Jiang Jun glared at Zhang Xiuying in disgust, lowered his eyelids and said nothing.
She didn't want to endure it, but she was disdainful.
Zhang Jinbao saw this and quickly stood in front of her: "Second sister, what are you thinking? Dani said she went to the division headquarters to register for the roster. She's looking for a job. The leaders are watching! Besides, she's only fifteen years old. Don't believe everything you hear. Do you think it's all you?"
Zhang Xiuying was furious: "Dabao, what are you talking about?"
Zhang Jinbao raised his hands in surrender: "Okay, okay, just pretend I didn't say anything."
Zhang Xiuying persisted, "They've been talking about it right up to my ears. How can I not be angry? Who can stand all that gossip?"
"Alright, alright, just pretend I was wrong and quickly give the household registration booklet to Danier. She's still waiting."
"If I don't give it to her, who knows what she'll do with the household registration booklet behind my back!"
After all the talk, they came back to the same place. The high-decibel noise made Jiang Yun's eardrums and head hurt.
Jiang Jun suddenly took a deep breath and shouted, "Uncle, don't worry about me. If you don't want the household registration book, then don't take it. Anyway, the person here recognizes my father! I'll go find my uncle in the department of my father and ask them to issue a certificate for me. I've been beaten so many times, I have to remember it!"
She deliberately emphasized the words "being beaten and taking notes".
Really, Jiang Yonghua’s two slaps couldn’t wake Zhang Xiuying up, so she would remind her again!
Zhang Jinbao was anxious and hurried forward to pull Zhang Xiuying: "Stop it, hurry up, the household registration book!"
Zhang Xiuying held her breath in her throat, and endured it again and again. Finally, she gritted her teeth and walked out of the room with her fists clenched.
Jiang Lan happened to come back from school and saw a bicycle parked outside the door. She knew it was her mother who had returned. Before she even entered the door, she shouted, "Mom, are you back?"
Before Zhang Xiuying's expression changed, her voice changed: "Xiaolan, Mom misses you so much!"
Jiang Lan couldn't wait to take out the celebrity photos from her schoolbag: "Mom, look!"
It was an enlarged version of the artist's photo, with a good angle, good expression, and clear development. I showed off it at school all day and my classmates were envious of me.
Zhang Xiuying was surprised. An enlarged photo would cost a lot of money. "Xiaolan, where did you get so much money to buy this?"
Jiang Lan said proudly, "It's free. Brother Chen gave it to me."
Zhang Xiuying scolded him, "Don't take it! He has bad intentions!"
As she spoke, she snatched the photo away. After just a glance, the artist's sweet smile hurt Zhang Xiuying's heart, and she raised her hand to tear the photo.
Jiang Lan was so scared that she almost cried: "Don't tear it, Mom, this is something I worked so hard to get."
Zhang Jinbao heard something wrong in the kitchen and rushed out. He snatched the things from Zhang Xiuying's hands skillfully: "Why do you always destroy things? If you don't want it, just give it back. If you broke it, you're going to pay for it."
I was still a beat too slow and a corner of the photo was torn off.
Jiang Lan was completely heartbroken and burst into tears.
Zhang Jinbao sighed and couldn't help scolding Zhang Xiuying: "Second sister, you've caused chaos as soon as you came back. My brother-in-law has already said what he wants. It's up to you to do what you want. Danier also said that you can take the household registration book if you want, or not. Let's just grab a bite to eat and hurry back to the factory."
Zhang Jinbao couldn't help and couldn't do anything. He had no choice but to drag Zhang Xiuying away.
Divorce and career change were the ultimate solution. Zhang Xiuying had no choice but to go to the bedroom and get her household registration booklet, threatening: "If I find out you've been doing something bad behind my back, I'll break your legs!"
In Zhang Xiuying's opinion, as long as she is her daughter, she has the right to beat and scold her.
Jiang Yun retorted coldly, "Let's wait until my dad retires!"
Damn it, I'll choke you to death if I don't say something harsh!
Zhang Xiuying was so angry that her face turned red. Before she could vent her anger, Zhang Jinbao dragged her into the house.
Jiang Jun glanced at the crying Jiang Lan and said, "Go wash your face and come to eat."
Washing your face means you have to stop crying and figure out why you can't cry anymore, otherwise you won't be allowed to eat.
This is the rule Jiang Jun set for Jiang Lan.
Jiang Lan was very good at judging the situation. The photo was still there, and her mother and uncle would be gone soon. As the eldest sister in the family, she had to listen to her! She stopped crying, put down her schoolbag with a wronged look, washed her face and hands, and obediently walked to the dining table in the outer room and sat down.
Jiang Jun served the noodles to the table, deliberately giving herself more soup than noodles. She had it in mind: if Zhang Xiuying started provoking her again during the meal, she would pour the noodle soup over her!
Maybe it was because the murderous look on Jiang Jun's face was too obvious, or maybe Zhang Xiuying was really afraid that Jiang Yonghua would write a divorce report, so she ate the meal quietly and calmly.
After dinner, Zhang Jinbao took Zhang Xiuying back to the chemical factory dormitory. Before leaving, he said to Jiang Jun, "Dani'er, your uncle can't take care of you. You and your sister should take good care of yourselves at home and do what you should do!" After saying that, he blinked his eyes, indicating that he supported Jiang Jun, and then turned and left.
Zhang Jinbao was telling Jiang Jun, you said you wanted to send a telegram to pick up grandma and grandpa, just go ahead and do it!
The results of a physical examination usually come out in ten days. Jiang Jun wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to send a telegram to her grandmother's house. Otherwise, she could leave at any time, and there would be no one to keep a close eye on the house. Plus, there were two people who didn't keep a close eye on the house, so sooner or later, trouble would arise.
She calculated the time it took to send the telegram back and forth, as well as the time the old man spent on the road. Even if no time was wasted, it would still take at least ten days.
Also, she didn't know whether her grandmother had enough money for the trip, and she didn't dare ask her uncle for money, for fear that Zhang Xiuying would find out.
After thinking it over, she decided to find Liao Mingzhe, the head of the confidential department, and ask him to take her to advance Jiang Yonghua's salary.
They had agreed to gather at 8:30 the next day for a physical examination, but Jiang Yun arrived at the division office building at 7:30.
Chen Yuanwu seemed to know that Jiang Jun would arrive early and had been waiting for her since early morning.
Coincidentally, all the people from the confidential department were out, and Jiang Jun was very disappointed.
Chen Yuanwu hurriedly asked, "Xiaojun, what do you want to do with Chief Liao?"
Jiang Yun did not avoid suspicion and expressed his thoughts and plans.
Chen Yuanwu said: "I have money, I can give it to you!"
The recruit's allowance was not much, but he had a lot of pocket money in savings, enough for him to buy two plane tickets, not to mention taking a train.
Jiang Jun certainly didn't want to refuse, but he still pretended to be polite: "How can I do that? I'd better wait for Uncle Liao and the others to come back. One day is not a big deal."
Chen Yuanwu took the lead: "Give me the address, and I'll go to the county post office to send a telegram and remit the bus fare at the same time."
Tongcheng Laoyinggou Forest Farm is located in a remote area, there is no telephone, and writing letters is too slow, so only telegrams can be sent.
In the 1970s, remittances, phone calls, and telegrams were all done through the post office. The post office also had a special window that provided priority services to soldiers. It was much more convenient for Chen Yuanwu to go there to handle things than for Jiang Yun.
Jiang Yun thanked him with a smile.
"You're welcome. You're my little..." Chen Yuanwu looked at Jiang Yun's slowly red face and said slowly, "Where's the teacher?"
