Chapter 387: A Change in Environment
I nodded, of course I believed, and I firmly believed that our good days were coming soon.
The days are peaceful and quiet, every day is around the pot, and the things outside the home are the same, and the cycle repeats.
The news that grandpa occasionally went back and brought back was the same, nothing special. No one in the village came to harvest the land, so everyone started planting corn and other grains again.
The year 1975 soon came, and on New Year's Day, our normally peaceful home suddenly became very lively, because at six o'clock in the morning my father-in-law came back from the provincial capital, which really gave us a big surprise!
Because he didn't say anything beforehand, he went straight home. We should hurry out.
I laughed, "I thought you were going to come back for the New Year!"
"Well, I missed my eldest grandson, so I came back first. "Mr. Zhao is still so energetic, even more energetic than when he was in the village, he brought back a lot of things, two heavy bags, I can't carry it, or my grandfather directly carried it.
"What are you doing here, so heavy?"
"You'll know if you open it in a moment. Mr. Zhao walked inside quickly: "I'll look at my eldest grandson, is he fat!"
He hugged my child, kept upside down, very happy, An An smiled very well, very likable.
I didn't have time to talk to him, so I hurried to the kitchen to work, I thought that there would be no one today, so I just made a dumpling and made a cold dish and pulled it, but since my father-in-law came back, I must prepare well.
Zhao Yunhai helped me pack my things, and I said, "Get back the fish and chickens frozen in the backyard." Oh, I didn't eat that sausage last time, take it in and stir-fry a cabbage, doesn't your dad like to eat it? ”
"Okay, I see. I'll clean up the scales, don't worry. ”
I smiled, in fact, he did the troublesome work better.
Mr. Zhao sat on the edge of the kang with the child in his arms, I took some fruits, these years, there are no good fruits to eat, that is, frozen pears, frozen persimmons, jujubes or something, Mr. Zhao while eating, while telling my grandfather about the things in the provincial capital.
"It's obvious that a lot of things have been relaxed, those people in the provincial capital can wear fancy clothes now, I heard a movie with foreign songs before, but I see that nothing has changed here for the time being. ”
"Alas, our village hasn't changed at all. However, in some villages, the fields have already begun to be divided. But didn't our village make mistakes because of the land before? In addition, the matter of Ouyang Sheng's grandson was unsuccessful twice, and now no one dares to make a fuss, and the new village party secretary just listens to the orders from above, and he doesn't care what he does, just to live well, and the villagers are so angry that they can't do it, but they can't help it. ”
Because other villages have started to package production to households this year, I see that the atmosphere of everyone's work is different from before. After all, I used to work for the brigade, and I did the same work and earned the same amount of work.
If you don't do it, I won't do it, let's go and ask for food together.
But now people in the neighboring villages are working for themselves, and if they do a good job, they will have a bumper harvest of grain, and they will be able to earn a lot of money when the time comes. One by one, they got up early and returned late, and they all turned over there.
"Now in winter, I can't see it, but there are people supporting vegetable greenhouses one after another, and some people have contracted fish ponds, and the fruit trees behind have also been contracted. The villagers are waiting for spring to start working, but the village has the final say on everything in our village, who dares to do it!" My grandfather sighed: "If Yang Yonghuai hadn't done these things, our village would definitely have a bumper harvest last year, and how good the rain was last year, but the result was delayed." Not only did I not have a bumper harvest, but I also owed a lot of debts to the team, which made me sad to watch!"
Zhao Yunhai said, "It's okay grandpa, don't be pessimistic, history is always moving forward, other villages have changed, can our village be far away, good days are coming, I am optimistic." ”
"Yes, just wait. Mr. Zhao said: "Now there are people doing business in those small corners of the province, and the things they sell are very good." No one is rushing, let alone being caught, which is a good sign!"
Zhao Yunhai said: "I just don't know when our village will get better?"
"Next year. I said, "Next year at the latest, the delivery of the package will definitely be on the right track." ”
Next year, the land policy will be restored, and all localities will be experimenting with experimental fields, and primary and secondary schools will begin to reopen. From next year, all localities are guaranteed to be thriving.
Zhao Yunhai glanced at me and said with a smile: "I believe what the little half-immortal said. ”
I smiled and slapped Zhao Yunhai: "Let's cook, don't call me a half-immortal." ”
During the meal, Mr. Zhao smelled what happened to those people.
My grandfather said, "What else can I do, just like that, eat vegetables and eat vegetables, don't think about anything else." ”
Mr. Zhao looked at us curiously, and I said it briefly.
Ouyang Sheng is just lingering now, just holding a breath, and it may be gone at any time.
Yang Yulan was sentenced to death in the first trial, but she had to report it layer by layer, Zhao Yunhai said that eighty percent could not really be sentenced to death, but it was certain that she would not be able to come out in a short time. Her mother is miserable now, and now the village is also half-dead, relying on the relief of the villagers to get a bite to eat. But because he was half paralyzed, there was no one to take care of him.
The things, land, and property in the house were all robbed by the Yang family. Now she is only in a dilapidated house, and the neighbors occasionally find time to come and deliver some food, but she can't take care of herself now, it is very dirty, and it is conceivable that if she continues, it is estimated that it will not be long.
The people in the village came to my grandfather and said that they hoped that we could take Yang Yulan's mother away and take good care of her, because we used to be a family and were scolded back by my grandfather.
I think these people are really shameless, they didn't treat my grandfather as a human being at the beginning, and then drove my grandfather's family away and instigated the villagers to bully us, does Mother Yang really not know at all?
Yang Yulan almost killed me several times, her mother has always maintained a cold and onlooker attitude, and now that she has an accident, these people say that we are a family, go and take care of him!
I resolutely refused to let my grandfather take care of this matter, and I didn't even go to see it once.
My grandfather didn't care about it, he just gave the villagers a few dozen yuan and asked them to buy her something or something.
As for Yang Yonghuai, we don't even ask. His current identity is that of an overseas Chinese who has returned from abroad, a person who has made great contributions to the local area, and he was also in the newspaper at the beginning, but he was deceived and used by others, and he is still blind and in poor health, so he was not held responsible. Now he is still in the old pension institution, being watched.
Let him have a decent old age, so that there is a fig leaf on his head, otherwise, he will be praised vigorously and regarded as a typical propagandist who will become a labor prisoner, and no one can hang on his face.
Mr. Zhao said: "Well, forget it, I'm already blind anyway." I can't be a moth anymore. ”
My grandfather took the wine glass and drank a little wine slowly: "I can't say that, he still has people around him to help do bad things, I don't know why, probably rich? Anyway, if I can't do it in the future, I will definitely take this guy away, I can't let this beast hurt my granddaughter." ”
I quickly pushed his arm: "Grandpa, don't say such unlucky words. You will live a hundred years. ”
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this, eat. My grandfather smiled and served Mr. Zhao with vegetables: "How long can I stay at home?"
"In a week, I'm going back. ”
"It's good to go back, the provincial city is warmer than ours. ”
We chatted together, and soon after eating, we decided to go out to take pictures, since the birth of the child to the present, there is no family photo, plus the nearby photo studio, in front of our house made a super large ice sculpture building, like a castle, there are steps and pagodas, all hung with decorations.
It is said that it is popular from the provincial capital, so it attracts many people to take pictures, and it is smooth and dazzling when it is lit up at night. However, it was too cold at night, and I was worried that the baby would catch a cold, so I recommended going during the day.
When Mr. Zhao heard this, he smiled and said, "Is it? There is such a thing now? It's really the market that has been invigorated, let's take a big photo too." When the time comes, hang it on the wall and make a souvenir for the baby in the future. Look at what life was like as a child. ”
