"Dad, what's the matter?"

After serving in front of the hospital bed for a week, and because of the mourning after crying for three days, Nie Jinzhi's voice was hoarse, physically and mentally exhausted, and the whole person looked very haggard.

She had already booked a ticket for the afternoon and was about to explain something to her sister and younger brothers, so she went straight home.

As a result, before she, the eldest of the Nie family, had time to find her younger siblings for a "meeting", she was summoned by her father.

In the past, my mother was alive, and I could persuade and stop her, but now that my mother is gone, the old man can't let himself go.

When Nie Jinzhi thought of his mother, the sadness he had just suppressed came out again.

She was in a bad mood, and even her emotions were a little impatient.

Anne didn't speak, just glanced at Nie Jinzhi lightly.

Nie Jinzhi was a little uncomfortable being looked at by his father, and he felt a strange feeling in his heart.

It is said that since his father was released from prison, although he still looks as strong and domineering as before, he has no confidence.

When facing his children, he faced the older children, and he was even more guilty and empty-hearted.

At least in Nie Jinzhi's impression, in the past three or four years, his father had never straightened his waist in front of their sisters, let alone showed such a majestic look.

"Boss, I heard that you have been rated as a sixth-level worker, and your salary has also risen to seventy-eight and five?" Anne was silent for a moment before she said leisurely.

Nie Jinzhi's heart was alarmed.

Okay, why did my father suddenly mention her salary?

Could it be that the old man wants to ask her for money again?

This is a master who can squeeze oil out of the cracks of the stone, until now, Nie Jinzhi still remembers when she got married, and her father begged her in-laws for a huge bride price.

The bride price was asked for so much, but only a few quilts were married, which made Nie Jinzhi, who has always been strong, really lose someone in front of his mother-in-law's family.

Every time she thinks of this, her heart is full of complaints about her father.

Later, her father made such a mistake, which made her lose face.

Although she was not beaten back to her hometown, she was also affected to a certain extent in the factory.

The advanced of the year was not evaluated, and all kinds of activities and benefits did not have her share.

was treated so unfairly, but she didn't even dare to complain, for fear of being exposed, saying that she was dissatisfied with the country and the leadership.

Even when she returned home, her in-laws, sister-in-law, and brother-in-law, who had always looked down on her a few times, dared to throw her face!

From childhood to adulthood, Nie Jinzhi has been a strong person.

She is the eldest in the family, her parents love her the most and rely on her, and her younger sisters and brothers are even more managed and scolded by her to grow up...... How could she have been wronged like this?!

However, with the father of a bad element, she seems to be a head shorter than others, not to mention that others will treat her differently, even herself, and she has no confidence in her heart.

Such a background has always influenced her.

It wasn't until the end of the special period that her situation improved slightly.

Otherwise, with her qualifications and ability, she would have been rated as a sixth-level worker a long time ago, so why wait until this year?!

"Hmm. Nie Jinzhi was wary in his heart and responded vaguely.

"Yes, I heard that your man was also promoted and became the deputy director of the workshop?"

Anne didn't seem to see Nie Jinzhi's wolf-proof eyes, and continued to say lightly.

Nie Jinzhi was startled again, and his eyes were full of awe when he looked at Anne. Dad's news is well-informed.

My husband's promotion is only a matter of half a month, because there is no official document yet, and relatives and friends have not been notified or anything.

It's just that the people in their own family are secretly happy, and Nie Jinzhi didn't even say anything about his sisters, for fear that there would be any accidents at that time.

My father stays in the county all day, how does he, how does he know?

Wait, is my father still connected with an old acquaintance in the factory?

After all, when her father was able to send her to a textile factory as an apprentice, it was the so-called cadre-school classmate relationship.

And my father's classmate, who was just an officer of the Political Department back then, has already become the deputy factory director.

But, if my father still has a good relationship with the deputy factory director, then over the years, I haven't seen the deputy factory director take any special care of her Nie Jinzhi.

Nie Jinzhi was thinking nonsense, and his mind was also confused, but he nodded blankly, "Well, yet, I haven't officially issued the documents yet, so I didn't tell the family either." ”

Anne didn't continue the topic, but suddenly asked, "Jin Zhi, do you remember your third uncle's Jin E?"

Nie Jinzhi paused again, talking about her and her man's work, how could it be related to her relatives in her hometown again.

However, she really has an impression of Nie Jin'e mentioned by her father.

The third uncle is the grandfather's younger brother, and Nie Jin'e was born in the same year as Nie Jinzhi, only a few months apart.

Nie Jinzhi is the eldest one, four months older, and is the older sister.

The year before last, he went back to his hometown to move his grandfather's grave, and Nie Jinzhi, as the eldest in the family, also followed his parents back.

After returning to his hometown and finishing his business, Nie Jinzhi contacted the former little sisters by the way.

Among them, there is naturally Nie Jin'e, who is relatively close in blood.

As a result, Nie Jinzhi found that Jin E, who was a few months younger than her, already had white hair, a dark face, wrinkles at the corners of her eyes and mouth, and a collapsed back, looking more than ten years older than her Nie Jinzhi.

The two stand together, not like sisters, but like two generations.

They're just forty years old.

Nie Jinzhi lives like a city man in his thirties, while Nie Jin'e is like an old rural woman who has experienced vicissitudes.

"Of course I remember, the last time I went back, I also drank the full moon wine of Jin'e and her grandson. ”

Speaking of this, Nie Jinzhi was even more embarrassed, she was still older than Nie Jin'e, and everyone became a grandmother.

Nie Jin'e, like most rural girls, got married early, and married at the age of fifteen or sixteen.

If you are not old enough to get a marriage certificate, then you will not get it first, and it will be the same if you wait until you are old enough to reapply for it.

Marry early, have children early.

With a son, he repeated the life of his ancestors and fathers, and continued to farm in his hometown in the countryside.

When the son reached the age of sixteen or seventeen, he also began to marry.

Both generations got married early and had children even earlier, and Nie Jin'e just turned forty years old and became a grandmother.

Nie Jinzhi is different, she is a serious worker in the city, and if she gets married or something, of course, she must strictly follow the law.

Nie Jinzhi got married at the age of twenty-one and only had a child three years after marriage, so this year, her eldest son just entered high school.

It's still a few years before getting married and having children.

The cousins younger than her have become grandmothers, but Nie Jinzhi is not envious at all.

Because as long as he saw his cousin's old face, his hands were full of calluses, and he was forty years old, but he looked like he was fifty or sixty years old, Nie Jinzhi couldn't help but rejoice.

What is the grandson compared to these sins?

"Think Jin'e is not doing well?" Anne didn't miss the happiness on Nie Jinzhi's face and asked.

"It's hard. "I raised my son, and I had to take my grandson, and I went around the ground and the stove all day long, three hundred and sixty-five days a day, and there was no time to rest.

Isn't this kind of life hard?

"If I hadn't tossed and stayed in the village to farm honestly like Jin E's father, you would be as ...... as Jin E now."
