There is Room for Rebirth in the 1950’s

Zhang Guoqing rode a bicycle and set foot on the village in the dead of night. Zhang's mother appeared at the door of the house. Seeing someone riding a bicycle from afar, she shouted loudly: Is it Xiao Wu?

The loud voice was unexpectedly harsh in the dead of night, causing the dogs not far away to bark, but in Zhang Guoqing's heart, his mother's voice sounded like the most beautiful music in the world.

He kicked forward a few times vigorously, seeing his mother running out in a hurry, he quickly looked and shouted: Oh, my mother, be careful, don't run, stay there and don't move.

In the blink of an eye, he rode his bike in front of Mother Zhang, Mother, it's so cold, why did you come out? Don't wait next time. What should I do if I fall in the dark?

Seeing that his mother didn't speak, she just laughed. He felt warm in his heart, and the cold wind at night didn't bring him any chills. He pushed the car and followed into the yard. Looking at the extinguished kerosene lamp on the ground, he smiled helplessly. His father should have asked him to light this lamp. His mother was really economical and didn't waste it at all.

Mom, are you worried that I haven't come back yet? I went to school today to run some errands, and then Zhang Yuntao and Li Qinglin followed me to the provincial capital to return the car. They were going shopping, so they were late. Everyone had dinner in the county. The big bowl of noodles we ate in the restaurant. After we finished eating, the master chefs in the restaurant would drive us home, or we would have to be dragged to the school for them. Next time I go somewhere and don’t come back on time, don’t go out and wait, if you are not careful I fell down, and no one saw it, so what should I do?

Mother Zhang nodded with a smile, and looked at the book in his hand, Yeah, I see. You bought so many books again? Can you finish reading?

Today, I went to the principal of the county middle school to ask how to get a high school diploma. You need the diploma and proof of residence to register for the university entrance examination. In the end, the old principal was a good person and said that Jiaojiao and I were the first and second in the county. He tried to suspend my studies for me. It’s still too late to make up the formalities, not counting our white exams. I just made up the formalities for two people. The tuition and books are three yuan a semester, and the new books in it are issued by the school. Books. There are not many old books.

Mother Zhang said in surprise: Then you still have to go to school?

You don't need to go to school. You will still have to pay the tuition fee for each semester when the school starts, and then write a leave note. You have to take the exam after the exam every semester. After all, I am going to school this semester. Mom, where is Dad?

The old principal is really a good man. He came here a few times before, pulling your father and telling you to go back to school. Mother doesn't understand these things. You listened to him right. Your father is inside, you go first to see Jiao Jiao, she must be in a hurry.

Zhang's mother followed him into the small living room, saw Zhou Jiao standing by the door listening with gusto, and said with a smile, Now we have two high school students in our family. Don't rush to read this time, wait until you do something. Let's see you in good confinement.

Zhou Jiao nodded happily and kept her eyes on the book. She really wanted to read the general content of the book. She heard that the admission rate was very low, so she didn't know what to test.

Zhang Guoqing put away his things, took his mother to sit down, took out the sheep belly and opened it for her to see, This is bought in the provincial capital. The market we went to last time has not been thoroughly explored. I heard that there is a night market in the evening. The things sold are all defective products from those factories in the provincial capital, many of which are secretly sold. There are also a few snack bars in the alley, and the haggis soup business is booming. The kid went there with his grandfather and took us through the back door.

After finishing speaking, Zhang Guoqing took a pair of chopsticks, divided half of the bowl and stood up, Mother, are you here, or go out with me? I'll go find my father and give him a taste. Jiaojiao, don't eat it first, I'll take it with you. I’ll cook the soup for you when I come back.”

I'll accompany you, find your father, and see if your father is overjoyed?

Zhang Guoqing hinted to Zhou Jiao to wait for him to come back. Seeing that Zhou Jiao nodded, when she entered the bedroom, she chatted with Zhang's mother about homework and walked to the main room.

In the main room, Father Zhang was sitting on the kang, holding a pipe, with his neck stretched out, looking out from time to time. He had expected that Zhang Guoqing would come to him when he came back, so he waited in the main room. His family's Xiao Wu had a habit when he was young, no matter where he came home from, he would come back to say hello to his wife.

Seeing Zhang Guoqing come in with a plate, Father Zhang frowned, You have something to keep for yourself in the future, don't just give it to Dad. You are so busy every day, you have to make up for it, don't look young now If you are in good health, you will be careless.

Zhang Guoqing nodded with a smile. As for whether he does it or not, that's his business, he just accepts his father's wishes. He picked up a few pieces of lamb stomach with chopsticks and stuffed them into the mouths of his father and his mother. Watch them expectantly, waiting for their comment on how it tastes. He really thinks that this sheep tripe is easy to chew and has a moderate taste, neither salty nor bland.

Mother Zhang chewed it carefully, swallowed it and said: This is really well done, we can't do it. The shopkeepers are all craftsmen, and they have unique skills, so don't spread it to the outside world.

Father Zhang glanced sideways at his wife. This woman is really good, and the taste can only be described as mediocre. Otherwise, Xiao Wu would bring them back to them after hearing that he would not be able to go to the provincial capital later.

Looking at the expression of his youngest son, he couldn't wait to know if it suits their taste. If it suits him, he will probably be brought in tomorrow. Ouch, this prodigal son. Father Zhang is both gratified and worried about this son. Fortunately, he married the right wife, otherwise the speed of making money would not be able to keep up with the speed of spending money.

Okay, it's delicious. You can't eat this food often, just taste it. Your mother's cooking is delicious. Look, dad hasn't gotten tired of eating it for so many years.

Zhang Guoqing laughed loudly, Yes, I think mother's food is the best. You can see that we are all tall and strong. The sisters are a match and a water spirit. Dad, do you have anything to tell me? If not, I will Let's go to rest first. I have to get up tomorrow morning.

Father Zhang shook his head and waved his hand quickly, It's all right. You can hear everything at home if you have something to do. Go and rest. You don't have to get up early tomorrow. There is no work at home. You don't have to get up earlier than a chicken.

Mother Zhang sighed when she saw him walk out of the main room. Father Zhang looked at him curiously, he really couldn't figure it out, what else could make her sigh? His son is filial, and his daughter-in-law is obedient.

What's the matter? Are you worried?

Mother Zhang sighed softly, and said softly: I just think that if Xiao Wu is admitted to university in the future, won't he be unable to see her even if she goes out?

Father Zhang coughed with a smile, pointed at her with his finger, and said with a smile, You are worrying unnecessarily as Xiaowu said. I worry about things that have not yet been shadowed. Besides, they passed the exam. Believe it or not, they have to persuade her Let's go there together? Didn't you see that our little five hasn't grown up yet, and we always have to look for our parents when we come out? He has no plan at all that we won't live with him in the future. Do you believe it or not? The county seat will definitely find an excuse for us to go up and help?

I can guess what both of them are thinking. After planning to separate, let's follow the boss on the bright side, so as not to embarrass the boss. But secretly they are definitely pulling us to live there. As far as Xiaowu and Jiaojiao are concerned, they eat white rice by themselves, so they will let us eat steamed buns in the old family?

As for after they are admitted to university, we will live in the capital when we have time. Isn't our Jiaojiao still a big courtyard? Afraid of not having a house to live in? If you are not used to it, go back to your hometown to see the eldest and the second. What do you want to do? They will buy the train tickets, and the train will go directly to home.

Hehe, that's right, we really don't have to worry about it. We can go to the house of the son we want for a few days to see the grandson. Oh, I'm so confused.

Father Zhang shook his head with a chuckle, and comforted her: Don't worry. Your old son has arranged the whole family carefully, and he will never worry us. You just have to know it in your heart, and don't reveal it to the outside world. He handles things She is more considerate than anyone else, so there is nothing to worry about. Others and their daughters-in-law are making trouble, but our Jiaojiao is so filial. Since Xiaowu has everything to say, will she not count? Support Xiao Wu to do it. This shows that this little daughter-in-law is really good.
