Chapter 366 Go home for dinner
As he spoke, Wang Jianguo pointed to the two rabbits on the ground and continued:
"I'll keep these two rabbits for now. I'll take them back to Director Liu of the brick factory later."
"When we build a house in the future, we still have to rely on them to provide us with bricks. We can't neglect this favor."
He Yushui listened attentively to every word Wang Jianguo said, with a serious look on his face, and nodded in agreement:
"Don't worry, Brother Jianguo, I will take care of everything. After the rabbits are cleaned up, I will pack them up carefully and make sure nothing goes wrong."
Wang Jianguo looked at He Yushui's determined and trustworthy appearance, nodded with satisfaction again, then turned around and strode towards the door.
His figure gradually faded away in the sunlight, and he resolutely rushed to the next "battlefield" with concern for the affairs of the supply and marketing cooperative and planning for many subsequent matters.
Wang Jianguo sat steadily on the shaft of the ox cart, holding the reins tightly in his hands, and with a shout, he drove the ox cart along the winding road straight towards the supply and marketing cooperative.
Along the way, the wooden wheels of the ox cart bumped and rolled on the rugged road, making a "creaking" sound, as if it were an ancient and simple country song.
When we arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative, we saw a group of people standing in the yard. They were all covered in dust and their clothes were soaked with sweat. It was obvious that they had just finished the heavy work of unloading bricks.
At this time, driver Xiao Zhang was also in the crowd, and his sharp eyes immediately caught a glimpse of Wang Jianguo's arrival.
So he walked up quickly, with a simple smile on his face, and said to Wang Jianguo:
"Comrade, you see, the bricks have all been unloaded. If there is nothing else, I will go back first."
"Don't worry, if you need bricks again in the future, just let me know and I will deliver them to you right away."
Upon hearing this, Wang Jianguo immediately shook his head firmly. He stretched out his powerful big hand, grabbed the calloused hand of driver Xiao Zhang, and said with sincerity and enthusiasm in his eyes:
"That's absolutely not possible, Xiao Zhang, the driver. As the saying goes, everyone who comes is a guest. How can a guest just leave after finishing his work?"
"I'm telling you, my sister is already busy cooking at home. I went to the mountains early this morning and it took a lot of effort."
"I shot some plump pheasants and rabbits to improve everyone's life."
"Think about it, this kind of fresh game is rare. It would be a pity if you missed it."
"Besides, if we get together for a meal, it can be considered as a way to keep in touch with each other. Driver Xiao Zhang, please don't refuse."
"If you refuse, you'll be giving me no face, and I'll feel really bad."
Wang Jianguo spoke earnestly and righteously, and his sincere attitude was irresistible.
Driver Xiao Zhang felt a little embarrassed when he saw Wang Jianguo's enthusiasm and listened to his irresistible words.
But he also knew that he couldn't refuse. He scratched his head, a helpless smile appeared on his face, and finally nodded and agreed:
"Okay, Comrade Wang, I will obey your orders. I am really grateful to you today."
The sun was shining on the land of the supply and marketing cooperative. After a brief discussion with several workers, Wang Jianguo quickly took action and started an intensive and orderly construction preparation work.
Wang Jianguo personally picked up the hoe and walked towards the designated foundation location. Every time he swung the hoe, there was a sound of the ground loosening.
Shovels of soil were turned up, emitting a fresh scent under the sunlight.
Next to them, several workers who are good at measuring were holding tape measures, measuring every corner attentively.
He occasionally reports precise numbers, and his eyes are full of professionalism and rigor.
"Recheck the length here to ensure accuracy. This is basic work."
Just as everyone was working hard, a familiar sound of ox cart bells came from the distance.
Zhao Shuzhuo sat steadily on the ox cart and slowly drove into the supply and marketing cooperative.
He saw the busy crowd at a glance, and without any hesitation, he quickly parked the ox cart, then walked quickly to the tool storage area and picked up a shovel.
He naturally integrated into the busy team and cooperated with everyone tacitly, as if he had been working here all the time.
Time passed quietly in the busyness, and the high-intensity work made everyone gradually feel exhausted.
Everyone's forehead was covered with beads of sweat, which slid down their cheeks and dripped onto the ground beneath their feet.
The clothes on my back were soaked with sweat and stuck to my body. My arms were aching from the long hours of exertion, and our movements were no longer as fast and powerful as they were at the beginning.
At this time, the sun was getting hotter and hotter, as if it was going to scorch the earth. Finally, when a wave of fatigue came over him, Wang Jianguo decided to let everyone take a break.
Everyone put down their tools and walked to the shade of a tree. Some sat on the ground, some leaned against the tree trunk, and kept fanning themselves with their hands, trying to relieve the heat and fatigue in their bodies.
Just when everyone was resting, He Yushui appeared at the door of the supply and marketing cooperative. She walked briskly through the front yard and went straight to the back yard.
After seeing Wang Jianguo, she showed a gentle smile on her face and said softly:
"Brother Jianguo, the meal is ready and smells delicious. Let's go back and eat. I'm sure everyone is starving."
When Wang Jianguo heard He Yushui's voice, he looked up, a trace of relief flashed in his eyes. He stood up, clapped his hands, and shouted to everyone in a louder voice:
"Everyone has been tired for so long, and your stomachs should be growling. Let's go eat. We have delicious game today, which will improve our meals."
When everyone heard this, their tired expressions were instantly replaced by anticipation. They all stood up and sorted out their tools scattered around.
Some workers wiped their hoes carefully, while others carefully rolled up their measuring tapes and put them into their tool bags.
Afterwards, everyone followed Wang Jianguo and Zhao Shuzhuo in an orderly manner and walked towards the ox cart parked nearby.
Wang Jianguo first helped several older workers onto the ox cart, and then he jumped on himself.
Zhao Shuzhuo was pulling the ox cart in front. With his shout, the ox cart started slowly and drove along the country road towards home, raising a light cloud of dust behind it.
Everyone followed Wang Jianguo into the yard with great anticipation. As soon as they stepped over the threshold, a rich and tempting fragrance hit their noses.
The fragrance seemed to have life, drilling straight into the nasal cavity and instantly hooking everyone's taste buds.
Everyone's face showed joy at the same time, and their eyes were shining with desire for delicious food.
