Counterattack in the chronology

Meng Ancheng dragged the chair, sat down, and said slowly: "Actually, there is one thing I haven't told you. After school started, I received a letter saying that she is an educated youth on your farm. The farm has helped her a lot. She has been paying attention to you. She found that you have serious psychological problems. She suggested that I, as a father, take good care of you. I always feel that everyone has a little psychological problem, as long as I can adjust it. Yes. But I recently discovered that your problem is really a bit serious. Can you talk to Dad? Talk like a friend, you can say whatever you want."

Gu Lichun asked curiously: "What's the name of that educated youth? Why did he write to you?"

Meng Ancheng smiled slyly: "Shouldn't I ask this question? I guess it should be the person who has a crush on you."

Gu Lichun said seriously: "Dad, you can keep it a secret, but you also have to allow me to have a secret. I am an adult."

Meng Ancheng stood up and walked towards the door. Gu Lichun thought he was going back to his room to rest, so he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Unexpectedly, Meng Ancheng snapped and pulled the light cord, and the room was completely dark.

He turned back, sat on the chair, and said softly: "I think it's more suitable for us to chat in the dark."

Seeing his insistence, Gu Lichun had no choice but to admit: "Dad, I do encounter a little mental confusion, but I can solve it myself, please believe me."

Meng Ancheng said slowly: "In the past few days, I heard something about you. You helped Gu Qingshan's wife and son and helped them get some justice. You did the right thing."

Gu Lichun said: "I did it together with Yuan Jiansheng, probably based on a sense of justice."

Meng Ancheng tentatively said: "But since this incident, something is wrong with you. You and Gu Qingshan have never met before. I wonder if some of his actions have brought back unpleasant memories of your past, such as your adoptive father."

Meng Ancheng was not idle during the few days on the farm. He chatted with his second grandmother Tian Sanhong and others, and basically understood Gu Lichun's growth experience.He was also very clear about Gu Dajiang's personality and character. After thinking about it, he felt that if Lichun had a knot in his heart, it should have something to do with Gu Dajiang.

Meng Ancheng's tone was slow and soft: "Lichun, these days, I have asked other people about some psychological problems. There are very few domestic researches on this. I asked the teacher of the Department of Foreign Languages ​​for consultation. He has read a lot of relevant materials. .Although I have only learned a little bit, I really want to help you. Can you give me a chance? After all, your son is too good and independent, and I, as a father, can do very little."

Meng Ancheng's tone was sincere and sincere, not like a father talking to his son at all, but like a friend.He is really communicating with himself with an equal mentality.

Gu Lichun's heart softened, and he said, "Dad, first let me think about how to tell you."

He fell silent, and the room became eerily quiet.Meng Ancheng didn't rush him, but waited patiently.

After Gu Lichun thought for a long time, he decided to use Gu Dajiang as a cover to talk about his problems.These problems are not made up by him, the original owner really existed.

He said carefully: "Dad, you guessed it right, my problem is indeed related to my adoptive father. He is a very irresponsible father, alcoholism, domestic violence, and lazy. My adoptive father and my siblings and I live in his house." in the shadows.

I knew from a young age that I was an adopted son and my health was not good. Others said that I was abandoned by my biological parents.I also have a very good cousin, people always compare me with him.

I have lived a life of poverty, embarrassment, and depression since I was a child. I have low self-esteem, timidity, sensitivity, anxiety, and insecurity.

Later, in order to protect myself and my family, in order to escape my adoptive father.I forced myself to be extroverted and cheerful. I changed from being inferior and timid to being eloquent, using methods and scheming.I thought that if I became stronger, I would be able to completely cut off from the past, but it turned out that I was still affected by the past from time to time.When I saw Gu Xinghua, Gu Qingshan's son that day, it probably hurt him, and I suddenly thought of myself when I was a child, and I felt very depressed.I was thinking, am I unable to heal my childhood even if I spend my whole life? "

Gu Lichun's voice was calm and restrained, but Meng Ancheng understood that what he showed was only the tip of the iceberg, and the huge iceberg was still underwater.However, he can say it, which is already a huge improvement.

He thought of the irreparable damage to his son, all of which were caused by the absence of their husband and wife, he couldn't help crying, and blamed himself: "Zhuo Qun, if your mother and I were more careful, maybe you I won’t be taken away. If I were more mature and thoughtful, maybe I would have a way to prevent your mother from being sent down with us. Although there were various objective factors and environmental restrictions at the time, I was wrong. I was absent The most important period of your life, caused you irreparable harm. I'm sorry."

Gu Lichun didn't expect his father to apologize to him suddenly. He was very uncomfortable, and after a moment of stunned, he said, "Dad, you don't have to do this. It was a mistake at the time, don't blame yourself, and don't say sorry. "

Meng Ancheng wiped away his tears, and said seriously: "No, I should apologize for this, we owe you too much."

Gu Lichun's heart was shocked. In his previous life, he had imagined that his parents would wake up one day and apologize to him for their initial indifference and neglect.However, no, they are still waiting for him to be grateful, and feel that they have given birth to him, and they are not short of food and clothing, which is a huge favor.

Those who should apologize never think that they are wrong, and those who should not apologize should apologize.The world is so absurd and ironic.

Meng Ancheng thought for a while, then continued: "Zhuo Qun, when I was young, the war had not yet ended completely. At that time, our biggest problem was how to survive and feed our stomachs. Our generation has always lived a rough life. I can't help you. I totally empathize with my experience, but I try to understand as much as I can.

The question you just mentioned is whether it is impossible to cure childhood even if you spend a lifetime.My suggestion is, can you try to reconcile with the past, reconcile with your adoptive father?Forgive him completely. "

Gu Lichun said: "I tried it, I thought I had reconciled with the past, but...when I encounter a similar situation, I still hate it, and it's hard to understand."

Meng Ancheng said gently: "If you have tried it, don't force it. Reconciliation and forgiveness are natural things. Maybe when the time comes, you will automatically let go."

Meng Ancheng pondered for a long time, and then said: "Would you like to hear how I let go of my hatred?"

Gu Lichun hesitated for a moment before saying: "If the memory is painful, just forget it."

Meng Ancheng's voice was flat as usual, as if he was narrating someone else's story: "I won't mention the specific details. As I get older, my memory gets worse. I just talk about my feelings. During the years in prison, I experienced There are many things that I have never experienced before. At first I was angry and unwilling, and I felt that I could not be humiliated. I resisted fiercely. But in a twisted environment, it is easy to break through the rigidity. I have paid a lot for my character. The price is that I almost won't see you all."

Gu Lichun called out distressedly: "Dad."

Meng Ancheng patted his hand gently to show comfort: "It's okay, the plot will turn around soon. I slowly thought about it. I still have a wife, daughter, and relatives. Do I need to die because of a group of ignorant villains? ?My death has no meaning except to hurt my loved ones. I think of Hemingway's words, 'A man can be destroyed, but not defeated'. As long as they don't destroy my penis, I will not be defeated. I made it through little by little. One day, I took out a few pages from the mouse hole in the prison cell, and it turned out to be "The Count of Monte Cristo". The protagonist has also been in prison. A batch of treasures.

I thought at the time, this is the revelation of fate to me.In the novel, the earl is imprisoned to pave the way for the following plot, so is the suffering I am suffering now also the need of the plot?When I think about it this way, I suddenly see the light.I imagine my life as a novel, and all the sufferings are just the plot needs. If I survive the catastrophe, I will have future blessings and adventures.I must hold on and see what the end of my life is?See how this era ends?I have a bad habit. When I read a novel, I must see the ending, otherwise I will have trouble sleeping and eating. "

Gu Lichun wanted to cry when he heard the front, and wanted to laugh when he heard the back, he said: "I have this habit too, and I have another habit, I want to write it myself when I see unsatisfactory plots and endings, according to my meaning Come."

Meng Ancheng praised: "You are better, I will try it in the future."

Meng Ancheng continued: "You have guessed the rest of the matter. I really had an adventure. I thought my son who had been buried in the river had rescued me and suddenly appeared in front of my bed. Then I was reunited with your mother, and the exercise was over. Our family is fine. After that, I faced another problem, that is, how should I treat those who have hurt me? Some enemies were solved by you, some were solved by Nian Qun, and some people, I also teach them to be human again in my own way.

But there are still many people, I can't take revenge, and I can't take revenge on all of them, and your uncle, he can't.What shall we do then?We can only let go and forget.Forgive them, not because of how generous I am, but because of my peace of mind and future happiness.Because, if I live with hatred all the time, it is tantamount to planting thorns in my heart, which will only bruise myself and the people around me. "

Gu Lichun didn't speak, he couldn't fully empathize with him, but he would try his best to understand.

Meng Ancheng lectured for a day during the day and talked so much at night that his voice gradually became hoarse. He didn't care at all, and continued to say in a hoarse and low voice: "It is said in "The Four Trainings of Liao Fan" that in the past, "For example, If you die yesterday, you will be born later, such as being born today'. If you can forget the past, it is best to start over; if you can't forget it, then let the past guide your future, don't let it determine your future."

Gu Lichun gave a soft "um", Meng Ancheng's words caused waves in his heart, his heart was ups and downs, and it was difficult to calm down.He remembered that he was very depressed in middle school, and even had the idea of ​​committing suicide.Parents are still busy with their own business, no one pays attention to him.

After his teacher learned about his situation, he was very concerned about him and provided spiritual counseling from time to time.At that time, he imagined how wonderful it would be if the teacher was his father.

Now he really has such a father, and he also gets the love from his parents that he longed for when he was a child.

Is this his compensation?What he lost, God returned to him in another form?

As Gu Lichun thought about it, his consciousness became blurred involuntarily. He had been exhausted emotionally for the past few days, and when he suddenly relaxed, he felt extremely tired.

Meng Ancheng was a little worried about leaving him behind, so he slept on the side of the bed with his clothes on, and made up for the night.Gu Lichun felt that there were other people around him, at first he was a little resistant and uncomfortable, but in a haze, he remembered that the person lying next to him was his father, and he no longer resisted, he gradually relaxed and fell asleep completely.

Gu Lichun fell into a deep sleep and didn't wake up until the next afternoon.

Not long after he woke up, Qing Yang came back from school.She ran back bouncing around, handed him a popsicle, and said with a smile: "Brother, let's eat quickly, Mom won't let you eat ice."

Gu Lichun nodded, very cooperative with her: "Okay, let's eat it before Mom gets off work."

The two sat under the grape arbor, eating popsicles happily.

Qing Yang stared at him while eating popsicles, Gu Lichun asked sharply, "What's wrong with you?"

Qing Yang hesitated for a moment before saying: "Brother, I have something to tell you, let's say it first, don't scold me."

Gu Lichun nodded: "Tell me, I won't scold you."

Then Qing Yang said with confidence: "Last night, I got up to drink water, and I heard Dad talking in your room. The condemnation went back.

I heard what you said about your adoptive father. I'm not as knowledgeable as my father, and I can't make much sense.

What I want to say is, don't take that kind of scum to heart, take revenge if you can, and put it aside if you can't.Look at me, I was discarded at birth, but so what?I'm not still alive and well.My biological parents, if they come to me in the future, I won't take a look at them, and I don't hate them, and I don't care about them at all. "

Gu Lichun had mixed feelings in his heart, and said, "Qing Yang, you are really a strong and transparent child."

Qing Yang smiled: "Brother, you are more powerful, everyone praises you, even uncle, who is not easy to praise others, praises you."

The two were talking, when Qing Yang's ear twitched suddenly, and he said, "It's broken, mom is back, throw away the popsicle stick quickly."

The two quickly threw away their things, wiped their mouths clean, and pretended nothing happened.The door opened, and it was my father who came back.

As soon as Meng Ancheng came back, he took money out of his pocket, handed Gu Lichun 30 yuan, and said, "I've paid my salary today, here it is."

Gu Lichun waved his hand: "Dad, my salary is higher than yours. I have money."

Meng Ancheng stuffed it into his hand: "This is pocket money for you."

Speaking of this, he smiled slyly: "You take it first, and we will go buy books together in the future. Your mother held a meeting with me a few days ago and said that I bought books too hard, which has reached the point where it affects the family's finances. I will 80% of the salary is handed in every month. Before handing in, I still have the right to control, so I will give you pocket money quickly."

When Meng Qingyang heard that there was such a good thing, he took the opportunity to say: "Dad, now that you have the right to control, give me some pocket money too."

Meng Ancheng said: "Your pocket money can be given up to 5 yuan a month. I don't have any change, so I can ask your mother for it."

Meng Qingyang hurriedly said, "It's okay Dad, I can give you some change."

Gu Lichun: "..."

In the end, Meng Ancheng also gave Qing Yang five yuan, and Qing Yang gave him a handful of change.

As soon as Meng Ancheng saw the change, he had other thoughts, and said to Qing Yang, "Hurry up and buy some popsicles at the store, we will each have one."

Meng Qingyang said, "My mother will be back soon."

"There are activities in the library today, and she won't be back for a while."

When Meng Qingyang heard this, he was so happy that he ran out. After a while, he ran back with three popsicles in his hand.

Meng Ancheng confiscated Gu Lichun's stick: "You are not in good health, don't eat ice, I will eat it for you."

Gu Lichun had already eaten one just now, and he didn't really want to eat it, but he was also worried that his father would not be able to eat two, so he grabbed one.

After eating the popsicles secretly, the three of them quickly cleaned up, Meng Ancheng went to the kitchen to cook, Qing Yang went to do his homework, and Gu Lichun went into the kitchen to help.

Thinking about the conversation last night, Gu Lichun couldn't help asking: "Dad, is the educated youth who wrote you a letter male or female?"

Meng Ancheng looked surprised: "I have always defaulted to the fact that the other party is a girl. You have broadened my thinking by asking this question. So, has your charm reached the point where men and women can tell?"

Gu Lichun said leisurely: "Teacher He said, I am much more handsome than you when you were young, so it is possible."

Meng Ancheng said while chopping vegetables: "Old He has always been jealous of me, his words cannot be trusted."

Gu Lichun suddenly said seriously: "Dad, I seem to have figured it out. I have decided to forgive my biological father and let go of my hatred for him. Anyway, I will never be a father and son with him in my next life. I will live a good life in the future." He was talking about Gu Xinghua, and since then, their grievances and grievances have been settled, and there is no intersection.

Meng Ancheng nodded slightly: "In the future, don't close yourself up anymore. You should try to experience a rich life, make more friends, fall in love and get married. Even falling in love is an experience. According to the experience of your teachers in the philosophy department, falling in love can It makes people deep, and marriage makes people open-minded.”

Gu Lichun: "..."

Meng Ancheng went on to say: "I think the educated youth who wrote me the letter is okay. Not to mention anything else, this persistence is quite suitable for your awkwardness. It seems that he should persist for several years, right? And he even knows Curve to save the country, it is very courageous to pay attention to you through me. When I pursued your mother, all I could think of was to encourage your grandfather, your uncle, and your second uncle to go to Yu's house more. As a result, your grandfather fell in love with your uncle, and he thought I Unsteady and unreliable."

Gu Lichun held back for a while, but still couldn't hold back: "Actually, I think grandpa's vision is quite accurate."

Meng Ancheng feigned anger and said, "Okay, you will have to pay for your words and deeds, and you won't have the right to eat popsicles in the future."

As for who this so-called educated youth is, Gu Lichun already has the answer in his heart, but he still wants to confirm.

That night, Gu Lichun waited until the family members were asleep, then quietly got up, took the key, and found the East Wing. Moonlight opens the door.

Suddenly, he stopped again.

It doesn't seem very good to do this. Although it is his own father, it is not good to enter the study in this way. Even if he pretends to go in during the day to look for books, it is better to rummage when he takes the opportunity than to rummage like a thief.

Thinking of this, Gu Lichun resolutely stopped.He is a good young man with good conduct, who does what he does and what he does not.

As soon as he turned around, he found that his father was standing at the door of the living room, waving a cattail fan and looking at him.

Gu Lichun said calmly: "I couldn't bear the condemnation of my conscience, so I decided to rein in the precipice."

Meng Ancheng said seriously: "It's good that you can hold back. I just couldn't hold back back then. I read the letter your uncle wrote to your uncle. From then on, he had a handle and started to reach out to me. Here. If you look through my drawer today, it means breaking a tacit agreement, and next time I can look through your drawer without any psychological burden. "

Gu Lichun said happily: "It's so dangerous."

The two were standing at the door talking, when they heard their mother's voice from the back room: "You two don't sleep in the middle of the night, what are you talking about outside?"

Meng Ancheng turned around and said, "Don't shout, I'll go back to my room in a while."

Meng Ancheng turned his head, and said triumphantly to Gu Lichun, "I'm past middle age, and my charm is still undiminished. Look at how possessive your mother is to me."

Gu Lichun: "..." Can't you be more particular?

As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Tianlan roared in the room: "Old man, why are you talking nonsense to the child, you are disrespectful to old people."

Meng Ancheng didn't dare to say anything, and went back to his room obediently.

Since that conversation, on the surface everything was the same as before, but Gu Lichun knew that he was really trying to let go of his obsessions. When he occasionally met Gu Qingshan in school, his heart had no fluctuations.

Thinking about it now, he actually only gained financial freedom in his previous life, but not spiritual and spiritual freedom. Let’s make up for it together in this life.His life should have a broader future and a richer experience.People like Gu Qingshan and Gu Xinghua don't need to have a place in his life.

……

When he was a sophomore, Chen Yu called and asked him if he wanted to study abroad together?Gu Lichun refused.

Chen Yu said: "Lichun, I will come back after five years."

Gu Lichun smiled and said: "It's fine if you don't come back, go and harm foreigners."

Chen Yu also smiled: "I don't want to, I will come back to harm you, just wait."

Gu Lichun didn't quite believe his words. He knew that in two years time, there would be a wave of going abroad in China, and many people would never come back after going. Chen Yu might be the same as them.

After all, in this period, the gap between China and Western countries is still quite large. Unlike later generations, their national self-confidence has become stronger, and they are not very keen on going abroad.He didn't go to study abroad at the beginning, so he just went on a trip.

Gu Lichun took enough credits in his junior year and applied for early graduation.Meng Nianqun and Chen Jie applied to get married in their junior year.

As soon as Gu Lichun graduates, he will inevitably be involved in distribution issues. He has excellent grades. He has published many articles in major newspapers and magazines in the three years of university, and has won numerous awards. In addition, he has an impressive resume before he went to university.

Knowing that he graduated early, all major newspapers and government agencies offered olive branches. The president of Dongda University felt that the fat water should not flow to outsiders, so he revealed to Meng Ancheng that he wanted Gu Lichun to stay in the school to teach.College students are scarce in this era, and undergraduates can also stay in school, unlike later generations, who have to have a doctorate to stay in school, and it is best to have a doctorate who has studied abroad.Gu Lichun was a little moved. He felt that the life of a university professor was good, calm and fulfilling, and the environment was relatively simple.After thinking deeply, he still decided to follow the wild call in his heart.

He still wants to open a farm, but this time he wants to open a few more and bigger ones.Start a few more companies, when the wind comes, start a business, speculate in individual stocks, become an angel investor, and invest in a large number of potential stocks.He wanted to live a life with money and leisure and no one to care about.

After making up his mind, Gu Lichun didn't hesitate anymore, and rejected several good units in the eyes of everyone. Even his uncle wanted to assign him to a relevant department in the capital, but Gu Lichun also rejected him.

The uncle's majesty was challenged, he called Meng Ancheng without saying anything, and asked him to ask what was going on.

Meng Ancheng was ordered to talk to Gu Lichun, and he asked straight to the point: "I also want to know, why did you reject so many good units?"

Gu Lichun said straightforwardly: "Dad, I keep my word. I want to grow old after graduation."

Meng Ancheng said: "You can chew on my old flesh. However, I want to know the real reason."

Gu Lichun had no choice but to explain one by one: "First of all, I am quite lazy. I used to be diligent because I had to do it. I have nothing to do except as a temporary worker. I am impatient with personnel fights and trivial matters, so the agency does not suit me."

Meng Ancheng nodded: "I understand, that's up to me."

Gu Lichun continued: "I like to chase freedom. I am impatient to manage people, and I don't like others to control me. Uncle's department is not very good, let alone me. There are so many people on Uncle's head. I am alone. Newcomers, how many hell kings and little ghosts must be on their heads, and their words and deeds must be restrained."

Meng Ancheng said helplessly: "If you are impatient, it's up to me."

"Another point is that my body is not good, and my energy is limited, so I can't be too tired."

"It's up to me and your mother."

Speaking of this, Meng Ancheng asked: "Then I think it's appropriate for you to stay in Dongda."

Gu Lichun shook his head: "No, I want to open a few farms, set up a few companies, write articles for free, and earn more money. When I have money, I will donate a few buildings to Dongda University. The library should have been expanded long ago. Now, it’s time to build a new dormitory building, and the road has to be repaired. Maybe Dongda University will give me the title of honorary professor, and I can take classes if I want to, and I won’t if I don’t want to.”

Meng Ancheng: "Your idea is really beautiful, isn't it just 'wrapping a hundred thousand guan, ride a crane down to Yangzhou'?"

Gu Lichun added with a smile: "Basically, the statement I prepared is '3000 years of studying history is nothing more than fame and fortune; [-] miles of enlightenment is nothing more than a garden of poetry and wine.' How? Interesting, right? .”

Meng Ancheng nodded: "This is interesting, who wrote it? You wrote it?"

Gu Lichun's heart skipped a beat. This is Mr. Nan Huaijin's words. I don't know if this sentence came out, and it may not necessarily spread to the mainland.

He hurriedly said: "From the forbidden book, it should be from Baodao. Dad, please don't spread it."

Meng Ancheng said solemnly: "Next time there are such books, let me have a look first, I have to check."

"Okay, sure."

The news of Gu Lichun's refusal to be assigned was spread, and everyone was surprised and puzzled.

Meng Ancheng explained to the outside world: "My son is writing, and it will take a few years to write a novel."

Writers in this era are still very respectable professions. When everyone heard that Gu Lichun wanted to be a writer, they thought it was quite reasonable. After all, he really knew how to write and had published so many works.

After completing the graduation procedures, Gu Lichun went back to Honghe Farm to help Sister Bai carry out a series of reform measures that not only conformed to the development of the times but also increased production and income. Proposal" and submitted it to Director Tan and Chang Deng. After 1979, the farm began to assume the responsibility of the farm manager. The secretary of the party committee was only responsible for ideological and political work. The affairs of the farm were mainly in charge of the manager. Yes, no accident is Deng Chang.

After finishing the work that should be done, Gu Lichun went to go through the resignation procedures.

He contracted a piece of barren hills to plant fruit trees in the south of Dongyun County, and hired Wu Pang and his wife to help look after him. Wu Pang got married last year, and the woman was from a nearby village, which fully satisfied Wu Pang's fantasies about women: tall, strong, The noodles are like silver basins, the most important thing is that they have a good appetite and good cooking skills.The couple are naive and happy all day long.

Zhao Zhijun concluded: "It can be seen that when looking for a partner, young people are not afraid of asking, but afraid of not asking."

After speaking, he took a special look at Gu Lichun.Gu Lichun just smiled without saying a word.

Gu Lichun started business and wrote articles, and when he earned enough money, he contracted barren hills and wasteland. He also set up two companies, one specializing in pig feed, and the other a seed company.

He has a good eye, knows how to employ people, and has connections.The feed company quickly gained a foothold and started to make a profit in the first year. Then he opened a processing factory that produces tempeh and chili sauce. The factory was built in the western suburbs of Dongzhou, and he took over his grandmother as a technical consultant.In fact, he originally suggested to his uncle and cousin to set up the factory, and he also said that he could lend them part of the start-up capital, but the two were conservative in character and did not dare to take risks.Gu Lichun simply came by himself and gave his grandma a technology transfer fee. Grandma Tian had never seen so much money in her life, so she didn't want it.

Gu Lichun had no choice but to open an account to save the money, planning to buy a house for his cousin in the future.

Gu Lichun was doing well, and some young people who were not doing well on the farm thought of defecting, and Zhao Gao and Xiao Sun took the lead.

Zhao Gao called to test it out: "Brother Gu, Xiao Sun and I have no fun working on the farm, can we go and join you?"

Gu Lichun said: "You are my good friends, of course I am willing to work with you, but let me put my ugly words first, I am self-employed, not a state unit, I have to bear my own profits and losses, and take risks. And I am busy. It's a busy time."

Zhao Gao said, "I understand."

After talking about the risks, Gu Lichun also talked about the benefits: "Of course, I won't treat you badly if you do a good job. I pay slightly higher wages than the farm, and the wages are divided into basic salary and commission. The more you work, the more you get. You are a company. I will give you a little more shares, and you will get dividends at the end of the year."

Zhao Gao said excitedly: "Brother Gu, you are so kind to us, I will depend on you for the rest of my life."

Regardless of the dissuasion of family and friends, Zhao Gao and Xiao Sun resolutely went through the resignation procedures and came to Dongzhou to join Gu Lichun.

As soon as they came, Lidong and Lixia couldn't sit still anymore, they called together and said they wanted to join him.

Gu Lichun said: "Lidong doesn't like reading, so forget it if you don't want to, and I won't force you. But Lixia, you can't do it. You have good grades in reading, so you have to keep reading. Don't be too short-sighted, and take a long-term view. After finishing college Come out to work again."

Although Li Xia felt a little regretful, he felt that what the elder brother said made sense, so he gave up this idea.Lidong was overjoyed when he thought that he would not have to go to school anymore.

However, Lidong's brain is limited, and he doesn't have many capable jobs, but he wins because he is diligent, powerful and loyal.Gu Lichun arranged a suitable position for him, and the salary was based on the market price.Since Lidong, Zhao Gao and Xiaosun, Gerber has also come, and Gu Lichun has been responsible for the security work of the factory.Lao Ge likes this job very much and works diligently every day.

Three years later, Gu Lichun's several companies have begun to take shape and are running well. "Grandma's" chili sauce is already well-known in the provincial capital, "Grandma's" pickles are also famous, pig feed is even more famous, and is very popular among pigs.

The farm plan also started to be implemented. After many comparisons and considerations, Gu Lichun finally chose a place on the east side of Dongzhou City. There are mountains, lakes and rivers here. More than ten years later, this place will definitely become a popular scenic spot.

Gu Lichun acted first, took the best position, and began to develop slowly, building roads, doing greening, planting fruit trees, planting roses, opening fish ponds, and so on.

After Gu Lichun had money, he naturally wanted to improve his family's living conditions.He successively bought color TVs, refrigerators, and motorcycles for the Gu family and the Meng family, which aroused everyone's envy and jealousy.It is said that Zhao Zhijun drove his motorcycle around the farm when he had nothing to do.

Meng Ancheng liked the refrigerator at home very much, so Yu Tianlan complained to Gu Lichun several times: "You take care of your father, he often eats popsicles and drinks ice water behind my back, if he does this again, I will give the refrigerator away. "

After Mr. He heard about it, he came to the door and said, "Old Yu, if you can't control Lao Meng, you can put the refrigerator in my house, and I will look after it for you."

Meng Ancheng teased: "Old He, you are not beautiful, but you think it is beautiful. This is my son's filial piety to me. You ask your son to buy it for you."

……

Time flies, and another year has passed.After a year of construction, Gu Lichun's Mengxiang Farm has become a decent place. There are two small buildings with unique shapes, a three-story villa, two bluestone roads, several cobblestone paths, and green grass. , flowers are blooming, and trees are verdant.

With the expansion of the farm, the workload also increased, and it was impossible for Gu Lichun to be here all day, so he wanted to hire an assistant who could do most of the work for him.

Among the acquaintances, there is no suitable one, and Xiao Sun and Zhao Gao have their own jobs, so they can't leave for the time being.

Gu Lichun published a job advertisement in the newspaper, and there were some applicants, but none were suitable.

Gu Lichun is not in a hurry, anyway, he is still busy now.During winter and summer vacations, parents, younger brothers and sisters can come to help.

This morning, when Gu Lichun opened the door, he welcomed a special applicant.

This person is tall and straight, more than 1.8 meters five by visual inspection, wearing sunglasses, carrying a suitcase, wearing a black windbreaker, and walking with wind.

Gu Lichun took one look and silently crossed it out. This person has a lot of aura, but he is not like an assistant, and he will be more or less a client in the future.

Although he had already decided not to hire this person, Gu Lichun still received him very politely.

"Hello, I'm Gu Lichun, the person in charge of the farm, may I have your surname?"

The visitor raised his mouth and said, "Your surname is Chen, your name is Yu, and Yu is the one who controls the floods." He slowly took off his sunglasses as he spoke.

Gu Lichun stared blankly at Chen Yu in front of him.

They haven't seen each other for six years, and this guy's appearance has changed a lot. He used to be as tall as himself, but now he is a head taller than him. As each other, very aggressive.

Chen Yu smiled slightly and said, "Director Gu, you don't know me anymore? You really forget things."

Gu Lichun also smiled and said: "You have changed a bit, are you returning to China to visit relatives?"

Chen Yu put the suitcase on the ground, slowly took off the windbreaker, found a chair and sat down, and said, "Actually, I came back last year and spent some time on my grandparents' funeral."

When Gu Lichun heard that Grandpa Chen and Grandma Chen had passed away, he couldn't help but sighed, and comforted him, "I'm sorry to hear the news, are you okay?"

Chen Yu's face was calm: "It's been a year, and I'm fine. Birth, old age, sickness and death are natural laws, which are inevitable. They left very peacefully, and they mentioned you before leaving."

Gu Lichun was in a heavy mood, he nodded, poured a cup of tea for Chen Yu, and put it on the table.

Chen Yu took a sip of tea, raised his head, looked at Gu Lichun with burning eyes, and asked, "I'm alone now, with no worries, I've grown up and matured. "

Gu Lichun smiled and said, "It looks familiar."

He sighed and said with emotion: "This land used to hate me very much and hurt me a lot, but I still love it very much. I decided to come back and build it better."

Gu Lichun raised his head
