Chapter 443: Sanchuan Reservoir
"Okay, then I'll go over to see you during the Spring Festival."
"Why are you tossing back and forth, aren't we meeting, Yiling is too far away from Yanjing, it will take more than two days to take the high-speed rail, you are not young, don't suffer this crime!"
Just at the end of last year, the higher authorities announced the third major slowdown of high-speed rail...
Worsening drought conditions, coupled with uncontrolled groundwater extraction in many cities, have led to subsidence.
Although the railway company has taken many countermeasures, it has had little effect, and in the end the danger can only be avoided by reducing the speed.
Mother Xu waved her hand: "Aren't you also old, you can do it, I can do it like Lao Xu, isn't it just a two-day train, it's not that I haven't sat when I'm young, it's not a big deal." ”
"I'm not joking with you, if you really want to come and see me, wait two years, and bring Xiaojie back with you then."
Mother Xu persuaded a few more words, but in the end, she couldn't resist the eldest sister, so she could only cancel the plan to go to Yiling.
"Okay, if you don't go, you won't go, tell me about your life over there, if you really can't stay, it's better to move out early, I can help Xuewen and his wife find a suitable job."
Zhang Xiuyan was moved all of a sudden, but after thinking about it, she reluctantly refused.
It's too difficult to settle down here in the capital.
If you can't settle down, it means that you can't apply for public rental housing, and the family doesn't even have a formal "home", and there is no guarantee for the future.
How can you live here?
The most important thing is that she doesn't have a few years to live, and the older she gets, the more conservative she becomes.
"No, we are next to the Sanchuan Reservoir, and the living conditions are not bad, at least much better than the surrounding areas, and it is not yet to the point of moving."
"Hey, the Sanchuan Reservoir hasn't dried up yet?"
Xu Ma was surprised.
The Honglong River has been cut off for more than two years, but I didn't expect that there was still water in the Sanchuan Reservoir, which is really unbelievable.
Zhang Xiuyan shook her head: "No, the state has built a roof for the reservoir, and the sun can't shine." In addition, in the past two years, some glacial meltwater has been brought down from the upper reaches, and it is said that there are still more than 2 billion tons of water in the reservoir area. ”
"Then didn't you Yiling send it?"
"What is the hair, this water belongs to the state, and several surrounding states have it, although we can also get some in the city, but we can also ensure daily drinking water.
However, around the reservoir, there are many plantation parks, and the city is more or less stained with light, and life is barely passable. ”
Zhang Xiuyan introduced.
This is one of the reasons why she is reluctant to move.
Mother Xu nodded: "That's not bad, in fact, life in Yanjing is not much better, and the rations are not enough." ”
"Yanjing is also short of food?" Zhang Xiuyan was surprised.
"Missing, why not? This month, because of the Chinese New Year, it was a little more.
Like last month, the old man and I only paid 48 catties of rations together, and almost all of them were coarse grains. ”
"There are so few capitals?"
"What do you think, sister, how much ration do you have over there for a month?" Xu Ma asked.
"It's hard to say specifically, after all, it's different every month, but it should be the same, everyone is complaining about not having enough to eat."
"It's enough, I heard that Yanjing's ration share can definitely rank among the top three in the country, otherwise there won't be so many people, and they will run to the capital."
"Really? I thought it was difficult for us to live in the hinterland. Zhang Xiuyan sighed.
"How can it be, there is not enough food in the whole country right now."
……
At six o'clock in the afternoon, Xu Dong and others returned with a full load.
Throughout the afternoon, the group visited the zoo and botanical garden, walked the pedestrian street, and finally watched a movie.
Di Jie was very excited, she finally found a little bit of life in her memory, compared to the colorful Yanjing, her hometown seemed too monotonous.
Zhang Xiuyan took the big bag in her granddaughter's hand.
"How did you buy so many things? Spend money recklessly! ”
"It's all clothes and knick-knacks, and it doesn't cost much." Yang Lina replied with a smile.
Mother Xu walked out of the kitchen: "Hurry up and clean up, I ordered noodles, and we'll start eating later." ”
"Don't you wait for Lao Xu?"
Zhang Xiuyan reminded.
"It's okay, you eat yours, he won't get off work until seven or eight o'clock, I left him noodles, and it will be hot then." Xu Ma explained.
"My sister-in-law is too hard."
"He asked for it, don't feel sorry for him."
Xu Ma said that, but she still cares about her wife very much in life, she usually doesn't talk about three meals a day, and there are supplements every other day, and the relationship between the two is good!
Zhang Xiuyan shook her head and didn't say anything more.
She pulled her eldest granddaughter back to the bedroom: "Xiaojie, grandma has something to tell you." ”
Di Jie put down the bag in her hand and looked at her grandmother with a puzzled expression.
"Grandma told your aunt in the afternoon, and she promised to help you find a job."
"Really? That's great. ”
Di Jie jumped three feet high.
"Slow down, your aunt also said that if you want to continue your education, she can help you find a better technical school in the capital."
Di Jie hurriedly shook her head: "Grandma, I want to go to work, I want to enter the factory when I come out of the technical school, I might as well work now!" ”
"It never hurts to learn more, you're too young." Zhang Xiuyan chattered.
"Milk, I can learn knowledge when I come out to work, and I can also get paid, why not do it!"
Zhang Xiuyan sighed: "Grandma can't say anything about you, you have to think about it yourself, the work is very hard." ”
"Milk, I'm not afraid of hardship."
Looking at her granddaughter's tanned face, Zhang Xiuyan nodded subconsciously, although this child is not good at school, he can indeed endure hardships.
"Okay, let's go find your little aunt and see what she arranges for you."
"Thank you, grandma."
Di Jie stepped forward and hugged her grandmother.
"Say thank you to grandma, grandma will go back the day after tomorrow, you have to take good care of yourself here, if you have difficulties, you must tell your little aunt, don't die alone."
Zhang Xiuyan admonished.
"I will, Grandma."
"Also, if your aunt wants you to live at home, you must refuse, now it's not as good as before, no one's life is easy, we can't live in vain."
Di Jie nodded: "I made a note, of course it would be best if I could live in a dormitory, and if there was no dormitory, I would rent a house by myself." ”
"Let your aunt help you find a house nearby, you don't have to worry about the rent, wait for grandma to get you 10,000 yuan."
"No, grandma, I have my own money."
Zhang Xiuyan shook her head: "Renting an expensive house here in Yanjing, what can you do with a few thousand yuan?" Keep it for yourself as pocket money, don't be too economical in your daily life. ”
"Grandma...... You're so nice! ”
Zhang Xiuyan touched her eldest granddaughter's bare head: "I heard your little aunt say that Yanjing is not very short of water, so don't cut your hair in the future, just like your sister Lingling, take care of your long hair." ”
The eldest granddaughter will be able to get married in a few years, and if you have beautiful hair, you can find a better partner, which is still worth the investment.
