The history of raising children from the Republic of China to the 70s

"It's not easy to raise a child, you, you have to take it to heart, no matter where you go, remember that there are people waiting for you at home, don't be like those people who don't know how to be grateful, look at life outside, and don't come back!"

These words are very serious, but Mr. Xu is very serious, his eyes are fixed on the expression on Li Chengye's face.

"Of course not, I will definitely go back to China." Li Chengye in the war-torn era chose to go back to China. Now in this peaceful age, how could Li Chengye, who has great opportunities in the future, not come back? No matter how good the outside world is, it is not his home.

"I believe that Huaguo will develop rapidly in the next 20 years." This is true. The market is king. Huaguo has so many people, almost one-fifth of the world's population, and the market is huge. It's just that it hasn't been developed yet, the potential is unlimited, and the future can be expected.

"Yeah, of course." Mr. Xu also thinks that Huaguo is the best, and has a bright future.

"Our Xu family has three generations. It can barely be regarded as a military family, and the connections are all in the army. And you are engaged in economic construction. I don't understand, and there are few places that can help you. , you can only rely on yourself." Mr. Xu also felt very guilty about his only daughter and grandson, if he could find them earlier, maybe the situation would not be like this.

You must know that Li Chengye was also a soldier and a company commander before, if he could find them earlier, maybe his career would be smoother, and he would not be injured later and leave the army.Although the army is the most capable place, with him around, the brilliance of Li Chengye's body is easier to be discovered.

"Grandpa, from what you said, I'm fine now. My teacher can be said to be one of the leaders in the field of economics in Huaguo. He is going to study abroad soon. You, take care of your health, it's just for me Best help."

As the elderly are getting older, they feel regretful about many things and want to make up for many things.Li Chengye naturally also understood that since the two families met each other, his grandfather has been very kind to them, and he would send any good things to the Li family, not to mention all kinds of care.

"Okay, I will live a few more years and help you look after your mother and the others for two years. When you come back at that time, you will take care of yourself." Mr. Xu smiled with satisfaction.

"Well, I really want to thank grandpa."

Afterwards, Li Chengye chatted with Mr. Xu for a while, and then went to his room. When he went out, he closed the door and turned off the lights, but this time the door of the room was open, and the lights were on. .

"I'm back!" The one who spoke was Mother Li who heard footsteps coming out. She pulled Li Chengye away from the door quickly, her voice was very low.

"Mother, are you in my room?" I wasn't too surprised to see Li's mother, Li Chengye, neither mother nor son had spoken alone today.

"It's not just me, but Xiaoxi and Xiaobei are also waiting for you in your room! Why don't you go to sleep." Mother Li sighed helplessly. As soon as the two children heard that their father was going away for two years, How could he be happy if he didn't come back? He always looked sullen, that is, he was happier when he was eating, and when he was going to sleep, he remembered this matter again, and ran directly to Li Chengye's room, not going back at all Well, it happened that Li Chengye went to find Mr. Xu, so they waited until now.

"That's it, mother, go to sleep first, I'll coax them." Li Chengye also rubbed his chin in a funny way, these two children are usually very good, but they are rarely like this now.

"Can you fix those two little ones? Just let me go back?"

"It should be fine!" The two children were quite obedient when they said it.

"You! You think highly of yourself, okay, let me go with you!" Li's mother didn't trust Li Chengye very much. The child has grown up, but it's not as easy to deceive as before.

After saying this, Li's mother signaled Li Chengye to enter the house, and she followed Li Chengye and walked in.

"Father, are you going to leave us?" Xiaoxi rushed over right after he walked in, grabbing Li Chengye's sleeve.

"Father, do we have to go that far? Can you bring grandma and us?" Xiao Bei immediately followed.

The two children are looking very good now, with fleshy faces, they will be ten years old soon, and they are almost above Li Chengye's waist.However, he still has a childish look, with reluctance on his face, which is pity.

It's still really hard to say no to.

Mother Li hurried forward and said to the two children: "Xiaoxi, Xiaobei, your father is going to study outside, where can I take you with me?"

When she was talking, she casually pulled the two children into her arms, and gently patted the children behind to comfort them.

"Then dad doesn't want us?" Xiaoxi looked at Li Chengye stubbornly.

Li Chengye could clearly see the fear inside, doubts and uncertainties, it was really very complicated.

"How is it possible? I just went to study outside. This is a task assigned to me by our country. I will come back in two years. Just like what the country arranges for you now is to study hard and graduate from elementary school smoothly. After that Admitted to junior high school, high school."

"Don't worry, Dad will come back when you graduate from elementary school." Since coming to the capital, the two children have followed suit.

"Will you really come back?" Xiaoxi still looked at Li Chengye.

"Of course, there are you here, it's my home, of course I will come back, and when the time comes, I will watch you grow up, go to college, get married and have children..."

It was as if Li Chengye was speaking to a person of his own age, and he promised very seriously.

"Then can you call us?" Xiao Bei suddenly said something, but he knew that his grandfather had a phone and he could hear people's voices from far away.He has always wanted to call and see, but he has not had the chance yet, and grandma won't let him play.

"Um, can I call you if I have a chance?" Li Chengye is not sure whether he can find an international transfer line abroad.

"Okay, okay." Xiaobei didn't have so many thoughts, and he was relieved knowing that his father would definitely come back.

Xiaoxi had more thoughts. Although Li Chengye had said so, he still looked a little unhappy.

"Mother, take Xiao Bei to take a bath first, I still have something to say to Xiao Xi." Li Chengye naturally saw it, and after thinking about it, he prepared to continue chatting with Xiao Bei for a while.

"Okay, then Xiaobei will sleep with you today, he can take a bath by himself, remember to watch the quilt at night, so as not to catch a cold." Mother Li agreed without hesitation, and she was about to take Xiaobei away.

"Ah! Then I want to sleep here too, with my father and brother." Xiaobei disagreed when he heard that Xiaoxi slept here at night. He had slept with Xiaoxi since he was a child.As he spoke, he dodged Mother Li's hand, ran over and grabbed Xiaoxi's hand.

"Okay, okay, I'll take you to take a bath first, and then I'll send you here later." Mother Li was helpless, and besides, this request was not very embarrassing, so she agreed.

"That's right, you go take a shower first, and my brother and I will wait for you here." There has never been a chance to sleep with the two children, and today is also a good chance.

After being dissuaded, Xiaobei was dragged away by Li's mother.

The door was closed, and Li Chengye took Xiaoxi to sit on the bed, "Xiaoxi, are you still worried that Dad won't come back after going out?"

Xiaoxi frowned and nodded, "Well, Mother also said to go out, but she didn't come back."

The child experienced a change when he was very young, and those painful memories have never disappeared, and his thoughts were heavier, so when he heard that Li Chengye was going to go out, it was still so far abroad, his heart ached, he was very worried, afraid Like his mother, Li Chengye did not come back.

"Xiaoxi, let me tell you this. My going abroad is a task arranged by the state. I have to come back when the time comes. If I don't come back, I may be arrested. So don't worry, I will definitely come back."

"And with you in the country, I can't bear it, don't you think?"

The patient explanation finally made Xiaoxi nod her head.

"Xiaoxi, you are the older brother. When Dad leaves, you will be the man of the family. You have to take care of grandma and younger brother, can you?" On the little boy.

"Of course, I'm a man. I'm sure I can take good care of grandma and younger brother. I'll wait for daddy to come back." Xiaoxi puffed out her small chest with a very firm and confident look.

"Okay!" Li Chengye smiled with satisfaction, and gently rubbed his head with his hand.

Afterwards, the two father and son said some other things, the atmosphere was very good, and Xiaoxi was no longer so worried that Li Chengye would never come back.

The family affairs are almost done. In the past two years, Li Chengye still contributes articles to the newspaper from time to time. The articles are long and short. He really has a lot of savings in his hands, and he gave most of them to Li's mother.Anyway, the government-sponsored tuition and living expenses and air tickets are all paid by the government, so he doesn't need so much money, and he is confident that he will find a way to make money after going abroad, so he doesn't think about bringing much money.

The power of the state apparatus is great, and soon Li Chengye and the others have completed the procedures for going abroad.Now there are generally only a few people who can go abroad, those who study abroad, those who are on business research, almost all of them have gone through a few political classes before going abroad, mainly to avoid not coming back after going abroad, or causing trouble abroad.

Li Chengye had the experience of going abroad on business before, so for him, these things were very easy.

Pack your luggage, organize your books, etc...

As the weather gets colder every day, the time to go abroad is getting closer.
