A few days before Chinese New Year's Eve, Sheng Qihui was busy.

Many people came to him to write couplets, and Su Ge only knew at this time that her husband still had such a good handwriting.

"When did you learn? It's really well written. ”

Sheng Qihui finished writing a couplet and hung it on the side, "When I was a child, my health was not good, other children went out to play, I could only stay at home, it happened that the fourth grandfather was still there, he could write calligraphy, I practiced with him for a long time." ”

"Can the little four write?"

Sheng Qihui shook his head, "He has a wild temperament, and he runs out to play for a day, and he can't find a trace at all." His grandfather wanted him to practice together, but unfortunately he couldn't catch anyone. ”

Su Ge thought about it, according to Sun Weimin's character, it was indeed not easy for him to sit down and write quietly.

Early in the morning of Chinese New Year's Eve, Sheng Qihui pasted the couplet written to his home on the door.

After posting, he sent Su Ge to work first, and then rode to the factory.

After Su Ge was older, Sheng Qihui was not at ease and insisted on sending her to and from work by himself.

Due to the turbulent years, the Spring Festival holiday was canceled from 1967.

I went to work on Chinese New Year's Eve, and I still have to go to work on the first day of the new year.

In addition, firecrackers are not allowed, and folk activities such as temple fairs have been cancelled.

But the Spring Festival in 1977 was different.

This Spring Festival is the first Spring Festival after the end of the turmoil, and the whole country has a new mental outlook to celebrate the Spring Festival.

On the morning of this day, the machinery factory held the 1976 annual summary meeting to select outstanding class collectives, five good workers, advanced workers and so on.

The first team of the welding workshop is the most faceless one, and the three comrades in the team got advanced workers.

Sheng Qihui, Jiang Liang, and Qi Dadi took the stage to accept the commendation, and Director Wu personally handed out certificates of merit to them, as well as a reward - a red plastic notebook.

Do the math, this is the third time they have come to power, Jiang Liang is still a little nervous, but he is much stronger than before.

Sheng Qihui was always calm and calm, and took the award certificate from Director Wu and the notebook.

The audience erupted in applause.

Amid applause, they stepped down in an orderly manner.

When passing by Director Wu, he whispered to Sheng Qihui: "I will go to my office after the meeting." ”

After the summary meeting, Sheng Qihui went to Director Wu's office.

Director Wu smiled and said straight to the point: "Xiao Sheng, there is an opportunity to study in the first machine department, and the factory is ready to send you there." For a month, you go back to prepare, and you have to report for duty in the third year of junior high school. ”

"Factory director, so urgent?"

"Well, when you need professionals, this is a rare opportunity, and you must seize it. I heard that your daughter-in-law is pregnant? Fortunately, the study location is in Binjiang, so it will not delay you to accompany your daughter-in-law. ”

Director Wu laughed.

On the other side, at the gate of the textile factory, Su Ge saw Su Wei who came to look for her.

"What's the matter with Mom and Dad?"

At this point in time, Su Wei came to find herself, and it must have been Su Zhisheng or Luo Xianghua who asked her to come.

Su Wei looked at the eldest sister's face carefully, "Dad said that you must go back to your parents' house in the second year of junior high school." ”

Su Ge said coldly: "There is no holiday in the factory during the Spring Festival, and I still have to go to work to engage in revolutionary production." Go back and tell your parents, don't drag the production workers back, the ideological consciousness is too low, is it possible that you still want to go to the street office to study? ”

Su Wei swallowed his saliva.

Why does she think that the eldest sister has changed so much?

The other party's face was cold, and she couldn't help but tremble in her heart, the current eldest sister is becoming more and more incomprehensible.

"Eldest sister, my parents said that if you don't go back, let me ...... Let me not go home. ”

Su Ge glanced at the watch on his wrist, "It's almost noon, we can get off work at two o'clock in the afternoon, you wait at the entrance of the alley near your home when you arrive, and I'll ask your brother-in-law to send a pound of pork over." My family will cut a total of one and a half catties of meat for the New Year, give you one catty, and we will keep half a catty for ourselves to make dumplings. It seems that the population will increase in the next year, and several people in the family are waiting for dinner, which is really not rich. ”

Su Wei followed Su Ge's words, her eyes moved up to her lower abdomen, and her eyes showed a little curiosity.

"Eldest sister, how many months have you been now?"

"It's been more than six months."

Su Wei cautiously stretched out her hand, "Can I touch it?" ”

Seeing that her eyes were pure curiosity, Su Ge hesitated and nodded.

Su Wei's hand lightly touched Su Ge's stomach, but soon, she retracted her hand.

"Eldest sister, with such a big belly, are you tired?"

Of course, tiredness is tiredness, and the older the month, the heavier the body.

However, the factory is taken care of by the master, and all the work assigned to her is easy.

There are four people in the family to take care of, except for dressing, washing, and eating, she basically doesn't have to interfere with the rest.

Compared with other pregnant women, Su Ge is already having an extremely easy pregnancy.

Of course, she couldn't say that to Su Wei.

Su Ge's face showed a tired look, "Tired, why aren't you tired." I have to go to work with my stomach up, and I have to be busy with family affairs, and a person can't wait to break it into three petals. I don't have enough energy, and I can't take care of anything else. ”

As for what else it is, of course it's the Su family's mess.

Su Wei understood, "Eldest sister, if your parents tell you to go back again, don't go back, the house is in a mess now." The eldest brother came back early with his sister-in-law and the child, the child cried all day long, and the mother and sister-in-law quarreled non-stop. The eldest brother doesn't care about anything, he shakes his hands and is in charge. Dad can go to the factory every day to hide and relax. If only school didn't have winter break, I could have a place to hide. ”

"The eldest brother's family has been back for the past few days, and they have not paid any money or tickets, and they have been eating and using the family's food. Mom has a lot of opinions, and she has started to fall and fight for the past two days. Today's Chinese New Year's Eve, there is no New Year's atmosphere at home, and I haven't even bought a piece of meat. Or...... If you don't want to give pork to your sister, keep it at home. ”

Su Ge glanced at Su Wei, no, when did this little sister become so understanding?

Something to ask her?

"Su Wei, you will graduate from junior high school next year, what are you going to do, continue to study in high school?"

Su Wei's face suddenly turned ugly, and she looked like she wanted to cry or not.

"I, I don't think I'll be able to go to high school. My parents have already discussed that I will go to the countryside after graduation next year. Sister, I don't want to go to the countryside. ”

She stared at Su Ge with red eyes, "Eldest sister, can you help me?" ”

Su Ge lowered her eyelids, and sure enough, she knew that something was required of her.

"How do you want me to help?"

Su Wei rubbed her eyes, "I, I want to go to work in the factory, I don't want to go to the countryside." Eldest sister, can you help me inquire, do you still recruit people in your factory? ”

Su Ge sighed, "The reason why so many young intellectuals go to the countryside is because they can't solve the problem of work. Now each factory is a radish and a pit, there are many children in the family, in order to take over the parents' class, people's brains can be beaten into dog brains. There is no shortage of workers in the factory now, and it is too difficult to get in. ”
