Uncle He San exclaimed, looking at Grandma He in surprise: "Do I have to send New Year's goods back too?"
Grandma He almost rolled her eyes: "What do you think? You live and eat well in Kyoto, but you don't care about the people back home!
How much money do you have left?"
"After becoming a regular employee, my salary is a bit higher. Excluding the 100 yuan I sent back, I still have 200 yuan here." Uncle He said truthfully.
Grandma He: "There's nothing much to buy at the department store right now. How about this: after the New Year, you can send some cloth back home, and also buy some candy and roast duck so that the people at home can have a taste of it."
Uncle He San was instantly anxious: "A roast duck costs eight dollars, I won't buy it! If you want to buy it, you buy it!"
Grandma He slapped Uncle He San on the back of the head and said, "You're in Kyoto, and you can still eat roast duck occasionally. They stayed in their hometown, and they haven't seen a single duck feather all year round. What's wrong with sending them two roast ducks?"
Grandma He raised her hand, ready to hit him a second time. Uncle He was so scared that he immediately dodged: "Buy it, buy it, I can't buy it!"
After Grandma He finished scolding the third child, she looked at the eldest child and asked, "Did you send any New Year's goods back?"
Uncle He nodded. "I sent it back. I asked the third child to buy some defective cotton cloth from the factory, as well as some special products from Kyoto, some cakes, candies, and so on. All in all, it was a big package."
The eldest brother was very thorough in his work, while the third brother was casual and careless. The comparison between the two made Grandma He more and more angry. She pointed at Uncle He and said, "You are almost forty years old, but how come you don't understand the ways of the world at all!"
Uncle He San still didn't know where he went wrong: "We are all family, why do you care so much?
Just do whatever makes you feel comfortable, isn't that good?
If it’s too deliberate, it will feel fake! ”
Grandma He was so angry that she almost vomited blood. She looked at Uncle He with disdain: "Sending things back home for the New Year, was that intentional?"
Just as Uncle He San was about to nod, Grandma He rushed over and hit him on the back of the head again: "If you dare to nod, I'll beat you to death!"
Uncle He San looked at Grandma He with grievance: "Mom, I usually send things back.
Why must it be sent during the Chinese New Year?
Grandma He didn't want to talk to such a clueless person. She took a deep breath, and when her emotions stabilized, she spoke weakly, "It's up to you. Do whatever you want. I don't want to care about you anymore."
Uncle He felt even more wronged: "I told you I sent it after the New Year, why are you still not satisfied?
You are so difficult to please!"
The anger that Grandma He had suppressed with great difficulty was provoked again by Uncle He San. She kicked Uncle He San's knee and cursed: "I am doing this for your own good, and you actually said that I am difficult to serve?
I asked you to send New Year's gifts back home just to make your wife happy."
Uncle He San saw that Grandma He was very angry, and immediately raised his hands in surrender: "Send it, send it, send it after the New Year."
The courtyard was bustling with activity.
But the situation on Wang Changsheng's side was terrible.
As soon as he got off the train, he sadly discovered that his letter of introduction was missing.
The inspection is strict during the Chinese New Year.
As soon as he left the station, he was arrested by the Revolutionary Committee.
Wang Changsheng was about to cry: "I'm not a bad person, nor am I a traitor. I'm here to find my wife. Let me go, let me go..."
The Revolutionary Committee member said sternly, "Whether you are a traitor or not is not up to you to decide. We need to investigate.
If you are innocent, we won't make things difficult for you!"
It took two days to check.
The Revolutionary Committee released Wang Changsheng only after confirming that his identity was correct.
Wang Changsheng also wanted to leave immediately, but thinking that he was not familiar with Kyoto, he fell to his knees and begged the people of the Revolutionary Committee: "Kyoto is too big, I can't find my wife, can you help me look for her?"
The member of the Revolutionary Committee felt a pang of regret when he realized that he had wronged Wang Changsheng. He then asked, "Do you know your wife's address?"
Wang Changsheng had memorized the address by heart: "I know, I know."
He gave an address.
The people from the Revolutionary Committee changed their expressions and immediately went to find the director.
"What? In a courtyard house in Dongcheng District?" The director's heart trembled. To be able to live in a courtyard house in Dongcheng District, one must be no small figure!
"Yes, that's what Wang Changsheng said."
The director stood up and said, "I'm familiar with that place. I'll take them there."
If he could be connected to someone inside, maybe his position could be promoted!
…
Look at the quaint courtyard shining in the sun.
Wang Changsheng was so shocked that he couldn't speak clearly. "Master, Comrade Director, my wife is staying here? Is there a mistake?"
The director patiently asked, "Is that address correct?"
Wang Changsheng nodded heavily: "The address is correct."
"That's it." The director stepped forward and knocked on the door.
Xiao Hei in the yard smelled the scent of a stranger and he barked loudly.
Old Mrs. Xu heard the sound and came out of the house: "Xiao Hei, don't shout, I'll open the door and see who it is."
Wang Changsheng recognized the voice and instantly became excited: "I'm not mistaken, this is the place. The person speaking is my sister-in-law."
When Old Lady Xu opened the door and saw Wang Changsheng, she was stunned for several seconds before she reacted: "Changsheng, why are you here? Come in quickly..."
Step through the door.
Looking at the courtyards with staggered layouts, carved beams and painted buildings.
The more Wang Changsheng looked, the more shocked he became.
Isn’t this house too nice?
Matchmaker Li came out of the bedroom carrying the third child. Seeing Wang Changsheng appear in the hall, she was as surprised as Wang Changsheng: "You, why are you here?"
