Chapter 32: A sudden enlightenment
Southern Yunnan was not peaceful, and Lu Zhenping had almost no rest. One day, he just got off the training ground and saw the orderly running over with a letter.
"Lu Tuan, your letter."
Lu Zhenping raised his eyebrows after receiving it. This was the third letter from home this month. In the past, it was never so frequent. Only when there was something going on at home would his parents write to him. As for his wife, it was normal to receive only one letter in half a year.
After opening the letter and reading it, Lu Zhenping found it very interesting. When did his wife suddenly become so smart that she knew how to fight back? He was quite satisfied when he saw it.
The entire letter was filled with his mother's complaints about Shen Meng's disobedience, his disobedience, his withholding of her pension and food coupons, the difficult times at home, and that she should just write her name when sending things and remitting money next time.
At the end of the letter, Lu Jiaxuan mentioned again, asking him to help greet the people in the Revolutionary Committee in his hometown and let him work there.
After Lu Zhenping finished reading it, he stuffed it back into the envelope, and after returning to the office, he put it together with the previous letter. After thinking it over again, he still picked up the pen and wrote a letter to Lu Changhong.
He was very curious about Shen Meng's ability to fight back, but he was also worried about the children. When he left home, he told her openly and secretly that she should take care of the children. He also called the Shen family's elders. His parents-in-law were reasonable people and promised to visit from time to time. There was Lu Changhong in the village, the Shen family's elders outside, and he also called the commune and the county.
He arranged everything that could be arranged. He thought it was foolproof before, but since he knew he was a father, he knew that all arrangements could not make him feel at peace. This unrest made him feel guilty about Mingyang's children.
Of course, there was Shen Meng!
Thinking of Shen Meng, Lu Zhenping felt a little strange. He rummaged through the drawer and found a slightly damp cigarette in the crotch of the drawer. He lit it up and took a
puff. It made him cough for a long time. "I heard you coughing from a distance. Where did you find this? It's moldy, right? Why are you still smoking it?" Ma Xiang looked at him with disdain, stretched out his hand and threw something at him. Lu Zhenping took it and was happy to hold it in his hand. Cigarette.
"I don't like it. If you insist on giving it to me, I'll take it." Then he opened it and took out a cigarette, and smoked the damp cigarette.
"What are you doing? I saw you look worried just now. Are you worried about these new recruits?"
Lu Zhenping shook his head. Why should he worry about the new recruits? He should worry about the squad leaders and battalion commanders who are training the new recruits. Why should he, the deputy regiment commander, worry about such things? What's the point of being the leader
? "Nothing, orderly."
"Here!"
"Send this letter."
"Yes."
Ma Xiang glanced at the letter when he was delivering it. It was sent to his hometown. He must be homesick. He heard that there was another letter from his hometown today. There has never been such a situation before. Could it be that something happened at home?
He did not dare to speak. Lu Zhenping was very secretive about his family affairs and rarely talked about them. The first time he asked his comrades for help was for the adoption of Mingyang. He was thinking that his family should live a tight life this month so that if Old Lu had any difficulties, he could squeeze out some money to help him.
Lu Zhenping squinted his eyes and rubbed his fingers. He took a deep puff of the cigarette, which made his eyes and eyebrows cold. It was time to separate from the Lu family.
Shen Meng didn't know what Lu Zhenping was thinking, but if she knew that Lu Zhenping had so many people around her to help and take care of their mothers, it was to make their lives more comfortable and to make their children's lives better.
She would probably point at Lu Zhenping's forehead and point it hard, naively, too naively.
The powerful halo of men and women cannot be balanced by your supporting role. It will only make you offline faster and more miserably! ! !
Shen Meng met Zhang Hongfa two days ago and told him about the schooling of several children. He wanted Lu Zhenping to help him, but he was worried that he had nowhere to use his energy, so the opportunity came to him.
The tuition fee was 1.3 yuan per semester. The Lu family knew that Shen Meng had registered with her three children, which caused another uproar. Lu Jiahe still hated her for sharing food, and said that if they wanted to eat at the Lu family's house, they had to pay for food, otherwise the food would be shared, which was no different from splitting up the family. He
didn't get much of the things his eldest brother sent back this time, and his mother often sent people to the big room to deliver food, which really made him very angry.
He and Liu Sanjin quarreled over this matter. During the conversation, Liu Sanjin mentioned that Lu Jiaxuan was going to build a house. This stirred up a hornet's nest. Although he only knew how to work and eat, it didn't mean that he was a loser. If the fourth child's family wanted to build a house, he had to do it too. The Lu
family quarreled every day, but Shen Meng and the children got closer and closer. The closest ones were Lu Mingfang and Lu Mingkai. The two of them stuck to her every day and didn't want to be apart for a moment, which made Lu Mingyang jealous.
"Mom, what are we going to eat tonight?"
"Have you learned the characters that your aunt taught you today?"
Lu Mingliang ran back to find his notebook and showed Shen Meng the character "Liang" on his notebook. The handwriting was crooked and there was a missing horizontal line in the "口".
"Mom, look at how well I write. My brother can't write as well as I do. My aunt said that I will be very good at studying in the future and will be a potential top scholar."
Shen Meng: "......."
One is really brave to say it, and the other is really brave to believe it!!!
"It's good. Let's eat dumplings in the evening. Mom has mixed the stuffing in the afternoon. There is meat in it. You all eat more in the evening. Mom left a small half of the bowl. Later, you and your brother will shout out the second anniversary of Daqing. You used to eat it with others. It was all Daqing mother's fault. You Aunt Xifeng saved it, so we have to remember her kindness."
Mingyang looked at his brothers and sisters outside and listened to his mother's words, feeling happy in his heart. Although he felt sorry for the food at home, when his ex-grandma didn't provide food, he still had others to help him.
However, when he saw the way Mingliang interacted with his mother, he felt extremely envious.
"Mom, have we been eating too well these days, eating meat soup, spare ribs, dumplings, and steamed buns? Mom, you suddenly eat so much, I'm very panicked, is it... are we not going to live long?"
Lu Mingliang muttered softly. He heard that people should eat better when they die, so as not to be a starving ghost in the next life. Since his mother got better, she cooked for him and his brothers in different ways every day. At first, he was very happy to eat.
But gradually he became afraid. An old man in the village passed away a few days ago. When he died, he ate a white flour meat bun and cried while eating it, saying that he would not be a starving ghost in the next life.
Shen Meng: "..."
I have to say that your brain is really too smart sometimes! ! !
