Siheyuan: Superintendent at the beginning, wife Reba!

The days passed like this, and in a blink of an eye it was the end of 1967.

There is no big difference between the Spring Festival without a holiday and working days. This year has been very difficult, but every household in the courtyard still has a meal of dumplings.

Years later, it was 1968.

The first half of the year was in full swing, and Jiaodaokou Police Station began to take a long vacation again for some reasons.

Reba had no choice but to return home and continue taking care of her baby full-time.

The two children of the Zhang family are growing older, and Zheng Juan is also steadily studying for the technical secondary school entrance examination next year.

Silly Zhu and Liu Lan are in an orderly relationship, although Liu Lan also has two children, one of whom is a boy.

But she didn't suck Si Zhu's blood like Qin Huairu. The two were in love like normal unmarried men and women. Sometimes he would even spend his own money to make clothes for Shazhu and buy some small things.

This moved Sha Zhu very much, and he wanted to marry Liu Lan. However, due to the obstruction of He Daqing, it has not been possible.

Shazhu was distressed and kept trying to figure out how to deal with this matter, but with little success. He wanted to ask Zhang Chengfei for help, but found that Zhang Chengfei was even busier now.

Silly Zhu felt that a true brother should not add burden to a busy brother, so he planned to find a solution on his own.

Zhang Chengfei is indeed very busy, although he doesn't have to go to the Jiaodaokou Police Station and sub-bureau.

But he still shuttles back and forth between the streets of the rolling mill and the rolling mill every day.

The steel rolling mill entered into drastic reforms. Under his promotion, two branches were opened and more than 2 jobs were created. The production capacity of the steel rolling mill has also been greatly increased, and the workers have regular work hours and welfare benefits.

In the second half of the year, Zhang Chengfei began to promote the operation of the bearing factory. In his plan, the bearing factory should take a precise route, and it is best to export to earn foreign exchange.

After seeing Zhang Chengfei's report, the Ministry of Metallurgy took his ideas very seriously. A piece of land was specially circled and scientific researchers were sent over.

Throughout the second half of 1967, Zhang Chengfei lived and ate together with scientific researchers, working hard for the new factory.

And these also made his prestige in the steel rolling mill and branch factory further surpass Fang Changyang.

In the blink of an eye, [-] passed.

[-] arrived as promised with heavy steps.

During this year, Yan Jiefang finally passed the driver's license and became a driver at the steel rolling mill. He was usually responsible for driving Zhang Chengfei and handling some chores.

Zheng Juan failed the technical secondary school exam for the first time last year and is preparing for the second exam.

Zhang Chengfei's children are older and have been weaned. Zhang Chengfei hired three aunts to take care of them, and Reba is pregnant with her second child. Raise your baby with peace of mind at home every day.

The old lady's health is as good as ever, and she takes care of her two great-grandchildren for a while every day.

The bearing factory was finally built, and in June, the first batch of precision bearings began to be exported. Everything is starting to go on the right track, which also means that Zhang Chengfei's expansion plan for the steel rolling mill has begun to bear fruit.

Next, it’s time to take a breath.

In July, the Workers', Peasants and Soldiers' University began enrolling students. Under Zhang Chengfei's arrangement, Er Gouzi successfully entered Yenching University and became a glorious college student.

As for the subject he studied, Ergouzi chose architecture.

At the end of [-], the first snow fell in Sijiucheng in December.

This time the snow fell earlier than in previous years, which is destined to be a cold winter this year.

But for ordinary people, what is more important than the cold winter is the instructions for educated young people to go to the mountains and countryside for re-education.

This is an era where having many children means you are blessed. Being able to have children and having many children is good and glorious.

Therefore, the average family has two or three children, and some may have four, five, six or seven children.

According to the supreme directive, only one child from an ordinary urban family without a job can be left behind, and the others must go to the countryside to get training in the vast world.

The arrival of this news alarmed the Yan Bugui family, Jia family, Liu family and other families with school-age children in the courtyard.

Although the eldest son of the Yan family has a job and is married, the second son has also been assigned a job in the steel rolling mill.

But Yan Jiekuang, the third child, and Yan Jiedi, the fourth child, are old enough to go to the countryside. It's okay to say that Yan Jiekuang graduated from high school, but Yan Jiedi just graduated from junior high school and was only 15 years old.

Liu Guangfu from the Liu family is in the first grade of high school, Xiaomao from the backyard is in the second grade, and Bangge is in the third grade.

For some reasons, these students, regardless of whether they are in the junior year or senior year, all graduated at the same time this year and then went to the countryside.

Many years later, they had a common name: "Lao Sanjian."

The old Yan family looked sad for a long time. Finally, the third uncle sighed helplessly, and the third aunt packed the children's luggage while crying.

The same goes for the Liu family and the Mao family.

Not to mention Bangge, he just graduated from junior high school this year.

Originally, Qin Huairu had been making arrangements for him to find a job in the summer, but according to the latest policy, he had to go to the countryside directly after the New Year.

At this time, the atmosphere in Jia's house in the middle courtyard was solemn.

Qin Huairu, Jia Zhang and Uncle Qin were sitting in the room.

Jia Zhang observes the nose with eyes, and the nose observes the heart, but does not speak.

Uncle Qin took two puffs of cigarette from time to time, and after a long while he said: "Huairu, it's not that I don't want to help you, it's just that the current policy is like this... Not only your family, but also mine Several of my grandchildren are also going to the countryside."

The implication is that I can't even take care of my own grandson, so how can I care about someone with a surname like Bangge?

Qin Huairu rubbed her eyes that were red from crying, and wanted to fight for it: "Uncle, can't you really think of a way? Our boss is only 15 years old, so he is alone in a rural area where he is unfamiliar... ....”

"Life in the countryside is hard. He is just a single seedling in our old Jia family's thousands of hectares of land. If he suffers any hardship there, how can I explain to Dongxu when I go underground..."

As he spoke, he looked pitifully at Jia Zhang who was standing aside.

"Mom, if Banggeng really can't stay in the city, if something happens to him when he gets to the countryside, think about what you should do to explain to my dad when you get underground?"

Jia Zhang glanced at him and lowered her head guiltily.

Frankly speaking, she is living a happy life with Uncle Qin now and doesn't really want to interfere with the Jia family's affairs.

What's more, since the last incident about the gold ring, Banggeng and her have completely broken up. When the two met in the courtyard, they just pretended to be strangers.

But Qin Huairu had reached this point, and it would be inappropriate for her not to say anything.

After thinking for a while, he said dryly. "Qin Huairu, don't make things too difficult for your father-in-law. He really has no choice. If you beg him here, you might as well go and beg Zhang Chengfei."

Zhang Chengfei is now the second-in-command of the steel rolling mill. As long as he can find a way to arrange a job for Banggeng, then Banggeng will not have to go to the countryside according to the policy.
