Chapter 72 Buying Grain

 In the morning, everyone broke up in a quarrel over the issue of cooking.

The atmosphere in the educated youth area was not good. Wei Lan didn’t eat much in the morning, so she went to work in the fields with sweet potatoes in her arms.

  Before, I always felt that the atmosphere was good, and even though the work was hard, I didn’t hear anyone complaining. Looking back now, Wei Lan couldn’t help but sigh, fearing that now is the beginning, and more contradictory details will slowly come to light in the future.

 “Wei Zhiqing! Wei Zhiqing!”

Wei Lan came to her senses, waved her hands in the water and stood up quickly, "I'm here!"

Aunt Zhang stood on the field ridge with a **** on her shoulder, "I have to go home and make lunch. You can go back after you finish sowing the fields! It's sunny today, so there's no need to rush out in the afternoon. You can finish it at three o'clock. become!"

Wei Lan nodded quickly, "I understand, Auntie, go ahead!"

 After Aunt Zhang left, Wei Lan continued working with the bucket. She was thinking about things in her mind, and she didn't fall behind in her work. From a distance, it looked like that.

 She only has a pound of rice and a large bag of sweet potatoes on hand. When dividing the food last night, she could actually choose potatoes. She didn't want potatoes because they were easy to turn green and sprout.

 She had heartburn after eating too many sweet potatoes, and she couldn't get used to eating whole grains every day, and she couldn't go to town in a short time.

Wei Lan rolled her eyes. She was quite familiar with Gu Chao's family at the commune member's house. Why don't she go to the Gu family after work and ask if they have any surplus grain to sell to her?

Thinking about it, Wei Lan shook her head again. There were three people in Grandma Gu's family, and the only strong labor force was Gu Chao. In other words, Gu Chao had to feed three people including himself, so how could he have any surplus grain to sell to her?

 “What are you thinking about?”

 A faint male voice came to her ears, and Wei Lan subconsciously replied, "Where do you want to buy food? Otherwise, you will starve to death."

 After saying that, she was stunned. She turned around and faced Gu Chao's tough and handsome face. She blinked and said, "Brother Chao, why are you here? Comrade Gu Yang was transferred today and he should not come here to work in the future."

"Yes, I know." Gu Chao naturally took the bucket from her and bent down to spread the ashes. His hands were big and his fingers were slender. He could spread a handful of ashes into three holes, "You don't have to worry about the food. "

"Huh?" Wei Lan followed him sowing bean seeds. Listening to his words, she couldn't help but tilt her head.

“Tomorrow I will go to the supply and marketing cooperative to deliver peaches, and I will bring them back for you.”

Wei Lan's eyes lit up, "Really? Then I'll send you the food stamps later!" After a pause, she added, "I want fine food, okay? It doesn't matter if it's more expensive!"

Gu Chao stood up, met her expectant eyes, and his expression softened a little, "Okay."

“Brother Chao, you are so good!” Wei Lan hugged the bamboo basket and bumped it into his arms. “The educated youth have finished eating the fine grains for a long time. Recently, I eat sweet potatoes every day, and I’m almost going to be a fool!”

Unlike Wei Lan's joy, Gu Chao quickly bent down and continued busy, "Work quickly, and go back to eat when you're done."

 He faced the loess, and his wheat-colored face was a little red.

"Yeah!" Wei Lan nodded and continued to sow bean seeds. After a while, she said, "I won't go back for lunch today. The atmosphere among educated youth is not good."

Gu Chao paused slightly. Wei Lan did not elaborate or ask further questions. He just nodded and said, "Well, then go to my house. Grandma said your clothes are ready."

 After saying this, he turned his head away and his face felt a little hot.

"Really? That's great!" Wei Lan couldn't believe it. When Gu Chao nodded confirmingly, she jumped three feet high and worked as fast as a chicken. She almost waved her little hands. Afterimage.

 “Grandma.”

  "Brother Chao is back? Come and sit down quickly, the food will be on the table soon."
