Seventy Buddha Cannon Fodder

"Comrade, we have a bicycle ticket and want to buy a bicycle. Where can I find this bicycle?" Gu Mingdong greeted.

The lesbians at the bicycle counter were feeling bored, lying there thinking about their own affairs, when they heard the voice suddenly raised their heads.

What caught her eyes was a handsome face. She didn't know how to describe it for a while, but it was different from the men she usually met, and she was very good-looking.

These days everyone likes the Chinese character face, but this lesbian is different, she just likes it.

The appearance is in line with the aesthetics, and the lesbians suddenly become more patient and enthusiastic. They glanced at the bicycle tickets in their hands and pointed to the side: "The bicycles are all here."

There was a car parked at the counter, probably because it was covered with an oilcloth for fear of being knocked outside.

Gu Mingnan was surprised: "Is there only one left?"

The whole family looks like brothers and sisters, they all look alike. The younger brother's appearance is more in line with other people's aesthetics, but the lesbians think that the older brother is better-looking.

The lesbian didn't show her thoughts, but said with a smile: "This is a bicycle. The town issued a total of several tickets, and the supply and marketing cooperative will enter a few bicycles. This is the last bicycle."

Well, there is no choice at all.

Seeing their disappointed faces, the lesbians, who are usually too lazy to entertain, explained a few words: "You guys came too late, if you came earlier, there would still be permanent cards and little golden deer from Shanghai. Only this big golden deer is left."

After speaking, he took another look at Gu Mingdong, walked over and pulled away the oilcloth, revealing the bicycle inside.

At first they thought they could pick the best one, Gu Mingnan and the others were a little disappointed, but when they saw the bike clearly, all of them widened their eyes.

I saw a big golden deer parked there, the body of the car was black and translucent, the handlebars, rims and bells were all silver-white after electroplating, which could show people's faces. There is a golden "big golden deer" logo.

The body is very high, with the classic [-] bars in front, compared with the light and light little Jinlu, the Big Jinlu looks much more impressive.

However, the Everlasting brand from Shanghai is more fashionable, and the small Jinlu is smaller and much cheaper, so the big Jinlu is actually left behind.

The lesbians looked into their eyes and asked with a smile: "This is the only car left. Do you want it? If you want to buy other types, you have to wait until next month. If you want it, it's 150 yuan, and you can pay it with the ticket." You can ride away after paying the money.”

"Yes, yes." Although it was a bit more expensive than expected, Gu Mingnan still went to pay the money happily.

When he came over with the **, the lesbian checked it, and then pushed the car out.

"Comrade, check it out yourself. We will not be responsible if you discover any faults after leaving the supply and marketing cooperative."

So a group of people from the old Gu's family, big and small, squatted down to check, for fear of missing something.

The lesbian let them check, looked at Gu Mingdong and asked, "Comrade, why don't you go and have a look?"

Gu Mingdong also vaguely sensed the little girl's affection for him, he laughed from the bottom of his heart, and squatted down.

Seeing that he didn't talk to her, the lesbian was obviously disappointed, but she pouted and said nothing.

After reading it three times from beginning to end, Gu Mingnan stood up and said, "Brother, everything is good, not even a piece of paint has come off."

Gu Mingdong followed suit and looked at it. Not to mention the technology, the workmanship of the Golden Deer is very good, better than many modern brand-name cars that cost tens of thousands of dollars.

The lesbian looked at his side face, and couldn't help but said a few more words: "Can you ride a bicycle? This bicycle is tall and has a beam. When riding a bicycle, you can only pedal forward, not backward. It just stopped."

Gu Mingdong straightened up, and replied politely but indifferently: "We can ride a bicycle, comrade, thank you for your reminder."

The more he was like this, the more the lesbians liked him when they looked at him. The flickering eyes that looked at him made Gu Mingdong rub his nose and silently push his younger brother to the front.

The lesbian sensed what he meant, her cheeks paled slightly, she grabbed her braids and said, "You're welcome, this is my job too."

"Then can I ride away now?" Gu Mingnan asked anxiously.

Seeing that Gu Mingdong didn't even look at herself, the lesbian was disappointed in her heart, but she just saw that he was well-behaved and not so persistent, so she nodded to her younger brother: "You can ride away."

Seeing them going out, I remembered something again: "By the way, don't forget to apply for a license, or you will be fined if you go on the road without a license."

"Do you need a license to ride a bicycle?" This time it was Gu Mingdong who was surprised.

It was Gu Mingnan who knew about this, and said, "I know, I have to go to the Public Security Bureau to do this."

"Brother, you forgot. On the car that Yan Hai left for my cousin, there are steel stamps on the handlebars and girders, and the bicycle number plate has to be hung on the back. I heard my cousin say that you can only get a red book after you finish it." .”

Gu Mingdong thought about it carefully, and there really was.

"Don't worry, I asked the transportation team to issue a letter of introduction, and we will do it now."

In order to be able to ride a bicycle, Gu Mingnan has prepared very comprehensively, this time there is no need for Gu Mingdong to worry about it.

So Gu Mingdong followed his younger brother. Although he had a bicycle but no one rode it, he pushed it all the way to the Public Security Bureau.

Behind them, the lesbians at the counter craned their necks to look at their backs, feeling a little reluctant in their hearts.

She sighed, it's rare to meet someone who looks like her, but they are not interested in her, and she doesn't like the ones introduced by her family, she thinks everyone looks crooked.

Why is it so difficult to find someone?

The woman at the counter next to him came over and jokingly said, "Why, did you see this young man?"

Lesbians don't like people who gossip, so they turned their heads and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? I stand at the counter to work, and if I greet revolutionary comrades, will I be gossiped?"

But the woman seemed to see through everything, and said with a smile: "Actually, it doesn't matter if you really like it. If the family can afford a bicycle, they must have connections and money. Although they look like a countryman, but It's not that you can't marry."

The lesbian turned cold: "Don't talk nonsense, besides, workers, peasants and soldiers are good comrades now, why do you still look down on country people?"

"Hey, I'll just talk casually, why are you in such a hurry?"

The lesbian snorted coldly and ignored the gossiping woman, but was anxious about the marriage in her heart. Her parents, who were on blind dates, only cared about family affairs and character, and even agreed with her height of 1.5 meters.

It seems that she has to keep her eyes open, otherwise the man she marries will be too ugly, and the child she will give birth to in the future will definitely be ugly too, and she will have no hope of living.

Gu Mingdong didn't see the red book until Gu Mingnan took the proof of purchasing the bicycle and the letter of introduction issued by the transport team, and the road management department applied for the bicycle license.

Looking at the red star and the sketch of the bicycle, and the five big characters on the bicycle license, Gu Mingdong found it novel no matter how he looked at it.

Gu Mingnan was also happy: "From now on, our family will also have a car."

Pushing Cheng Liang Cheng Liang's bicycle on the road, it immediately attracted everyone's attention, and made the old Gu's family raise their heads involuntarily.

Gu Mingdong thought it was funny, and suggested: "I bought all the cars, second child, why don't you drive the three children home first."

The big golden deer is big enough to sit one in the front and two in the back, it will definitely be fine.

But Gu Liangchen hugged his father's arm: "Dad, let the second uncle take aunt back, I want to walk back slowly with you."

Gu Liangxing wanted to take the car very much, so he kept going around the car right now.

Gu Sanmei suggested, "This bike is still brand new. It would be a pity to ride it back. It's better to go back and tidy it up before riding."

Clean up, what is there to clean up on a new car, can't you just ride it?

Soon, Gu Mingdong knew what they meant by tidying up.

Gu Mingnan was also reluctant to ride home. He felt that the new car was old, and the car would be worn out after riding back.

When a group of people returned home, Gu Mingnan rummaged through boxes and cabinets, and took his sister and nephew with him, in a daze to make the car look different.

The beams, inclined beams and brackets were all covered with a thin layer of cloth, but all painted areas were covered. After a while, the brand new big golden deer was fully armed.

Gu Mingdong couldn't help but laugh: "Second brother, how can you ride like this?"

However, Gu Mingnan plausibly said: "Ride as you please, and it doesn't matter if you put on the bag."

This time, the two younger sisters stood by Gu Mingnan's side and said, "Second brother, you are so clever once in a while."

"Second brother's method is good. It's not easy to bump into it when you wrap it up like this. What a nice car, it would be a pity if the paint fell off."

Gu Mingdong shook his head with a smile, and suddenly remembered that Yan Hai's car actually had similar "packaging", but Yan's family used plastic paper, which didn't look too obvious.

Since his younger siblings were satisfied, Gu Mingdong did not comment on the ugliness of the bicycle.

After making sure that the big golden deer would not be injured, Gu Mingnan went up and rode around, but when he came back, he was followed by a group of young men.

Gu Mingdong took a look, and guessed that everyone in the production team who could run and dance followed to watch the excitement.

"Hey, take a look, don't start with it, if it breaks, I will have to pay you for it." Gu Mingnan said with a dark face.

"Brother, do you want to come and have a try?" Second Brother Gu greeted.

Gu Mingdong shook his head and refused. He didn't want to perform bicycle riding for all the children in the village: "There will be opportunities in the future."

At the end, he asked the two younger sisters: "Third brother, Xiao Bei, do you want to go up and have a try?"

"Let me try it." Gu Sanmei has tall legs and long legs. Although it is not as convenient as a man to ride, it is still stable anyway.

Gu Simei is not so good, she has never ridden a bicycle before, and now she is wobbly when she got on the bicycle, and she almost fell down several times, so scared that she quickly jumped off: "Let's forget it, wait until I'm taller Learn again."

Gu Mingdong helped out with an idea: "Xiaobei, don't straddle like them, ride directly from the slash."

Under his encouraging eyes, Gu Simei went up and tried again. Sure enough, riding from the side of the slash was smoother, but riding in this position for a long time must be tiring.

Finally able to ride away, Gu Simei couldn't help laughing, although she only came back after cycling around, her cheeks were flushed with excitement.

The twins were also eager to try. Gu Liangxing jumped so high that he was afraid that they would not see him: "Dad, second uncle, let me try, let me ride."

Gu Mingdong reached out and patted his son's forehead: "Forget it, a person is not as tall as the bar, and it is easy to fall if you can't support the ground when you ride it. Try again when you are older."

Little short legs are not qualified to ride a big cart, it is really not allowed by strength.

Gu Liangxing was immediately disappointed, his little face drooped.

Gu Mingnan laughed, and picked him up and put him on the back seat: "Go, Second Uncle will take you for a drive."

After finishing speaking, he picked up Gu Liangchen and put him behind him, while Gu Yun sat in front and rushed out with a huff, followed by a group of children.

Gu Sanmei repeatedly shouted: "Second brother, be careful, don't drop the child."

"Don't worry, I won't fall." Gu Erdi's answer, accompanied by the laughter of the three children, drifted in the wind.

The old Gu's family bought a bicycle, which became the hottest topic in the production team.

Bicycles are definitely a big item these days, let alone the cheap ones, it is not easy to get a bicycle ticket.

The old Gu family’s bicycle is also very grand, it can carry people and loads. During the Mid-Autumn Festival, Gu Mingnan asked his sister to sit in front, and all the gifts from the two of them were tied to the back stool. It came back easily.

This makes the people in the production team envious, but there are many people who are envious, but few can come to borrow a car with the cheek.

After all, the price of the bicycle is there, so Gu Mingnan almost treats the bicycle like an ancestor. Every time he rides home, he has to wipe it inside and out with a towel, leaving no dust on it.

Gu Sanmei teased him, saying: "The second child is more serious about taking care of this car than he is when he washes his face in the morning."

The second younger brother Gu said plausibly: "That's not true, my face won't fade, so it's worthless."

And he directly said to the outside world that he can die, and he will not borrow the bicycle.

The members of the commune are also very envious, but whoever makes Lao Gu's family have two workers, not to mention the way to get bicycle tickets, can afford the money.

Whether it's tickets or money, the members have no money, so they can only look at the ocean and sigh.

Not just outsiders, even Gu Sanshu's family didn't come to borrow the car. Gu Mingdong felt strange in his heart, and asked privately: "Third Uncle, it is definitely not allowed to borrow a car from others, but you are different. If you want to use it, just ride away."

Uncle Gu said, "I don't need it. Life was not the same when I didn't have a car."

"Besides, I came to borrow a car and you borrowed it, so it will be difficult to refuse other people in the future." After all, it is from a fellow villager, so let people talk about it when the time comes.

Gu Sanshu not only refused to borrow it himself, but also did not let the son of the head of the family borrow it.

Their family's attitude made the rest of the production team embarrassed to speak.

Gu Mingdong knew his kindness, and he didn't force it. He just let Gu Erdi take a few cousins ​​for a ride when the bicycle was free, and occasionally let the children with good relationships have fun.

Over time, more and more children are willing to come to Lao Gu's house to play, and this place has become the children's base camp.

A laughing voice came, and a trace of resentment flashed across Widow Liu's dead face.

She was doing needlework, and when she heard the crisp sound of the bicycle bell, she knew that the second son of the Gu family must be playing with the children of the production team again.

Widow Liu deflated the needle in her hair, and suddenly said: "Aihua, Xiaozhu, you guys also play together."

Liu Aihua glanced at her subconsciously. Since the death of her eldest brother, their mother has become more and more silent. She doesn't like to talk outside, and she doesn't like to talk to them inside.

Sometimes Liu Aihua thinks this is good, everyone works quietly and lives smoothly.

But occasionally, when Liu Aihua looked at her mother's bottomless eyes, she always felt scared in her heart.

Maybe it was the night when my sister-in-law was dying, she hid next door and heard the words of her elder brother and mother with her own eyes.

"Why, the old Gu family won't take you to play?" Widow Liu asked angrily.

Liu Aihua quickly replied: "No, it's just that there are so many children, and I don't know how long it will take. Mom, I'll help you with the work at home."

"Go to Xiao Zhu." Widow Liu insisted.

Liu Xiaozhu really wanted to go, but he looked at his sister and said obediently, "I'm also helping at home."

But Widow Liu glared at him suddenly: "What good can a boy do if he stays in the house all day, don't hurry up."

Liu Xiaozhu was taken aback by her, and subconsciously looked at her sister.

Liu Aihua frowned slightly, and nodded towards her younger brother, before Liu Xiaozhu ran out.

Only then was Widow Liu satisfied, she lowered her head and continued to sew, saying, "Why is their family doing so well while Dazhu died so miserably? Doesn't my son deserve to live a good life?"

These words made Liu Aihua terrified, she gritted her teeth and persuaded: "Mom, brother has been dead for so long, we all have to look forward, don't think about him anymore, okay?"

Unexpectedly, Widow Liu raised her head quietly, looked at her and said, "Of course you hope that he will die early."

Liu Aihua's heart skipped a beat.

She opened her mouth and wanted to say something more, but Widow Liu lowered her head and continued to work, turning her head and ignoring her.

For a while, Liu Aihua's heart felt cold, and she began to wonder if it was a mistake to come back here and live with her mother under the persuasion of the old Liu.

Liu Xiaozhu ran outside, and happened to see Gu Mingnan carrying the twins whizzing by, and the three of them laughed.

The cheerful laughter made Liu Xiaozhu grin, and ran along with him involuntarily.

This time the surrounding children did not crowd him out, because everyone's attention was on the bike.

I don't know how long it took, but finally it was Li Xiaozhu's turn. Gu Mingnan smiled and picked him up and put him on the horizontal bar.

With the breeze blowing across his cheeks, Liu Xiaozhu felt the ease and happiness he had never had before.

Carrying people around in circles is also what Gu's second brother is most passionate about.

So much so that Gu Sanmei complained to her younger sister: "The second child was probably a monkey in his previous life. He couldn't sit still for a moment, and he didn't know how to let the bicycle tires rest."

Gu Simei couldn't help laughing and said: "This is also very good. Since the second brother drove the child around, there have been fewer people in the production team talking harshly about our family."

Gu Sanmei snorted and said, "I'm not afraid of their harsh words."

It wasn't until it was dark that the road could not be seen clearly that the children finally dispersed.

Gu Mingnan sent the reluctant Liu Xiaozhu to the door of his house, and then returned home with his three children.

Gu Sanmei was a little surprised and asked: "Today the neighbor also came out, which is rare."

"Only Xiaozhu came out to play for a while, but didn't see Aihua." Gu Mingnan gulped down his water.

Gu Simei walked closer to Liu Aihua and whispered, "Aunt Liu won't let Aihua go around."

"It's unlucky for them to leave such a real mother." Gu Sanmei commented. "She might as well not go back."

"The situation in their family, how could they not go back." Liu Aihua didn't want to go back, and the Liu family definitely couldn't agree.

After hearing this, Gu Mingdong asked, "Is Aihua still coming to learn how to read from you now?"

Gu Mingbei shook his head: "She has no time during the day, and she is locked up at home at night, but the last time I saw her, Aihua said that sometimes when he went to the mountains to dig wild vegetables, he could learn from that Wu Xuanxuan for a while."

Every time he saw Liu Aihua's situation, Gu Mingbei felt very lucky.

Although her biological parents are gone, there is a brother who loves her and is willing to pay for her to study, unlike the parents of the production team, who usually think that it is useless for girls to study.

Thinking of this, Gu Mingbei stood up and said, "Brother, didn't you say you wanted to eat orange peel tea yesterday? I made some, try it and see how it tastes?"

Gu Mingdong took a sip and praised: "Fourth sister's craftsmanship is getting better and better."

Gu Simei also laughed, her eyes were curved like two crescent moons.

When Gu Mingnan was injured before, it was Gu Mingxi who drove him to and from get off work by car, and picked him up at the gate of the transportation team every day.

Now that the family has bought a new car, Gu Mingnan is determined to take his sister to and from get off work by himself. As long as he is here, he will never let Gu Mingxi fall again.

Gu Mingxi was grinning, and felt in her heart that her second brother was really stupid and tired from riding a bicycle, so she would rather sit on the back and be comfortable.

So now every morning, Gu Mingnan would send his younger sister to work first, and then turn around and go to the transportation team by himself.

This morning, he was still riding the Hot Wheels, but before he reached the gate of the transportation team, he saw Qian Xiaoru flirting with a woman.

Qian Xiaoru's face was not very good-looking, with rejection written all over her face.

The woman was full of enthusiasm, took her arm and said: "Xiaoru, come here, here are our homemade tea eggs, you can try it and see if you like it, if you like it, I will bring it to you next time."

Qian Xiaoru couldn't tell because she was suffering, and said repeatedly: "Sister Miao, I really don't need it. I don't like tea eggs. You should take them home with you."

"Look at you, why are you so polite? If my Taotao knew that we met, he didn't even treat you to a tea egg, so he can't blame me."

Just when Qian Xiaoru was in a mess, she suddenly heard a voice descending from the sky.

"Xiaoru, what are you doing?" Gu Mingnan shouted loudly.

Qian Xiaoru looked back, her eyes lit up instantly, she pulled Miao Fangfang's hand away, and walked towards Gu Mingnan.

"Hey, why are you leaving?" Miao Fangfang turned her head to look, her face darkened, "Xiaoru, who is this?"

Her eyes fell on the big golden deer bicycle, her face was not very good-looking.

Qian Xiaoru has been entangled by her for a long time, and when she saw Gu Mingnan's caring eyes again, her brain became hot for some reason, and she grabbed his arm and said, "This is my partner."
