On the last Sunday of June, Zhao Chunhua of the Primary School Affiliated to the Beileng Electromechanical Plant was not idle. At six o'clock in the morning, Zhao Chunhua, who had made breakfast for the family, rode a bicycle and went to the vicinity of Dongjiaomin Lane, seven or eight kilometers away from her home, to tutor two sophomores in high school.

A class lasts an hour, two dollars and five cents. Three servings in the morning, after the counseling is more than one o'clock, and there is no rest. In order to solve the problem of lunch, in the afternoon, I went to my aunt's house in Liulichang to tutor my cousin who was in her second year of high school for free.

In order to be able to save money for a meal outside at noon.

No way, everything is going up in price now. A boxed lunch has risen to three yuan, even if it is a bowl of millet porridge with thin soup and two green onion cakes, it will cost two pieces. However, the salary of the primary school affiliated to Beilang has not been paid for three months.

In fact, she is better, as a subsidiary unit of the Beileng Plant, the factory is quite polite to the employees of schools and hospitals. Her husband, who also works as a fitter at the Beileng Electromechanical Factory, has been out of work since the end of last year.

This year, the capital is exceptionally dry, and there has not been a serious heavy rain since the beginning of spring. In June, there was not even a single cloud around the sun, and a million rays of sunlight were like pepper water splashing on people's backs, and the sweat on their foreheads seeped into their eyes, as if a layer of salt had been smeared on a wound.

Listening to the chaotic sound of the bicycle chain, Zhao Chunhua's consciousness was a little erratic.

In 1982, Zhao Chunhua, who graduated from high school, entered the Beileng Factory. At that time, Beileng was one of the four state-owned refrigeration factories in China, which existed before the liberation, and was like a car crane before the founding of the People's Republic of China. After the liberation, it specialized in the production of large air conditioners and chillers.

At that time, the state-owned factories were the first choice for young people to find employment, and it was not an exaggeration to say that the factory recruitment was the same as the imperial examination in feudal society. Zhao Chunhua took the third place in the exam among more than 140 people, and almost didn't come in, and in the end she was squeezed in because she was the only lesbian in the top three, plus she was handsome, and she had a gender advantage and image plus.

This is not an exaggeration.

In the third decade of her life, this has always been the most worthy thing for Zhao Chunhua to show off.

A male classmate who took the exam with Zhao Chunhua and won the second place was because he was too thin, less than 100 pounds, and he could not enter a large heavy industry factory and could only obey the distribution and was accepted by the Commercial Bureau.

When I first entered the factory, Mo said that the treatment of people was like a dream, and even the chickens in Zhao Chunhua's house enjoyed benefits - chicken feed was leftovers from the factory canteen.

How good was that time?

The life of a large family, from the cradle to the grave, eating, drinking, and the Lasa factory are all inclusive. At that time, I had already become a fourth-level fitter in the field, and my husband with two apprentices didn't need to get up three times a day, and I ate all in the canteen. Even the supper was brought back from the factory!

"Xiao Zhao, do it well, do it with peace of mind! From now on, the factory will be responsible for the affairs of your parents and children! Get married, have a house to live in, give birth to a child for free, and see a doctor for the elderly at home for free! The factory is responsible for you, and you must also give full play to the responsibility of being a master."

The bicycle chain under his feet became heavier and heavier, and in a trance, the leader's admonition to himself on the first day of entering the factory seemed to echo in his ears again.

"Didi!"

Just when Zhao Chunhua was in a trance, a rapid car horn exploded in his ears.

"Look at it! I don't pull over on a bicycle, why are you looking for it?" almost rolled down the window of his red car, and a young man with curly hair with brown toad glasses shook it over.

Looking at the young man and the co-pilot who were dressed fashionably and frowned with a dissatisfied face, Zhao Chunhua endured her anger and pushed the bicycle to the side.

Times are changing.

Just as since the 90s, a large number of small private enterprises in the south have risen, and the small air-conditioning freezers produced are cheap and delicate, and the North Cold Plant has changed from working overtime all year round to taking two months off in the last two months, and her husband has to give gifts to the team leader in the shift, so he can only take the basic salary, and in the end the basic salary cannot be opened.

The workers are no longer the masters of the country.

It's past four o'clock in the afternoon.

At the aunt's house, who was stingy until noon, she only left two steamed buns and a bowl of bean juice left over from the morning, and finally returned home with a tired Zhao Chunhua.

In the old staff building, her husband Liu Dagen's bicycle is not there. Without thinking about it, Zhao Chunhua knew that her husband must have gone to a nearby construction site to do odd jobs.

Now there are many people in the staff building like this, from Monday to Friday, even if there is no shift in the factory, they dare not go out. Although the efficiency of the factory is not good now, there are regulations above that it is strictly forbidden for employees to go outside to work part-time to generate income.

At the beginning of spring, an old worker in the factory, who was still a party member, found a taxi company and started to open a business because the factory had a three-day holiday. Because the taxi has to pay a share of the money, and if you meet the factory to work, the money has to be upside down, so the old worker simply went to drive the car, because of this, the factory party committee directly opened the old worker who has dedicated himself to the factory for more than 20 years - the post, the title and the party membership.

Since then, the gentlemen have been able to go out on Saturdays and Sundays, when the factory will never be scheduled. The time is not continuous, it is all odd jobs, but it is not as much as Zhao Chunhua.

After a day of face-to-face tutoring, riding a bicycle to travel half of the capital, Zhao Chunhua only felt that her legs were filled with lead.

I thought about going to bed and lying down for a while when I entered the door, but when she opened the door with the key, she was stunned.

I saw my son, who had just turned four years old this year, squatting at the door with his bare buttocks. The little one may have been waiting for a long, long time, and his big head resting on his lotus-like arm was already dozing.

Next to his small body was the red enamel washbasin that had been knocked off the paint at home, and inside it was a large basin full of water!

Hearing the sound of footsteps, the little one raised his head like a rabbit, and when he saw his mother returning, he got up from the ground with a flutter.

"Xiu'er, my mother is not at home, why is it still causing water damage?" Looking at the water stains all over the ground, Zhao Chunhua frowned. I just feel that there is nothing smooth in this world, and after a busy day outside, I have to clean up the mess for this little ancestor when I return home.

didn't think about it, in the face of his own questioning, the little guy wrinkled his nose and squatted down. With great difficulty, she picked up the big basin full of water and swayed it to her feet!

"Mom, wash your feet!"

Seeing his son say this in a milky voice, and then took off his shoes without saying anything, Zhao Chunhua was stunned.

In this moment, she felt that it was worth it!

The driver on the street who pointed at his nose and cursed, the girl's cold eyes of disgust and disgust, her aunt's stinginess and contempt, the difficulty of life, and the hardships of the world

At this moment, with his son's innocent and clean eyes, he flew out of the clouds!

The water was cold.

At first glance, I knew that it was released directly from the water pipe, and after a day of running, my feet were already a little swollen soaked in such water, and there was no relaxation at all. On the contrary, it is as uncomfortable as a pinprick.

But Zhao Chunhua felt that the pot of water was so warm and hot.

Watching her son rub his instep for himself like a house, Zhao Chunhua choked the tears rolling in her eyes, and touched her son's head with pity, "Our family Xiu'er has grown up and knows that she feels sorry for her mother." Tell your mother, how did you come up with the idea of washing your mother's feet?"

"Taught on TV!" the child was complimented and smiled.

"On TV?" Zhao Chunhua was puzzled, "What kind of program, also teach foot washing?"

"That's it, it's on TV. A child was very happy when she saw her mother washing her grandmother's feet and then washing her mother's feet."

"Ah, good boy, what else is being taught on TV?"

"Well, it is also said on TV that parents are the best teachers for their children. Well, well, TV also said that Songjiang Industry promotes Chinese virtues. ”

Listening to the headless and brainless Mowgli Tong Yan, Zhao Chunhua seemed to understand a little.

Hearing what her son said seemed to be an advertisement or a plot in a public service announcement, Zhao Chunhua was moved.

Yes, parents are the best teachers for their children.

How good is that?

In the past two years, the efficiency of the unit has not been good, and I have been busy tutoring and subsidizing my family everywhere, and I have neglected to lead by example!

Pulling her son's wet little hands out of the basin, Zhao Chunhua got up with slippers. Letting her son play, she picked up the basin, changed the basin of hot water in the kitchen to test the water temperature, then walked to her mother-in-law's house and pushed open the door.

"Mom, I'm back. ”

In the room, my mother-in-law, who had always been a little at odds with her, was sitting cross-legged with her back to the door, sitting on the bed listening to the radio.

"Oh, the spring flowers are back. Hearing Zhao Chunhua's greeting, the old lady didn't reply, but just responded casually, "How much did you earn today?"

"Don't talk about that, Mom, you put your foot out. I gave you hot water and you soaked your feet. ”

When the old lady, who had been listening to the radio without a ride, heard this, it was as if there was a fire under her buttocks, and she suddenly jumped three feet high from the bed. Encountering some kind of flood beast, a bone hid at the base of the wall!

It was only at this time that Zhao Chunhua saw clearly that the old lady's trouser legs were pulled up high. A pair of wrinkled feet, numb and red.

"Xiu'er, this kid doesn't know what's wrong, and since noon, he will bring water to my house and wash my feet. My grandmother couldn't wash it once, but she had to come back again every other while! She washed me seven or eight times in an afternoon! If she didn't let him wash him, she would roll on the ground and cry. Look at my feet, let this little rabbit rub the footstones and rub them off with three layers of skin! I don't dare to go down to the ground when it hurts! Now you come again!!"

"What kind of demon obstacle are you two today?
