After dinner, Wang Zhong rode his bicycle and carried Zheng Juan, carrying half a vegetable basket of dumplings stuffed with leeks, eggs, pork and cabbage, on the way back to Taiping Hutong.
When they arrived at the door of their house, Zheng Juan got out of the car, but Wang Zhong did not follow her in.
"You go in first and I'll get something."
After saying that, he rode away without any explanation, and when he came back, it was already more than five minutes later.
"Juan'er, hurry up and help me."
Wang Zhong carried a large sack on his shoulders, which contained the whole roe deer meat that had been collected. He also carried a rattan frame full of eggs in his hand.
"Where did you get so many eggs?" Zheng Juan was surprised, but more worried.
"Don't worry, these are all collected from Xiaoheishan Village. You can handle the meat by yourself. You, Auntie, and Guangming will eat one of these eggs every morning to supplement protein. If you really can't finish them, just eat them." I can go to Pigeon Market to exchange for food stamps or money."
"This is too much! I..."
Wang Zhong smiled and raised his hand in front of the pink lips, and said softly with a smile: "What does one family say when it comes to two families? Do you still want to marry someone else?"
The touch from her lips was like an electric current, tingling and tingling. Zheng Juan looked up at Wang Zhong and felt her heart tingle.
Standing on tiptoes, tilting her head sideways, she kissed Wang Zhong on the face. Although Zheng Juan was shy, she did not lower her head this time. Instead, she met Wang Zhong's gaze and spoke word by word. He said: "As long as you don't dislike me, I will be with you for the rest of my life even if I am a cow or a horse!"
Wang Zhong raised his hand and scratched Zheng Juan's nose with his index finger, looked at her and said: "The wife I designate will never be able to run away in this life. When we reach the age in a few years, we will register our marriage!"
Zheng Juan blushed, smiled, nodded and said, "Yes! I will listen to you!"
In the room, Zheng's mother and Guangming, who were by the curtain, were also smiling as if their faces were blooming.
"Brother Bingkun, do I have to change my name and call you brother-in-law in the future?" Guangming, a brat like a brat, was making noises from the side.
Wang Zhong smiled and said: "I definitely don't mind, but you have to ask your sister about this."
"My sister definitely agrees!" Guangming was very happy.
This time Zheng Juan was so embarrassed that she hurriedly ran to the back room.
Wang Zhong took advantage of the situation and said goodbye to Zheng's mother Guangming, not forgetting to say a word to Zheng Juan who was hiding in the back room.
Zheng Juan, who had just ran in, hurriedly chased her out, and warned Wang Zhong with concern: "Ride slowly, and be careful on the road!"
Wang Zhong waved his hand, got on the car and left.
"Okay, they are gone, go back to the house quickly!" Mother Zheng looked at Zheng Juan standing in the courtyard like a stone watching her husband, and she was happy for Zheng Juan from the bottom of her heart.
When he got home, he took out some meat and eggs from the space, which shocked Li Suhua. He was afraid that Wang Zhong had done something illegal. Wang Zhong spent a lot of effort to explain clearly and calm down Li Suhua's mood.
The curtain has come to an end for Zhou Rong for the time being, and the relationship between the two of Zheng Juan is getting closer and closer. The situation is very good. Apart from that, holding hands, kissing and other things that a couple can do are tried by the two. All over.
Wang Zhong's life was very simple, running between the Hongxing Wood Processing Factory, his home, and Taiping Hutong. Every night he would read books at home, including those books left by Zhou Bingyi.
There are also the "Military Training Manual", "Barefoot Doctor Manual" and "Friends of Military and Civilian Dual-Use Talents" that Wang Zhong entrusted the newspaper to help obtain one after another, which are known as the three sacred books of time travellers.
The "Self-Study Series of Mathematics, Physics and Chemistry" is a bit troublesome. It is not sold in bookstores now. Wang Zhong spent a lot of effort and spent more than 20 yuan to find it in a warehouse that had long been gathering dust.
There are seventeen volumes in total, including four volumes of "Algebra", four volumes of "Physics", four volumes of "Chemistry", two volumes of "Plane Geometry", one volume of "Solid Geometry", one volume of "Plane Analytical Geometry", Triangle" volume.
After getting the book, Wang Zhong felt like he had found a treasure. He often took it out to read and even read the questions.
After all, Wang Zhong was a serious college student in his previous life. He studied science and had some basics. It's just that he hasn't touched it for a long time and has forgotten a lot of knowledge. Now he has this set of books, plus he is now up to two Ten's spiritual attributes, the knowledge that he had almost learned before, was not slow to pick up.
If you just want to deepen it further, you have to spend a lot of time studying it.
Wang Zhong, on the other hand, had a hard time chewing on the "Barefoot Doctor's Manual". In medical skills, it is difficult to make progress with just theory without practice. Moreover, some Chinese herbal medicines have different appearance due to the year, place of origin, and climate. Not completely consistent, which requires a lot of experience to combine with theory.
However, the symptoms and symptomatic methods of some minor illnesses recorded in the book are quite effective.
Although he was doing strenuous physical labor in the wood processing factory, Wang Zhong still never fell behind in his daily exercise, especially Sanda. Wang Zhong practiced more actively than anything else.
With the blessing of basic attributes that are higher than ordinary people, Wang Zhong's progress is very obvious.
Not only is he tall and strong in the wind, but his body is also gradually getting stronger. It is not the kind of explosive muscles, but the lines are very smooth, the muscles and bones are strong, and the streamlined muscles are very beautiful.
You can't tell when you're wearing clothes, but when you take off your clothes, the streamlined muscles are very eye-catching.
Although there are no Internet computers or mobile phones in this era, and the pace of life is slow, but after having goals and gradually adapting to studying, Wang Zhong's life is still monotonous, but it does not lack fun. Instead, he lives a very fulfilling life, even Wang Zhong There is still some enjoyment.
On weekdays, he writes manuscripts and novels, and goes to Xiaoheishan Village regularly every month. While visiting Zhou Rong, he buys some meat and eggs. As the number of purchases increases, he can no longer eat them, so most of them are sent to the black market by Wang Zhong. , but I also made some money.
In the late summer of 1969, Wang Zhong's novella "Changjin Lake", which was serialized in the Golden Land magazine and adapted from a later film, became popular and caused quite a sensation throughout Jiangliao.
It even increased the sales of Golden Land Magazine several times, and editor-in-chief Shao Jingwen almost went crazy with joy.
It didn't take long for Shao Jingwen to take the initiative to come to the door. He said that he could help Wang Zhong contact him and publish "Changjin Lake" into a book. Someone took the initiative to help, and Wang Zhong was naturally happy to see it happen.
Moreover, he entrusted the matter to Shao Jingwen with great trust. Shao Jingwen was very moved and since then he has introduced Wang Zhong as his confidant.
The cooperation with Xiaoheishan Village is still continuing, but the scale is still small. Wang Zhong is not short of eggs every time he goes there, but there is a little bit of meat. After all, he has to work in the fields to earn work points, and no one can dig into the mountains at all costs.
Only during the off-season can the old hunters in the village have time to go into the mountains and rivers to hunt and fish.
As for Tu Zhiqiang and his friends, Wang Zhong had no intention of interacting with them except for his daily work.
Wang Zhong wouldn't mind dealing with that big donkey-faced man named Luo Shibin if there was a chance in the future.
But now there is no need to cause trouble for yourself because of this kind of person.
Time soon came to 1971. Wang Zhong was already twenty years old and Zheng Juan was twenty-one and ready to get married.
Wang Zhong planned to wait until his family members came back after the Chinese New Year and take care of this matter.
At the beginning of winter, a big incident happened in the lumber factory. Tu Zhiqiang accidentally beat someone to death while drunk. After being caught, he confessed to his crime and was immediately sentenced to death.
Tu Zhiqiang's family and Zhou's family lived in Qianhu Street. They were neighbors and grew up. They had a good relationship when they were young. Although Tu Zhiqiang was a good person, he was loyal and took care of his friends.
But after all, Wang Zhong is not Zhou Bingkun, and Wang Zhong never thinks that he is the Holy Mother and has to take care of everything.
He couldn't control Tu Zhiqiang's matter, and he had no obligation to do so.
It was Tu Ziqiang's own choice to hang out with people like Shui Ziliu. Not even his dead father could control him, let alone Wang Zhong, a neighbor.
He has chosen his own path, and he must bear the consequences.
Moreover, Wang Zhong did not agree with Tu Zhiqiang's orientation, and he basically didn't interact with him much except in the factory.
However, because of the relationship between the two people, the leaders of the lumber factory unanimously decided that several young people in the factory who were responsible for the optical printing should go to the scene to watch the execution of Tu Zhiqiang, especially Wang Zhong. The factory director even called him to the office to order. He understood that others could not go, but he had to go. Afterwards, he had to write a report and hand it in.
Wang Zhong was extremely speechless.
