Chapter 424: Lively New Year
Mr. Zheng spent several days at home thinking about how to bring it up, but he never found the opportunity, because he hadn't seen anyone next door since he saw the father and son boxing that morning.
After asking Zheng Mingxia, he learned that the children next door usually lived outside when they were not in school, and only occasionally returned to the family compound.
Mr. Zheng and his son were a little anxious. The New Year was coming soon. If they didn't come back, they would have to wait until after the New Year. He heard from his grandson that the neighbors seemed to be going back to their hometown to celebrate the New Year.
When Zheng Guosheng came back, Mr. Zheng told him about it again. Zheng Guosheng was very angry. He didn't expect that after a few days, not only did they not give up the idea, but they became even more worried. Even his father began to worry about it.
Zheng Guosheng suddenly regretted calling his parents over, which was really a case of shooting himself in the foot.
Zheng Guosheng tried to reason with them again, but in the eyes of the greedy old couple, it was useless. After all, if the other three sons had jobs, they could have an extra 30 yuan a month, which was a lot of money for them. As
the father and son talked, they started to argue.
Zheng Guosheng said that old man Zheng only cared about money and wanted to ruin his future.
Old man Zheng scolded Zheng Guosheng for being selfish and only caring about himself, and not thinking about helping his brother.
They actually quarreled for a while.
While the Zheng family was making a fuss, Lu Changzheng's family of four had already boarded a plane to Beijing.
In order to adapt to the requirement of focusing on economic construction, the leaders pointed out that civil aviation should also take the road of corporatization. Since the end of January, the aviation industry, which was originally under the control of the military, has been reforming towards corporatization.
The flight attendants who originally wore military uniforms changed into new uniforms, and the service also went up a level. Learning from foreign airlines, they began to provide drinks and snacks.
The family of four rushed for two days and finally returned to Lujia Village on New Year's Eve.
Even Lu Fengqin, who was serving in the army, took a leave to visit his family at the instruction of Lu Changzheng.
The whole family is together!
Looking at the full house of children and grandchildren, Lu Qing'an smiled from ear to ear. Looking
at the entire commune, he, Lu Qing'an, is the first one, and his children, grandchildren and grandchildren are all promising.
The eldest son and his wife both have jobs. They are a dual-employee family in the countryside, which is quite remarkable. The eldest granddaughter is in the army. The second granddaughter is a good student and has a great chance of getting into college. Although the grandson's grades are not that good, he is also honest and obedient, and does not have the habits of those second-rate people.
Although the second son's family is a little worse, the second son has become a small leader in the factory, and the two grandsons are also very good. Especially the eldest grandson Guodong, he has good grades, and he has the spirit of the third son before him, so he should not be bad in the future.
The third son's family is even better. Both the husband and wife are the pride of the Lu family, as are their two precious grandchildren. Not only did they skip grades at a young age, but they are also said to have won the first place in every subject in the fifth grade. With such a godparent, their future is beyond doubt.
The daughter has found a good home again, and both husband and wife are college students, so they will have a bright future. Now that they have a little grandson, all their worries are gone.
Life is getting better and better, and Lu Qing'an is completely happy.
Before, my mother was always worried that he would be bullied as the only child in the Lu family.
Mom! Now I have many children and grandchildren, and they are all promising. They will not be bullied, so you can rest assured.
Lu Qing'an was surrounded by his sons and sons-in-law, drinking. As he drank, tears welled up in his eyes.
Li Yue'e saw this from the side and knew that Lu Qing'an missed his mother. She felt a little sad. Her mother-in-law was such a good person, but she passed away so early. If she were still alive, she would be so happy to see the scene of her children and grandchildren today.
The Lu family celebrated this year in a very lively manner. After dinner, Lu Qing'an took out a basket of fireworks that he had bought at a huge cost and asked the younger generations to set them off.
Although the fireworks of this period were not as gorgeous as those in later generations, they were a unique sight for people at that time.
Many people came out of their houses and stood in their own yards to watch.
In the past, people could only eat a full stomach during the Chinese New Year. Later, people could not only eat a full stomach during the Chinese New Year, but also eat meat. Now, the Chinese New Year is no longer just for eating, but also for reunion and celebration.
Just like these fireworks, no one will have the spare money to burn such things in the future. Now, times have really changed, and life is getting better and better.
After burning fireworks, the young people paid New Year's greetings and sat together in the living room to accompany the elderly to stay up all night.
After twelve o'clock, Su Mo's family of four got up and went back to their home to rest.
Just after walking a distance, I heard the footsteps of someone chasing after me. I turned around and saw that it was Lu Fengqin.
Lu Fengqin ran a little hurriedly, her face flushed, and she ran to Su Mo and Lu Changzheng and bowed, "Uncle San, Aunt San, I'm sorry! And thank you."
After Lu Fengqin was assigned to the confidential unit, she was resentful at first.
At that time, she was thinking about going to the big city to live a good life, but she was assigned to a mountain nest even higher than Lujia Village. She couldn't contact the outside world, and even food had to be sent to her regularly.
There were several times when the mountain was closed due to blizzards, and supplies could not be replenished. The remaining things were given priority to scientists. They, the logistics soldiers, could only eat one meal a day, and they just had to make sure they didn't starve to death.
It was indeed hard, but she gained something extraordinary. After hearing so many stories about the elders, Lu Fengqin realized that in addition to having good food, good clothes and a good life, there are higher pursuits in life.
Many of these elders were born in famous families and lived a life of luxury in the first half of their lives. However, for the sake of the country, they were willing to stay in this isolated mountain nest and dedicate everything they had. In order for the country to have enough strength and the people to stand up straight, they sacrificed their small families for the sake of everyone.
Compared with them, she was really nothing.
She used to think that her third uncle was too lazy to take care of her, so he pushed her into the mountains. When she understood, she realized his painstaking efforts. She was also ashamed of her previous thoughts.
"It's good to know your mistakes and correct them." Lu Changzheng said.
"I will definitely work hard." Lu Fengqin said seriously.
"Okay, the weather is cold, go back." Lu Changzheng waved his hand to let Lu Fengqin go back.
Lu Changzheng had originally stuffed Lu Fengqin there, not only to temper her temper, but also to leave a way out for her.
Although he had little contact with Lu Fengqin, he had come back from several visits and found that the child seemed to be very diligent and dutiful, and also very caring for her younger siblings. She should not have a bad character, but she was indoctrinated with bad ideas during her growth and went astray.
If you throw someone there, as long as their character is not bad, they can basically turn right after a few years of exposure.
Although working in a confidential unit is tough, the seniors there all have very high social status. If you are lucky enough to get the favor of one of them, it will benefit you for the rest of your life.
