Shen Biying came out of the kitchen with a bowl of oily braised pork, put it on the dining table, and said to her daughter-in-law Xue Zhen.

"Okay." Xue Zhen answered softly, let go of the daughter she was holding, and stood up with her stomach straight.

"I'll call it, you go to the kitchen to help Biying serve food." Father-in-law Kong Ze put down the newspaper, took off his reading glasses, opened the door, and went downstairs.

Kong Lingchen's house has two suites.

Not long after they got married, they participated in the sixth batch of house purchases and bought a set of forty-five square ones. At that time, the construction of the new city had just begun, and in order to attract domestic educated youth, the house price was set very low, and it only cost more than 400 yuan, which was equivalent to Kong Lingchen's salary for three months.

The next year, Xue Zhen became pregnant.

In order to take care of her, Kong Lingchen's mother rushed over from Shanghai, and the house was not enough to live in.

Kong Lingchen's total income reached more than 100 yuan a month at that time, and he was one of the few wealthy people in the factory, so he paid for another 75-square-meter suite in the Seiko community.

However, because it is the second house to buy, there is no discount, and this three-bedroom suite cost more than 1,600 yuan in total.

Although it is more than three times more expensive than the first set, it is only equivalent to his annual income. Besides, Xue Zhen also has a job, and then applied for installment payment, and it is not difficult to buy this suite.

Now Xue Zhenxiao and his family live in a set of three, and Shen Biying and his wife live in their original one.

Maybe it was because the family conditions were good when he was a child, and after going to the mountains and going to the countryside, he had a grudge against life in the countryside, and he had a compensatory mentality.

He bought two portable tape recorders successively, and replaced several gall machines and power amplifiers. Later, the base launched a five-point one-tone combination stereo, and he went to buy another set. In order to place these sound equipment, a wooden floor was laid in one room, and the walls were soundproofed, and a listening room was built. And often buy audio magazines to read, and become a hifi enthusiast.

It's already past half past seven, and he has already gotten off work in the factory, Xue Zhen has been here for almost two hours, Kong Lingchen hasn't come over yet, and he knows that he must be nesting in the listening room again.

Xue Zhen helped her mother-in-law bring out the dishes, fill the table, and then before the meal started, she first fed her one-year-old daughter and let her eat to her heart's content. The daughter looks like her, with a round little face, a small nose, and a pair of dark eyes, which are very cute. She rarely cried when she was a baby, and after she was a year old, she became more sensible, always sitting quietly beside her mother, pulling her mother's sleeves and hems never annoying.

Shen Biying and his wife still love this little granddaughter. However, although the Kong family has three children, the first two are sisters, and only Kong Lingchen is a boy. Out of the traditional patriarchal thinking, they still hope that Xue Zhen can give birth to a boy for their Kong family this time, so that they can pass on the ancestry.

Fortunately, there is no family planning in the base area, and Xue Zhen has just given birth to a child less than a year ago and is pregnant again, so they still have some hope.

For the sake of possible little grandchildren in the future, Shen Biying and his wife didn't even go to work, and Xue Zhen was only more than three months pregnant, so they asked for a long leave from the unit and came to take care of her.

"I ate braised pork again today, why do you braise pork every day." The door opened, and before Kong Lingchen could come in, the voice floated in first.

Hearing her father's voice, her daughter immediately widened her big black eyes, and as soon as she saw Kong Lingchen's figure appear at the door, she immediately cracked her small mouth with two baby teeth and laughed, stretched out a pair of chubby little hands, and said in a vague voice: "Lie down, hug!" ”

"My little girl, okay, okay, dad will hug it, come, let dad kiss one!" Kong Lingchen loves this daughter to death.

As soon as he heard the sound of her milky voice, his eyes narrowed into a line, and he didn't have time to change his shoes, so he ran over in three steps and two steps, picked up his daughter, and kissed her on the face, making her giggle and shake her head from side to side, avoiding the stubble on his chin.

"What do you eat without braised pork? After only a few days of eating, I feel like a grandfather? I don't even want to eat braised pork. Shen Biying knocked on his head with chopsticks, "Tomorrow I will go to Fairview Square, buy a ribbon fish and come back, and plug your mouth!" ”

Although the local aquaculture industry is doing well, and chickens, ducks, and fish are abundant, the seafood such as hairtail fish is still very scarce, and only Xincheng supermarkets can sell it.

It's just that the price is much more expensive than pork, and one pound of hairtail fish can be worth two pounds of pork.

"It's still mom who hurts me the most!" Kong Lingchen slapped a sycophant with a hippie smile, and kissed his daughter's blown little face hard, "Nannan, you have a good mouth, Dad will feed you hairtail tomorrow." Let me tell you, this hairtail fish is delicious, Dad didn't have a chance to eat much when he was a child, but tomorrow you will know if you eat it, it is much better than pork and chicken. ”

"The fish...... Eat ......" daughter can not say much, and he can't understand his tirade, so she can only roughly imitate his accent and repeat, which makes the family happy again.

"She's still young, she can't even eat more porridge, and you still let her eat hairtail, and you're not afraid of fish bones getting stuck!" Kong Ze couldn't help but scold when he heard his son's unobtrusive words.

"I'll just help her get the bones out." Kong Lingchen was not convinced.

"You can't even pick your own thorns, and you can pick them again!" Shen Biying handed out the dishes and chopsticks and said sarcastically.

"I'll pick her out, her teeth haven't grown yet, I'll chew them first and then feed her." Xue Zhen said softly on the side, which can be regarded as a round for her husband.

The family sat down.

"By the way, Dad, tomorrow the TV will go on sale, and I decided to buy one too. Tomorrow Sunday, we're going out as a family. Kong Lingchen saw the newspaper his father was reading, mixed with an advertising flyer from Xincheng Supermarket, and reached out to pick it up.

"There will definitely be a lot of people tomorrow!" Kong Ze said very little, chewing slowly.

"There must be a lot of people, tomorrow is Sunday. People just look at the rest day, so they will choose tomorrow as the premiere day of the TV station, just to sell a few more TVs. Let's go see first, and if it's not crowded, we'll buy one. If there are a lot of people, we will go to the next book mountain park to play, anyway, there is no delay in time. Kong Lingchen spread out the leaflet, pointed to the exquisite pictures on it, and said, "If you want to buy it, buy a bigger one, buy this kind of 21-inch large-screen color TV." ”

His income is now higher than two years ago, and his monthly salary, bonuses, seniority salary, education salary, subsidies, etc., add up to more than 400 yuan. What's more, he also enjoys a special contribution allowance, with an additional 500 yuan per month.

Xue Zhen also has more than 200 yuan a month, and the two of them together have a monthly income of 1,23.

A 21-inch large-screen color TV is only one month's salary!

"You're just burning too much money!" Shen Biying hit the nail on the head and said, "Why do you buy such an expensive one?" I think it's good to buy a nineteen-inch one. More money, I'll help you save it, and if something happens in the future, you won't panic. ”

Kong Ze nodded, very much in recognition of his wife's words.

"Mom, you're old in the old way!" Kong Lingchen is different, he has his cognition, "There are only four things in life, food, clothing, housing and transportation." clothes, five dollars cheap, one or two hundred dollars expensive; food, our family has big fish and meat every day, and it is less than 100 yuan; Housing, although there are no preferential treatments in the base area now, compared with the salary level, that is, the income of one or two years; Yes, it doesn't cost much to take the bus or ride a bicycle by yourself.

Go to the hospital, pay for minor illnesses, and carry the country for major illnesses, how many times can you get sick this year, and how much money can you use? Last year, Xiao Zhen gave birth to a child, and stayed in the hospital for a month before and after giving birth, but she only paid more than 1,000 yuan.

Education and local school are free of charge. You have the ability to study until you graduate with a doctorate and you don't need to pay a penny yourself.

Work, even if you can't find a suitable position for the time being, you can continue to stay in the labor skills school, or you don't want to go to the university to apply for a new major and readjust the direction of career choice. The Labor Service Department also pays 20 yuan a month, and it is definitely not possible to live comfortably, but at least not to go hungry.

Do the math, what else do you need to worry about? Isn't this money just used for use, I spend a lot, but I also earn a lot! ”

"You always have a point! Even if you don't lack money, your eldest sister and second sister don't give you stickers? Shen Biying couldn't compete with her son, so she had to talk about her two daughters.

"The eldest sister is married to a national cadre, what is going on. Although the second sister is almost, she hasn't arranged a job since she returned to the city, so don't I also send her fifty yuan a month, it's enough to be benevolent and righteous......"

Before he finished speaking, he was knocked on the door of his head by Shen Biying: "What is benevolence and righteousness!" How do you speak, that's your sister! ”

"I asked her to come to the base area, but she refused to do so, because she thought it was a country ......, and she didn't know which side was more like the countryside. If she doesn't come, I still give her fifty yuan a month, which is more than she earns when she goes to work, is it not enough to be benevolent? Kong Lingchen said stupidly, "Besides, the base area is developing so fast, everyone's income is rising." When I first started working, I was happy to take 78 yuan a month, and in just a few years, my income has risen to thousands! Looking at the development of the base area, our income will rise in the future, and this money is still very valuable yesterday, and we will look at it after a while......"

"It's still worth the money!" Shen Biying said categorically.

Kong Lingchen was choked for a moment, and changed his words: "Yes, it's still valuable, but the income is increasing, and we will have more and more money on hand." What I mean by this is that the consumption power of the base areas is increasing, and we can't look at things with the old eyes. Besides, if everyone doesn't spend money, who will sell the products they produce? In the end, the product can't be sold, the factory has no profit, and it goes bankrupt and closes down, so can we pay back the 20 yuan a month from the labor service company? ”

"Will the country's factories still go out of business?" Shen Biying was surprised.

"Of course! Private owners can go out of business, but why can't state units go out of business? If you know that the country will go to the bottom, then every factory doesn't have to do things, and in the end, people are floating in things, who will do the work? It's been said many times in the factory. The factory director, workshop director, and team leader are all keeping an eye on it, for fear that the workers will be lazy and make their best to produce defective products, and the factory will finally close down. Kong Lingchen despised his mother, who was rare and strange.

"This seems to be the case here," Kong Ze reads a lot of newspapers and knows some places where the base is different from China, and confirmed, "If you don't do well here, you will be fired, and if the factory is not doing well, it will be closed, and it will be called that ...... Asset restructuring. ”

"Why is there such a thing, this is still the world of **?" Shen Biying was shocked and said indignantly.

"How fresh you are saying, who said that the world of ** will raise lazy people! Besides, this is not yet to the point of distribution according to demand, now it is socialism, and it can only be distributed according to work! More work, more, less work, no work! I have good technology, work hard, and create great value for the factory and the country. Kong Lingchen pouted.

If the base area really makes a big pot of rice, it can still develop, and there is a ghost!
