After my stepmother was shot, I took my brothers to the countryside

Chapter 176: Loading Eggs

Aunt Li, panting, finally caught up with the village head's wife and the educated young man Shen, who had lagged behind. She asked anxiously, "Captain's wife, educated young man Shen, what are you doing in such a hurry? Are you going to the back hill to look at the chickens?"

"Yes, Xiaoju grandma, we are going to the back mountain!" The captain's wife responded, but her pace did not slow down at all.

When Aunt Li heard she was right, she quickly asked, "Is there something wrong with the chickens in the back hill? Why are you so anxious? Are the chickens dead?"

As soon as Aunt Li finished speaking, Shen Nian stopped and turned around and said unhappily: "Aunt Li, you are right, our chicken is very good!"

Aunt Li muttered, "The chicken is fine, why are you running so fast? It's not worth talking about."

The captain's wife also stopped and looked at Aunt Li: "Xiaoju's grandma, what do you want to do by following us? Do you want to see if the chickens in the back mountain are dead?"

"Aunt Li, don't worry. Even if there is a problem with your chickens, there will be no problem with our chickens in the back mountain!" Shen Nian said.

When Aunt Li heard this, a trace of embarrassment flashed across her face, and she quickly apologized with a smile, "Oh, Captain's wife, Shen Zhiqing, look at me, I just can't speak. Our brigade's chicken farm is our hope, how can I not hope for it to be well? You guys get busy, you guys get busy, I'll go back first."

The captain's wife and Shen Nian ignored her and continued to walk quickly towards the chicken farm.

"Bah, your kindness is really taken for granted! You even cursed my chickens to death! I think all your chickens will suffer!" Aunt Li looked at the two men's backs and cursed in a low voice.

After saying that, Aunt Li turned around and walked slowly back home, but she couldn't help but wonder in her heart: something must have gone wrong at the chicken farm in the back mountain, otherwise the team leader and his wife wouldn't have rushed there in such a hurry.

"Forget it, never mind! You don't want me to help! I don't want to help either!" Aunt Li muttered to herself as she walked home.

When Aunt Li saw Aunt Li coming back the same way with an unhappy look on her face, she was secretly delighted. It seemed that her sister-in-law really didn't get anything good from Shen Nian!

At this time, the captain looked at the pleasing eggs in the basket, his mouth stretched to his ears, and his smile never stopped.

"Good, good! These eggs are so good! And you guys! You are all good members of our team!" The team leader touched the eggs in this basket, then touched the eggs in that basket, his heart full of joy.

Shen Nian looked at the collective gazes of her teammates, walked forward with a hint of helplessness and a smile, and said to the captain:

"Captain, we're truly flattered by your words! We're simply doing our best for the good of our collective! This is our responsibility!"

"Yes, yes, captain, what Shen Zhiqing said is exactly what we want to say!" Mrs. Zhang and other team members also echoed, their faces filled with smiles of pride and joy.

The team leader smiled and gently tapped Shen Nian with his finger: "You, you, you are the one who can talk! Our team is so lucky to have an educated youth like you!"

Shen Nian responded playfully: "Captain, your good fortune is yet to come!"

This made everyone laugh. The captain nodded repeatedly and said with a smile, "Yes, yes, I am the lucky one! I have good eyesight. As soon as I heard your suggestion, I agreed without hesitation!"

"You old man have no shame. You still praise yourself at your age. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at?" The captain's wife patted the team leader gently.

The captain pointed at his wife and said to Shen Nian, "Look, your aunt doesn't agree with me."

Shen Nian tilted her head wittily and said with a smile, "Captain, I'm just being modest. Everyone in our team knows that you and I are the backbone of our team. With you here, our team will definitely be more prosperous and more interesting!"

The captain's wife blushed slightly when she was praised by Shen Nian, and she scolded him, "You are such a sweet girl, stop praising me, let's get down to business."

The captain slapped his forehead and said seriously, "That's right! Look at me, I was so happy that I almost forgot about the important things."

"Shen Zhiqing, why don't we take these eggs to the supply and marketing cooperative now?" The team leader turned to look at Shen Nian and suggested, his eyes full of anticipation.

Shen Nian smiled and nodded, "Captain, I think so too." After he finished speaking, Gu Jianhua had already driven the ox cart to the outside of the chicken farm.

"Captain, I've got the ox cart. Do we want to load the eggs now?" Gu Jianhua shouted to everyone, his voice full of energy.

Upon hearing this, the team leader immediately responded, "Right! Comrade Gu, let's load all the eggs onto the truck now! Everyone, lend a hand! Let's try to get to the supply and marketing cooperative as soon as possible!"

Everyone responded in agreement and soon the baskets and baskets filled with eggs were placed securely on the ox cart.

Shen Nian carefully tied the eggs tightly with a rope several times, checked to make sure that the eggs would not slip off while the ox cart was moving, and then nodded with satisfaction.

Seeing Shen Nian nod, the team leader waved to everyone and said, "This ox cart can't hold so many people. Xiao Nian, Comrade Gu and I will go to the supply and marketing cooperative together. You all can go back!"

"Xiao Nian, then you should be careful on the road and ask your uncle to drive slower so as not to break the eggs!" Su Dingyi warned Shen Nian with some concern.

Shen Nian nodded repeatedly and comforted her, "Don't worry, Aunt Su, I will definitely keep an eye on my uncle. You all came out early today, and you haven't eaten yet, right? Go back and eat!"

"Comrade Gu, please drive the car steadily and don't break the eggs. Let's go." The captain gave an order.

Gu Jianhua responded, held the whip firmly, and shouted softly, and the ox cart slowly started.

On the way, the team leader checked the eggs from time to time, fearing that something might go wrong.

Seeing this, Shen Nian smiled and said, "Captain, don't worry. We were very careful when loading the truck. I even used ropes to secure the baskets. Uncle Gu drives slowly, so there will be no problem with the eggs."

The captain smiled and said, "I'm just worried. These eggs are the result of your hard work over the past few months. We can't afford to make any mistakes."

The three of them chatted all the way and before they knew it, they arrived at the supply and marketing cooperative in town.
