Chapter 134
Yan Lei was probably the most angry or even the only one who was angry about Lin Xixi and Lu Tianze getting married.
Captain Zhao and Sister Yang were not angry.
They didn't have time.
Teacher Pan came in person as the temporary parent of the man. When he explained his intention, Captain Zhao and Sister Yang were both confused.
Xixi and Tianze?
Regardless of age, personality or anything else, these two people were unlikely to be together in their minds.
They were confused and shocked and didn't have time to get angry. Teacher Pan told them: "The old lady called me personally."
The old lady already knew the situation of the girl and she agreed.
She promised that no matter what the future situation is, as long as the girl marries Lu Tianze, no matter whether Lu Tianze can be rehabilitated in the future, or whether the girl can give birth to children for Lu Tianze, as long as she marries Lu Tianze, she will have a share of the future family property.
She will never be left without a place to stay.
In normal times, the old lady and Lu Tianze would never fall in love with a rural girl like Lin Xixi.
But now is not a normal time.
The old lady has seen too many people who couldn't bear it and committed suicide in Beijing. The old lady just hopes that her son can live well. She has already lost one son and cannot lose the last one.
As long as he can live well, nothing else matters.
In the eyes of Master Pan, it is almost the same.
And now no one knows how long the current situation will last, maybe ten years? Maybe twenty years? Maybe there will be no end?
Then Lu Tianze needs a woman to take care of him.
This kind of care includes both daily life and physical care.
At this time, Lu Tianze is a virgin. It happens that Lin Xixi is the son of a poor peasant of eighteen generations, with a good family background.
Lu Tianze needs someone to take care of him. It happens that Lin Xixi is hardworking and virtuous, and the best thing she can do is to serve people.
Lu Tianze has the needs of a man, and it happens that Lin Xixi is young, beautiful and has the desire of youth.
Everything is just right.
In the era of dislocation, two people who are not suitable for each other have needs for each other like gears.
The mood of Captain Zhao and Sister Yang is extremely complicated.
They both knew that the money the old lady transferred from Beijing every month was much higher than the wages of ordinary workers.
They could even guess that with their limited knowledge, they might not be able to estimate the "family property" in Beijing.
But, but, I always feel that Tianze and Xixi...seem...
Their hesitation was seen by Teacher Pan. He pondered for a moment and asked, "If you don't choose Tianze, what kind of person can you two find for Xiaolin in the future?"
Captain Zhao and Sister Yang looked at each other.
What kind of person?
No matter what kind you find, you can't find someone like Lu Tianze.
That girl is arrogant and wants to find a city person. Probably no city person she can meet in her life can compare to Lu Tianze.
This is the ceiling.
If you miss it, it's gone.
If you find her someone who is not as good as Lu Tianze in the future, will she resent them for the rest of her life?
Sister Yang said hesitantly: "You have to ask her..."
Teacher Pan smiled slightly: "I have already asked."
"Tianze took her to see me, and she agreed."
When Qiao Wei heard the news, she found that she was not surprised.
Or, when she knew that Lu Tianze's ex-wife remarried, she already had a hunch.
This is because Qiao Wei's social circle overlaps with Lin Xixi's. Or it should not be said to overlap, but Qiao Wei's social circle covers Lin Xixi's social circle.
Among the people they could contact, when Lu Tianze appeared in front of Qiao Wei, in fact, Qiao Wei's brain flashed in -this person ... is the only person they can contact, except that Yan Lei meets Lin Xixi. " He was at
a loss," I am not the real elder of Kobayashi. Lao Zhao agreed, and I didn't say anything. " Yan Lei was much younger than the head of Zhao, but he and the brothers of Zhao. Brothers' niece, the four houses and five are about his niece. Lu Tianze is also his brother . Qiao Wei advised him: "They both agree, and so do their parents, so don't worry about it." "No matter what, I can't control it. He's not a good person, I knew it a long time ago." Yan Lei was still angry. But he couldn't do anything about it, because Lin Xixi really wanted to be with him. Lu Tianze told him. He asked Lu Tianze why he fell in love with Lin Xixi. The girls who wrote to Lu Tianze in the past were all talented. They were not on the same level as Lin Xixi. Lu Tianze smiled lazily. "She is a smart girl, and I like that about her." He said. "What do you want from me?" He asked Lin Xixi directly. Lin Xixi had something in mind for him. Although she didn't dare to act rashly, she couldn't hide what she was thinking from his sharp eyes. Lu Tianze knew it all along. But she was always honest, so he didn't expose it. Until now. Lin Xixi's basin fell to the ground. Dirty clothes were scattered. She squatted down in a panic to pick them up. Lu Tianze was very patient and waited for her. Lin Xixi put all the dirty clothes into the basin, made up her mind, and raised her face. "I want to live a good life."
"I hope you can be rehabilitated in the future and take me to Beijing."
"Even if you are not rehabilitated, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and it is not a loss to follow you."
"I, I am very good at taking care of people. I can take good care of you."
"I can also take good care of your mother. When she is older, I promise to take good care of her and make her comfortable and clean." "
I can also give birth to children for you, I can give birth to many."
"I just want to go to Beijing with you, live in a big house, drive a small car, and be an official's wife!"
"Otherwise, I don't care!"
"She has a clear mind and knows what she wants." Lu Tianze said to Yan Lei, "This alone has surpassed many people."
What's more, she is young and beautiful. Her uncle is a regimental-level cadre. She lives with them and can barely be considered a half-cadre family child.
In the future, she can treat her uncle's home as her mother's home.
Everything is just right.
If it's too early or too late, too much or too little, too fast or too slow, it probably won't work. Right now, right now, it's just right.
"By the way, what does 'the red flag is flying at home, and the colorful flags are flying outside' mean?" Yan Lei asked Qiao Wei, "I don't understand."
Lu Tianze still refused to explain to him, and he said with a sly smile: "If you don't understand, it's best not to understand."
What the hell.
Qiao Wei guessed: "Xixi said it?"
Lu Tianze said Lin Xixi said she didn't care.
"Yes." Yan Lei asked, "How do you know?"
How did Qiao Wei know. Because this sentence was only said later, because the current era does not have the context described in this sentence at all.
At this time, the problem of lifestyle is a big problem.
Losing your job is a light punishment, and you have to be XX. When XX, the woman has to hang a pair of broken shoes around her neck.
Of course, there are still some people who do it, but compared to later generations, they are very few, and they do it secretly and dare not show it. Unlike later generations, "Men become bad when they have money" and "Red flags are flying at home, and colorful flags are flying outside."
Yan Lei couldn't make any associations from this sentence at all, and he couldn't understand it as soon as he heard it like Lu Tianze.
Qiao Wei smiled and said, "If you don't understand, it's best not to understand."
Yan Lei: "..."
What's wrong with each of them!
Lin Xixi married Lu Tianze just like this.
She moved from her uncle's house to the small courtyard in the northwest, and quietly became a husband and wife with Lu Tianze.
In another time and space, she didn't get pregnant for a year after marrying Yan Lei, until she followed Yan Lei back to Yan Zhuang, and Yan Lei completely stood on her side. Not long after returning, she became pregnant.
In this time and space, she married Lu Tianze in October and found out she was pregnant in December.
When Qiao Wei brought gifts to see her, her face was filled with happiness.
The child's grandmother sent a lot of things from Beijing, including a large sum of money. The money was specifically for Lin Xixi.
Lin Xixi gently stroked her belly, knowing that what was in her belly was her meal ticket for the rest of her life.
Reassurance.
Another New Year's Day has passed.
Spring Festival, Women's Day, Youth Day, Labor Day, Children's Day, the Party's birthday, Army Day... Time is like quicksand in the fingertips, and like an unstoppable river. In
September, something big happened, the overall situation changed, and it affected many people.
For example, Commander Pan was promoted to Army Commander, and Yan Lei overwhelmed other regimental-level cadres and was promoted to Commander.
For example, Meng Zuoyi was finally rehabilitated with the help of his comrades and relatives who had been running around for several years.
The organizational structure is different now. It used to be the county committee and county government, but now it is the Revolutionary Committee.
Meng Zuoyi was rehabilitated and restored to his post. Originally, his superiors wanted to arrange for him to go to another county, but Meng Zuoyi refused. He entered the Bocheng County Revolutionary Committee as a deputy director at the level of a director.
In December, Huang Zengyue, then director of the Bocheng County Revolutionary Committee, was pulled down.
It was revealed that he was not a legitimate working-class child. His grandfather was once a capitalist, but later went bankrupt and hid in the ranks of the working class.
In fact, Qiao Wei's grandmother was similar, but not as serious as Huang Zengyue's.
Mainly because she was a woman. At that time, a person's class background still followed that of his husband and father.
Of course, the most important thing was that no one knew.
Huang Zengyue's case was much more serious because he followed his father and grandfather.
Meng Zuoyi was promoted to director of the Revolutionary Committee.
He was quite lenient to Huang Zengyue and did not lock him up in a shed, giving him personal freedom. He
was just dragged out of his home every day to parade or fight in a mass meeting.
It was New Year's Day again.
Huang Zengyue had gone home that day, and someone came and banged on the door and took him away.
His family watched him leave with those people numbly.
This kind of situation often happens.
But he didn't come back until very late that night.
His family was worried and went to ask for him with flashlights. The person on duty said impatiently: "He was released a long time ago."
The family had a bad feeling and looked everywhere for him. Finally, they found him on a small road without street lights near his home.
Director Huang, who was once glorious, was hung on a tree.
Meng Zuoyi carried it for five years.
Huang Zengyue didn't last more than half a month.
Everyone watched this drama and sighed.
Yan Lei accompanied Qiao Wei to that road.
It has been six or seven years since Yan Lei brought Qiao Wei back from the provincial capital. This is the first time he has seen the description of "distraught" on Qiao Wei.
The first day Qiao Wei heard the news of Huang Zengyue's death, she was in a state of distraught.
Yan Lei was very worried about her.
Qiao Wei stood under the tree for a long time, mumbling.
Yan Lei was beside her and could hear something.
"I know you are not such a weak person..." she said.
"I'm sorry..." she said.
He didn't know why she apologized.
She asked him for a cigarette, lit it, and took a puff.
Yan Lei never knew she could smoke.
She stuck the cigarette in the soil under the tree, and the fire burst out, with white smoke curling up.
It was considered a memorial service.
After Yan Lei was promoted, all his treatment was improved.
The two of them moved to a more upscale two-story building in the compound. Yan Lei had a guard by his side, and his own driver and car.
But Qiao Wei couldn't sleep these few days.
On the night after paying tribute to Huang Zengyue, Yan Lei woke up and found that Qiao Wei was not in bed.
He went downstairs to the living room and found her in a daze in the dark.
"What's wrong?" he asked. "Can't sleep?"
Qiao Wei looked at him with strange eyes.
"Yan Lei, do you know what the butterfly effect is?" she asked.
Yan Lei shook his head.
"When a butterfly flaps its wings, a hurricane blows across the ocean. It's a metaphor for a tiny variable that causes a huge change."
"Yan Lei, do you believe that if I didn't exist in this world, Lin Xixi would marry you?"
"You would still live well, you would still get promoted, and you would have more children."
Yan Lei stared at her in the dark.
In the darkness, Qiao Wei seemed to be able to speak freely.
"If I hadn't been so nosy, maybe Director Meng wouldn't have survived until now. He would have been tortured to death by those people two years ago."
"But in that case, Zeng Yue wouldn't have died."
"Yan Lei, Zeng Yue is not that kind of person. He wouldn't hang himself up."
"Maybe I shouldn't exist." She said, "I shouldn't exist in this world."
Yan Lei stepped forward and lowered his head to question: "How can you not exist?"
Qiao Wei looked up at him and suddenly smiled.
Weird.
"Maybe, that year in the provincial capital," she said, "I'm already dead, believe it or not."
