Chapter 26


Li Yufeng got up early in the morning, she rubbed her eyes and got up from the bed, only to see Chen Zhaodi enter with a small handkerchief.


He took a closer look, wasn't this the handkerchief that Chen Duan asked to give to Zhao Guodong yesterday? This was the first time he had done a give and take thing personally, could it be that he was reported and exposed?


Li Yufeng immediately sat up from the bed, so frightened that she lost all her drowsiness.


"Yufeng, is this your handkerchief? Why are you hanging this sugar bag on the clothes rail near the door?"


Chen Zhaodi did not know what was happening, but Wang Aihua saw this bag hanging on the clothes rail when he woke up early. In the morning Things, the whole family was his brother-in-law, he said, there was a jar of sugar on the bedside table, and this handkerchief was Li Yufeng's first glance.


Although he was a little dissatisfied with the way the family indulged his sister-in-law, he did not dare to hide these things personally, and obediently handed them over to Chen Zhaodi.


So, Chen Zhaodi brought this thing to Li Yufeng.


Li Yufeng was still in a daze, but seeing that there was no anger on Chen Zhaodi's face, she woke up a little and said, "This is mine. I picked it up with the commune in my army bag yesterday, but I accidentally dropped it." that's." Now?"


He was usually not a child who liked to lie, but this time he had to lie, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.


"Maybe you dropped it. Someone picked it up on a clothes rail hanging outside. " Chen Zhaodi didn't think too much about it. Li Yufeng was usually a little forgetful., Picked up by the children, it would really make people happy, "You won't be too careless in the future, you are such a big person ... Is the meat ticket I gave you yesterday still there?" "Yes!" Li Yufeng's


Get up from the bed, grab the items that Chen Zhaodi handed over, hand over the meat ticket that was in the drawer yesterday and say, "Mom, look, I've saved it all! " Seeing the items were properly stored, Chen Zhaodi came out, and when she reached door , she turned to Li Yufeng and said, "I made you noodles with bone broth, I made you noodles, get up and eat!"


Li Yufeng nodded, she sat down and took a comb to comb her hair, and looked at the bag of candy on the table.


It didn't seem to move at all, passed as before, and was sent back as before?


... Is he stupid? Do you want to return such a small item? Li Yufeng's stomach hurt from anger!


But when he felt that this kind of pain was a bit unusual, his lower body had already started to tremble.


Li Yufeng sat in the kitchen with a disheveled, slightly lethargic face. The three men from the Li family had already left the house, Li Sanhu drove the tractor in the morning and went to the production team next door to pull back the threshing machine. In the last two years, threshing still rely on human power, now there are machines can be faster, but the machines are not much, and every production team has to take turns, their turn today.


After the wheat is harvested, it must be immediately ground and peeled, then transported to the commune grain purchasing station.At the end of the month, the production team can distribute dividends for the first half of the year.


Chen Zhaodi looked at Li Yufeng lethargic, calculated her menstrual period, and guessed it right, "You should stay at home and rest today, the threshing machine will be pulled back later, and the threshing machine will be pulled back later, there's a lot of work in the sun-drying fields, you can't help if you go, I'm busy, and I'm covered in ashes."


Although Li Yufeng had never seen threshing in the countryside, she was watching TV when she was a child, and she also knew that when the collective work was done.finished, the dust of the wheat stalks was everywhere, she said, and warehouses are definitely the hardest hit area right now. He was eating a thick and tender large bone soup noodle, but he felt a little uncomfortable.Obviously, Zhao Tiedan had already caught a cricket for him, so he should also have it in his heart? Why didn't he even receive some candy? Was he determined to draw a line with himself? Or do you think that you are a saint of love, and you would rather the world drop it than it should? Thinking of this, Li Yufeng felt sad, with a hint of a sad expression on her face. ... Zhao Guodong woke up early, feeling that he was full of energy. Today the production team started threshing the wheat, and most of the people had to gather in the drying place, but there was something else he had to do.


Sun-dried radishes have collectively been transported to oil mills to make room for wheat. In the next half month, he would follow veteran Chen Yongfa in the oil workshop to make mustard seed oil. The traditional way to extract this oil is a physical endeavor that requires young, strong people like them.


Zhao Guodong followed Chen Yongfa to extract the oil for the first time last year, and he got his real biography. In addition to calculating the points of daily work, the production team also provided extra food to the oil extractor members. Because the work is physical, a lot of oil and water, therefore, although some young people find it difficult to improve their food, most of them still want to fight for this work.


But Li Guoji was the one who knew how to give the task in a reasonable manner. The educated youths of the city would definitely not be able to do things like oil extraction. Hit the rapeseed and extract the vegetable oil.


So then... Although the food in the oil workshop was delicious, those learned youths could only watch.


The weather was getting hotter and hotter, so Zhao Guodong put on a deep shirt and yellowed vest, and went to the oil workshop.


The oil workshop was at the foot of the mountain behind Chen's house, just past the path in front of Li Yufeng's house. He suddenly recalled about the candy in the middle of the night last night, and felt that he could not share Li Yufeng's ration, either, so she sneaked into Li's house in the middle of the night and hung a bag of candy on their clothesline. Now that I returned early in the morning, there was an indescribable sense of familiarity.


Even though the candy is gone, my heart is sweet, and I'm happier than eating the candy myself.


He walked slowly, wondering if he would meet her at the door? He should have been awake by this time Although everyone knew about Li Yufeng's laziness in the production team, he wouldn't sleep until the sun shone on his ass and didn't wake up?


Li Yufeng did not expect to meet Zhao Guodong today, her aunt suddenly turned her into a salted fish, she lay on the bed for a while, drying your clothes.


In this era, it is still popular to wear thick cotton clothes that are hard like sticks after squeezing. Li Yufeng took off her clothes one by one and dried them dry on the clothes rail.Through the gap between the clothes, she saw Zhao Guodong walking to this side.


Um? Does he seem to be in a good mood?


Could it be that he could not help but smile because he had drawn a clear line with himself?


Seeing the person getting closer, Li Yufeng put down her clothes and walked to the back door of her main room.


Zhao Guodong did not see Li Yufeng, his clothes blocked his figure, and when he got close, the person deliberately hid again, so he could not see her anymore.


Feeling lost in his heart, he really wanted to see her, and he had no idea what he was doing with his hair today? She looks very pretty in braids, although ponytails are also pretty, but the feeling of hair hitting one's face ... Nonexistent


the signs of him at the door, Zhao Guodong did not dare to stop, but inevitably slipped a few glances, then lowered his head, a little dejected and continued walking forward.


Li Yufeng, who was hiding in the main hall, did not see Zhao Guodong's expression, but only saw her unstoppable footsteps through the door slit, and the anger in her heart surged, stepping past the doorway, stepping past the doorway, and rushed out of the main hall, saying: "Zhao Tiedan, stop!"


He said a word, feeling a little embarrassed on his face. He clearly knew his name, and he deliberately called him Tiedan ...


Zhao Guodong was stunned for a moment, and when he turned his head, he saw Li Yufeng standing on the small concrete floor in front of his house.


Each household on the production team had their own land, and they also harvested wheat and rice, which were dried on their own doorstep. But most families cannot afford to build concrete floors.This small piece of concrete floor in the Li family is the only one for the entire production team.


He looked at Li Yufeng, and saw that he looked haggard, as if he was not as gentle as yesterday, but there was no anger on his face.


Zhao Guodong stopped his steps, slightly worried in his heart, well-behaved, why was he angry again?


"You... What's up?" Seeing Li Yufeng not speaking, and embarrassed to stare like this, Zhao Guodong just spoke first.


“What do you think is wrong with me?” Li Yufeng looked at her simple and honest appearance, and wondered in her heart, how could she become the richest person in the future with her appearance?


"..."


Zhao Guodong's brows stiffened even more. He had absolutely no idea what made Li Yufeng angry, but looking at it like that, it was as if he wanted to eat people. How could he have such a temperament ?


He wanted to ask another question with good intentions, but unexpectedly, Li Yufeng turned around and ran into the house, he saw her walking towards him with a bag of candy he sent last night, stretching his body.it was in front of him and asked: "Did you send this stuff back last night?"


"Yes ..." What did Zhao Guodong think this was for? It turned out that it was because of this, and before he could explain why he had brought the candy back, Li Yufeng raised her hand, and the candy in the handkerchief smashed into his face with a clanking sound, Li Yufeng said, and fell onto the concrete floor underneath.


"Waste it if you don't want to eat it, why should you send it back? Do I, Li Yufeng, look rushed?" Li Yufeng felt sad, and tears could not resist falling. He turned his head and muttered: "I don't care about you ..."


Zhao Guodong was completely dumbfounded now ... Li Yufengs sad appearance made her worry, she stood in front of him gloomily, glancing at him I sprinkled innocent candy all over the floor, crouched down after thinking about it, and picked it up one by one.


“Do not take it!”


Li Yufeng was furious, seeing Zhao Guodong pick up the candy, he kicked it without thinking, but before he put his foot down, a strong hand gripped his ankle.


The man raised his head, there was no anger in his dark eyes, but there seemed to be a blazing flame, he frowned and looked at him, and said after holding back a while: "If you have a bad temper, if you still want to be my partner, believe it or not, I'll teach you a lesson." you?"
