In Zhoujia Village in the northeast, Zhou Xiaozheng walked out of the courtyard and waved goodbye to the old lady at the gate.

At this time, there were no pedestrians walking around the village, and those who should go to work went to work, and even the elderly and children were busy earning work and subsidizing their families. This is also why the Zhou family has poor popularity in the village, there are red-eyed and disdainful, and in addition to the Zhou family's room, no one wants to accompany the smiling face and stick a cold face.

Out of the village, looking at the three forks in front of him, Zhou Xiaozheng looked at his son-in-law who followed closely, "Accompany me to the township, no bicycle, just the two of us talking." ”

Zhang Guoqing nodded, thought for a while and asked, "Dad, you are planning to do business, do you want to think about grandma again, I'm afraid she will feel uncomfortable." ”

Zhou Xiaozheng said indifferently: "There is nothing uncomfortable, if you do something wrong, you will have to pay the price." Besides, you have to stay here for two years, so as not to let it out and cause trouble to my family. It's all light, if it weren't for the old lady, it wouldn't be a pity to be shot for fear of gossip. After being locked up for three or five years, my Jiaojiao family has gone to the capital, and they are inconsequential people when they come out. There is a case record, and Jiaojiao can handle it as much as she wants in the future. ”

Zhang Guoqing looked at this daughter with a smile, "Dad, thank you, you put Jiaojiao in your heart." That's fine, it's tricky how we deal with them. Jiaojiao's temperament is too soft, swaying from side to side, I'm afraid that you and grandma will feel uncomfortable and delay in drawing conclusions. ”

Zhou Xiao glanced at him expressionlessly, raised his chin, and said proudly: "Well, I don't need you to say thank you, that's my daughter." Even if I marry you, it's my daughter, we are the closest, you can't. Tell me, how is my Jiaojiao usual? What do you like about my Jiaojiao? ”

Zhang Guoqing smiled when he heard this, and said as he walked: "Jiaojiao is a very unusual girl in my eyes." It's different when she's young, she won't play around like other girls, her body is always clean, just sit there quietly and watch everyone play, smile when she sees happiness, and stare at you quietly when she is angry. I've never seen her angry, or spoken out loud.

In the village, on the surface, she was good friends with everyone, but I knew that she didn't treat those people as friends, and many people were insignificant in her eyes, and they couldn't get out of her heart. She's just out of everyone's life.

I want to find her, when I was young, I was either in the ancestral hall hut, or in the corner under the big tree at the entrance of the village. Just she was alone and stared into the distance, and if she didn't say anything, she would smile at you. Petite, soft as a kitten, skinny as skinny, but she would never be like other children to please her friends for something, nor would she go to grab food. Secretly giving her eggs, only 4 years old, she will shake her head and refuse, and when she sees my mother scolding the parents of those children who bully us, she will look at it with envy and immediately lower her head. At the age of 4, she will think about problems and tell me that my mother can't give it to her, and my mother will be sad when she hears it. will tell me secretly, let me stay away from anyone in the future, don't be stupid and let people take advantage. When I was 5 years old, I would be told what to do, and people would like me.

At that time, the two of us were friends, and she would occasionally secretly comfort me that it would be good to ignore the inconsequential people not to be angry. When she grows up and goes to school, when there are a lot of people, she smiles no matter what she hears, and she doesn't chirp like other girls, nor does she run around like crazy girls like other girls, she just listens quietly, her eyes are rolling, and she doesn't listen carefully to what others say, and she just smiles and doesn't answer when she asks. No one paid attention to her, so she walked quietly by herself, without feeling excluded, and with a relaxed smile on her face.

Learning is very easy, she has a very good memory, she usually reads it once or twice and memorizes it, but whoever mentions it, she will say that she will do it before. She likes to hide everything, she never shows off in front of people, never says how she is, even when others praise her, she also smiles slightly.

After the age of 12, she has no friends, others don't look for her, she never looks for others. She reads books in a daze, reading everything, but she has a good memory, and she is in a daze after reading it. Her life seems to be reading books and thinking alone. When I grew up, I didn't even talk about it, I hid it in my heart. I was forced to hold back a few words, and I won't say anything if I ask again. Never say how you are or how others are. The temperament is very stubborn.,Very own ideas.,Very rational.,Very emotional.。

When I was 16 years old, I seriously wanted to live my future life, and suddenly one day I realized that if I wanted to catch her, it would be very difficult to accompany her for the rest of my life. Her temperament is too cold, too arrogant in her bones, she is also a friend to me, she has never been as shy as the little daughter-in-law in other people's jokes, I thought hard, but found that there was no way. She never invests herself emotionally in dealing with others, and it is very rare for me to be my brother. Her life is to read books except for her grandmother, and occasionally she will chat with me a few words.

When I heard that there was a quota for recruitment, I felt that I absolutely could not leave, and if I left, Jiaojiao would be even further away from my life, and I refused. I ran to find Jiaojiao, in the cottage of the ancestral hall, she was so lonely squatting in the corner, holding herself with her hands crossed, expressionless in a daze, and I felt even more that I had chosen the right one. I didn't ask her anything, and if I did, she wouldn't tell the truth. When she woke up and realized that I was relieved, I told her that I had given up my place in the army, and she was very angry and said a lot of things that were good for being a soldier. It was the first time I saw her angry, I was very happy, I was able to make her angry, that is, I was also the person she cared about, I couldn't help but tell her, I don't want to be a soldier, if I go away like you, then who will feel sorry for her and accompany her in the future.

She looked at me with wide eyes, and then lowered her head and did not speak, and after a long time, when I was discouraged, she told me in a hoarse voice that if she had chosen me, she would not allow me to betray her, and if she had changed her mind, she could have said it in advance, but she would never have allowed or forgive before telling her afterwards. If she had been chosen, she would have been an orphan with no support, no rations, no farm work, and no penniless. She will never allow others to oppress her. Let me go back and think about it and make it clear to my parents. If you agree, you will officially ask the matchmaker to come to the door to say goodbye.

At that time, I asked her to wait, I was so excited that I didn't think about why she suddenly agreed, and I didn't think about why she asked me to come to the door to propose, I was about to go to high school, so I wasn't in a hurry. But at that time, I happily shouted to wait for me, and ran home, and I didn't fall asleep in the days when I came to the door to say goodbye, and after the wedding date, I didn't ask her again, since she didn't say it, she had a reason not to say it. When we get married, she is also by my side, and I will take good care of her.

When she gets married, she will laugh in front of me, be coquettish, lose her temper and play tricks. Her whole person seems to be alive, very brightly alive, even in front of others will still smile quietly, as usual, but I am still very honored that she trusts me, when I am the person she trusts, I am also glad to marry her.

She is very kind, knows how to empathize, and often says that it is not easy for people to live. But she has her bottom line. She is very sensible and generous to her mother-in-law's family, but she will not be stupid and only pay, and she will complain to me in private. Emphasis on affection, affection, do not force money, seem to be casual in everything, but look high. Being a very low-key person, afraid of trouble, not listening to gossip, hating to talk about people's right and wrong, and having a high and arrogant spirit.

People who are not familiar with her will think that she has a good temper, that is, she doesn't care, and if she encounters her bottom line and principles, she will do her best to fight back. She's chronic, but not quick-tempered. She has a kind personality, but it doesn't mean that she can be bullied, she has the means, she has wisdom, knows how to fight steadily, is cautious, and has her principles of dealing with the world. She often said that I didn't care because I didn't care, and when I did, it was very careful.

Dad, you will slowly find out that Jiaojiao is a very good girl, very soft-hearted, and very protective of the person you love, just like an old hen protects a young hen. She has been the happiest lately, she says that she is the happiest in the world, with a father who loves her and worries about her, and a mother who can talk to her. She is easily satisfied and very grateful. Treat everyone who treats her well with a grateful heart. Hehe, Dad, you have the best daughter in the world, and I also have the best daughter-in-law in the world. When Ping An grows up, she will be the best mother in the world. ”

Zhou Xiaozheng has been listening silently, looking at the man in front of him, no, it should be a boy, talking about Jiaojiao, his eyes are shining, his face is radiant, and he has been talking endlessly, sometimes frowning, sometimes happy, sometimes regretful, sometimes admired, this little look, he looked at all the spicy eyes, that is, he was talking about his daughter, he was willing to listen. Stupid, this is the steady wisdom in the eyes of the old man? It's just a dime boy.

"Well, she was just born, and I knew that my daughter was no one else. You don't know, when her mother gave birth to her, those doctors praised the child for being smart, and they knew that they wouldn't come out until I came back. Other children are born like red monkeys, and she is very beautiful, she looks delicate and weak, and she will break when she touches it. Never cry, there are always children crying in those family homes, but she never cries, and when she reaches the full moon, she knows that the diaper is wet, she will hum, and she will smash her mouth when she is hungry. Extremely smart. "Silly dad Zhou Xiaozheng mode was activated, and he had forgotten that he despised his son-in-law just now.

Zhou Xiaozheng looked not far away, thought about it and asked him, "Do you still want to be a soldier now?" You have to know that you have an advantage over others when you go to the army, and there will be no obstacle to your ascension. The road will be much smoother, and there will be more opportunities than others. If you do anything else, you have to work your own. ”

Zhang Guoqing shook his head, "I've considered all of this, but with Jiaojiao and a son, I don't plan to join the army." I didn't dare to let them leave my side, Jiaojiao was sometimes too soft-hearted and didn't watch from the sidelines, not at ease. Besides, if I leave their mother and son for the sake of the future, I don't want to. When you become a soldier, you have no freedom. I work hard for them, I don't want to be in the future, I want to be able to protect them. ”

Zhou Xiaozheng nodded approvingly, "Then tell me why you have to stay here for two years, isn't it good to go to the capital with us earlier?" ”

"There are many factors that can't go now, the most important thing is that I didn't think about going to the capital by relying on the Lin family, I am your son-in-law, but the Lin family is still separated by one layer. I want to be admitted to university by myself, and with a high diploma, I will have confidence. The Lin family could take advantage of the situation, and they didn't want to rely on going ashore.

Many things, you are my father-in-law, you can tell you directly, Jiaojiao is happy, I don't want to pour cold water. If the Lin family really sacrificed, would they appear in front of Jiaojiao? I've deduced a lot of things, and after checking out the 28 packages this year, I understand that you must have done a great job.

I have to think about a lot of things for the worse, and what am I? The sons-in-law of the Lin family are all human spirits. Now I am going to Beijing with you, and I still rely on the Lin family a lot. Dad, even if you are in the capital, I am not at ease. The water is too muddy to swim.

In the next two years, I plan to work hard to learn how those departments manage people, how they think about it, and how they handle policies/policies. When I have grassroots work experience, I will be admitted to university and make some friends at university, which will be my network.

In addition, in the past two years in this county, I also want to stabilize my rear, I did not choose the public/security/bureau, but the military/armament department, just to see the connection between the government/government and the army/team. I hope I can protect my wife and son. Don't look at other people's eyes and live the life you want. ”

Zhou Xiaozheng patted him on the shoulder, "Yes, being able to think like this shows that you have seen through a lot of things." The Lin family is not a big family in the capital, but it has always been integrated into it and has some influence. Mr. Lin is a good person, and his military background is relatively straightforward. But he has an old lady who has good means, and she comes from a big family. The Lin family basically has the final say.

As for your dad and me, it's not to the point of being bullied. Don't worry, your grandfather said what you thought. I know what you mean. But don't worry, your dad isn't stupid! It's not for anyone to move if they want to! I'm even going to come here with the sword of Shang Fang that Jiaojiao asked for. Turn back and hand it over to Jiaojiao, so that she can rest assured. When you return to the capital, you will know that I can protect you, you can do whatever you want, and Dad also has several friends who have been transferred to the administration. ”

"Well, Jiaojiao is very careful about the back steps, and she will plan ahead. She's good at strategy. Since it is requested, it will be useful. It's okay to keep it for us as an heirloom. ”

"Hehe, it's worthy of being my daughter, how about it, you found a treasure, right? Cheap you brat. Zhou Xiaozheng said proudly, glaring at him hatefully.

Zhang Guoqing felt that this old man had done it, "Dad, they all say that a son-in-law is half a son, don't you also get cheap, you see that you have a daughter and you have a good son like me." Plus your grandson, you don't want to be cheap and behave. ”

Zhou Xiaozheng is very helpless, this kid is thick-skinned, so he will climb up the bamboo pole.

"Dad, when you arrive, who will you look for first? Those who came back were Li Aiguo, the county magistrate, Zhang Zhifeng, the secretary of the commune, Zuo Lin of the county public security bureau, Li Dawei of the township police station, and Zhao Dashan of the armed forces department, who were discharged from the army in his grandfather's regiment. ”

"Go directly to Zhang Zhifeng, the secretary of the commune, and I won't go to the police station. Okay here, let's go down to the county seat to see the county officials, and by the way, mention this matter, and give an explanation. ”

"Okay, listen to you."
