On the second day of the Lunar New Year, I went to my grandfather's house to pay New Year's greetings, and my grandfather had six children, three sisters in the front, Li's mother was the second, and three boys were born in succession.

Uncle Chen Qianyu, second uncle Chen Jinyu, third uncle Chen Huiyu, and the three uncles also went to their aunt's house to pay New Year's greetings on the second day of the new year.

When Li Shiyu arrived at his grandfather's house, his eldest uncle had already arrived, and his uncle's house was very close to his grandfather's house, only two or three miles away at most, so he came the earliest.

Father Li first greeted his grandparents and grandmothers, and then greeted his eldest uncle: "Brother Shun, it's early." ”

The eldest uncle, Ning Shunqing, sat next to the firewood boiling and roasted the fire, and when he saw Father Li coming to say hello, he didn't get up, but just said, "Well, I've been here for a while." ”

Li Shiyu was beside him, and when he saw that Li's father smiled disappreciatively, he walked out and followed out.

Father Li didn't notice Li Shiyu, went out, his face was not very good, he stood on the ridge in front of the house, smoked a cigarette, and when he came back, his face returned to normal.

It didn't take long for the little uncle Xie Xinxi's family to come, Xinxi's family is a public teacher in the suburbs of the county, and the conditions are relatively good, Li Shiyu saw the eldest uncle stand up the moment he saw the little uncle, and shouted enthusiastically: "Teacher Xie, come here to roast the fire." ”

The little uncle was about to greet Father Li, and when he heard the shout of the eldest uncle, he only nodded to Father Li, and then replied, "Brother Shun, it's so early." ”

Different people say the same thing and get completely different answers.

Ning Shunqing said: "Come early and wait for you to play cards, if you don't win dozens of yuan this year, I won't let you go home." ”

Xie Xinxi laughed after hearing this: "Last year, you lost the most, and even Brother Xiang won more than ten yuan." Xie Xinxi saw Father Li on the side, and pulled Father Li into the topic, so as not to be snubbed.

Ning Shunqing said: "I'll start work after dinner, who is afraid of whom." ”

。。。。。。

In the third year of junior high school, all three uncles returned.

Uncle Chen Qianyu is also an honest man, he doesn't have much to say, he goes to get dinner after a little greeting with everyone, today is to eat at his house, Chen Qianyu cooks when he is at home, and his aunt can't do it, so he and his three sisters cook together during the New Year.

The second uncle Chen Jin is the deepest of the three uncles, pulling the three brothers-in-law to play cards, always intentionally or unintentionally blocking Li's father's cards. Hu Nan people all play leaf cards, and it is easy to make cards for the next family, which is nothing, but Li Shiyu watched from the side and found that the second uncle sometimes puts the water of the little uncle, and the food that should be touched will not be touched, so that the little uncle can eat it.

Isn't it just a matter of playing a few cents and a hull, does it need to be like this?

However, Li's father's luck and skills are good, and he even won. Li Shiyu was greatly relieved.

The order of New Year's greetings is from oldest to smallest, first grandpa's house, if grandpa lives in the uncle's house, then the first day is at the uncle's house, if the second uncle's house is in the second uncle's house, then the third uncle, and then the aunt's house, it should have been Li Shiyu's family, but I don't know when I started to go to the little uncle's house first, and then I found a few reasons, and only sent the children over to represent the matter.

After experiencing Li Shiyu again, he really realized his father's grievances, no wonder he likes to drink more and more, and often gets drunk, it turns out that he is escaping. Li Shiyu also avoided contact with them a little and was reluctant to think about it.

On the eighth day of the new year, after all the relatives, (we call off relatives here to pay New Year's greetings to relatives) Li's father began to arrange this year's affairs: "Shihua, Shiyu, your mother and I will go to Shenzhen in a few days, you must be obedient at home, Shihua is boarding at school, this is 1000 yuan, pay the tuition and pay the rest for your living expenses, if it is not enough, ask your grandfather." After speaking, he handed Li Shihua a stack of 1,000 money, Li Shihua took it and put it in his pocket: "Dad, don't worry, I will study hard and strive to come back first in the exam." ”

Li Shiyu couldn't help but glance at it, Li Shihua himself knows too well, except for this time he did a better exam, he didn't do well in the exam later, worse than himself, but he can speak well, and he can always find a reason, either he caught a cold during the exam, or the question was too difficult, everyone didn't take the exam or anything, and then the college entrance examination was also the same reason, saying that the food was not clean at school before the exam, diarrhea, and the state was not good, and he didn't get in, but he repeated it for a year, and he went to the school in the city to repeat it, and when he was studying, he went to the art school next door to learn harmonica and make a girl, and naturally he didn't get in。

Of course, his parents believe in Li Shihua, and Li Shiyu will not be bored.

After talking about Li Shihua, it's time to talk about yourself.

Sure enough, "Shiyu, last year you said that herding cattle delayed you, so your grades are not good, I forgive you, you don't have to herd cattle this year, if you don't do well in the test, you will be beaten." ”

Li Shiyu has already made up his mind to change the situation of his family, so he can't stay in this remote village, and he will never make money here: "Dad, I want to go with you to Shenzhen." ”

"No" Li's father didn't even think about it, and refused in one breath.

"Dad, I really can't read the book, and I get dizzy when I see the book. Li Shiyu first denied his own learning.

"That's not going to work, you have to read it if you can't read it. Father Li's tone didn't move at all.

"My grandfather's health is not good, and during the Chinese New Year, my uncle and they already had a big opinion, saying that they would only take care of our family, and they would not bring their grandchildren. The uncles didn't say this, but the countryside is like this, even if you don't say it now, you will use it in the future.

Father Li also made sense when he heard it, and glanced at Mother Li, and it was estimated that Mother Li was also worried about this.

"It's so hard to see that there's not even a place to live, and it's a sin for you to go, and your mother and I have to pick up waste, and we don't have time to take care of you. Father Li changed his perspective and tried to persuade Li Shiyu, as long as he persuaded Li Shiyu, no matter how he was, he would survive the past few years first, and then he would be in junior high school and boarding.

"How so? It doesn't cost much to rent a house. Li Shiyu pretended not to know and said.

Li's father had to explain: "We don't have a border permit, so we can't get a temporary residence permit. So you can't rent a house. ”

Li Shiyu was waiting for this sentence: "Isn't it enough to get a border defense permit? Is it difficult to get a border defense permit?"

In fact, what Li Shiyu doesn't know is that the border permit is easy to handle, but the temporary residence permit is not easy to handle, and the most important temporary residence permit is the Shenzhen Stock Exchange. And Li's father also knew that it was difficult to get a temporary residence permit, but he didn't know how difficult it was, so he didn't go to get it.

Father Li thought about it, and when he saw that there was no other way, he said, "I'll go and ask first, and if I can't do it, I'll stay at home." ”

"Why can't it be done, if you can't do it, go to Uncle Yao, it's going to be fine. "Li Shiyu has been thinking about these for a long time, and he has a plan in all aspects.

Uncle Yao is Li's father's cousin-in-law, the director of the county industrial and commercial bureau, and it is basically no problem to find him for anything, but Li's father has never gone to him for help. Later, in 93 years, the county industrial market was completed, the stall was sold, only 2000 a, knowing that Li's father was rich, Yao's uncle left a few good places, Li's father was afraid of trouble, and he didn't want it, and then it rose to hundreds of thousands in a few years, and directly scolded Li's father for a bloody head.

The next day, Li's father and mother went to the county seat with the household registration book and ID card, and found the county public security bureau, which has a special window to handle the border defense certificate, the procedure is not complicated, but the time will be longer, and it will take more than half a month to review something, without much hesitation, submit the materials, pay a fee of 100 yuan, and you can get the certificate after half a month.

In the past half a month, Li's father arranged things at home, and his grandfather also went to talk back, Li Shihua also went to school, and went to his grandfather's house during the holidays, planted the fields for his uncle, and entrusted him to take care of the house. In these years, it is not easy to plant the land for others, not only do you not collect rent, but you also have to pay your own agricultural tax, otherwise in a few years the field will be barren, and it will not be so easy to plant again.

On the twenty-third day of the first month, the border guard card was finally obtained, and the next day Li's father took his wife and children to embark on the southbound train together, because he left half a month later than others, and the car was not very crowded.

Slowly shaking all the way, Li Shiyu seemed very silent, it is unrealistic to chat with his parents, he can only think about his future plans in his mind, he is too young now, it is not appropriate to do something, he can only see if he can think of a better way for his parents when the time comes, don't work hard.

After more than 30 hours, I arrived at the Phuket Railway Station of Shenzhen Stock Exchange, and then took a short trip to Luohu District, where people from all over the world gathered.

Li's father picked up the rags here for 2 years, there is no place in the streets and alleys that is not familiar, and soon found a private house that is being rented in the suburbs, this place is specially selected by Li's father, the house is not bad, three tile houses, a large yard, between Luohu District and Futian District is just far away from the city, the landlord boss bought a new house in Luohu District, and it is empty here, so the price is cheap, only 1000 yuan a year, in Li's father's view, the most ideal is to have a large yard, and those broken copper and iron that are picked up also have a place, and the most important thing is that the landlord has a relationship and promised to help apply for a temporary residence permit。
