685 Good News
This Laba was already lively, and with the good news of Uncle Lu, it was even more joyful. Grandma Lu can't wait to take out everything she can eat at home.
The thirteenth brigade has only three students who have been admitted to university this year. In addition to Uncle Lu, there are two other educated youths, but their scores are not as high as Uncle Lu's, and they are only admitted to ordinary local colleges.
Uncle Lu's outstanding achievements are not only in the commune, but also in the county. This gave the thirteenth team a big face.
Those who looked down on him before, now envy him.
As for the few members who were vying to be the captain, they took turns to congratulate them with egg noodles, and they almost broke the threshold of the Lu family. There is no one to canvass for this one.
"Cousin and grandmother, you have come to say hello to your cousin!"
The three sons of Lu Tiemin's family carried a jar of home-brewed sorghum wine and the upper half of the hoof cut off from the wild boar leg, and came to the door with a smile to congratulate them.
"You guys just come, what are you doing here! Aren't you going to show Ah Da Xiang? Don't you be in a hurry about meat now? Eat out seven loads of grain in vain, your father's wooden fish head......
The three brothers looked at each other in embarrassment.
"Cousin and grandmother, the wild boar leg that Li Mingliang took has been returned. It's just that fresh meat has become bacon......" Lu Qingmiao said.
His two honest elder brothers also nodded: "Yes, the county sent officials to follow the public security comrades to deal with the things found by the Li family, and the ones that belonged to them were returned." The rest is said to be all down before the end of the year. ”
Yo, that's a great thing!
There are a lot of good things that the Li family has found, even if they get tobacco and alcohol, they don't eat it themselves, and take it to the county to exchange it for food and meat, which is enough for the members of the 13th Brigade to have a good year.
Grandma Lu said happily: "Okay! I will accept the amount, you will all stay here to eat at noon, and call your father after a while." ”
The adults were busy boiling porridge and making big meat dishes, and the children dragged the three brothers of the Lu family to play games in the yard. Who told them to be honest, the kind that made people want to bully.
Ying Fang can hum passionate revolutionary songs when she sees Grandma Lu burning the fire, Uncle Lu chops a pile of firewood, and can also shout trumpets, and Uncle Lu is even more red. To paraphrase the words of the little aunt: The flowers and candles in the cave room are not as good as his mental outlook at the moment.
That's it!
Grandma Lu's family is fine, and she also has a concern.
After Laba, Yingfang's family set off for Ninghe.
Grandma Lu's eyes were red, and she was really reluctant to let them go.
But I knew in my heart that this was not their home, and it was not easy to take out ten days and a half to come to see them on a cold day when the north wind was howling.
So he suppressed the tears that came out of his eyes, and instructed Uncle Lu to carry the return gifts prepared in advance one by one to the ox cart.
"Knowing that there is no shortage of meat over there, grandma doesn't have an axe to make meat for you, these are snacks made of rice and noodles, baby eggs like to eat, and your grandfather at home can also eat it, soft and glutinous and easy to restrain it.
These mille-feuille shoes were made by your aunt who got up early in the morning and touched the dark, and the shoe size was put on your feet, one person and one pair, and no one was left behind.
This is the clothes made by your aunt for the triplets, but I didn't expect Yangyang to be so tall at the time, and you changed it temporarily after you came, there are a few stitches that are a little obvious, she feels embarrassed and doesn't want to take it out, it's okay, the newly bought material is sewn out with a needle, how can you dislike it because of a few stitches?
These briquette tickets are prepared by your two uncles, and there are some specialties here, which can be shared with the neighbors to taste if you can't finish eating...... It's all gone, and watch out on the train. When I got home, I sent a telegram to ......"
Grandma Lu held Yingfang's hand and told constantly.
Ying Fang nodded vigorously with tears: "Grandma, when grandpa is well, I will pick you up and live at my house for a while." In the past few years, our side has changed a lot, and you must like it. ”
"Okay, good, if your grandfather can really get better, he can go anywhere. Grandma Lu didn't say a word.
As everyone knows, one day half a year later, Grandpa Lu really spoke, and he could sit up and even walk a few steps on his own without help, which made Grandma Lu excited and called her granddaughter a miracle doctor.
But I don't know at this time, just when Yingfang comforts her.
"Mother, will we come back next year?"
The ox cart clattered towards the county railway station, nuan nuan in her mother's arms, a little reluctant.
"Come when you have time, of course. Yingfang touched her head and said, "When your grandfather is well, take them to live in our house for a while." ”
"It's better to pick the summer vacation so that my brothers and sisters can come together. ”
Nuan Nuan and Uncle Lu's daughter are very compatible, but unfortunately the school has not been closed yet, so they can't get along for a few days. I thought about how good it would be if we could play together during the summer vacation, and it would be fifty or sixty days.
Ying Fangting gave her daughter face: "Okay, just pick up them during the summer vacation." ”
Nuan Nuan cheered, climbed forward and talked to Niu Niu.
"Niu Niu, I'm going home. I'll be back to see you later, though. ”
"Moo-"
Uncle Lu was much calmer this time, happily watching the little girl shake her head and talk to Da Niu, who also gave face, and "mooed" from time to time.
Uncle Lu was happy, and shook the empty whip to urge it to run. Don't really walk in a wheat field, at this rate, it's dark at the train station.
Uncle Lu sent them to the train station, and was urged back by Yingfang.
In winter, it gets dark quickly, and depending on the sky, it will snow heavily. The four adults on his side, Yang Yang has great strength, and he can also help carry some luggage.
Xu is almost the New Year, there are a lot of people in the train station, some go back to their hometown to visit relatives, some go to the army to join the army, Yingfang's family of seven people have a large bag of luggage, which is really not eye-catching.
The train whined into the station, and the platform suddenly became crowded.
The sleeper tickets that Yingfang's family bought as usual are a little more expensive, but they have fixed bunks, so they don't need to compete with a large number of people to occupy the advantageous terrain.
In addition, there were not so many people in front of the sleeper car, and I quickly got on the train.
Find the carriage, put the luggage in order, watch the children don't run around, wait for the train to whine again, the sound of the wheel axle hitting the rails, carrying a car of passengers in the same direction, slowly driving in the direction of home.
It's relatively calm to go back, and there are no accidents in the car.
In short, until Ninghe Station, the family was not separated.
After getting off the bus, Yingfang packed a bag of Coal City specialties alone and went to visit the stationmaster and Sister Lu.
Sister Lu stuffed her with a few industrial coupons and asked her if the admission notice had come.
"No, this is not just coming back from grandma's house. ”
"Then go home quickly, I don't know what is waiting for you at the table at home. I know a few of my colleagues' children, and they all received them. However, there is an early and late start of school, and the early ones will report after the New Year, and the latest is that they will not start until the second half of the year......"
When Sister Lu said this, Yingfang's heart became active again.
She knows how well she did in the exam, but she has no bottom which school she got into.
Jiang Xinrou was even more nervous than her, and on the way home, she begged her ancestors for their blessings, it was best to be admitted to the school in Kyoto, it didn't matter which one, as long as it was Kyoto. So they can take the triplets with them.
Xiao Sanye couldn't stand it, and scolded her: "If the ancestors can bless it, can they still cause our family to be separated for more than ten years?"
Jiang Xinrou was silent.
Xiang Gang saw that the situation was wrong, so he was afraid that his father-in-law and mother-in-law would quarrel, so he hurriedly said: "There are near conveniences, and far benefits are far away, even if it's not Kyoto, it doesn't matter, it's a big deal, let's rent a house." The family can always meet. ”
After a pause, he said: "Actually, after this year's military parade, all military regions have the idea of establishing a special contingent. Talk to me from above, and once a similar team is established, they want me to pass on my experience. I pondered waiting for Xiaofang's school to be implemented. ”
"That's good. Xiao Sanye agreed.
Jiang Xinrou also said that it was very good.
In just a few words, a flash of gunpowder will be wiped out.
Ying Fang breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at the man with a smile, and secretly gave a thumbs up.
Xiang Gang winked at her.
But he said it was true.
The boss did intend to transfer him to other military regions to teach guidance, but the time has not yet been set. When I return from the border in the next year, I guess I will give clear instructions.
took the bus to Jiangbei, and as soon as I got off the bus, I met an acquaintance, Widow Li from Jiangkoubu.
"Yingfang is back, the admission letter arrived a few days after you left, and the secretary sent you home. Go home and see which university you're in. "Widow Li is even more excited than Yingfang.
"Aunt Li, are there many people in our brigade?" asked Yingfang.
"You are currently receiving notices from you, your cousin, and Ah Jiu's daughter-in-law and Dazhu's daughter-in-law. There are also two educated youths in our brigade who have been admitted, but Liu Jihong and Luo Yanhong, who previously grabbed your place, have not been admitted, and they haven't received the notice until now......"
Widow Li has changed a lot in recent years, from staying at home to integrating into the group, coupled with the straightforward veterans chasing her, her personality has become much more cheerful. Of course, the main reason is that the family is financially well-off, and the so-called money in hand is not panicked. The character is not as cowardly and afraid as before.
Yingfang thanked her with a smile, and invited Cangzhu to come to the house to play in time, saying that she had brought a lot of specialties from the coal city, and sent them back to try them, and then ran home non-stop.
The old man was sitting under the eaves basking in the sun, and when he saw them coming back, he stood up happily and said, "I'm anxious to know which school to be admitted to, right?"
"Old man, don't sell it, have you seen it?
"That's for Xiaofang, what am I doing with it, I'm just waiting for you to come back and see it, surprises always have to be shared with everyone." ”
Xiao Sanye rolled his eyes when he heard this, and immediately took the admission letter stamped with the Kyoto postmark from the desk in the old man's room, and handed it to his daughter while laughing: "It's gone! The school in Kyoto is gone!"
"Really?" Jiang Xinrou's eyes widened in surprise.
