17 Public Execution
17 Public Execution
"Folks, here today, on behalf of the country, the party, and the brigade, I commend a person by name."
"Gu Mingdong, the descendant of a martyr in our brigade, killed the wild boar that would harm the crops, and not only wanted to eat it for himself, he took the initiative to tell the brigade and distributed it to all members of the commune."
"I went to the town today. Secretary Wang found out about this and he specifically praised our brigade, especially Gu Mingdong. He has the unique spirit of sacrifice and struggle of the proletariat."
"Let us welcome Gu Mingdong to the stage with strong applause."
It was rare for the shriveled old Liu to have the ability to respond to everyone, and the applause burst from the rice drying field.
Gu Mingdong's face was numb.
"Brother, go up quickly." The second brother Gu was so excited, he stretched out his hand and pushed his elder brother onto the stage.
"This kid is so happy and silly." Gu Jianguo rarely showed a smile.
Gu Mingdong moved with heavy steps, and walked to the side of the old Liu step by step: "Captain, this is not due to me alone, the wild boar belongs to everyone."
The shriveled old Liu was being praised, and now he was happy, and said with a smile: "Ah Dong, don't be humble at this time, you are the hero of our brigade without you.
"Here, take it." The flat old Liu handed him something.
Gu Mingdong's smile froze: "What is this?"
"Open it quickly." The flat old Liu shouted with a smile, "This is a certificate written by Secretary Wang himself. It is a hero of eradication, which represents the country's recognition and praise for our brigade."
The members of the club had never seen such a powerful performance before. With a bang, they applauded vigorously.
Gu Mingdong numbly opened the certificate, stood on the stage and let everyone watch, with an embarrassing smile on his lips.
Gu Mingdong spread out the lottery certificate, the red background, the ink stains are very fresh, one can tell that it was written on the spot.
It's really unnecessary, Gu Mingdong had the illusion of parading around the streets with big red flowers.
The shriveled old Liu continued to shout hoarsely: "Folks, we all have to learn from Comrade Gu Mingdong."
Gu Mingdong who stepped off the stage was almost staggered by the sound.
The second brother Gu didn't understand his brother's embarrassment, he reached out to take the certificate, and looked at it happily: "You all come and have a look, this is a certificate issued to my brother by the secretary of the town."
Members rushed over to take a look.
Gu Mingdong patted his forehead, and sneaked home while no one was paying attention.
After a while, the second brother Gu came back with the certificate, and said as soon as he entered the door: "Brother, why did you come back so soon? The captain just said that Secretary Wang likes you very much and wants the whole commune to learn from you."
Gu Sanmei also said: "Fourth sister, you don't know how powerful big brother is just now, everyone applauded him."
Gu Simei suddenly regretted: "I should have gone to see it if I knew it."
Gu Mingdong pinched the center of his eyebrows: "Okay, let's put down and eat."
For the first time, Gu Erdi put the matter of eating to the back, and held up the certificate to find a place to post it: "Wait a minute, brother, let's find a place to post it."
Gu Simei stood up and said, "Second brother, why don't you post it here, so that people can hear it as soon as they enter the door."
Gu Mingdong saw that it was directly opposite the gate, and it was really eye-catching.
"You guys wait first..." Gu Mingdong felt unspeakable shame in his heart when he thought that the anti-harm hero was posted in the most obvious position.
Three pairs of similar eyes looked at him in unison, as if asking what are you waiting for.
Gu Mingdong paused, then simply said: "All right, you can post wherever you like."
After speaking, he hugged the twins in his arms and rubbed their little heads to relieve the pressure.
The second brother Gu was stepping on the bench, and he was bound to stick the certificate in the middle, the most eye-catching and safest place.
Gu Sanmei supported the stool to help him see if it was stuck crookedly.
Gu Simei became ruthless, took out the rice that she usually couldn't even bear to eat, and stirred it into a paste for later use.
In an instant, Gu Mingdong seemed to have returned to his childhood. When he returned home with a certificate of excellence for the first time, his parents were so happy and posted it happily.
Recalling his parents who had passed away long ago and would never see him again, Gu Mingdong's embarrassment disappeared and was replaced by a strange emotion.
Gu Liangxing suddenly reached out and hugged his father's neck, leaning against his face and asked, "Is Dad unhappy?"
When Gu Mingdong came back to his senses, he met his son's big innocent eyes, and the two identical little faces tilted their heads. Looking at him, their little heads bumped into each other.
Gu Mingdong suddenly felt relieved, and said with a smile: "I'm not unhappy, it's quite interesting to see your second uncle tormenting."
Gu Erdi heard it, and shouted without turning his head: "This is not a toss, this is our family's honor."
This excitement lasted until the evening. During the meal, Gu's second brother was spitting all over the place.
As Gu Mingdong listened, he almost thought that he had gone to the capital to accept the commendation from the supreme leader, instead of being awarded a certificate of merit at no cost by the team leader in the village or on the grain drying field.
After the meal, Gu Erdi became even more attentive.
Regardless of Gu Sanmei's cold stare, she made a cup of sugar water for her eldest brother, and then boiled a pot of hot water to bring her foot washing water at just the right temperature.
When Gu Mingdong washed his feet, he stood beside him, helping him squeeze his shoulders and beat his legs.
Although he has already enjoyed it once, Gu Mingdong still feels creepy: "Second brother, can you be normal?"
When Gu Sanmei heard this, she burst out laughing.
Gu Simei and the twins also snickered one after another, forming a ball of laughter.
Second Brother Gu yelled at them angrily, "Why are you laughing?"
Turning around and asking flatteringly: "Brother, are you tired, how about I squeeze your feet again."
Gu Mingdong quickly stopped him: "No need, you go do your own thing."
"I'm fine, just let me serve you." Second Brother Gu smiled flatteringly.
Gu Mingdong's head hurts, it's not that he dislikes his younger brother, it's that this guy doesn't know how to pinch his shoulders, it's either light or heavy, it's not serving, it's suffering.
If he hadn't believed in his younger brother's IQ, Gu Mingdong would have suspected that he was making trouble on purpose.
Gu Mingdong quickly dried his feet and entered the room, but after a while, Second Brother Gu poked a head in from the door.
"Brother, can I sleep with you tonight?"
"No." Gu Mingdong refused decisively.
He got into the quilt and said that he was going to sleep, so he left quickly.
The second brother Gu has already entered the door: "Why not, we brothers haven't slept together for a long time."
Gu Mingdong didn't hide his dislike: "I despise you."
Second brother Gu rubbed himself on the bed, grabbed the quilt and said, "We are brothers, how can you despise me, besides, I washed my feet, I smelled it and it didn't stink at all."
After finishing speaking, he kept squeezing on the bed.
If it wasn't for Gu Nian's brother, Gu Mingdong would have to kick him and kick him out.
He had to ask, "Second brother, what do you want to do?"
Second brother Gu squatted beside the bed, showing a naive smile.
Gu Mingdong pinched the center of his brows: "Be normal and speak well."
Second brother Gu quickly said: "Brother, I really want to cultivate a relationship with you first."
Gu Mingdong frowned: "If you don't tell the truth, you don't need to say it from now on."
Seeing that he was really going to lie down and sleep, Second Brother Gu was anxious: "No, then I told you, you have to promise me."
Gu Mingdong squinted his eyes, looking at Second Brother Gu with a dangerous light in his eyes.
Gu Erdi suddenly remembered that his elder brother said that he hated other people's threats the most.
Scratching his ears anxiously, he explained, "Brother, this is not a threat, but a request."
If I don't send him away, I really can't sleep peacefully today.
A habit brought about by the end of the world, when Gu Mingdong couldn't allow himself to sleep, he had a pair of eyes staring at him.
He simply sat up and looked down at his younger brother: "So what are you asking for?"
Gu Erdi rubbed his hands, if he hadn't been good-looking, this movement would definitely be terribly wretched.
"That, brother...can you teach me that."
"Which one?"
Gu Erdi gestured with his hands and feet: "That's the one, with a click, it killed such a big wild boar directly, can you teach me?"
Without waiting for Gu Mingdong to answer, he continued: "When I learn it, I don't need to work hard, I will go up the mountain to kill pigs for you to eat every day."
Look at that smile is very sincere.
Gu Mingdong laughed, he kills pigs with supernatural powers, this silly brother wants to learn how to reincarnate first, and go to the future to experience the apocalypse.
But when he changed his mind, Gu Mingdong didn't directly refuse. Although Gu Mingnan and Wang Mazi parted ways, the possibility of that incident happening in the future is infinitely small, but this kid is so stubborn that he might be deceived again at some point.
Rather than that, let him find something to do, so as not to cause trouble when he is too free.
Having made up his mind, Gu Mingdong looked at his younger brother with a kindness of caring for the out-of-school children: "A'nan, if someone else asks this, I definitely can't teach it, but you are different, you are my own brother, you want to learn If so, it’s not impossible.”
Gu Mingnan's eyes lit up, like a donkey seeing a carrot.
Gu Mingdong smiled slightly: "Learning kung fu is hard work, and you have to avoid people. It's not very useful if you learn it. Are you sure you want to learn it?"
The second brother Gu nodded his head in a hurry, and was as active as a chicken pecking rice: "Yes, I am not afraid of hard work."
Gu Mingdong nodded, patted his younger brother on the shoulder and said, "Then start tomorrow, it's too late today, you should go back and rest first."
Only then did Second Brother Gu agree to leave, and when he reached the door, he turned his head abruptly and looked at Gu Mingdong hesitantly.
Gu Mingdong paused for a moment, wondering if the donkey found out that he was fooling him?
In the next moment, Second Brother Gu lowered his voice and asked, "Brother, if you teach me, will I have to call you master in the future?"
Pfft——Gu Mingdong was so embarrassed that he didn't laugh on the spot. He felt that this silly brother was cute in his heart, and said with a serious face, "Master, it's okay. Now it's a new society, so this kind of thing is not popular."
Second Brother Gu breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "That's good, I also think it's closer to call Big Brother."
After finally sending his younger brother away, Gu Mingdong shook his head and lay on his back on the bed.
The house was a bit airy, but the bed was still very warm. After eating enough, he breathed the fresh air and listened to the insects and birds singing in the quiet night. Gu Mingdong felt that the small days were beautiful.
