Finally, when the day of separation came, Mother Li couldn't stop crying: "Son, when will you come back now that you are gone?"
Li Bing smiled bitterly, he had saved up several years of vacation to come back once, and when he came back again, it would be several years later.
"Mom, I feel relieved to have my younger brother and sister-in-law at home, and my younger brother and sister-in-law are already glorious people's teachers. When school starts, you and Li Le can go live in the county together."
Li's mother was hesitant. If Li Le wanted to go to school, she would definitely follow Cheng Qiao to live in the county. Not to mention Li Huan, he would be there wherever Cheng Qiao was, but she would also follow. Whoever came to see the house would do the planting.
Earth.
"Mom, we don't need work points. When the food is distributed at the end of the year, we can buy work points."
Cheng Qiao also said with a smile, but Li's mother still shook her head and refused. The family's house had just been built, and she was worried if there was no one to look after it.
Li Le was also reluctant to leave her mother, saying that she could go home every day because there was collective labor in the morning and classes in the afternoon, so she had plenty of time.
Moreover, Wang Xianghua from Aunt Wang’s family also wants to go to school with her, so it’s not necessarily necessary for her to live in her own home in the county.
Cheng Qiao didn't insist. Everyone has their own ideas. There was no need for her to force others. As for her, if Li Huan was willing to pick him up every day, she could go home.
Li Huan went to Uncle Niu's house to borrow an ox cart and put the large and small bags on the ox cart. Li Bing saw that when he came, he only had two large luggage bags, but when he came back, he had three more bags.
"Mom, brother, sister-in-law, there are too many, you can keep them for yourself."
"No, there is food at home. By the way, brother, I forgot to give this to you. Just take it."
Li Huan returned to the house, took out the cigarettes and wine that Cheng Qiao had given him, put them in a net bag, and stuffed them into Li Bing's arms. When Li Bing saw that they were cigarettes and wine, his eyes lit up.
His leadership is just like this, but in Gansu, there is a shortage of supplies. As soon as this kind of cigarettes and alcohol are put on the counter of the supply and marketing cooperative, they are guaranteed to be sold out within a minute.
"Thank you brother, thank you brothers and sisters, this is really a good thing."
Li Huan glanced at Cheng Qiao, and the two of them looked at each other and smiled. Li Bing suddenly thought of something and said a few words in Li Huan's ear. Li Huan couldn't help but nod.
It turns out that Li Bing wanted to find out which Gadari Cheng Qiao's father had been taken to. If it was within his ability, he must make people's lives more comfortable.
Of course Cheng Qiao also heard what Li Bing said, and she became excited. If her eldest brother could take care of her father, she would definitely not be stingy in terms of supplies.
The oxcart slowly walked towards the entrance of the village. Li's mother took Li Bing's left hand, and Li Le took Li Bing's right hand. None of the three said a word. They always felt that they had thousands of words in their hearts but didn't know how to speak.
"Li Bing, are you leaving today?"
At the entrance of the village, the auntie stood waiting for them at the entrance of the village, holding a cloth bag wrapped in floral cloth. Li Bing sighed, jumped off the ox cart, and signaled Li Huan to continue driving the ox cart. He soon
Can catch up.
With red eyes, Auntie Auntie stuffed the package into Li Bing's arms and said with a choked sob: "This is a scarf I knitted for her. Please treat her well."
Li Bing took the scarf silently. If it weren't for Aunt Ya, he would have forgotten about Miao Qing. It seemed that he still needed to talk to Miao Qing again.
The ox cart arrived at the entrance of the state-owned hotel. Cheng Qiao took Li Mu and Li Le in to order food. Li Huan sat on the ox cart and looked at the luggage, while Li Bing went to the guest house to pick up Miao Qing.
When Miao Qing appeared, she had lost a lot of weight. Li Bing had just told her clearly that if she must follow him, she must accept the test of the organization, and basically no woman can pass this test.
As for the test, Li Bing also told Miao Qing that he was going to plant trees in a windbreak forest in Gansu, where the sky was full of wind and sand. It was a very arduous job that even a man could not bear.
But Miao Qing insisted on going without hesitation. Compared with the hard work, she would eventually succeed one day, but if she went back and was sold to an old bachelor by her parents, she would definitely die.
Now that he was leaving, Li Bing didn't treat Miao Qing harshly. They all sat down to have a meal together. Miao Qing saw Cheng Qiao's rosy face and slightly bulging belly, and secretly sighed that Chen Chunhua was not lucky.
"Cheng Qiao, do you know that Chen Chunhua has been sentenced to death?"
Cheng Qiao was stunned for a moment. She really didn't know that in Xiangyang Village, a remote village, as long as she stayed behind closed doors, no news would reach her ears.
Cheng Qiao glanced at Li Huan on the ox cart. This guy must know, but in order not to worry himself, he still hid it.
"When will it be executed?"
"In the past two days, they have said that she is a rat excrement in the ranks of the revolutionary class, spoiling the whole pot of porridge, and that she is a spy who actually drugged people in order to seduce revolutionary comrades, and then brutally killed them
To the revolutionary comrades."
Cheng Qiao looked at Miao Qing dumbfounded. He could still convict him like this. This...
"What about Chunhua and her husband's family?"
Li's mother also heard that she was shocked. No wonder Chunhua wanted to kill her daughter-in-law. It turned out to be a spy. If Chunhua was a spy, then what about Chen Weimin, and the village chief was also her uncle.
When Miao Qing heard Li's mother ask her, her eyebrows curled up with joy. Her mother-in-law finally spoke to her and quickly replied: "Butcher Wang stole national property and speculated. He has a large number and will be shot. As for Butcher Wang's
Mom, I can’t seem to find her.”
I can't find it. What does this mean? Li Bing glanced at Li's mother, silently put down his rice bowl, then took out his handkerchief and wiped his mouth:
"Mom, brothers and sisters, I've finished eating. I'll let Li Huan eat."
Miao Qing hurriedly took a few mouthfuls of rice and picked out a few pieces of braised pork to eat. She was very hungry during this period. Fortunately, she had money stolen from home in her pocket. Otherwise, she really doesn't know if she would still be alive today.
.
"Brother Li Bing, what is this?"
Miao Qing asked strangely when she saw Li Bing handing her a package.
"Your mother gave it to you."
Hearing that it was given to him by his mother, Miao Qing sneered, opened the package and saw that it was a bright red scarf. He liked it and quickly put it on his neck. His whole body seemed to feel a lot warmer.
"My mother still thinks about me."
Li Bing didn't say anything. He had a very bad impression of Dung Qiu and Da Ya, especially when he heard Dung Qiu pushed his mother down. If his younger brother hadn't taken action, he would have definitely taken action.
"I'll ask you one last time, do you regret it?"
"I have no regrets, Brother Li Bing. Even if I die there, I won't want to stay."
Cheng Qiao put the leftovers in the lunch box to take back. He took out the lunch box and ordered two dumplings. The eldest brother had been on the train for several days and always needed something to eat and drink.
The ox cart slowly walked towards the station again. Li Huan and Li Bing got on the cart carrying large and small bags. Miao Qing quickly followed and found a seat by the window to wave goodbye to Li's mother.
