There is Room for Rebirth in the 1950’s

In the living room outside the West Wing, Zhang's mother and three daughters-in-law gathered together to do household chores, busy with needlework. At this time, she listened to a rumbling voice, Whose house has guests here? Could it be that someone is looking for Xiao Wu?

Zhou Jiao and the others were surprised to find that just as soon as Mother Zhang said a word, the voice approached them.

The four of them looked at each other, and Zhang's mother immediately stood up and opened the door curtain to take a look, Oh, it's Xiao Wu who came back. Come out and have a look, why is there a little devil's tricycle?

Zhou Jiao and the others ran to the yard after listening. Seeing it, everyone laughed. Where is the kid's tricycle? Except for the model, the whole car has been changed strangely.

Not to mention, I've been watching it for a long time, it's pretty good. Where are you from, Xiao Wu? Lin Juhua stepped forward curiously and looked around.

Zhang Guoqing shook his hands and moved his hands and feet, It's hard to say, let me take a breath first. After speaking, Zhang Guoqing felt a little hot all over, and walked to the small living room with the things in the car bucket with both hands.

Zhou Jiao handed him a cup of hot water and asked him with a puzzled face, You won't drive this thing back from the provincial capital, will you? Where did you bring it back?

Zhang Guoqing looked at the gossiping sister-in-law in the living room, and said helplessly, I really drove back from the provincial capital. Those things were brought into the car by my godfather. What is doing bad things with good intentions? That's it.

Zhou Jiao looked at him strangely, Then why don't you find a driver and ask him to hang the car behind the car, and you take the car yourself? It's just a little extra money, there's no need to drive all the way back.

After Zhang Guoqing listened, he looked at Zhou Jiao foolishly. After a while, I covered my face with my hands, No wonder why I felt something was wrong? I was taken into a ditch by my godfather. He kept shouting to ride back quickly. I really rode back. On the road, I also encountered a car bound for the county seat. The car, it never occurred to me that it could be towed. It's a shame.

What he said made Zhang's mother and the others laugh out loud, it was rare to see Xiao Wu being confused.

Afraid of his embarrassment, Zhou Jiao changed the subject, Did you send a telegram back after my mother and the others got in the car?

You have done everything you told me. Mother, why are you the only ones in our family? Where are my father and the others?

Your father took the children to your uncle's house. Your elder brother went to have a wedding and will be back in a while. Didn't your aunt not come this time? Your father turned over overnight last night, probably to discuss things with your uncle. When Zhang's mother talked about her eldest sister, she was worried, worried that something serious would happen.

Zhang Guoqing stood up and said to Zhou Jiao: Jiaojiao, let me see what they say first? Seeing her nodding, he walked outside.

Zhang Guoqing came to Uncle Zhang's door, opened the door and went in. The layout of the yards of Zhang's three brothers is exactly the same. No need to think about it, they should all be in the main room. He entered the yard and found that except for the sound from the main room, the side rooms on both sides were closed. It should be that the women in the family had gone to work.

In the main room, Zhang's father and three brothers sat on the kang and smoked dry cigarettes, and each of them talked about homework.

As soon as Zhang Guoqing came in, Father Zhang asked him, How did you find it? Are you done with the provincial capital?

It's all done. I just came back, and I heard from my mother that you are worried about my aunt, so I don't worry about coming over to take a look. How is the discussion going? How many people are going this time? Zhang Guoqing moved a stool and sat on the side of the kang and said.

Father Zhang pointed to the two brothers, Your uncle and your younger uncle said to ask someone first to find out what's going on? Wait until you figure it out.

Zhang Guoqing looked at him, thinking about it or forget it. As a junior, there is no need to question the elders. According to his mind, he should go and have a look in the morning. Still waiting to inquire?

Uncle Zhang said to Zhang Guoqing: Xiao Wu, do you think we can go and pick up your aunt and uncle to live here this time? Uncle has thought about it, only your aunt and the others live in the village, far away from those people, so you don't have to live here. There will be troubles. It is a bad thing if this natal home is too far away. If there is something, I can't do anything.

Zhang Guoqing raised his eyebrows. It was difficult for him to answer this question. Uncle, do you mean that the aunt and aunt entered the village? Seeing him nodding, he asked him, Then aunt and the others are willing to let go of their children and grandchildren? Even if we build a house for aunt , will those cousins ​​agree? Don’t you say that the old man has a private house? Even if the aunts and the others come over, what will happen to those cousins ​​who often come to make trouble in the future? Our three families will not have a peaceful life.”

Uncle Zhang nodded in agreement, and interjected, Eldest sister won't move here. It's not like I haven't mentioned it before. When her father-in-law passed away, they asked their whole family to move to the village, but they didn't listen.

Zhang Guoqing saw that their old brother was frowning tightly, and asked curiously: Why don't the aunt and the old couple move out by themselves? They don't have to worry about living with their son.

Uncle Zhang sighed, Your aunt said that moving out by herself will affect her grandson's marriage in the future.

Zhang Guoqing understood his intention. It's nothing more than using the excuse of going back to her natal family to let them live in, away from those few bests. But things are so simple. Not to mention whether his aunt agrees, but just to live in, how will he support him when he gets old? Who takes care of them? This is not a few days and a few months, how can it be a simple lip touch to send the pension to the end.

No one is rich except him. Hehe, maybe, when his uncle asked him just now, he wanted him to propose to support the two elderly people to take over the burden. He doesn't care how much money is given, but who is willing to do such a stupid thing? A thankless task. Especially his aunt is still a foolish person, and with that blood-sucking leech, the house was emptied after only a few days.

Zhang Guoqing stopped talking, and sat quietly on the side to listen to their chatter.

As soon as the off-duty announcement sounded, Zhang Guoqing and his son left.

As soon as Father Zhang came out of Uncle Zhang's yard, his face was serious. Zhang Guoqing was also a little angry, seeing his father's face, he knew that he was right. Sighing secretly, he followed Father Zhang back to the room.

Fortunately, you figured it out. Don't let your mother know about your uncle's plan. Father Zhang leaned on the kang and said in frustration.

Zhang Guoqing nodded and teased him: You didn't look at me before I answered? Your old son is as you are, not stupid. It's not that your old son has no conscience. It doesn't matter if you give money or things, but you can't live in.

Father Zhang said in a low voice: Your uncle is smart. He is vague in his words and deeds. When I said to go and see your aunt, even your uncle had no objection, but he said to wait for him to get good news. Hey... he is the boss. , Listen to him. If I knew I wouldn’t discuss it with him, I went to see your aunt directly. Now I’m hanging.”

Father, have you forgotten that there will be elections in the next few days? I should go when the elections are over. Zhang Guoqing knew that the big brother's election would hold the time.

Father Zhang patted himself on the forehead repeatedly, but he really didn't get in touch. Your uncle asked about your second brother. He wanted you to help your cousin find a job. Don't go to their two families for a few days. When your elder brother's affairs are settled, let's go to the county to stay for a while.

Father Zhang saw Zhang Guoqing laughing in a low voice, and patted him hard, You think your father doesn't want to support your nephew? The problem is that it's so easy to find a job? It's hard to give so many nephews to anyone. Anyway, it's hard to behave inside and out, so I will When you don't understand.

Zhang Guoqing didn't want to hear those topics about work, and now he was concerned about supplies.

After dinner, Zhang Guoqing's three brothers followed Father Zhang back to the bedroom in the East Wing.

Zhang Guoqing talked in detail about several units that he has contacted so far. Today, auxiliary workers in textile factories, sorters in post offices, salespersons under grain bureaus, warehouse managers in supply and marketing cooperatives, and employees in meat joint factories are regular workers except for textile factories and post offices, and the other three are temporary workers. He tried his best to contact these jobs, and it all depended on how his elder brother chose. The final result depends on Zhang Guofu's own preferences.

Father Zhang was very excited when he heard this. These are all good units, even the city people can't squeeze in. He went to the county to find out about his in-laws.

Zhang Guofu lowered his head to think for a moment, then raised his head and said, My son's uncle means that no matter what unit you can enter, you can go in as soon as possible. If it weren't for Xiao Wu, no one would be able to enter the city. I know Xiao Wu must have put a lot of thought into it. Big Brother, don't you? Let me be polite to you. Look at the one that makes you owe the least and doesn’t require you to bleed a lot in the future. You can let your elder brother go to that unit. All five are good units, and which one is the best for me. You look at manage.

Zhang Guoqing looked at the simple and honest elder brother, the less he wanted to trouble himself, the more he wanted to find a good unit for him. He planned to find a good unit to go in first, then let his elder brother go to night school, and then find a relationship and change departments. At present, the most reliable relationship is the textile factory, and you will not be excluded if you go in. That day, I heard Uncle Chen say that there are many types of auxiliary workers, and there is still a way to change easily. The most suitable one is the salesperson under the grain bureau, with the neighbor Lao Chen around, and the temporary workers can also have room for discussion. The most important thing is not to worry about food in the future, and the commuting time is fixed and easy.

Zhang Guoqing thought about it and said: I am most satisfied with the salesmen under the Grain Bureau. It is not a big problem for temporary workers to become regular workers. The most reassuring thing for me is the textile factory, but it is too tiring to be on duty frequently. Second brother, help the eldest brother to figure out which one is suitable? These jobs need to be decided as soon as possible.”

Zhang Guoqiang has no opinion on these two jobs. He has been working for some time and knows the importance of backing. Furthermore, his eldest brother is a good-natured person, steady and shrewd, no matter where he is.

I think it's all right. Aunt Zuo is in the textile factory, and Uncle Chen is in the grain bureau. Big brother just pick one.

You don't need to choose, Food Bureau. Once you listen to it, you won't be afraid of running out of food. Boss, you listen to Dad this time. It must be the best to satisfy Xiao Wu. Father Zhang made a decisive decision without seeing his eldest son Moji.

The two brothers Zhang Guoqiang stared at Zhang Guofu and saw a smile on his face. The two looked at each other and smiled, it was a great event.

Seeing that there was nothing wrong, Zhang Guoqing stood up and said, Okay. In the past two days, I will talk to Lao Chen about how to change to a regular job. Big brother is ready to go to work next week, and I will go there with you. It's okay, I have to go.

Father Zhang hurriedly called to stop him, What's the hurry? Sit down quickly. Father still has something to do.

Zhang Guoqing sat down again, looked at him suspiciously, and waited for him to speak.

Father Zhang glared at him, and said slowly: Father and your mother have discussed it for a long time. Our family will be divided first, and the money will be distributed to you earlier. You have a job, and you can arrange it if you have money. And For this matter, Dad has to discuss it with you three brothers in private, so as not to make your brothers feel uncomfortable.

The three Zhang Guoqing brothers all let him speak casually. What else is there, nothing more than worrying about the uneven division of the family and the disagreement between the brothers.

Zhang Guofu is a good-natured person, and he feels that all the points are given to his brothers and not to others.

Zhang Guoqiang knew that he didn't have much to give to his family. The family's money is all earned by the eldest and the fifth. It's good to have money.

Father Zhang looked at his sons with smiles on their faces. He was secretly happy, You three brothers made money and handed it over to the family, and Dad started to keep accounts. Looking through the accounts these days, Xiao Wu paid the most money. But Xiao Wu, Dad can only let you and Jiaojiao suffer. You don't need to talk. Dad also knows you don't care.

Father Zhang stopped Zhang Guoqing to speak. Then he said, Tomorrow night, I will ask the elders of the clan to come over. You go back to your house and say hello to your daughter-in-law.

Seeing that everything was settled, Father Zhang asked them to go back to the house to rest.
