There is Room for Rebirth in the 1950’s

Every family has scriptures that are difficult for you to recite. No, Father Zhang frowned while lying on the kang at night, and took a few puffs of dry cigarettes. Thinking of what his elder brother said, he is also annoyed.

Mother Zhang came in with a bowl of rice porridge and urged him to drink it quickly.

Father Zhang was teased by his wife and laughed straight away, I can still believe that rice porridge will heal you when you have a cold. But I am upset, so I also use rice porridge. Mother, this is not worry-relieving soup.

Seeing his smile, Zhang's mother said cheerfully: Don't say it. This is really worry-free soup! Think about the white rice, how rare it is! What's better than having surplus food? My father raised it for me. The younger brother took some grain, and the second brother had surplus grain, and before he left, he said that he hoped that future generations would have surplus grain.”

Father Zhang laughed happily when he thought of his father-in-law.

Father, listen to me. If you don't save the poor, the elder sister is a bottomless pit. It stands to reason that life is not as difficult as it was in the past few years when there were continuous natural disasters. It is no problem to earn a stutter, but now it is said that there is a lack of food, so it is not To be honest. I think you helped too much before, she thinks we have a lot of money and wants to make up for a few children.

Father Zhang nodded, I don't understand this truth. At the beginning, they were dying, and I couldn't help them. Now...

Having said that, Father Zhang sighed, Brother is so smart, just say this, second child, I have too many children in my family, and my grandson will marry a wife, so I really can't help my eldest sister, just take care of her. You See how easy he said it, but it suffocated me.

What did uncle say?

Father Zhang smiled, My younger brother told me not to talk to Eldest Sister. He said that our three brothers helped Eldest Sister through the first two years, and it was enough for him. Even if his family had surplus food, he would not give it to a few white-eyed wolves.

Zhang's mother smiled and shook her head, No wonder you are annoying. Whose opinion should I listen to? Father, my younger brother and sister talked to me about something today. She said that her husband and wife are ignoring the family now, and now she The boss of the family is the housekeeper. According to her opinion, she is not willing to take care of the eldest sister, do you think the eldest sister offended her? Before, she often said that the elder sister's life is suffering, and she can help if she can.

Father Zhang sighed, a little hard to say. It's not my siblings' fault, it's everyone who gets angry. At that time, the three brothers agreed that they would give fifty catties of dried sweet potatoes first, and then they would take turns.

But who knew that the eldest sister didn't know what to say when she went back. The two elder nephews went to the village to ask for food the next day, and they actually said that their mother had told them that the two uncles owed them fifty catties of dried sweet potatoes. At that time, everyone was still eating in the canteen in the village. Everyone was so hungry that they almost choked their necks. Where did they get fifty catties of dried sweet potatoes?

In the end, those two little beasts were fine, and they didn't want to leave. It provoked a few people in the village to say some nasty words, what promised the nephew not to give food to take advantage of the public, but let the younger siblings bear their grudges.

Thinking of the characters of the two nephews, Father Zhang said cruelly: I will listen to my younger brother! If my elder brother asks me to help, let him come over to see if I still have food.

Zhang's mother laughed happily when she heard this, took the pipe from him and put it on the basket of the house, carried it outside, went back to the back of the room, put the mosquito net on, and said, Don't worry about this, it's not worth it. Let me tell you something. Things that make you happy.

Father Zhang nodded, waving his cattail fan, and waited for his wife to say the following.

When I go back today, many people ask me if Xizi wants to see him?

Father Zhang smiled and shook his head, Our eldest grandson knows what to do, let him choose. Look at the second child and the fifth child, they are what they like, so there is no need to worry about the couple.

That's what I said. My sister-in-law also told me that the child is a little pushy, and our old Zhang family has never been short of candidates. By the way, her family's iron egg also wants to see her. My sister-in-law said that Qingshan's daughter-in-law is worried about something now. , just worried about not being able to build a house. Do you think there is something wrong with her, and the eldest son can still be separated?

As soon as Tie Dan got married, Brother Yinsuo and the others followed. She is the child under the worry. The eldest brother mentioned this to me. At the time, the grandson was so happy, but now that he has grown up one after another, it is very difficult to get married. Listen. The old captain said that now mining of stones requires the approval of the commune, even building a thatched hut and wood requires approval from the team. Now it is not only difficult to find materials to build a house, but the cost is twice as much as in previous years.”

Zhang's mother felt that the niece and daughter-in-law were right when she heard what her wife said, but her house had a big yard, so she had no other choice but to let her sons live together.

After Father Zhang finished speaking, he didn't intend to mention it. It's better not to let my wife know about my elder brother's thoughts, otherwise I will be mad. He remembered the meaning behind what his elder brother said today, and smiled helplessly.

Don't say I don't agree, even Xiao Wu can't agree. When his old son was short of money, how could he sell the ancestral property he had given him.

That hundred yuan is not enough for the old son to take them around the capital. Not to mention the old son, even the grandson Ping An's private house has more than a hundred dollars. His elder brother really underestimated people!

...Father, do you think Xiaowu can live in the left yard and the right yard? Oh, fortunately, I didn't tell the public, otherwise it would make people jealous...

have a look! This is his old son's family property. There are only three sets of big courtyards in the capital city alone, so there might be another one. His elder brother was also worried that the young couple would have no money to go to school. From his point of view, no one has money, and it is impossible for his old son to have no money. The daughter-in-law he married was rich.

...Father, do you know how much money Xiao Wu has? Hehe... I asked Xiao Wu last time, and the fool actually joked that he couldn't spend it all, even if he worked hard. It would be great if it was true!

Father Zhang looked at his wife with bright eyes, knowing that she would not be able to sleep again that night. He smiled, Wait until the couple of them go to work will be endless. I've asked. A college student earns fifty-six yuan as soon as he goes to work. How much does the couple spend a year?

Zhang's mother pinched her fingers and calculated in a tangled manner. After a while, she said worriedly, Too much money is not a good thing. Do you see those landlords?

Father Zhang couldn't help laughing, and patted her, Sleep!

Mother Zhang lay down obediently, and still said uneasy: Do you remember that when anyone asked you if Xiao Wu had any money, they would all say that there is no income for going to college.

Father Zhang laughed loudly and nodded repeatedly. But my wife is right. Since ancient times, it has been true to say that wealth should not be revealed. I have to tell my old son a few more times.

Old lady Cheng said that if the Gu family hadn't collapsed, we, Xiao Wu and Jiaojiao, would not be able to spend all our money on rinsing our mouths with ginseng soup every day.

Father Zhang secretly rejoiced that the Gu family had collapsed, or else his old son was still alive? Brother Zhou's grandfather was murdered because he had so much money. It's better for ordinary people to live freely. He doesn't want his son to be rich, so it's fine now - he has no worries about food and clothing, and he's a face-to-face person when he goes out, and that's enough.
