Rebirth in 1980, the rise of the golden age

Chapter 269 Withdrawal of Medication

Li Guanghu called Li Mei, and the couple set out the next day and rushed over directly.

Li Guanghu prepared a table full of food, and in the evening the whole family gathered together and had a good meal at home.

"Aunt, uncle, it will probably take ten days to half a month to collect the toads. During this time, you can stay at my father's place. The house has been cleaned up for you." Li Youcai said.

When Li Guanghu called Li Mei, he told her everything about collecting toads. He said that he would share half of the money he made between them, which touched Li Mei deeply.

"Youcai, thank you as an auntie. You spent money to help Tang Xin go to school, and now you let us make money for free. I feel a little guilty about this." Li Mei said with red eyes.

Tang Dali sat aside, rubbing his hands, his face full of anticipation. He was also happy about this event.

"thanks, thanks."

"Aunt, we are all family. It's too formal for you to keep saying thank you. How is Tang Xin doing in school?"

Ever since that girl went to boarding school, Li Youcai rarely sees his sister.

"Okay, I'll go to the parent-teacher meeting. The teacher said she is smart and learns things quickly. She was among the top three in the class in the last exam." Li Mei seemed very proud when talking about Tang Xin.

"Really? That's great." Li Youcai didn't expect Tang Xin to be so hardworking.

Li Youjie couldn't help but sigh: "That's great, we finally have someone in our family who has achieved academic success."

Li Guanghu heard this and said with a stern face: "In the past, sending you two to school was harder than asking pigs to pull a millstone. You can't blame anyone if you don't study."

"I just don't want to learn. When I look at the textbook, the knowledge doesn't enter my mind. There's nothing I can do about it." Li Youcai said with a smile.

"I'm the same as him." Li Youjie said cutely.

Li Mei looked at her two nephews, one of whom was the director of a bakery and the other was the general manager of a market, and she felt extremely proud.

"Brother, you are so ungrateful. Both of my nephews are promising people. If Tang Xin can be half as successful as them in the future, I will be very happy."

Li Guanghu felt very happy after hearing this.

After Li Mei and her husband arrived, Li Guanghu set up a large scale in his yard again and stacked rows of iron buckets.

Soon, the news that the Li family had collected toads again spread throughout the brigade through the brigade radio.

Last year, Li Youcai bought frogs from the members at the price of 5 cents per pound.

This year, since Li Youcai contracted the entire back mountain, the job was nominally changed to paid help catching frogs, still at 5 cents per pound. Whoever caught one would send it to Lao Li's house, and the payment would be made on the spot after weighing it.

With the propaganda from the brigade's loudspeakers, Dongsheng Brigade became lively again for a while.

Those who made money by catching frogs last year had a good year and are all ready to make another fortune this year. Those who didn't catch the rush don't plan to miss this opportunity to make money.

In order to catch more fish first, many people set out before dawn, carrying shoulder poles and flashlights, and heading up the mountain with several members of the family.

Li Guanghu once again borrowed the brigade's mule cart and transported the forest frogs brought by the members to the aquatic products company every day. He could earn nearly a thousand yuan for each trip.

After only working for a few days, Li Mei and her husband earned two thousand yuan. Tang Dali was so excited that he couldn't sleep at night looking at the piles of money.

"We're rich! Big Plum, we're rich! This time we don't have to count our days!"

"Next spring, we'll build a big brick house with red bricks and red tiles. Then we'll see who dares to look down on me."

Tang Dali could even imagine the envious looks of others in the village after his big brick house was built.

"I also need to buy you new clothes so that you can dress nicely."

"Look at your potential."

Li Mei had money under her pillow and was also too excited to fall asleep.

That's two thousand yuan. Li Mei never dared to imagine that she would have so much money in her life.

On the other hand, Li Youjie also rented a new warehouse and moved the more than 2,000 aluminum lunch boxes here.

As the weather gets colder, the ice cream business is also on the agenda.

-----------------

Time flies, and a month has passed in the blink of an eye.

The land of Teng County was once again covered with endless white snow, and people put on thick cotton jackets.

Jiang Yongbiao, who had been detained in the detention center, finally faced his final trial.

Jiang Yongbiao's act of negligently causing poisoning of multiple people constituted the crime of negligent release of dangerous substances. Considering that he surrendered himself, the court finally sentenced Jiang Yongbiao to three years and seven months in prison.

It’s not the one or two years that Zhong Yuanbing said!

In court, when Jiang Yongbiao heard the verdict, he was completely stunned.

In the gallery, Jiang Yongbiao's aunt and uncle also burst into tears.

For them, this result is equally unacceptable.

"How could this be? Didn't Mr. Zhong say it would only take one or two years at most? How could it be three and a half years?"

Dangdangdang...

"Quiet, people in the gallery, please pay attention to the order in the courtroom. This is the first warning. If you disrupt the order again, you will be expelled according to the law." The judge banged the gavel and issued a warning.

Jiang Yongbiao clenched his fists and looked back at his aunt and uncle. His eyes slowly changed from confusion to determination.

"Defendant, do you accept the judgment of this court? Do you appeal?"

Jiang Yongbiao gritted his teeth and said, "I won't appeal. I plead guilty."

After the trial, Jiang Yongbiao was handcuffed by the bailiff.

"Yongbiao, I'm sorry for you!" Jiang Yongbiao's aunt was already crying.

"It's okay, auntie. It's only been three and a half years. I'll be out soon. Don't worry. Take good care of Xiaochao. As long as he's alive and well, I'll be happy even if I'm in there." Jiang Yongbiao twisted his head desperately, with a smile on his face, and shouted at the top of his voice.

Without giving Jiang Yongbiao much chance, two bailiffs pressed him down and dragged him out of the courtroom through a dedicated passage.

Jiang Yongbiao was sent to Taihe City Prison in a police car, officially starting his life behind bars.

Cannery.

Zhao Hu hurried to Zhong Yuanbing's office and told Zhong Yuanbing the news about Jiang Yongbiao.

"Brother Bing, A Biao was sentenced to three years and seven months, and he didn't appeal."

Zhong Yuanbing's expression didn't change much when he heard this.

For him, when he chose Jiang Yongbiao as a scapegoat, he no longer cared about the other party's life or death.

"How long has it been since you gave money to Aunt A Biao's family for selling medicine?"

"I give it once a month, and it has to be paid just after this month." Zhao Hu replied.

"Give it once more next month, and then stop." Zhong Yuanbing ordered.

"The doctor said that once you take that kind of medicine, you can't stop taking it. Once you stop taking it, other medicines will not be effective for that tuberculosis patient. He might even die early." Zhao Hu whispered.

"What does it have to do with me?" Zhong Yuanbing looked at Zhao Hu with cold eyes.

"Hehe, of course it's okay." Zhao Hu said with an apologetic smile.
