Aging is a particularly scary thing. When people get old, what they fear most is that they are no longer needed by their younger generations, as they will be regarded as a burden.
True filial piety means that you eat all the meals cooked by the elderly, happily take the money they give you when you visit them, and return the money double when you visit them during festivals or other reasons.
"Grandpa, is your work going well?"
What Yang Baiyi fears most is that his grandfather's job change will gradually alienate him from his old friends.
They were all wanderers in the past, but suddenly one day, one of them suddenly became the person who managed them. Not everyone can accept this kind of gap.
In particular, the ideological work that my grandfather was in charge of should be the department that the transferred cadres hated the most.
"No one knows better than me whether they have any ideological problems.
Some of the cadres who were transferred down to the countryside did so because they offended others, and some because they were too radical in developing the local economy, but their starting point was definitely good.
As for those intellectuals, most of them were sent down because they had studied abroad.
In the past, people hated those who were in charge of ideological work because they would fabricate charges against you in order to improve their work results.
After Li Hun disappeared, Director Sun was still very nice to everyone. My job was just to pretend, but in fact it was just Director Sun taking care of me.
Don't worry, my relationship with those old friends is still as good as before."
Xiao Qingyang knew what his grandson was worried about, but he didn't know why, but his grandson seemed to care more about his relationship with those old friends.
"That's good, Grandpa. You're old friends who've shared hardships together. Please don't let this ruin our relationship. If you have any difficulties, please tell me and I'll ask Director Sun to find you another job."
Yang Baiyi has a God's perspective. He knows that as long as these people who were demoted can save their lives, they will be reinstated in the future, and many of them can even make further progress.
Although this is a parallel world, Yang Baiyi cannot match the names of the people, and does not know if there are any hidden bosses in this farm, but it is better to make friends than to make enemies.
This group of people on the farm met at their respective lowest points, which can be said to be a true meeting of the humble.
As long as the relationship is maintained well, it will definitely be no less than that between classmates or fellow townsmen. After the redress, they will inevitably help each other.
"Okay, don't worry. I won't betray my conscience and precious friendship just to make myself feel more comfortable."
Xiao Qingyang has survived bullets and bloody battles, so of course he has his own principles.
"Grandpa, it's so hot now, can my uncle still handle going to work?"
What worries Yang Baiyi the most, apart from the nature of his grandfather's job, is his uncle who is still doing physical labor.
"I can handle it. The farm work is no harder than before. We have a lunch break at noon and the intensity of the work is not as high as before.
Plus, with Director Sun taking care of him, your uncle doesn't have to work very hard."
Xiao Qingyang's face was full of smiles, and he was full of praise for Sun Zhenhua when he mentioned him.
Although he also knew that his grandson had helped Sun Zhenhua a lot, his own family and old friends were also taken care of by Sun Zhenhua.
"That's good. If you can't handle it, please tell me and I'll find another way."
Yang Baiyi drank honey water and chatted with his grandfather, each talking about their recent situation. Before they knew it, it was noon.
"Grandpa, it's time for lunch. I'll go get some food from the cafeteria. Go call grandma and uncle over, and we'll eat in your office."
Yang Baiyi wanted to have a meal with his family. Usually, his grandfather ate in the small cafeteria, but his uncle could only eat in the big cafeteria, so he decided to eat in his grandfather's office.
"Okay, I'll go wait for them in the cafeteria."
The grandparents and grandchildren left the office and walked in different directions.
Yang Baiyi went to the small canteen to get food and directly ordered food for four people. The chef who served the food also knew Yang Baiyi and did not ask any questions. He served the food to Yang Baiyi very readily.
Doctor Yang is an excellent doctor and is highly regarded by Director Sun. Every time Doctor Yang comes, he usually eats in Director Sun's private room.
The chef is not a fool, so he would not make things difficult for this popular person in front of Director Sun.
Mu Xue and Xiao Fuxing were naturally very happy to see Yang Baiyi, especially Mu Xue, who held Yang Baiyi's hand and wouldn't let go.
He kept calling his grandson "big grandson" and asked about his granddaughter Yang Xiaoxiao's situation.
"Grandma, Xiaoxiao is doing very well. He can eat and sleep well, and he has grown a lot in the past few months. I will come over next month and try to find a Sunday. I will bring Xiaoxiao to see you then.
Grandma, I went to the county town yesterday and brought you a lot of cakes. Please try them first to see if they suit your taste.
Uncle, I also brought you some clothes. It’s hot and you sweat easily. You have to go to work every day, so it’s necessary to prepare a few more sets of clothes.”
Yang Baiyi took out the things he brought and handed them to Mu Xue and Xiao Fuxing, which moved them greatly.
Before meeting Yang Baiyi, Xiao Qingyang's family had the hardest time on the farm.
Most other people have families who mail things to them, but only they and a few people who have been distanced from their families have no one to help them.
They even live worse than those who have been drawn into a clear line. Those who have been betrayed by their families, at most, have no one to help them, and their lives are just a little more difficult.
But Xiao Qingyang and his wife, in addition to having a hard life, also live in guilt every moment, missing their lost daughter every moment.
Since meeting his grandson and granddaughter, Xiao Qingyang's family's life has undergone earth-shaking changes.
The eldest grandson was a capable man. He took the whole family home to spend the winter. In this era of material scarcity, the eldest grandson could always easily come up with all kinds of rare things.
There was meat and wine at every meal. Xiao Qingyang's family lived with their eldest grandson for a whole winter, but they didn't even eat a single bite of coarse grains.
After returning to the farm in spring, everything changed. Xiao Qingyang worked in the office, Mu Xue was assigned to the cafeteria, and Xiao Fuxing, the only one still working, no longer had to do heavy physical work.
The family knew that the reason Director Sun took such good care of them was because of his eldest grandson.
"My dear grandson, you don't have to bring us so many things every time you come. We have everything we need now.
Just bring Xiao Xiao with you next time. Grandma misses my precious granddaughter."
Mu Xue held Yang Baiyi's hand, feeling relieved but also a little distressed.
After all, my grandson is just a child under the age of twenty.
If his parents were still alive, he would still be attending school carefree and being spoiled by his parents.
But what about now? Not only do I have to support a family and take care of my younger sister, but I also have to help my grandparents and their family of three.
Who is born independent? Who is born excellent? It's because we have no one to rely on; we are forced by life.
