Chapter 4 Cheap Kids

Bai Ke feels that the mother in his eyes is different from the mother in the eyes of his brothers and sisters.

When my brother and sister were still sensible, my mother was full-time.

At that time, she was a family member of the army and did not need to go to work.

Not long after he was born, his father was demobilized, and his mother became a part-time worker.

People often say that mother's taste is good, but white customers rarely feel it.

From childhood to adulthood, Bai Ke rarely saw his mother cooking.

When my father was alive, he was busy in front of the stove alone from morning to night.

Of course, the white customer's brothers and sisters will help pull the bellows, or wash the vegetables or something.

After my father died, it was my brothers and sisters who took over the cooking.

However, although the mother never cooks, most of the clothes worn by the four Baike brothers were hand-sewn by their mother.

Although Qin Yongmei is a little rude and savage, her hands are very skillful.

As long as she has seen a style of clothing, she can make it at will.

When he was a child, he wore a New Fourth Army hat, an octagonal hat of the Red Army, a forward hat, a boat-shaped hat and so on.

There are too many clothes, jackets, tunics, Lenin suits, windbreakers, suits, various styles of clothes, Qin Yongmei uses her children to practice her hands.

Now that the weather is getting colder and colder, Qin Yongmei began to sew cotton clothes and pants for the whole family.

When Bai Ke got up in the middle of the night to pee, Qin Yongmei was still busy, constantly stepping on the sewing machine.

Bai Ke and the eldest brother, the second brother, the elder sister, as well as Bai Ce and Qin Yongmei.

Winter clothing for this family is definitely a lot of work.

When he was on the kang, Bai Ke secretly took a look at his mother.

Qin Yongmei is very beautiful, with a height of one meter six or five, very white skin, and a pointed chin.

People say she's a three-haired man.

In the last life, Bai Ke had seen his grandfather.

Grandpa's skin is also very white, not the kind of white of yellow people, but the kind of white of white people.

Some are rough, with enlarged pores and redness when exposed to the sun.

And he had a very tall nose, green eyes, and yellow and fine hairs on his arms.

The years when my grandfather was born were when Lao Maozi was ravaging the Northeast.

In the countryside of the Northeast, there are often children with unknown faces like grandpa.

Because my grandfather is the only child in the family, the whole family will turn a blind eye.

With the sound of sewing machines, Bai Ke's last thought before falling asleep was the house.

Bai Ce refused to buy a house, preferring to take his whole family to huddle in a one-and-a-half-room room.

The main reason is that the vast majority of units at that time had such a provision: if the employees have their own housing, the units will no longer be divided.

In addition to this, it is also related to conservative ideas.

Just as everyone knows that demobilization can get compensation against the sky, but they would rather choose to change jobs.

The things that the state arranges are always high.

Since the house is arranged by the state and the unit, the common people can't accept the fact that they buy a house by themselves.

In their opinion, only bicycles, watches, and sewing machines need to be bought.

The difficulty of convincing the parents of the white guest can be imagined.

Three or four days after returning from rebirth, Bai Ke began to feel full of powerlessness.

When it comes to buying a house, it is difficult to convince parents for a while.

Bai Ke wanted to convince his parents to change jobs.

When Qin Yongmei transferred the whole family, she had a lot to do with it.

It was Qin Yongmei's third brother who found a local deputy county magistrate surnamed Zhang.

The deputy county magistrate asked Bai Ce and Qin Yongmei to choose their own units.

Except for units such as the public procuratorate, procuratorate, and law that require a cadre establishment to enter, most of the other units can be selected at will.

In the end, Bai Ce chose the Material Bureau, and Qin Yongmei chose the garment factory.

Years later, it turned out that none of them had made a wise choice.

Bai Ce was squeezed out in the Material Bureau, and it was useless to work instead of working, and he couldn't even get a better position.

The dignified regimental staff officer was finally assigned to the seaside wilderness to look at the warehouse.

Although Qin Yongmei chose the job she liked, the garment factory was too dusty, and more than ten years later, she suffered from tracheitis.

In fact, Bai Ce could have been a middle school teacher.

With his knowledge, he is absolutely comfortable as a teacher in a secondary school.

Instead of sweeping the floor in a deserted warehouse.

Of course, Bai Ce's choice of the Materials Bureau has his own considerations.

The first is to worry about the sharing room, and the second is to consider the work of the children.

The Bureau of Materials itself allocates building materials, so it is easiest to solve housing.

Moreover, the Materials Bureau has a store for educated youth, which can solve the employment problem of employees' children.

After talking about buying a house every once in a while, Bai Ke began to talk to his father about changing jobs again.

"Dad, you are more knowledgeable than our teacher. ”

Bai Ce was a little proud: "Of course, your father and I have gone to private school, entered a foreign school, and went to a military school." As for your teachers, I guess it will be high Chinese. ”

"Yes, with a level of education like Dad, at least he can teach middle school. ”

Bai Ce sighed: "Originally, I also wanted to be a teacher. But the school has to wait for a long time to divide the house, and it is not easy for your brothers to work in the future. ”

"I heard from my brother that No. 17 Middle School can solve the house, and they have a school-run factory, so the teacher's children can go to work. ”

"Really, Seventeen Middle School seems to be very remote. ”

"It's very remote, but it's better than you going to the West Sea to see the warehouse. ”

Bai Ce was taken aback: "Who said I would go to see the warehouse?"

"This," Bai Ke was speechless for a while, so he had to make it up, "I went to Jiang Hongwei's house to play and eavesdropped on what his father told others." ”

Bai Ce's face suddenly turned ugly.

Coincidentally, after Bai Ce was transferred to the Material Bureau, he actually met one of his old comrades-in-arms, Jiang Yongjun.

Jiang Yongjun's youngest son, Jiang Hongwei and Bai Ke, are in the same class again.

At the beginning, when Bai Ce was serving as a company instructor in the army, Jiang Yongjun was still a cooking squad leader.

When Bai Ce became a staff officer of the regiment, Jiang Yongjun became the chief of affairs.

In 65, when he was training in the Great Northern Wilderness, Jiang Yongjun should have accompanied the old head of the palace.

As a result, he was afraid of the cold, so he jumped in the car and ran away first.

Afterwards, Bai Ce reprimanded him severely.

But feng shui took turns, and after Bai Ce was demobilized, Jiang Yongjun slowly stayed in the army, and finally transferred to the local government as a regimental cadre.

However, he changed jobs and continued to retain the cadre establishment when he arrived in the localities.

However, Bai Ce lost the establishment of cadres and could only be Jiang Yongjun's subordinate.

Whether Jiang Yongjun will wear small shoes for Bai Ce is not certain.

But he knew about the situation of the troops and knew that Bai Ce had taken a large amount of resettlement money.

And his own transfer fee is not even a fraction of Bai Ce's.

If Bai Ce's work situation was better, he would definitely be unbalanced in his heart.

In public or private, he will not treat his old comrades-in-arms well.

After Bai Ke revealed the future situation to Bai Ce, he could only wait for Bai Ce to make up his mind.

But Bai Ke understands his father, and his father is good everywhere, but he is too indecisive in doing things.

In contrast, Qin Yongmei is the one who is resolute and decisive.

If Bai Ke convinces Qin Yongmei, Bai Ce will make up his mind.

But Bai Ke's relationship with his mother in his last life has not been very good, and he even resents his mother.

When I came back in this life, I was a little concerned to see my mother.

But Bai Ke made up his mind that he would have a good relationship with his mother in this life no matter what.

Qin Yongmei is such a person, if you are hard with her, she is more steel than you, and if you are soft with her, she is softer than you.

What's more, in the vast majority of families, parents love the youngest child more.

Qin Yongmei is a short-tempered person.

When Bai Ce was outside, she was alone at home with the children, and she was angry with the children.

Take the boss Bai Zong to practice first.

Once, Bai Zong, who had just returned to walk, was beaten by Qin Yongmei, so he ran to hide in the bud rice field.

The family members of the military compound helped to find it for a long time before they were recovered.

Bai Zong shouted: "I want Baba, I want to find Baba." ”

The family members attacked him and scolded Qin Yongmei bitterly.

Qin Yongmei was in a hurry, jumped up and wanted to hit someone, but the family members were so frightened that they ran away.

From childhood to adulthood, the three children in front of them were all beaten.

The only girl in the family, Bai Ke's sister Bai Ning, was not spared.

Even when her two elder brothers were seventeen or eighteen years old, Qin Yongmei was still chasing after her with a broom, running from the front of the house to the back of the house.

The neighbors all shook their heads and sighed: I have never seen such a mother.

Only Baike, from childhood to adulthood, Qin Yongmei didn't talk about hands-on fighting, and even rarely reprimanded.

When he was four or five years old in the south, Bai Ke once got angry and started beating Qin Yongmei, but Qin Yongmei just smiled and hugged Bai Ke.

"Ouch! It's thundering in the sky, and God is going to be angry!"

If Bai Ke shows his soft and cute child skills, he will definitely be able to take down Qin Yongmei.

"Mom, our Northeast is so good, we eat bud rice cakes every meal. ”

"Huh?"

"Oh no, it's fish every day. ”

"Yes," Qin Yongmei smiled smugly.

Qin Yongmei looks good when she smiles, her eyes are crooked, like the moon.

"Hmph! You little Nan barbarians, you are blessed to follow Lao Tzu. ”

Bai Ce also nodded on the side: "Yes, it's good to eat more fish, fish is the best protein, which can help you grow your body and grow up." ”

In fact, the Baike brothers have eaten enough fish.

In this small northern city, there is not only a shortage of rice and white flour, but also very few vegetables.

The only thing that is not lacking is seafood.

In each store, the main vegetable every day is seafood.

Oysters bigger than goose eggs cost 5 cents a pound.

The miscellaneous fish that was just caught from the sea cost 3 cents a pound.

Sea cucumbers are not salty, they don't taste good, and they don't want to give them for nothing.

Ordinary people only love to eat fresh and delicate.

The old and thick kelp was dried, packed up, and fooled the inland.

"It's not enough to just eat fish, physical development and nutrition should be balanced......

Bai Ce looked at Bai Ke for a long time: "Ge Laozi, you took Lao Tzu's work card again and went to the Workers' Cultural Palace to read books." ”

Bai Ke smiled: "Originally, physical development requires not only fish, but also various vegetables and fruits. ”

Bai Ce nodded: "Well, you really learned something." ”

Qin Yongmei was indignant: "His grandmother has a leg, every time she comes to the store to order potatoes and cabbage, those bastards go through the back door." ”

"Yes, Mom, you can ask Grandpa Liu to transfer you to the store to work, so that our family can often get vegetables to eat." ”

"Lao Tzu doesn't want to be a salesperson, mother-in-law and mother-in-law all day long, and you have to settle accounts. ”

"The store has a special account and invoicing, and the salesperson is only responsible for weighing two catties. Besides, my mother is prone to illness when she works in a garment factory. ”

"What's the disease?"

"Garment factories are dusty and prone to tracheitis. It's even easy to get...... Lung cancer. ”

Qin Yongmei's face suddenly changed greatly.

Bai Ke knew that he had scratched his mother's weakness.
