Chapter 134: How about letting the eldest brother bring Dabao? (3000 words added)
After he finished speaking, he concluded, "Anyway, call me back later and I'll have someone knock on the door. I don't think the chances of him being able to get out are very high. Of course, it's possible that he could hear it was you calling, but he still might not be able to get out."
After Zhou Nanxu hung up the phone, Guo Jiming asked someone to call for help. After thinking about it, he felt worried and decided to go and call the people himself.
Zhou Nanxu frowned after hanging up the phone.
Are you crazy?
He doesn't think so.
The computer cost 20,000 yuan. No wonder she spent all the money he gave her.
She has spent all her savings, but she still has money to spend. Is it because she has no money left that she is working so hard? Isn't this economical?
I would definitely feel embarrassed to ask my mother for money.
During the half hour of waiting for the call, Zhou Nanxu thought a lot.
Rong Mei spent all his savings over the years, um...
He was thinking that at the rate his wife was spending money, he really had to think about making more money, otherwise he wouldn't be able to support her in the future.
Half an hour later, Zhou Nanxu dialed the number again and waited for several minutes before the call was transferred.
The call was still answered by Guo Jiming.
He sighed, "Hey, Lao Zhou, it seems that your charm is still not working. Your comrade Xiaorong still refuses to come out. I knocked on the door for a long time, but there was no sound from inside. I was so scared that I almost broke in. Just when I was about to break in, your comrade Xiaorong spoke."
He made a sound, but only said one word - go.
He guessed that the person might have wanted to get out at that time, but he restrained himself because of his status.
He is not completely crazy yet, at least he still has a little bit of rationality left.
When I think about how this compound is getting better now, and even the old Fang family is now doing business, it seems that every family is about to become wealthy.
Alas, the Zhou family is indeed “crazy”! ! ! !
This is such a troublesome thing.
Zhou Nanxu was silent for a long while, pursed his lips, and said, "Old Guo, I can't leave here now and can't come back. I have to trouble you and the sisters-in-law to take care of her and adjust her meals every day. As for other things, she knows how to handle them. Don't let anyone disturb her before she comes out."
crazy?
He didn't think Rong Mei would go crazy. She always had her own plans and sense of propriety in doing things.
He knew that she was in a hurry to write the software she mentioned in the letter. Although he didn't quite understand, he knew how serious she was when she was working and she would not allow anyone to disturb her.
She must be working very hard now, but she doesn't go out every day, so she must not be eating well?
She said she was not picky about food, but after observing her for some time, he found that she was indeed "picky". Although she would eat everything, she would only take two bites of something she didn't like. If she came across something she liked, she would take a few more bites.
Now the workload is so heavy. If I can't help her with work, then at least I have to make sure she gets enough nutrition from food.
Rong Mei here has entered a state of ecstasy.
As for Guo Jiming's notice, it went in one ear and out the other ear immediately without any filtering.
I just vaguely remember that someone seemed to have come here once, but I forgot exactly why he came.
On the morning of the seventh day of retreat, Liu Rong returned.
It was the kind-hearted sister-in-law in the hospital who delivered the notice.
Liu Rong knocked on the door and looked at Rong Mei, whose eyes were red from staying up all night, and tears started to fall.
She went forward and hugged her, feeling distressed, and choked up, "What's wrong with you, child? Did Nan Xu write you something? If he dares to bully you, or makes you suffer, tell me, I will take care of it for you. Don't take it out on yourself. If something happens to you, how can I explain to your parents? How can I feel good about it........."
When Liu Rong's sister-in-law from the compound went to inform her, she really didn't expect the situation to be so serious.
Seeing how haggard she looked, the first thing she could think of was what her son had written in the letter and what kind of injustice he had suffered, otherwise how could he live like this?
He must have not slept for several days, his eyes are like this.
Rong Mei patted Liu Rong's back soothingly. "Mom, I'm fine. I just forget about time when I'm working. I'm used to it. Why are you back? The store must be very busy these two days, right?"
Fortunately, she finally made a breakthrough today. So she took a break, took a shower, washed her hair, and cleaned herself up. Except for the bloodshot eyes, she looked very energetic.
If I had seen how disheveled she looked yesterday, I would have probably cried even harder.
"Xiao Zhang and the others are in the store. I just heard from the sisters-in-law in the compound that you have been torturing yourself at home these past two days..." Liu Rong wiped the tears from her face. When she heard that it was about work, she felt relieved and said, "But you still have to rest and eat well even if you are working. Look at you, it's only been a few days. You finally have some fat on your face, and it's gone again."
Rong Mei took Liu Rong's hand and said coquettishly, "Food. Deputy Political Commissar Guo's sister-in-law sent me meals these past two days. They were delicious."
Well, it is said that there is a lot of human touch in this compound. Although the sisters-in-law are talkative, she knows that they told Liu Rong because they care about her.
And he didn't just call Liu Rong directly. Instead, after he tried to persuade her but failed, he went to tell Liu Rong about it.
There is also the family of Deputy Political Commissar Guo. When Deputy Political Commissar Guo came to her house, she was still in the process of "growing her brain" and her attitude towards people was inevitably a little cold, but she didn't care and even asked her sister-in-law to prepare special meals for her every day.
The sisters-in-law in the compound may have their own little thoughts on a daily basis, but when help is needed, they are definitely warm-hearted and willing to lend a helping hand.
They were all worried that something might happen to her while locked up in there. Everyone was concerned about her...
Be it the sisters-in-law in the compound or Liu Rong, the mother-in-law who is almost like her own mother, everyone cares about her silently.
You know, since opening the clothing store, Liu Rong has never left for a day, but today she rushed back early in the morning because she was worried about her.
Rong Mei felt warm in her heart.
In her previous life, she worked in the office for a month without sleep, and her family never even looked for her and said a word...
Liu Rong looked at Rong Mei and yawned again, and pushed her to go to sleep quickly, "You go to sleep for a while, I'll go back to cook first."
"Okay, I'll take a nap then." Rong Mei nodded without hesitation, and just as she finished speaking she couldn't help but yawn again.
She had originally planned to take a nap after washing her hair and taking a shower. She had only slept four hours a day in the past two days, and now she really couldn't bear it anymore.
This sleep.
Rong Mei slept for three hours.
It was cold, and Liu Rong didn't want her to run around, so after cooking, she brought all the food over from her original house.
Rong Mei sat down, picked up her chopsticks, and looked at the food on the table. She was really hungry. "Why bother with so much trouble? Mom, just call me and I'll go over and eat directly."
Liu Rong kept picking up dishes for Rong Mei while muttering, "There are only a few dishes. I brought them all over in a basket. I left them outside for a while, so I don't know if they are cold or not."
The weather was cold, so when she put it in the basket and carried it over, she wrapped it with several layers of cloth. But the weather was a bit cold, so she was afraid that it would get cold.
"It's still hot. Mom, don't just pick food for me. You should eat too." Rong Mei picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork from the bowl, put it in her mouth, tasted it, and nodded with a smile.
"You have to eat more. Your job requires a lot of brainpower, so you need to eat more good food to replenish your body." Liu Rong then sat down, still muttering.
He had just put a piece of food into the bowl with chopsticks, and as if he had thought of something, he put the bowl down again and looked up at Rong Mei, "By the way, your elder brother has sent a letter."
Rong Mei's blue eyes flashed, and she asked a lot of questions in succession, "Did big brother write to me? What did he say? Are they all right at home? How about Dabao? Does he like the toys I bought for him? And how are big sister and second sister?"
Liu Rong pursed her lips and sighed, "Your eldest brother said that he and your eldest sister-in-law are divorced."
"Eldest brother and eldest sister-in-law are divorced?!" Rong Mei exclaimed and grasped the key point, repeating Liu Rong's words.
He regained his composure in just a second, picked up the food in the bowl and took a small bite, then asked Liu Rong calmly, "Did you tell me how you got divorced? Did you figure it out yourself, brother? Or did you mention it to him in your last letter?"
The reason for being surprised was simply because of Zhou Zhengfu's decisive attitude this time. Could they really get divorced like this?
If it were really that easy, how could Luo Xiuxiu be so arrogant in the past few years?
In Rong Mei's eyes, Zhou Zhengfu is actually "cowardly", especially when it comes to dealing with the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. If it weren't for his countless indulgences, Luo Xiuxiu would not have gone so far and let Liu Rong suffer bullying for so many years in vain.
But she also knew that Zhou Zhengfu didn't have any bad intentions and treated Liu Rong as her own mother. However, even when the relationship between the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law had obviously deteriorated to the point where it was out of control, she naively wanted to mediate and act as a balance to keep the relationship between the two parties balanced and stable.
In Rong Mei's eyes, this was either overestimating her own abilities or a sign of cowardice and inaction.
But fortunately, Zhou Zhengfu's heart was at least with Liu Rong, and he was not foolish enough to stand on the side of the Luo family. Besides, Liu Rong herself chose to be tolerant. Everyone has their own way of dealing with things. She couldn't criticize others for doing something wrong just because they didn't do it according to her ideas, and she had to do this and that...
But they got divorced so quickly this time. No matter what, it was because Zhou Zhengfu showed some "guts".
She could actually deal with those people from the Luo family. She had the honor of witnessing the tyranny of the Luo family.
She was afraid that if Zhou Zhengfu proposed this marriage, Luo Xiuxiu would find someone to beat him up. How could she agree to divorce so easily?
Not only Rong Mei thought so, but Liu Rong also thought so.
"Your eldest brother's letter didn't mention how to get a divorce, but he just talked about it. Do you think the Luo family would agree if he was the one proposing the marriage? Your eldest brother wouldn't have suffered a lot again, would he?"
Over the years, Liu Rong has dealt with the Luo family many times. She knows exactly what kind of people the Luo family is. Liu Rong is worried that Zhou Zhengfu is alone at home. If the people from Luojiatun come to his house to make trouble, she doesn't know if he can handle it alone.
And there is Dabao. It is Dabao that worries her the most. She cannot let the people from the Luo family snatch her eldest grandson away.
Rong Mei frowned, searching her mind for the fastest way to get in touch, "How about sending a telegram back? Ask Big Brother to call me when he gets to the city?"
This is what it was like when there were no mobile phones and communications were underdeveloped.
There is no telephone in my hometown, so I can't call from here. The only way to make a call is to go to the post office in the county town. It takes another ten days or half a month to write a letter, and it takes almost a month to go there and back. I can only send a telegram and leave the city's phone number. Even if it is a city phone, it is only a public phone in the newsstand diagonally opposite the store.
The store hasn't installed a telephone yet because it would cost one or two thousand yuan to install one, and that's the price of an old-fashioned rotary phone. If it were a push-button phone, it would cost around three thousand yuan.
The family could afford to install a public telephone, but didn't she just spend 20,000 yuan? And even if the phone was installed in the store, there wouldn't be too many calls coming in, and she didn't have too many calls to make, so it would be better to use a public phone at the newsstand when she needed it.
And if you leave your number there, if someone calls in, the newsstand owner will ask you to answer the phone. After all, it's not just the call that costs money, but the answering of the call is also charged, but the answering is slightly cheaper.
Seeing this, she really had to speed up the work at hand. After finishing this, she would use the data transmission optimization algorithms in future mobile network programming to improve the current telephone network data transmission efficiency and try to lower the price of this phone.
Develop a “Big Brother” of your own country as soon as possible! ! ! !
But in this case, the switchboard will disappear early...
Can this be considered as promoting the early development of technology?
I don’t know if my actions will cause other butterfly effects.
"Then I'll send a telegram when I get back to the city."
Now that she had earned money, Liu Rong would not be reluctant to send a telegram worth ten or eight yuan. Even if it was just thirty yuan, in order to get in touch with her family as soon as possible, she would spend the money without blinking an eye.
Rong Mei thought about it and decided to propose it to Liu Rong.
"Well, mother, why don't you let big brother and Dabao come here together? Dabao should be old enough to go to school, so let him come here to study. The education here, any school, is better than the education we have in the village. As for big brother, it's better for him to do something here than to dig a few acres of land at home."
