Chapter 44: Bloodstained Grace

Chung Ying Street, at the junction of the Special Administrative Region and Hong Kong, has created a commercial miracle of "shopping paradise" by virtue of the price difference and supply advantages brought about by the "one street, two systems", which is a sensation.

Gold jewelry, in particular, is a well-deserved sought-after item.

Domestic prices are skyrocketing, the price of gold here is much lower than the domestic market, and the latest styles in the Hong Kong market attract merchants and tourists from all over the country.

Experience the corrupt life and consumption mode of capitalism at zero distance, and everyone returns with a full load of large bags and small bags. Zhang Tiecheng not only spent all the 1,000 Hong Kong dollars given by the charter last night, but also spent the 2,000 that Wu Xiulan and Zhang Lin had spent in order to buy more things that couldn't be bought in Nanbin's hometown and give them away.

When he came back, he realized that he had bought a mess of things.

A bag of Japanese flavor pills for 10 Hong Kong dollars, also known as MSG, is actually monosodium glutamate, and it is 50 bags when you buy it. HK$10 for an umbrella, HK$10 for a metre of fabric, HK$10 for a bottle of Lee Kum Kee Fresh Soy Sauce...... It's almost back from the ten-dollar store.

They were all harmed by the lack of materials and supplies, so he asked a deputy director-level public security bureau to sweep the streets like a woman, and the regulations were mixed, and while helping him pack up, he asked: "Uncle Zhang, are these enough to go back, if they are not enough, I will buy some tomorrow." ”

"Enough, enough."

Zhang Tiecheng put down the monosodium glutamate, took the cigarette handed by Ding Wenming, and said with an embarrassed face: "San'er, Wenming, this time I really trouble you." The money for buying things is counted as borrowed by me, and it is deducted from the collection of the pass when I turn around, and it is brought back as welfare points anyway, which is not considered to be a personal gain by power. ”

Without waiting for the charter to speak, Gu Hongxia pretended to be angry and said, "Zhang Ju, you will see what you say!" San'er and Wenming are your juniors, and they are both starting businesses in the Special Economic Zone, not only to honor you, but also to fulfill the friendship of the landlord. If you can't even do that, what will they have to see you when they return to their hometown? ”

"Hongxia, one yard to one yard, if I really see outside, I can still live here? Stayed early in the hostel and went. It's not easy for children to make money, and I can't make a distinction between public and private. ”

Of course, I can't ask for this money charter, and I said sincerely: "Uncle Zhang, when I was selling cigarettes and reversing foreign exchange on the streets of my hometown, the branch bureau took care of it up and down. The grace of dripping water should be reciprocated by the spring, this kindness has always been remembered by San'er, if you really don't treat me as an outsider, then these things should be given to those uncles and uncles in my hometown. ”

When it came to this, Zhang Tiecheng no longer insisted, and waved his hand: "Okay, since it is your intention, then I will definitely help you bring them one by one." ”

Then he sighed: "It's different from patriotism, I haven't been a soldier, and I don't have many friends from all over the world." This trip out is clear, no matter where you go, there is still a hometown person, and a friend is good! ”

On one side is the sub-bureau, on the other side is his nephew and son, Ding Aiguo was caught in the middle and didn't know what to say, so he simply diverted the topic and asked curiously: "San'er, the Hong Kong people in Weishenme Zhongying Street call the renminbi 'minifigure' and the Hong Kong dollar 'Hong Kong paper'?" ”

The question is really a bit big, and after a moment of contemplation, the charter explained: "'Minifigures' means that the renminbi is strong and valuable, and 'Hong Kong paper' means that the Hong Kong dollar is not valuable. This has to do with the constant exchange rate for many years, and it can be said that it has changed the daily life of ordinary families in the SAR and Hong Kong.

However, in my opinion, the Hong Kong dollar is a grossly underrated character, not as worthless as they say it is. I'll give you an example, in accordance with the relevant national policies, you can buy two large and six small pieces tax-free at a time when you come back from Hong Kong on business, and the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region will pick up the goods, and the 20-inch music voice color TV is 2400 Hong Kong dollars, which is less than 800 yuan at the exchange rate. But in domestic stores, the same color TV costs at least 2400 yuan, and it also needs indicators, do you say that Hong Kong dollars are worth it? ”

Looking at his father's sudden realization, Ding Wenming added unwillingly: "In the Special Administrative Region, the Hong Kong dollar is indeed not as popular as foreign exchange coupons. This is not because the Hong Kong dollar is really worthless, but because the vast majority of people who do not have the opportunity to go to Hong Kong want to buy electrical appliances that are in short supply, so they can only use foreign exchange coupons to buy them. In contrast, the only goods that can be purchased in Hong Kong dollars can be considered pediatrics. ”

Zhang Tiecheng also reacted, nodded again and again: "I said that Weishenme on Zhongying Street does not sell electrical appliances, it turns out that the state does not allow it." ”

In front of the two directors of the bureau, Zhang Shuren, the father of the "** criminal", lacked confidence and felt that he was not qualified to intervene. So like his lover Lu Qianfang, as soon as he came back, he circled around Xiao Jiahui, hugging and kissing, and he didn't know that he thought it was his own grandson.

I got along day and night for two days and solved many problems.

Wu Xiulan not only showed a smiling face, but even said something to Liu Siwei for the first time, the meal was ready, and asked him to invite the guests to the restaurant to eat.

"Mom, I'll peel it all for you, you can eat another one." Zhang Hui can be called a model of filial piety, meticulously peeling the crab shell clean, and then dipping it in seasoning and carefully putting it in front of her mother.

On the issue of pleasing their mother, the three sisters and brothers of the Zhang family are unanimous, and Zhang Lin also echoed thoughtfully: "Yes, Mom, you eat more, although our family lives by the river and usually eats less crabs, but it is really rare to see such a big sea crab." ”

Wu Xiulan didn't seem to be moved, Gu Hongxia interjected: "Xiulan is blessed, her sons and daughters are more filial than the other, and each is more promising than the other." You see that my family is civilized, I sat for a long time, and I didn't even put a chopstick on the food, which is really more popular than people. ”

"Mom, I was wrong, I'll clip it to you."

Looking at Ding Wenming's funny appearance, Wu Xiulan smiled, picked up the crab meat and said, "Okay, okay, don't change the way to make me happy, I can't eat it?" ”

The knot in his heart was untied, and even Zhang Tiecheng, the only outsider, was happy, and hahadaxiao said: "Sister-in-law Xiulan, your children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, you are right." ”

Gu Hongxia and Lu Qianfang gave themselves a look, Liu Siwei hurriedly took the wine glass, got up and said: "Mom, I respect you for this glass of wine, first, to make amends to you, second, to wish you a long life, and third, to promise you that you will treat Xiaohui well in the future, and will never let her suffer even the slightest grievance." ”

After saying that, he drank it all, followed by a deep bow.

I can't help my mother, Xiao Jiahui will call grandma, what else can Wu Xiulan say? So he choked with tears and said: "The past is over, Director Zhang is right, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren, as long as you live well, I won't say anything more." ”

"Yes, let him pass the past!"

Ding Aiguo also picked up his wine glass and stood up, and smiled enthusiastically: "Come on...... Let's all toast together, and wish Siwei and Xiaohui to tie the knot and grow old together, in fact, I also want to say that there are children and grandchildren, but I don't know if there is a Jihua birth in Hong Kong. ”

Everyone immediately burst into laughter, and with Ding Aiguo's words of blessing, the family banquet turned into a belated wedding banquet.

Xiao Jiahui is so old, Zhang Hui was red-faced, but fortunately, there are no outsiders, so she is not too embarrassed. You talk and I say a word, talk and laugh; You have a cup and I have a cup, and I have a cup; The restaurant has a happy atmosphere.

People who come to the SAR from the mainland will be very excited and want to know more about this city of wonders that has developed in just a few years.

No one could sleep after dinner, and as soon as Gu Hongxia proposed to go to the factory to have a look, everyone agreed.

The real shareholder wants to see where her money is spent, this request is very reasonable, Liu Siwei had to be the driver again and take everyone around the factory.

The office building and living quarters are still under construction, except for a few rows of factories and a row of warehouses that are installing and debugging equipment day and night. But their interest is very high, look at this, ask that, after listening to the introduction of the project manager of the provincial second construction company, and propose to go to the rented temporary dormitory of the old factory to see those employees.

Ding Aiguo even raised this to a political level, believing that whether or not the work can be done well depends entirely on whether the team has combat effectiveness! This requirement is also very reasonable, and the charter can only take them with Liu Siwei, Li Xiaoshan, and Ding Wenming.

They were all young people, the conditions were difficult, there was no entertainment at night, and the makeshift dormitory was as ghostly as ever. As soon as I entered the gate of the old factory, I heard the high-pitched and incomplete "Nothing" coming from inside.

In front of Ding Aiguo, the head of the old army, Li Xiaoshan will always be the big soldier, and he was about to go in to let those guys with excess energy stop a little, Ding Aiguo grabbed him, and smiled casually: "Young people, a little energetic, making a lifeless is not conducive to work, not to mention that now is people's rest time." ”

"Maybe I say goodbye and will never come back, do you understand, do you understand? Maybe I will fall and will never get up again, do you have to look forward to it forever? If so, don't be sad, the flag of the republic has our blood-stained demeanor! If so, don't mourn, the flag of the republic has our blood-stained demeanor......"

As he was talking, the song inside changed.

It's nothing to sing, it's nothing to sing badly, the key depends on what song you sing!

"Bloodstained Style", the theme song of the movie "Fifteenth Moon", and the theme song of "Garland Under the Mountain", are the songs that the Zhang family most unwilling to hear.

Daxi and Dabei turned out to be so close, listening to the familiar melody, and looking at Wu Xiulan's pale face under the lights, holding on to the car door and crumbling, Ding Aiguo suddenly frowned, and blurted out: "Li Xiaoshan!" ”

"Here!"

"Let them change the song!"

"Yes!"

"Xiaoshan, come back."

Seeing that Li Xiaoshan stood up and saluted like when he was in the army, turned his head and was about to run over, Wu Xiulan, who didn't want to be excited by herself, hurriedly stopped, shook her head with sadness and said: "Xiaoshan, listen to my sister-in-law, let the children sing, I've been here for so many years, it's okay...... I'm fine, it's just...... It just felt a little sudden. ”

"Section chief, this ......" Li Xiaoshan was also like a knife, standing there with tears streaming down his face, and it was not okay not to go.

A big living person is just gone, no one can accept it!

After Zhang Yuanchao's sacrifice, there was no report meeting on heroic deeds in the city, although he was still in the army at that time, Ding Aiguo clearly understood that it was because Wu Xiulan was unwilling to participate.

She has been avoiding, has been unwilling to really face, with endless work and housework to paralyze herself, Zhang Hui Zhanglin's three sisters and brothers and half-paralyzed mother-in-law are the only motivation for her to survive.

Thinking that the old lady was already old, and the three sisters and brothers were all about to start a family, and she would have to face it alone sooner or later, Ding Aiguo sighed and said solemnly: "Listen to my sister-in-law, let the children continue to sing." ”

Looking at the silence of the three sisters and brothers of the Zhang family, Zhang Tiecheng, who felt inexplicable just now, suddenly realized.

“…… If so, don't mourn, the flag of the republic has our blood-stained demeanor. Maybe I can't open my eyes again, do you understand my silent feelings? Maybe I will not wake up from my long sleep, do you believe that I have turned into a mountain? If so, don't be sad, the soil of the republic has the love we give! If so, don't be sad, the soil of the republic has the love we give......"

Joy is sad, and when eating, he is still happy, but suddenly he hears this such a sad song.

Before the people inside sang a word of zuihou, Zhang Lin couldn't hold back anymore, and cried bitterly. followed by Zhang Hui, the two sisters were grief-stricken, hugging their tearful mother and crying, how sad and sad they were.

Many people have seen and cried about "Garland Under the Mountain", but how many people can remember it?

Many people have heard and sung this song "Bloodstained Style", but how many people have really understood it?

There is a mausoleum on the mountain more than 1,000 kilometers away from here, where his father Zhang Yuanchao is buried.

In my previous life, when I went to pay tribute, I met a veteran who had also been on the front line, and at that time I was still ignorant and asked: What is it like to go to the battlefield? The veteran smiled faintly, reluctant to answer. Later, when Li Xiaoshan was asked in Hujiang, Li Xiaoshan was reluctant to answer.

It wasn't until the moment when my grandmother remembered her father before she died that she really felt what kind of life and death it was! People are still jumping in front of them one minute, and the next minute they are lying cold in front of them.

Maybe it's because the mental age is much longer than the actual age, or maybe it's because the sad ones have already been sad, although the charter is also uncomfortable and unpleasant, but they still can't hold back their tears, motioned to the eldest brother-in-law to help them get into the car, and asked softly: "Uncle Ding, Uncle Zhang, why don't we go back first?" ”

"Yes, yes, it's too late, I can watch it tomorrow."

Back at the villa, Wu Xiulan and Zhang Hui Zhanglin hugged their heads and cried again, until Xiao Jiahui woke up to pee, and the mother and daughter recovered from their grief.

On the balcony on the second floor, the men listened to the sound of the waves, and it was not until Gu Hongxia came up and told Wu Xiulan that she was okay, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhang Tiecheng snuffed out the cigarette butt and asked worriedly: "San'er, your mother is also so sensitive when she is in her hometown?" ”

The charter shook his head and explained helplessly: "Today is mainly stimulated, my mother is like a table, our sister and brother and my grandmother are her four legs, I didn't see the eldest brother-in-law, I didn't really accept the eldest brother-in-law, the son-in-law was nothing, and if I really accepted it today, it was equivalent to missing a leg, so ...... So it's particularly sensitive. ”
