Hua Youzhi noticed that the clothes that his sister-in-law was sewing were a little thin, "Sister-in-law, these are made for winter melon and watermelon, aren't they too thin?"
The capital is warmer than the Northeast, and it's very cold wearing such thin clothes outside.
"Yuanyuan, that girl, was specifically told in the letter that she should wear something thinner after the New Year or in the beginning of spring, so she should put a thin layer of cotton wool in it."
In the fall, the family made several sets of cotton coats and trousers for the children to wear in winter.
Qingguo’s wife said that Donggua and Xigua ran outside every day, and when they sweated, Yuanyuan would change their clothes.
The same goes for cotton shoes. You can have several pairs of thick and thin shoes to alternate between. They can only be worn for a year because children's feet grow so fast.
Yuanyuan really likes the clothes and shoes made for the children in her hometown.
Last year during the Chinese New Year, Yuanyuan got a red top for them, saying it was festive, but they were embarrassed to wear it because they thought it was too bright. Well, who would have thought that everyone in the village wore one, and the colors were almost the same, the little girl wore pink, and the old man wore dark red.
The whole village is red, so festive.
"Brother, have you heard that the Wang family said that Wang Changjiang will bring his wife back to celebrate the New Year this year?"
Hua Youzhi whispered to his eldest brother, Hua Youde elbowed this fourth brother who was not careful with his mouth, saying that the children were still here! The eldest brother didn't like them talking about the Wang family.
"Brother, why are you arguing with me? The children are watching TV and they are not listening to us."
"Brother, I don't like to hear it."
"Brother, this is where you are wrong. Others also talk about our family. What's wrong with us gossiping about other people's families on our own kang?"
This is just because you have nothing to do!
"Okay, tell me, what did you hear?"
"It's just that Wang Changjiang came back to celebrate the New Year this year and started showing off his son and daughter-in-law again. The people in the city stayed in Beijing..."
The things that the Wang family showed off were nothing in the eyes of the Hua family. Compared with the third family, they were nothing to look at.
Wang Changjiang retired a few years ago, and this story was spread by the Wang family themselves. The bragging point is that he stayed in the capital.
They were working in Beijing and didn't know about this until they heard about it when they called home.
What about Wang Changjiang? He was the deputy head of the group who was vacant after Hao Li was transferred away.
He actively strived for it and felt that there was a great chance that he would be promoted.
Compared with his comrades who held the same position and worked at the same time, he was the best, excluding Hao Li, who had been transferred.
He tried to find out where Hao Li had been transferred to, but unfortunately he found out nothing.
When he was trying every possible way to get promoted, a buddy in the regiment who had a good relationship with him came to him and said that the deputy regiment commander needed such a position due to special circumstances, and the higher-ups had already held a meeting and reached a conclusion that the position would be abolished.
This news made Wang Changjiang very disappointed. It was not easy for the battalion commander to take the next step up, and many people were stuck here.
After being depressed for a few days, I calmed down and analyzed the current situation to see if there was any room for promotion.
We have assumed possible changes in the existing positions in the group in recent years, so there are still opportunities and we can get back on track.
But a few days later, Li Lei pulled him aside to gossip and told him a piece of gossip.
After Hao Li left with the Second Battalion, the regiment was reorganized and replenished with troops. A new Second Battalion arrived. The battalion commander, Yang Xinghe, did not look outstanding and was well-behaved in all aspects.
Li Lei said that this person had a background, and he was very sure of it.
Evidence 1: Receiving packages regularly and frequently indicates that the family is well off.
The sender's address is very intriguing. It's one of ours, and you can tell at a glance that it's from one of our family members.
Someone asked curiously who sent it. It was said that Yang Xinghe said personally that it was sent by his family.
So Li Lei guessed that the other person’s parents were also in the army.
There was another thing. Someone saw Yang Xinghe in the city with a man who looked similar to him, and they were gesturing on his shoulder, which meant that this man held a high position.
Someone verified that Yang Xinghe did take leave and go to the city that day, saying that someone from his family came to a meeting and he wanted to meet him.
Wang Changjiang did not believe everything he heard from others unless he saw it with his own eyes.
He also became more careful and observed this person through some small things to see if he could discover anything.
It didn't take too long for him to confirm that Yang Xinghe's family was well off as he approached him intentionally.
Later, Yang Xinghe's wife came to visit with her children, and gossip spread that they heard the two quarreling, and his wife asked him to transfer back...
Wang Changjiang is basically certain that Yang Xinghe has a family background, but he is still unsure whether it will have an impact on his promotion.
If the path to promotion is blocked, he will definitely make plans early.
The following year there was a training opportunity and he applied for it, but in the end it was Yang Xinghe who went, so he knew what to do.
After discussing it with his wife, he mobilized all his connections, and there happened to be a position for criminal police captain available, and he was about to get it.
A Cheng Yaojin suddenly appeared.
It’s Hao Li.
The feeling of falling from the top of the mountain to the bottom all of a sudden made him superstitious, thinking that Hao Li and Hua Yuanyuan must have had a grudge against him in their previous life.
If he wasn't supported by the belief of promotion, he would have wanted to leave here every minute.
Stay away from Hao Li and Hua Yuanyuan, so you don’t have to listen to their gossip anymore.
He is jealous of Hao Li's development, and even more jealous of Hua Yuanyuan's money.
Hua Yuanyuan was probably just a pretty vase with no beauty, she couldn't even do the work in the fields, and the two of them lived a hard life relying on Hao Li's meager salary.
He imagined that this would be the day Hua Yuanyuan and Hao Li's wedding would take place.
He just didn't understand. If Hua Yuanyuan had this ability, why didn't she come to him earlier?
He had always disliked Hua Yuanyuan for not being presentable enough. Whenever he thought about her life in the military compound after joining the army, where she would not earn any money and would just cook and take care of children, he would be at the bottom of the contempt chain in the compound, and he could not tolerate it.
He also looked down on Hua Yuanyuan, who was making money, because it was just a few bucks.
However, it cannot be denied that dirty money also has its advantages. It is said that everyone in the family compound is very flattering to Hua Yuanyuan, just to get a job in the Hua family.
Anyway, it was Hua Yuanyuan and Hao Li, a couple, who had a great impact on his mood.
Since there is little hope for promotion, it is better to make plans early. Who would have thought that Hao Li would intervene at this critical juncture.
They are still very confident.
Since Hao Li took over the special operations force, sacrifices have been inevitable. All he can do for the sacrificed brothers is to clean up the mess and take care of the elderly and children.
For those brothers who are unable to continue serving in the special operations forces due to injuries, he will never refuse to help them find a way out.
The aftermath issues are handled by a special department. He only asks about them but does not overstep his authority. Even if the results are not ideal and he is not satisfied with them, he will accept it.
The brothers didn't want to make things difficult for him, so they obeyed whatever the organization arranged.
It's not that he would just ignore his brothers and not care about them.
Later, he contacted everyone and found that life was not easy for everyone. They were full of complaints at work and their families were in chaos.
