Rebirth in 1958: Getting rich starts from Nanluoguxiang
Chapter 287: I became swollen and floated, and I didn’t know who I was anymore
Dabao and his grandparents came into the house. Grandma was about to cook. Dabao lifted the lid of the pot and saw that there were still steamed buns and a bowl of cabbage with a little bit of oil in it.
Dabao sat on the edge of the kang with his head down. He suddenly felt very powerless. He had brought so much fine grains for his grandparents, but now the two old people were still reluctant to eat or drink. This made him feel that he had no way out.
Old Qin looked at the old lady, who was also a little embarrassed. The two old people had worked hard for their children all their lives and were used to eating coarse food. Instead, they felt uncomfortable when they saw something good.
The old lady took Dabao's hand and said, "Grandson, grandma and grandpa have suffered a lifetime. The amount of fine grains we have eaten in the past six months is not as much as the amount we have eaten in decades. Your stomach is so used to eating simple meals that it feels uncomfortable after eating good food."
Dabao also understood this truth, but even though he understood it, he couldn't accept it.
"Grandma, I just want you to eat good food, keep your body healthy, and live a few more years. The longer you live, the more happiness we, your children and grandchildren, can enjoy..."
Grandpa puffed on his pipe for a while before saying, "We will eat it, of course we will, grandson, don't worry."
It took Dabao a while to recover from the shock.
At this time, there was a chatter of voices outside. The windows in Qinjiagou were not made of glass, but covered with mulberry paper, so it was impossible to see what was happening outside.
Old Qin, his wife, and Dabao went out and saw a group of people gathered in the yard. Qin Qinggui was talking excitedly, while Qin Qingfu was listening with envy, holding his pipe.
"I'm in the police station? Let's put it this way, everyone calls me uncle, even the deputy director."
Dabao smiled bitterly, what he said was true.
"The food is good too. There's plenty of white flour buns and meat every meal. We even had roast duck last night. I heard it's from some famous duck in the city."
The audience all shouted "Wow" and Qin Qinggui was so happy that his mouth was full of laughter.
"Look, the uniforms, shoes, and an iron thing..." Qin Qinggui took out the gun, which scared Dabao.
He yelled hurriedly: "Don't..."
Everyone was stunned by the roar. Dabao rushed to Qin Qinggui in two steps and snatched the gun away. After a closer look, he broke out in a cold sweat. The safety of the gun was on and the bullet was loaded.
"Uncle, have you fired a gun between last night and this morning?"
Qin Qinggui was a little confused: "Oh, Lao Gou taught me how to shoot a gun this morning."
Dabao pulled out the bullet and turned off the safety: "Didn't he teach you not to load the bullet normally?"
Qin Qinggui took off his hat and scratched his head: "I, I forgot."
At this moment, Dabao extremely regretted bringing his uncle to the police station. It was too dangerous.
Dabao put the gun into his bag, turned around and went into the house without saying a word.
The old lady was so angry that she grabbed the broom by the wall and hit Qin Qinggui twice, which made Qin Qinggui even more confused.
"Mom, what's wrong with me? Why are you hitting me?"
The old lady gnashed her teeth in hatred and said, "You deserve to be farming in the countryside for the rest of your life."
When the onlookers saw that something was wrong, they all left in shame.
After Old Qin and the others had left, he swung his arm and slapped Qin Qinggui in the face, then sighed heavily and went into the house with the old lady.
Qin Qinggui covered his face in shock. He was a police officer, wouldn't that bring honor to his family? Why was he being beaten?
"Brother Er Er..."
Qin Qingfu sighed: "Third brother, I thought I was stupid enough, but I didn't expect you to be even more stupid. Let me ask you, when you were in the police station, everyone respected you and praised you. Was it because of you?
Without your nephew, what are you in other people's eyes? And you are showing off before you even do anything?
Then just know what to eat and drink yourself, why are you showing off? We can't even get enough to eat, and you're giving us steamed buns and roast duck. You're really screwing over your nephew, you know?
You even took out the gun. I saw Dabao's face turned pale with fright. You said your gun was loaded. What if it hurt someone?
I think you should just stay home and farm, and don't cause any trouble that will implicate Dabao."
As soon as these words were spoken, Qin Qinggui was scared out of his wits. It would be fine if he didn't get this man, but once he got him, losing him again would be more painful than killing him.
When Dabao entered the house, he felt a sense of suffocation in his chest. He wanted his family to live a good life, but he didn't expect it to be like this.
Old Qin and his wife had no other options. Their three sons were all hopeless. Their personalities were actually inherited from Old Qin.
If he hadn't been so indecisive, always thinking about not offending his seventh brother, and had come out earlier to take charge of things, Qinjiagou would have been much cleaner.
Qin Qingfu pulled Qin Qinggui in. Qin Qinggui was a little embarrassed and said with a grin: "Dabao, I was wrong..."
Dabao stretched out his hand to stop Qin Qinggui from speaking, and said lightly: "Uncle, when I returned to the institute yesterday, I felt that everyone's mood was not right. Everyone called you uncle, and you accepted it all.
Now you are acting like the emperor in the police station. Yesterday, Sun Qian wanted to say something to me several times, but he kept it to himself. It seems that he wants to tell me about you.
Do you know who Secretary Han was yesterday? She's the wife of the Deputy Director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau. She was already sitting there, and you were still eating without a care in the world. If I hadn't sent you to the health center, would you have had a few drinks with her?
Uncle, do you think that when I was at the police station, everyone was giving me face? They were giving face to my uncle. How will other comrades view me if you act like this?
Also, I don't care how you show off to the villagers, but you shouldn't have taken out the gun. If it goes off accidentally and hurts someone, the end result will be you going to jail and I'll lose my job. Do you understand what you are doing? "
Qin Qinggui's face flushed red as if he had been slapped. He was too proud. Ever since he stepped into the police station, everyone spoke to him respectfully and praised him in everything, which made him quickly become arrogant and forget who he was. Now, after hearing what Dabao said, he realized how wrong he was.
"Dabao, I'm sorry. I know I was wrong."
Qin Dabao patted his arm and said, "It's only right for Mingyue and I to call you that. She's my girlfriend. If anyone in the institute calls you uncle again, you can't agree. We're not related, so just call her by her name."
Also, don't bring your gun. We'll talk about it later."
"I..." Qin Qinggui got a little anxious when he heard that he was not allowed to carry a gun. Old Qin raised his hand and slapped him in the face, shutting his words back.
The old man couldn't bear to kick him, mainly because he was afraid of getting his new clothes dirty.
After such a commotion, Dabao couldn't sit still any longer.
"Grandma and Grandma, we have to go. We came back this time to pick up my second uncle. Secretary Han from the commune wants to talk to my second uncle. The commune plans to merge Qinjiagou and Wangzhuang villages into a production team first to set an example."
Qin Qingfu became excited when he heard this. The commune secretary wanted to talk to him. Doesn't that mean that his position as production team leader is a done deal?
After getting out and on the motorcycle, Qin Qinggui no longer had the arrogance he had just now. He drove the motorcycle to the middle of the village and saw several people pulling it.
A woman cried out in tears: "Mom, this rice was given to us by Uncle Bao. He saved it for the children to make rice oil. You can't take it away..."
"I'm your mother-in-law, and I can't do anything about it. Baoguo has grown up and needs to be engaged. The woman's family wants 30 kilograms of cornmeal as a betrothal gift. Where can your father-in-law and I get this? Can you consider these 20 kilograms of rice as a loan from your father and mother? Let go!"
"Mom, how weak is the child? If Uncle Bao hadn't given me money and food, the child would have died. You, you don't even want a grandson? Dad, please say something."
"Baozhong, listen to your mother. It's more important for your brother to get married."
"Brother, you are so selfish. Just because your parents have married you off and you have a wife and children, you don't care about me anymore?"
"How am I selfish? I didn't spend a penny of my family's money to marry my wife. I earned it by chopping wood day and night. Mother, it doesn't matter if I starve to death, but I can't let my wife and son starve to death..."
"Qin Baozhong, you are such an unfilial person. You, you married a wife and forgot your mother..."
