Chapter 8: At Home

Tanaka returned home at noon, the home was deserted, and his parents ate at the unit at noon and would not come back. He looked through the kitchen cabinet, and there was only a plate of stir-fried greens at the bottom and a plate of pickles, but no staples. He knew that his parents had always been very frugal and worked hard to save money for him to go to college, and he remembered that he was ignorant in his previous life, spent his parents' hard-earned money ignorantly, and lived four years of college life without heart and lungs, and his heart was sour. I can't help but secretly make up my mind that in this life, he will be reborn and come back, and with stronger abilities, he must share more worries for his parents and let them live a comfortable and happy life.

In a blink of an eye, I thought that since I was in high school, I have been getting together with my parents less and leaving more, and in the past few days after the college entrance examination, I have not stayed at home, and I will go to the capital in a few days. He knows that although his parents don't say it, they have always cherished every day with him.

He walked into the yard, in the small vegetable garden in the yard, peppers and cucumbers grew lushly, and the monitoring of the noon sun shone almost vertically, standing in the sun, quite a little strange. This is my home! From childhood to high school, this sense of strangeness became stronger and stronger. Recalling his previous life, when he was a sophomore, the family built a new house and demolished the old house. Now that he has been reborn, he has found that he has always retained a deep attachment to the old house in his heart.

The old house was built by my grandfather when he was young, and by this time it had gone through nearly fifty years of ups and downs, and many of the items in the house were very old, and Tagawa even suspected that some of the items in the house were more than 100 years old. There are almost no old houses like mine in the village, and with the improvement of people's living standards, most of the families have demolished the old houses and built spacious and bright new homes. Tagawa knew that his parents had postponed the rebuilding of the new house for the sake of their sibling's schooling.

A string of ringing rings in his stomach interrupted Tagawa's thoughts, and he ordered himself a bowl of somen noodles, filling his stomach in protest indiscriminately, thinking about what he was going to do before leaving home, and drawing up a rough plan.

In the afternoon, Tagawa went to buy some meat and made a hearty dinner for his parents, who returned late. In the middle, I went to the village committee and called Zhou Jiahui, asking him to help contact him, install a phone for his home, and also write down the phone number of the village committee to facilitate future contact. Now it is very troublesome to install a phone, the initial installation fee is more than 3,000 yuan, and you have to queue up, and sometimes you can't install it for several months. Unexpectedly, Zhou Jiahui said that he was not familiar with the people in the telephone bureau, and suggested that he go to Li Tao, and reminded Tian Chuan that Li Tao's family had a great influence in the capital, and it would be much more convenient to develop in the capital in the future if he was closer.

Tian Chuan then called Li Tao again, and the call went to Li Tao's office, and Li Tao answered the phone to complain, saying that Tian Chuan only cared about walking around with Zhou Jiahui, but he kept ignoring him. Tian Chuan heard the intimacy in his words, so he also joked with him: "You are a big leader, busy with official business, how can you be like us two idle people in society, we get together to discuss how to defraud the people of their hard-earned money, how dare you alarm Secretary Li." ”

Li Tao opened his mouth and scolded: "Tian Chuan, you little rabbit cub, dare to arrange you Brother Li and me." I know there must be something wrong with your kid calling me, let's say, what's the matter?" Tian Chuan said that he wanted to install the phone, and said: "I don't need a discount or anything, as long as it can be faster." I'm going to the capital in a few days, and I hope to be able to pack it before I go to Beijing. Li Tao agreed to install the phone, and didn't ask him why he was in a hurry to go to Beijing, but only said that if there was anything in the capital that could find him, there would be some face in general matters. Tian Chuan said that he would invite him to dinner in Yongyang on the 19th, and Li Tao agreed.

As soon as Tian Chuan arrived home after buying meat and vegetables, the fifth grandfather in charge of the telephone in the village came to his house and told him that the telephone bureau had called, saying that he would come to his house tomorrow to install a telephone, tell him not to go out, and prepare 3,300 yuan. Tian Chuan agreed, called out to the fifth grandfather, took out two bottles of wine and gave him two bottles of wine, thanking him for taking care of the family all the time. The fifth grandfather, Katsu Tanaka, is a distant family of Tagawa, who has already come out of the five suits, served as a soldier before and after liberation, and was injured in the Korean battlefield, and is considered a disabled soldier. The old man has never been married in his life, and he has been doing some things such as guarding the phone in the village committee, so he takes the village committee as his home and has a good reputation in the village.

Tagawa put down what he had bought, drove to the town's savings office, and withdrew 10,000 yuan in cash. There have been a lot of things lately, so you should bring more cash for emergencies. Back in the village, Tian Chuan first went to his sister's house, took his sister and little niece Weiwei home, and went home to cook together. While cooking, Tagawa first told his sister about installing the phone, and prepared to have dinner together in the evening.

After dinner, Tian Chuan told his parents about installing a phone and buying some electrical appliances in Yongyang, which really made his parents complain for a while, saying that he spent money indiscriminately. Tagawa explained that he has now started some entrepreneurial things, and there are many things that need to be contacted, and it is too inconvenient to have no phone. I helped Zhou Jiahui design the new wine basically completed, and he has earned 200,000 yuan, and he has money in his hands, so it is reasonable to improve the living conditions of his family. The parents were amazed to hear that their son was far more capable than they imagined, and in just a few days, he earned more money than they had saved.

Tian Chuan said that he was going to Beijing on the 19th, and he told his parents that there was a new agricultural machinery development, and he had been contacted in the early stage, just waiting for him to go to Beijing to complete the design and trial production. His parents have begun to be immune to his ability to toss, and they only tell him to do things steadily and not delay his studies.

Early the next morning, people from the telephone bureau came to the door, and two engineering vehicles, more than 10 people, ran the line, installed the machine, and tested the machine, and completed the work in less than two hours. Tian Chuan happily paid the money and paid some phone bills in advance. When the installation personnel left, Tian Chuan each gave two people to pack Yuxi cigarettes, which made the deputy directors who led the team very satisfied, and said that Tian Chuan was generous and would become a great tool in the future.

After tidying up inside and outside the house, Tagawa drove out, visited all his main relatives, and explained that he had gone to Beijing ahead of schedule. According to the village custom, when the admission notice comes down, the family will invite relatives to a meal of wine to congratulate, and the relatives will also send red envelopes to express their intention to help students. Tian Chuan postponed the banquet until after the Spring Festival, and then it would be lively with the Spring Festival.

On the third day, Tagawa didn't go out, and cleaned up the house and yard at home alone. Near noon, the truck delivering household appliances arrived, following yesterday's installation of telephones, another sensation, one after another sensation, asked whether Tian Chuan's family was rich, another car, another color TV refrigerator air conditioner, and another telephone, Tian Chuan did not hide it, said that he helped people make some money by doing product design. Now I'm going to college to help my parents improve their living conditions.

When the empty debugging machine was installed, I found a serious problem, that is, the insurance at home was 10A, and the refrigerator could barely cope with it when it was started, but the air conditioner could not work. Connecting the wires directly from the top of the fuse box, the test unit of the air conditioner was finally completed, and Tagawa found that the wires in the house were all aluminum core wires, and they had to be replaced all. 、

Tagawa called the village electrician, and it took him a whole afternoon, and Tagawa helped by his side to complete the replacement of all the wires in the house. Tian Chuan went to the town's power supply station and spent more than 1,000 yuan to buy a voltage regulator to meet the needs of electricity at home.

The last day before leaving home was the 19th, and Tian Chuan had already told his parents to leave today, go to Yongyang for one night, find Zhou Jiahui to get a driver's license and money, and then go directly to Beijing. But I didn't expect that at about 10 o'clock, several junior high school classmates came to the door. When he was in junior high school, Tian Chuan and the four classmates in the class were very close, and all five of them were the top students in the class, but only Tian Chuan was admitted to the county No. 1 middle school. When I was in high school, I was nervous about studying and didn't have much contact, but at this time, the college entrance examination was over, and several people made an appointment to come to Tian Chuan.

Tian Chuan had already told Zhou Jiahui to go to Yongyang City today, then chatted with everyone for a while, thought about it, or picked up the phone to call Zhou Jiahui, saying that he would reunite with his classmates and go to Yongyang a day later, Zhou Jiahui said on the phone: "As long as you are not in a hurry, I am not in a hurry, aren't you worried that I hacked your more than one million?" The World Cup final ended yesterday, and Tian Chuan's 200,000 gambles have already become 1.75 million. Tian Chuan laughed: "Big brother, you want to hack my money, I can't sell the imperial style again." Zhou Jiahui immediately surrendered: "Where are you now? I'll send you the money now." Then he said helplessly: "Your kid is really accurate, if you buy the score for 200,000, it will be 3 million now." I lost more than 100,000 yuan, and my heart was unbalanced. After a pause, he said, "Why don't you come to Yongyang, my brother will eat and live." Tian Chuan thought about it, it was not bad to go to Yongyang, but everyone was not familiar with Zhou Jiahui, so they didn't pull them together, and only asked Zhu Guoming to help send a few classmates home in the afternoon.

After making the call, Tian Chuan said to a few classmates: "It's not interesting for us to sit at home, why don't we go to Yongyang for a meal, I just want to go to Yongyang to return the car, and I will find a car to send you back in the afternoon, how about it?"

There were five people, including Rendagawa, who got together, and they happened to be in a car. At noon, Tian Chuan booked a table at the Yongyang Hotel and chatted happily with several classmates. Among the people present, Liu Zhao reported to the Tianjin City College of Traditional Chinese Medicine and planned to inherit his father's business. Wang Liqiang studied liberal arts and applied for the Youth Political College, which is considered a fierce man. Zhao Hongjun reported to the National Agricultural University, and it is likely that he will become Tian Chuan's classmate again. The only girl, Shen Fenglian, applied for the Tianjin Agricultural University. When everyone heard that Tian Chuan reported to the Agricultural University with an evaluation score of more than 660 points, they couldn't help but be surprised. Tian Chuan said that he may have a peasant complex, and he is determined to develop in agriculture in the future, leaving the four speechless.

At this time, Tian Chuan said: "What do you think about the future of the Agricultural University, which both the Red Army and Fenglian have reported?" Both said that they had no choice but to apply for the Agricultural University because of their low scores. Tian Chuan said: "Anyway, I am ready to develop in agriculture, if you have any ideas, let's communicate often." In the future, if there is an opportunity, we will work together to support development. He said to the other two, "We are both going to school in the Beijing-Tianjin area, and we will keep in touch with each other in the future." Everyone agreed. Everyone drank a lot of wine, but Shen Fenglian, as a girl, was a real woman, and she drank very boldly. Mixed with the other four, like a buddy-like existence, everyone is used to it, and they don't think it's different.

After the meal, Tagawa said that he was going to Beijing tomorrow, and he still had some things to deal with today, so he wouldn't go home with them. has also contacted Zhou Jiahui's driver Zhu Guoming in advance and asked Zhu Guoming to send the four of them home. Zhu Guoming first sent Tian Chuan to Zhou Jiahui's house, and then came back to send the four of them. The four of them didn't think that there would be a full-time driver to see them off, and they couldn't let go of their words, Tian Chuan gave Zhu Guoming a cigarette, said a few polite words, and then said goodbye to his classmates.
