60s Splendid Life

"Jingle Bell--"

I haven't heard this sound for several months. When I heard the familiar bell ringing, Lu Jin, who works in the tofu shop, was stunned for a moment. As soon as he walked out of the door, he saw the postman sitting on his bicycle, parked in the In front of their tofu shop.

There are two large bags on the rear rack of the bicycle, needless to say, they are full of letters.

Lu Jin went out and asked, "Do you have my letter?"

"Yes, there is yours." The postman recognized Lu Jin after delivering so many mails in Lujiacun. He found Lu Jin's letter from the bag, "This is your name, isn't it, Lu Jin?" If there is no problem, sign here." Asking Lu Jin to sign the form, he gave the letter to the recipient.

"Thank you." Lu Jin took the mail, thanked the postman, and saw someone riding a bicycle inside. There should be letters from other people in their village.

Glancing at the familiar handwriting on the envelope and the sender's name, Lu Jin was inexplicably agitated. He put the letter in his pocket and didn't open it outside to read it.However, when he was working this morning, he couldn't help but feel for the letter in his pocket, for fear that it would accidentally fall out when he bent down while working.

After finally getting off work at noon, Lu Jin told someone and left first. On the way back, he found a place where no one was there. He opened the envelope, took out the letter inside, and opened it to read.

The new beginning is the same as before, with familiar handwriting and familiar tone——

Welcome to the exhibition!

I'm sorry it took me so long to reply to you. I found out what you asked me to ask for you... When will you come over? I'll pick you up at the station.

They also left an address and a phone number later.

Lu Jin read a short letter back and forth three times, remembering the address and phone number behind it, and couldn't help but smile on his face.Folding the letter back as it was, stuffing it back into the envelope, and putting it back in his pocket, he smiled and went home.

Yu Wenchang found that his grandson was very happy when he came back from outside today, so he couldn't help asking curiously: "What good thing happened to grandson today, so happy?"

"It's a good thing." Lu Jin told his grandfather that Shen Yu helped them inquire about the hospital and doctors in the letter, and by the way, told his plan: "I plan to take Xiaobao to the Shanghai Stock Exchange in February and March next year." Let's take a look, if he can be operated on in this situation, we will perform the operation, if not, we will think of other ways."

"Can Xiaobao's feet really be cured?" Yu Wenchang's eyes widened slightly, and he looked at his grandson with hope in his eyes.

"There is this hope, but it's hard to say now. We'll have to wait for the examination and talk to the doctor to know what's going on." Lu Jin doesn't know how the current medical technology and medical level are, but as long as there is hope, they all Going to try it out.

Little Bao'er heard his elder brother and grandpa talking about him, and slid over on his little car, looking at his elder brother and grandpa eagerly.Now the kid's riding skills are the best in the whole family. Not only is he fast, he can brake in time, and he seldom hits things in the house and falls down.

When Lu Qinglian heard her brother said that her brother's feet could be healed, she also ran over to look at her brother, even Chenchen came over, and the three siblings stared at him together.

Lu Jin couldn't help laughing, so he had to tell his elder sister and younger brother about this, and asked the two elder brothers and sisters: "If my elder brother takes Xiaobao to the Shanghai stock market next year, can you stay at home with grandpa?"

Grandpa Yu was the first to refuse, "No, how can I just let you take Xiaobao and the two of you together? Grandpa wants to accompany you. Your uncle...he may be busy with work, and I'm afraid he doesn't have time. I went with you, grandpa is free, so grandpa can accompany you." But what if he accompanied two grandsons to the Shanghai stock market, and the other two stayed at home?It's not easy to take them together, right?

But at this time, the granddaughter didn't embarrass him for too long, and she heard the granddaughter say: "Brother, I can wait for you at home with my brother. You can let grandpa go with you." Once, she took her younger brother to the town, and she and her younger brother stayed at home to wait for him and the younger brothers to come back.

The granddaughter is so sensible, Yu Wenchang almost didn't shed tears of emotion.

"Don't worry about this matter. There are still several months left. Let's discuss it after the Chinese New Year." Lu Jin himself has to think about how to arrange their home, whether to let grandpa go with them, or let grandpa stay at home Help him take care of the other two younger siblings.In fact, Lu Jin privately wanted his grandfather to stay at home, and he didn't want the old man to accompany them so far. Moreover, they didn't know when they would come back when they went to the Shanghai stock market. It took ten days and a half months, maybe It is possible to go for a longer time, and there is no adult at home to watch, so he is not very relieved.

But now it's still far away from their time to go, and they can discuss it later.

It's just that for a while later Lu Qinglian was worried about her elder brother taking her younger brother out to see a doctor. On the one hand, she was worried that her elder brother and younger brother would go so far away, and on the other hand, she was worried that it would cost money for her elder brother to take her younger brother to see a doctor. I don't have that much money to see a doctor for my younger brother.She saw that her brother hadn't been to the town for a long time. Does that mean that his brother hadn't been out to make money for a long time? It was just relying on the little work points earned by his brother every month. How could he get the money to see a doctor for his brother? My heart is full of worries.

The little girl's worry is indeed Lu Jin's worry. Once he decides to take his younger brother to Shanghai to see a doctor next year, he is already planning to return to his old job.

Fortunately, he also bought a batch of chili peppers in July and August, and the chili sauce he made was stored in his space.There are not many fermented bean curd in the space, and he plans to make another batch of fermented bean curd.There are still two months before the Chinese New Year, and the sweets and snacks during this period will also sell well. He can take advantage of this time to make more sweets and snacks to sell.It's just that he hasn't done business for so long, and he doesn't know if his previous business partner is still there. He has to wait until he goes to the town to find out.

In the evening of that day, Lu Jin went to his sister-in-law Xiumei to ask if she could ask her natal brother to buy him another batch of peppers.

Ever since two men lived in Lu Jin's yard, Wang Xiumei seldom took her two sons to the next door to play. The two uncles took turns to help her take their sons out to play after dinner. Even washing dishes and tidying things up at home takes a long time.She was a little surprised to see Lu Jin coming to her. When she heard that she was going back to her mother's house to help him buy chili peppers, Wang Xiumei naturally agreed without saying a word, "All right, I'll go back and ask my brother tomorrow."

"Okay, please trouble sister-in-law." Lu Jin asked his sister-in-law again if there was a chili sauce workshop in Wangjiagouzi, but his sister-in-law couldn't tell, so he guessed that the chili sauce workshop might not have opened.

In fact, Lu Jin's guess was correct. The chili sauce workshop at Wangjiagouzi was indeed unable to open. The reason was that the team's team leaders and secretaries disagreed. Some people agreed to build a workshop. There were also objections, and people on both sides quarreled fiercely, and finally the building of the workshop was shelved.

***

The next afternoon, Wang Xiumei went back to her natal home with a basket on her shoulders to visit her parents, brother-in-law and a few nephews. She gave two pieces of floral cloth to her aunt and sister-in-law, distributed candy to a few nephews, and sat in the room with her relatives. After talking a few words with the sisters-in-law, the mother gave her elder brother a look and went out to talk about buying chili.

"Okay, you wait, I'll go and ask for you." As soon as Wang Chenglin heard that Lu Jin wanted peppers, he immediately asked his sister to go back to the house to wait for him. The family gathered the number of peppers together, went to the next door to borrow a mule cart, and tied several sacks of peppers to the mule cart, which took less than half an hour.

Knowing that her brother had bought everything, Wang Xiumei told her parents, sister-in-law and nephews that she was going back.

"All right, you guys go, go early and come back early." Father Wang knew that his eldest son had been helping others harvest peppers for the past two years, so their family's life was better than in previous years.However, everyone in their family knew that this matter should not be publicized everywhere. The whole family kept silent, and the children were not allowed to go outside to talk about family affairs.

After saying goodbye to her parents, brothers and sisters-in-law, Wang Xiumei boarded the mule cart waiting at the door.

The two brothers and sisters drove the mule cart towards Lujia Village. On the way, Wang Xiumei asked about their village, and Wang Chenglin couldn't help scolding the captains of the brigade, "If they can agree, our Wangjiagouzi The workshop will be built. This year, everyone has planted a lot of peppers. The price of peppers collected by the higher authorities has been suppressed again and again, and many people’s peppers can’t be sold. I thought that Xiaojin’s place didn’t want peppers. Fortunately, he Come to us to buy peppers, otherwise we would not be able to finish all the peppers we have left. The peppers in our house are alright, so I took them to Xiaojin earlier, other people are not as lucky as us. "

"Not every village captain is like your village chief. If our village chief had the courage, our village wouldn't be what it is now." Speaking of this, Wang Chenglin couldn't help but envy his sister's marriage The Lujia Village I went to has a good captain.

"Yes, it's true that my father-in-law and our village secretary are quite sensible." Wang Xiumei couldn't help but praised the captain and the secretary of their village in front of her elder brother, and also talked about the fact that their village has now been built. The matter of the brick and tile factory made her brother envious. L

Wang Chenglin: "..." He is also the team leader, so why is there such a big difference?
