Chapter 3 Six people, three generations, two and a half rooms

"Auntie?" Zhang Zhao was stunned for a long time before he reacted, and the young girl in front of him who was dressed simply and did not apply powder was his aunt. It is now 85 years, my aunt is only 22 years old, 3 years ago because of the failure of the college entrance examination to take my grandfather's class, and then worked hard to be admitted to the full-time staff university of the sixth factory, and is currently studying full-time.

"Zhang Zhao, did you make trouble today?" My aunt knocked lightly on the window and asked with a smile.

"No ......" Facing his aunt, who is 30 years younger, he has an indescribable awkwardness.

"Ruiping is back," Zhang's mother said in the kitchen, "The dish will be ready soon, why don't you come to the house and eat together?" ”

"No, the third sister-in-law, I've already eaten at school, the third nephew is here, and my aunt will give you something to eat."

"Okay." Zhang Zhao, who was feeling bored, put on his shoes and followed his aunt to the upper room.

The so-called upper house is the public housing built by the sixth factory, a trip house has a total of 10 households, the houses are connected to each other, and the symmetrical layout area of each two houses is 36 square meters, with only one master bedroom and a kitchen.

My aunt's house is half separated by a kitchen, only about 4 or 5 square meters, except for a single bed and a desk close to the bed, there is only a corridor less than a meter wide. Because there was only a small window facing north, it was very dark in the house.

My aunt casually threw her schoolbag on the bed, then took out a yellow-white striped oiled paper package in the drawer of the desk, took out the last biscuit inside, broke it open, and handed over the larger half.

Zhang Zhao didn't pick it up, and he was used to eating Oreo and Haoliyou in the later generations, and he really couldn't be interested in this kind of tasteless calcium milk biscuits. My aunt shook the biscuit in her hand and said, "If I don't eat it, I can eat it all?" Seeing that Zhang Zhao didn't say anything, she ate the remaining half of the biscuits, and chewed: "Strange, why are you acting so abnormally today?" Do you say ......"

When Zhang Zhao heard this, his heart pounded, could it be that my aunt found out my secret? It shouldn't be.,Mom and grandma didn't feel anything.,Although it's a rebirth.,But after all, it's reborn in yourself.,Even if there's a little difference in behavior, it won't be too big.。 Damn, if she suddenly asks me what happened a few days ago, how can I, a soul thirty years later, answer?

"Whose little girl do you have a crush on?"

...... Zhang Zhao looked stunned, please, this body is only four years old, although sex education has to start with dolls, but it's too early, right?

"Don't be embarrassed, tell my aunt who she is, and I'll trick her into coming home to play for you."

Please, auntie, is that okay? The maximum death penalty for three years is no, no, at this time, the juvenile (scum) protection law has not yet been enacted, right? Doesn't that mean......

The snap startled Zhang Zhao, but it was his aunt who slapped him on the buttocks with her hand, and said angrily: "Stinky boy, what are you thinking?" Hey, I can't really be right, right? Let's talk about it, isn't it Lin Jia from the street? ”

"Yes, I have someone I like, I like my aunt the most, you can marry me!" Zhang Zhao doesn't remember what Lin Jia looks like, she seems to be a very rude little girl, but at this time, whether she admits it or not, she will be teased by her aunt, so just fight back!

"the eggs, what are you talking about! Go home and eat! My aunt's face was a little flushed, and she pushed Zhang Zhao out of the room and slammed the door shut.

Uh, seems like a joke was overdone? Zhang Zhao scratched his head, what about him, anyway, now that he is a child, no one will care about what he says. casually said hello to the grandmother who was lying on the bed in the big room listening to the commentary, pushed the door and walked out.

Between the upper and lower rooms is a small courtyard, and even if you count the passage that is more than 1 meter wide at the entrance, it is only a little more than 10 square meters. The stones paved in the yard have been somewhat damaged, and under the edge of the neighbor's house near the east side, there is a piece of dirt land that is less than half flat, and there are more than 20 sweet stalks sparsely growing in the field, which have produced sorghum ears that are not full, which Zhang Zhao planted himself in the spring. However, the weeding and fertilization in the future are all done by the grandmother when raising flowers.

On the west side of the courtyard, near the window edge of the house, is a flower stand welded with angle iron, on which are stacked with more than two dozen flower pots. There are many types of flowers, such as peonies, jasmine, pomegranates, bamboo, and junzi orchids......

Wait, Junzilan seems to have been fried crazy for a while, and it can be sold for tens of thousands of hundreds of thousands of high prices, what year has it been? Damn, I was too homely in my last life, except for Lao Chen's camera or something, I don't know anything else, whether it's political news or social news.

"Zhang Zhao, why are you staying here? Let's go, go to the house, grandpa will tell you about the tiger! The loud voice came from behind, startling Zhang Zhao, and when he looked back, it was his grandfather who was pushing a dilapidated 28 permanent bicycle back.

"I don't listen to the old stories." Zhang Zhao grimaced at his grandfather and replied casually.

I don't know why my grandfather, as a fisherman who was born by the sea but has never touched a fishing net a few times, always likes to tell the story of Changbai Mountain to his grandchildren (he has never been there in his life). At first glance, it sounds very interesting, for example, the black bear is invulnerable, only a pinch of white hair grows on the heart, and it will die if it hits; The old ginseng is all refined, and you can't dig it directly when you see ginseng, otherwise the ginseng will run away. Ginseng pickers must use a sewing needle to wear a red thread and pin it to the ginseng leaves, and then dig it up along the red thread at noon the next day; The tiger is the king of beasts, and when he sees his prey, as long as he roars, the prey will obediently pick it down and wait to be eaten. It's a pity that grandpa can talk about these things, and he listens to it so much that he Xianglin's sister-in-law seems to be absolutely unbearable.

"Then you go home quickly, it will be dark in a while, and the mosquitoes will be hateful (ne! Grandpa didn't think it was wrong, and parked the car in a low shed on the west side of the yard with a smile, which was only 1.5 meters high, and grandpa had to keep his head down when he pushed the cart in. This small shed, which now houses sundries and bicycles, used to be the uncle's residence before joining the work division.

Later generations of people say every day that the house is expensive and can't afford it, nostalgic for the era of welfare housing in the past, but when it comes to the era of welfare housing, many people are looking forward to being housing slaves but can't get it. The so-called welfare housing depends on many aspects such as length of service, marriage, and original family housing, and it is almost unattainable for unmarried young people who have just joined the workforce.

If the efficiency of the unit is relatively good, for example, a monopoly enterprise with a Chinese prefix such as the No. 6 Factory, it may be able to share a set of old houses vacated by others relatively quickly after marriage, and if some units or civil servants with poor efficiency can rent a mixed set of collective dormitories, even if they burn high incense, there are even cases where their grandchildren are married and have to be crowded in a room with their grandfather and parents.....

When I returned home, Zhang's mother had already brought the meal to the table, small cabbage soup and eggs and fried cucumbers, yellow, green and green were very good-looking. Zhang Zhao, who couldn't wait, was about to pick up chopsticks and prepare to eat, but found that he didn't even have a rice bowl in front of him. Well, when I think about it, it seems that I was fed by my mother until I went to elementary school, and my lazy cancer was developed at this time.

"Wait a minute, son, right away." Zhang's mother used chopsticks to pick out the two or three pieces of meat in the soup and vegetables into Zhang Zhao's rice bowl.

"Mom, don't give me meat, I want to lose weight!"

Zhang's mother put slices of meat, eggs and a small vegetable leaf on top of a spoonful of rice, and brought them to Zhang Zhao's mouth and said, "What stupid thing is this kid talking about?" Eat more meat to grow up! Come, ah, open your mouth. ”

Zhang Zhao subconsciously opened his mouth and swallowed the food, well, it is the taste of his mother's cooking, and his parents will not come to Fengcheng in the future, he can only eat his mother's dishes when he goes home for the New Year.

Eh, is it really good to let your mother feed you in your thirties? But this feeling is really nostalgic, and if it suddenly becomes a meal by herself, my mother may be suspicious, do you want to experience it again? I'll have my own dinner tomorrow.

Zhang's mother couldn't help but be a little surprised when she watched her son swallow the rice balls in a big gulp, and didn't pick out all the vegetable leaves like he did every day. But wouldn't it be bad if my son started to be picky eaters again after mentioning it? So, the meal went on in an eerie calm, until the doorbell rang and Zhang's father pushed his bicycle into the yard.

"Coming back? Wash your hands and eat! Zhang Mu looked at the time, it was almost 7 o'clock, and she couldn't help but feel a little distressed: "Your stomach is fine, why don't you bring you food next time?" ”

Zhang Zhao looked at his dusty father and fell into deep thought. Zhang's father worked for a construction company (collective enterprise) under the Jinzhou Railway Bureau under the great Ministry of Railways, and his main business was to build welfare housing for the growing number of railway workers.

Originally, the work was not bad, but since last year, I have been arranged to work in Goubangzi, which is more than 60 kilometers away from Jinzhou, and the unit cannot solve the accommodation problem locally. In this way, Zhang's father's job has become to go out from home at 4 o'clock in the morning, ride a bicycle for 20 minutes to Jinzhou Railway Station, and then take a special commuter green car on the railway, spend an hour and a half to Goubangzi, and return the same way in the evening......

In less than a year, Zhang's father's weight lost more than 20 pounds, and later he accidentally fell from the third floor during a construction and cracked his lumbar vertebrae.

Zhang Zhao doesn't remember when his father fell and injured himself, but for this kind of accident, the easiest way is not to prevent it, but to draw a salary from the bottom of the kettle.

When his father came to the table, Zhang Zhao hurriedly said: "Dad, you can't make much money from your work so tired that you die, why don't you just quit your job!" ”

With a snap, Zhang's mother put the rice bowl on the table with a calm face and said, "Zhang Zhao! Did you listen to what the old Sanhu of the Bining family said? Resign, resign, you drink the northwest wind? ”

Dad also helped on the side: "Yes, it's not a blind stream, how can a normal person not go to work?" I'm tired of commuting now, but I earn a lot, and the monthly subsidy is more than 20 yuan! ”

Zhang Zhao stuck out his tongue, he forgot that people in this era are quite contemptuous of people who don't have formal jobs. The chain of blind date contempt in this era should be like this, state-owned enterprises> collective enterprises> government civil servants> self-employed, even if the individual boss makes more money, everyone will only spit on a speculative sentence behind their backs, and there is not much envy.

The main reason is that the commodity economy in this era is underdeveloped, the goods and services that can be bought are single and scarce, and the rich will not enjoy much more than the ordinary wage earners.

Unless you can exchange for foreign exchange, everyone is watching black and white TVs and wearing clothes cut from their own fabrics, and no matter how much you have RMB, you will not be able to buy a 65-inch color TV or Armani fashion.

"Then Dad, pay attention to safety when you are at work, and be sure to fasten your seat belt." Zhang Zhao had no choice but to settle for the next best.

"Seat belts? You mean the safety rope, right? Isn't that only for scaffolders? I all work in the building and don't need that. His father's answer made Zhang Zhao speechless for a while, the safety awareness of this era is really not enough.

"I don't care, you have to wear a safety rope anyway, otherwise I won't eat or sleep!" It is related to his father's health and even his life, Zhang Zhao does not dare to be ambiguous. Fortunately, as a child, no one will care about being unreasonable.

"This kid, how can you say something stupid today?" Zhang's mother touched Zhang Zhao's head with some joy and said, "Then Ruizhong, you can listen to the child, after all, paying attention to safety is not a bad thing!" ”

Seeing Zhang's father nodding, Zhang Zhao breathed a long sigh of relief, after being reborn, he has been a little confused, because he was originally an unenterprising character, and he had no interest in making money as an official or anything (of course, in order to achieve financial freedom, it is still necessary to find an opportunity to earn one or twenty million yuan appropriately), and he didn't know what his future path should be.

It was only at this time that he realized that even if there was no system, even if he knew nothing about the major events in history, he had at least thirty years of memories and experience, so it should be a good idea to change the fate of the people around him and make life better. Maybe a lazy little butterfly can make a big difference in this world?
