"Go home often, find some free time, find some time, go home and see ......"

The fourteen-inch panda black-and-white TV is playing Chen Hong's masterpieces, warm scenes, and lyrics that hit the soul, every sentence makes Ji Donglai very excited.

In a trance, from his 40s back to 19 years old in 1999, Ji Donglai was very uncomfortable, especially when he saw his beloved mother again, his father sat in front of him, although this year was very sad, Ji Donglai still felt very happy.

In the 98 years of the Southeast Asian economic crisis, coupled with the major adjustment of the domestic economy, Ning Caiyun, a mother who is an employee of a state-owned enterprise, was finally laid off because the company failed to survive.

In July, he received a one-time buyout salary, more than 10,000 yuan, and his life fell into a trough.

Ning Caiyun, who refused to admit defeat, with the help of her sister-in-law, got a video store, and took all kinds of CDs from Ji Donglai's cousin in Zhongguancun and came back to rent them, with a deposit of ten yuan for a disc and three yuan a day for rent, and the neighborhood took care of the business quite well.

His father, Ji Ping, took the initiative to lay off his job in the early years due to the poor economic efficiency of the enterprise. As an eighth-level electrician in the factory, he has done a very good job in entering a private enterprise, because his skills are very good, and he has received some private work from time to time.

However, with the 98 years, a large number of laid-off workers began to look for jobs, and there were fewer and fewer enterprises looking for Ji Ping to do private work in private. Not only that, because the efficiency of the factory is not good, the promised wage increase for Ji Ping has not been realized, but it has dropped this year.

As for Ning Caiyun's video store, when he was just laid off, he was the only one in this alley, and his income was considerable. Later, everyone saw that Ning Caiyun had made money, and they all learned to drive.

There are almost six video stores in one alley, and the rent of video discs has dropped from three yuan a day to five yuan, and now the deposit has been reduced from ten yuan to five yuan, and the rent has been reduced to five cents, and you have to pick and choose.

"Son, what are you crying about?"

The fragments of memory in Ji Donglai's mind were integrated, thinking of the next tense days at home, he was not sensible in his previous life, and he really didn't feel good in his heart.

My parents don't study much, but they insist that Ji Dong come to the university, and it is best to be able to enter Beijing, so that it is close to home, and it is easy to find a job in the future, after all, there are more factories here in Hebei.

Ji Donglai's parents both go to work and rarely discipline their children, causing Ji Donglai to be rebellious since he was a child, and coupled with adolescence, he has made his parents angry.

and the grandfather of the family, Ji Heng, dotes on his eldest grandson, which can be described as lawless, and Ji Ping and his wife dare not care about it at all.

After school, Ji Donglai studied electrician with his father, repaired computers with his cousin, and worked as a bricklayer...... I didn't do anything, and in the end I was confused for a lifetime, and I didn't achieve anything until I was in my forties.

Like other ordinary people, he has worked hard, has done labor abroad, and has the opportunity to immigrate, but Ji Donglai, who has no sense of direction, has not grasped it.

Fortunately, his parents never gave up on this son, and finally helped Ji Donglai to reluctantly start a family, and in the rapidly changing world, Ji Donglai's family barely survived.

"Mom, this sounds so good...... I miss my grandfather, and I want to go back to the Northeast to see my grandfather in a few days! ”

Wiping a handful of tears, Ji Donglai tried to calm down, two lives Ji Donglai found that the person he needed to cherish was by his side, and he must strive to live a personal life in this life and live up to the expectations of his family.

"Fault! I miss your grandfather, you didn't go back to the Northeast when you just had a holiday, wipe your tears for the New Year, and wipe it clean! ”

Hearing his son say this, Ning Caiyun was in a slightly better mood.

The huge pressure of life is like a mountain, and my son will take the college entrance examination after the year, and he needs money! The job on her husband's side is uncertain, and the video store is basically not profitable, and if it goes on like this, Ning Caiyun doesn't know how to go about life.

As the holder of the financial power of a family, Ning Caiyun deeply knows that the family's finances are worried, and last year, his father-in-law had an illness in the season, and the family's savings were almost spent.

As the eldest son, when the other siblings are in difficulty, Ji Ping will reach out, and the family has not been spacious for so many years.

The unhappiness of life converged into various negative emotions, although Ning Caiyun tried hard to suppress it, he was still more and more angry, and his temper was like a firecracker for the New Year, and he caught fire when he encountered fire.

"I joined the regiment first and then joined the party, I have been on the honor roll three times, the factory director attaches great importance to me, and I want to mention the deputy team leader, and the leader talks to me, saying that the unit will be reduced and the factory will be merged, and I will express my position at that time, we workers should think for the country, I will not be laid off, who will be laid off......

The Spring Festival Gala TV program is still continuing, and the passionate lines of the actors in "Cheer Up" are still echoing, and Ji Donglai can almost memorize this sketch line, but the content is not flattering......

"Turn it off, it's annoying to watch!"

The familiar scene reappeared again, Ji Donglai hadn't finished reminiscing, Ning Caiyun scolded, and Ji Ping hurriedly turned off the TV. Ji Donglai finally determined that he was not dreaming, everything around him was real, and he was reborn.

Ji Donglai also slandered two sentences of sketch content, and even wanted to hit someone, secretly saying that it was so tall that many viewers might laugh.

But the workers who are in it, seeing this scene, will be even more congested in their hearts for the New Year, and want to stop the New Year...... Hehe!

"Come east, go to my house to play?"

The atmosphere at home is gradually falling into solemnity, the door outside the bungalow is pushed open, Liu Yupeng's big head pokes in through the door, and the slight mustache on his chin looks particularly mature.

Liu Yupeng and Ji Donglai are classmates, both parents came to Hebei in the early years to beg for a living, Liu Yupeng is five years old when Ji Donglai is five years old, counting this year Liu Yupeng has stayed in the third year of high school for five years, and the family is thinking about letting each other take the university entrance examination behind closed doors, but unfortunately the other party is really not that material.

Back then, Liu Yupeng's parents and Ji Ping were laid off together, different from Ji Ping's specialization in technology, Liu Yupeng's parents took the laid-off salary to start transportation, and now there are two big cars at home, and life is very comfortable.

The family life is good, Liu Yupeng enjoys it wholeheartedly, how can he have the heart to think about university? mixed with Ji Donglai all day long, and he was a famous second general in the alley.

"Go, go, it's annoying to look at the two of you!"

Looking at Liu Yupeng entering the door, Ning Caiyun stuffed ten yuan for his son and waved his hand, Ji Donglai didn't want to go, looking at his parents' eyes, he could only go out, and he was easy to cause war at home during the Chinese New Year.

"Your daughter-in-law is back, I'll take you to see it?"

The two walked out of the yard, Liu Yupeng tightened his scarf, and saw that there was no one around, and then said to Ji Dong with a smile.

"Who? Jiang Xue? ”

Hearing Liu Yupeng's words, a name flashed in Ji Donglai's mind, and a clear pretty face flashed in front of him, and his mood was instantly bad.
