As soon as she entered the house, Ye Lifang threw the little grandson in her hand to Zhou Ping, and then said excitedly: "When did you come back? Let mom see it!"
Before Zhou Yang could speak, his mother said again: "I have lost weight and become darker!"
Hearing this, Zhou Yang couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
Every time we met, my mother would always say these words. He was so easy to tan when he was sitting in an office.
Besides, although the location of Babaoliang Village is a little remote, the food in the unit is really good. Zhou Yang feels that he has gained a lot of weight this year, how could he have lost weight.
But just like your mother thinks you are cold, sometimes your mother will also think you are dark and thin!
"Mom, I'm more than 5 pounds heavier than last year during the Chinese New Year!"
"Really? I didn't see it!"
Then, Ye Lifang seemed to remember something, and then asked: "I said in the newspaper that Xiaowei was admitted to college and won the top scorer in the college entrance examination in Saibei Province. Is it true?"
"Of course it's true, and she passed the physical examination successfully. If there are no problems in the political examination, she can go to college!" Zhou Yang said with a smile.
"Oh, there is smoke coming out of our ancestral graves, and a provincial champion has come out. What a great thing!" said the mother excitedly.
"The reason why there is smoke coming out of the ancestral graves is mainly because the younger brothers and sisters work hard enough and are motivated enough!" Zhou Ping said with a smile.
"Yes, yes, and our Xiaoyang has good taste. He is the only female champion in the province to be married to her home. It's amazing!"
At this time, my sister-in-law asked: "Xiao Yang, which school have my siblings enrolled in? Is it from our capital city?"
"Department of Physics, Keisei University!"
"Yeah, then aren't we alumni from now on?" Tana said happily.
"Yes, when Xiaowei comes to the capital, please ask my sister-in-law to take more photos of her!" Zhou Yang said.
"It should be..."
Before she finished speaking, her mother said again: "By the way, why didn't you take the college entrance examination this year? If you can come back with the top prize, wouldn't our family have two top picks at once?"
Zhou Yang smiled and said: "Mom, even if I get admitted to college, I don't have time to go to college, so why bother taking up places for others to go to school!"
"Oh well!"
As he spoke, Zhou Ping handed the bankbook in his hand to his mother.
Ye Lifang looked at her eldest son and asked, "Where did you get the bankbook?"
With that said, he opened the folder.
"Bata!"
With just one glance, the bankbook in Ye Lifang's hand fell to the ground, and then she looked at her eldest son in shock.
Seeing this, Zhou Yang hurriedly picked up the passbook that fell on the ground, and at the same time explained to his mother in detail the origin of the money in the passbook.
When she learned that the money was paid by her eldest son for compiling college entrance examination materials, she was completely confused.
This is more than 40,000 yuan!
Even if she now resumes her previous salary and can receive a salary of more than 80 yuan a month, it will only be around 1,000 yuan a year.
If the 40,000 yuan were calculated based on her salary, she would have to go without food or drink for more than 40 years.
Unexpectedly, the eldest son earned it back just by writing a pen. More importantly, I heard from the younger son that the money was not a one-time deal, but would come every year in the future.
Originally, she was a little worried about her eldest son and daughter-in-law. After all, they have not graduated from college yet. Their daily life relies entirely on subsidies from the school and they live very frugally.
Furthermore, she also knew that her eldest son had been favored by others when he was working in the queue in Ejina. As a result, his benefactor died in an accident, leaving only four young children.
Therefore, in the past few years, the eldest son has sent some money and supplies to that family every month to prevent the benefactor's children from lacking food and clothing.
Under such circumstances, the eldest son and daughter-in-law lived a tight life.
But with this money, you no longer have to worry about money!
After the excitement, the mother asked Zhou Yang about Bao'er and the two little guys.
When she learned that her family would return to Beijing to celebrate the New Year this year, her mother was very happy. She immediately discussed it with her sister-in-law and went to buy new year's goods in the afternoon...
...........
afternoon!
After eating, Zhou Yang declined the attempts of his mother and brother-in-law to stay and left home again.
It is estimated that Minister Xu should have returned from the Imperial City, and he should go to find out the news.
This matter should be resolved as soon as possible, and he also wanted to return to Babaoliang Village as soon as possible.
After settling things in the village, he also wanted to come back early to celebrate the New Year.
As soon as Zhou Yang and Liu Yunlong returned to the guest house of the Ministry of Commerce, they heard Xu Linfang knocking on the door and walking in.
Then he told them the news that Lu Zhengjun came here to look for them just now, but he was not there.
So Lu Zhengjun left a message to Xu Linfang, asking her to tell him when Zhou Yang came back and ask him to go to the office building in front of him as soon as possible to find him. It was urgent!
Zhou Yang did not dare to neglect after hearing this, and immediately walked towards the office building in front with Liu Yunlong.
After seeing Zhou Yang, Lu Zhengjun didn't have time to say anything and just pulled him upstairs.
Then, Zhou Yang pulled him to the fifth floor amid doubts.
Zhou Yang originally thought that there was news from Minister Xu, but before he could speak, he saw an unexpected person in Minister Xu's office - Lao Zhangtou!
Compared to a few months ago, Lao Zhang's appearance has undergone earth-shaking changes.
The originally patched clothes were replaced by a brand new Chinese tunic suit, and his feet were also put on brand new thousand-layer sole shoes, but the biggest change was his face.
Before, he was plagued by diseases, his face was old, and his hair had all turned white.
But now his face was rosy, and there was some flesh on his thin cheeks. He looked much younger, completely different from how he looked in the village.
Seeing Zhou Yang looking at him with a shocked expression, Lao Zhangtou smiled and said, "Hey, I haven't seen you for a few months, I don't know you anymore!"
Zhou Yang came back to his senses immediately and said happily: "Why do you always come here?"
"Haha, I heard that Lao Xu said you were coming, so I came here!"
Then Lao Zhang said again: "How is it? Are you still used to it here?"
"It's okay. I'm a native of the capital, so there's nothing I'm not used to!" Zhou Yang said.
"Haha, I forgot about that!"
After saying that, Lao Zhang took Zhou Yang and left Minister Xu's office.
Coming downstairs, Lao Zhang took Zhou Yang and Liu Yunlong to a Volga car.
Then the car started and drove out of the Commercial Department!
After driving around the city, the car finally arrived in Xicheng District and drove into the yard of a large unit.
When he entered the door just now, Zhou Yang glanced casually and noticed the "National Education Commission" wooden sign hanging at the door.
Obviously, this is Lao Zhang's territory.
After getting off the car, Lao Zhang took Zhou Yang to an office on the first floor.
After entering the door, Lao Zhang smiled and said, "When are you going to return to the village?"
"It's not confirmed yet, it depends on the meaning above!" Zhou Yang said truthfully.
"I heard that two provincial champions suddenly emerged in the village, which is really gratifying!"
"It's indeed a good thing. The main reason is that the educated youth members in our village have never put down their books and seized the opportunity whenever they had the opportunity!" Zhou Yang said.
"Yes, opportunities always come to those who are prepared!" Lao Zhang said with emotion.
"What's your current position? I don't see a sign on the office door?" Zhou Yang asked again.
"Haha, I hired a temporary consultant!"
"consultant?"
Looking at Zhou Yang's slightly frowned brow, Lao Zhang said with a smile: "Don't think too much. The higher-ups really want me to take charge of the State Education Commission again, but you also know my physical condition and I am not qualified for such a job at all, so I don't promise!"
"Then when you grow old..."
Before Zhou Yang could finish speaking, Lao Zhang interrupted him: "In the future, I plan to return to our Babaoliang Village for retirement. The reason why I came to you today is to ask if you will still take my old man in. If so, I will take care of you in a few days." Go back with you!"
"Looking at what you always said, we have been together for such a long time, isn't this an affair?"
Then Zhou Yang changed his voice and said again: "But are you really willing to put down everything in the capital and go back to Babaoliang Village with me?"
Lao Zhang smiled and said: "I don't have a room in the capital, nor a ridge of land, what can't I put on it?"
"But you are still someone who can directly reach Tianting. What a pity it is to return to the village like this!"
"It's such a pity. At my age, there's nothing I can't look away from!" Lao Zhang said with a smile.
"That's right, let's go back together this time!" Zhou Yang said with a smile.
"OK!"
Suddenly Zhou Yang thought of Lao Zhang's share of the royalties, and then he took out a small light yellow cloth bag from his small satchel and handed it to Lao Zhang...
