage which took up half of the mule cart, so she simply waved her hand and gave him a dollar to buy his cart.

The old man driving the cart was in a good mood. He had originally planned to wait here until noon and then another trip in the afternoon. Now it was still early. After sending the female comrade back to the Unity Brigade, he would have time to come to the city again to do some work.

Gu Li also wanted to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy some daily necessities, but she felt a little scared when she thought of the long and crowded crowd.

The old man saw Gu Li's dilemma and asked her what she wanted to buy. He tapped the pipe in his hand and said, "If you want to buy toothpaste, perfume or something, I don't have the ability to buy it. But if you want eggs, rice, noodles or something, you have found the right person."

The old man is old and his only daughter has married and moved away. He can't do heavy work in the fields, so he relies on driving a mule cart every day to earn a little money to supplement the family income.

The team took special care of him and turned a blind eye to his actions.

After doing this business for a long time, of course you will meet some people who bring things from the countryside to the city to sell, commonly known as "dodgers".

Some families in the village would take the eggs they saved to the supply and marketing cooperative in town to sell, while others would directly ask him to sell them on their behalf, so the old man's channels for agricultural products were still very wide.

So, the two of them agreed that if Gu Li needed him, he should wait for him at the intersection at six o'clock tomorrow morning, as his mule cart would pass by the village.

Gu Li was not used to the coarse grains here. The thin porridge last night was already tasteless enough, but who would have thought that the coarse grain steamed bread this morning would refresh her perception again. It was so hard that she could not chew it, and it was hard to break into pieces. It also got stuck in her throat.

The food we received from the team leader in the morning was a combination of fine grains and coarse grains. There were less than ten pounds of fine grains, and the rest were coarse grains, broken corn, and sweet potatoes with teeth.

She just wanted to buy some eggs and boil them in water, or buy a small pot and cook some thick porridge for herself. She didn't want to have white rice because she would have to think of a side dish when the time came.

Alas, if she could survive today intact, her future life would be very worrying.

The old man's home was just a small team behind the Tuanjie Brigade, and he was not unfamiliar with the Tuanjie Brigade. He helped Gu Li deliver her luggage to the Youth League Home before leaving.
