Chapter 26 Past Events

Dad was still thinking about how to organize the language, and finally asked grandma: "Mom, when you opened the Douhua Restaurant in Gujing, were there...a lot of people coming and going?"< br>
“Yes! At that time, there were two bays outside the new house on Jizhawo Road. When I opened the restaurant, Tianmin complained that he had to pick food from home at midnight every day. Santiao made soy milk and cooked the tofu curds. It was okay if it didn’t rain. But when it rained, the fields would be slippery!” Otherwise, I won’t be able to make the first batch of money, and I will have to work until the afternoon before I can rest, and it will be even worse when I have to rush to the Wutong market..."

When talking about these, grandma kept talking.

The three major hardships in life are boating, forging iron, and grinding tofu.

“You told Zhou Zhi that at that time, you often held meetings at the Douhua Restaurant?”

“There was almost no business in the restaurant in the middle of the afternoon. He likes to ask people to come and sit down, but the people will scold him if he doesn't do it..."

Dad felt so tired: "Mom, Mom Please stop for a moment, what does Comrade Tianjun have to do with the family?” He and the old man were gone, so Hua Xuan'er took him to Manzhou to be his apprentice. Later he heard that Brother Cao was going to enter the world, so he didn't know where he went. "

"When you come back, that evildoer is like a beggar. He has been delayed in getting a wife..."

"Then what happens next?"

"What happens next is not just wandering around in idleness. , I saw that it was really not feasible, so I discussed it with Tian Min, saying that they were all my uncles and brothers, and called them into the store. The guy who chopped off the head was very lazy. I didn’t expect him to work. I just found a reason to take care of the food for him. "

"In the end, I only had enough food for a few days, and I just had some meat on my calves. The guy who chopped off the head ran away again!”

Seeing his father’s expression as if he was constipated, Zhou Zhi lowered his head and snickered.

The first time I listened to my grandmother telling stories in my previous life, she looked similar to my father. At that time, my three views were completely washed away.

“Fortunately, I came back not long after running away this time. I seem to have made some money and built a house in the back of Gujing Township.”

“That house is so well-repaired that it looks weird. , Roar! He's still up here as a teacher, and I don't see what foreign ideas he's talking about! What a foreign country you are!"

"Mom, that's just advocating...ism...forget it, old man, go ahead."

"Sometimes you'll cut off your head if you speak too late. I brought people to my restaurant for dinner, and even came late on purpose. I only had leftover bean curds.”

"I'll fry the leftover chicken and tofu pudding. If it's not enough, I'll add crispy rice cake skins made from boiling soy milk. If the crispy rice cake skins aren't enough, I'll add bean dregs. Anyway, pour the rice in and serve it, and it's a meal."

Ha is the Jiachuan dialect, which means Pa La. Chicken Ha Dou Hua is the name of the dish that is derived from the leftover tofu pudding and the remaining seasonings thrown into the pot, just like a chicken jumping in and pulling it.

“We are all hungry people, so we don’t have to be picky. We get to know each other as we go back and forth. The food given to my uncles and brothers’ guests is not decent, so I can’t even accept their money.”
< br>"I guess you, the old man, won't be able to accept it even if you want to." Zhou Zhi said suddenly, causing his father to glare fiercely.

“They came more frequently later on, and the commotion at Datong Wutong became more and more fierce. Several township offices in the surrounding areas were robbed, and dozens of guns were lost!”

"The man who cut off the head just refused to listen to what he said..." Grandma raised her apron and wiped away her tears when she mentioned the brother-in-law who lived in her room. Her expression was very aggrieved: "I said he was in a hurry, but he still wants to quarrel with me. Oh my god. The people didn't like him to begin with, and they continued to dislike him. Show me a good face, I am the one who picked it up, and you are getting angry at both ends..."

Dad quickly comforted me: "Then let's not talk about this, Mom, what's next? ”

“Post-cephalic week The commotion became fierce, but Gujing Township became quieter, but there were some unrecognizable people on the road. "

"I knew something was going to happen, so I hurriedly went to find the little one who had chopped off the head. I looked at the road and said that ordinary people It doesn't matter, if you see someone coming with a gun, just hang a bean bag on the wall nail."

Dad's expression became solemn: "Mom, before you do this, you took an oath. ”

"Oath?"

Dad raised his fist to his ear: "I volunteer to join...the party, support the party's program, abide by the party's charter, fulfill the obligations of party members, and implement the party's decisions...such. "

"It's not that complicated." Grandma also raised her fist: "What we said at that time was - sacrifice yourself, obey the organization, strictly keep secrets, and never betray the party."

Dad grabbed grandma's hand excitedly, with tears in his eyes: "Mom! Why have I never heard of you?!"

"Tianjun and the others were beaten to pieces later, let's go That night, he came to me secretly and kowtowed a few times. He said, Sister-in-law, you are just rotten in the back of your belly. If anyone asks, you will never be able to tell. "

Grandma was also crying: "I haven't seen this guy who chopped off his head since then. I don't even know where he died..."

"It doesn't matter, you can talk about it now." Dad patted him gently. Grandma's hand: "Mom, there will be people coming to your home in a few days, and they will ask you something, probably about that time."

"Arrived Just say it, tell it truthfully, and let it go.”

“Is it too bad to say it?” Grandma was still a little worried: “I’ve seen those who criticized... some of them wore hats on the stage. Party member?”

“It doesn’t matter, Mom, we can really say it now, we are seeking truth from facts.”

Dad looked at grandma, his face full of admiration and admiration: "I never expected that there is an old party member hiding in our family!"

After speaking, he patted grandma's hand and laughed. : "Mom, you've gone too far with your underground work! You don't even know about your daughter and son-in-law!"

But the attitude towards Zhou Zhi is quite different. He glared and said: "You can pay for all this. How dare you not discuss it with your family after knowing it, and just shoot a big cannon without saying anything!"

"Go and write out two articles silently. I want to see what you wrote!”

“Ah! What I write now may be different from when I submitted it!”

"Do you still want to talk nonsense!"

"..." This was fast. It didn't take long for Zhou Zhi to roughly write two articles.

My parents immediately picked up an article and started reading.

Zhou Zhi picked up his satchel: "Mom and Dad, can I go out?"

Both his mother and father lowered their heads to look at things, but his mother waved to him: "Come back soon."

Coming out of the house, Zhou Zhi turned around the intersection and walked towards the county party committee compound.

It was already after eight o'clock, and it was getting dark. When I came to the county party committee compound, I saw the lights on the second floor of the third unit of a building, so I walked up the stairs and knocked on the door.

A middle-aged man came over and opened the door. Zhou Zhi asked: "Uncle Hua, is Hua Ting at home?"

"You are?"

"I am Zhou Yuanjiang's son, Zhou Zhi, and Hua Ting are classmates."

"Oh, he is not here, he has gone to his classmate's house, and he may not come back tonight."

"Then That's great. I'm here to see Uncle Hua. It would be best if Hua Ting is not here."

Huh? Hua Yuliang couldn't help frowning: "Look, I still have guests here."

"It doesn't matter, I can wait outside."

"What do you want from me? Whose son did you say just now?"

"It's about Hua Ting and Zhang Xiaoyu. I am Zhou Yuanjiang's son, and my father is from the Industrial and Commercial Bureau."

Hua Yuliang looked at Zhou Zhi carefully : "Then please wait a moment."

"Okay, thank you, uncle."

Not long after, the door opened again, and a bald-headed middle-aged man nodded and bowed from inside. He walked out backwards, Hua Yuliang followed behind.

"Secretary, you are busy, you are busy..." The man exited the door with a shy smile, and glanced towards the stairs, but only saw the back of a young man carrying a schoolbag, facing the corner of the corridor, seeming to be studying the spider webs there. .

"Secretary, please don't send me off, please stay. Goodbye, bye..." After that, the man hurried away.

Zhou Zhi then turned around. Hua Yuliang held the door handle with his hand: "Come in."

Zhou Zhi walked into the living room, which was filled with various paper boxes. Bamboo baskets, those are gifts from various units and labor insurance issued by the county party committee.

Other than those, the furnishings of the living room are very simple.

"Uncle Hua, do I need to change my shoes?"

"No." Hua Yuliang bent down and picked up the two teacups on the coffee table, walked into the kitchen, and poured out the tea for the reception: "On the coffee table If you have some fruit, you’re welcome to do it yourself.”

“Thank you, Uncle Hua,” Zhou Zhi promised Hua Yuliang in the kitchen, but did not move.

Hua Yuliang wiped his hands and came out of the kitchen. He saw Zhou Zhi still standing: "Sit down, sit down quickly. Just now you said Hua Ting and that person... what happened to them?"

But Zhou Zhi did not sit down: "Hua Ting and Zhang Xiaoyu are both my classmates. Zhang Xiaoyu's mother is Zhang Fangyu, the manager of the natural gas company."

Hua Yu was secretly surprised in her conscience, but her expression didn't show anything: "Well, what happened to Hua Ting and this... Zhang Xiaoyu?"

"They are good friends, Xiaoyu should often Come on? Don’t you know Uncle Hua?”

“Ah…there are many of your classmates here, Uncle.” Uncle, I can’t admit it. You go on.”

“Oh, but you have to promise me not to hit them. If you have anything to do, talk to them.”

Hua Yu. Liang looked at Zhou Zhi seriously, feeling that he had seen this baby somewhere before, and casually said: "Uncle, I promise you."

"It's like this. Hua Ting and Xiaoyu often play together recently, and they are often here, secretly watching video tapes."

"Huh?"

"That's it... then It seems to have been made in the video hall of the Sichuan Opera Troupe, where videos like that are played late at night..."

Hua Yu couldn't help but feel angry in her conscience, these two idiots are not good at learning!

Take a deep breath and quickly suppress the fire: "How do you know?"

"They were still bragging among their classmates, and I heard it. I know that my uncle is the secretary, and I think this will have a bad impact, so I thought I would tell you."

"But you can't punish them, let alone "I said it."

What does this guy mean? Just wanted to give you a heads up? Does the whole thing have nothing to do with Zhou Yuanjiang? Then what did he mean when he mentioned Zhang Xiaoyu? Is it just a coincidence?

Hua Yuliang couldn't be sure for a while. Countless thoughts were already rolling through his heart, but he said: "Okay, uncle promises you. When Hua Ting comes back, I will educate him and talk to him."

"That's good." Zhou Zhi said: "Because I originally thought they should not be punished. They are like this now because your parents, you and Aunt Zhang, neglected to discipline them. It's you who It’s not fair for adults to do it in advance!”

Since the publication of this book, it has received the attention of many friends and book lovers. Thank you all! I would like to sincerely thank Lao Zhou’s former friends, some of whom were originally prototypes in the book. Before, Lao Zhou was worried that they would be angry when they saw it, but he did not expect that they gave them the greatest tolerance and support. Lao Zhou was really touched and couldn’t believe it. To report, just write it down and add more thanks! Finally, continue to ask for collection recommendations and rewards——
