My 1978 Hotel

Chapter 66: A towel stirs up the boiling passion between Han Jiaba and Wu An’s love article
"This story seems familiar?"

Li Feng looked through the story of Forget-me-not and the more he read it, the more familiar it became. It was adapted from the life experiences of Daya and Xiaoya. That's right, the educated youth abandoned their rural wives and children and had no news of them after returning to the city.

"Scars, this article is interesting too."

The system actually opened up both articles. Was it planning to give it directly to Scar next time? Scar's article also contained content related to the educated youth, but it had a touch of the later self-media atmosphere. "I'm afraid this isn't a serious writer."

The article is a bit melodramatic. Your mother is dead, and you have a hole in your brain or something, yet you still act so high-profile. This is not deliberately changed, just like some movies always need to sublimate the theme. It's just that the readers are so embarrassed that they can deduct five bedrooms and three living rooms.

Fortunately, I chose forget-me-nots. Although this article is a bit too positive, it is still acceptable and is related to the experiences of Daya and Erya, so the writing is more story-like.

After reading the articles on both sides, Li Feng did not copy them immediately but got busy with other things.

"First, make up for the missed shooting time."

I don't know what's wrong with the system. It's been working incredibly well lately. I can even claim quest rewards early and then make up for them later. Isn't that weird? Li Feng didn't really think about it, but he probably figured it out. The system has discovered some loopholes and is currently fixing them.

After practicing with thousands of bullets in the simulation space, Li Feng came out of the simulation space and looked at the time. It was almost six o'clock.

In the yard, people were shouting "sister-in-law" and "Antun". Anchun was still busy. She was too honest.

"Shout to sister-in-law, Antun, Anchun, stop working."

Li Feng said with a smile, "You've been busy all day, so go home quickly and come back tomorrow."

"It's not dark yet."

Wow, they plan to work until dark. It's almost dark at 7:30 in the summer. These three people are too honest. They came at 6 o'clock in the morning and had basically no rest except for eating lunch for half an hour at noon.

"That won't do. If Uncle Fuguo sees this, he'll call me Zhou Baopi." Li Feng waved his hands repeatedly. What a joke! He is not a black-hearted boss. Twelve hours a day is enough. He would feel embarrassed if he worked more than that.

"Shout out sister-in-law, Anchun, Anton, let's stop here today."

"That's it."

The three of them looked at each other and saw that Li Feng was sincere. They helped to pack up and were about to go back when Li Feng called out, "Sister-in-law, why are you leaving without taking your things?"

"How can this be so embarrassing?"

Seeing that they were the towels, soap and shampoo that Li Feng promised, they felt embarrassed to accept them.

"Hurry up and take it. It's a good time to wash it before going back."

"to make."

They didn't say anything to express their gratitude, but instead thought to themselves that they would work harder and do more to show their gratitude. After leaving Li Feng's yard, they wrapped the soap and shampoo in a towel and hid it away to avoid being seen or criticized, which would have made Uncle Fuguo feel awkward.

The adults just thought so, but the kids couldn't hide it, especially since some of their families were poor in the team. The kids themselves were usually not as well fed and clothed as others, and were often teased by other kids.

Now that we have something good at home, it would be strange if we didn’t show off.

He shouted, "My sister-in-law's son, Ming Hai, washed his hair with shampoo and applied soap. What a sweet guy!" "Grandma, Mom, I'm going out to play." This guy ran out the door without even eating a few bites of dinner.

"Mingfu, let's play together."

"No."

Han Mingfu curled his lips and disdained to play with Minghai. His grandmother said that Minghai's family was so poor that they only had fleas left, and if he played with him, others would look down on him.

"Hey, Minghai, you smell so good."

Mingqun muttered, and the other kids came forward. The kids from Antun and Anchun's families also started talking, each one quite proud. "I know, Minghai must have used soap."

"Soap?"

A group of little kids started asking questions, and these proud kids could no longer hide the truth, and soon everyone knew it.

Minghai and Mingyue's parents went to Uncle Li Feng's house to work and got soap, shampoo and new floral towels.

This made a group of little kids extremely envious. The fragrant soap and the shampoo with a floral scent that could produce lots of bubbles were things these little kids had never seen before. Not to mention them, even their parents had only heard of them.

My goodness, once Han Mingfu got home and made a fuss, the whole team knew about it. Han Wangshi cursed and asked why her Angui didn't get such a good thing.

"Third brother, why are you letting people from the outer courtyard enjoy such a good thing?"

"Of course, this good thing doesn't belong to our courtyard. It's cheaper to settle those in the outer courtyard. Your sister-in-law wants to say a few words to you." Several elderly women came to Han Fuguo's house before he finished his meal, and they were talking to each other.

Han Fuguo had no choice. These were his older sisters-in-law and aunts from the previous generation, and they were from his own courtyard. The three generations before him all had the same ancestor.

After finally coaxing the people away, Han Fuguo took a few puffs of his pipe.

"This bastard is always causing trouble for me."

Not only is the salary high, but it also provides meals. If it provides meals, that's fine. You also get fish and meat. How can others find help in the future? Now you are worried that people will get dirty during work, so you give them soap and shampoo, and even worse, they give them floral towels.

Flowered towels are good things. Every family buys two when marrying a new bride. But this guy wanted to give two right away. If I hadn't stopped him, I'm afraid he wouldn't have a peaceful life for the next few days.

Although others didn't say anything, his two wives were secretly saying that next time Li Feng had any work to do, they should ask An Min and An Bing to help.

Tell me, even his own family is like this, not to mention that everyone outside is blamed on this bastard. Tell me, why is he so extravagant?

"Come on Tomita, come in quickly."

"Third brother."

"What's wrong? Someone from your family came to ask you for mercy."

Han Fuguo knew what Han Futian was talking about when he saw his expression. "Of course I am. It really annoys me."

"This is all Li Feng's fault, that bastard." Han Futian lit his pipe and took a few puffs. "My nephews came over before I even finished my meal, and they were bullying me, saying I only favored outsiders when I had good things to do. How come you don't recognize your relatives now that you're a cadre?"

"Alas, my old aunts and sisters-in-law just sent me away."

Han Fuguo smiled wryly and shook his head. "You're all saying the same thing. Just think about what this whole thing is all about. If someone were to have their house renovated this fall or winter, how would they pay them? If they underpaid, they'd definitely be gossiped about."

"Hey, don't tell me how much trouble this brat has caused us."

Li Feng had no idea that the trouble he had caused was just as he was thinking about shooting. There was not much time left before the final mission was completed. "Put it aside for now. The system has already settled the mission reward in advance."

"I should study postpartum care for sows. Otherwise, if experts and farm technicians come to discuss their issues and I don't know anything, who would dare publish the article? They might even suspect I plagiarized it."

Li Feng delivered over fifty sows that night, nearly breaking his own record. "Sows are like this all the time. I don't know how the male OB/GYN doctors handle this. It's so brutal."

"Not to mention that there are really a lot of details in postpartum care for sows. Whether it is the treatment and care of piglets, or the nutrition of sows, each one is a science." Nothing is easy, Li Feng sighed.

"I originally wanted to copy the manuscript after I finished studying."

Forget it, let’s go to bed and talk about the manuscript tomorrow.

The next day, Li Feng felt that he had gotten up early enough, but he never expected that his sister-in-law, An Dun, An Chun and others had come even earlier. For a moment, Li Feng wondered if it was because it was cloudy today and he had gotten up late, so he looked up at his watch.

That's right, half past five. No, that's not right, half past five. This guy came to work at half past five. Whose subordinates are so hardworking? The capitalists would cry when they see them. "Shouting sister-in-law, Anchun, Anton, why are you here so early?"

"It's getting late, the sun is already coming out."

It's not early yet. Well, Li Feng can't chase us away. At most, we can take a longer break at noon. Because of this incident, we need more food at noon, but I'm afraid we won't be able to get meat bones at the commune now. Even if Master Guo likes to smoke, he can't give you meat bones for two consecutive days.

This is really embarrassing. I would feel bad if I don't have some meat for lunch.

"Tu tu tu tu."

"motorcycle?"

It was Wu Shengnan. Now that was good. I almost forgot that my colleague Wu Xiaofeng gave me a meat ticket yesterday. With a motorcycle, it wouldn't take long to get to the commune. It would take at most an hour to go there and back.

"Public Security Officer Wu."

Li Feng was about to call out to Wu Shengnan when she suddenly stopped on her motorcycle. "Pork, take it first."

"What?"

Before Li Feng could figure out what was going on, Wu Shengnan had already arrived at the dam on a three-wheeled motorcycle. "What's going on? Why are they sending pork? This Public Security Officer Wu is acting like a good guy."

"Probably more than a pound."

After weighing it, Li Feng thought it was enough for lunch, so he decided to add more stir-fried pork and order some pork meatball and vegetable soup. Just as Li Feng was busy, Han Fuguo and Han Futian arrived.

"What?"

Li Feng thought to herself that it was no wonder, as he thought Wu Gongan was a good man. It turned out that she had to live with him at home.

"Public Security Officer Wu will be working in our brigade for a few days. You will be responsible for the food during these days. The brigade will provide the food."

"have to."

What else could Li Feng say? Anyway, he had to cook for several sisters-in-law, and more people were not too few. Moreover, they gave him more food, so it was not a loss at all. He could even earn some food. Wu Gongan would also buy meat, so it was quite profitable when he thought about it.

But why exactly was Public Security Officer Wu stationed in the village? This made Li Feng wonder. Perhaps he was still investigating speculation and profiteering? This guy seemed a little guilty. "Don't show it. Let's just do what we need to do."

After the meat was packed, the brigade sent some vegetables and grain. Li Feng estimated that he could earn a third of the grain, which was not bad. After cleaning the kitchen, Li Feng boiled a large pot of water and returned to his room to copy the "Forget-Me-Nots".

He was so engrossed in copying that he didn't notice Wu Shengnan come into the room. Wu Shengnan took a sip of water and walked closer to take a look.

"what?"

While Li Feng was writing an article, Wu Shengnan glanced over. Not to mention the article was quite attractive, they wrote and read it without disturbing each other. Li Feng just waited for more than an hour to write. When he stopped because his wrist was sore, he found that Wu Shengnan was behind him.

"Ah, Public Security Wu."

"excuse me."

"No."

Li Feng stretched his wrist and said with a smile. "I've been writing for a long time, and my wrist is a little sore. Let me stretch it."

"Public Security Wu is done with his work."

"There's some left."

Wu Shengnan was mainly conveying some recent county directives and supervising summer harvest study. It was all about criticizing the forests, criticizing renovation proposals, and promoting production through struggle. "Is your article about the story of the parents of your two children?"

"I guess so, with some artistic processing added."

Li Feng said with a smile. "After all, novels are derived from life and are higher than life."

"I really envy you writers. You can turn your life into words. It's really great."

“The story is really good.”

It’s not Wu Shengnan’s fault that she likes it. The heroine in Forget-Me-Nots really has the spirit of an independent woman.
