There is Room for Rebirth in the 1950’s

Father Zhang carefully put away the note. This one has to go back to the village to let his elder brother and younger brother take a look, and see that his grandson is a cultural person at such a young age.

At the intersection, the three relatives bid farewell to each other and went home separately.

On the way, Father Zhang saw someone carrying breakfast, thought for a while and went back to buy two deep-fried dough sticks, chatted with the chef of the restaurant for a while, and then headed back home.

Before reaching the door of the house, Wang Dasheng next door heard Zhang's father greeting someone, and hurried out of the yard, waving to him.

Father Zhang's eyes lit up, he walked up to meet him quickly, and looked at him cheerfully.

Brother Zhang, come over with Brother Chen tonight.

Brother, it's amazing!

Wang Dasheng watched him stick up his thumb, laughed happily, and said modestly: It's nothing, it's just scraps, just don't dislike it.

Yo, you're being humble again.

Father Zhang doesn't think so. Nowadays, meat tickets are so tight that these pigs can't be bought without acquaintances. For this, he also waited for several months.

Alas, if he hadn't promised his second son not to go up the mountain, he wouldn't be short of meat. Fortunately, my wife raised a lot of chickens, otherwise it would be a difficult life to rely on that little supply.

Then I'll go have breakfast first, and see you in the factory.

Father Zhang nodded with a smile, watched him enter the house, and then swayed into the yard with two fried dough sticks. I thought in my heart that if I had a lot of things, I would send more to Brother Aguang in the provincial capital. Well, bring some more vegetables over there!

Zhang's mother had long pasted a circle of steamed buns in the pot, and waited for his wife to come back to eat and go back to the village together. As soon as she heard the sound from outside the yard, she set out two vegetarian dishes early and grabbed a plate of steamed corn bread.

Standing at the door of the kitchen, she didn't say much when she saw the fried sticks in her wife's hand.

If it was normal, she would definitely dislike her wife for spending money randomly. But thinking that fried dough sticks don't appear often, and there are oily spots in the soup, she still took it cheerfully.

Father Zhang entered the kitchen, glanced at the stews on the dining table, and joked, You are really thorough. Be careful of the smell of oil in the house.

Zhang's mother laughed straight, It doesn't stink, I've seen it. I'll go back and bring some for my sister-in-law and younger siblings. This is a precious commodity, and it can be given as a gift.

Xiao Wu prepared it for us and kept it for ourselves. The cottonseed oil I received two months ago was given away. The oil is black, I didn't think it was before, but now it smells strange no matter how it smells.

Okay, I'll listen to you. Before the sun comes out, let's go after eating quickly...

Father, mother...

Hearing the shouts from outside, Zhang's mother quickly stood up, You eat first, why don't I go see the second child?

No need to go, my courtyard door is open, he will come in.

Mother Zhang thought about it, and responded loudly, calling for him to come in.

When Zhang Lao Er came in, he was also carrying two fried dough sticks in his hand. When he saw the fried dough sticks on the dining table, he grinned and said, I thought you guys didn't know, so I bought more and sent them here.

Father Zhang smiled and said, I just came back and saw someone carrying it, so I turned it back. Have you eaten yet? Your mother cooks a lot, sit down and eat.

I wanted to come over for dinner. Dad, how long will you stay this time? Do you want the children to accompany you there?

Father Zhang shook his head, Come back before dark.

Zhang Laoer took the bowl his mother handed him, and asked, Do you want me to find a car?

No need. We have already negotiated with someone. There is an ox cart in the team next door at the gate of the city. We will ride in his cart.

As soon as Zhang Laoer heard it, he knew that it must be someone from his team coming to the city to pull a dung truck. If you want to say don't go, think about it or forget it, you will be scolded if you say it. His father cherishes these farm fertilizers very much.

Is your brother coming back this weekend?

Zhang Laoer nodded, It's almost a month, he should be back. After finishing speaking, he paused holding Wowotou's hand, thinking that it's better not to spoil the fun in the morning, and it's not too late to talk about it in the evening.

Father Zhang took a look at his face after eating breakfast, What's the matter? Is there something wrong? Is it about the compendium staff?

Zhang Laoer asked in surprise: Father, you know everything?

Father Zhang nodded, I went to exercise in the morning these two days, and I heard those old men mention it.

Zhang Laoer asked in surprise: Father, are you not surprised? Why didn't you mention it to me last night?

Father Zhang rolled his eyes at him, and said with contempt: What a surprise! When arranging your eldest brother to go to work, Xiao Wu said that he and Jiaojiao had analyzed it. It will happen sooner or later. You think your brother will talk nonsense ?”

Zhang Er Er slapped his forehead hard, and said annoyedly, I forgot. Dad, do you think this is a wicked thing? After five or eight years, all of you will return to the countryside after taking part in work, and my eldest brother and I just happened to be away. In terms of timing, Brother You Qi just happened to be a few days ahead of schedule. Uncle Zuo said that our two brothers were lucky, otherwise we would have to go home and farm.

Father Zhang smiled, So I'm going back to the village today to offer incense sticks to your grandma.

When Zhang's mother heard this, she nodded quickly, Yes, it's all the blessings of the ancestors. You left last night, and your father went to find your Uncle Chen. Your Uncle Chen said that this is a good thing for your elder brother. Don't say that. .”

Zhang Laoer smiled wryly: Mother, I'm not stupid. But, have you forgotten that both of your daughters-in-law will lose their jobs?

Father Zhang patted his son, It's good that you two brothers can stay. People, don't be too greedy. You have to think about the good. If you two brothers don't change their household registrations, they will go back to the village and even provide supplies. Food is gone.

I've made inquiries for you. If they don't have a job, they can still go to the streets to get jobs and go home to work. It just so happens that the two of them can take care of the children at home.

Zhang Lao Er nodded, I don't have much burden, but Chrysanthemum has no job. She can still knit a sweater for others and make a dress to supplement the family. I'm not worried. But brother...

Mother Zhang smiled and said softly: That would be better. Do you think your sister-in-law paid your brother's salary? If you don't have a job, just stay at home honestly and you won't get any trouble.

Father Zhang agrees with his wife's idea, and it is estimated that the old couple have discussed this matter in private.

He also went on to say: It's useless for anyone to ask for mercy. Her mother's family has given up their minds and asked Xiao Wu to help. I think the same as your mother. She still has to stay at home and rely on your brother. She doesn't dare to make troubles. .

Don't worry about your elder brother, I think he is capable now. This time when he comes back, he should get a promotion and raise his salary. Now that he has a yard to live in, it won’t cost him much money for the children to go to school.

After hearing this, Zhang Lao Er looked at his parents' faces, and found that they were really worried, so he finally breathed a sigh of relief. Isn't he worried about them worrying.

Father Zhang smiled gratifiedly when he saw this. The second child in his family is a selfish ghost, but in the end he still has one of his greatest strengths, being filial to his parents and loving to his brothers. He didn't ask his son to change his son, and that was enough.

In the past two days, he watched those old men worry about their children's work, and he took it easy. When I was so poor, I and my wife were able to bring up the children. Now that we have such conditions, there is nothing to worry about.

Maybe that's still a good thing. Since ancient times, adversity is easy, and wealth is difficult. It's the same thing with this couple. Why did the eldest daughter-in-law change so quickly?

It's not because he gave her too much money to divide the family, and the old son arranged jobs for the two elder brothers at once.

In this way, without worrying about the future, her mind will be active naturally. When I have money, I start to tremble. In the final analysis, my heart is still unstable, and my eyelids are too shallow.

If you lose your horse, you will know it is not a blessing. This will be ah, it's good to keep that child tempered. Otherwise, with the disposition of his eldest son, if an honest man is in a hurry, no one will be able to stop his decision.

That family can't leave! He watched coldly for so long, the child is still a good child, and he has spent such a difficult time with his family without any complaints, and this alone can indeed afford the eldest daughter-in-law.

People can't be beaten to death with a stick. When no one makes a mistake, just change it. The wife is the original partner, and the son is also a sibling.
