But when she settled down, Zheng Lanying was dumbfounded. There wasn't even an iron pot here. What should she do now?
She came to Ma Changshun's house again, crying and asking where she could get the pot.
Ma Changshun was also in a dilemma. How about he just go to Team Leader Chen and stay there? Thinking of this, he glared at the eldest daughter.
Ma Dongmei didn't think this was any trouble at all.
"Lanying, go to the field department to buy it. You still lack too many things. You came at the wrong time. It's so cold now. You need a lot of firewood. Although the food is given to you, you still have to grind it.
Yes, you have to go to the field department for this.
You don't have any pots and pans, but you can buy them at the store.
There are also Kang mats, why should we have some light this late at night?"
Zheng Lanying was dumbfounded when she heard Ma Dongmei's words. She didn't think that much at all.
So he looked embarrassed. "Dongmei, I only have less than a hundred yuan in my hand. This little donkey hasn't been found yet. I don't have money to buy these."
"You have no money?"
Zheng Lanying nodded whether she wanted to cry or not, looking pitiful.
This Ma Dongmei is a person who treats those who are superior and those who are inferior. Looking at Zheng Lanying's behavior, she thought she was a rich person. But she didn't expect that she was nothing.
So she was not so enthusiastic.
"Lanying, you only have this little money, but you can't buy a little donkey."
"Then what should I do? I don't know anyone here. What should I do?" As he said this, he squatted down and started crying.
Ma Changshun glared at Ma Dongmei again.
"Lanying, actually it's not impossible. Can't you just plant a hundred acres of land?"
"But I really can't do it anymore. Even thinking about this number, I don't have the courage."
"Then there is no way, then you have to find a way yourself."
Zheng Lanying knew that Ma Dongmei couldn't help at all, so she still had to find Ma Changshun.
"Team Leader Ma, you can't live without watching, right?"
"I'll take you to Director Feng to apply for advance payment and subsidies."
Now Zheng Lanying felt relieved. As long as she could borrow it, it would be fine.
Ma Changshun was angry, but if he accepted it, he had to find a way.
He drove Zheng Lanying to the field office again. At this time, Feng Baoshan had just come back and wanted to go home for lunch.
"What are you doing?"
Ma Changshun's face was full of depression, "Director Feng, this Comrade Zheng can't farm one hundred acres, so the minimum standard is fifty acres."
Feng Baoshan nodded. Looking at this girl's superficial skills, he had already thought that she was at best the lowest standard.
Zheng Lanying saw that Ma Changshun couldn't hit the mark either. She was anxious, so she might as well do it herself.
"Director Feng, I'm on my own. That's why I came here from the village.
I don’t have any money, but I still want to buy a donkey, and I don’t have any daily necessities.
Can our field department help me?"
Feng Baoshan sat down and looked at Zheng Lanying.
“Of course the field department will help those who are really in difficulty.
But this is not temporary. It needs to be paid off within two years."
"Director Feng, I can definitely do it. Don't worry, I will definitely pay it off in two years."
She knows that as long as she completes the task, she will get paid.
"Comrade Zheng, you lack more than this. The hundred pounds of grain given to you in the morning will have to be paid back at the end of the year. You also don't have the seeds for spring planting. You also need the field department to lend them to you."
Zheng Lanying felt particularly embarrassed when Feng Baoshan said this. She also felt that it was not as simple as she imagined.
"Director Feng, the field department must help me. It will take several months for enlightenment to come, and I also have to live."
"But this way you owe too much."
"Director Feng, please believe me. I will definitely be able to pay it off within two years."
Feng Baoshan smiled, "I'm really not worried. All your procedures are here. It's up to you not to be caught if you run away. If you are caught, you will know what is waiting for you."
Zheng Lanying, don't be so scared that your face turns pale. It's really scary.
"Director Feng believes in me. I will never do that. I will definitely work hard and repay the club's money as early as possible."
"Hmm. If the third year is less than two years, the money will be increased. That is, for one more year, you will get an extra fifty yuan. Even if you only owe five yuan, it is still fifty yuan.
Of course, I won’t lend it to you if it’s too much.”
Ma Changshun regretted in his heart, why did he take over such a job? He was deceived by her saying that he could write well.
"Comrade Zheng, please come over in the afternoon. Accountant Zhang has gone home to have dinner."
Ma Changshun felt even more depressed. He still had to take care of the food.
So Zheng Lanying ate at Ma's house at noon. She was really hungry, so she ate more.
Now Ma Dongmei was dissatisfied. She originally thought she could take advantage, but she didn't expect that she was a poor person and was eating at home. She was not polite or embarrassed at all and ate so much.
Ma Changshun snorted, but Ma Dongmei didn't say anything unpleasant.
Ma Changshun felt so uncomfortable. This girl was so ruined that she couldn't get married, and she always felt that she was superior to others.
After lunch, Zheng Lanying ignored Ma Dongmei's expression and thought of following her, then lay down on Ma's kang and rested for a while.
In the afternoon, Ma Changshun took Zheng Lanying to the field department again. After struggling outside several times in such a cold day, how could it be as comfortable as lying down at home?
I have saved Lao Chen. Otherwise, he would be in trouble now.
When she arrived at the field office, Su Yuanyuan wrote an IOU, clearly stating what she was borrowing, how much it was, and when she would pay it back. She signed and fingerprinted it.
Only then did someone take Su Yuanyuan to pick up the things. The car was filled with what she borrowed, and of course there were three hundred kilograms of cornmeal. But the price was really high, costing thirty cents a kilogram.
Just for the food, it costs a hundred yuan, and the donkey, cart, and supplies cost two hundred and thirty yuan.
Not counting the seeds planted in the spring, there are already three hundred and two.
Zheng Lanying didn't take this little money seriously, it was not much. She thought she could earn it back in one year.
Ma Changshun had to take care of two donkey carts on the road. There was nothing he could do about it. This girl from the countryside couldn't do anything.
In this way, Ma Changshun felt that there must be something wrong with this lesbian.
After arriving home, he still had to put a big pot on Zheng Lanying's plate and see if the chimney could smoke normally.
He had to use his own firewood, and Zheng Lanying borrowed the fodder for the donkey from the Ma family.
Because she was decorating her own home, she was very careful. But the things were here, and she was helpless.
She kept the fire going until night and filled the big pot with water twice. This way the room became warmer.
