Rebirth 1958: My Home is in Nanluoguxiang

While Chang Zhengyang was secretly complaining about his mother passing the buck too quickly, he calmly walked to the middle and raised his hand, and the applause gradually faded away.

"Ahem, dear neighbors, grandparents, uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters, I can achieve such results today. First of all, I want to thank my parents. It is they who raised me, protected me from the wind and rain, and provided me with good conditions. Next, I also want to thank my grandfather and grandmother... Thank you for the country's care for me... Thank you for my teachers' help... Thank you to all the neighbors for your tolerance..."

This was a long speech titled "Thanks". Everyone stared at Chang Zhengyang with tears in his eyes.

What did he say just now?

"It is because of everyone's care that I can grow stronger and stronger. Thank you for your care!"

There should be applause at this moment!

Chang Zhengyang looked at Xu Damao. This guy was indeed a smart guy. He immediately understood Chang Zhengyang's instructions and quickly stood up and clapped his hands vigorously.

It’s no wonder that Xu Damao’s applause was quite sincere, because he learned a little bit of the speaking skills of a big leader from Chang Zhengyang’s speech.

That is, the intention should be high, comprehensive, and profound. In short, it seems like everything has been said, and yet it seems like nothing has been said.

This will be of great help to him in the future. At least he can become a section chief.

Liu Haizhong also realized that all the leader needed to do when giving a speech was to express gratitude.

Don't doubt that Liu Haizhong misunderstood. Although Chang Zhengyang has not reported to the school yet, as soon as he reports to the school, he will immediately be transformed into a cadre.

Although workers are the big brothers, they are not cadres after all!

Liu Haizhong was almost obsessed with becoming an official, and the look he gave Chang Zhengyang was full of burning gaze.

I heard that leaders from the district, street office, and factory will come to express their condolences tomorrow, and there will be reporters taking pictures. As the second uncle of No. 95, he might have a chance to speak!

what?

Aren’t Yard 93 and Yard 95 the same yard?

Nonsense, No. 93 is clearly the east wing of No. 95. Even if the king of heaven comes, it is also a courtyard!

"Zhengyang is right. It is because of the love and care from our neighbors that you have achieved what you have today!"

Chang Zhengyang looked at Liu Haizhong who was holding his hands with a confused look on his face.

No, I was just talking casually, do you take it seriously?

Hey, this second uncle!

Xu Damao quietly moved to the side of Yi Zhonghai: "Uncle, look..."

"I know!"

How could Yi Zhonghai not know about Liu Haizhong's little thoughts? If he really talked nonsense in front of the leader and made a fool of himself, it would be a disgrace to their entire courtyard.

"Okay, it's getting late, let's go home and cook."

Everyone hurriedly stood up to say goodbye. Before leaving, Jia Zhang grabbed a handful of cakes on the table.

Seeing that everyone had left, Liu Haizhong let go of their hands in disappointment and left the Chang family reluctantly.

"Finally we all left. I'm so tired!"

Guo Huiying sat down, rubbing her calves, complaining but unable to hide the smile on her face.

"Let's cook a few more dishes tonight. Wanyue, Yushui, go buy two blocks of tofu. Zhengming, and Hu Bayi, go buy twenty bottles of soda, six bottles of Fenjiu, and two battles. I'll go to Pigeon City to buy pork. Brother Zhuzi, I'll leave the kitchen to you. I'll cook everything that can be done at home."

He Yuzhu showed a confident smile: "Okay, just watch me tonight!"

Chang Zhengyang went back to the house, and when he came out he gave the money and bills to Chang Wanyue and the others. Then he rode his bicycle straight to Pigeon City.

When night fell, a large round table was set up in the Chang family's yard. The table was full of eleven people, including the seven members of the Chang family, the He brothers and sisters, Xiao Hu and the fat boy.

There were a wide variety of dishes on the table, including cold cucumbers, cold tomatoes, scrambled eggs with leeks, stir-fried pork with green peppers, stir-fried bacon, scrambled eggs with loofah, sauerkraut fish, braised pork with cowpeas, braised chicken, fish head and tofu soup, a bowl of white flour steamed buns, as well as soda and watermelon.

As there were so many dishes to cook, He Yuzhu even brought over his own coal stove, and used three pots to cook together to make this sumptuous meal.

He Yuzhu put down the fish head tofu soup and said, "The dishes are ready, Uncle Chang, do you have anything to say?"

Chang Baichuan raised his glass, looked around and said, "Cheers!"

"cheers!"

Chang Zhengyang did not go out tonight. To be honest, although he knew how many points he would get in the exam, he was still very happy when the results came out.

There are four great joys in life: rain after a long drought, meeting an old friend in a foreign land, getting your name on the list of successful candidates, and the wedding night!

This is a title on the list of successful candidates!

Moreover, he was the top scorer in the imperial examination, which was a matter of honor for the family, and Chang Zhengyang was no exception.

It's not the wine that makes you drunk, but people make themselves drunk. Chang Zhengyang was drunk. Tonight was the first time he had slept a full night since he awakened his memory.

"It feels so good! I feel so refreshed. It seems I have been too tense recently!"

When "The East is Red" sounded on the radio, Chang Zhengyang opened his eyes, stretched, sat on the bed for a while, and then burst into laughter.

He brushed his teeth and washed his face, then went out to buy soy milk and fried dough sticks. After finishing his breakfast, he went to school first. After meeting Principal Lu, the principal first gave him a certificate and a pen, and then began to carefully remind him what he could and could not say when he met the leader in the morning.

Chang Zhengyang immediately patted his chest and expressed his opinion to Principal Lu, saying that it was all the care of the teachers and school leaders. Principal Lu said that all this was the result of Chang's own efforts...

At nine o'clock in the morning, at No. 93 Nanluoguxiang, district leaders, street office leaders, steel rolling mill leaders, Red Star Middle School leaders, teacher Chang Zhengyang, as well as representatives of the people in the alley, Chang Zhengyang's uncle, and finally the accompanying reporters, a group of more than twenty people came to Chang's house.

Why were there leaders from the steel rolling mill? It’s because Red Star Middle School is a school run by the factory, so of course they had to show up.

Don't underestimate the steel rolling mill just because it is a factory. It is a legitimate key enterprise under the ministry, a formal department-level enterprise. Although it does not have as much power as the district leaders, its status is similar.

Chang Zhengyang's two uncles, thanks to their nephew, have become familiar to the district leaders this time. However, with their level, they are not even qualified to report to the district leaders individually.

When taking photos, he also used the identity of a member of the Chang family and stood next to the leader.

"Finally, we left. It was such a pain in the ass in this hot weather. Uncle, please stay for lunch."

Chang Zhengyang put away a pile of award certificates. There were also several enamel cups, a few pens, and a pile of notebooks on the table.

As for the cash prize?

What are you thinking? That's impossible!
