There is Room for Rebirth in the 1950’s

At night, Zhang Guoqing accompanied his parents and elder brother to go back and learned about these things from Zhang Meili who was staying in the small courtyard, but he still didn't believe it.

From his point of view, his elder sister's family has been taking care of Accountant Zhang and his wife these past few years, and the other party is not a fool, so why bother to lend his own yard to help his eldest grandson start a family?

Sister, are you misunderstood? I remember that his old house is not small, so there is no need to borrow my yard. Besides, the new daughter-in-law does not stay close to her to be filial, but lives far away. How can this happen.

Your brother-in-law is angry, can I be wrong? Zhang Meili lowered her voice and looked outside, You don't understand, but I guessed their petty thinking. My father-in-law has said many times before that the two of you have good geomantic omen.

Isn't he just thinking about his grandson borrowing your yard to get married and change his luck. Humph, he thought he was the only one who was smart. You must remember that if he really talks to you, you should ask them to ask Jiaojiao, they are afraid of Jiaojiao.

Zhang Guoqing laughed.

Be serious! I'm telling you business.

Zhang Guoqing nodded, Okay, I remember. Don't mention this in front of your brother-in-law, lest he be embarrassed.

Zhang Meili rolled her eyes at him, I still don't understand this.

Yes, my sister is the smartest! After boasting, Zhang Guoqing persuaded with concern, If they are biased, don't be angry, give them more money, and don't take them to live with them in the city.

What you said to the second child at the beginning is still effective.

Zhang Guoqing blinked, what did he say back then? He forgot.

Okay, my things are trivial, and I will handle them according to my needs. Our father knows these things in his heart, and you can go to work without worrying about it.

Zhang Guoqing is secretly happy. Didn't it mean that after the founding of the People's Republic of China, they were not allowed to become elites? It seems that no matter how much feudal superstition is suppressed, it is still deeply rooted.

Let's go to accompany Dad, he is going to call for someone.

As soon as the two siblings entered the bedroom, Zhang's father, who was already a little drunk, was waiting for them to come in with anticipation.

Your siblings are done talking? You are so mysterious, what can't you tell me?

Zhang Guoqing smiled, and sat next to him on the edge of the kang, Father, don't be reluctant to burn the fire wall at home, I will bring you more coal tomorrow.

What are you spending that money for? The room is warmer. Father Zhang thought about it, and said: Hold tight, don't spend all your wages.

Zhang Er Er immediately murmured in a low voice, You're lying again.

Hearing this, Zhang Guoqing immediately looked at the second child.

Zhang Laoer moved back a few steps with the chair, and after ensuring safety, he quickly complained, Xiao Wu, you don't know that parents don't burn the kang during the day, and I have been arrested several times, and they still don't admit it.

Father, is it because you don't have enough briquettes or are you reluctant to spend money? It's the cold winter months, you and my mother shouldn't take our bodies seriously. If it gets cold, I won't be able to make it back when I'm out of town, you Tell me, how do you feel? How much can you spend on briquettes for just a few months?

Father Zhang quickly shook his head, No...

Zhang Er immediately retorted: It's nothing? My eldest brother and I chopped so much firewood, why are you reluctant to burn it? It's so cold that it's nothing to spend money on going to the hospital. People don't suffer?

Father Zhang also knew that this was due to the children's filial piety, so he didn't blame him, and explained with a smile: It's not that your mother has been with your brothers during the day, and I'm not at home. Why burn it? It's okay to save some fire What, we go to the village every day to collect firewood, it’s not good looking and we’re too tired.”

As soon as Zhang Guoqing heard it, he knew that the firewood piled up in this house was not bought, but that his two elder brothers went to the village to collect firewood by themselves on their off days. It's very different from his strength, it's not that he's making fun of the two brothers.

Not to mention that in previous years, they prepared firewood for the winter by themselves, but now they each have two yards to prepare firewood. With his father, it is probably not enough.

No one sells firewood now? Where is the person who brought it here?

Zhang Laoer looked at him with contempt, Why buy something that doesn't cost money.

Zhang Guoqing was speechless. You cow, do it! Really stingy.

Don't look at me like that, I'm much better than my brother, and I bought a lot of briquettes.

Zhang Guoqing looked at the two elder brothers and secretly sighed. What a miserable day! He suddenly looked at Zhang Meili, Sister, didn't you buy it?

Zhang Meili listened for a while, isn't this normal? Why spend money to buy briquettes if you have firewood? She can exchange the briquette ticket for other tickets.

But she still explained, Your nephews are getting older, and they piled up all the firewood in the house, which is enough for me to burn. The briquettes are not easy to use, and it is too troublesome to start a fire.

Zhang Guofu also nodded in agreement, Indeed, it's expensive and has low firepower, and it still smells bad. Xiao Wu, don't worry, we will come to see if parents are not cold every morning and evening.

Father Zhang quickly interrupted. He wasn't interested in hearing about briquettes. Later, when his old son was going back to sleep, it was better to talk about other things.

Father, what do you want to know, tell me.

Father Zhang looked at him cheerfully, Xiao Wu, I think those people have a different attitude towards us Jiaojiao tonight, except for your old father-in-law's relationship, is it true that the unit she works for is really as famous as you, Uncle Dashan? .”

Zhang Guoqing nodded amusedly, and said half-heartedly: The unit is okay, but Jiaojiao has no right to go to work just now.

Won't anyone in that unit bully her? It's all my fault that I forgot to advise your father-in-law. It would be great if she went to the army with you, and you will protect her.

Zhang Lao Er laughed loudly, Father, you think she is as strong as this idiot, and it depends on whether she can handle it. Do you know what Uncle Zuo told me?

Father Zhang was unhappy, Do you still have something to hide from me?

No, no, that was just a joke. Zhang Lao Er scratched his hair, looked at Zhang Guoqing and said with a smile, Uncle Zuo said that Jiaojiao has a bright heart and a quick brain, which is suitable for the Planning Committee.

Listen to his nonsense, my daughter-in-law doesn't have a lot of thoughts, she is really smart. Zhang Guoqing immediately retorted, this is not a compliment, he is not happy to hear, Is he not planning to transfer now?

Several sons of his family went to the capital some time ago, did they see you? When it came to business, Zhang's second son suddenly had a different attitude.

Zhang Guoqing frowned and nodded, Uncle Zuo didn't mention it when he came tonight, and it's hard for me to ask because there are so many people. The two brothers from his family did come to the house last week. I happened to be going to work. Separated.

They didn't come over after that. As for me, I didn't have time to go to Zuo's house when I got to work. Did Uncle Zuo mention anything to you?

Zhang Lao Er lowered his voice, I think what he meant, I still want to transfer back. Do you have a good relationship with a family surnamed Geng?

Zhang Guoqing twitched the corner of his mouth, he really misjudged the person, his daughter-in-law Zhou Jiao would be more useful than himself for this matter, but he wouldn't say that.

Do you remember the four people who came to play a few years ago? That Geng Dazhi belongs to the Geng family, but his family belongs to your system, but they don't have such great power.

Father Zhang slapped his thigh with a slap, Oh, Mr. Dazhi, I know his grandfather. It's useless, that old man can't even deal with his own grandson.

Zhang Guoqing laughed happily when he heard it.

What are you laughing at, isn't Dazhi just going to work in some railway bureau? I have to find Shi... In the middle of talking, Father Zhang immediately shut his mouth tightly, almost showing his mouth.

Father, who are you looking for?

Father Zhang immediately shook his head, How do I know?

Elder Zhang didn't believe it, Father, if I don't tell Uncle Zuo, just tell us.

Father Zhang glanced at his second son contemptuously, What do you do if you know? The more high-ranking officials, the more particular they are. Our family is relying on your Uncle Zhou's face, and you put your mind in the right place. Don't think about it. Nope.

Father, I understand.

You know what! Mr. Zuo really wants to transfer your Uncle Zuo back. He has a lot of ways. Can he find us Xiaowu? We can repay the favor our family owes him, but if it involves the officials, it's still a rest. Your Uncle Zuo is a good person, but that doesn't mean the Zuo family is a kind person.

Zhang Laoer pondered for a moment, then looked at Zhang Guoqing.

Zhang Guoqing nodded, Old Zuo's focus is on his eldest son. If Uncle Zuo is transferred back to be an ordinary clerk, he might as well be here.

Zhang Lao Er sighed, Uncle Zuo is a very nice person.

Zhang Guoqing said with a meaningful smile: It's a blessing in disguise. A few years ago, he was transferred and still made a difference. Now he is better here than in the capital.

What do you mean?

Zhang Guoqing shook his head, he would lose his words, and changed the subject, Uncle Ye, are they okay? I want to take some time to see them tomorrow, and then go to see Mr. Huang.
