Chapter 127 The Train Home
The room next to Zhang Dazui's house and Wu's house was previously occupied by the eldest brother, but now no one lives there.
The room was empty and she came to clean it from time to time.
As soon as I entered the house, I heard strange noises coming from next door, and my face turned red.
I thought to myself: "Why are these two so restless, doing this kind of thing in broad daylight?"
He quickly packed up his things, locked the door, and went out into the next room.
Zhou Jianguo was sitting cross-legged on the kang, with snacks and tea on the small kang table, when he saw Zhang Dazui coming in.
Zhou Jianguo: "Cui Lian, why is your face so red?"
Zhang Dazui sat down on the kang, waved his hands and said, "It's boring, it's okay. Lao Zhou, you said the things you sent to Lao Da and his wife should have arrived by now, right?"
"I should have received it. That little bit of stuff should be enough to help me have a good New Year."
Zhou Jianguo and Zhang Dazui were talking about Zhou Zhixi and Tong Wan, a couple who lived far away in the northwest.
In order to seek refuge, I took the initiative to apply to go to the Northwest to plant trees, and I haven't been back for several years.
Zhang Dazui took out a wooden box from the wall next to the kang, which contained letters sent back by the eldest brother over the years.
"I didn't receive any letters last year. Old Zhou, do you think something happened to the boss and the others?"
Zhou Jianguo patted her hands and said to her kindly: "No, don't let your imagination run wild and scare yourself. The journey is too far and you may not have arrived yet."
Zhang Dazui sighed and put the box away. "Hutou hasn't seen his parents in years. I don't know when this will end."
Zhou Jianguo: "I heard someone was vindicated after having their names removed."
"Really? That's really good news. Then the boss and his family of three will be reunited."
Zhang Dazui thought of his youngest son Zhou Zhiwen, who had no girlfriend yet, and discussed it with Zhou Jianguo.
"Old Zhou, Zhiwen isn't young anymore, is it time for him to find a partner?"
"I asked him about it when I was getting a bath that day. He knew what I was doing. Don't blame me for laughing at him if he can't even find a wife!"
He is not even as good as his father. Zhou Jianguo looked so fierce and ferocious when he was young. Girls would start shaking their legs before he even said a word.
In the end, Cui Lian had good taste and fell in love with him at first sight, and was willing to go home and live with him.
Fortunately, both boys are good-looking. The eldest brother Zhou Zhixi looks like Zhang Dazui and looks like a cultured person. After he started working, he quickly found a partner.
The second son, Zhou Zhiwen, looks like him, but fortunately he has a simple personality and doesn’t laugh very fiercely.
Zhang Dazui ate snacks and drank tea: "Zhiwen works in the factory and I think he will meet someone suitable. Now that they have started a family, I don't care. Let them be."
…
In the west room, Diao Yulian and Wu Shengli finally got tired and stopped fighting. They leaned on the bed and gasped for breath.
Diao Yulian felt a strange smell on her body and almost vomited after sniffing it.
She looked at the pile of changed clothes on the ground and was furious.
Diao Yulian yelled at the top of her lungs, "Wu Shengli, did you fall into the toilet? It stinks!"
Wu Shengli was also furious when he mentioned this: "It's all your fault. You didn't want to throw away the leftovers from several days ago. I even had diarrhea from eating them."
Wu Shengli: "Not only did I have diarrhea, but my bicycle seat was stolen!"
Diao Yulian was horrified. "What?! It's your fault for going out and showing off for no reason. Can we get it back if we report it to the police?"
Wu Shengli: "There's no stamp on the seat, so where can I find it? I can only blame myself for my bad luck!"
He was too embarrassed to tell others about such embarrassing things.
"I'll think of a way to make one myself. I want those two car thieves to be in my sight. I'll make them pay!"
…
Wu Chunyan from Shanghai finally gritted her teeth and borrowed some money from a teacher to take the train back to Beijing. She came back this time to make a decision with her family.
As a child, she does have the obligation to provide for her parents in their old age, but she cannot ask her daughter, who is still in school, for alimony.
She can barely accept five dollars a month now, but she knows in her heart that her parents will not satisfy her easily, and people's desires will be nurtured step by step.
She thought about going back to make a decision on the matter, and it would be best to turn the verbal agreement into written proof.
Let's see if we can finalize the agreement in writing in front of all the uncles and aunts in the compound, so that it cannot be changed at will and we don't have to worry about others making changes without authorization.
When Wu Chunyan came back, she was still carrying a military green canvas bag, squeezing on the hard seat of the train, leaning her head against the window and looking outside.
I dared not relax at all and had to pay attention to the people around me to avoid having my things stolen or being kidnapped.
The train was running from south to north. Amid the rumbling sound of the train, Wu Chunyan hugged her canvas bag and closed her eyes to rest for a while. She would not be able to get off the station until eight o'clock tomorrow.
She had a premonition that she would have to fight a tough battle this time when she returned home.
…
The young couple of the old Xie family huddled in a warm room. Xie Yi leaned against the desk, watching Lin Xiaotong flipping through the set of books she had bought.
This set of books is really good. You can understand the knowledge points by looking at the examples in the book and then do them again.
Then you can test your learning results by doing the examples at the end of each unit without looking at the textbook.
The difficult questions also have answers and analysis, which is very suitable for people with a certain junior high school knowledge foundation to learn high school knowledge.
"Xie Yi, this book is really good. I'll take these books back with me when I return to the island. I'll study a little bit every day when I have free time. That'll be enough time."
"Wife, how can I learn this?"
Xie Yi felt overwhelmed when he saw the book, and he followed Old Xie.
I really don’t like reading. As soon as I start reading, my scalp becomes itchy and my eyelids can’t hold up and I feel sleepy.
"So do you want to apply to a military academy in the future?"
"Of course."
Xie Yi is actually a bit homesick in his heart, and he missed home very much when he first arrived on the island.
I secretly got up to cry at night and was seen by the squad leader. In the end, I pulled the squad leader and we cried together.
Now that time has passed, he can still hold on.
When I really miss home, I open the lid of a can of pickles with chili peppers, put the pickles and chili peppers in a steamed bun, and eat it with tears in my eyes.
When someone saw this, Xie Yi said that he cried because of the spicy food.
If I could get into the military academy in Beijing, I could live with my family.
Although he wanted to go home, he did not relax at all when training and taking on tasks.
He was injured during his last mission, and the team leader mentioned it when he came to see him.
In the past few years, their troops stationed on the island had to guard it, so the young men had few opportunities to go home.
Therefore, the leaders approved all the annual leave they could, so that soldiers who were far away from home could also go home to celebrate the New Year.
Lin Xiaotong said frankly: "If you don't study hard, it will take a long time to be transferred back."
When Xie Yi heard this, the corners of his mouth turned down, his head drooped, and he bent down slightly and gently hugged Lin Xiaotong.
Lin Xiaotong leaned over and took Xie Yi's hand and said, "Besides, when the college entrance examination resumes next year, there will be a lot of people taking it, and in the end only a small number of people will be able to pass."
More than 10 million people will sign up for the college entrance examination next year, and 5.7 million will pass the review.
However, only more than 270,000 people were admitted, which was truly a situation where thousands of people were trying to cross a single-plank bridge.
When Xie Yi heard this, he frowned, took a pen and sat next to her, then resigned himself to his fate and started learning.
The two of them sat by the window in the bright light, reading and studying quietly.
Gao Xiulan walked past the door and heard the silence in the room. She felt something was wrong for some reason.
The house was quiet, Xie Yi was making trouble.
