Baiyue Cave Master

Chapter 31 Waiting for the Bus

After Wang Yuanchao chatted with Uncle Liu for a while, they discussed the material exchange in the village and figured out some simple things in the village.

"Hey, this is the educated youth who just arrived yesterday, he's so handsome."

Hearing the sound, Wang Yuanchao looked up and saw an old lady walking slowly towards the ox cart. It seemed that she was also going to the commune by ox cart.

The old lady looked like a typical rural woman. She was wearing a set of clothes full of patches and her head was wrapped in a gray cloth.

Her skin was relatively dark, and her face was covered with wrinkles like fish tails. She was a rural woman who had experienced many hardships.

Upon seeing this, Wang Yuanchao immediately put on a frank smile and said politely:

"Hello, Auntie. I'm Wang Yuanchao, the educated youth who just came to our village yesterday."

Wang Yuanchao has seen everyone's attitude towards him since yesterday.

I know that the educated youth who have gone to the countryside are still quite popular in the village. In the eyes of the villagers, this is a reflection of the country's care and attention to their peasant class, and the educated youth are here to help them develop.

"Hey, Wang Zhiqing, hello, hello,

My aunt's name is Li Lihua. You can call me Aunt Li or Aunt Lihua from now on."

Wang Yuanchao nodded without thinking too much. After all, he had just arrived here and was unfamiliar with the place. He would make as many friends as possible.

As for whether it is just a superficial friendship or a deep friendship, you can decide it after you get to know each other's personalities in the future.

"If you don't mind, I'll call you Aunt Lihua from now on. It's more intimate this way."

Aunt Lihua looked at the graceful Wang Yuanchao, her face looked a little immature.

But the smile given to her just now was like a beautiful lilac flower, which made Li Cuihua feel better.

"Hey, it's good to be kind, it's good to be kind. After Wang Zhiqing came to our place yesterday, did you feel uncomfortable?"

Wang Yuanchao felt Aunt Lihua looking at him intently, smiled shyly at Aunt Cuihua, and said:

"It's OK, Aunt Lihua. Since I chose to go to the countryside to support rural construction, I have already prepared myself for the hardships.

After arriving at the village yesterday, I found that our village is better than I thought, and the village cadres are also very enthusiastic. I can get used to it. "

"It's good to get used to it. The people in our brigade are nice and the customs are good. Girls from the surrounding villages all want to marry into our brigade.

Wang Zhiqing is young, knowledgeable, and from the city. He will be very popular here."

"Li Lihua, what are you talking about?"

Wang Yuanchao looked over and saw a woman with very rough skin, a very sturdy figure, and clothes that were obviously many years old and covered with patches coming over.

He was wearing a pair of black straight pants, which were also patched up, and a pair of cloth shoes on his feet, which were also patched up. He spoke to Li Cuihua in a loud voice.

Li Cuihua did not directly answer the woman's question, but said:

"Mother Chunhua, didn't you go to the commune these days?

Why are you going again today?"

"Oh, isn't it true that there is no clothes to wear at home?

My three boys, Chuncheng, Chunjin and Chunwu, only have one set of clothes to wear during the winter.

I finally exchanged the bacon, preserved chicken and eggs from my home for some cloth coupons from the purchaser of the electric motor factory in the city.

I want to make two sets of clothes for my family.

As a result, I went to the commune for many days in a row, but I didn’t get any cloth. I was so upset about the money I spent on the ox cart. ”

When Wang Yuanchao heard the conversation between the two aunties, he suddenly felt a little bitter. People at that time were really having a hard time.

It's really incomparable to the previous life. In the society of the previous life, industrial materials in the world had already been in surplus. How could there be a situation where several people wore the same set of clothes? Even patched clothes were not worn by anyone.

The longer Wang Yuanchao has lived in this era, the more he can understand the country's development from poverty to industrialization at the beginning of the founding of the People's Republic of China.

How difficult it is for a country to develop and how hard people’s lives are.

"Yes, I also went to the commune to grab some cloth. A new batch of cloth is arriving today. I hope I can grab some today."

"Oh, that's difficult."

Wang Yuanchao couldn't help but interrupt and said:

"Aunt Lihua, since you can't buy cloth at the commune's supply and marketing cooperative, why don't you go to the county or city to buy it?

From what I understand, the distance to the city or county is not far from the commune, right?"

"Oh, Wang Zhiqing, you don't know that to go to the county or city, you need a letter of introduction from the brigade.

Let's not talk about the trouble first. It's not important. The team also asked us not to go.

They said they were afraid that the people in our village didn't understand the rules of the city, and might accidentally cause trouble in the county or city.

It will affect the selection of the advanced brigade in the team and the honor of the brigade.

If there is something good happening in the commune, it won’t be our team’s turn.”

Wang Yuanchao was filled with emotion. In this era, people valued the glory of labor and ordinary people were honest and obedient.

Listen to the Party and follow the Party. Many ordinary people regard honor as more important than their lives.

If this happened in the countryside in the past, what? The village chief wouldn't let us go to the city? What is the village chief? Nothing...

But given the national and public sentiments, Wang Yuanchao could only smile and say:

"Then I hope that Aunt Lihua and Auntie will be satisfied today and get the cloth they like."

"Hey, the kid from the city always speaks sweetly.

I am Zhou Da Niu from the village, what is your name, baby?"

"Hello, Aunt Zhou. My name is Wang Yuanchao and I am 16 years old."

"Oh, he is still a kid, but fortunately, in our village, he is old enough to get married.

Aunt Zhou knows everyone in the surrounding area. She will introduce you to a good girl with big arms and a plump butt.

I promise you a wife and children, a warm bed, and a happy life in the future."

Aunt Cuihua couldn't bear it anymore and said:

"Hey, Chunhua's mother, you don't want to introduce your Chunhua to Wang Zhiqing, do you?

You're calculating so fast, it's almost going to hit someone in the face."

"Hey, I'm just taking the initiative. Who told you that you don't have a girl of the right age?"

"Mother Chunhua, I'm not saying anything, but with Chunhua's conditions, how can she be worthy of Wang Zhiqing? What are you thinking?"

"Hey, Li Lihua, you are so ugly, right?

Wang Zhiqing hasn't said anything yet, do you need Li Lihua to talk too much here?"

At this time, several aunties came to the side of the ox cart unknowingly. After hearing the quarrel between the two, they gathered around and joined in the argument.

"Yes, this is the educated youth who came yesterday. He is so handsome.

Mother Chunhua, given your daughter Chunhua's conditions, do you dare to introduce her to this educated youth comrade?

You really dare to think so."

"That's right, you're trying to strike first. Do you think that educated youth comrade likes your Chunhua?"

"Yes, Chunhua mother, you are treating the educated youth from the city as fools."

"What's the matter, you bunch of bitches, are you going to make trouble with me?

What's the matter? Our Chunhua is not good enough, but your money-losing ones are good enough?"
