Daily life of female supporting actresses in the 1970s

Time passed slowly, and Wang Lanhua's heart felt like it was being scratched by a cat's claws, and she couldn't calm down.

Finally, the village chief came back. Wang Lanhua anxiously dragged him into the inner room, slammed the door, and then lowered her voice to tell him about the gifts given by Qiao Lei and others.

The village chief was so exhausted from the journey that his hands and feet were almost frozen into popsicles.

I was dragged into the inner room as soon as I got home. I felt so depressed.

However, when he heard that Qiao Lei and the others came to give him gifts, his face was full of surprise.

After learning that Wang Lanhua had already taken the money, he immediately no longer felt cold.

How can you cool down when you are full of anger?

This money-hungry spendthrift woman took the money without even asking him whether he could get the job done.

From the first time Qiao Lei and the others came to apologize to their subsequent interactions, Village Chief Zhao had always been wary of these two people.

He always felt that one of these two people was stingy and jealous, while the other was also stingy but vindictive.

How could she suddenly come to apologize to him and you? She must have something to ask for help.

If he had no purpose, given the personalities of those two people, even if he lowered his face to apologize, they might not necessarily smile at him.

Sure enough, they had been prepared for a long time and were waiting for this day.

But he never expected that his wife would fail him at the critical moment.

But in my heart, I have a much higher opinion of Qiao Lei. Needless to say, this must have been Qiao Lei's idea!

If Lin Xiaomei had half the cleverness of Qiao Lei, she would have gone back to the city long ago.

Qiao Lei should have known about the school being built in the village a long time ago, and also knew the content of his meeting today, and she also knew that he had been on guard against the two of them.

So while he was not at home, she dug a hole and asked Wang Lanhua to install it.

If a school is built in the village, the teacher will definitely be the leader. There is no suitable person in their family, so it doesn't matter who the school is given to.

What I give to Qiao Lei might be useful to him in the future.

Just thinking about the character and popularity of these two people gives me a headache, especially Lin Xiaomei's.

People don't care about it normally, but they will definitely bring it up when it comes to their own interests.

Thinking of this, Village Chief Zhao said to Wang Lanhua with a stern face, "Hurry up and return the money to them. Don't forget that in our village, everything has to be voted on by the villagers. It's not up to me alone to decide. And you know the character of those two girls, especially Lin Xiaomei. The villagers will definitely not agree to let them become teachers. If I give them the money directly, those women in the village will eat me alive!"

Wang Lanhua asked in surprise: "What teacher?"

Village Chief Zhao mentioned the village's recruitment of teachers and lectured Wang Lanhua, "Do you really think those two are so easygoing? They showed no mercy when they confronted me. Now they're suddenly apologizing and making amends, and then getting so close to you. Do you really think they're trying to get close to you because I'm the Party Secretary and in charge of the educated youth? They're only trying to curry favor with you because I'm the teacher."

"I was wondering why these two people suddenly became nicer."

Wang Lanhua then realized that she had thought she was smart all her life, but in the end she was still fooled by two little girls when she was old.

Those two people used to fight with villagers over trivial matters.

However, being a teacher is indeed different from other jobs. The branch secretary cannot arrange it directly. Just like village cadres, it will only count if the villagers vote in favor.

If the votes are almost the same, his old man can decide.

Village Chief Zhao warned again, "Return the things. If this doesn't work out, with their personalities, we'll lose all our reputation in the village, and even our position as village chief won't be secure. And you, if you keep accepting things from others, don't blame me for not considering our children's reputation and sending you back to your parents' home."

Although he didn't like people coming to him empty-handed, it was really stupid to just take money.

It would be fine if Wang Lanhua just accepted some things normally, but now she even dares to accept money. She will become lawless in the future.

I didn't agree to marry this short-sighted guy in the first place.

Wang Lanhua felt a little reluctant to spend the money. It was a hundred yuan and the Dacron fabric for two shirts!

But she was afraid that if she didn't return the money, the two little girls might torture her, so she decided to return the money quickly.

The good impression I had of Qiao Lei and Lin Xiaomei before was gone. The saying "no one comes to visit you for no reason" refers to these two people.

Qiao Lei had anticipated this, so not only did she not take the money, she also gave him a bottle of cold cream.

She smiled and said, "Aunt Lan, just ask the village chief to give us at least two places for the educated youth. Don't bother the village chief with the rest."

Wang Lanhua was delighted when she heard this and took it back, telling the village chief about Qiao Lei's conditions.

The village chief thought about it and decided that it would be okay to just give the quota to the educated youth and leave the others alone. So he nodded in agreement.

However, the village chief also warned Wang Lanhua not to accept gifts randomly in the future.

A few days later, Village Chief Zhao received news that they were recruiting teachers this time and that candidates had to pass an exam before they could be hired.

Only then did he understand what Qiao Lei had meant before, and he couldn't help but sigh that he had really underestimated Qiao Lei in the past.

Village chief Zhao hesitated for a whole night, and finally gave a copy of the test paper to Wang Lanhua, asking her to give it to Qiao Lei and the others.

Since you have taken their money, you should at least show some appreciation, otherwise you will die without knowing how.

At the same time, a copy was also given to the team leader and Accountant Li.

Wang Lanhua was steaming sticky rice dumplings at the time, so she wrapped the dumplings with test paper and asked her grandson to deliver them to Qiao Lei and the others.

With Qiao Lei's cleverness, she could guess her intention without her having to say anything.

But she was too careful, and this scene happened to be seen by Li Ying who came back from washing clothes!

Li Ying couldn't help but feel suspicious, thinking about how her parents-in-law had been whispering in the inner room these past two days, and wondered if they were hiding something from them.

She asked tentatively, "Mom, who are you giving all these sticky rice dumplings to? We gave all the rhubarb rice this year to my eldest and second brothers' families, and there's not much left."

Wang Lanhua angrily scolded her, "When has the family ever lacked food for you or clothes? I brought some things to your eldest and second brothers' homes, and you keep talking about it. Now it's yours, or do you want to be the boss?"

Li Ying felt strange and aggrieved, but she didn't dare show any dissatisfaction on her face. She was extremely angry in her heart.

There were only four people in my family who shared the food in the village, and there were only 40 kilograms of rhubarb rice.

It would be fine if I just sent it to my two uncles, but I also have to send it to my eldest sister-in-law’s home in the capital!

My sister-in-law didn't earn any work points in a year. Not only did she use their work points to share grain, but she also sent her fine grain to subsidize her husband's family.

Whenever there was something delicious at home, she and her son would come over, and she would say every day that her food was not eaten, but it was not like she had not earned any work points.

Seeing that she didn't dare to say anything, Wang Lanhua felt both proud and disgusted with her unpresentable appearance, and was too lazy to argue with her.

After the sticky rice dumplings were steamed, Wang Lanhua gave some to her little daughter.

Even though they live in the same yard, the mother and daughter always have endless sweet things to say to each other.
