A Time Travel Effort in the 70s

Chapter 117 Liu Hui repeatedly persuades Shen Jiaren

Shen Jiaren looked at the thirteen glass bottles of various sizes placed on the table. Not to mention that glass in this era is a delicate thing, it is also difficult to move these things from the village and ensure that they are intact.

Shen Jiaren picked up the bottles one by one to see what was inside them. She saw pickles, pickled vegetables, various sauces, and even meat could be vaguely seen in some of the sauces.

"Brother, you brought so much. I still have the sauce you made last time at home that I haven't finished yet. How can I finish it if you bring so much?"

"I know you didn't finish it. When you checked if anything was missing from the yard that day, I saw that the bottle was still full."

"Then why did you come here with so much? And we can't cook noodles here, we can only eat steamed buns with it. How long will I have to eat mine?"

Shen Jiaren stared at the bottles and suddenly felt wronged. There were so many things. How long would I have to stay here? Shen Jiaren's eyes were full of tears, especially the tears that were about to fall.

Shen Jiaren looked at Liu Hui and asked, "Brother, you said that I can go back in ten days or half a month. You are not lying to me, right? You just want me to stay here peacefully?

The things you brought here are not something that can be eaten in ten days or half a month, right?"

Liu Hui looked at Shen Jiaren's eyes becoming more and more watery, and her tone becoming more and more aggrieved, and couldn't help but laugh out loud, "No. Although the time is uncertain, it will definitely not be long. Although I can't say the details, it is definitely not as long as you think.

You can eat all of these if you can, but if you can't, you still have someone you know in town, so you can give them to her."

Shen Jiaren was confused after hearing this. "Brother, are you kidding? Are you giving it to others to eat?"

In this day and age, when you can't even get enough to eat yourself, why do you give food to others? You can say that pickles and pickled vegetables are fine, after all, there is only salt in them, but some bottles are pickled with oil, and some even have meat in them.

Especially since I had been to Liu Hui's house for dinner, they really weren't a wealthy family, and they might have just filled their stomachs.

Now, Liu Hui asked me to take these things and give them away? Are you kidding me? I don't even have anything to eat, and I want to give them away? ?

Liu Hui saw Shen Jiaren staring at him with a questioning expression on her face, and he didn't feel like saying anything. Instead, he kept fiddling with the things he brought from home, placing them on the table and arranging them.

Shen Jiaren looked at Liu Hui's constant small movements and remembered a saying: when people are embarrassed, they always make small movements. Not knowing what Liu Hui was embarrassed about now, Shen Jiaren was too embarrassed to ask further, so she changed the subject.

"You gave me the things, so does that mean I have full control over them?"

"Well, yes, it's given to you. How you use it is up to you."

Shen Jiaren looked at these things, wondering if they could be sold or if anyone would buy them. If someone did, this would be a way to get rich. Who knows, Liu Hui's family might even change because of this.

Shen Jiaren watched Liu Hui fiddling with the bottles and cans and couldn't help asking, "Have you eaten yet? Do you want to go out for dinner together?"

"No need, I still have to rush back, and I just came here to give you something."

"Ah? Then I'll treat you to a meal on your way back. The main dish served at the state-owned restaurant is delicious. Let's go see what dish they're serving today and eat together."

"No, I really need to go back."

"Okay, wait a minute, do you have the key to my yard?"

"Yes, you gave it to me in the hospital that day. You were afraid that your dog would starve to death, so you gave me the key and asked me to take the dog away."

"Um. I don't want the key. I'm just going to be away from home soon. You can take back the food you made for me last time, as well as the vegetables and meat in my warehouse. Don't let them go bad.

Don't say you don't need it, take it all away. When I go back, if I want to eat your dishes again, I will ask you to make them again."

"All? All to me? Don't even mention the dishes I cooked for you last time. Just think of the vegetables and meat in your west room. There are still quite a lot of them. I think there are both salted and fresh meat.

These things can be stored. You can eat them when you go back."

"No, you can take them back and eat them. You have to stay here for so long and no one is home. What will you do with those things?"

"Okay, do you have any other requests?"

"It's best to collect the pine cones and dried mushrooms that are drying in my yard and stop drying them. I'll take them to your house and you or Aunt Aihua or Goudan Erya can eat them.

Um, and also, when you take those things, you'd better take time out to do it, try to concentrate your time in one period of time, don't go back and forth, I'm afraid that people in the village will see and gossip about it."

"You don't have to worry about that. I always go there at night when no one is around."

"Forget it, just try to solve it in one go, don't go back and forth, don't go back and forth.

I'm not afraid of thieves stealing, I'm afraid of thieves thinking about it. Aunt Zhou from the village used to keep an eye on my yard. It would be bad if she keeps staring at me and spreads other rumors."

"Okay, I'll try to solve it in one go.

Do you have any questions, or is there anything else I can help you with?"

"I want to know how Aunt Zhou's son is doing?"

When Liu Hui heard this, he showed a relieved expression. He finally came. "It's nothing serious, just a lot of bleeding. He is still in the hospital. The police comrades are accompanying him in the hospital."

"What about the others? What about your accomplices? When you came here, you said you were with the police officers on a stakeout. What were you on a stakeout for?

Also, didn’t you say at that time that you came to the town’s Public Security Bureau under the pretext of studying? Are you and the militia captain still taking turns coming here?

Can Chen Jiaojiao get some of her money back?

The last question is, when can I go back? "

Liu Hui listened to Shen Jiaren constantly asking questions, just wanting to know the current outcome of the theft incident, but due to the current situation, he couldn't say much, so he answered, "Whether Chen Jiaojiao's money can be returned depends on the subsequent outcome of the incident. No one knows now, and it is impossible to be sure whether Chen Jiaojiao's money can be returned.

I have something to tell you. Chen Jiaojiao's reputation in the village has not been very good recently. It's best for you to stay away from her when you go back this time, so as not to bring trouble upon yourself.

There have been several disturbances in the educated youth center recently. The team leader has been running back and forth regarding the center's affairs, which has made him very annoyed.

Also, Liu Weijun from the educated youth camp is not a good guy either. You should be careful when you go back this time.

Also, regarding the teacher examination that I told you about, have you heard any news in town recently?

It has been changed to a public examination. Do you have any ideas?"

"Ah, what happened to Chen Jiaojiao? Chen Jiaojiao still has money. Although she can't be as carefree as before, she shouldn't be living a miserable life. So what happened to her?

And the quarrel at the educated youth point also made the team leader very annoyed?

Why is the captain so upset? What happened at the Youth League Center?

What could make the captain so upset?

Are they quarreling? Why are the educated youth quarreling? ? Are there any gossips? ?

Also, what happened to Liu Weijun? Why is he not a good person?

Why did you suddenly ask these two people to leave their original place?

What on earth happened to them?

However, I still have no idea about the public examination. Although it has been changed to a public examination, the class location has become a drawing of lots. Who knows where I will be able to draw at that time?

I like our team very much, and I don’t want to move to another place.”

"Teachers don't have to move to other places. Although it is stipulated that they will be selected by drawing lots, many people will switch places privately. For example, if you are selected in my village and I am selected in your village, we can just switch places privately. The leaders won't care too much."

"I really don't want to go. I don't have any intention of going at all. Why do you always want me to go?

What's so good about being a teacher? Didn't I clearly reject your proposal?

I don't need it, I don't like it.

Why do you bring it up again?"

"Teachers are subsidized and don't have to work in the village on weekdays. They only participate in spring planting and autumn harvest. They usually teach."

"I said, I don't like it, and I have my own allowance, this salary is enough to support myself, why should I give myself more trouble?

As for the farm work you mentioned, I have discussed it with the team leader. As long as I don’t want work points and don’t participate in the various welfare dividends in the village, then it doesn’t matter whether I do farm work or not.”

"The main thing is that as long as you become a teacher, you will be supported by the government, with salary, subsidies and benefits. You don't need to dig for food in the fields like us farmers."

"What happened to the farmers? What happened to digging for food in the fields?

Chairman Mao said that we should build a new countryside and become new farmers.

If it was not for the purpose of building a new countryside, how could the movement of going to the countryside to work and study have emerged?

Even if we take a step back, without farmers, where would the food, drink and daily necessities of the so-called urban residents come from?

"It's not that farmers are bad, but if you have a choice, choose what is better for you and more beneficial to you. Isn't that a better choice?"

"You said this choice is better for me, more beneficial to me, that's what you think, not what I think.

Why are you forcing your ideas on me?"

"This is not imposition, this is communication. We are chatting about this matter."

"Really? If this is a chat, then I will tell you clearly that I don't want to do this. I have my own ideas and plans. I don't like this teaching position, nor do I need it. Whoever wants it can go. Anyway, I won't go. I have my own things to do.

Also, here's five dollars as a thank you for the vegetables and pickles you brought today."

After saying that, Shen Jiaren took out five dollars from her bag on the bedside table and handed it to Liu Hui.

As Shen Jiaren handed over the money, she said to Liu Hui,

"By the way, after you take everything away, remember to return my keys to me."
