Chapter 248 It’s rare to be confused
Gu Hanchuan was so angry at those words that he laughed.
Did you just say that to his face?
"Okay, I'll wait. Think about how you're going to fool me before you speak."
Ye Nuan's lips twitched twice; this time, she was truly in a dilemma.
Putting aside the fact that these two large bags of grain are right here, she doesn't know how to explain it. She can only ask how these things got in, why no one in the family knows, and so on. These questions just keep coming up, how can she make up a story?
Gu Hanchuan stood by the door for about two minutes before handing her a ladder: "Haven't thought of anything, or don't know how to make it up? Or are you afraid I'll get angry?"
Ye Nuan pursed her lips, her mind racing. She gritted her teeth, walked to the wardrobe, spoke, took out the clothes hanging on it, and called to him, "Come and see for yourself."
While she was at it, Ye Nuan had already put two more bags of cornmeal and a bag of rice inside.
There are two large wardrobes in the bedroom, but Gu Hanchuan only uses half of one.
Why is it said to be half?
Because in the wardrobe that Gu Hanchuan used, the top was filled with clothes that the two of them often wore, below that was a horizontal shelf with some folded pants or coats, and below that were their bedding or blankets.
So, all things considered, Gu Hanchuan actually only used half of it.
The other wardrobe was mostly used by Ye Nuan.
Clothes were hanging above, but the area below, which should have been used to store bedding or clothes, now had three bags of grain.
Gu Hanchuan's expression was somewhat complicated: "What happened?"
"Yes, it's what we prepared before. I'm currently worried about how to get this food to the starving people."
"Explain clearly, where did it come from?"
Ye Nuan didn't dare to look up at him; Gu Hanchuan's aura was too overwhelming, and she was genuinely afraid.
"Some of them were sent by He Jiaxu, and some I obtained myself from the black market."
"You went to the black market?"
"I didn't go! I asked someone to go for me. I'm not stupid. We're both in military uniforms, why would I knowingly break the rules?"
"Ha, you think you're right? So, according to you, I should praise you a couple of times?"
Ye Nuan dared not utter a sound.
"So, this is all our family's food, but you've suddenly become so kind and want to send it to families who are struggling financially?"
That sounds sarcastic and sarcastic.
Ye Nuan lowered her head: "I just feel that if we have food, we can't just stand by and watch people starve to death. Besides, the rainy season is coming soon here, and I'm afraid the food will spoil."
"Alright. Then tell me, what were your original plans?"
Gu Hanchuan has now calmed down.
Fortunately, this was in her own home, and she had hidden in her bedroom, which at least proves that Ye Nuan is a cautious person.
"I don't know how to send it out; I was just worrying about it."
"Okay, I'll handle this. You don't need to worry about it."
Ye Nuan immediately looked up, her face full of surprise: "Really? You keep your word? No, will this affect you?"
"No, don't worry, I have a way to handle this."
Ye Nuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as Gu Hanchuan is willing to help, then it's not a problem.
And only now did she realize that Gu Hanchuan could drive, so perhaps this grain could be distributed all at once.
Around 8 PM, Gu Hanchuan said he had something to take care of, so he went out directly.
Ye Nuan sat at the gate waiting for him, mainly because she was afraid of waking the child and Li Qiang again.
When Gu Hanchuan left, he moved all the grain to the front gate. Ye Nuan stayed here to guard it, in case anything else happened.
Fortunately, everything went smoothly.
The couple went out together, and Gu Hanchuan even brought a few small bags for Ye Nuan to pack in the car.
Ye Nuan only made a rough estimate in her mind.
A bag of rice weighing 100 jin (50 kg) was divided into about seven or eight bags.
"Okay, you wait in the car and don't move around."
Gu Hanchuan took the last three bags of cornmeal directly to the home of the village head.
There were no streetlights at night, and Ye Nuan didn't know the way at all, so she had no idea which commune this was.
Ye Nuan sat in the car. She could tell that Gu Hanchuan and the other person were very familiar with each other, and they seemed to be old acquaintances.
Soon, the two walked to the car and unloaded all three bags of cornmeal.
"Keep this bag for your family, in the hope that you can take some time to look after those elderly people. As for the remaining two bags, you and the brigade cadres can discuss how to distribute them among the commune members."
"Thank you so much, Comrade Gu."
"No need to be so polite. We're just getting what we need. I just hope that the elderly people can eat well and stay warm here. It doesn't matter if the clothes are a bit worn or if they eat vegetarian food. I just want to make sure they don't get sick."
"Okay, don't worry, I'll keep an eye on things, nothing will go wrong."
"Thank you."
Ye Nuan then realized that there were several people who had been sent down to the countryside living in this village, and that they had some connection with Gu Hanchuan.
On the way back, Ye Nuan glanced at him a few times, but didn't dare to ask any questions.
There are some things that she simply cannot bring herself to say.
However, Gu Hanchuan didn't intend to hide it from her and explained it to her.
“Several elders have been assigned here, and their living conditions are not very good. I have been trying to help them. In fact, my uncle and I used some connections to get them assigned here, mainly because the battalion commander used to be a soldier.”
Upon hearing this, Ye Nuan understood.
"Only a few of them?"
Gu Hanchuan glanced at her and smiled, "Of course not! Right now, I can only take care of these few communes. Some of my elders have been assigned to the Northwest or the Northeast. I can only take care of the present. My uncle is helping out in the Northeast, so things usually won't go wrong."
"I understand now. So, do you need a lot of food?"
"No need for that. I used to just give the brigade leader money or tickets and ask him to find a way to help. Even when I went to see them, I usually did it at night, or I would come openly with some other people to check their self-criticism. In short, you can't come to this place alone in the future."
"understood."
Gu Hanchuan turned to look at her. This little wife of his only thought was that she was obedient, but she was actually quite righteous in her heart!
He still had to be careful. The villagers in these villages weren't really that kind. In some places, they even directly attacked female educated youth. So he was really afraid that his wife might be bold enough to run over alone again.
"If there is any more food, just tell me and I will find a way to dispose of it."
"it is good."
Ye Nuan breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to herself that she had finally passed this hurdle.
This can be considered a rare moment of blissful ignorance!
