Reborn Soul: Me and My Family

A few days later, Zhou Ma found an excuse to ask someone for another bicycle ticket and bought a 3-bar bicycle. These days, Ouyang Qing and her brother and sister are picked up and dropped off at school by Ouyang Zhen and his son on bicycles. Now the family has three bicycles. The neighbors know a little about the reason for buying the bicycles, but they only sympathize with them and do not envy them. The reason is that all the residents in the alley know about the human traffickers. For several days in a row, comrades from the street office and the police station went door to door and to schools to publicize the matter, and popularized all the things that may happen after being abducted. The public security bureau and the school also gave each of them 15 yuan as a reward for catching the human traffickers.

You should know that now the highest salary for a formal worker is only about 30 yuan. Several people got 30 yuan each at one time, which made many students envious. Although Liu Erzhi and Ma Youcai's money was taken away by their mothers before they could even warm it, they were still left with 1 yuan as pocket money. Although it is a bit little, it is better than nothing. On the black market side of the cotton mill, since Uncle De received two large quantities of goods, his business is getting bigger and bigger.

When the second batch of goods arrived, he only kept half of the amount, and sold the rest to Beijing. The demand there is huge, and the price offered is much higher than here. Now his younger brothers come here every day to ask him for goods, and he is very passive. But every time it is Ouyang Qing who comes to him, and she can't send anyone to find Ouyang Qing, for fear of angering her and she will not supply him with goods in the future. Of course, this is all later. At the H Province Railway Station, two ladies in flowered cotton jackets supported each other as they got off the train. If Wang Dahua was here, she would realize at the first moment that these were her own clothes. These two ladies who walked slowly and wore headscarves on their heads were Huang San and Agou, whom the police station had been looking for in the past few days.

Along the way, Agou remembered Huang San's instructions and didn't say a word. When others talked to him, he just babbled to get by. The reason why Huang San didn't let him speak was that Agou's voice was particularly rough, and as soon as he opened his mouth, others knew he was a man. When the two of them were leaving the station, Huang San immediately noticed the police inside and outside the platform, but he was particularly good at disguising himself, and he swaggered out of the train station.

Huang San originally planned to come here to have a good rest for a while, but he didn't expect those policemen to be so difficult to deal with. He immediately decided to take Agou to his relatives' home in the mountains to stay for a while to avoid the limelight. The two did not dare to stay in the city for a moment, but bought bus tickets to the county below and left in a hurry. Ouyang Bai, who had completed his mission here, returned to the Southwest Military Region where he was posted.

In the past, whenever Ouyang Bai came back from completing a mission, he would receive letters and packages from home. This time, he had been out for such a long time and not only did he not receive any packages, he didn't even receive a letter. This had never happened before in all these years. Now everyone in the family was out during the day and they would not be back until the evening.

After weighing the pros and cons, he decided to call the steel factory where Ouyang's father worked. The call was made to the production office. Beep...beep...the phone rang several times before it was picked up.

"Hello~ Hello, this is the production department. Who are you looking for?" A female voice came from the other end of the phone. Ouyang Bo immediately said, "Hello~ Hello comrade, my name is Ouyang Bo, looking for your director Ouyang Zhen. I am his eldest son. Is he in the office now?" Luo Qinxiang on the other end of the phone heard that it was the eldest son of the Ouyang family, and immediately smiled and said, "Abo! I'm your Aunt Luo. Your father just went to the workshop for something. He has been gone for a while and will not be back for a while. What do you want to talk to him about? If you are in a hurry, please wait a while and call me again. I will help you call him."

Aunt Luo from the neighbor's house works in the production department just like his father. Ouyang Bo also heard about it from his mother, so he immediately shouted, "Hello, Aunt Luo, it's nothing serious, so I won't bother you. I just haven't received a letter from home for a long time, so I want to ask my dad if there is anything going on at home recently. Otherwise, can you tell him to go to the post office with my mom after get off work to call me back, okay?"

Luo Qinxiang on the other end of the phone paused and said immediately: "Ah Bo, don't worry! This is not a big deal. I will definitely help you convey it, but don't you know anything about your family's affairs?" Hearing the latter sentence, Ouyang Bo hurriedly said: "Aunt Luo, I heard you say that my family has had some problems recently? To be honest, I have been doing field training in the mountains recently and only came back yesterday. Aunt Luo, can you tell me in detail what happened in my family?"

Luo Qinxiang regretted the moment she said that last sentence. If she didn't explain it clearly, the child over there would be so worried that he would die. At this point, the child would be worried whether she said anything or not. She hesitated and said, "Abai, you speak too quickly. Don't mind me. I'll make a long story short. A few days after you returned to the army, your family was reported and the Red Guards came to search. Someone framed your family, but don't worry. The person was caught on the spot and was sent to the most difficult farm for labor reform. Don't worry over there, your family is fine now. Everyone is fine. People who do bad things will never have a good end." Ouyang Bai on the other end of the phone had bloodshot eyes and his fists were clenched so tightly that the veins on his arms were exposed.

After adjusting his mood, he said hoarsely: "Thank you, Aunt Luo, if you hadn't told me, I wouldn't know so many things happened in my family. Aunt Luo, something must have happened in my family again, right? Otherwise, it would be impossible for my mother not to contact me for such a long time. Can you just tell me everything?" Since the matter has been said, this one doesn't matter.

Luo Qinxiang continued, "It is true that something happened. Your Qingqing and Xiaoheng were almost abducted by human traffickers on their way to school. Speaking of this, I have to praise Qingqing. Your sister is smart. She actually teamed up with the two boys from your Uncle Liu and Uncle Ma's families to trick the human trafficker into the police station. The people from the school and the police station held a meeting to praise them these days. Fortunately, the human trafficker had no accomplices at the time, otherwise... Well, I won't say more. Your parents were just scared. A few days ago, your mother asked someone to get a bicycle ticket and bought a bicycle for your second brother. Now your father and your second brother pick them up every day, but the leader of the human trafficker has not been caught yet. I heard from your Uncle Liu that he ran away, and the police station sent many people but couldn't find him. Don't be too anxious, okay? I will tell your father about this later."

If I didn't make this call today, Aunt Luo would have accidentally let it slip, and my parents would probably have kept it a secret from him to avoid making me anxious! "Aunt Luo, thank you so much, tell my dad that I'll be waiting for their call by the phone after he gets off work, then I'll hang up first and won't disturb you at work, and~ sorry to bother you," she said a few more words and hung up the phone.

Zhou Guilan, who was at work, had not yet realized that she had not sent a letter to her eldest son for a month. After hanging up the phone, Ouyang Bai from the military region walked out of the office and punched the wall. The blood from his fist flowed down his fingertips. He had a blank expression and a gloomy face.
