The counterattack begins with Fan Shengmei in Ode to Joy

Chapter 288 The Great Second Brother

Jin Yueji scolded: "You child, what are you embarrassed to say to us?"

She turned her head and said to Hao Shaomin: "Old Hao, I think the publishing house is good, the cultural unit, it's easy, there are not so many intrigues."

Hao Shaomin nodded and said, "Yes."

As the governor of a province, arranging a job for his son is a matter of one sentence.

Now that his son has his own intentions, the requirements are not too high for him, so he has no reason to object.

What made him most gratified was that his son was a measured person, and he didn't think about using his parents' power to pursue unrealistic benefits.

After talking about work, Jin Yueji didn't stop talking.

"Son, now that you've thought about your job, look, you're not too old..."

Zhuang Ziqiang suddenly had a headache, no task in the world could escape the fate of being urged to marry.

"Mom, there's no rush for this."

"Yes, yes, mother knows that you can't be in a hurry. You young people want to fall in love freely, but you are not young anymore. You are 35 this year. Whether it is because of the times or family reasons, it has delayed us. explain.

Now your dad and I are over 60, with a son like you, you can't make your parents wait too long.There are many old leaders and old colleagues around us. Let them help you get in touch tomorrow?Do you think it will work? "

Jin Yueji's tone was negotiable, but the longing in her and Hao Shaomin's eyes made Zhuang Ziqiang a little scared.

I always feel that Lao Tzu is going to become a ruthless reproductive machine.

When he was about to answer, Hao Dongmei and Zhou Bingyi came back from outside.

Zhuang Ziqiang got up quickly, "Dongmei, Bingyi, you are back!"

"Second brother!"

The two came back after having dinner at Zhou's house, and the family chatted in the living room for a while before returning to their respective rooms.

……

The next day was the 29th of the twelfth lunar month, and Jin Yueji was preparing dumpling fillings when she got up early.

Zhuang Ziqiang has gradually gotten used to everything in this family. Before he went downstairs to the kitchen, he could smell the stuffing of dumplings.

"It's not easy to eat dumplings filled with three delicacies in winter."

Hao Dongmei said: "The leeks were brought by Uncle Yang. My dad and I both love to eat dumplings stuffed with three delicacies. I didn't expect you, my second brother, to eat them too."

Zhuang Ziqiang shook his head and said, "Who doesn't like dumplings stuffed with three delicacies!"

The three laughed.

At this time, his father Hao Shaomin came down from the stairs, with a brisk smile on his face, "What are you talking about? So happy!"

"Speaking of making dumplings, will you participate?"

"Of course."

A family of four gathers in the kitchen to make dumplings, Zhuang Ziqiang makes noodles, Hao Shaomin rolls out the dough, Jin Yueji and Hao Dongmei make dumplings, and the dividends are clear.

The family talked and laughed.

Zhuang Ziqiang asked, "Why didn't you see Bingyi?"

"It's a rare reunion for their family, so they're going home," Hao Dongmei said.

Zhuang Ziqiang nodded, "It should."

Hao Dongmei observed the faces of the family members and saw that the atmosphere at home was good, so she said cautiously, "Dad, I have something to tell you."

"What's the matter?" Jin Yueji asked.

"I... I may not be able to have children."

The rolling pin in Hao Shaomin's hand stopped moving, "What's going on?"

Hao Dongmei told the whole story.

It turned out that when she went to the village of Longjiang Province to join the queue, she fell into the well in winter when she fetched water. Fortunately, the water in the well was not deep, but the problem was that she soaked in cold water for too long, which hurt her body and made her pregnant. Pregnant.

Hao Dongmei had told her mother about this matter long ago, and with her mother's help, she went to Yanjing to see many experts, but there was nothing she could do.

Because she was the only child in the family, she always felt that it would be a heavy blow if her father found out about it.

It's all right now, the second brother is back, and there is a boy in the family, so the big stone in Hao Dongmei's heart can be removed.

"The doctor in Yanjing is not good, you can go to Shanghai to see it! Dad will find some good experts for you, and we will look again."

"Dad! Moms from several of the best hospitals in Yanjing have contacted me, but they have nothing to do."

"What about the magic capital?"

"Is Shanghai better than Yanjing?"

Hao Shaomin was silent.

Hao Dongmei said after a while: "It's good now. The second brother is back, and the pressure on me is much less."

"Bang!" The rolling pin fell heavily on the panel, Hao Shaomin was rarely angry, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

The atmosphere in the kitchen froze for a moment.

Hao Dongmei said: "Dad, you have to admit that there are some incurable diseases in this world that doctors can't help."

"Dad, what Dongmei said is correct." Zhuang Ziqiang's voice suddenly sounded from the kitchen, and everyone's eyes turned to him, "We must respect the existence of objective facts."

The eyes of Hao Shaomin and Jin Yueji are a bit dim, they are staunch materialists, veteran party members for decades, how can they not understand this truth?

But knowing it is one thing, being able to accept it is another.

"but……"

Zhuang Ziqiang paused, and then said: "There is still a big gap between our country and the world's advanced level of medicine. It may be an incurable disease in our country, but it may be possible in foreign countries. Dongmei, don't be completely discouraged. In the future, when the second brother has money, I will send you abroad to see a doctor."

Zhuang Ziqiang's words seemed like tear gas, making both mother and Hao Dongmei's eyes red.

Mother Jin Yueji said: "What nonsense are you talking about, kid? You can come out of that country if you think of it?"

"Mom, for our family, going abroad is not difficult, but money is."

Zhuang Ziqiang said something leisurely.

Several people were silent, as Zhuang Ziqiang said, if you want to go abroad to see a doctor, you must go to a capitalist country.

Hao Dongmei wiped away her tears and said, "Second brother, don't worry about it. Bingyi and I have already accepted this fact."

"everything is possible."

In this era, the material life is poor, and even the conditions of the Hao family are not as comfortable as those of later generations in many aspects. This is caused by the general environment and has nothing to do with the specific conditions.

He was worrying about finding some reason to earn some money to improve his life after he was assigned to a cultural unit. Isn't there such a reason now?
In order to make money for her infertile sister, she went abroad for medical treatment!

What a grand reason!
What a great brother!
Feeling the resolute tone in Zhuang Ziqiang's words, the three members of the Hao family were moved.

Father Hao Shaomin also cheered up a lot, "That's right, it depends on people's wages. Dongmei, your mother and I paid 3 yuan in salary before, and then we can save some money to go abroad to see a doctor."

Zhuang Ziqiang said with a smile: "Dad, 3 yuan is not enough, if it is 30 yuan, it will be about the same."

Hao Shaomin gasped and glared at Zhuang Ziqiang.

Zhuang Ziqiang patted his chest, "Leave the remaining 27 to me!"

Tears welled up in Hao Dongmei's eyes, and she couldn't control it no matter what.

It's great to have such a family!
