It was quite surprising that Mr. Song was a classmate of my father's when he was a child.
However, life is wonderful. The capital city is not big, but it is not very big either. After going around in circles, I found that I was still an old friend.
Qiao Jiuru and Su Huaiyuan looked at each other, then went away together tacitly for a while, and came back not long after.
"Uncle Song, has Luo decided where to go to the countryside?!"
The first thing Qiao Jiuru asked Mr. Song after entering the room was something confusing.
"Not yet, because it's not the final registration period yet."
Mr. Song answered without hesitation, thinking that Qiao Jiuru would not ask this question for no reason.
There must be a reason.
"Uncle Song, Xiaoluo will definitely go to the countryside. I suggest you not to go to the south. Although there is a lot of food there, it is precisely because you can farm all year round that you cannot rest all year round. If you do this every day, your body will not be able to bear it if you don't eat well."
Qiao Jiuru has never lived in the South, but she has heard a lot about things in the South. Working in the fields every day, isn't she like a workhorse? ! The key is that the old ox only needs to do the heavy and hard work, and can rest during the rest of the time.
Mr. Song and his wife were dumbfounded after hearing this. They really had never thought about this problem. They only thought that in the south, where it didn't snow, they could find food everywhere, but they didn't expect that people could still farm in winter.
"Niece Qiao, Uncle Song is so arrogant to call you that, so where do you think Xiaoluo should go to work in the countryside?!"
Maybe because he had been short of food for a few years, Mr. Song had only thought about staying alive and had never thought about other things. Now after hearing what Qiao Jiuru said, he also felt that life in the South was too hard.
"My daughter is going to the countryside in Jilin Province. Uncle Song, if Luo wants to go, she can go with her."
"That's where our Qiao family used to go often. Maybe there are a few people there who know them."
Qiao Jiuru just went with Su Huaiyuan to discuss whether it would be better to let Song Luoyun go to the countryside in Jilin Province as well, perhaps so that they and their daughters can take care of each other.
Of course, Song Luoyun didn't want to help his daughter with work, but he wanted to ask him to pay attention to his daughter's movements from time to time, in case of any accidents, Song Luoyun could inform them in time.
Moreover, Qiao Jiuru was not wrong. It was true that Jilin Province was very cold, but one could rest during the winter. As long as one could be diligent when the mountains were blocked by snow, one would definitely be able to support oneself.
"Niece Qiao, that's great. Our Luo is also going to Jilin Province. It's just right. We can still take care of each other."
Mr. Song decided without hesitation to let his eldest grandson go to the countryside in Jilin Province, and he believed in the Qiao family.
"It's very cold in Jilin Province, but the mountain products are also very good. If I work hard, maybe I can send some back."
Qiao Jiuru felt that this kind of life in the Northeast was pretty good, except that it was a little cold.
Mr. Song nodded continuously and was about to say something excitedly when a childish voice suddenly interrupted him.
"Grandpa, I want to go to the countryside with my brother, so that our family can save food, and then we can send food back to grandpa, grandma, brothers and sisters."
Song Luonian's childish face was full of seriousness, and he opened his eyes wide and spoke like an adult.
Although I am old, I have grown up early. In the past few years, I have not had enough food and clothing, and I have been trying hard to share the burden of the family.
"께年..."
The second grandson was sensible and mature, and his words finally made Mr. Song hold back his tears. He touched his sensible grandson's head and choked up, unable to speak.
"Grandpa, I also want to go to the countryside. Let my older brother go with me. I am older than you, so I can do more work and earn more work points. We can earn food and send it back home."
After listening to her cousin's words, Song Luoshu was also inspired, and her eyes suddenly lit up. She also wanted to go to the countryside to save food for her family, and if she worked hard, she could send money back home.
In this way, grandparents don't have to work so hard, and she can also help support her younger brothers and sisters.
"Secretary, last year, grandpa didn't agree. Going to the countryside is very hard, not what you want."
I don't agree. I don't agree.
Old Master Song waved his hands again and again, feeling that he was useless, but at the same time he was pleased that his children were sensible and filial.
Qiao Jiuru and Su Huaiyuan were shocked by the words of the Song children. This family was already in such a difficult situation that the children had to go to the countryside to save food and earn food for their family. The couple felt very sad.
It’s difficult, too difficult. It’s difficult for everyone.
"Uncle Song, I suddenly have an idea, why don't you listen to it?!"
Qiao Jiuru really couldn't bear it anymore, and an idea came to his mind. Since he had met the man, he might as well lend a hand.
"Niece, you say."
"Why not let Luo and Shu go to the countryside together? Although Shu won't earn many work points, as long as she can earn five work points a day, plus eat some wild vegetables, she can still be 70% full. In this way, the food rations that Shu has in the city can be left for her family. When Shu goes there, we will find someone to find a connection to arrange an easy job for her, and she can live in the same room with my daughter."
"Grandpa, Aunt Qiao is right. I am not afraid either. I am almost 18 years old. In two or three years, I will have to go to the countryside. Now that I have my elder brother and sister Qiao, I will not be afraid and I will definitely live a good life."
"Uncle Song, listen to me why I suggest that teachers go to the countryside. If the two older children leave, the ones left behind will be old, weak, sick, and disabled. If something happens, it is better and safer for boys to go to the countryside at night, no matter how well or how strong they are."
"Yes, Grandpa, Auntie is right."
"Aru, Uncle Song, I think it's better to let Xiaoshu sign up to go to the countryside directly. Xiaoshu is almost 18 years old now. In another two or three years, he will be old enough to go to the countryside. Then he will be old enough to go to the countryside, and someone from the Song family will have to go to the countryside."
"That's right, but, Secretary Xiao is now in the countryside, and the Youth Office only gives her 200 yuan as resettlement fee. If she still has a city hukou, her food rations can be left for her family."
"That's right. Two hundred dollars is certainly not enough for two or three years of food."
"That's right. It would be better for the secretary to handle the procedures for going to the countryside in two or three years."
"My niece is right. The two hundred yuan resettlement fee can only buy about five hundred yuan of food at most, which is not enough to last for two years."
"Uncle Song, the teacher is going to the countryside. She will sleep with my daughter. You don't have to prepare quilts for her. I have already asked someone to prepare two sets in advance."
