1986 was truly a year of prosperity and a new era of development.
Since the Jilin Automobile Manufacturing Plant started operation, domestically produced cars have finally ushered in a new era, and the Dongfeng brand has quickly entered every household through newspapers and televisions.
A big businessman in Shanghai acted very quickly and grabbed the first private car quota in the country.
Grandpa Cao also made a reservation early on. The cars in his family are all registered under the factory name. Cao Jingheng's car is an old jeep provided by the police station. How can it be as good-looking and performant as a newly produced car?
Grandpa Cao bought ten small jeeps that cost hundreds of thousands of yuan each. After having Peanut, the two old men became very superstitious and wanted to use nice numbers when doing things or buying things.
Ten cars are definitely not enough for the family. One for Shen An Ning. Although her family doesn't let her drive very often because she is pregnant, she still has to show off her pregnant belly. One for Shen's eldest brother and sister-in-law. After moving, they are closer to their workplace. Now, as long as it is not a confidential project, the couple will go home to stay at night.
Qin's cousin-in-law had one car, her cousin-in-law had one, Xiao Chuchu had one, Shen Anxuan and Shen Anyu had one each, and Peng Wei had one. Peng Zhe, who was from the south, had already driven imported luxury cars a long time ago, and he had several of them in rotation. Aunt Shen complained that her son had the style of a typical local tycoon.
There were ten cars, three were kept at home and seven were given away. Grandpa Cao had very good reasons for giving gifts, and they were all different. The one given to Qin's cousin and cousin-in-law was a means of transportation for the two career women, the one given to Shen's eldest brother and sister-in-law and second sister-in-law Xiao Chuchu was a time-saving tool for scientists and engineers, and the reason given by Shen Anyu and Shen Anxuan was very direct: they had to drive after graduation anyway, so they should practice the feel first.
After graduating from the military academy, Peng Wei joined the army and became a regimental staff officer. He finally got a girlfriend at the age of 28, the one from his previous life. Grandpa Cao said that it was inappropriate to take a girl out to play in the army's car. What's the point of riding a bicycle when you're sweating? Peng Wei nodded repeatedly after hearing this reason and took the car keys very readily.
In fact, everyone knows that this is a gift that Grandpa Cao wants to give to the younger generation. Although the car is expensive, it is just a small gift for Grandpa Cao, and everyone accepts it with peace of mind.
At the end of May, there was a concert commemorating the International Year of Peace at the Workers' Stadium. Many units had tickets distributed internally, and the hospital was no exception. Shen Zixi and Qin Shutong had already started promoting the event to their younger brothers and sisters at home.
As the first group of children to be affected by the nine-year compulsory education system newly implemented this year, Shen Zixi and Qin Shutong felt that the world was about to collapse when they heard the news a month ago. After returning home, they hugged each other and cried, and said something to everyone they saw. They were supposed to graduate from junior high school and go to high school in two months, but inexplicably they had an extra third year of junior high school and a third year of high school. God knows how much they want to enter university life as soon as possible!
So in order to comfort their wounded hearts, the two of them started promoting at home early, so that the adults would have time to take them to listen to the performance that night.
This is the first time I've seen something as novel as a concert.
The little kids at home, like Peanut and Melon, were hearing about the concert for the first time. They would follow the adults around all day, constantly asking, "Are tickets available? When can we go? Is the concert fun?"
When Shen An Ning returned home with six tickets, she had an invisible belly and walked with the wind. Although Cao Jingheng's police station also issued one, he only had two. But Shen An Ning was the one who held six tickets. As soon as she got home, she was courted by a group of children.
"Auntie, you must be tired. Let me massage your shoulders. My technique is truly unique, the best in Beijing."
"Yeah, Auntie, my leg-kneading technique is definitely a famous one."
The two oldest children grabbed Shen Anning's shoulders and legs. Relying on their height advantage, Cao Siheng and Shen Zixuan, the little melon seed, squeezed through the legs of a group of older brothers and sisters and entered the encirclement. They nestled in their mother's arms and fanned her with their little hands, "Mom, you must be hot. Let me fan you."
"Auntie, auntie, let me fan you too."
Little Guazi, who is not even one and a half years old, has already shown the same personality as his father. He is outgoing and always smiling at everyone. He is the darling of the family.
Shen An Ning looked at the little guy who looked very much like his second brother, and looked at his chubby hands, which showed four gaps between his fingers when he was fanning himself with the wind, and he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
She hugged the little one and her son together and said, "Okay, okay, we have it all. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. No one is missing. Everyone can go."
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a scream that could blow the roof off the house, "Yeah yeah yeah yeah..."
The six tickets in Shen Anning's hand plus the two in Cao Jingheng's hand made a total of eight tickets. She distributed them to the anxious children one by one, saying as she distributed them, "Remember to keep them safe. If anyone's tickets are lost, they won't be able to go. Especially those who always lose theirs when collecting things. Pay special attention."
When Shen Ziyi heard his aunt say this, he was very resourceful, having experienced a beating before. He stuffed his ticket into his sister's hand and said, "Sister, I entrust my brother's ticket to you. You must help protect my brother."
Cao Siheng and Shen Zixuan were Shen Erbao's loyal followers. Seeing their brother do this, they easily stuffed the ticket into their sister's hand. Shen Anning, who was sitting on the stool, even breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her son.
Shen Zixi and Qin Shutong looked at each other. Being a sister is happiness, but sometimes it is also a burden!
With so many children going, their family members must follow. It just so happened that the time was scheduled for a weekend evening. After finishing dinner early, a group of twenty or thirty people drove a row of cars to the gymnasium.
Although they arrived more than an hour in advance, the entrance of the gymnasium was still crowded with people. Cao Jingheng, Chen Anyan and other grown men consciously protected the elderly, women and children in their families. As a result of their actions, everyone consciously made way for them. The middle seat in the third row had excellent visual and auditory views.
There were many people singing at a concert, but everyone, including a few children, remembered it vividly: "I used to ask you over and over again, when will you come with me, but you always laughed at me, saying I had nothing."
After returning home, Chen Ziyi gave everyone an imitation show. When he sang "When Will You Leave with Me", he looked at Peng Wei's girlfriend, his future aunt. When he sang "I Have Nothing", he grabbed his little pocket and looked at his father.
This caused Shen Anyan and Peng Wei to give him a gentle kick. Didn’t they see that the two uneducated kids below were already imitating their brother?
