Three hundred and sixty-two chapters visit relatives (2)
My father said, "I'm not there long ago. I've been transferred to the city. I've moved to the city at the trade union and my home has moved to the city. It's just in Yongfeng. When you go to the city, you must go to the house to sit there. This time I'm close to you, so I'll make a statement if you have any questions."
Mr. Qingge said: "That's OK. This time I'm getting closer. Okay, I'll go to the city to see you after the New Year."
The eldest child next to him said, "Dad, Uncle San has given too much. We are one hundred each, so let's give it to you. We only need to leave five dollars each." He handed over the money.
Mr. Qingge looked at his father: "Why are you giving so much? Take it back and take it back, Lao Zhang, go see Mancang's wife, right?"
Zhang Xingming prepared all new money, not showing any thicker.
The father stopped the aunt and said, "What are you doing? I'm burying money? I gave it to the child, this is Gaha's play."
Mr. Qingge said: "It's not that. It's not easy for you, third brother. It's not easy for you. It's not easy for Guixin to not work. My dear buddy, it's not easy."
My father said, "Okay, don't fight. My family is in good condition now, and I don't point to my little bit. I just bought the treasury tickets directly. My family has been doing business for many years and has earned a lot. You will know when you go there later. If you give the money to the child, you will ask the child to take it, buy schoolbags, stationery, and clothes. It's so old that I go to school and have some money in my pocket."
Mr. Qingge nodded, patted his father on the shoulder, and said to the eldest child: "Okay, you can keep the one you gave to by your third uncle."
The eldest child said, "Thank you, Uncle San. That's too much. Forget it, mom, please help us collect it, don't lose it." He handed the money to the aunt, and took it to her pocket.
Mr. Qingge was happy and lit a cigarette and said, "Oh, you guys have a good life, it's so good. Why did you join the union? The front-line salary is higher than that of the union?"
My father was a little embarrassed and scratched his head and said, "No, I gave it to a small cadre. The vice chairman is fine, I'm idle every day."
Mr. Qingge was surprised and said, "Oh, this is Cheng's leader, which factory union?"
Dad said: "The company is in the company's union."
Uncle Qingge patted his father heavily and said, "What level can it be? Do you have to be the deputy director?"
My father's face turned slightly red and said, "I'll just follow me."
Mr. Qingge said: "It's amazing. Our family has also come out to have a big leader. We are the chief minister. We are the chief minister. You are at the same level as the county governor. We have to have a drink and be happy."
My dad said, "Don't, I can't drink you. My buddy is the only one who can drink it. Besides, I just came here and was the first to enter your house. I haven't gone to the fort yet. Second brother, fourth and sixth brothers, I have to go and see it. After that, I will go to Sidaohe to see the fifth brother. After so many years, I will check it out from house to house."
Mr. Qingge sighed and said, "Aren't Gui Xin angry?"
My mother said, "Forget it, the past is over, and the old man is gone, why are he a friend? His bones are broken and his tendons are still connected."
Uncle Qingge nodded and said, "Qingzhi finds a good wife. Guixin, you can think so. I really thank you for my buddies. I was young at that time, let's talk about my uncle, okay, let's not talk about it when the person leaves. Okay, then I won't keep you anymore. Go to the fort." He lowered his voice and said, "The second wife may not be able to do it. I'm the same disease as my aunt, and I'm afraid I won't be able to survive this year."
Zhang Xingming's grandfather is good at being a big man, and Uncle Qingge's father is good at being a fourth, so he is a real friend.
My father looked at my mother in surprise. My mother thought for a while, sighed and said, "Let's go and have a look. If it doesn't work, please take the city to hospital. This is definitely not enough to stay at home."
In that era, the conditions of the hospitals in the city were not as good as those in the current community clinics. There were no barefoot doctors in the countryside, and there were no more barefoot doctors. The villagers had to get up early to catch a train to the county, and if they were seriously ill, they had to go to the city. Moreover, farmers had no money and could not afford to be hospitalized, so they could only take some medicine to go home and stand up. With the heavens, God would live, and if Gods would not be allowed, they would have to wait for death.
After leaving Uncle Qingge's house, the whole family got into the car and waved goodbye to Uncle Qingge. Uncle Qingge's family stood at the entrance of the yard and watched the car walk away.
The eldest child said, "My third uncle's house looks so spacious. I have never seen this car before. I guess I have to pay for it."
Mr. Qingge said: "Okay, it's really OK now. This is the best among our brothers. Alas, now the countryside is comparable to the city."
The aunt said, "When I go into the house, it's so cold that I'm standing here to see what I'm looking at. I haven't finished the dough yet. The eldest child will split some firewood, Xingliang, the eldest child has handed over the money. Are you planning to keep it in your pocket?"
Xingliang covered his trouser pocket and said, "I'll leave ten dollars, okay?"
The aunt said, "Your brother only left five yuan."
Uncle Qingge patted his body, turned around and walked into the house, and said, "Stay away, it's the New Year." The aunt stopped talking. The uncle was the pure head of a family at home. The countryside is different from the city. Most families are the final say.
Three cars here walked into the fort and drove along the river for another 300 meters. Zhang Xingming said: "Stop. Dad, my fourth uncle's house."
The father looked out and said, "This is the only one? The brick house is built. This is the fourth brother looks like he is living a good life."
Zhang Xingming curled his lips and said nothing, and everyone got out of the car.
Uncle Fourth built this brick house and sold the original house, and owed several hundred yuan debt. Zhang Xingming remembered that in his previous life, he seemed to have worked and paid off the debt. It was 90 years. Don’t look at the hundreds of yuan. Mr. Qingge has a fixed salary because he has a urban household registration, and the conditions are the best family in the fort. Now, Uncle Fourth’s family only has a total income of several hundred yuan a year, and people still have to live.
Since the 1980s, the living conditions in rural areas have become worse and worse, and the distance has grown bigger and bigger. Until the 1990s, the annual income of a farmer was only more than one thousand yuan.
Uncle Fourth’s house did not have a courtyard wall, it was just so open, with a few stacks of firewood and a cowshed beside it.
Dad said, "This, the fourth family still raises cattle?"
Zhang Xingming said: "The team of cattle can be raised in the winter by the fourth uncle, so I can get some food."
Dad nodded, stomped his feet, and took the lead in walking into the house.
After walking a few steps, a small head was exposed behind the firewood pile, two black big eyes on the black face, and the iconic Zhang single eyelids. The Zhang Xingming family buddies are all like this. They all have single eyelids no matter how you look at it, but it is really not, big inner double, haha.
The child stared at the person who was walking over, walked in and asked in a low voice: "You guys, gaha?"
My dad turned his head and looked over and asked, "Is this your home?"
The child nodded and stood up, thin and small.
