The woman took this to heart and stared at He Zhiqiang with an unpleasant expression: "Are you really going to break off the engagement with me?"
He Zhiqiang was very venomous: "If you don't cancel the engagement, will you keep it for the New Year?"
The woman was so angry that she put her hands on her hips and glared at He Zhiqiang: "You will regret this!"
He Zhiqiang: "Don't worry, even if I remain single for the rest of my life, I won't regret it."
He Zhiqiang on the first day of his trip to Kyoto.
Successfully broke off the engagement.
However, I lost fifty dollars.
…
Uncle He and He Zhiqiang have been to Kyoto.
The two were familiar with the route.
Arrived at the courtyard.
Uncle He knocked on the door.
Xiao Hei heard the knock on the door and barked a few times.
The little fire fox also made a squeaking sound, and it even jumped onto the wall, looking down at the two strangers standing outside.
After making sure that the two people were not dangerous, he jumped down again and landed on the ground.
When Old Mrs. Xu heard a knock on the door, she came out to open it. When she opened it, she saw that it was Uncle He and He Zhiqiang, and immediately let them in.
Grandma He didn't see her third aunt, and she immediately understood: "Your mother is not coming?"
He Zhiqiang nodded: "Yes, my mother said that there are two children at home who need to study and cannot come, so she asked me to come to work."
Grandma He thought of his girlfriend: "Where is your childhood sweetheart?"
He Zhiqiang: "The engagement was called off. She was nice when we first started dating, but after a while, she started to show her true colors. She wanted a 500 yuan betrothal gift. Back home, getting married only cost a 100 yuan at most. I don't know how she came up with that."
Grandma He guessed: "Maybe they think your father is a worker in Kyoto and has money.
I told you before that that woman is not good. She listens too much to her parents.
If her parents cared about her and thought about her, I would definitely not say anything.
But her parents only care about her brother, and she listens to them. If she really marries a man like that, she will be sick to death."
After the Chinese New Year.
It was 1977.
The fifth day of the New Year.
Uncle He Er and He Zhiqiang went to the factory to report.
Complete all formalities.
The two returned to the courtyard.
Uncle He still feels it's unreal: "Am I really a worker?"
Little Star ran over and said in a baby voice, "Second Uncle is a worker. Second Uncle wants to treat us. Treat us. Little Star wants to eat some fruit candy."
The third child, Shen Jiayi, ran over and said, "Xiao Yiyi wants to eat osmanthus cake."
The fourth child, Shen Jiabo, was not far behind: "I want to eat ice cream."
The fifth brother Shen Jiahuai and the sixth brother Shen Jiasi stood aside without saying a word, but their round eyes revealed everything.
Second Uncle He looked at the younger generations in the family, his face bubbling with happiness. He took out ten one-yuan bills and waved them: "Okay, Second Uncle, it's your treat. This money is all for you."
The third child, Shen Jiayi, tilted his head and looked at the one-yuan note. After thinking for a moment, he ran to his room, took out his storage box, and pulled out two one-yuan notes and gave them to his second uncle He: "Little Yiyi has one too."
When Second Uncle He saw the money in Shen Jiayi's box, he gasped. Oh my god, a little kid actually had more money than him. It was simply poverty that limited his imagination: "Jia Jia, little Yi Yi is so young, giving her so much money, aren't you afraid that she will lose it?"
