Chapter 168: This Time It Definitely Won’t Fly Away
When Song Chu openly stated that she wanted to give pork to the children at the farm, she pulled Gu Yue and the others to go to the farm together.
Brigade Leader Wu knew they wanted to talk, so he didn’t accompany them, nor did he allow anyone else to follow.
Walking along a path, with no one else around, Xu Ting asked Song Chu, “Those people living on the farm, what’s their relationship to you?”
He always felt that Song Chu’s proposal to stay behind was entirely for the people on the farm.
But if it were just to help look after relatives, it shouldn’t be possible to go this far.
Song Chu was about to speak, but Gu Yue spoke first, “My dad and my Big Brother were sent down to the farm here. The child who was beaten that day is my nephew.”
“I wasn’t very sure before, so I didn’t tell you.”
“Yesterday I confirmed it after seeing them, and then I didn’t find the time and opportunity to tell you, that’s why it’s been delayed until now,” he explained.
Previously, his cousin had found the farm where they were sent down, but he wasn’t very sure. He came with the greatest hope, and fortunately, it was right.
This matter couldn’t be hidden from Xu Ting and the others. After all, they would be coming along later, and he also needed to take Gu Jin away. It was better to be frank.
Xu Ting and An Dong were very surprised. They quickly connected the dots that they couldn’t understand before. “No wonder you were so concerned about the people on the farm. So that’s how it is.”
However, they felt comfortable that Gu Yue could be honest with them.
Yesterday, the villagers were following them all the time, so it wasn’t convenient to talk.
Xu Ting was a straightforward person towards those he considered friends. “My dad knows people in the county office here. How about I ask him to say something, so that Brigade Leader Wu will take more care of your dad and Big Brother?”
Gu Yue sighed, “It’s no use.”
He didn’t hide it and told them about the Old Village Chief and the others.
Xu Ting and An Dong didn’t expect those people to be so despicable, even driving a Female Educated Youth to death, and bullying others frequently.
Xu Ting was also a smart person. “So, have you decided what to do?”
“You staying behind isn’t just to help Gu Yue take care of his family on the farm, is it?” he asked Song Chu.
Song Chu nodded, “I’m going to fish, to catch all those scumbags in one net.”
Then she explained her plan.
If it weren’t for Song Chu’s display of skill on the mountain before, Xu Ting and An Dong would never have agreed to let her do this.
Two Female Comrades in such a bad village would definitely be bullied to death by those bullies and scumbags.
But now they felt a strange sense of sympathy for those who were about to be dealt with. They felt that not only would the other party not have a good ending, but they might also suffer miserably.
However, they also felt that no matter how miserable the other party was, they deserved it.
“A classmate of my dad’s is a police officer in this county. We’re going back to the county town tomorrow. I’ll tell him to help keep an eye on you,” An Dong said.
Although his heart that wanted to pursue Song Chu was dead, he still admired her very much.
If they couldn’t be a couple, it was good to be friends.
Song Chu smiled and nodded, “That would be great, thank you.”
An Dong smiled and waved his hand, “Don’t mention it.”
He thought to himself, “Such a beautiful girl, why does she have to be so fierce?” His heart was shattered into pieces.
The group entered the farm, and everyone inside was working.
Gu Yue’s Older Brother had a fever yesterday and hadn’t fully recovered today, so after working for a while, he was now taking a rest.
Seeing Gu Yue and the others coming over, he was stunned. He looked behind them and was a little confused to find that no one from the village was following them.
“Why are you here?” he asked.
Song Chu smiled and said, “We’re here to deliver meat to you.”
“Deliver meat?” Gu Yue’s Older Brother was puzzled.
Then he saw Song Lao Si place half a pig’s leg he was carrying on the broken table in the shed.
◈◈◈
“We went up the mountain today and hunted a Large Wild Boar. The whole village shared the meat, so I suggested bringing a piece to you,” Song Chu said truthfully.
Gu Yue’s Older Brother didn’t show any joy at having meat to eat. Instead, he asked worriedly, “Did the villagers give you any trouble?”
It didn’t really matter to them whether they ate meat or not. He was afraid of implicating Song Chu and the others.
Song Chu smiled and replied, “They gossiped a little, but I shut them down.”
“I said I like Xiao Jin, so this pork is for him to eat. The villagers couldn’t refute that since Xiao Jin isn’t a sent-down youth.”
Gu Yue’s Older Brother’s long-frozen heart felt a little warmer. This little girl had really done a lot for their Gu Yue.
It was rare to meet such a good Female Comrade nowadays.
Especially after comparing her to his mother and his Ex-Wife, he thought he must tell his younger brother to treat Xiao Song well in the future.
Xu Ting and An Dong were sensible enough to leave after sitting for a while.
It wasn’t easy for Gu Yue to come here, and they didn’t know when they would meet again, so they gave the Gu family some space to talk.
Gu Yue and Song Chu stayed behind, and they also asked Song Lao Si to get some rice and exchange it with the villagers for some eggs and vegetables to bring over.
Song Chu wasn’t good at cooking, but Gu Yue had learned to cook over the years of living alone, so he rolled up his sleeves and started cooking.
Song Chu helped by the side, and Gu Yue’s Older Brother watched them with a smile in his eyes.
When the food was almost ready, Gu Yue’s Father, Gu Jin, and the others from the farm came back.
Seeing the two bowls of pork, the egg drop soup, the stir-fried cabbage, and the bowls of white rice on the table, everyone was stunned.
Gu Yue’s Father looked at Gu Yue and asked, “What’s going on?”
Gu Yue explained everything and told them to eat without worry, as the villagers wouldn’t come to make trouble.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and had a new understanding of Song Chu’s abilities.
They had dealt with those villagers a lot, and they were really hard to deal with.
While eating, Song Chu also took out a bottle of white liquor from her backpack, which made Gu Yue’s Father and the others very happy, and they liked her even more.
Each person poured a glass of wine. They ate and chatted, as if they had returned to the days before they were sent down. Everyone’s eyes reddened.
They didn’t know when these days would end. The others also missed their families.
But this was also the happiest night they had since they were sent down.
Neither Gu Yue nor Song Chu told them about their original plan, fearing it would scare them.
Gu Jin really liked Gu Yue and Song Chu. During the meal, he sat next to Song Chu. He felt that this Aunt was so warm, and this should be what a mother feels like.
Song Chu also liked Gu Jin very much. She talked to him from time to time and would also give him food.
After dinner, the two sat until it got dark before leaving the farm.
The Old Brigade Leader’s Son and the others had been watching. Seeing that Song Chu wasn’t alone, they were a little disappointed.
The next day, Gu Yue and the others left the village by car. Song Chu and Song Ping stayed behind, ostensibly to inspect the farm and see if it was suitable for a breeding farm poverty alleviation project.
The villagers were naturally happy. If there was poverty alleviation, their lives might be better.
But the happiest were the Old Brigade Leader’s Son and the others.
They had been thinking about Song Chu all along. Hearing that the two Female Comrades were actually staying behind, they were overjoyed.
The duck that was already in their hands definitely wouldn’t fly away now. These city people were really too careless, but that was exactly what they wanted.
