Chapter 36 Temples
Fusheng heard that the old man was going to talk to him, so he hurriedly stood up and followed him to the back room. In his impression, there are not many opportunities for the old man and him to talk about things, let alone after so many years. The old man is a person who does not smile, and what Fusheng hears in front of him is mostly some life insights, but this is not to say that he does not care about his children. I think that at the beginning, Xinlan and Fusheng came together, if it weren't for the persistence of the two and the firm support of the old lady, I am afraid it may not be possible, the reason is that he cares too much about his child's future.
The two came to the back room, and Fusheng made tea for the old man, and then sat down with him. The old man used the lid of the teacup to caste the castor tea, and was not in a hurry to drink, thought for a while, and said to Fusheng: In the past three or four days, you have been to the factory twice, what is the specific situation, and what step has you done? Tell me about it. Fusheng knew in his heart that his father-in-law would ask this, so he was prepared, and he didn't dare to lie again, so he told his father-in-law in detail about the situation in the past two days. When the old man heard this, he said expressionlessly: So, you and Xinlan went to the factory and were kicked by this female director as a ball. After speaking, she paused and said: According to my estimate, she may only know about the situation of the educated youth office returning to the city, but she may not have done it. If you think about it, the position of the director of the factory office in the factory should be a position of uploading and issuing orders, the leader is the person who issues the order, and the office can only be regarded as the herald in this matter, and the following is the specific functional department. You haven't seen the leader for two days, that is, you haven't seen the person who made the decision, you are just talking to the herald, if she reports this to the leader, if she can attract the attention of the leader, it will be a good thing. But what you said was that it took you away, and the yin pendulum will not be passed upward. If so, isn't this equivalent to running for two days in vain, and going like this again is equivalent to running in vain. Isn't that the truth? After the old man finished speaking, Fusheng had to admire his father-in-law's analysis, and at the same time, he really doubted whether he was out of touch with the city. For so many years, in the countryside only sunrise and sunset and return, that has the intention to be here, this sudden return, I really don't know where to start, it seems that I used to ask God to ask the hexagram to run the wrong temple, more to ask my father, thinking of this, he asked his father-in-law again: Dad, then what should Xinlan and I do now? The old man pondered for a while and said: What do you do about this matter, you can sum it up with Xinlan, but in the future, don't make a red face with her, in case she adds bad things to you. Remember? Fusheng listened to his father-in-law's instructions, and hurriedly agreed: Don't worry! Dad, I remember.
Fusheng Xinlan and the two left home to go back to the hotel, and on the way, Fusheng told Xinlan what his father had instructed. After Fusheng finished speaking, he couldn't help but cause Xinlan to sigh in her heart, she didn't expect it to be like this, it's been a few days, it's equivalent to nothing to do, if it's still like this, what year and month will it take to finish this thing! The two of them really didn't know the bottom of their hearts.
Business in the hotel has been very good in the past two days, people from all over the world have filled the place, Fusheng tentatively inquired at the service desk, but did not find out that one of them came to do the relocation like himself, and the hope of inquiring about the news was also dashed, so that he couldn't help but doubt the correctness of the decision to return to his hometown. But what if you don't go back? He didn't think about it.
The two kept in mind their father's instructions, stayed in the hotel room and did not go out again, discussing what to do on a cloudy day. According to Fusheng's meaning, go directly to the factory director on a cloudy day according to the door number, explain the ins and outs to the leader, and don't leave without giving an explanation. But Xinlan remembered her father's words and must not make things stiff. But if you go directly to the factory director, wouldn't you offend the director, and you will be stiff if you are not stiff. It's better to ask her first to see if she has reported to the leader, if not, it's not too late for us to find the leader. In this way, the face will be passable, so that there will not be too much in the future. After Xinlan finished speaking, she asked Fusheng's opinion, Fusheng thought about it, and had no other way, so she had to say: Just do what you say, I hope everything goes well. Otherwise, if we are trapped here for a month, even if we have ten days and a half months, we can't stand it. You say, don't you? Xinlan leaned on the folded futon, looked at the roof, and listened to Fusheng talk about ten days and a half months, but did not answer Fusheng's question, but asked Fusheng instead: If you are really sleepy here, what do you say? Fusheng didn't say anything, he lay there in a daze, and said for a long time: I'm really sleepy here, if ten days and a half months are still easy to do, and twenty or forty months can be carried, if it is longer, I'm afraid it will affect our family. You see, let's start with the cost, if my monthly salary is not affected by the weather, it will be more than 40 yuan, Lu Dong can do his own work, sometimes more than me, sometimes less than me, but also according to 40 yuan, our family is less than 90 yuan a month, two daughters have three yuan per person for a week's food plus allowance, this month is more than 20 yuan, Lu Nan goes to school outside, the cost is high, and the food for a week plus pocket money costs six or seven yuan, so that the monthly fixed cost of our family is more than 50. What's more, you can give him the money Lu Dong earned? It's definitely not possible to be in love, so you can't save a few dollars a year. I can't afford to save those two money in the past few years. If you're stuck in this hotel like you're now, you can't get in or out, or you'll be done in March, isn't it? How could Xinlan not know that how much the family entered was in her place, she could not know, fortunately, the two daughters brought their own food to school, and there was no shortage of grain and oil at home, otherwise, it was really difficult to provide for students with that money. But this is not a trivial matter, it is related to the future of the family, what can she do? Thinking of this, as if he had made up his mind, he said to Fusheng: Let's go on a cloudy day, we must ask Yinbai, or we won't come back. Fusheng didn't expect Xinlan to be so determined this time, and his spirit seemed to be inspired, so he also said: We will definitely do it on a cloudy day.
In the evening, the two came back from their father's house, because they were in a hurry, and the weather was hot and dry, and they were sweating all over their bodies. Think about the past few days, squeezing around, running back and forth, and getting dirty, but the hotel doesn't even have a bathroom. Thinking about going to run errands on a cloudy day, the smell of her body couldn't stand in front of people, Xinlan had to ask Fusheng to beg the waiter to take a few more thermos of boiling water, and return to her house to pour in cold water, and the two of them wiped their bodies together.
When they were lying on the bed, the two of them, who had spent a day on their brains, couldn't hold their spirits anymore, and they were sleepy, and they both fell asleep unconsciously. Maybe it's because I've been thinking about it day and night for a few days, Xinlan in her sleep feels that her family has gotten the permit to move back from her hometown happily, and what is even more surprising is that Lu Dongliuqin, who has moved back, is still holding a chubby little boy in her hand, calling her 'grandma' into her arms!
