Time flies, another year has passed, since Zheng Zhendong was admitted to the secondary school, time flies quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it came to September 1954.

It was another weekend, Zheng Zhendong said hello to his classmates in the same dormitory after school and rushed home.

Because school had just started, I didn't have much to bring home, but I just made two servings of nail dishes in the cafeteria and packed them in lunch boxes.

Riding a bicycle, Zheng Zhendong walked to Nanluoguxiang without hurrying.

Looking at the crowd of people coming and going, his face was filled with happy smiles, especially those workers and masters in the state-owned factories, and they burst out with unparalleled self-confidence.

Yes, the country has just won consecutive victories on the peninsula battlefield, forcing the ugly country, known as the world's first, to sign an armistice agreement at Panmunjom on the peninsula.

This not only stunned all countries in the world, but also injected a shot in the arm for the people of the whole country, and the self-confidence of the people of the whole country burst at this time.

The workers and staff members of various industrial and mining enterprises and public institutions shouted slogans one after another to contribute to the construction of the new country.

Seeing this, Zheng Zhendong was also deeply infected, and his mood couldn't help but begin to change.

Deeply understand the words of later generations, "How can there be any quiet years, but someone is carrying the weight for you"

The group of people in front of them are the ones who carry the weight for the younger generations.

Without the foundation laid by this generation, future generations would not be able to prosper so much.

……

Zheng Zhendong rode his bicycle with emotion, and continued to ride towards the courtyard.

When I arrived at the gate of the compound, I pushed my bicycle and parked it in the front yard, and then walked towards the east wing of the middle courtyard.

Before I entered the house, I heard someone talking inside.

Listening to the voice, it is not only his own family, but also the voices of Lou Tan and Lou Xiao'e.

Zheng Zhendong walked into the house and saw that their mother and daughter were indeed also in Zheng's house.

Seeing Zheng Zhendong walk into the house, Lou Xiao'e showed a happy expression on her face, and then stood up and said.

"Brother Dongzi, you're back, are you tired from going to school?"

Zheng Zhendong first said hello to Lou Tan's family, and then said to Lou Xiao'e.

"Sister Xiao'e, thank you for your concern, it's okay to go to school, it's not particularly tiring!

Recently, I have been attending school for a while, and I will go to work in the factory next month, so I should be tired! ”

"Uh-huh! That's right, but why do you have to work in a factory if you're not studying? ”

Zheng Zhendong picked up the teapot and explained while pouring water.

"That's the case, we now have a part-time work-study system.

Every semester, half of the time is spent in school, and half of the time is spent in the factory to participate in labor.

Learn some basic skills, which is also to be assigned to the factory after graduation in the future, so that everyone will not understand anything! ”

After listening to Zheng Zhendong's explanation, not only Lou Xiao'e understood, but even Lou Tan and Zheng's mother on the side also understood.

Zheng Zhendong saw that everyone knew, and asked Zheng's mother again.

"Mom, my eldest brother and sister-in-law, have you been back recently?

I haven't seen them for a long time since he and his family moved to the railroad dormitory, and I don't know how they're doing. ”

When Zheng's mother heard Zheng Zhendong mention the eldest couple, she immediately showed a smile on her face.

"It's back, it's back!

They came back a few days ago, and your sister-in-law is pregnant, so come back to tell me the good news! ”

Zheng Zhendong heard Zheng's mother say that Qin Huairu was pregnant, and he was very happy for them, so he couldn't help but speak.

"My sister-in-law is pregnant, this is a happy event for our family!

We're about to import Ding, which is really good! ”

As soon as Zheng's mother said that Qin Huairu was pregnant, not only Zheng Zhendong was happy, but even Lou Tan and Lou Xiao'e congratulated Zheng's mother again and again.

……

After a few people chatted at Zheng's house for a while, Lou Tan's family saw that it was not early, so he spoke.

"Sister-in-law Zheng Dongzi, it's not too early this day, Xiao'e and I should go back too!

You don't have to get up to see us off, just sit down! ”

After saying this, Lou Tan shouted that Lou Xiao'e was going out.

The mother and son of the Zheng family hurriedly stayed guests, among which Zheng Zhendong said.

"Aunt Tan Xiao'e, let's go after dinner!

Look at you and Sister Xiao'e, you are here, and if you don't stay for a meal, it seems that my family is rude! ”

Lou Tan shook his head, and then spoke.

"No, Dongzi, next time, we won't stay today!

If it's too late to go back, your Uncle Lou won't worry!

Besides, the driver and I are scheduled to pick us up at this point!

I guess he's almost there, so let's go out and wait for him first! ”

After Lou Tan finished speaking, he led Lou Xiao'e out of the Zheng family.

As soon as the mother and son of the Zheng family saw that the mother and daughter of the Lou family were leaving, they got up and sent them to the door.

Lou Tan saw the Zheng family's mother and son sending them out, and hurriedly stopped them.

"Sister-in-law Zheng, look, why are you still coming out, go back quickly!"

Mother Zheng saw that Lou Tan's words were sincere, so she took the opportunity to say.

"That's it, Mrs. Lou, since you don't let you send you, then let my third child send you to the gate of the compound!"

Zheng Zhendong did as he said, and accompanied the mother and daughter of the Lou family out of the compound.

After chatting at the door, a Sdipunk car slowly drove into Nanluoguxiang.

The car came from far and near, and finally stopped at the gate of the compound.

After the driver parks the car, he quickly opens the door.

After getting out of the car, I helped the mother and daughter of the Lou family open the back door.

After the mother and daughter of the Lou family got into the car and sat down, they helped close the door again.

Only then did he open the door of the cab, sit inside, start the car, and slowly drive out.

Lou Xiao'e hurriedly rolled down the window at this time and said to Zheng Zhendong.

"Brother Dongzi, let's go first, and when you are free next time, come to my house to play with me!"

Zheng Zhendong nodded to Lou Xiao'e first and said, "I'll go when I'm free, pay attention to safety on the road!" ”

At this time, the car slowly drove into Nanluoguxiang.

Zheng Zhendong waved his hand at the car that was moving away.

After he couldn't see the shadow of the car at all, Zheng Zhendong turned back.

When passing by the front yard, Zheng Zhendong took off the handlebars of his bicycle and untied the two nail dishes he had made today.

Then he took the dishes and walked to his home in the east wing of the middle courtyard.

After arriving home, Zheng Zhendong took out two plates from the cabinet.

Then he poured the dish onto the plate and said to Zheng's mother.

"Mom, try it, this is the food we make in the school cafeteria, it tastes really good!"

Mother Zheng picked up the chopsticks and took a bite, put them in her mouth and chewed them slowly, and then said.

"Third child, I found that the dishes of your school are really good!

But it's a little cold now, and it's not that delicious! ”

I heard Zheng's mother say that the food is cold and not very tasty.

Zheng Zhendong picked up the dishes and poured them into the pot, heated them up, and after the dishes were heated, they were put into the plate again.
