Crossing 70: Fish in the Pond Have Good News

Chapter 464 No Brain

The old Taoist priest came closer to listen, and angrily slapped the man on the head, "You bastard, you deserve to be beaten to death!"

The villagers nearby saw him fighting and quickly stepped forward to support him, "Uncle, please don't get involved. Sit down and rest for a while."

Seeing this, Zhao Chunjiang raised his foot and kicked the man's leg again, "What did you say, you bastard? Speak louder if you dare!"

"Alright, alright, you've vented your anger by fighting. Hurry up and get to work. If you keep fighting the old accountant, he'll be pissed to death and no work points will be given to you later." Another middle-aged man hurriedly grabbed Zhao Chunjiang. This man was the leader of the educated youth point, and if he didn't stop, this matter would not be over.

Zhao Chunjiang was shocked by the man's attitude. He never expected that someone would persuade them in a kind voice. As a result, he was pulled away from the battlefield in the moment he was stunned.

The farce in the field is over.

On the other side, Jiang Yu and Yi Chi also arrived at the commune.

The two first went to the brick factory to inquire about private orders. The salesperson at the brick factory said that they could sell the bricks, but they had to wait for a month. This month's bricks had all been ordered, and some of next month's bricks could be allocated to them.

Yi Chi paid the deposit, and both parties signed the order form and waited for the end of next month to come and deliver the bricks.

After the important matters were resolved, Jiang Yu asked Yi Chi if he wanted to go to the state-owned restaurant for dinner.

"Let's go see if there's any pork for sale first, and then go eat, okay?" Yi Chi wanted to buy some vegetables for Jiang Yu, because she had been out for so long, and the vegetables and meat at home must be gone.

Jiang Yu nodded, "Okay, you can also go to the food cabinet and buy some egg cakes."

"Okay." Yi Chi nodded, then sat on the back seat of Jiang Yu's bicycle.

The commune is still the same as before, only the street of the supply and marketing cooperative is relatively lively. People are either working in factories or busy at home.

After the two of them passed through the factory area, there were gradually more pedestrians on the road. Everyone was carrying a basket of vegetables in their hands. Some were walking in groups of two or three, while others were walking alone in a hurry.

Yi Chi looked at this scene, and for some reason, he felt calmer than ever before. He held Jiang Yu's clothes in his hands, and the clean and beautiful smell of soap on her clothes floated over his nose. He suddenly said, "Jiang Yu."

"Hmm?" Jiang Yu responded.

"Thank you." Thank you for never letting me down, thank you for letting me see the beautiful world, thank you for giving me surprises, thank you for coming to me. Yi Chi was behind Jiang Yu, his eyes like sticky honey, clinging to her tightly.

Jiang Yu had sharp senses, so she could naturally feel the burning gaze behind her, but she accepted it well. She knew that Yi Chi had some psychological problems, and she understood his weirdness, but she still hoped to make Yi Chi less paranoid, or at least have a healthy mentality. "What are you thanking me for?"

"All of them." Yi Chi answered in a bright and clear voice, and seemed very happy.

"Well, then... you're welcome." Jiang Yu said.

Yi Chi smiled.

There were still some ribs and two leg bones in the meat stall, so Jiang Yu took them all. Yi Chi took the bones handed to her by the master and put them into the small basket that Jiang Yu picked up before leaving.

The master took a look at the two of them and said, "The young couple are quite good-looking."

Jiang Yu thanked him with a smile, then pulled Yi Chi, whose ears were red, to go to the supply and marketing cooperative across the street to buy snacks.

During this time, Yi Chi cleared his throat, glanced at Jiang Yu, and repeated what his master had just said, "young couple."

Jiang Yu looked at him with amusement, "Why? Do you think I should explain this to Master?"

Yi Chi immediately stopped smiling and shook his head, "No need."

Jiang Yu rolled his eyes at him and took the lead to step into the supply and marketing cooperative.

The lady at the dim sum counter already knew Jiang Yu and Xue Li, because the two girls were so supportive of her business. She smiled and greeted them, "Girl, I haven't seen you for a long time. Have you been out recently?"

"Yes, I went to visit my relatives." Jiang Yu said, staring at the various foods on the counter. "Sister, I want fried dough twist, egg cake, and half a pound of that hard square cake for me, and half a pound of sesame peanut candy."

The sister skillfully packed the food for the ginger fish, spread the oil paper, put the snacks in, then packed it neatly, and finally tied it with a hemp rope, and the job was done.

Jiang Yu took out the bill and handed it over. After Yi Chi waited for the change to fly over his head, he took the snacks from the counter and put them in the basket.

When the older sister saw this, her eyes lit up, "Oh, this is my boyfriend? He's really good-looking, just a little dark, but it doesn't matter if a man is dark."

Jiang Yu nodded, "He was out and about a while ago and got tanned." She took the change and smiled at the older sister, "Then we'll go first."

"Okay, take care." My sister smiled brightly.

The state-owned restaurant the two were going to was just across the street from the supply and marketing cooperative, so they could walk there slowly.

Yi Chi took Jiang Yu's bicycle and hung the basket on the handlebars. He was tall and had to bend slightly while pushing the bike. Jiang Yu said she was not happy to have her take over.

Jiang Yu followed him reluctantly, watching him walk with small, brisk steps. He seemed to be in a very good mood, which was also a bit funny.

"Are you that happy?"

"You didn't deny it, Jiang Yu. I'm so happy that I want to jump up!" Yi Chi tilted his head, trying his best to control his excitement and not make too loud a sound to attract other people's attention.

"Then you have to hold it in." Jiang Yu also smiled, his brows relaxed and the corners of his mouth raised.

When the two of them walked to the restaurant, the corners of their mouths were still curled up, like two idiots.

When the waiter at the state-owned restaurant saw Jiang Yu, he smiled and greeted her, "Long time no see, sister. What would you like to eat today? The chef just made some leek and egg dumplings. Would you like a plate?"

"Long time no see. I want a plate of dumplings, a portion of braised pork, pickled cabbage and pork, spicy peppers and bean curd, and two bowls of rice." Jiang Yu glanced at the small blackboard, which had today's offerings written on it. She picked out a few and then turned her head to look at Yi Chi, "Is there anything else you want to eat?"

"Is this enough?" Yi Chi asked Jiang Yu. Mainly because he still didn't quite understand Jiang Yu's appetite, she seemed to be able to eat a lot.

"Then order another serving of braised pork slices. If you can't finish it, you can pack it up." Jiang Yu looked around and ordered another meat dish.

Yi Chi is not picky about food, so he will eat whatever Jiang Yu orders.

The waiter quickly counted the money and gave the change, "Sit down first, I'll call you later."

"Okay, thank you sister." Jiang Yu thanked and took Yi Chi to sit in the corner.

Yi Chi put the basket at his feet, sat down, and subconsciously looked up at Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu happened to look up, and their eyes met, and the fool started laughing again.

After a while, Jiang Yu pursed her lips and glared at him, "What are you laughing at!"
