Babaoliang Village. Zhou Family!
At nine o'clock in the evening, when Li Youwei dragged her exhausted body back home from school, she heard the babbling sounds of children coming from the house in the distance.
Apparently, her man had brought his two children back from the old house, which made Li Youwei happy and grateful.
Since she started preparing for the college entrance examination, she no longer has to worry about all the big and small things at home, including daily laundry, cooking, picking up and transporting children, etc. This allows Li Youwei to review with peace of mind.
Walking into the yard, Li Youwei saw Chen Beixuan coming out of the charcoal house carrying a rubber bucket. The bucket was filled with a bucket of coal broken into small pieces, which was used to light the stove at night.
Seeing Li Youwei coming in, Chen Beixuan immediately greeted: "Sister-in-law, you are back!"
"Well, I'm back!"
Then Li Youwei said again: "You take Tan back to the house first, and come to the main room later, I have something to tell you!"
Chen Beixuan didn't ask anything, and immediately responded: "Okay!"
When Li Youwei returned to the house, she only saw Zhou Yang teasing his two sons on the kang, while Wen Hui was leaning on the quilt and telling Bao'er stories. The whole scene was very warm.
What surprised Li Youwei was that each of the children, no matter how big or small, held a pink stick-like thing in their hands and put it in their mouths. They didn't know what it was!
Seeing Li Youwei coming back, the two little ones immediately left Zhou Yang behind, and then staggered towards the edge of the kang on their short legs.
Those open hands are obviously asking for a hug from my mother!
Seeing this, Li Youwei hurriedly put down the books and papers in her hands and faced him to prevent the child from falling to the ground.
Although the edge of the Kang at home is only one meter high, there is still a certain danger for such a young child to fall.
After being picked up by Li Youwei, the two sons immediately let out a happy "gurgling" sound and were extremely excited.
Zhou Yang, who was on the kang, couldn't help but said: "These two little white-eyed wolves were rolling on me just now, and you abandoned me as soon as you came back!"
Li Youwei smiled and said: "You have only taken them for a few days, but I have taken them since they were born. Of course they are closer to me..."
Just as he was talking, Dabao suddenly stretched out his hand and stuffed an elastic object directly into Li Youwei's mouth.
Because she didn't know what it was, Li Youwei didn't dare to eat it, but asked: "What is this? Why does it smell weird?"
Before Zhou Yang could speak, Baoer said positively: "Mom, this is ham sausage, it's delicious!"
"Ham sausage, ham sausage produced by that factory in the county?"
Li Youwei knew that the village invested 500,000 yuan to build the ham sausage factory together with the county. She had been worried about this matter for many days.
After all, that's 500,000 yuan. Once the compensation is lost, their family really can't afford it.
However, this matter was delayed for more than a year, and as time passed, she also forgot about it!
Zhou Yang said with a smile: "We started trial production yesterday and a batch was produced. Lao Li specially sent some to us. You should try it first before talking!"
While talking, Dabao handed the ham sausage in his hand to Li Youwei's mouth.
This time Li Youwei did not refuse and immediately took a small bite.
Seeing that his mother finally ate his little ham sausage, Dabao immediately jumped up and down in Li Youwei's arms with joy. Li Youwei was so frightened that she had to hold his legs tightly for fear of falling.
After chewing twice, Li Youwei said in amazement: "This ham sausage is delicious, even more delicious than the one you made last time!"
Hearing this, Zhou Yang couldn't help but shook his head. The ham sausage he made by hand last time contained more than 60% meat, but because it was not emulsified, the taste was quite different.
The meat content of these ham sausages sent by Li Changqing was obviously much lower, but the taste was improved by more than one level.
As soon as Li Youwei finished speaking, Xiaobao also handed over the ham sausage in his hand. He was following his brother's example!
"Mom is not hungry, so baby can eat!" Li Youwei said with a smile.
"My son feeds you, just eat it, Lao Li will give us a lot!"
With that said, Zhou Yang pointed in the direction behind Li Youwei.
Following the direction of her man's finger, Li Youwei saw six or seven cardboard boxes placed on the big red cabinet behind her, stacked together like a small mountain bag.
"Are those sent by Director Li?" Li Youwei asked in surprise.
"Not only that, when I went to pick up my son just now, I already carried two boxes for my parents!" Zhou Yang said.
"Well, we will also send a few boxes to the capital later. Others don't know, but Qi Geqi will definitely like it very much!"
"Okay, I'll go to the post office tomorrow!"
Thinking of his eldest nephew Qi Geqi, Zhou Yang couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.
Although that little guy is a few months younger than Dabao and Xiaobao, perhaps because of his Mongolian blood, he grows very fast, and his physique will soon catch up with his own son during the Chinese New Year.
Moreover, my mother said that after the little guy knew how to eat, he loved to eat meat, which I just followed my sister-in-law.
This ham sausage contains less than half of the meat. The little one will definitely like it...
"By the way, the county has issued a notice asking us candidates to register!" Li Youwei said.
"Then sign up. Get all the certification materials ready first. Then let the tractor in the village send you there and sign up together!" Zhou Yang said.
"Well, Teacher Wang has asked Cui Zhiqing and Liu Zhiqing to make arrangements, but some people seem a little uneasy!" Li Youwei said.
"What are you worried about?"
"They are worried that they will not be able to pass the political review, such as Huang Ziqing and Li Wensong!"
Zhou Yang knew that the people Li Youwei mentioned were all educated youths from other places who came to Babaoliang Village to join the team. Moreover, these people were in the same situation as Zhou Yang. They were all implicated by their families.
In the words of previous years, several of their families had problems.
"You go to school tomorrow and tell them that this political review only looks at personal performance and has nothing to do with family status. Even the children of "landlord, rich, reactionary, bad, and right" elements will have the opportunity to participate, so that everyone can register normally and review with peace of mind. That’s it!” Zhou Yang said.
"Really?"
"Of course it's true. You should have read the above document on the opinions on admissions to colleges and universities, right?"
"seen it already!"
"It clearly stipulates that all workers, farmers, educated youth who have gone to work in the countryside or returned to their hometowns, demobilized servicemen, cadres and fresh graduates who meet the conditions can apply. There is no mention of family background!" Zhou Yang said.
"It's true. Then I'll tell Ziqing and the others the good news tomorrow, so that they all won't be worried!"
"Um..."
As the couple were talking, they saw Chen Beixuan pushing the door open and walking in from outside!
After entering the door, Chen Beixuan immediately said to Li Youwei: "Sister-in-law, what do you want from me?"
"Good thing!"
Hearing this, Zhou Yang's eyes suddenly lit up and he asked hurriedly: "Has Aunt Xiulan responded?"
Ever since he knew that Chen Beixuan had such thoughts about Tan Shiqing, Zhou Yang asked Li Youwei to talk to Tan Shiqing's mother about it and see what she meant.
Although free love is advocated these days, when encountering such a thing in the village, you still have to ask your parents first.
Tan Shiqing's father is gone, so her mother, Yang Xiulan, has the final say.
However, after Li Youwei and Yang Xiulan talked about this matter a few days ago, Yang Xiulan did not agree immediately, but said to go back and ask her daughter.
Now it seems that the answer should be from the other side. Spring is coming for this boy Chen Beixuan!
"Um!"
Then Li Youwei continued: "Beixuan, Aunt Xiulan said that she told Shiqing about this matter. Shiqing had no objection, but she had one condition!"
"What conditions?" Chen Beixuan asked immediately.
"You can't stop her from going to college, and if she gets admitted, you can't stop her from going to college either!"
"That's it?"
"Um!"
"Sister-in-law, it would be a good thing if she could go to college. Why would I stop her? It's just..."
"Just what?"
"I'm just a little worried. If she really gets admitted to college, will she look down on me as a big-time soldier?"
"You are overthinking. You may not know much about the Tan family's situation. Shiqing's father is gone, her brother is still young, her grandparents are old, and she has an uncle who is not very bright!"
Then Li Youwei continued: "Even if Shiqing gets admitted to college, she can't go far unless she doesn't want this family anymore. As long as you don't dislike her family, how can she look down on you!"
"Sister-in-law, I really dislike her. How could I dislike her family?"
"If you don't have any objections, then sister-in-law will find someone to organize this for you?" Li Youwei said.
"Sister-in-law, isn't she busy preparing for the exam during this period? Will it affect her..."
"It's okay, you can get engaged first, and we'll set a date for the wedding later!" Li Youwei said.
"Okay, then I'll trouble my sister-in-law!"
"No trouble..."
