Chapter 599 1980, The Zhou family went home for the New Year

"Brother Xiaoguang, Lu Chuan, Tang Xiangyang, is it you?"

Zheng Juan was very surprised to see the three people standing at the door. He naturally knew Cai Xiaoguang, and he had come to the house twice and sent a lot of things.

On the contrary, it was the first time for Lu Chuan and Tang Xiangyang to come. Zheng Juan could recognize them because they had been here when they got married.

"Zheng Juan."

Cai Xiaoguang smiled and pointed at Lu Chuan and Tang Xiangyang: "When I came here, I happened to meet them. They said they came to see you, but they never came, and they were still looking, so I brought them here."

Zhou Chen came over when he heard the movement, and was also surprised to see the three of them: "Cai Xiaoguang, Lu Chuan, Tang Xiangyang, come in and sit down."

Cai Xiaoguang is fine, they are quite frequent, and have met several times since they came to university, but this is the first time for Lu Chuan and Tang Xiangyang to visit.

Both Lu Chuan and Tang Xiangyang were admitted to Yanjing University, one majored in literature and the other academic theory.

"Lu Chuan, Xiangyang, how did you find this place?"

Zhou Chen was very puzzled. He lived here and few people knew about it. How did they know about it?
Lu Chuan replied: "We have come to Yanjing, but we have not lost contact with Qu Shuji. I wrote to her before, and Qu Shuji told us about this place in the letter, and let us take a look. Let's see how you're doing."

"Aunt Qu."

Zhou Chen was relieved, he had also contacted Ma Shouchang and Qu Shuji, and wrote four letters within a year, but he didn't expect Qu Shuji to let Lu Chuan and the others come to see him.

Tang Xiangyang said: "Bingkun, after I came to Yanjing, I realized the huge gap between my family and here. You are better than us, and you even brought your whole family to Yanjing, and you still live in such a good place."

Zhou Chen waved his hand: "What is this? The house is just rented. Is your school also on holiday?"

"Yeah, it's all on vacation, Bingkun, when are you going back to Jichun?"

Tang Xiangyang asked Zhou Chen, he was naturally planning to go to his hometown for the New Year, and because of the crowds, he wanted to go with Zhou Chen and the others.

Zhou Chen said: "We won't have an auspicious spring this year, so we will celebrate the New Year in Yanjing."

"Not going back?"

Tang Xiangyang and Lu Chuan were very surprised, even Cai Xiaoguang was also surprised. He came here today because he wanted to ask Zhou Chen when he would go back and be together.

But now Zhou Chen didn't come back to Jichun.

"Yeah, our old man won't go home for the New Year this year, and our family happens to be in Yanjing again. It's too troublesome to go back and forth, so we won't go back."

"Oh, it's really troublesome to run back and forth, and Lu Chuan doesn't go back to celebrate the New Year." Tang Xiangyang pointed at Lu Chuan and said.

Lu Chuan: "I don't need to go home, I'm the only one left at home, and I'm alone when I go back, so why go back, I can still live in the school dormitory in Yanjing, and I can save some money. "

Lu Chuan is also a person with a miserable life experience. Because he is a family member of a martyr, the school takes good care of him. Even if he is on holiday, he can live in the dormitory.

Zhou Chen looked at Cai Xiaoguang and asked, "Cai Xiaoguang, when you go back to Jichun, you can go with Xiangyang."

Cai Xiaoguang replied straightforwardly: "Okay, I was planning to go back the day after tomorrow, Tang Xiangyang, then shall we go buy tickets together tomorrow?"

Tang Xiangyang immediately said happily: "That must be good."

"Everyone don't leave tonight, we finally get together and stay home for dinner tonight."

Under Zhou Chen's warm invitation, the three of them stayed and had a lively meal.

This year, Zhou Chen also sent letters to Xiao Guoqing and Sun Chanchao, but they didn't say much in their letters.

From Tang Xiangyang's mouth, Zhou Chen learned a lot of news. For example, Cao Debao was promoted to the workshop director of the dregs workshop of the soy sauce factory. After they left, the dregs workshop recruited a few more people.

What they emphasized was that Qiao Chunyan, who was promoted to the district women's director before, was kicked out after only two years, and now she has become a pedicure worker in a public bath.

Ma Shouchang and Qu Xiuzhen are in very good physical condition, and they are full of energy every day.

The lumber factory where Sun Chanchao and Xiao Guoqing stayed was getting worse and worse...

Zhou Chen rested at home for two days before going to work in the hospital. Not long after, Hao Dongmei came to Yanjing from Jichun.

Zhou Bingyi and Hao Dongmei have already discussed that they will visit Yanjing first, and then return to Jichun on the second day of the Lunar New Year to spend the New Year with the Hao family and his wife.

As the Chinese New Year approached, the emergency department of the hospital became even busier. Zhou Chen didn't even have time to rest, and he had been working in the hospital all the time. On New Year's Eve, he had dinner at home, and then he was on duty all night. The next morning Just go back.

…………

"Grandma, take this with you too, I want to take it back to play."

Feng Yue took Li Suhua's hand coquettishly, and then quietly stuffed the toy into Li Suhua's luggage bag with a flattering expression.

Li Suhua nodded Feng Yue's little head: "Why do you bring so many toys, take them back, and bring them back again, what a trouble."

Feng Yue shook Li Suhua's hand vigorously: "Grandma, don't bother, don't bother."

Zheng Guangming came over at this time, and said with a smile: "Auntie, just carry it for me later. This time, I will stay for 20 days when I go back. Bring them some toys, and they will have something to play with when they go back."

"You know how to get used to them."

If you want to talk about who spends the longest time with the children in this family, apart from Zheng Juan, it is undoubtedly Zheng Guangming.

Ever since Zheng Juan married into the Zhou family and the Zheng family's old mother passed away, Guangming has been living in the Zhou family. The three children grew up under his support. Although they are not real uncles, they are not much worse than real uncles.

Zheng Guangming pushed his glasses and chuckled.

A year later, with Zhou Chen's help, his eyes have undergone surgery and he can see things.

It's just that I just had the operation not long ago, and my eyes are still relatively fragile and can't stand strong light, so I usually wear my eyes, and I have to wear sunglasses when I go out.

But this has already satisfied Zheng Guangming. Compared with seeing things in the past, his eyes are getting better and better now. What is there to be dissatisfied with?

What's more, Zhou Chen also said that as long as he persists in recovering, he will get better and better in the future.

It is precisely because his eyes began to recover and he could see things that Zheng Guangming's energy and spirit have become different now.

In the past, he gave people a dull and lifeless look; but now, he has regained the vigor of a young man, with a smile on his face all the time.

"Yueyue, go and see if your uncle and uncle have cleaned up."

Li Suhua gave Feng Yue an order, and Feng Yue immediately ran to Zhou Chen's room.

"Uncle, uncle, aunt, are you all right?"

Now it is 1980, and in a blink of an eye, Zhou Chen and the others have been studying in Yanjing for two years. Last year they spent the New Year in Yanjing. This year, because Zhou Zhigang had a holiday, the family packed up and prepared to go to Jichun’s hometown for the New Year.

Two years have passed, Zhou Chen and the children are fine, but Li Suhua and Zheng Juan miss their hometown very much, and they want to go back, and this time they can finally get their wish.

It was precisely because of going home for the New Year that Zhou Chen turned down his work in the hospital, and Zhou Bingyi was also on vacation, and the family planned to go back for the New Year.

Zhou Bingyi only stayed here for one night, and he didn't have much to pack, so he was the first one to do it.

When he walked out of the room and saw Li Suhua's big bags, he laughed and said, "Mom, you are going to evacuate the whole house."

Li Suhua gave him a white look: "What do you know, these must be taken back. These two bags are Yanjing local specialties I bought. Your father has never been to Yanjing, let him taste Yanjing too." Beijing's souvenirs; and this, which is filled with the sweater I knitted for your dad, and the clothes and shoes Bingkun and Juaner bought for him, and this..."

Zhou Bingyi was overwhelmed when he heard that, anyway, according to what Li Suhua said, he had to bring everything with him.

"I asked Bingkun, all he bought were sleeping berths, so don't be afraid to bring extra things."

Zhou Bingyi shook his head and sighed: "Bingkun is really rich, and he bought six sleeper tickets at once."

There are five adults in their family, and there is Cai Xiaoguang who is traveling with them. As for the three children Zhou Rui and Feng Yue, they don't need to buy tickets.

Li Suhua sighed: "It's a pity, Rong'er and the others won't go with us."

It has been more than a year since what happened back then, and Li Suhua didn't hold grudges against Zhou Rong. Thinking of Zhou Rong not going back with them this time, she felt a little disappointed.

Zhou Bingyi said: "She just didn't go with us. She was able to go home a year ago. After all, it was not easy for Feng Huacheng. It is impossible for her to go to college so many days in advance."

Li Suhua just sighed, and didn't mean to blame, she also knew that it was not easy for her daughter and son-in-law, especially her daughter's temper, alas.

"This time our family is going to be reunited again, Bingyi, when your father comes home, you should talk to him carefully, don't get angry with Bingkun, can't the family have a good New Year? Every time there will be trouble unhappy."

Thinking of the previous two Chinese New Years, when Zhou Zhigang and Zhou Chen had a quarrel, Li Suhua felt uncomfortable. She didn't want this time to be the same as the previous year.

Zhou Bingyi patted his chest and promised: "Mom, don't worry, I will definitely convince our dad this time, and Bingkun also promised me that he will not fight against Dad like the last two times."

"If that's the case, then for the best."

Zhou Chen came out of the room and asked, "Mom, brother, have you all packed up, packed up, we are ready to go."

"Mom and I are packed up and we can go."

"Then let's go, the car is below, everything has been arranged."

It was quite far from the train station, so it was impossible to carry so many things, so Zhou Chen asked Wan Shibing for help and found two cars.

There are no vans these days, otherwise a van would do the trick.

Several adults carried bags in their hands, and brought the children downstairs together.

"Bingkun, here."

As soon as he reached the stairs, Zhou Chen heard Wan Shibing's call. He turned his head and saw that Wan Shibing was not far away, and behind him were two cars.

Today's cars are not something ordinary people can find, that is, Wan Shibing's family is not well-connected, otherwise, even if Zhou Chen paid, it would be difficult to find two cars at once.

So Zhou Chen really misses the modern society, as long as you have money, you can't find any car.

"Old Wan, please excuse me."

Wan Shibing punched Zhou Chen: "Between us brothers, if we talk about this, we will see each other. When you come back, just treat me to a drink."

"That's for sure."

With the help of Wan Shibing, Zhou Chen's family arrived at the train station very quickly. This time they returned earlier, but Yanjing is Yanjing after all, and even in the 80s, there was still a huge flow of people.

The way back this time was much more lively than the last time. Someone actually wanted to steal their things, but Zhou Chen was very vigilant and found out in time, so there was no loss.

Zhou Chen wanted to arrest him, but that person was obviously a habitual offender, and he rushed into the crowd very quickly. Zhou Chen couldn't do anything if he wanted to arrest him. He was really helpless.

What happened at the train station reminded him involuntarily of a movie he had seen called A World Without Thieves.

I don't know if the real world is as exaggerated as in the movie, but now that his whole family is in the car, there is really no need to cause more trouble for a moment of anger.

Acting chivalrously and righteously also depends on the situation.

After spending nearly twenty hours, Zhou Chen and his party finally returned to Jichun.

After returning to Jichun, he naturally went straight to the house that Zhou Chen bought. Fortunately, the house was built very well. Even though it was two years later, Zhou Chen asked Sun Chachao to have a look, and there was no problem.

And last month, he wrote a letter to the old leader Shao Jingwen, asking him to help find someone to clean up the house.

When he went to Yanjing two years ago, he deliberately left a key for Shao Jingwen, and asked him to take care of it when he was free.

When Zhou Chen and the others returned home, the house was still clean, and it was obvious that it had been cleaned.

However, Li Suhua and Zheng Juan, who hadn't come back for two years, didn't even care about taking a break, so they started cleaning the room, from the inside to the outside, even the yard. The family was busy for several hours before cleaning it in front of them.

In the next few days, Li Shuhua and Zheng Juan still cleaned at home, while Zhou Bingyi went to Hao's house to accompany Hao Dongmei.

Zhou Chen went to Shao Jingwen's house first, and had a meal with the old leader to catch up.

Two years ago, since he left, Shao Jingwen took the initiative to retreat to the second line, and now he has become a leader in the logistics department of the publishing house, responsible for the logistics work, which can be regarded as retirement for the elderly.

Seeing Shao Jingwen again, Zhou Chen obviously felt that he was a lot older and fatter, but his spirit was not bad.

After seeing Shao Jingwen, Zhou Chen went to the provincial compound to visit Ma Shouchang and Qu Xiuzhen, and he took Zheng Juan and the three children with him.

This made Ma Shouchang and Qu Xiuzhen happy. They rarely had visitors at home, and even if they did, most of them came to ask for help.

Zhou Rui is their grandson now, but they are relatives, so the meaning is naturally different.

Zhou Chen's family stayed at Ma Shouchang's house from morning to night, and even ate two meals. During this period, Ma Shouchang and Qu Xiuzhen kept smiling and were very happy.

In the evening, Zhou Chen came to the gate of the timber factory.

Over the years, the gate of the timber factory seems to have remained unchanged, but Zhou Chen remembers that when he came to the timber factory to wait for Sun Chanchao and Xiao Guoqing, the inside and outside of the timber factory gate were cleaned, including the house number. spotless.

But at this time, the inside and outside of the gate looked very bleak, with debris flying everywhere, and it was desolate.

Obviously the factory is still there, but it doesn't look much different from closing down. How long has it been?

Workers in twos and threes came out, no enthusiasm could be seen on their faces, and some were just numb.

Zhou Chen shook his head. In this state, it's no wonder that the timber factory didn't close down. That's because it's a state-owned factory. If it were a private company, it would have gone bankrupt and settled.

After waiting for a long time, Zhou Chen saw Sun Chanchao and Xiao Guoqing who came out wearing factory uniforms and pushing bicycles.

"Catch up, National Day."

Sun Chanchao and Xiao Guoqing were discussing whether the factory could pay wages normally during the Chinese New Year this year, when they suddenly heard someone shouting, they immediately raised their heads.

"Kun'er?"

When the two saw Zhou Bingkun, they felt incredible, then rubbed their eyes vigorously, and after confirming, they walked over quickly.

Throwing the bicycle to the side, the two of them stepped down one by one, and gave Zhou Chen a hug.

"Kun'er, you are finally willing to come back, kid. Two years, two years in one go, I thought you went to the capital to live a good life, don't you remember us brothers?"

"It's good to be back, our brothers can finally be reunited."

Both of them showed their true feelings, and Zhou Chen was also very happy. He has also known these two people for more than ten years. Although everyone has their own shortcomings and ideas, it is sincere to show brotherly affection.

"Let's go, the first time we meet in two years, of course we need to have a good meal with good wine and food."

Sun Chanchao and Xiao Guoqing hurriedly said: "Kun'er, we must treat you for this meal."

"We brothers don't need to be so clear."

"That won't work, this meal must be ours, let's go."

…………

On Lunar New Year's Eve, Zhou Chen and Zhou Bingyi were waiting near the train station platform. Today is the day Zhou Zhigang returns home.

"Bingkun, don't forget what Mom and I told you. When I see Dad later, be more enthusiastic and calm down. Did you hear me?"

Seeing his father soon, Zhou Bingyi was both happy and a little nervous.

Naturally, he was happy because he could see his father again, but he was nervous because he was afraid that Zhou Chen and Zhou Zhigang would have sex again.

Zhou Chen said impatiently: "I see, big brother, you have said it dozens of times along the way, and I can hear calluses in my ears, can you give me a rest?"

Zhou Bingyi said impatiently: "It's not enough to just hear it, you have to listen to it."

"Okay, I'm afraid of you, I promise you, I promise to have a better attitude later, and I will never quarrel with our dad again, okay?"

Zhou Chen was very helpless, he didn't want to quarrel with Zhou Zhigang at all, he was not really a wronged child, it was just that he was always unhappy with Zhou Zhigang's actions.

In the final analysis, he didn't fully take on the identity of his son in front of Zhou Zhigang, but looked at Zhou Zhigang more from the eyes of a bystander, feeling that he was partial.

If there is really much hatred, it is not at all, as long as Zhou Zhigang is not angry with him, he will not confront Zhou Zhigang.
