Chapter 589: Forcibly showing respect 589 times...

Fang Zhitong: "..."

Though what he said wasn’t wrong, was it really okay to call it out directly?

After the pork was delivered, Lin Qingmu drove Uncle and the others back to the brigade.

With so much money in hand, they couldn’t rest easy until they hurried back to distribute it among the members.

Lin Qingshan gave Fang Zhitong and the others a look that said "see you later" and drove off.

The drivers from the transport team watched the car disappear into the distance.

As soon as those who delivered the gifts left, the drivers immediately became spirited.

A skinny driver hugged three pounds of pork as if it were dearer than his own wife.

"Let’s all head home, too. With so much meat, we can finally fill our bellies tonight."

He said the words with such unworthy eagerness that he even slurped his saliva.

With only a few ounces of meat rations per month, which household would dare to indulge? Didn’t everyone save their meat rations, all lacking fatty nourishment in their diets?

Seeing the fatty layers on the living pigs, their eyes almost turned red with desire.

Hearing that man talk about "feasting on meat," Fang Zhitong had some thoughts as well.

He waved to the others and carried his meat to his vehicle.

After driving back to the transport team, Fang Zhitong went home.

When he arrived, his wife was at home.

"Wife, let’s make steamed meat with rice flour tonight," Fang Zhitong said excitedly.

The woman was mending clothes and wanted to rebuff his suggestion.

But when she turned her head and saw the meat in her husband’s hand,

Her expression brightened with joy, she put down her work, and went to greet him.

Taking the meat, her eyes were filled with delight.

"Where did you get so much meat from?"

Seeing the smile on his wife’s face made Fang Zhitong happy as well.

"Didn’t I say I was going to Shuangshan Brigade to help transport pigs? This pork is a gift from the Shuangshan Brigade."

After explaining where the pork came from, he said, filled with admiration,

"You have no idea how great the pigs at Shuangshan Brigade are, each pig is so fat..."

"The lightest ones are at least a hundred eighty pounds, the heaviest weigh over two hundred thirty. I was so shocked that my eyeballs nearly fell out, but I held it in."

"And I’ll tell you, the Shuangshan Brigade really has a knack for this, and the brigade leaders are quite personable."

"If something like this happens again, I’m afraid everyone will be fighting over it. It’s a good thing my relationship with Qingmu is alright..."

Fang Zhitong chuckled towards the end of his remarks.

His wife secretly rolled her eyes,

And let out a tiny snort.

"I seem to recall someone wasn’t too happy when they were assigned the task of delivering piglets."

Fang Zhitong: "..."

Fang Zhitong was at a loss for words.

After a moment of silence, he tried to restore his dignity.

"That’s not the right way to put it, I just wanted to watch a movie with you at the time, right?"

The woman almost snorted out the word "Huh".

Considering that the man of the house brought back so much meat, without merit, he still had the effort; she didn’t retort.

Let it go, letting him have his way occasionally wasn’t a big deal.

"The meat is really good, do you want to eat steamed meat with rice flour tonight?"

Fang Zhitong nodded repeatedly, "Yeah, yeah, yeah!"

"Okay, I’ll make it for you," said the woman agreeably.

Old Fang worked hard driving the car, so having a good meal to recharge was fine.

You can’t just have the ox work without feeding it grass.

While they didn’t have children yet, they might as well enjoy good food and drink.

Once they had a child, expenses would rise, and indulgence would be accompanied by worries.

Fang Zhitong had no idea what his wife was thinking, but when he heard her agreement, his happiness was written all over his face.

"Alright, I’ll help you out."

This scene took place in several households that brought meat home.

In less than half a day, the people from the transport team all knew that the Shuang Shan Brigade had raised a batch of fat pigs and had given three pounds to each comrade who helped with transportation.

There was a chance to go, but the driver, having matters at home, gave up the opportunity to someone else, his expression freezing on the spot.

Some couldn’t resist going to look for Lin Qingmu, only to find that he was still on vacation.

All they could do was suppress their ideas for the moment, planning to talk when the person returned.

These were matters for later, Lin Qingmu was unaware at this time.

The group returned to the brigade.

No sooner had the vehicle stopped than the members swarmed over.

Before anyone could speak, Lin Fu preempted them with a strong statement.

"We’ve sold the pigs and brought back the money for everyone. The village entrance is too small, everyone head to the threshing ground, come one household at a time."

Seeing the pure smiles on the members’ dark faces, the brigade captains were delighted beyond measure.

From below someone shouted, "Captain, we just want to ask one thing, we heard from Tangtang that the pigs were graded, what grades did our brigade’s pigs get? Are there second grades?"

By now, everyone knew that first grade meant premium pigs.

They weren’t hoping for first-grade pigs, but thought that second grade would be quite good.

Lin Fu laughed heartily, "That’s an understatement."

Without waiting for the members to guess further, he announced the correct answer directly.

"According to the Inspector’s evaluation, all of our brigade’s pigs are first grade."

As his words fell, the place went quiet for an instant, then erupted into cheers.

"All are first-grade pigs..." An older man exclaimed, his face reddening with excitement.

Zhao Honghua, thinking that her family finally had extra money to arrange a marriage for her son, wept with joy.

"That’s wonderful."

She took hold of Li Xiuli’s hand.

Her voice was somewhat choked up, but the smile on her face carried an unprecedented ease.

Li Xiuli patted her friend’s hand, saying with a smile, "With this income, Ziqiang can get married."

Zhao Honghua wiped her eyes and nodded.

"Hmm, once Ziqiang gets married, I’ll finally be at ease."

Just then, Lin Fei came over and clung to Li Xiuli’s leg.

"Granny, I want a piece of candy."

The little girl, with her fair was and cute face, gazed up with those clear, bright eyes, softly begging for candy.

No one could refuse.

Li Xiuli took out a piece of candy for her granddaughter, "I only took one piece, don’t tell the others, okay?"

Lin Fei’s face was mischievous as she covered her mouth with her small hand and said, "Won’t tell, won’t tell, I won’t tell anyone."

After thanking Li Xiuli, she scampered away like a little monkey.

Li Xiuli sighed resignedly, "Look at that, I still can’t rest easy."

Zhao Honghua said with a laugh, "...A woman’s whole life, there’s never an end to the worries."

But some worries, one carries willingly.

Li Xiuli agreed with the sentiment, "Isn’t that the truth."

Seeing everyone heading to the threshing ground, she pulled Zhao Honghua along with her, and they followed.

Hua Xing eyed the backs of the two women, her gaze flickering, seemingly calculating something.

Chen Jiefang, seeing his woman not moving, tugged at her, "What are you spacing out for, hurry up! They’re distributing money, show some enthusiasm."

His discontented words fell, and without waiting for Hua Xing to reply, he walked away without looking back.

Hua Xing, seeing this, felt a tightness in her chest, her face flushed with anger.

However, remembering the thought that had just occurred to her, her face took on a smile again, and she jogged to catch up.

"Husband..." Hua Xing called out in a pinched voice.

Chen Jiefang, hearing the sound, frowned slightly.

"What’s up?"

His tone was impatient.

Only after moving in with Hua Xing, leaving Zhao Honghua behind, did he realize how comfortable his previous life had been.

Hua Xing detected the man’s impatience.

She was annoyed with Chen Jiefang as well, but given her poor reputation within the brigade, aside from being tied to this "dog" of a man, she was caught between a rock and a hard place.

Pretending not to notice the emotion at the bottom of the man’s eyes, Hua Xing wore a gentle smile.

"I hear... Sister Honghua has raised two pigs..."

After mentioning that, she paused, gauging Chen Jiefang’s reaction.
