Chapter 229: Trouble
"Tangyuan, can you eat it?"
Liu Xuefang looked at Li Xing eating steamed buns and asked with concern.
Zhang Jianguo was numb: "Mom, this is a white-flour steamed bun, which is only eaten during the Chinese New Year!" ”
Li Xingle said: "Auntie, I've been eating wotou on the way here. ”
Of course, he didn't say that although the staple food is wotou, he still has milk to drink, eggs to eat, and sometimes a piece of braised beef every day.
Father's liberation package, unfathomable.
Zhang Jianguole asked: "Tangyuan, what do Hong Kong Island people eat?" ”
Li Xingdao: "In the morning, there are shrimp dumplings, pineapple buns, rice rolls, siu mai and beef balls. ...... noon"
Zhang Jianguo hurriedly shouted "stop", unable to accept it: "You can eat these in the morning?!" If you have money on Hong Kong Island, don't you need a ticket to buy something? Are there so many food stamps and meat stamps? ”
Adults are a little sad, since the national implementation of the ticket for five or five years, this thing has accompanied the growth of a generation, and it has become a matter of course.
Li Xing shook his head and said, "As long as you have money on Hong Kong Island, you can buy anything." Even the very poor people in the squatter area have enough to eat as long as they do their jobs well. I've never heard of asking for a ticket to buy something......"
Looking at Zhang Jianguo, whose spiritual world was impacted, Li Yuan said: "You are not a child again, don't you understand this kind of thing?" There must be a gap. Hong Kong Island is a port-like city and one of the world's three best seaports, which is enough to feed the people of a city. What about us? The whole is still an agricultural country, and most places still rely on the sky for food. This is called resource scarcity.
is a very superficial truth, some people were born in the families of high-ranking officials and nobles, and naturally lived a fine life of fine clothes and fine food. Some people are born into poor peasant families, and most of their lives cannot keep up with your current life.
It's all about two words: fate.
If you feel unconvinced, you should struggle yourself to change your fate. What else can I do?
Born in a poor country, you can't reincarnate yourself, and you can't complain about others.
Annan was about to be blown to the ground by Lao Meidu, who are their people going to complain to?
We were also miserable, it was your father and them, who used their flesh and blood to reforge the bones for us to stand up.
Complain less, use your brains more and do more. ”
Zhang Dongya laughed and said, "That's good." ”
Liu Xuefang's heart was sour, these truths were originally taught by her father.
It's a pity that the son's father died for twenty years......
Zhang Jianguo smiled bitterly: "Godfather, I didn't complain about others, I just felt ...... Aren't they all living in dire straits? ”
Li Xing laughed.
Li Yuan was also happy, and then said: "Jianguo, you are my godson." If you want, I can take you south to Hong Kong Island this time, and you can live a life where you can buy things casually without a ticket, you can learn to drive on Hong Kong Island, and you can still drive a car. However, your mother can't go, and your grandfather can't go either. ”
Zhang Jianguo shook his head again and again and said, "Where are my mother and grandfather, where am I, godfather, I won't go over there." ”
Li Yuan smiled warmly: "Then tomorrow you go to the security office of the rolling mill to find Ma Changyou, I have already told him, and he will arrange for you to enter the automobile class to learn to drive." ”
"Really?"
Zhang Jianguo stood up happily, his round face was full of surprise, and said, "It's really good!" ”
Before the words fell, the lights went out and the power went out......
After lighting the kerosene lamp, Zhang Jianguo and Li Xing finished eating, and Li Yuan asked the two of them to go out to talk and exchange views on the two worlds......
Then he said to Zhang Dongya and Liu Xuefang: "After the founding of the People's Republic of China, I have arranged everything in his career, and I will not let him drive all the time." When the situation gets better in a few years, we will definitely have to take it to Hong Kong Island. Master, Sister Xuefang, you are also ......"
Zhang Dongya shook his head and said, "Where are I going with a handful of old bones?" Founding...... It's really going to bother you. ”
Li Yuan smiled: "What's the trouble? Jianguo is so old, sensible and filial, and it is a blessing to have such a child in front of him. The mild climate on the south side is also good for you. In addition, there are more and more children in the family, and they all point to you to help lay the foundation. Seeing that Jianguo is also of marriage age, his great-grandson can learn kung fu, right? After all, there must be a successor to your lineage.
What's more, I'm building a big manor over there, and it's also a big mess, so Sister Xuefang has to help me watch it.
My sister Lou Xiu and I are also married and have just conceived a child.
The number of people in the family will definitely increase in the future, and there is no one strong person in the town, and I am also worried about trouble.
With Sister Xuefang here, the child will not be pampered and has no rules. ”
Liu Xuefang: "......"
Zhang Dongya: "......"
……
"Dad, you are so good to Aunt and Brother Jianguo!"
On the way from Sijiu City to Qinjiazhuang, Li Xing sat behind his father's bicycle, felt the cold night breeze in the north, and suddenly spoke.
Thinking that when he and his mother were away, Zhang Jianguo, his godson, enjoyed his father's care and teachings, and Rao is Li Xing was much more mature, and he couldn't help but be a little jealous.
Of course, this is the normal nature of the mind.
Li Yuan said with a smile: "I won't talk about how great the righteous words of your master and Jianguo's father were injured and sacrificed for the country, just talk about your master's grace in teaching." Son, without your master teaching you all the kung fu at the bottom of the box, Dad may not be able to go to Hong Kong Island to find you and Mom. Not to mention, in that mixed place on Hong Kong Island, if it weren't for Dad's ability to make them dare not act rashly, it would be really hard to say what the situation would be now.
Drinking water must think of the source, and we must not forget our roots. Your master has taught me the ability to settle down, and I will let him have something to support him for the rest of his life, so that his grandson can have a good settlement. ”
Not to mention, a few years ago, Zhang Jianguo took a group of martyrs' children to snatch back many antique toys and national treasures for him.
Even if Li Yuan lies flat now, relying on those jade calligraphy and paintings in the space, antiques and treasures, even if he only sells one-tenth of it, buys land and houses, and establishes a family trust, the wealth of the Li family is enough to support ten lifetimes of wealth and wealth.
It's nothing to take care of this child.
Li Xing said: "Dad, I know. ”
Hearing the shame in his voice, Li Yuan smiled: "Son, you are your father's eldest son, and you are destined to inherit a huge family business in the future. You have to be prepared in your heart, and your father's requirements for you will become stricter and stricter. Not only intellectually, but also mentally.
But, for now, you're far ahead of your dad's expectations and demands on you, much ahead of your peers. In fact, you don't have to be so tired, Dad is still young and can afford to hold up a world for you, you just need to grow up step by step, don't be anxious, and don't put too much pressure on yourself.
After all, Dad's greatest expectation for you is that you can live this life happily. ”
……
"Dad, there's movement outside, why do I sound like a bicycle......"
Qinjiazhuang, Li Gui's family, and Li's mother were lying in the kang, and they were all about to fall asleep, when they suddenly heard a little movement outside, and said to Li Gui, who was leaning on the kang and smoking a cigarette pouch.
Li Gui "clicked", lit a match, opened the lampshade of the kerosene lamp, and lit the lamp.
He put on an old coat, stood in front of the window, and asked outside, "Who?" ”
I heard a voice from outside: "Dad, it's me." ”
Li Gui's eyes lit up, and he turned back to Mother Li and said, "Quick, the old man is back!" ”
While getting up and putting on a sweater and a padded jacket, Mother Li exclaimed in surprise: "Boss! Why did you come back at this time? ”
The old couple lived in the west house, and the east house was where Zhao Yehong's eldest daughter Sun Yuexiang and daughter Li Hui lived, and the lights were also lit at this time.
Li Gui opened the main entrance of the outer room, but saw that a child and a half came first.
After the child came in, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed on the spot, shouting, "Grandpa, grandma, Tangyuan came back to see you!" ”
Li Gui was stunned, Mother Li's face turned white with fright, she trembled her hands, and carefully grabbed Li Yuan, who was smiling at her, the closer she got closer, the more scared she became, lest it would be empty when she touched it......
In the ancient legends of the countryside, children who have an accident outside will come home to see it the night before they are reincarnated.
Don't blame her for thinking too much, but her grandson has been on Hong Kong Island for several years, so why did he suddenly come back?
It's still such a year, how can it be returned......
If it is empty when touched, Mother Li's heart will be broken, how can she live......
Fortunately, fortunately, Li Yuan's arm is strong, it's true!
When Li Yuan saw Mother Li like this, his heart was also moved, and he said softly: "Mom, I'm going to find your grandson and take him back to see you and Dad." We're all fine. ”
"Boss! You kid, why are you so bold? ”
Mother Li hugged her little son tightly and cried.
The emperor loves the eldest son, and the people love the eldest son.
Of course, Li's mother also cares about Li Xing, but after all, the time they get along is short, unlike Li Yuan......
Li Yuan was not in good health when he was young, and he invested the most energy and care, so Li Yuan was the most favored among the eight sons.
Li Gui was better, with tears in his eyes, he helped Li Xing up, looked up and down, and nodded again and again: "Good boy, good boy!" Grandpa misses you too, and grandpa misses you too! ”
Li Xing stood beside his grandfather with a smile, watching his grandmother care for his father......
He was happy because his father had his own mother's love, and he wouldn't be too sad in the days when he and his mother were away.
Sun Yuexiang heard the movement and took Li Hui out, and when she saw that it was this scene, she was surprised for a while and didn't know what to say.
She never returned to the city, and Sun Da went to the normal school to make trouble with the dignitaries a few times, but after there was no news, the school almost acquiesced that she had died in that chaotic situation.
Fortunately, I didn't go back, although the soldiers in the wind and fire were all driven to the countryside, but the people in the unit stabbed their knives and started to do it, and they did it as well.
According to the news that Sun Da had, Sun Yuexiang's sister-in-law and brother-in-law had already gone to her unit and sued her.
If Sun Yuexiang goes back, the end will never be good.
"Tang Yuan, do you know your sister?"
Li Hui is twelve years old this year, she is very delicate, wearing a red cloth jacket, looking at Li Xing with a smile and asking.
Li Xing's face turned red, and he nodded with a smile: "Sister Hui." ”
Li Hui was overjoyed, and said to Sun Yuexiang: "Mom, look, Tangyuan still knows me!" ”
Sun Yuexiang was not good at words, looked at Li Xing and smiled: "It's so old......"
Li Xing shouted: "Auntie! ”
Sun Yuexiang smiled and touched the head of her nephew.
Li Gui asked Li Yuandao, "What's going on?" Didn't you say that you went on a business trip? ”
Li Yuan said softly: "I'm going to Hong Kong Island, I'm going to see my son." Dad, Mom, Xiao'e left because the Lou family had anticipated the events of six or six years in advance, in order to avoid disasters and not to affect our family, so they took the child away. Before Ezi left, she was already pregnant with the second child of our family, named Li Si, who missed Si, and she was also four years old this year. As soon as I heard the news, I tried my best to find an opportunity to get out. Now I am calling Li Aiguo on Hong Kong Island, and this time I will bring Tangyuan back to see your second elder, and I will continue to go in the name of a business trip until the world is peaceful. Mom and Dad, don't worry about me, my wife and children are over there, and they are doing well. ”
Mother Li was naturally very reluctant, Li Gui could understand, he looked at Li Yuan and said: "You are a man, you are the father of the child, you should guard them." If you really can't do it, don't come back. Always running back and forth like this, in case there is a fork, it will be troublesome. ”
Li Yuan smiled: "Dad, don't worry, it will get better and better in the future." ”
By the year after that, the situation did begin to improve a little, at least at the level of the people, so to speak.
It's just that Li Gui shook his head and didn't tell anything more, he knew his youngest son's ability, and said, "Can Tangyuan show up?" There are many people in the village, but in the past few years, they have become accustomed to Xiaoxiang, and they all know that she is a distant relative of your mother, who fled to the famine in the disaster year. The rice balls are too similar to you, I'm afraid I can't hide it. ”
Li Yuan nodded and said, "Let him play with Xiaohui in the house, and when he sees his uncles and aunts, he will go back to the city to stay." ”
Li Xing made an appointment with Zhang Dongya, and the master instructed him for two days.
Li Yuan's kung fu belongs to Kaihang, anyway, it doesn't make sense to get stronger the more you practice.
Therefore, the experience and vision of the disciple are far worse than Zhang Dongya.
Sun Yuexiang said: "Yuanzi, have you been to see my mother?" ”
Li Yuan smiled: "Of course, tsk, the one who was scolded was called a miserable ......"
Sun Yuexiang couldn't laugh, seeing Li Hui yawning loudly, Li Yuan said: "It's too late, senior sister take Xiaohui to sleep quickly." We also rested. ”
Sun Yuexiang took her daughter back to the house, and Li Yuan and Li Xing hurriedly washed up and got on the kang of their grandparents.
Mother Li only remembered to ask Li Xingdao at this time: "Grandson, how is life on Hong Kong Island?" Capitalist society is in dire straits, so there is no shortage of hardships, right? ”
Li Xing couldn't be rectified by these words, but he was still clever, nodded and said: "Grandma, you are right, there is a lot of chaos in that place, there are clubs everywhere, the clubs are black XX, and there are hundreds of thousands of clubs on Hong Kong Island." However, the place where we live is very safe, and the foreign devils don't let the people of the community make trouble there, otherwise Niu Niu's army will shoot them. ”
Mother Li breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Ouch, that's really not easy. Thankfully, you live in a good place, otherwise it would be really worrying. ”、
Li Xing smiled: "Grandma, I'm not afraid, Dad is gone, and no one dares to bully us." ”
Mother Li was almost amused, so she didn't laugh out loud, but fortunately, she knew that she would save face for her son in front of her grandson, so she only said euphemistically: "If your second and fifth uncles go and they go, they can fight very well, and when your father was a child, he looked for them to come out." ”
Li Gui said: "Okay, let's sleep, the child has just come back, and I don't know how much suffering I have suffered on the way." If you have anything to say, I'll talk about it tomorrow. ”
The oil lamp was blown out with a "whew", and the family fell asleep in a warm and quiet place.
……
"Goo-goo-goo!"
At dawn, the roosters in captivity of the production team crowed.
In recent years, the countryside has not been much lighter than the cities, endlessly cutting the tail of capitalism, and tossing the peasants enough.
Anyone who has a little private wealth in the family is not enough to be proletarian and not enough to be clean.
This situation will not gradually reverse until seven or one years later, but it is still impossible to raise more than three chickens and no more than one pig......
Li Yuan got up very early, Li Xing was still sleeping, and he had been on the road for more than a week, and his bones really hurt from boiling.
After Li Yuan went out, he began to sweep the yard as Li Gui usually did.
After not doing it for a while, I saw the boss Li Chi coming.
Seeing the person sweeping the floor with a big broom in the yard, Li Chi was startled, walked over to him and took a closer look, before frowning and said, "Boss, when did you come back?" ”
Li Yuan smiled and said, "Big brother, let's talk about it later, otherwise I will have to say it seven times." ”
Li Chi was silent, looked at him for a while, and entered the kitchen.
didn't enter the main room, because Sun Yuexiang was there, and it was inconvenient for him to be a man.
For Zhao Yehong's family, the Li family respects it very much.
Without Zhao Yehong accepting Li Yuan as an apprentice, Li Yuan would not be able to enter the city, become a doctor, and would not be able to sponsor the education of so many children of the Li family.
Not to mention, the food supply in those three years, even the place where a large family entered the city and settled, was the courtyard of Zhao Yehong's family.
After a while, the Li brothers came one after another, and the daughters-in-law packed up the dishes and chopsticks at home, and they all arrived.
When everyone saw Li Daguan coming back, they were naturally pleasantly surprised.
But when I entered the house and saw the trumpet Li Yuan, I was frightened again.
Li Yuan watched it haha, and after saying the set of rhetoric he had said to Li Gui before, the fifth sister-in-law who was closest to Lou Xiao'e said happily: "I'll just say, Xiao'e is not that kind of person, there must be hardships!" Take a look, take a look! I have been scolded for so many years! ”
Li Chi said with a solemn face: "Then in the future, can you come back once a year?" ”
Li Yuan nodded and said, "It's basically no problem." In a few years, when the situation improves, maybe they will all come back. ”
Li Xing smiled and asked Li Haidao: "Fifth uncle, what about the eighteenth brother?" ”
Li Hai looked at Li Xing for a while, and smiled at everyone: "Tang Yuan smiled like this, he was like an old eight, it was exactly the same." Everyone laughed, and Li Haile said: "Your eighteenth brother has gone to college, Tsinghua." ”
Li Xing's jaw almost dropped, Li Yuan told him that among so many cousins, he was the eighteenth!
Lehi laughed proudly, "I didn't expect it, right? None of us thought of it! Now you don't need to take the test to go to university, so I want to recommend it. Your eighteenth brother memorized the best quotations, your father grabbed it for a while that year, but he was lucky, when the commune recruited college students, he memorized the quotations by himself and memorized a group of big children, which made the people who inspected him happy, so he gave him the quota to go to Tsinghua University! ”
Li Xing was speechless for a while, looking at his father.
Li Yuan scratched his chin and said happily: "The year before last, your eighteenth brother wanted to get on the train to go around, but he was only eleven or twelve at that time, and he was kicked off as soon as he got on the train. There are too many people on the train, where is there any other place? When he turned around and cried to find me, he asked me to press the quotation there. Hey, this kid, you're really lucky. ”
Workers, peasants, and soldiers were also college students, and the state later recognized them, although they were still somewhat discriminated against in their work.
But as far as the little eighteenth material is concerned, being able to go to Tsinghua University is already smoking on the ancestral grave, and if you are discriminated against in the future, you will be discriminated against.
However, he suddenly thought of something, and said to Sun Yuexiang: "Senior sister, the children in the family are beaten down from the eighteenth to the eighteenth, and they are not allowed to take this road again." On weekdays, if you have time, you can teach them some cultural knowledge, and you have to learn it when you go home from work, and if you don't want to learn, tell my eldest brother and second brother, and you will know how to learn it by beating them to death. ”
The sister-in-law was puzzled: "Boss, it's all like this, what culture do you still learn?" ”
Li Yuan said: "Sister-in-law, it is impossible to go on like this forever, sooner or later, the college entrance examination will be resumed." At that time, all the children in the family under the age of 25 went to take the college entrance examination and go to college. It's hard to explain much about this matter for the time being, and the family listens to me. ”
Li Gui made the final decision: "Then listen to the old man." ”
Li Yuan has already trained fourteen secondary school students for his family, that is, fourteen cadres!
The fourteen children all went to the Northeast and wrote back to say that even in the most chaotic times, they did not stop their production work.
Knowing this, Li Gui was down-to-earth, at the beginning, Li Yuan insisted that the children in the family learn petroleum and electricity, but the family didn't understand, so naturally he said it.
When they had to send the children to the Northeast, there were still many people who felt suspense and couldn't understand.
How bitter is the Northeast, how can you send it there?
In the past few years, I have understood, just by being able to work with peace of mind, it is worth going to the Northeast.
Now Li Yuan is ready to train college students for his family again, if this is really done, then the Li family will be beautiful in the future!
Li Chi also said: "The old man knows a lot, so listen to him." Xiaoxiang, if you don't obey when you turn around, you just tell me, and if I'm not there, I'll tell your second brother. ”
Sun Yuexiang said with a smile: "The children in the family are still sensible and obedient, but they are naughty at eighteen, they don't like to read, and they even go to Tsinghua University." ”
The fifth Li Hai smiled: "That's also his uncle's fight!" ”
The sixth Li Yang said with a smile: "If you really want to go to college, you can fight every day." ”
The second Li Jiang said: "There is a college student in Qin Sanzhu's family, and he can't do it all day long." Before the Chinese New Year, his daughter was criticized by the commune once, and when she came back, she fell ill. If it weren't for the fact that she and you are friends, when those dogs in the commune came to arrest people, I asked me to take people to run away, and his daughter would probably be killed by this time. ”
Li Yuan's face became more serious when he heard this, and asked, "She is a role model, and she has also been received by the elderly, why do you criticize her?" ”
Li Jiang scratched his head and said, "Boss, are you confused?" Those dog things, it's not like they fight whoever is in the limelight, how can there be why? ”
If he didn't think that Qin Xue and Li Yuan might come together, he wouldn't care about this idle matter.
The relationship between Qin Sanzhu and the Li family was not good.
However, after this incident, Qin Sanzhu came to the door, and he almost knelt and kowtowed.
The people of Qinjiazhuang have also become more and more united......
Li Gui said to Li Yuan: "You go and take a look, if you can help the handle, you can help the handle." ”
Mother Li also said: "I heard that the child is not very good, you go and take a look." ”
Li Yuan nodded, and asked Li Xing to stay at home, and he walked in the direction of Qin Sanzhu's house......
……
PS: I took my family out to dinner this afternoon, cover my face, tomorrow it is estimated that it will be afternoon again, I will be as soon as possible!
