Chapter 517 Sisters Educated Youth 39


Sitting on the warm Kang, the dishes for the New Year's Eve dinner are definitely richer than at home. We are all young people and educated youth from the same province.

In this place in the Northeast, everyone can be called a fellow countryman. When I spent the New Year alone for the first time, I always felt a little sad.

While talking, I began to recall how we celebrated the New Year at home. Slowly I didn’t know who took the lead, and tears flowed down uncontrollably.

Feng Dan also burst into tears. When Shen Jie saw that the three girls were crying, of course she had to cry, and her tears also flowed out.

“I don’t know how long we will stay here.” They are not old educated youths. If they were not forced to become educated youths, they would never sign up.

They are not Shen Jie, who knows that they will return to the city one by one in the near future and can catch up with the college entrance examination.

“I don’t really want to go back to the city, I just miss my grandparents, my parents.” Wang Hui’s family is an ordinary worker.

There are many brothers and sisters in the family, and housing is tight. If he is not an educated youth, he will have nothing to do at home, which will increase the burden.

Being an educated youth here in the Northeast means you have an income, can eat enough, and can occasionally mail something back, which can reduce the burden on your family.

This was the first time that Zhao Na heard that someone did not want to return to the city. She looked at him in surprise, "You, you don't want to go back to the city?"

Wang Hui smiled bitterly, "Who doesn't want to go back to the city? Of course I want to go back to the city, but if I go back, where will I live?"

"I don't have a job either." Although the old man has a job, he will never do it. Let him take over.

In addition to the fact that the family's income will be significantly reduced, there is also the fact that he is not his parents' favorite child.

Although Wei Zhiqing's family only has three brothers and sisters, there is an eldest brother who is highly valued by the elders, and a younger girl who is smart, beautiful, sweet-tongued, and can make the elders happy.

As the second eldest child, Wei Zhiqing’s position in the family is very embarrassing. “It’s the same in my family.”

"If my sister doesn't want my mother's job, it will be given to my sister-in-law." Wei Zhiqing occasionally mails things to his family.

But there weren't many mails, and he knew that no matter how many were mailed, his parents wouldn't take them to heart, they would just think this is what they should be.

Sometimes people still have to be selfish, and it is really good to be good to yourself. Wei Zhiqing looked at Wang Hui coldly and saw that he often mailed things to his family.

At first he would try to persuade someone, but later he was no longer too lazy to do so. Some people just wouldn’t look back until they hit the wall.

“Why would I rather give my job to your sister or your sister-in-law than to you?” Wang Hui didn’t understand, “Is it your dad’s job?”

"That's for the eldest grandson. When my father retires, my brother's eldest son can almost go to work." Wei Zhiqing felt very bad when he remembered what he heard his parents talking about before.

He once thought he was asleep, otherwise how could he hear such words.

A series of things that happened at home later made him realize that if the family was destined to give up a child, he would be the one to give up.

If it weren’t for the influence, he really didn’t want to mail anything to his family.

Shen Jie often mails things to her family, but everyone knows that her family also often mails her money, so no one would call him stupid.

Wei Zhiqing thought of the letter he received years ago, and was really angry about the content in the letter.

Rao has made enough psychological preparations, but when faced with it directly, he is always in a bad mood.

He said that the things he mailed back were so-so, and asked why there was no meat, and asked him to remember to mail back bacon, dried fish, etc.

Of course, it would also be great if there are rice, corn and other things. In short, the more things, the better.

Other than this, I did not mail a penny to him, as if he was a rich man and should contribute to his family.

Wei Zhiqing felt very tired and had been holding it in his stomach for a long time. Now that he had drunk some wine, he couldn't control his emotions. After telling the content of the letter from home, Wang Hui knew that there was a letter from Wei Zhiqing's home two years ago. Then he looked very unhappy and knew that something must have happened.

But I didn’t expect that the matter was not as big as usual. “They, do they think we have a lot of income?”

“Isn’t it just a lot? Tell me to tell my family. Mailing ten or eight pounds of meat, mailing hundreds of pounds of rice."

"It's okay if they want it, just give me money," Wei Zhiqing said angrily, "I can do things like mushrooms that are free of charge. Mail it back appropriately.”

It is impossible to give more. Is there no charge for postage, and these things are mailed back? I think they should be given away, so as to pave the way for the eldest brother to rise.

Take his money and things to pave the way for his eldest brother and let him get promoted, then turn around and say how he has no future and is not as promising as his eldest brother.

Having done such a stupid thing once or twice is enough, no one will continue to do it stupidly.

As he listened, Wang Hui couldn't help but look a little embarrassed. Just now he was comforting people, but slowly, he really couldn't comfort people.

He discovered that the content of the letter written by his parents was actually similar to the content of the letter from Wei Zhiqing's parents.

It's just that they spoke more implicitly, saying that the family had a large population, insufficient material supplies, etc., and they just cried and complained about how difficult it was for the family.

But is it easy for him in the Northeast? It’s not easy either. I have to go to work every day and do all kinds of busy work.

After work, I have to go to the mountains to pick mushrooms and get firewood. Otherwise, I don’t know how to survive the long winter.

It’s really as hard as it takes, not to mention that he has to save money and buy things to mail to his family.

The family just wrote in the letter how good he was and how he was a filial son to his parents, but there was not a penny in the mail.

Is the family really so financially stressed? Recalling what Wei Zhiqing had said to him before, Wang Hui took a sip of wine and said, "It's the same in my family."

Zhao Na and Zhao Jia didn't want to say more at first. They always felt that with Shen Jie as a comparison, they would be disappointed if they said it. People see jokes.

What they didn't expect was that not every parent would be like Shen Jie's parents.

Shen Jie knew this at all. Even though they had a good relationship and were neighbors, there were some things they would not say out loud.

Zhao Yu actually brings out the wine, not only because he misses his grandparents, but also because he misses the family back then, when everyone didn’t have so many conflicts.

Ever since the cousins ​​grew up, their relationship has become tense. Not to mention helping each other and not inserting a knife in the back, they are already very brotherly.

The more he drank, the worse his mood became. After listening to Wei Zhiqing and others talking about their family affairs, he couldn't help crying.

Although he didn't say anything, to make a man cry like this is definitely because he has something on his mind, and it's not a trivial matter.

Shen Jie did not expect that Zhao Yu, who had just lowered his head to drink without even crying, would burst into tears and then lead the rest of the people to cry.

She and Huo Lei were the only ones at the dinner table who did not cry. They looked at each other helplessly, "What should we do."

If there were only one or two, we could help them go back to rest, but now they are the only two who are not crying.

After thinking for a while, "Forget it, let them cry."

"The food is cold, reheat it."

"It's New Year's Eve dinner anyway, we will eat until the first day of the new year That’s fine, let’s just treat it as a night vigil.”

Not to mention resting on the first day of the new year, anyway, there is no work to do in the winter in the Northeast, so as long as there is no trouble, the leaders will not care. (End of chapter)
