In the small courtyard of the Zhao family in the county seat, Zhao Dashan was chatting with Zhou Xiaozheng and Weng and his son-in-law in the living room. This will Zhou Xiao is boasting about his daughter, full of regrets that the child got married too early, and he originally planned to stay for a few more years.

"Uncle Zhou, you are so right, Xiao Wu definitely has bad intentions, and he hurriedly married Jiaojiao back to have a son so early. You don't know how pitiful Jiaojiao is. I can't go shopping with me during confinement, and I can't go as long as I want, just now we and my aunt were still thinking about going to SH. As a result, Jiaojiao finally had to wait for Xiao'an to be three months old before she could go out. ”

Zhao Yuanyuan just came in and heard it, and hurriedly expressed her opinion. She just hates that Zhang Guoqing is getting married so early, it's okay to be late, what's the hurry, it seems to be chasing her life.

Come on, this girl is here. Zhang Guoqing hurriedly raised his head and rolled his eyes a few times, which pot is not opened. This girl always wants to rob Jiaojiao with him. What a hidden rival in love!

Zhao Dashan saw her come in, still carrying a cloth bag in her hand, and asked, "Did you tell your Aunt Zhou that your Uncle Zhou will go back later in the evening?" And why did you go to Jiaojiao, then you came back with a bag? ”

Zhao Yuanyuan smirked, "I didn't want it from Aunt Zhou, so I was suppressed by the two of them." I will give you a drink and a snack. ”

Zhou Xiaozheng looked at this stupid girl, he really couldn't compare with his Jiaojiao, "Take it and let your mother add vegetables." You go there, what are they doing? ”

Zhao Yuanyuan hurriedly patted her head, "Uncle Zhou, they are chatting." I happened to ask Jiaojiao to help me come up with an idea. Dad, didn't you say that you want me to set goals and fulfill my dreams in life? I'm telling you, and I'm telling you very clearly now, that my dream is to be a conductor on a train. What do you think? Jiaojiao said that this is not restricted, the vacation time is long, and you can run over to play from all over the country. Let me think about it and ask for your opinion. On the way back, I thought this was much better than the supply and marketing cooperatives selling things. Dad, how about it, you can tell me what you think, if you can, help me. ”

When Zhang Guoqing heard this, he couldn't let Zhou Jiao be detained, and he knew the most about his wife and suggested casually, and people took it seriously. interjected: "Did you say that you are not interested in the work of the supply and marketing cooperative, Jiaojiao said that the conductor is not restricted, has a long vacation, and can run over to play all over the country." Then, you said that's it, Jiaojiao said that it looked like a good prospect, but I don't know what else is secretly here, let you go home and ask your uncle and aunt, and then decide? Right? ”

Zhao Yuanyuan's eyes widened, and then nodded, "No wonder you are stronger than me, and you will deceive Jiaojiao first." I don't like working in the supply and marketing cooperative, I just go to work all day, it's no different from going to school, and the conductor can go to various places at any time. ”

Zhang Guoqing smiled and said, "Then you have to determine where the disadvantages of this profession are?" For example, if the passengers make it difficult, you have to endure it; For example, in the dead of night on the train, the conductor asks you to clean up, and you have to endure it; For example, if a child urinate and wants you to clean up, you have to endure it.

Conductor, what do you do? To put it mildly is to serve people, unless you can be a radio announcer on the train. Even the conductor has to clean up from time to time. Are you sure you want this job?

From here to the capital 3 days and two nights, is the shortest journey, if you get to SH it is really seven or eight days, then stay on the car has been cleaning, has been in a noisy environment, are you sure you want to be a conductor? These are still visible disadvantages, as well as the filth in the secret, and insiders will not disclose them. Are you sure you're going to do it?

In fact, the most unconstrained and promising future is to study to death. After two years of study, you will go to college with Jiaojiao. You can easily sit in a university classroom, or you can easily sit in an office when you are working, and you can also manage others. Think about it again, don't you? ”

Zhao Yuanyuan listened to it and looked at him in disbelief, then at her father, and when she saw her father nodding her head, she immediately cried with a sad face, "Then I'm still thinking about it." Scratching his head, he went out sullenly with a cloth bag.

Zhao Dashan listened to Zhang Guoqing's words and looked at him thoughtfully, "Xiao Wu, if you were me, how would you arrange her except for going to college?" Tell your uncle about it. ”

"Uncle, don't be kidding, this job is related to the future of the future."

"It's okay, you can analyze the profession suitable for girls, Uncle found a supply and marketing cooperative, a textile factory, and a art troupe. College she's not this piece of material, hopeless. As soon as you graduate from high school, you have to arrange it, or you have to wait for the opportunity. ”

Zhang Guoqing glanced at Zhou Xiaozheng, saw that he nodded slightly, and then said: "Uncle, then I'll tell me what I think, you just treat me as a joke, don't really rest assured." ”

After thinking for a moment, he said, "A girl's work depends on how much you want from her. If you want her to be safe and stable, then the supply and marketing cooperatives and textile factories are good, and after graduating from high school and finding someone, the assigned work will not be manual work. This is the safest way to go.

If you think that she can make a name for herself in the future, with her character, as long as she is careful about some sensitive topics and avoids people with a heart, then it is very good to choose the women's federation, be idle and decent, deal with things more, understand many people's feelings, and it will also be good for her future, if she has outstanding ability, high Chinese, there is hope for promotion if she has advantages, you can squeeze into the administration, you can retreat and advance. This era is the best era, the power of the Women's Federation is quite large, and when the sense of accomplishment comes out, it will automatically work hard.

As for the art troupe, she is not suitable. The temperament is too straight, easy to offend people, those who enter the art troupe either have a background or can sing and dance, beautiful girls are pretentious, not easy to contact, not easy to integrate, and then to go in, after leaving the army, they still face the problem of choosing a job. I think my aunt's women's federation is very good. ”

Zhao Dashan thought deeply about what he said, and analyzed it to the bone, it was true. looked up at Zhou Xiaozheng, saw that he also nodded, and took a deep breath, "Brother Zheng, hear it, this is Xiao Wu." ”

Zhou Xiaozheng curled the corners of his mouth, pretending to be modest and said: "Children's families, you just listen to it, and it should be used as a reference." Not worth boasting about. ”

Zhao Dashan gave him a hard look, "You have to be happy, let's have fun." Alas, we still drink bars, and the children still can't finish their hearts when they grow up. After speaking, he shouted outside: "Hongli, let's serve a dish first, let's drink." ”

Cheng Hongli set up the wine and food, and Zhao Dashan first saluted Zhou Xiaozheng with a bowl of wine, "Come, Brother Zheng, it's all dry." Cheers to the brothers alive to meet. ”

After drinking, he poured another glass of wine and saluted Zhang Guoqing with a bowl of wine, "Come, Xiao Wu, uncle is not polite to you, you are also dry, uncle thank you for your guidance." ”

After two bowls of wine, he also opened the topic, "Brother Zheng, I really envy you, tell me why you haven't changed over the years, look at my belly, my figure is all out of shape." You go out with Xiao Wu like this like a brother. ”

Zhou Xiaozheng glanced at him and hooked the corners of his mouth sarcastically, "You are in your stomach with oil and water, which means that you have a comfortable life." The red pepper raises you in a circle, this is pig farming. I want to be like my body. You're gone, wait for the next life. Brother, this is Wan Nianqing. ”

Zhao Dashan retorted unconvinced, "You're still young, you have grandchildren, and you are a little old man." Don't be complacent, come back this time and see if you can get fat. When you come back from this mission, you won't go out again, right? You can take it easy, you have a big family now. ”

"If you don't go, you won't take on the tasks that you can. I'm really old, I'm old and middle-aged, and I don't have the hard work of being young. Spend time with your wife and children, you owe them too much over the years. ”

Zhao Dashan felt the same and agreed, "Well, it's not easy for my sister-in-law, you are glorious, and she has been single for so many years." Don't worry about anything else, just this love, you have to treat her well. There is also Jiaojiao, this child, without you by his side, he has suffered a lot of grievances over the years. Fortunately, there is Xiao Wu to protect him. ”

Zhou Xiaozheng sighed when he heard this: "Well, I owe them too much." When I came out and saw the child's mother, I fainted like a child crying. My heart hurts.

When I came back and saw Jiaojiao, my heart hurt even more, and the child cried and said incoherently over and over again, Dad, why did you come back. In my heart, sourly, they all say that men don't flick when they have tears, and I can't hold back those tears. Especially when I think of so many years, she has been bullied by my relatives alone. I can't hold back the grievances in my heart, that's my daughter who is like a jewel. How can they? How dare you? In the past 17 years, I have been careful and careful, and I am afraid that I will sacrifice myself. She really became a child without a father, but she still lived without a father and a mother, like an orphan. After speaking, Zhou Xiaozheng rubbed his face with both hands.

Zhao Dashan patted him on the shoulder, "It's all over, you come back now and be doubly good to her, that kid is sensible, and he hasn't grown crooked all these years." The children of poor families should be given the opportunity to hone their skills early in the house. You see that she is better than children of the same age now, who doesn't give a thumbs up when she sees it? ”

Zhou Xiaozheng raised his head and took a deep breath, and after a while, said: "Dashan, the more sensible she is, the more uncomfortable I am." It's because I didn't take good care of her. Look at your Yuanyuan, that's a normal girl. Jiaojiao is like me, stubborn, I like to hide things in my heart, such a person is too tired to live. I want her to be reckless and toss as she wants. Something happened, and I was pressed in the back. But she is too old and too low-key, so I am afraid that one will accidentally cause trouble for me. A lot of things were heard from her mother, so I wanted to take her to the capital to see. Let her be bold in the future, and let her know that her father does not rely on her grandfather, and he can support her. ”

Zhang Guoqing looked at his father-in-law, this is a person who understands, no wonder everyone who knows him admires him. With this heart, he should also treat him well.

Zhao Dashan poured wine for him, "Don't think about it, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren." Jiaojiao is like you, you talk about making you public, will you? This kid's actions, scheming, and methods are no different from those of you, and that's how nature it is. I envy you, my Yuanyuan is much worse than her. If you want your daughter to eat and drink, she will follow you in her bones, and don't think about it. If you don't go to the capital, you can take her to see it, so that she has less scruples in her heart. ”

"Dad, don't worry, Jiaojiao is good like this. I'm on my side to take care of something, and I can't solve it and look for you again. She is low-key because she is afraid of being conspicuous in the countryside, and she will let go when she goes back to live in the county. Besides, you are back, she also has the backbone, someone to protect her, she also has to rely on, you are her guts. You're fine, she has nothing to worry about. Zhang Guoqing comforted him.

Zhou Xiaozheng's expression softened a little after hearing this, and nodded, "Well, Dad is back, you don't have to worry, just live a good life." Mountain, pour it yourself, let's drink it. ”

"Okay, let's eat the food quickly, it won't taste good when it gets cold. Brother Zheng, will you still clean up the new yard tomorrow? I'll let people help, and you'll go about your business. ”

Zhou Xiaozheng shook his head, "No, the old man cleaned up." So he took some books and rations, and left the rest. I don't think there's anything to clean up. ”

Zhao Dashan looked at him in shock, "I know that Professor Liu's courtyard is ordinary and inconspicuous outside. The set of desks and bookcases in the study is complete. There is also a complete set of furniture in the bedroom. He once drunkenly and secretly told me that he had disguised the furniture. Don't look downscale, it's actually worth more than the yard. Afterwards, let me not spread the word. How did he give up? How much did you buy it? ”

Zhou Xiaozheng and Zhang Guoqing looked at each other and said, "It's cheap." Even the yard cost 800 yuan, is it worth it? ”

"It's worth it! The minimum size of the yard is 600 pieces. It's like giving it to you. You are in a hurry, Professor Liu didn't plan to sell it. You see, his family is not short of money. Both sons wanted this house, and the news was released for the past two days in order to save worry.

He's worth it for his yard. Good location in the yard. The front and back yards are far apart, and the space is large. The key is that his neighbors are all easy to get along with, and there are no messy people. The families on both sides are single-family and have a small population. The husband and wife on the left are at the meat factory. The one on the right is familiar with Hongli, the woman is a supply and marketing society, and the man is in the food bureau.

This old man is very funny, selling a house to look at people first. In the past two days, there have been a lot of people who have inquired about the place, and I am trying to let him sell to Xiao Wu. So Yuanyuan said that you are looking for a house, and I know that the one who is close to the martial arts/equipment/department is also his house. ”

Zhang Guoqing nodded, "Well, what you said is true, uncle." My dad and I went in, and my dad said he bought it for our little couple, and he just stared at me. Later, I asked a lot of questions about the knowledge in the book, and I broke out in a cold sweat. In the end, he directly said that he sold it all to us. It's really picky! No, it's a loss, Dad, it's a big loss, if Jiaojiao comes, talking about the present and the past with the old man, it is estimated that it will be in vain. After saying that, he also deliberately patted his thigh.

His words made them laugh. Professor Liu is obviously a bookworm, and when he met Zhou Jiao, he really found a soulmate. This literati is still nerdy in his bones, and he has to find the right appetite to sell a house, and it's just a joke to give it away for free.
