1968: Started from breeding

Chapter 35 How could I not be able to do this? I am very capable!
After Su Wenchen finished speaking, the crowd fell into a brief silence.

The secretary of the commune?
When did such a young female cadre come to the commune? Could this be the one from the capital that Xu Dazui mentioned earlier?
It looks very similar looking at this delicate skin.

However, many people then thought that when their men were building the educated youth camp, it was the other party who was responsible for providing meals.

Immediately, the surroundings were filled with explanations, "Young man Chen, if you hadn't told me earlier, I would have misunderstood Director Jiang."

"Officer Jiang, don't take it to heart! It's all our fault for not keeping our mouths shut. The commune can't just ignore our food!"

"Yeah, building a house is not easy, and you can't fill yourself up by just drinking porridge!"

Jiang Li heard a lot of chatter around her.

Seeing Su Wenchen's suggestive look.

This was her first time facing so many unfamiliar members. Thinking of this, Jiang Li clenched her fists and encouraged herself!
"Don't worry, I won't deliberately withhold the members' food!"

"This time the commune is paying for the construction of the educated youth camp, which is also an opportunity for everyone. After you finish work, some families who have spare money can make adobe bricks. As long as the brigade passes the inspection, we will buy them from everyone at the same price!"

After listening to Jiang Li's words.

The surrounding members widened their eyes.

"Secretary Jiang, are you serious? Can we also sell adobe bricks to the commune?"

"Yeah, if you really give me money, I will go back and call my man right away!"

“But this wouldn’t be against policy!”

"What is this violating? The policy says that private transactions are not allowed. We are selling to the commune! Isn't our brigade's grain all taken away by the commune?"

"That's right. The commune represents the country. We are selling it to the country. It certainly can't be considered speculation!"

Jiang Li also explained, "Don't worry, we are trading with the commune, and we will pay everyone in due time! However, the adobe bricks needed by the educated youth site are limited, and we will not accept more when the quantity is sufficient."

After listening to Jiang Li's words.

Some people around couldn't help themselves.

"Then I'll go first. How many adobe bricks are needed to build a youth settlement? I'll go back and tell my husband to hurry up!"

"Cuihua, you are still smart. I will go back and call my husband. Anyway, I have nothing to do, so I can make some money by making one more adobe brick!"

Soon, the crowd under the tree dispersed completely.

Su Wenchen looked at Jiang Li with some surprise.

"Why are you suddenly saying these things? Is it really not against policy to do this?"

Jiang Li nodded.

"It is indeed not against the policy. Do you really think that the policy from above is so detailed? For example, your brigade now stipulates that you cannot raise five chickens. In fact, the higher authorities have never issued a clear document, and the higher authorities have never restricted the output of rural sideline businesses."

"It's just that the local people have been doing this in recent years to avoid any trouble from capitalism, so they just took a one-size-fits-all approach."

Su Wenchen nodded in understanding.

"I understand. Less trouble is worse than more trouble. Anyway, if the local government takes a one-size-fits-all approach, there will definitely be no problems. But if we let it go, the local government will still be responsible for any problems, right?"

"What I didn't expect was that you were willing to take responsibility for villagers you didn't even know."

Jiang Li shook her head.

"And I don't think as much as you think. After all, this is my first time working here, and only in this way can the members support my work!"

"Besides, as long as the educated youth site can be successfully built, no one will dare to cause trouble to me. If the educated youth site cannot be built, I will not be able to escape the blame for my poor supervision."

"Before I came here, I read the document that the county sent to the commune. It only required the commune to do a good job of receiving the educated youth who went to the countryside."

"As for where you live, the authorities don't care at all. For example, in our county, only the Beiwan and Nanwan communes paid for the construction of educated youth camps."

"I heard that several communes in Xishan didn't care at all and just asked the brigades below to pay. How could the brigades below be willing to pay?"

"So they planned to let the educated youth rent houses directly from members, so that the members could increase their income and the educated youth would have a place to live."

Su Wenchen shook his head.

“It may work in the short term, but it will definitely cause problems in the long term!”

"Let's not talk about anything else. For example, if a female educated youth lives in a member's home and there is a male head of the household, accidents are bound to happen over time."

"If he's an unmarried man, that's even worse. He'll be facing a beautiful educated youth who looks very different from rural women for a long time. Over time, he'll definitely have problems with his brain not being able to control itself."

Jiang Li looked at Su Wenchen suspiciously.

"Well, you're not trying to find an excuse to cover up for yourself in advance, are you?" Su Wenchen's eyes widened.

"What are you talking about? How could I possibly do such a thing?"

Jiang Li said cautiously.

"Didn't you say that? If an unmarried man spends a long time with a beautiful female educated youth who looks very different from a rural woman, it will easily lead to big problems that are out of control?"

"How can you guarantee that you won't do such a thing? Can't you?"

Feeling Jiang Li's strange look, Su Wenchen was so anxious that he jumped up and down. How could he not be able to do it? This was a matter of man's dignity.

"What are you talking about? How could I not be able to do this? I am very capable."

"So you also have problems with not being controlled by your brain?"

Su Wenchen took a deep breath.

"I, Su Wenchen, will never have that kind of problem, absolutely not!"

Then he turned his head and said.

"Humph, I'm angry now and don't want to talk to you anymore!"

Seeing this, Jiang Li showed her little fangs, looking as if she had succeeded in her evil plan.

Humph, this way, you will definitely not dare to have any bad intentions towards me in the future.

However, looking at Su Wenchen's back, she hurriedly chased after him.

"Why are you going back now? Let's chat some more. It's only a little while now and it's not even dark yet, why are you going back now?"

"Tell me about your village!"

"I'll apologize to you, okay?"

"Do you want to feed the chickens? Let me help you feed the chickens!"

The next day.

"Boom boom boom!"

There was a series of knocks on the door.

"Who is it?" Su Wenchen's impatient voice sounded.

He was also a little surprised that his mother no longer knocked on his door in the morning since the family split up.

A crisp sound was heard outside the house.

"Su Wenchen, get up, didn't you say you would cook?"

Su Wenchen yawned.

After getting dressed, I slowly walked out the door and looked at the sky outside. It was just getting light.

Said speechlessly.

"No, it's only what time is it! Why are you getting up so early? It's not the autumn harvest season yet, we have to go to work before dawn!"

"Isn't this the first time I have to arrange my own work? I'm a little excited! What are we having for breakfast?"

What to eat?

Su Wenchen thought for a moment and said, "Let's have egg pancakes! How about I provide the eggs and you provide the flour?"

"Yeah, put more oil in. I brought a lot of oil! And I have oil coupons every month now!"

"Don't worry, there will definitely be enough oil and water!"

the other side

Su's mother listened to the conversation between the two with mixed feelings.

From time to time, I felt relieved that it was not my younger daughter-in-law. Otherwise, if the two of them got together, even a mountain of gold would not be enough to feed them.

This is really not how to live.

Listen to what they say, put more oil in, there are oil coupons every month, can't we save them? Oil is so expensive!

However, since the other party was a commune cadre, she would not say anything more.
