Siheyuan: Bringing Warehouses to 1959

Chapter 195: Is it against discipline to go home for the New Year?

After confirming that there was no reply, Zeng Wangcai couldn't help but worry that something might have happened at home, so he called to ask.

But it is not easy to call someone these days. No one in the entire courtyard has a telephone at home. The only two places he can think of are the steel rolling mill and the street office.

No doubt, steel mills are ruled out first.

Zeng Wangcai called the Jiaodaokou Street Office, found Director Zhang, and asked Director Zhang to help find his father to answer the phone.

When he made this call, it was already the second day after he returned to the division headquarters. His father Zeng Youqian was not at home, so he had no choice but to call the Peking University Logistics Department again and trouble Fatty Zheng to notify Lin Huyang.

Fortunately, Lin Huyang is here.

From Lin Huyang, Zeng Wangcai learned that nothing had happened at home, they were just isolated, and Zhang Xiuzhi had returned to her hometown, so she did not reply.

He felt it was a bit weird, so he asked his brothers to visit his home more often recently to prevent his house from being robbed.

After making the call, Zeng Wangcai went to the division headquarters to find the division commander Chen Hong. It had been decided before that the first platoon of the special operations team would be directly under the division headquarters, and no other leader was assigned to them, so if he had any problems, he could only find Chen Hong.

"Report!" Zeng Wangcai shouted report at the door of Chen Hong's office.

"Come in..." Chen Hong looked up. "It's not even a month yet, and you're so confident? According to Liu Youren's report, your progress is not good. Are you embarrassed to tell him about the difficulties you have?"

Liu Youren was right. Chen Hong attached great importance to the completion of Zeng Wangcai and his team's first mission. In addition to the honor of the 70th Division, Chen Hong knew some things that Liu Youren was not aware of.

Chen Hong is an old subordinate of Old Man Yang. It was not easy for him to work his way up from a regiment in his early years to where he is today.

Therefore, even though Old Man Yang did not explain much to Chen Hong about Zeng Wangcai's affairs, Chen Hong could still see that Old Man Yang valued Zeng Wangcai. As long as it did not violate the regulations, Chen Hong did not mind giving Zeng Wangcai some convenience.

"Report to the division commander, there is no difficulty in completing the task." Zeng Wangcai replied. He knew that Liu Youren would definitely report yesterday.

"No difficulty? Then do you have something else to do? Sit down!"

"Yes!"

Zeng Wangcai sat down, talked about the personnel issue that Old Man Yang had promised, and asked if there was any progress.

When Chen Hong heard Zeng Wangcai's question, he laughed and said, "It's you. Let's try someone else. You made another trip for this. It seems that you are really confident in the mission and have already completed it."

His words contained a lot of information, implicitly criticizing Zeng Wangcai for making a fuss out of nothing and saying that he should use the radio to contact him.

In addition, Zeng Wangcai was also mentioned for his special privilege. No one else would be treated so favorably by the division.

"Thank you, Master!"

I feel at ease, just waiting for someone to come, and the family’s quality of life can be guaranteed again.

"No need to thank me, completing the mission is more important than anything else!"

"I understand, Commander. Don't worry, I will complete the mission."

"Is there anything else?"

"That's all... No, there's one more question... Is it against discipline to go home for the New Year?"

......

Chengdu, Red Star State-owned Hotel.

Zhang Xiuzhi was wearing a new dress, all of which were made for her by Zeng Youqian, and she was wearing cloth shoes with embroidered flowers on the surface.

Throughout her life, no matter which city she was in, she lived a good life.

There were four dishes and one soup on the eight-immortals table in front of me, a combination of three meat dishes and two vegetable dishes, which cost a total of two dollars and fifty-four cents, which was quite luxurious.

It was dinner time and there were many people in the restaurant. The customers were curious about how Zhang Xiuzhi could lavishly order so many dishes by herself.

But Zhang Xiuzhi didn't eat a single bite, she was waiting for someone.

After her household registration problem was solved, she got a letter of introduction from the street office and took a train back to her hometown in Chengdu. Along the way, she thought of the hardships of walking and hitchhiking, and it was hard not to feel emotional.

In just a few months, her life changed dramatically.

These changes were partly due to her own efforts, but she had to admit that the biggest reason was Zeng Wangcai.

This time she came back, she wanted to clean up the housework.

To be honest, although she had a strong hatred for her father, the bond between father and daughter could not be cut off so easily. She still wanted to take a look to see if her father could turn back.

She did not go home to live, but stayed in a guesthouse with a letter of introduction. She went back alone and made an appointment with her father to meet here at noon today.

She can still remember that her stepmother became jealous when she saw how different she had become.

The four dishes and one soup on the table were all ordered by Zhang Xiuzhi for her father, and they were all her father's favorite dishes.

In addition to the dishes, she also prepared three hundred yuan.

The core of Zeng Wangcai's team is Zeng Wangcai. Apart from him, the one who made the biggest contribution is Zhang Xiuzhi.

Of all the team's income, Zhang Xiuzhi's contribution was more than 300 yuan, but she did not listen to Zeng Wangcai and use 800 yuan to solve the family's problems.

Outside the restaurant, a middle-aged couple with two country children stood not far away.

This couple is Zhang Xiuzhi’s biological father and stepmother.

The man’s name is Zhang Zhilin (that’s the name, so what), the woman’s name is not important, she is just a minor supporting role.

"Mom, why don't we go in yet? I'm hungry!" A child about the same age as Banggeng said with his head raised.

"Wait a minute!" The woman impatiently sent her son away. "Zhilin, look at the way she went back. Does she still take me, her mother, seriously? She didn't even look at me. Did she give you any money?"

"No, didn't your family ask you to search the house? What did you find?" Zhang Zhilin glanced in the direction of the hotel. "Xiuzhi didn't allow you to come, but you insisted on coming. If you make her angry, you won't get anything and you'll cry."

"You're her father, why are you afraid of her? I think she must be doing well in Beijing, otherwise how could she dress like this? Talk to her and ask her to leave the clothes behind. I'll alter them for the second and third children."

"Okay, okay, I'll tell you later."

In the words of Chengdu, Zhang Zhilin is a henpecked man who is completely controlled by women.

This time Zhang Xiuzhi asked him to come alone, obviously because she didn't want to see the woman who abused him, and it was also a way of giving him a chance.

But Zhang Zhilin couldn't control himself, and told the woman all the love and favors left by the old man. The woman then kept asking about how the Zeng family was doing in the old city.

Zhang Zhilin didn't know much, and his impression was still that the Zeng family lived in the countryside with only coarse food. When the woman heard this, she lost interest and thought about other ways to gain benefits.

"Xiao Huang will be here soon, don't do the same as last time!" The woman repeatedly reminded Zhang Zhilin, "The second son's job still depends on Xiao Huang. Xiao Huang really likes Xiuzhi. He has a good job, and the family of four has stable jobs for everyone..."

The second brother the woman mentioned was also there. He was thin and looked about the same age as Liu Guangtian.

Zhang Zhilin nodded obediently.

At this time, a fat young man with a round head...he can't be considered a young man, his face is full of pits and pits, he must be over 30 years old.

If Zeng Wangcai saw this person, he would definitely think of Meng Qinghe in the miracle doctor Xilaile.

"Uncle..." The man came over in a big cotton-padded jacket, running like a ball, "Xiuzhi is back. As soon as I heard about it, I immediately divorced and rushed over..."
