Sunset!
As the setting sun set, Zhou Yang finished his day's work, and then walked toward home against the biting and howling cold wind.
January in Saibei Province is definitely the coldest of the year. The locals refer to this period as the "nine cold days"!
To be honest, if Zhou Yang hadn't missed his wife a little bit, he really wouldn't have wanted to rush home in the wind and snow, even though the research institute was only less than 500 meters away from his home.
It's not because I'm lazy, but because everything outside the bed is far away, and everything I can't reach is a foreign country. Five hundred meters away is definitely a distant frontier.
In the short distance of 500 meters, Zhou Yang felt like he had walked for half a century.
This is still going with the wind. If you are going against the wind, it is normal to take two steps and take three steps back.
When he got home, Zhou Yang felt that his face was almost frozen.
On the other hand, Chen Beixuan behind him was as if nothing had happened. He was not affected at all and was still in high spirits.
Northeastern people are well-deserved for their reputation for anti-freeze!
In the kitchen of the main room, Li Youwei was cooking at home, while Huang Rufeng was chopping vegetables. The two of them seemed to be in a happy mood, like a husband and wife accompanying each other.
If he hadn't known that Huang Rufeng was a lesbian, Zhou Yang might have been jealous.
Seeing Zhou Yang and Chen Beixuan push the door open, they immediately said happily: "We're back, hurry up and warm your hands in the house!"
"The weather is too cold. Even at such a short distance, I feel like I'm about to freeze into a ning stick!" Zhou Yang said while rubbing his hands.
"It's already been nine days, it's weird if it's not cold. Besides, you should just stay at work in such a cold weather. Why are you going out and suffering like this!" Li Youwei said.
"Don't you miss the children..."
Just as he was talking, Bao'er's excited voice came from the room: "Mom, come and see, my brother can crawl!"
Hearing the sound, Zhou Yang and Li Youwei immediately walked quickly to the back room.
On the big kang in the room, Wu Zhina was sitting astride the edge of the kang, while Wen Hui, Bao'er, Dabao and Xiaobao were playing on the kang. In fact, it was the two older ones teasing the two younger ones!
I saw Bao'er placing a small toy in front of Dabao and Xiaobao. When the two little guys saw the toy, they stretched out their hands to explore it. If they couldn't find it, they started babbling, as if they wanted their sister to give it to them.
As a result, there was still no response, and the two little guys stopped shouting and actually crawled forward slowly with their bodies supported.
Watching Dabao and Xiaobao approaching the toy, Zhou Yang and Li Youwei were particularly excited.
This may be parents, who are excited by every step of their children's growth.
And this kind of joy from the heart, people who have never been parents cannot understand... Have mercy on those singles!
After getting excited, Zhou Yang realized something was wrong and immediately asked: "Where are my sister-in-law and Qi Geqi? Why haven't I seen them?"
"Sister-in-law went to her parents' house yesterday, didn't you know?" Li Youwei asked in surprise.
"I don't know, no one told me!"
"It was Lao Fan who contacted me. He said that your company happened to have a car to Qingcheng. Didn't Lao Fan tell you?"
"No, Lao Fan and Yun Long have been busy getting married these days, and I rarely see them!" Zhou Yang said.
"Maybe Lao Fan was too busy and forgot to tell you!"
At this time, Zhou Yang looked at Uzhina beside him and said, "Uzhina, how are your wedding preparations going?"
"I don't know exactly, he doesn't let me interfere, but I see him running to school often these days, and I don't know what he is doing!"
"School?"
"Well, he didn't tell me anything about his situation, and I feel a little uneasy now!"
"Haha, why are you worried? Don't you feel relieved that Lao Fan is doing this? He has dedicated time to do this, and he will definitely make it a success for you!"
Uzhina's face turned red and she said "hmm" softly.
At this moment, there was a "clatter" of the big iron door being pushed open from outside.
Through the glass of the window, Zhou Yang saw Fan Debiao and Liu Yunlong coming back together, and there was a jeep parked outside the door.
After entering the door, the two of them were not polite. They each found a bowl and drank cold water from the well in the urn for a while.
Seeing the exhausted looks on their faces, Zhou Yang asked curiously: "Are you two driven away by wolves and are you so exhausted?"
Fan Debiao looked at Uzhina beside him, and then said helplessly: "Getting married is really too complicated. I remember when we held the wedding for brother Zhou Ping and cousin Tana last year, it was so simple. What the heck? That I can be so tired myself?"
"Haha, at that time, my eldest brother had limited conditions and kept everything simple..."
Before Zhou Yang finished speaking, Uzhina said: "We don't have to go to so much trouble, it's almost enough!"
Fan Debiao grinned and said, "I have already wronged you and I to come to the countryside, how can I wrong you anymore!"
Seeing the two people taking turns feeding their dogs, Zhou Yang hurriedly said: "You two are ready, go back to the house and talk about this, there are still unmarried people in our house!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes were fixed on Chen Beixuan.
For a moment, Chen Beixuan was seen feeling uneasy and confused!
"Yunlong, how are your preparations going?" Zhou Yang asked again.
"I'm almost ready. I just sent the bride price and various gifts two days ago, and I'm just waiting for the banquet!" Liu Yunlong said.
"Well, hosting a banquet is also a big deal. What do you plan to do?"
Liu Yunlong looked at Fan Debiao beside him, and then said: "Lao Fan and I have agreed that the banquet will be held in the reading room of the school, which is spacious!"
Zhou Yang knew that the two of them decided to hold the banquet at the school not because of the spaciousness, but because of the confidentiality of the institute.
Although he had previously promised to hold a collective wedding for them in the research institute, if it were held in the research institute, only insiders would be able to participate, and even relatives of the bride and groom would not be able to participate.
Obviously, such a wedding was not what the two wanted.
"It's fine at the school. If you need rice, flour, grain, oil, meat, etc., you can go directly to Wang Ping. We own the village's own things, and we don't need tickets to take care of them!" Zhou Yang said.
"OK!"
At this time, Fan Debiao suddenly asked: "Uzhina and Yunlong's wife, logically speaking, should be considered family members of the army. Do you want to make a report to the institute?"
"No, let's fight again after spring comes!"
Then Zhou Yang explained: "The barracks built by our unit now are barely suitable for our own people to live in. There is no practical significance for you to report now. When our family compound here is built in the spring, you can apply for additional benefits with the army. Apply for housing at the same time, it saves trouble!”
"OK!"
Uzhina asked curiously: "Brother Zhou Yang, how big is your welfare house? Is it as big as your yard?"
Zhou Yang smiled and said, "Probably not. I have five main rooms. A normal courtyard for military families should have two to three rooms. The area is up to one-third of my courtyard, or even smaller!" "
"One third, that's not too small!" Uzhina said happily.
Zhou Yang smiled and shook his head. This Mongolian girl was so easy to satisfy.
In rural areas, ordinary people are particularly concerned about the size of their homestead, which requires at least three main houses.
If you build two rooms, you will inevitably be laughed at.
Obviously, in Uzhina's understanding, there is no such concept of such a simple girl.
And while everyone was talking and laughing, there was movement at the big iron gate outside again!
PS: The third chapter was delivered. I saw some people said that the title of the book was different from their own. It was indeed like this. The original name of the book was "Rebirth 1975: The Return to the City is Teared Up at the Beginning", and its alias is "Just Reborn: Four People" "The Irritated Uncle Broke", now titled: "Rebirth of an Academician: Returning to the Rural Areas to Become an Educated Youth", all in order to adapt to the rules of the website, but the new title will only be displayed to new readers, and old readers will still see the old title. .
By the way, please ask for reminders and free "Power for Love" to see if the ranking can climb up a little bit, thank you!
