There is Room for Rebirth in the 1950’s

Going to visit Zhao Dashan is not as simple as talking about it. Now that we have gone to the county, we can't forget Zuo Lin and Uncle Ye. Such a trip will change the plan for the next day.

Zhou Jiao just wanted her husband and sons to have a good rest.

Coincidentally, Zhang Guoqing also wanted to take his wife out for a day.

So, after dinner, the couple began to pack up quickly in a tacit understanding. For example, when a family changes clothes, they always ask for gifts when they come to the door.

After returning to the county seat, each of them separated first, and each went to find his own mother.

In the small courtyard, Zhang's mother, who was thinking boredly about whether to leave her working wife behind, saw her old son and his family coming in, and immediately greeted her with a big smile.

You bad boy, why are you taking the children for a night walk at such a late hour? You can't do it tomorrow. Have you eaten yet? Mother will cook something delicious for you.

Looking at Zhang's mother, Zhang Guoqing felt warm in his heart, this is maternal love. The mother would always ask her son immediately if he was hungry, if he was cold, if he was fat or thin.

Mother, I've eaten, don't be too busy, your son is still hungry.

He was about to go up to talk to his old lady, but before he took a few steps forward, Zhang's mother had already passed him, bending over and hugging a pair of young sons.

Come on, he fell out of favor again.

With Zhang's mother taking care of the children, Zhang Guoqing felt relieved. Seeing that it was getting late, he took Zhou Jiao and two bottles of wine to Zhao's house not far away.

In the past two years, Zhao Dashan's yard has added a wing room. It seems that the two sons have married, and whether they are with them or not, the parents still don't forget to reserve a room for them.

You guys still know to come here? Zhao Dashan was playing with his grandson in the yard, when he saw their husband and wife coming in, he jokingly raised his voice, Daughter-in-law, Jiaojiao is here, open a watermelon.

Uncle, why are you being so polite? Just have a glass of water.

Zhao Dashan gave him a funny look, You are so beautiful, I used it for entertaining Jiaojiao, and it's almost the same for you to eat melon skin. I haven't seen you for more than two years, and you are getting stronger again.

Zhang Guoqing put down his drink and raised his arms for comparison, Exercising every day, look, it's all muscles.

Well, the limbs are more developed.

When Cheng Hongli came out, she just heard it, and chuckled softly, I'm already a grandfather, like a child. Xiao Wu, hurry up and eat watermelon with Jiaojiao.

When Zhao Dashan was told by his wife, he smiled disapprovingly, pointed to the long bench beside him and motioned them to sit down, How is Brother Zheng?

My dad was on a business trip before we came here, and there has been trouble over there recently. He's a little busy. Zhang Guoqing took a piece of watermelon and handed it to Zhou Jiao.

The child in Zhao Dashan's arms stretched out his hand to snatch it, making Zhang Guoqing smile with joy, Is this the son of the Red Soldier?

Yeah, can you see that too?

Zhang Guoqing smiled at Cheng Hongli: Food like his father.

Cheng Hongli laughed out loud when she heard this. I guessed right, this is really the eldest son of Zhao Hongbing. In the past few days, she just let her grandson come over to play when she was on vacation.

Uncle, how are you doing recently?

Zhao Dashan shook his head, Here comes a military representative who organizes ideological studies every day. Now the streets are full of little boys with red cloth heads tied to their arms. They are so crazy that the whole world can't contain them.

Cheng Hongli called Old Zhao in disapproval.

Zhao Dashan waved his hand, The couple are not outsiders. I will be careful outside.

Cheng Hongli gave Zhou Jiao a wry smile, stood up with her grandson in her arms, My mother and I entered the house. Your uncle is feeling overwhelmed, so ask Xiao Wu to persuade him.

Zhou Jiao looked at Zhao Dashan worriedly, and followed her into the house.

At first, your uncle wanted Ping An and the others to stay in the city. Later, when he heard that you were coming over, he thought it would be better for them to stay in the countryside. Don't listen to what he says and don't come to see him sooner.

Zhou Jiao smiled and nodded.

Did you see groups of young people when you came here?

Zhou Jiao really saw it, and checked the suspicious people around, and picked some soft persimmons by the way to make some oil and water. Those were all young men of seventeen or eighteen, and for some reason they did not go to the countryside.

Did they embarrass you? There is an inspection office in the county, and these young people belong to it.

Two of them seem to know Xiaowu and Yuntao. By the way, Yuanyuan and her family of three came with us. She said that she was in a hurry to catch the car and came back to see you and uncle next time.

What happened to these young people from the inspection office, Zhou Jiao didn't ask any more. It's nothing more than someone behind him or a firm foothold in the early stage.

What kind of county inspection office? These are self-proclaimed organizations, but they really have the power to intervene. Even the police department has given way to such a self-proclaimed organization for many things these days.

Oh, then you should recognize who Xiao Wu is. Now the members of the production team below come to visit relatives in the city, and they have to check if they bring too much stuff. I wanted to buy some cotton last year and send it to your family, but unfortunately all of them were cut off. .”

Zhou Jiao smiled and said: I haven't thanked you yet, my mother likes the cotton cloth you sent over.

Every year, your mother sends me a lot of things, so why not be polite. The homemade cloth is exchanged in a nearby village. I will ask about it later.

Zhou Jiao quickly refused: There are still some at home, enough. I heard from my mother-in-law that there is a Revolutionary Committee, and now the investigation is very tight. There is no big mistake if you are careful.

Seeing this, Cheng Hongli smiled, and changed the subject to talk about other things. She knew that no matter how long it had passed, the situation could not be changed easily, and this girl was still very cautious in doing things.

Outside the house, Zhao Dashan was talking to Zhang Guoqing about the changes in the county in the past few years, especially in the last year.

Mr. Liu's two sons still didn't escape. They were the first batch to be defeated the summer before last. I heard that even the old friends of the old man in the provincial capital couldn't be kept.

The things that were smashed at the beginning were driven by trucks from our side to the eastern suburbs scrap yard. The trucks were still provided by our unit. I am worried...

As soon as the Revolutionary Committee was established, Li Aiguo was very capable. He stabilized immediately, and the others were devolved and walked. The only two surviving units are our unit and the Zuolin Bureau. Guy, it is estimated that he was almost washed inside.

Zhang Guoqing didn't need to look at his expression, he knew the degree of danger from his words. Although he was in the army, he had heard a lot of rumors that bullets were flying randomly in some places.

Even forty-nine cities can be decisively defeated by force, not to mention the mountains are high and the water is far away. He didn't even know what language to use to comfort Zhao Dashan.

It's not just ours. Do you still remember the reeds by the river in the northern outskirts of the provincial capital? Zhao Dashan frowned, When the reeds were the most severely hit, five people were killed and how many people were injured. There is no way to count.”

How did Zhang Guoqing not know? There are not only wild ducks and river fish in that big wild river, but also more snakes and insects in the reeds. At that time, many little devils were buried.

Opening a fight over there is really ignoring feudal superstition and ignoring human life. He didn't know whether to call those people young and ignorant or brave.
