Break out of the courtyard

After Zhang Heping walked out of the performance hall carrying Zha Zhahui, the two teachers hurriedly chased him out. They were relieved when they saw Zhang Heping walking towards the school director's office.

After a while, Zhang Heping came out of the director's office with his hands behind his back, no longer caring about the new student in the room who had become cowardly and was writing a self-reflection.

He didn't go to the performance hall to avoid being looked at like a monkey by them; Zhang Heping returned to the classroom, picked up his textbook and took a chance, then flashed back home while no one was paying attention.

Houhai Subdistrict Office still couldn't find a buyer, so Zhang Heping simply stopped making bamboo furniture and switched to making bamboo toys, as well as bamboo steaming grids, bamboo dustpans and other kitchen utensils.

The toys were first selected by my nephews and then sent to the street office together with the kitchen utensils.

On March 3, the National Science Conference started, but the Houhai Subdistrict Office had not yet found a new home, and they didn’t know what Director Qi did.

After the bamboo was used up in front of Zhang's house, no one sent new bamboo, leaving a circle of soil.

Her mother, Ma Xiuzhen, wanted to grow vegetables in the circle of soil in front of her door, but before she could do it, it was filled with wildflowers that Zhang Heping dug up from Xishan and turned into a flower bed.

By the way, it hasn't rained in the past two months, and there is some drought in the Western Mountains.

"The Chinese woman who placed an order for 30 woolen sweaters at the Canton Fair last autumn is very likely to come again this year. You can make a few sets of dresses for her tall European woman's figure. When the time comes, let She tries it on, and if she’s satisfied, you might get the order.”

Zhang Heping saw Ma Lili scratching her head, probably because she was not sure about the Ou Mei woman's size.

"Oh..." My eldest cousin Ma Lili was a little disappointed and said immediately: "These are designed by me. The factory allows me to bring a few pieces to the exhibition. Can you help me see which ones are suitable for taking to the Canton Fair to earn foreign exchange?"

But in Zhang Heping's past life memory, he did not remember that there was a drought this year, and he didn't take it seriously at first.

When Ma Xiuzhen was talking about this at home, it happened to be April 4, the day after the National Science Conference. Zhang Heping was reading the National Science and Technology Development Plan in the Capital Daily.

"Well!" Ma Lili put away her dress, carried the big cloth bag, and said with a smile, "Then I'll go back first."

"You look like you are reselling clothes!" Zhang Heping followed her out and sent her back with a big stick.

It said above that eight comprehensive science and technology fields that affect the overall situation, including agriculture, energy, materials, computers, lasers, space, high-energy physics, and genetic engineering, should be given top priority.

Until her mother, Ma Xiuzhen, received a call from her grandfather, saying that it was too dry this year and food production might be reduced, and asked Ma Xiuzhen to stock up on food!

When they arrived at No. 95 Courtyard, Zhang Heping warned: "Next time you carry a bag and go out, remember to be in the factory or go to the neighborhood committee to open a letter of introduction to avoid being caught."

To this end, Zhang Heping found paper and pen, drew several dresses that Ma Lili brought on the paper, and then marked the sizes of European women next to them.

Finally, there is a pattern of shirts marked with OMG men's sizes.

"Second aunt, second uncle, cousin..."

Ma Lili greeted everyone around, then put the big cloth bag on the ground and opened it under everyone's doubtful eyes, revealing a pile of shirts and dresses.

"You can stock up some, in case cousin's place is short of food." Zhang Heping responded casually, but still didn't take it seriously.

"I will be going to Huadu in a few days. I may not have time to go to the Canton Fair." Zhang Heping looked at the pile of clothes and estimated that they were going to be displayed at the Canton Fair.

Then, Ma Lili asked hopefully: "Cousin, will you participate in this year's Spring Canton Fair?"

"Don't use chemical fiber materials for shirts. They don't absorb sweat and foreigners don't like them." Zhang Heping picked up the collar of the shirt and rubbed it. "The collar is not bad. Go and work! Don't worry about whether you can earn foreign exchange. Your task is to think. How to manage those workers and see which factory leaders win the hearts of the people and which ones deceive the superiors and subordinates. "

"These formats are too small and are only suitable for export to Southeast Asian countries." Zhang Heping picked up a few dresses, looked at them, and said:

As soon as he mentioned his eldest cousin, Ma Lili walked into Courtyard No. 7 with a big cloth bag.

"Heping, do you think we should stock up on food?" Mother Ma Xiuzhen touched Zhang Heping, who was concentrating on reading the newspaper.

"Ok!"

Just when Zhang Heping lifted up the 28th big bar, turned half a circle, and was about to leave, he met Qin Huairu's family.

I saw Qin Huairu walking over quickly with her two girls, "Director Zhang, can you please help me?"

Zhang Heping glanced at 19-year-old Xiao Dang and 16-year-old Huaihua, and then looked at Qin Huairu, who had many white hairs on her head. He recalled for no reason the scene of her lying on the gynecological examination bed at Nanla Town Health Center, and frowned:

"Don't yell, I'm a student now, not the director."

"Yes, yes!" Qin Huairu smiled sheepishly, and then asked: "My Banggeng's labor reform is over, but the farm doesn't want him. Now he is assigned to join the queue in the countryside. Is there any way you can adjust Banggeng? Back to the city?"

"You gave Banggan the job in the steel rolling mill, didn't you just transfer him back?" Zhang Heping said and rode away.

Qin Huairu's job was very good in terms of the agreement. It was the position that Jia Zhang had fought hard for for his grandson. In terms of time, it was time to pay it back!

I want him to contribute and bring the stick back, haha...

On April 4, Zhang Heping went to school to ask about his graduation, but the director of the School of Drama couldn't tell him the reason. Zhang Heping simply asked for leave and went to the Canton Fair to help earn foreign exchange through exports. In fact, he went to Hong Kong Island.

My little wife Chen Shuting's due date is approaching, so I have to go and keep her company.

Because in the next few years, Zhang Heping did not plan to let her have another baby, so he had to stay with her for the first time, so as not to have any grudges in her heart and affect the subsequent plans for the island.

In the afternoon of the same day, his father Zhang Bing returned to his hometown to study, and Zhang Heping took the train south.

Grandma Xie Ermei has been gone for more than eight years. Zhang Cuishan, the eldest grandson of the Zhang family who she cares about, took the son Lou Xiaoe gave birth to to find a widow with three children, and moved away from Nanluogu Lane a few years ago.

Zhang Bing only went to see his grandson, but he never came to Courtyard No. 7 again.

This news was told privately by his mother, Ma Xiuzhen, to Zhang Heping. Zhang Heping was too lazy to care about Zhang Bing's affairs, so he chose to turn a blind eye.

Anyway, he had no intention of recognizing his relatives there.

April 4th, Friday, sunny!

When Zhang Heping returned to his home in Kowloon Tong at noon, his eldest wife Tang Xin was helping his younger wife Chen Shuting to take a walk to eat.

"Look! I said my husband will come back soon! You still don't believe it, you're still crying secretly while lying in bed at night!" Tang Xin reported to Zhang Heping with a smile on his little wife's scandal.

Facing Chen Shuting's nostalgic gaze, Zhang Heping smiled and said, "I just skipped class and came back. You have to hurry up and give birth. I still have to go back to class!"

"No!" Chen Shuting took Zhang Heping's hand, "I want to keep you pregnant longer and won't let you go back."

"Are you sure?" Zhang Heping touched his little wife's big belly and said with a bad smile: "You haven't been whipped by me in a few months? Don't you want to?"

"Humph!"

After going home to take a shower, Zhang Heping put his eldest wife Tang Xin unconscious on the bed, then helped his younger wife downstairs, and then went to Villa No. 8 to say hello to his father-in-law Tang Ming and mother-in-law Xu Jiefeng.

Afterwards, he returned to the living room of Villa No. 9 and read the newspaper on the sofa for a while. After the six children woke up at noon, he followed the car to send them to school.

That night, while having dinner in Villa No. 8, my father-in-law Tang Ming said worriedly: "Some people have escaped from Shenzhen recently."

Zhang Heping hadn't been to Shenzhen Town for a long time, but he didn't pay attention to the situation there.

Father-in-law Tang Ming continued: "The capital is sending an inspection team over. It should be related to the three-to-one supplement. You should keep a low profile recently and don't cause trouble."

"Also, you said before that the China Bank Building transaction exposed you. But nothing has happened to you until now. I guess there is something hidden in it. Just wait and see what happens!"

Zhang Heping nodded, "I'm just here to accompany Shuting to give birth to the baby. After I'm done here, I have to go back to work on graduation. I won't stay long."

It was too late for him to say "I won't wait long". The stinky old woman Chen Shuting said she wanted to be pregnant longer, so she insisted on being pregnant for 42 weeks.

If Zhang Heping hadn't wanted to have a caesarean section, Chen Shuting would have been stable for a few days.

On the afternoon of May 1978, 5, Zhang Heping's seventh daughter was born, named Zhang Nuo, implying that she was the promise her father Zhang Heping made to her mother.
