Chapter 4 Looking for a way out
Ignoring the chaos in the middle school, Zhu Xuefeng turned on the parent mode, asked about the study status of his younger brothers and sisters, and looked at their textbooks. They were all relatively simple.
Zhu Xuesong is in the third grade of junior high school today and is under a lot of pressure. Zhu Xuefeng asked him to summarize and sort out all the knowledge points in junior high school and help him consolidate them every night.
My younger sister is also going to junior high school. This is less stressful. Let her review by herself first. If she doesn’t understand, just ask.
After answering several difficult questions for his younger brothers and sisters, watching them look at me with admiration, I felt a little better as a teacher for a while.
Just open your mouth and come.
"Brother, let me tell you, our country has just been liberated. It is now developing rapidly. You have also seen that these four or nine cities have changed every once in a while! ”
That’s right. In the past few years, the roads have become wider, the city has become tidy, and tall buildings have begun to stand on both sides of the long street.
The two little ones nodded in approval, they could all see this change.
“Do you want to join in this construction and development and contribute your own strength?”
"Of course!" they both replied in unison.
"Our teacher said that this is a beautiful homeland for the working people to build together. Workers are the most glorious. Of course we must participate! Our family is the working class!"
Zhu Xuefeng nodded with a smile. , the education at this time is still educational.
“In the future, society will develop faster and faster, and the demand for knowledge will also increase. Therefore, if you want to be able to participate in construction, you must read more and master more knowledge. The stronger your ability, the greater your contribution."
The younger brothers and sisters nodded, indicating that they listened.
"Then start studying from now on!"
The problem that worries Zhu Xuefeng the most is actually not a problem. This can save a lot of energy. Zhu Xuefeng understands students who do not take the initiative to study. What a headache for parents.
The younger brothers and sisters are still obedient, but the three children of Lao Zhu's family are still worried.
My grades are all above average, and there is no problem with my intelligence. It just depends on my hard work the day after tomorrow.
Lao Zhu's genes are also good, his height and appearance are good, but he is too thin and a little malnourished. After all, he has no mother to take care of him, and his clothes are a bit shabby.
It must have been a while since I changed into new clothes. I checked in the morning and found that there were still a few cloth tickets, but no one knew how to make them and it was too expensive to buy.
I don’t know how to make clothes. I can try to be a father, but I really don’t know how to be a mother. This is also a trouble. I can’t help it. Let’s put this matter aside later.
I asked them about their pocket money. Thinking that they would have to pay lunch fees for April soon, they gave each of them another five yuan.
"This money can only be used for food. If it's not enough, or you need other money, come to me."
Zhu Xuefeng warned like an old father.
Asking his younger siblings to do their homework, Zhu Xuefeng went to the north room alone and closed the door.
After careful inspection of the head injury, there was nothing unusual. After checking the injuries all over the body, there was no improvement. They were still bruised and bruised.
There is no change in my body. I felt like I was at the police station at noon... I checked my whole body again, but still found nothing.
Lying on the kang in frustration, he closed his eyes and said, "Hmm"
Sometimes, there is a novice gift pack and two small gift packs. As expected, all travelers have benefits. I don’t understand why there are three gift packages.
Open the novice gift bag, a small portable space, not bad, open the two small gift bags to see, the first one, three thousand experience? What's the use of this? Let’s look at the second item, a marrow-cleansing pill.
Check your personal information.
Host: Zhu Xuefeng
Age: 17
Physique: 5
Strength: 5
Spirit: 8
Intelligence: 8
Skills:
Skills and Experience: 3000
Cooking Proficiency: 3
Other Skills: None
Talent: Super Vision
(Set the normal upper limit to 10)
Experience has been added automatically Now, I can guess what the elixir does, and I can understand the various qualities, but why is this skill called cooking? Nothing else.
Are you asking yourself to be a chef? Go to Shazhu to learn skills? Isn't the plot about being a worker? I don't understand.
But with his super eyesight, when he looked up at the roof, it was indeed a little different. The light was not very good, but Zhu Xuefeng could clearly see the spiders lying on the silk webs on the beams.
There are some uses, let’s explore them later.
Put away the elixirs first. If the wounds are cured, the rest of the plan will be out of the question.
There is also a portable space, which is not very big, only the area of two wing rooms. After playing around for a while, I can also decorate it. Can I grow some vegetables?
Okay, it's better than nothing. At least the system sent a message, telling me that my physical condition was very poor, so I treated it as a free physical examination.
After calming down and making arrangements for tomorrow, Zhu Xuefeng sat up, took out his textbook and looked through it carefully. After confirming that there was no need to study, he put away the books.
The top priority is to improve the food. Food depends on votes, meat depends on votes, and milk depends on votes. Everything really depends on votes. It is really a headache to face this situation for the first time.
By the way, hunting is now encouraged to eliminate all wild beasts that eat crops. This can be regarded as meat, but I don’t know how to do it, and I don’t have a shotgun or other tools.
Thinking of the difficulties in improving the food, Zhu Xuefeng opened the door in annoyance. It was still early, less than nine o'clock, and walked out of the courtyard and decided to take a walk. This was his previous habit after meals.
Nanluoguxiang is very close to Shichahai Park. Go to the lake for a walk.
Out of the courtyard, we came to the entrance of the alley. There were not many street lights on the road. An incandescent bulb was installed in a small porcelain basin, emitting a weak yellow light.
Walking along the alley and passing through Di'anmen Nei Street, almost no one was walking around anymore, and Zhu Xuefeng didn't care.
Walking slowly along the inner street, I arrived at Bhai Park after a while. It was too dark, so I took a fork in the road and went to Bhai Park.
A breeze blew, bringing with it the coolness of the lake water, and I felt inexplicably relaxed. The sound of fish diving occasionally came from the lake, and the movement was not small.
Find an opportunity during the day to see if you can catch some fish to satisfy your craving.
There were no people around the lake. Except for a few street lights on the street in the distance, there was some light in the residential area in the distance. Looking to the west, there were basically no lights at all.
The whole city is still dominated by darkness, which is completely different from the bright lights of later generations.
Looking to the south, it is very quiet. You can see the huge figure of the palace in the distance. There are not many lights and it is dark. It should be the GU Palace.
After walking around the lake for a while, the moon is also on vacation today. The light in the park is very poor and it is basically difficult to see clearly. It is not interesting. Zhu Xuefeng plans to return.
From a distance, I saw several cyclists coming towards me.
"What are you doing? Stop!"
After a long explanation, I was sent home. It turned out to be a joint defense team patrolling the street at night. What time was it? It's probably not even ten o'clock anyway.
Unfortunately, it started to rain lightly on the way home. The rain became heavier and heavier, making a tinkling sound on the tiles.
We found an eaves and stayed for a long time. The rain finally subsided. Zhu Xuefeng carefully avoided the small puddles on the ground, one foot deep and one foot shallow, and returned to the courtyard in embarrassment.
The courtyard was already closed, and only then did I realize that the third uncle seemed to close at ten o'clock every day.
After knocking for a while, the third uncle came and opened the door.
"Third uncle, thank you, I forgot to order, please pay attention next time."
Before the third uncle could ask, Zhu Xuefeng apologized quickly.
"It's okay. If you are coming back late next time, let me know in advance and I will leave the door open for you."
I wanted to ask about wandering around on a rainy day, but I didn't ask.
I thanked the third uncle and hurried home. I saw Jia Dongxu leaving the first uncle’s house from a distance, and the first uncle went to the backyard again.
After careful consideration, it is probably about the house. If I guessed correctly, the first uncle should have gone to find the second uncle, or the deaf old lady. In this world, it is true that good people are bullied, and good people are ridiculed. It is obvious that they are going to continue to cause trouble. It seems that there is going to be a general meeting of the hospital.
Come on, Zhu Xuefeng wants to fight.
When I went home, I saw that my younger brothers and sisters had finished cleaning up and were getting ready for bed, and they were worried about Zhu Xuefeng.
"Brother, it was raining just now. Where have you been? Your head is wet. Didn't you wet the wound?" Zhu Xuemei hurried over with a towel.
"I came by myself. I got caught in the rain. It's okay. I paid attention. It's not wet inside." Zhu Xuefeng took the towel.
"Xuemei, go to bed quickly. It's getting late. Xuesong, you and I sleep in the north room."
Zhu Xuemei returned to her room, and Zhu Xuesong followed her into the north room and put them away. I took off my schoolbag, took off my clothes, and climbed onto the kang.
"Brother, what should I do when Jia Dongxu beats you? Is the beating in vain?" Zhu Xuesong couldn't help but say while lying on the bed.
Zhu Xuefeng said while tidying up his hair that was wet by the rain:
"Of course not, evil will be punished, don't think too much about it, just care about your further education."
Zhu Xuesong wants to say something else.
"Stop talking and go to bed quickly. It's getting late. I have everything planned for later."
"Brother, just talk."
"There's really nothing to say. We have to wait until they make the matter bigger before we can take advantage of the opportunity. Understand, go to sleep."
Zhu Xuesong blinked, as if he understood, but also seemed not to understand. Big brother said, then go to sleep, turn over and sleep.
Early the next morning, I added a boiled egg and ate some steamed buns with yesterday's broth.
"Brother, let's go." Zhu Xuesong said hello and took Zhu Xuemei to school.
After staying at home for a while, after everyone at work and school had left, Zhu Xuefeng rode his bicycle to the hospital for a review.
The light rain last night seemed to have left nothing behind, except that the leaves on the roadside became greener and brighter.
"Doctor, please give me a diagnosis of the injury, and..."
Without much effort, Zhu Xuefeng reached an agreement with the doctor amicably with two packs of cigarettes, holding the injury Zhu Xuefeng carefully packed the love diagnosis certificate, various bills, and a pile of medicines.
Looking at how early it is, ride a bicycle all the way east along Inner Street, pass Shitiao, and go around to Dzhimenwai Street.
I continued riding along the alley and arrived at the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill. I looked back and saw that the Jingcheng Motorcycle Manufacturing Factory was also here. I hadn't noticed it before.
I explained to the guard at the door, and after a while, the director of the third workshop came.
The middle-aged man who came in a hurry was Director Sun of the third workshop. He had been here when seeing off Lao Zhu a few days ago. He was Zhu Zhenggang's workshop director.
"Uncle Sun, please make a trip."
"Xiao Zhu, you are here to do some work, come and I will take you there."
" This, Uncle Sun, is like this..."
Zhu Xuefeng said that he wanted to get a high school diploma, so he had to wait three months before coming to work.
“That’s it, that’s good. After graduating from high school, you will be more qualified for more positions. You will be able to perform better and make better progress in the future. This is a good idea.”
“Let’s do it, I will take you there. Go to the secretary, the secretary will definitely support this matter.”
This worker comrade is so simple that he can vouch for the leader. This uncle Sun is really a real person.
I met Secretary Chen and explained the situation, and the Secretary agreed. After all, it is a good thing for a young man to want to make progress, and Lao Zhu’s sacrifice is also a pity. For this trivial matter, the secretary made the decision on the spot.
"Uncle Sun, I'll go back then. I'm sorry to trouble you today!" Zhu Xuefeng politely expressed his thanks.
"You are so polite. If anything happens in the future, remember to contact your uncle." It was obvious that Director Sun was sincere.
Farewell to the secretary and Director Sun, Zhu Xuefeng left the steel rolling mill. He thought of yesterday's buns again, couldn't hold himself back, and ran to the shop again.
"Uncle, here are thirty big meat buns." Seeing that there were not many people, Zhu Xuefeng decided to buy more.
"Hey, man, there aren't that many, let me take a look." The uncle quickly replied, opened the steamer drawer and counted them.
"Then I'll take them all. I'll wrap up whatever is left."
"It's not easy to put these stuffed things away. Don't let them go bad." Looking at the half The young man can buy so much in one go, the uncle kindly reminds me.
"Don't worry, the big meat buns you made are delicious. There are many of us waiting for them, so we can't waste them."
I bought the remaining twenty big meat buns in the shop in one go. The steamed buns were packed in five paper bags and he left quickly. The braised vegetables in the shop were too fragrant. If he stayed any longer, Zhu Xuefeng was worried that he would not be able to control himself.
"This guy bought all the buns in one go. Have my skills improved again or something?" Seeing the popularity of the buns, the uncle thought a little too much.
Find an alley, throw the buns into the space, and ride towards Shichahai, which is less than ten minutes away.
There are a lot of people fishing on the shore. At first glance, there are more than a dozen. When I walked in and took a look, I found that the harvest was average. There were no big hooks. Basically, they were only two or three crucian carp.
"Uncle, you are fishing!" Zhu Xuefeng took the initiative to step forward to check out the situation, "Hey, we caught a lot."
"Oh, no, they are all small fish, one big one No. "The uncle was honest and didn't brag.
“There are no big fish in such a big lake, no way!”
“Who said there are no big fish? At the end of last year, the park pulled two nets, and some weighed more than ten kilograms. Quite a bit.”
The rule at this time is that fishing is allowed in the park, but private individuals are not allowed to set nets.
After chatting for a while, I finally understood that big fish generally don’t come to shallow water, and people don’t let them go in deep water. If you want to sneak in, someone will take care of it.
The big fish are all collected by people in the park at the end of the year to get a few nets to give out New Year benefits.
This fish is not easy to deal with, and you have to find a way to survive.
Go to the department store and have a look. It is said that radios are difficult to buy nowadays. I am familiar with radios and have repaired various electrical appliances. I want to see if I can save one. This thing is definitely more reliable than fishing.
The closest one should be DI Anmen Department Store. Cycling along the street, there are many bicycles and not many cars, but there are three-wheeled motorcycles, three-wheeled motorcycles and two-wheeled motorcycles. Not uncommon.
Busses and trolleybuses carrying gas packs were passing by. It might be time for work and school, but there were not many passers-by.
When we arrived at the department store, there were not many people, but there were quite a lot of goods. All the basic daily necessities were complete. I took a look at the radio counter.
The radio is not small. The wooden frame of the casing looks okay. You don’t need to look at it, just look at it. It must be a tube inside.
After walking around the department store for a while, he didn't see anyone selling radio accessories or tubes. Zhu Xuefeng was a little disappointed and walked out of the building.
I remember when I went to Jiuxianqiao to discuss business, they introduced that their factory had been producing various transistors for five years or so, so why don’t you go and take a look.
I just did it and rode straight to Jiuxian Bridge. According to memory, it was about fifteen kilometers and took more than an hour. It was really not fast and I was panting and sweating from exhaustion.
Sure enough, I found it, but there was no contact person to receive me. The guard refused to let me in.
This road is not easy to walk either.
This chapter is not pleasant, but there is no way. The plot requires it. To solve the survival problem, you need to try many times. Understand, it is just the early stage need at the beginning of the story. Of course, you will not find a way to survive later.
