Between neighbors, relatives and friends, even if the relationship is very familiar and close, it does not mean that there are no conflicts between each other.

The old Zhang family, a big family, is also a big clan force in Qiao'an Community, Gangji Town. After all, Zhang Henong has almost a dozen brothers and cousins in his generation. And Zhang Henong's branch also has four men and one woman, namely Zhang Tan's uncle, father, third uncle, fourth uncle, and sister-in-law.

The sister-in-law married in Lu'an City, and everyone else lived in Qiao'an Community.

Even the houses are built next to each other.

Several of the children of the uncle's family have grown up. is not in line with Tan Mingxia's comparison with Zhang Tan. The real object of comparison is the eldest and second eldest of the third uncle's family, and the only son of the fourth uncle's family.

These three people are about the same age as Zhang Tan, and the age difference is no more than two years.

Growing up together since childhood, playing together, of course, they also fought all the way. Not only will the cousins compare with each other, but the mothers of the connected people will also compare with each other.

There are several cousins, and their grades are all in a mess, except for Zhang Tan, who has gone to study in Shuangdun Middle School, the eldest of the third uncle's family in the other three, is studying in the second year of high school on the job. The second eldest of the third uncle's family is still in the third year of junior high school because he is younger than Zhang Tan. As for the only son of the fourth uncle's family, he is also older than Zhang Tan, but he has repeated the grade twice, and he is currently in the third year of junior high school.

The eight-year compulsory education of five years of primary school and three years of junior high school is generally practiced in the Heqi area, which may be the relationship of one year less in primary school.

In the past, it could only be compared to bad, but now it is finally different, Zhang Tan turned over, and the novel was printed directly on the book, becoming a well-known writer.

This is the old Zhang family's ancestors have never had a glorious lintel. According to genealogical records, the Zhang family traces back five generations and was all farming. Zhang Tan's grandfather, Zhang Henong, was born in a poor middle peasant that he became a commune cadre in that era. Of course, Zhang Tan's grandmother's family is said to be a "scholarly family", and grandma's father and grandma's father's father are all teaching craftsmen.

Zhang Henong's name was taken by Zhang Tan's grandmother's father, and he also taught Zhang Henong to read and write, got rid of his illiteracy status, and was appreciated, and married even his daughter to him as a wife.

When he was a child, Zhang Tan liked to listen to his grandfather tell his story, and he felt that it was a legend, a counterattack by farmers.

When Zhang Henong was young, his family was poor and he couldn't afford to study, so he herded cattle for the landlord's family, but he was full of desire to study and often went to listen to the landlord's children's classes. The teacher is naturally Grandma Zhang Tan's father, and because of this, Grandma Zhang Tan's father will appreciate Zhang Henong.

After starting a family, Zhang Henong relied on the knowledge of his father-in-law's church and his tall stature, and was full of prestige among the villagers. In addition, he was bold, and when he killed the hostile elements at the criticism meeting, no one in the whole village dared to shoot, and he alone dared to shoot, and it is said that he killed several traitors.

Cultured, courageous, and prestigious, it is not surprising that the county appointed Zhang Henong as the secretary of the commune to preside over the work.

After the chaos, Zhang Henong ushered in a new opportunity, and he was given two choices: one was to respond to the country's aid to the construction of Xinjiang and transfer him to a new department-level cadre; The other is to apply for the Air Force pilot.

These two paths are both first-class and first-class good ways.

Needless to say, almost no one was willing to go to Xinjiang at the beginning, but those who were willing to go were later promoted, and it was not a problem for department-level cadres to become department-level cadres, especially Zhang Henong still has a bit of culture and courage, and I believe that he can go further in Xinyi.

It is also a great thing to apply for the air force pilot, and the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea has made the People's Liberation Army understand how embarrassing it is to not have an air force, so it is necessary to form a modern air force unit in China.

Zhang Tan sometimes thinks that if his grandfather goes to Xinyi, then he may now be the son of an official eunuch, the third generation of officials.

Sometimes I think that if my grandfather had been a pilot in the Air Force, then he might have grown up in the army for three generations.

It's just a pity that the third generation of officials and the third generation of the military have nothing to do with him.

Zhang Henong chose to apply for the Air Force pilot examination, and the materials prepared for him by the organization were all written, and based on his performance in the local area, he went to the Air Force to be the key training object. But an accident happened, everything was ready, but there was a physical problem. Zhang Henong thought that he had no scars on his body, but he was still found out, and there was a scar on his back.

It was this small scar that was brushed off by the Air Force.

During this period of mobilization, all the pits left by pulling radishes had been quickly filled, and Zhang Henong, who had been brushed down, suddenly became a redundant person and was transferred back to the commune. In the era of not seeking to be born, he didn't seize the opportunity, and in the era of fighting interpersonal relationships, Zhang Henong's temperament was straight and unpleasant.

Therefore, he stumbled on the commune seat until he was old and retired.

After retiring, every time he recalled the past, Zhang Henong had to sigh a few times.

Then I put my heart on calligraphy.

Maybe writing calligraphy can make him forget the grievances of his career.

……

The topic is a bit far, all in all, the old Zhang family has been farming for generations, and although Zhang Henong has been a commune cadre, he is still a farmer with land and land.

For farmers.

The lethality of the writer is still very sharp.

"This is written by our family Yangyang, his child, you know, don't like to study, just like to write and draw. Alas, all the ingenuity is put on not doing the right thing. Chatting between the concubines, Tan Mingxia said "modestly".

As soon as I heard this, I knew that it was a rhetoric.

Zhang Tan held the teacup, looked up at the ceiling, and tried not to think about it, is it a long face or a shame for my mother to show off like this.

"Second sister-in-law, you are wrong, the books written by Yang Yang have been published in the book, you have the ability, you will be blessed with the second brother in the future. Yanzi was admitted to university, and Yang Yang became a writer again, which is so enviable. The third aunt complimented insincerely.

"That's right, a few of us in the future, you are the most blessed." The eldest aunt said with a smile, in fact, she is also quite blessed, her sons and daughters are older, they mix well, they don't mix well, and they don't talk about it, but they are very filial.

Sons and daughters are filial, which is more rare than anything else.

The fourth aunt was a little envious and a little depressed: "Your family is promising, my family Zhang Yuan doesn't know how to do it, he has been in the second grade, and he still doesn't know how to study, and his father wants to send him to be a soldier." But with his elm head, he was also bullied when he was sent to be a soldier. ”

Zhang Yuan is Zhang Tan's cousin who is still in the third year of junior high school.

I can't say I'm stupid, but it's true that I don't have enough courage.

In the compliment of the concubine, Tan Mingxia's vanity was greatly satisfied, and after talking and laughing for half an hour, Tan Mingxia said to Zhang Tan: "Yangyang, go and call your second brother and sister-in-law, as well as your father and your fourth uncle, everyone is just together to discuss something." ”

This is to discuss the opening of an Internet café, Zhang Tan, who has long been impatient, immediately ran to call someone.

After a while, in Dabery, a large family gathered together.

Zhang Tan's fourth uncle and fourth aunt, and the second brother and sister-in-law of the uncle's family all looked at Tan Mingxia and didn't know why.

"The fourth family and Juanzi (second sister-in-law), I came to you to talk about the problem of layoffs. Your cannery is also being laid off, and your second brother's grain station is also being laid off. To be honest, we don't want to be laid off, but if we continue to make trouble, there will be no good results, and the whole country is now being laid off in a big way, and it is not a problem of one or two families. ”

On the issue of layoffs, under Zhang Tan's indoctrination, Tan Mingxia has already come to her senses.

Now it's her turn to enlighten others.

Tan Mingxia was already able to speak well at home, and Zhang Tan beat the side drum from the side, and soon the news that the laid-off was irreversible became everyone's consensus. This also made the fourth uncle, fourth aunt, second brother, and second sister-in-law even more worried, and the impact of being laid off on their families was too great.

The second brother and second sister-in-law already have children, and only after raising children do they know how hard life is, and they can't afford to have no income.

It is far from enough to rely on the second brother to work.

At this time, Tan Mingxia threw out the idea of opening an Internet café.
