Chapter 17 Public Execution

"Folks, here today, I represent the country, the party, and the brigade to commend someone by name."

"Gu Mingdong, a descendant of the martyrs of our brigade, killed the wild boar that would harm the crops. Not only did he want to eat it for himself, he took the initiative to tell the brigade and distributed it to all the members."

"I went to town today. Secretary Wang found out about this and praised our team, especially Gu Mingdong, who has the unique spirit of sacrifice and struggle of the proletariat."

"Let us welcome Gu Mingdong to the stage with fierce applause."

It was rare for Lao Liu to have the ability to respond to everything, and there was a roar of applause on the grain drying ground.

Gu Mingdong's face was numb.

"Brother, come up quickly." The second brother Gu was so excited that he stretched out his hand to push his eldest brother to the stage.

"This kid is so happy." Gu Jianguo also rarely showed a smile.

Gu Mingdong moved with heavy steps and walked step by step to the old Liu: "Captain, this is not my fault alone, the wild boar belongs to everyone."

The old Liu was very happy after being praised. He said with a smile: "Ah Dong, don't be humble now. Where would you be without you? You are the hero of our team."

"Here, take it." Wrong old Liu handed something to him.

Gu Mingdong's smile froze: "What is this?"

"Open it quickly." Lao Liu shouted with a smile, "This is a certificate of merit written by Secretary Wang himself. It is a hero in eradicating harm. It represents the country's recognition and praise of our brigade."

The club members had never seen such a powerful person before. With a roar, they clapped even harder.

Gu Mingdong numbly opened the certificate and stood on the stage for everyone to watch, with an embarrassed smile on his face.

Gu Mingdong spread out the certificate. The red background and ink stains were very fresh. You could tell at a glance that it was written on the spot.

It was really unnecessary. Gu Mingdong had the illusion that he was parading around with a big red flower.

The old Liu continued to shout at the top of his lungs: "Folks, we must all learn from Comrade Gu Mingdong."

Gu Mingdong, who was walking 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 here and take a look. This is the certificate given to my brother by the town secretary."

The members crowded over to take a look.

Gu Mingdong slapped his forehead and quickly slipped home while no one was paying attention.

After a while, the second brother Gu came back with the certificate. As soon as he entered the door, he said: "Brother, why are you back so soon? The captain just now was still saying that Secretary Wang likes you very much and wants the entire commune to learn from you."

Gu Sanmei also said, "Fourth sister, you don't know how majestic the eldest brother was just now. Everyone was applauding him."

Gu Simei suddenly felt regretful: "If I had known earlier, I should have gone over and had a look."

Gu Mingdong pinched his eyebrows and said, "Okay, let's put it down and eat."

For the first time, Gu Erdi put the meal behind him and held the certificate everywhere 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, others can hear it as soon as they come in."

Gu Mingdong took a look and saw that it was directly opposite the gate. It was indeed very eye-catching.

"Wait a minute..." Gu Mingdong felt indescribable shame when he thought that the pest-killing hero was posted in the most obvious position.

Three pairs of similar eyes looked at him, as if asking what they were waiting for.

Gu Mingdong paused and said simply: "Okay, you can post it wherever you like."

After saying that, he held the twins in his arms and patted their little heads to relax.

Second brother Gu stepped on the bench, determined to stick the certificate in the middle, the most eye-catching and safest place.

Gu Sanmei held the stool to help him see if it was crooked.

Gu Simei was cruel, took out the rice that she usually couldn't bear to eat, and mixed it into a paste for later use.

For a moment, Gu Mingdong seemed to have returned to his childhood. When he came home for the first time with a certificate for being a good student, his parents were so happy and posted it happily.

Recalling his parents who had passed away long ago and would never be seen again, Gu Mingdong's awkward mood disappeared and was replaced by a strange emotion.

Gu Liangxing suddenly reached out and hugged his father's neck, and asked close to his face: "Isn't Dad happy?"

When Gu Mingdong came back to his senses, he met his son's innocent big eyes. Two identical little faces tilted their heads, looking at him, and their little heads bumped together.

Gu Mingdong suddenly felt relieved and said with a smile: "I'm not unhappy. It's quite fun to watch your second uncle struggle."

The second brother Gu heard this and shouted without looking back: "Why is this a hassle? This is the honor of our family."

This excitement lasted until the evening. During the meal, Gu Erdi was talking so much that he was salivating.

When Gu Mingdong listened, he almost thought that he had gone to the capital to receive a commendation from the supreme leader, instead of being given a certificate of merit at no cost by the captain in the village, on the grain drying field.

After finishing the meal, Gu Erdi was even more attentive.

Regardless of Sanmei Gu's cold eyes, she made a cup of sugar water for her eldest brother, then boiled a pot of hot water and brought him foot-washing water with just the right temperature.

When Gu Mingdong was washing his feet, he stood next to him, squeezing his shoulders and beating his legs.

Although he had already enjoyed it once, Gu Mingdong still felt uncomfortable: "Boy, can you be normal?"

When Gu Sanmei heard this, she burst into laughter.

Gu Simei and the twins also snickered and burst into laughter.

Gu Erdi yelled at them angrily: "Why are you laughing?"

He turned around and asked flatteringly: "Brother, are you tired? Why don't I give you a squeeze on your feet again?"

Gu Mingdong quickly stopped him: "No need, you go do your own thing."

"I'm fine, just let me take care of you." Gu Erdi said with a flattering smile.

Gu Mingdong's head hurts. It's not that he dislikes his younger brother, it's because this guy pinches his shoulders without a proper measure. It's either too gentle or too harsh. That's not serving him, it's suffering.

If he hadn't believed in his younger brother's IQ, Gu Mingdong would have suspected that he was deliberately tormenting him.

Gu Mingdong quickly wiped his feet and went into the house. After a while, Gu's second brother poked his head in from outside 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 and left quickly.

Brother Gu has already entered the door: "Why not? We brothers haven't slept together for a long time."

Gu Mingdong did not hide his dislike: "I dislike you."

The second brother Gu crawled onto the bed, pulled the quilt and said, "We are brothers, how can you dislike me? Besides, I washed my feet. I just smelled them and they didn't smell bad at all."

After saying that, I kept squeezing on the bed.

If he hadn't thought that he was a biological brother, Gu Mingdong would have given him a kick and kicked him out directly.

He had to ask: "Second brother, what do you want to do?"

The second brother Gu squatted beside the bed, showing a naive smile.

Gu Mingdong pinched his eyebrows and said, "Be normal and speak nicely."

Gu Erdi quickly said: "Brother, I really just want to cultivate a relationship with you first."

Gu Mingdong raised his eyebrows: "If you don't tell the truth, then you don't have to tell me anymore."

Seeing that he was really going to lie down and sleep, Brother Gu became anxious and said, "No, then you have to promise me what I said."

Gu Mingdong narrowed his eyes and looked at Gu Erdi with a dangerous light.

Gu Erdi suddenly remembered that his eldest brother said he hated threats from others the most.

He scratched his head and head anxiously and explained: "Brother, this is not a threat, this is a request."

If I don't send him away, I really won't be able to sleep peacefully today.

A habit brought about by the end of the world, Gu Mingdong could not allow himself to sleep without a pair of eyes watching him.

He simply sat up and looked at his brother condescendingly: "So what are you asking for?"

Gu Erdi rubbed his hands. If he hadn't been so good-looking, this action would have been extremely obscene.

"Well, brother...can you teach me that."

"Which one?"

Gu Erdi made gestures with his hands and feet: "That's it. With one click, you can kill such a big wild boar. Can you teach me?"

Without waiting for Gu Mingdong to answer, he continued: "When I learn how to do it, I don't need to work hard, big brother, I will go up the mountain to kill pigs for you to eat every day."

That smile looked so sincere.

Gu Mingdong laughed. He relied on his supernatural powers to kill pigs. If this stupid brother wanted to learn, he had to reincarnate first and go to the future to experience the apocalypse.

However, when his thoughts changed, Gu Mingdong did not refuse directly. Although Gu Mingnan and Wang Mazi parted ways, the possibility of that happening in the future was infinitely small, but this kid was stubborn and might be deceived again.

Instead of doing this, let him find something to do, lest he get too busy and cause trouble.

Having made up his mind, Gu Mingdong looked at his younger brother with a kind expression of caring for out-of-school children: "Anan, if someone else comes to ask this question, I will definitely not be able to teach you, but you are different. You are my biological brother. You want to learn?" That's not impossible."

Gu Mingnan's eyes gleamed, like a donkey that saw a carrot.

Gu Mingdong smiled slightly: "Learning kung fu is hard, and you have to avoid people. It won't be of much use if you learn it. Are you sure you want to learn it?"

Brother Gu was already busy nodding his head, as enthusiastic as a chicken pecking at rice: "Yes, I'm not afraid of hard work."

Gu Mingdong nodded, patted his brother on the shoulder and said, "Then we'll start tomorrow. It's too late today. You should go back and rest first."

Only then did Gu Erdi agree to leave. When he reached the door, he suddenly turned back and looked at Gu Mingdong hesitantly.

Gu Mingdong paused for a moment and thought to himself, did the donkey realize that he was deceiving him?

As a result, the next moment, Gu Erdi asked in a low voice: "Brother, if you teach me, will I have to call you master in the future?"

Pffff€€€€Gu Mingdong was so embarrassed that he didn't laugh on the spot. In his heart, he felt that this silly brother was quite cute. He said with a serious face, "Master, let it go. This is a new society and we don't want to do this."

Gu Erdi breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "That's good. I also feel that calling me eldest brother brings me closer."

After finally sending his brother away, Gu Mingdong shook his head and lay back on the bed.

There was some draft in the house, but it was still very warm under the quilt. After eating, breathing the fresh air and listening to the chirping of insects and birds in the quiet night, Gu Mingdong felt that his small life was quite beautiful.
