The 1970s Educated Youth

Chapter 52

◎Feeling poor and sour◎

Sending Gu Heting away, Gu Wanning was unhappy.

Cheng Yanzhou was relieved again and comforted Gu Guanning: "You really want to see your second brother. I will take you to Ice City when the team has a holiday."

Gu Guanning shook his head, "Forget it, it's too troublesome."

"He said it would be a while. Come and see me."

Something flashed through his mind but he couldn't catch it. Cheng Yanzhou asked: "Do you want to call your aunt?"

This is still necessary, and you can't go back empty-handed when you come to the county. What is missing at home? Everything has to be arranged.

This time it was Zhou Ruizhu who answered the phone. The two sisters chatted briefly before hanging up.

"I have accumulated a lot of mountain goods sent by neighbors at home. Let's sort them out and send them to my aunt some other time." Cheng Yanzhou said.

When Gu Guanning told the other end, Zhou Ruizhu was surprised, "Farm products? All kinds of things?"

Gu Guanning relayed Cheng Yanzhou's words, "It's just dried mushrooms, pecans, pine nuts, hazelnuts and chestnuts."

"Then ask him to send it. I want as much as I want." After a pause, Zhou Ruizhu asked in a low voice: "Do you have any ginseng? I heard that it is easier to get it in the three northern provinces."

Gu Guanning replied: "No, although the brigade I am in does not have it. The sponsors, but members are not allowed to cut it casually."

"Oh, that's right. It's probably only available in pharmacies in big cities." Zhou Ruizhu said, "It's my grandpa's 70th birthday soon, and my parents are also planning to go, Ruihua and I are looking for something sincere."

Gu Guanning thought for a while and said, "My second brother has returned to Bingcheng's camp. He will call his aunt when he gets there. Why don't you ask him, Bingcheng. There may be some in the drugstore."

Zhou Ruizhu wrote down, "Okay, I'll ask Brother Heting another day."

After a few more words, Gu Wanning hung up the phone and went to the supply and marketing cooperative and the state-owned hotel with Cheng Yanzhou.

After ordering the food and waiting for it to be served, Cheng Yanzhou went to the toilet behind him, and when he came back, his pocket seemed to be bulging with something.

Gu Guanning's eyes followed him curiously.

Cheng Yanzhou smiled and said, "What are you looking at?"

Pointing to his pocket, Gu Wanning asked, "What is that?"

It was dinner time, and there were too many people in the restaurant, and there were many people with mixed eyes. Cheng Yanzhou whispered: "Good stuff. I'll show you when I get back."

Gu Guanning puffed up her cheeks, she wanted to know now.

"Eat first." Cheng Yanzhou raised his hand to block her sight, "I'll make something delicious for you when I get back."

"Is it food?" Gu Guanning's eyes lit up.

But when I think about it again, it's just such a little bit of food. Is it enough to make two bites? Suddenly I wasn't that interested anymore.

But Gu Guanning still ate very quickly, finishing before Cheng Yanzhou.

After finishing the steamed buns in a few mouthfuls, Cheng Yanzhou took out his lunch box, put the uneaten ones in and took them home.
