Siheyuan: Happy Life of Jia Zhang Family

"Dad, you need to change your temper. You start to use violence and never let others speak," Zhang Dazheng said to his father with some dissatisfaction.

"Hurry up and tell me, or I'll beat you up if you keep talking nonsense," Zhang Zhiling said loudly.

"I don't want to talk to you at all. Brother Da Biao felt that some bad guys were going to sabotage the workshop, so he arranged for three of us to wait in the workshop at night. As a result, the bad guys really came, and we went over and hit them with steel chisels, broke one of their arms, and caught him. It turned out that he was a spy." Zhang Dazheng paused.

"Spy?" Zhang Zhiling stood up.

"Fourth Grandpa, of course they are spies. The people from the technical department of my factory who called taxis were lurking in the factory to cause trouble," said Zhang Shouan.

"In fact, Brother Da Biao had already discovered his superiors and accomplices, and told the factory leaders, who arranged for the security personnel to capture two more enemy spies. The factory wanted to reward him, but Brother Da Biao didn't want it and gave the credit to the three of us. The factory recruited us and arranged us in the new workshop. We came back to stamp the documents this time, and after we are converted to regular employees, we will have to come back again to transfer our grain and oil relations and our household registration," Zhang Dazheng finished.

"Third brother, are you recruiting workers?" Zhang Zhiling had already grabbed his youngest son's hand.

"Dad, we're recruiting. The recruitment form is in the bag. We'll get it stamped when we come back," said Zhang Dazheng.

"Da Biao, what can you say about me?" Zhang Zhiling was a little excited. He was a village leader and of course knew how difficult it was to move to the city. It was not easy to become a collective worker, let alone to join a large state-owned enterprise. Zhang Dazheng was his youngest son, who was born when he was in his thirties. The child was introverted, not good at studying, and not strong in body. He had always been worried about his future. Now, he had joined a large state-owned unit and he could rest assured.

"What are you talking about? Isn't he my brother? We have the same great-grandfather, and they are brave. Fourth uncle, it's fate," said Zhang Dabao.

"Great, great. Let's have a drink. Is the food ready?" Zhang Zhiling was a little at a loss.

"Okay, now you understand. You're not angry anymore?" Zhang Zhiling's wife brought the dishes to the table.

"I'm not angry. I don't like to be angry." Zhang Zhiling laughed awkwardly twice.

"Aunt Si, let's sit down and have a drink together. You will be happy to hear that." Zhang Dabao pulled Aunt Si to sit at the table.

"What's the matter? Will I be happy to hear it?" Fourth Aunt also became interested.

"You should drink something too. Thanks to Dabiao, Dazheng, Shouan and Shouying were able to stay in the factory and become real workers," Zhang Zhiling said, then he picked up the glass of wine and drank it all.

"What does a real worker mean?" Fourth Aunt asked her son again.

"Fourth grandma, you will work in the factory in the future and will not go home to farm, just like Aunt Cuihua," said Zhang Shouying.

"Dabao, is it true?" Fourth Aunt asked Zhang Dabao again.

"Of course it's true. When we come back, don't we just get a stamp? We stamp the form and submit it to the factory, and then we become workers. After a few months, we'll be converted to regular employees, go home, transfer our household registration, change our grain and oil relations, and eat commercial grain," Zhang Dabao explained further.

"God has eyes, I have to burn some incense for my ancestors." Fourth Aunt went to the kitchen without eating, then kowtowed and muttered. When she came back, the five people in the room had almost finished eating.

"Let's go home and talk about it first, and then go to the village office to get the stamp. We will leave in the evening. I'll go to the foot of the mountain to take a look," Zhang Dabao said to the three people.

I rode my motorcycle to the vicinity of my ancestral grave, parked on the side of the road, and came to the small house where I had lived for a while. Looking at the furnishings inside, which were exactly the same as when I went down the mountain, an unforgettable memory came to my mind.

I came out of the house and came to my parents' grave. I felt sad. Deep down, I thought of my parents in this life, and then I thought of my parents in the next life. Then tears blurred my eyes.

He sat in front of his parents' grave until the sun was about to set. He thought of the three of them waiting for him in the village office, so he bid farewell to his parents and ancestors and came to the village office.

At this time, the news that Zhang Dazheng, Zhang Shouan and Zhang Shouying had become formal workers had spread throughout the village, which directly led to the inability to carry out the road repair work this afternoon. Zhang Zhiling simply gave everyone an afternoon off.

"Second brother, have you really become a worker?" Zhang Dasong and his wife have asked this question at least twenty times, and then asked it again after a while.

"You and the eldest brother have done it this time." This was one of the few compliments Zhang Shouan heard from his parents, and he also praised his eldest brother as well.

"Mom, please take some time to send a message to Xiaohong in Zhengjia Village and talk things out. When I get a permanent job, I will come back and marry her," Zhang Shouan said to his mother.

"Shou'an, you are a formal worker of the state now, can't you find a better wife? Zheng Hong looks difficult to give birth to children," said Zhang Dasong's wife.

"I'll go and tell it myself." Zhang Shouan was silent. His opinion has never been important, but there was no room for negotiation on this matter. He would let his uncle take him out of the gate of Zhengjia Village and tell Xiaohong the good news in person.

"You can't go and tell them. Listen to me and find someone from the city. Look at Song Juan, the girl your brother found. Not only is she incompetent, she can't even have children. They've been married for several years, but they haven't even laid a egg," said Zhang Dasong's wife.

"Isn't my sister-in-law pregnant?" Zhang Shouan said.

"Pregnant? How come I didn't know? Your brother didn't tell me such a big thing. Is Zhang Shoucheng still a human being?" Zhang Dasong's wife started to get angry for no reason again.

"I'll go to the village office first. It's not good for my uncle to wait for me when he comes back." Zhang Shouan talked to his mother, left home, went to see his three houses, and then came to the village office.

At the entrance of the village, Zhang Shouying was telling everyone the details of how the three of them bravely captured the enemy spy, how the three of them ambushed, how they took action, and what they said at the time. After he processed it, he presented it to everyone.

When he talked about the interesting parts, he asked Zhang Dazheng to confirm it, which increased the authenticity of his words.

A group of people waited at the village gate for an hour, and then Zhang Dabao's motorcycle came over.

"Da Biao," "Seventh Uncle," "Brother Da Biao"

Zhang Dabao got out of the car, greeted the elders of the village, and briefly talked about the three people's promotion to regular employees. It was the three of them who caught the spies and performed great merits, and he helped a little. If they had not performed merits, no one could have made them regular employees. Then he brought the three people along.

"Uncle, stop at the entrance of Zhengjia Village. I have something to do in the village," said Zhang Shouan.

"Second brother, are you going to look for Sister-in-law Xiaohong?" Zhang Shouying asked.

"I wanted my mother to ask someone to smooth things over, but she didn't want to. She wanted me to find one from the city. Is that someone I can find a wife from the city? What should I say to them? I want to smooth things over with Xiaohong today, and I'll come back to marry her after I get a permanent job." Zhang Shouan's eyes were red.
