"If you're demoted to a lower grade, your mother might have to go to a junior college in the neighboring city of G.
City G is a second-tier city in Province Z, right next to them.
"Dad, it's okay. We will be fine. After I graduate, I want to be a technician. There is a shortage of technicians right now. I will definitely do well for you."
Father Ying patted his son's shoulder and said with satisfaction, "Well done, son. I heard from Mr. Pei that the current reform is in a period of shortage of talents. Even an old antique like Dad needs to study hard."
"Dad, we all support you. As the saying goes, it's never too late to learn."
"Haha, that's right."
No one in the family cared about my parents' demotion. The only thing was that my mom had to go out to coach, and the whole family was reluctant to let her go.
But this is the arrangement of the superiors.
The news of the Ying couple's return spread throughout the compound the next day, and many people came to greet and congratulate them.
Some people are not so sincere and come here just to see what their parents have been through over the years.
The human heart is always sharp, and such people are not the ones they want to make close friends with.
My mother just gave me a cold look.
In the past few years in the countryside, we have been working all day, so our skin is naturally not good, and my parents' palms are covered with calluses.
Ying Han has been collecting some mist in his space every day these days to make tea for his parents. He believes that in a few days, his skin will be a hundred times better than those who are showing off now, and they will be envious of him.
Wang Erliang, whom my father used to call a brother, has never been visited by his parents since they came back. It seems that they are also feeling guilty.
Dad is reporting to the army these days, and school is about to start over at Mom's place.
A few days before school started, Dad found a car, and the whole family took daily necessities and sent Mom to the neighboring city.
It takes more than an hour to get from City Z to the county-level city where my mother is going.
The school here is in the suburbs, surrounded by farmland, and it is very desolate.
There are only two buses from the city to here every day.
The school assigned my mother to the second floor of the teachers' dormitory building. The teachers' dormitory building has four floors, with more than 20 households on each floor.
It's a small single room, cooking is done in the corridor outside, and the bathroom and water room are shared.
Fortunately, the room my mother was assigned was some distance away from the bathroom, otherwise the smell would be there every day in the summer.
"Oh, I forgot to get a gas tank for Mom." Ying Li looked at the simple room and frowned.
"Brother, drive to the county town to buy something for Mom. Buy a bucket of paint while you're at it so we can paint the walls for Mom."
"Your brother and I will go together and buy an electric fan for your mother." Ying's father felt that the hard-core conditions were not good, and the best way was to improve them materially.
"Don't spend that money. Summer's almost over. I can handle it for a few days."
"How can I cope with this? I've suffered so much in the countryside, I can't suffer again when I come back."
Father Ying said this and left with his son.
There was nothing in this room except a small, rusty iron bed of about 1.5 meters and a desk with peeling paint.
There is a nice balcony, but it has no glass.
Ying Han wanted to redecorate his mother's house, seal the windows, get a good bed, and get a wardrobe, desk, and so on.
"Mom, you stay here first. I'll make you a desk and a wardrobe someday, change the bed, and seal up the window."
Ying's mother smiled and said, "Why make so much trouble? It's fine like this." Being able to come back is better than anything else. The conditions here are much better than those in the countryside.
"That won't work. It will be very cold in the winter. Besides, the windows have been sealed to keep out the draft. Everyone else has sealed their windows too."
"Isn't there a door here? I'll just close it."
"No, it's not windproof, and it's not safe."
When Dad and my brother came back, they were carrying up bags of all sizes.
The clothes and quilts that her mother brought back were put back into the car. Ying Han borrowed some newspapers from the neighbor teacher's house and folded a few paper hats.
While Mom and Dad were cleaning the dust off the wall with a broom, the brother and sister began to help Mom repaint the wall.
At noon, my mother used the new gas hood to make a simple noodle dish for the whole family.
"Hello, new teacher. My last name is Liu and I teach Chinese." The family next door came out to cook and saw my mother and greeted her with a smile.
"Hello, Teacher Liu, my last name is Yun, and I teach mathematics."
"Hello, Teacher Yun, where is your home..."
"My two children insisted on helping me repaint the whole house."
"Oh, I can tell you're very particular."
Teacher Liu wears a pair of glasses and is in her forties. She and her husband, Teacher Li, are both teachers at this school, one teaches Chinese and the other teaches history.
They have two children, one works and the other is still in school. They come back to stay for two days on Sundays.
Most of the people on this floor are older, all teachers of the older generation, and there are really not many young people.
After simply painting the walls, Ying Han and Ying's mother swept the floor.
Tonight, Ying's father took them back again.
Wait for the house to air out for two days before letting mom come over.
Yinghan helped his mother make a desk these two days.
I can only do this one because I don’t have time.
Three days later, they sent their mother there and left reluctantly.
After returning home, his brother also went to school with his tape recorder, and Ying Han also started a new semester.
This year, when school started, quite a few new students showed up to report.
The school became more lively.
They also have to learn new knowledge this semester.
"Hanhan, I haven't seen you for a summer vacation. You've become whiter again." After arriving at the dormitory, several people began to discuss the little interesting things that happened during the summer vacation.
My dear, there is more to this chapter. Please click on the next page to continue reading. It will be even more exciting later!
