On the first weekend after school started, Wang Zhaozhao and his friends returned to Hebian Village.
Wang Dahai must go back to repair the canal.
Wang Sanbing did not go back. He worked in the store. Unlike the workers in the factory, he did not have one day off every week.
Generally there are two days off per month, and you can decide which two days you want to take.
If you really have something to do, you can ask for leave. Generally, you can ask for one, two or three days, and your salary will not be deducted.
"Sister Zhao, I'm a little nervous."
Wang Baojia and Wang Weiguo went back to the village together. After entering the village, Wang Baojia actually felt homesick.
"Then let Weiguo lead you."
“…”
Wang Baojia stopped talking.
They had been home for a while when Wang Xingwen and Wang Xingwu came back from outside carrying a load of dustpans.
It can be seen that he went out to pick up pig manure.
Wang Zhaozhao felt a little uncomfortable, but there was nothing to say about it. There were other people of the same age as them in the village doing this kind of work.
According to the conventional concept, they are already grown-up boys, especially Wang Xingwen, who is already fifteen years old and will be eating the food of a sixteen-year-old this year.
There are several people in the village who are the same age as him. They have already found wives and may get married next year.
Wang Xingwen is now in the fifth grade.
"Zhao Zhao, you're back." Wang Xingwu greeted with a smile, snatched the empty dustpan from Wang Xingwen's shoulder, and ran quickly to the backyard.
Wang Xingwen went to the well to fetch a bucket of water, filled his face with it, dipped his hands in the water, and patted his body with it.
Hunting dung is very smelly, but if you pick up pig dung, it will be pickled and flavored.
Wang Xingwu ran back and was called by Wang Xingwen, so he also tidied up a bit.
Then, everyone sat together and talked.
Wang Xingwu was particularly interested in Wang Baojia and his friends' transfer to the county town to go to school, and couldn't help but ask a few more questions.
Let Wang Baojia satisfy his desire to share.
"Brother, how are your studies going recently? Have you encountered any problems? Bring them together and let's discuss them." Wang Zhaozhao felt that it was about time, so he interrupted Wang Baojia.
It has to be said that she was a little afraid that Wang Xingwen would suddenly "figure it out" and just let it go after finishing elementary school.
In fact, he used to go back to the village once every month or so, but maybe it was the New Year in between. Now Wang Zhaozhao was sitting at the door of the main hall at home, and he always felt like something was missing.
"I have accumulated some questions." Wang Xingwen nodded, got up and went back to the house to get books, paper and pen.
Wang Baojia pursed his lips and muttered, "Sister Zhao is always like this."
After a few words, he started asking about my studies.
"Ah... Second brother, I was wrong, I was wrong." Wang Xingwu grabbed his neck from behind and he begged for mercy repeatedly.
We had dinner together tonight, and Xie Ailian brought her three daughters-in-law to prepare a large table of dishes.
Wang Fangbing and Wang Sanbing were not there, so Wang Dahai had a drink with Wang Erbing and Wang Sibing.
When the topic of canal repair came up at the table, Wang Dahai directly expressed his idea and asked Wang Erbing to consider it. Zhang Xiu'e immediately said excitedly, "Yes, yes."
23 yuan a month.
However, no one paid any attention to her.
"I can take a look at the first month first, and then... if I can handle it, I'll do it." Wang Erbing said.
"What's so hard about this? For a man who is used to farm work, repairing the canal is not too much to bear, even if it's a little hard." Zhang Xiu'e immediately shouted in dissatisfaction.
Xie Ailian glared at her, "Shut up, don't let me spank you."
This is a vicious woman who doesn't care about her man at all.
She only heard that there was money to be made. Anyway, she wasn't the one doing the work, and she wouldn't be the one to work herself to death.
Zhang Xiu'e pursed her lips but didn't say anything else.
Xie Ailian couldn't help but say to Wang Erbing, "Second brother, your body is your own. Do what you can and don't force yourself."
"Mom, don't worry, we are well prepared." Wang Erbing nodded silently.
He had thought it through clearly a long time ago.
Wang Zhaozhao doesn't need to be taken care of. Why would he have to work himself to death to support Wang Jingjing?!
After staying in the village for one night, after lunch the next day, Wang Zhaozhao took Wang Xingwen aside again and gave him some homework.
At around three o'clock, I went to the town to take a bus back to the city.
"Girl Zhao, how is your elder brother? Can he skip a grade?" After walking all the way and almost reaching the town, Xie Ailian suddenly asked Wang Zhaozhao.
"ah?"
It was too sudden. Wang Zhaozhao reacted for a moment and said, "It's not a big deal!"
Xie Ailian's face lit up with joy.
Wang Zhaozhao added, "After the final exams, big brother will come to the county town during the summer vacation. We'll have two months to study hard. When school starts, he'll take the grade-skipping exam at our school. As long as he passes it and gets into the first grade, even if he lags behind, it's okay. I can help him catch up."
"That's fine." Xie Ailian nodded repeatedly.
Wang Zhaozhao glanced at the old comrade quietly, "Grandma, why... why are you asking this all of a sudden? Did you hear something?"
Xie Ailian's face changed. "Your good grandmother has been hanging around your aunt since your uncle went to work in the city. She wants to repair the relationship between mother and daughter. Yesterday, I heard your eighth grandmother say that she wants to introduce a marriage to your eldest brother."
“……!”
Wang Zhaozhao felt disgusted.
There is no doubt that her cheap aunt would be very moved.
Even though she once hated Shi Guixiang for some unknown reason, in this matter, her mother simply saw her dozing off and brought her a pillow.
Not to mention that Wang Fangbing has gone to the city to work as a worker now, even in the past, Chen Meiru didn't want Wang Xingwen to go to school. He was advised to stay at home and do farm work honestly. It would be better for him to find a marriage partner as soon as possible. Even if he couldn't move out, he would have someone to do the laundry and cooking.
"Grandma, you have to blame uncle for this." Wang Zhaozhao looked at Xie Ailian seriously.
It must be because of that condition.
"Why are you hitting me? Just beat him up." Xie Ailian said angrily.
That’s okay!
Wang Zhaozhao felt that it would be more effective to reason with the opponent after the fight.
Her uncle is usually quite aware of being the eldest son. He doesn't take care of his two sons... but he is still capable when it comes to serious matters.
The fact that she decisively sent the two brothers to school back then made Wang Zhaozhao feel less resentful towards her.
Otherwise, an uncle or stepfather? Haha.
So in Wang Zhaozhao's mind, among her grandfather's four sons, the first is her fourth uncle, the second is her third uncle, the third is her eldest uncle, and the fourth is her father.
Comrade Xie Ailian has always been very proactive.
As soon as he returned to the county town, he immediately asked Wang Sibing to ride his bike to the cannery to see if Wang Fangbing had a car available. If not, he would bring him over.
If the car is out, leave a message and ask Wang Fangbing to come over when he comes back.
Coincidentally, Wang Fangbing did not drive out, and when Wang Sibing arrived there, it was just time to get off work.
So, when Wang Sanbing came back from get off work at the bicycle shop, he saw Xie Ailian beating Wang Fangbing with a stick as soon as he arrived at the gate of the yard.
Whipping and cursing...
