Chapter 8: Leaving the Courtyard
"Yes, find a job first! You have a diploma, and no matter what you do, at least you're still a useful person." Ou Mengmeng struggled to pull the cart and immediately interfaced, saving Lou Xiaomoth and Silly Zhu from quarreling.
In her life, she didn't understand people who could live at home and not work. The girls in the Red Mansion were also trained by her to be decathlon, all of them are good at managing family finances, and they can live better without a husband. As a result, this high school student in the 60s was ready to get married and go home to be a housewife? The main thing is that this bourgeois lady doesn't even have the ability to be a housewife. The education that should have been there has not been completed!
Lou Xiaomoth really wanted to fight the stupid pillar, no matter how bad Xu Damao was, she didn't want him to be despised by her neighbors. But "Qin Huairu" opened her mouth, and she had to think about it. Come back to your senses and see that Silly Zhu helped "Qin Huairu" push the cart forward. She hurriedly ran a step and silently helped the cart. There is a decision in her heart, if it weren't for "Qin Huairu" who has made a decision and has the ability today, she doesn't dare to think about what her life will be like in the future. Therefore, I also grew up in New China, and these things must not appear on me.
When she returned to the courtyard, Ou Mengmeng didn't bother to say anything, and began to do the funeral according to the rules of the courtyard.
Finally, Yi Zhonghai brought Jia Zhang's family back, and also brought back the big-character poster and pasted it on the wall of Yijin, but Ou Mengmeng was too lazy to speak, she still had to do a funeral.
It's been nearly six months, and the corpse can't be put away, and the so-called funeral is just to go to the street to get a death certificate, cancel the household, and then take these things and go to the crematorium. I just called the police to show the effect, got a death certificate, cancelled the household registration, and by the way went to the street on the side to do a separate account, got my new household registration, and also asked the street to rent a house. At this time, the street office is also in charge of everything, and they also have a housing management office under them, and new households are looking for them to rent houses.
In the sixties, the city was not as good as the countryside, and there was land in the countryside, so how could you still stutter. And the city really needs money and tickets. In addition, they began to clear rural hukou and temporary workers. The ration for urban dwellers has also been halved.
When Qin Huairu first married into the Jia family, he rushed to turn agriculture into non-farming, so he did it at that time. Moreover, at that time, the household registration policy for children and mothers had been determined, and if she was not an urban hukou, the children would also have a rural hukou in the future.
And Jia Zhang's family actually entered the city before the liberation, but when she heard that her hometown was divided into land according to people, she was greedy for a while, so she didn't transfer her household registration, and let her younger brother plant the land in her hometown, and in a year, her brother's family sent them some food. However, within a few years, a cooperative was established again, and the land became a collective again, but her household registration could not be transferred back.
This is also the reason why the factory just said that she could be dismissed and returned to the countryside. This frightened Jia Zhang's family and didn't dare to speak, if she went back to the countryside, she wouldn't even have a place to live.
So the public security will let her come directly to the street to rent a house in the office, and at this time, a bunch of vacant houses that have just been cleared in the street housing management office will take Ou Mengmeng to take a look.
Ou Mengmeng has never suffered much in her two lives, and she has picked a three-room big north house, which has good orientation and ventilation. The main thing is that the person in charge of this compound is a neat aunt, and when she introduces the situation, most of the people in this house are old residents, and they are not employees of the rolling mill, so she doesn't want to have anything to do with those people in the rolling mill anymore. After paying the deposit and rent, the house is hers.
As for Jia Dongxu, although cremation is not enforced, people always have to find a place to bury it. You have to go to the countryside for burial, you have to buy a coffin, you have to ask someone to send it, the scene is big, the salary is many, and it is time-consuming and laborious.
And Ou Mengmeng didn't think about the burial at all, and after getting the documents ready, he asked Silly Zhu to ask the factory to borrow a truck, because the crematorium is quite far away, in the suburbs. It's really not good to not have a car. The people in the courtyard went together, Ou Mengmeng also took two children, and has been doing it himself, as for this, what is Jia Zhang's doing, this, Ou Mengmeng is too lazy to care, and he can't take care of it.
Finally, the whole process was completed, Jia Dongxu was dragged to the crematorium, and then went to the cemetery to say that he didn't buy the tomb, took the certificate, and pointed to a place and erected a monument. The funeral expenses in Ou Mengmeng's hands were almost spent.
When it's done, I always have to thank the neighbors, after all, I helped them. However, Ou Mengmeng said to the three masters in charge of bookkeeping that they would not accept the ceremony. When this matter was over, the third master also knew that it was impossible to set up a banquet, so Ou Mengmeng gave the stupid pillar five yuan, as well as all the fine food stamps in his hand, twenty-two households in the hospital, two steamed buns per family, and she brought a stick stalk and
Xiaodang, sent by one family, holding it in both hands to thank people.
She did the most decent thing that Lao Jia's family had ever done in this courtyard. Now, the whole hospital, young and old, can look at Jia Zhang's and "Qin Huairu" in two.
And in the past two days, the stick terrier seems to have grown up a lot, and he was with Jia Zhang's before, he was rude, domineering, and a little petty theft, Qin Huairu in his memory wanted to manage it but couldn't manage it, because Jia Zhang's would stop and scold.
Besides, Qin Huairu herself is almost illiterate, she doesn't know how to raise her children at all, otherwise, the children would not have been taught like that before. The so-called fact that she can't intervene is also an excuse.
And in Ou Mengmeng's opinion, Qin Huairu actually doesn't think this is wrong in her heart, in her opinion, as long as she doesn't get caught, it's fine.
Ou Mengmeng didn't dare to think about what would happen in the future if she threw this child to Jia Zhang's family. How did she know that because of an old teacher's unbearableness, she saved the thief of the courtyard back!
Because Jia Zhang thinks that no one else should be better off than her, but anyone who is better than her should be given to her. So before the stick terrier, I also felt that others were better off than me, and I felt that I was the center of the world.
In the past two days, Ou Mengmeng has been holding a funeral and looking for a house, and she has been pulling a stick terrier. Although this child is only six years old, he was taken by Jia Zhang's family before, so the stick terrier does not respect the original owner very much. thinks that this family, except for Jia Dongxu, is him.
Ou Mengmeng has been in charge of the bear child for two lifetimes, is this still a thing? Since you like to be the boss, I will let you be the boss, so she has taken him with her for the past few days, telling him carefully the meaning of every step she takes, and really respects him as an adult. also let him stand in front, himself in the back, whispering to him, telling people step by step, training his courage and his sense of responsibility.
The stick terrier is slowly getting rid of the burr now, because he finds that he doesn't understand, and his mother really does. She seemed to handle it very easily, as if her mother was talking to those people, and he understood every word, but if you listened carefully, he didn't understand it. Slowly, this emotion turned into respect, and he began to listen carefully to Ou Mengmeng.
Jia Zhang was very angry before, but Ou Mengmeng never took care of her, you make trouble, you cry, you don't take the money, you have a half-dime relationship with Ou Mengmeng, she only took half of the funeral expenses, and the finance said that according to the agreement, she could take three-quarters. She said forget it, it's enough for the funeral. So she asked the three masters to keep the accounts and record the total amount of funeral expenses. Let everyone in the courtyard see that she didn't ask Jia Zhang for a penny.
When she left, she only took away her own and her children's clothes, and the others didn't even take a pair of chopsticks.
