Chapter 217 The happy couple!
After Chen Shulan watched Zhang Dahua leave with the children, she immediately closed the door of her home and walked towards the back hill of Zhangjiacun.
At this time, almost all the villagers in Zhangjia Village were digging canals in the mountains behind Zhangjia Village. Chen Shulan's arrival immediately attracted the attention of many villagers.
"Shulan! Aren't you sick and resting at home? Why did you come to the back mountain?" Chen Shulan's neighbor asked Chen Shulan curiously when he saw Chen Shulan's arrival.
Chen Shulan heard her neighbor's inquiry and quickly asked her: "Aunt Liu! Do you know where our Tiezhu and his father are?"
When Aunt Liu heard Chen Shulan's inquiry, she immediately pointed to the small mountain col in front and introduced to Chen Shulan: "Shulan! All the second team is in the small mountain col in front. Tiezhu's father should be over there."
Chen Shulan heard Aunt Liu's introduction and immediately said to Aunt Liu: "Aunt Liu! If you are busy, I will go over and take a look first."
"Grandma! Why are you here?" Before Chen Shulan reached the small mountain col, a child about six or seven years old immediately ran towards Chen Shulan and asked Chen Shulan happily.
When Chen Shulan saw her little grandson, she immediately asked him: "Gangdan! Where are your father and grandpa?"
"Grandma! My father and mother are over there. Grandpa and uncle have gone to the reservoir." Gang Dan heard Chen Shulan's inquiry and quickly told Chen Shulan the location of his parents.
Chen Shulan saw her grandson who looked like a mud monkey in front of her, and said to him: "Gang Dan! Let's go! Let grandma go find your parents with you. Grandma will take you to your uncle's house to play later."
When Gangdan learned that Chen Shulan was taking him to his uncle's house to play, he immediately jumped up happily and quickly said to several playmates: "Dabao! Gou Sheng! I'm going to my uncle's house with my grandma, wait for me I’ll play with you when I get back.”
After Gangdan said this, he immediately ran towards the place where his parents worked.
"Dad! Mom! Grandma is here to see you." Gangdan, who was leading the way, saw his parents digging ditches with hoes and shouted loudly as he ran.
Zhang Tiezhu, who was working, heard his son's shout and subconsciously looked in the direction of the shout.
When Zhang Tiezhu saw Chen Shulan walking towards this side, he immediately stepped forward and asked Chen Shulan with a concerned look on his face: "Mom! If you don't stay at home to recuperate, why did you come to the back mountain for nothing?"
When Chen Shulan heard her son's inquiry and thought that her son would soon be able to go to the city to work as a worker, she immediately told Zhang Tiezhu: "Zhuzhu! You quickly go to the squad leader to ask for leave, and I will take you and Xiu'er to your grandpa's house. ”
When Zhang Tiezhu heard what Chen Shulan said, he thought of the work points he could get by working here, and asked Chen Shulan curiously: "Mom! Why should we go to grandpa's house if we have nothing to do? Xiu'er and I have worked for almost a day. If we ask for leave at this time, the work points will be It will be less than half.”
On normal days, Chen Shulan would definitely not cherish these work points. Thinking of her son's future, Chen Shulan immediately introduced to Zhang Tiezhu: "Zhuzhu! Just now your aunt came to our house. Your aunt's cousin is in the city. You found a job target. Your grandpa asked us to come over right away. "Mom! What did you say? Aiguo found a job target for me in the city. How is this possible?" Zhang Tiezhu heard the news from Chen Shulan. , didn't believe Chen Shulan's words at all, and immediately refuted.
Seeing that her son did not believe her words, Chen Shulan immediately showed an expression of hatred on her face. She scolded Zhang Tiezhu dissatisfiedly: "Zhuzi! What do you know, you little bastard? Aiguo is now a cadre. Not long ago, you two Xiaodong from your uncle’s family was arranged by Patriot to work as a buyer in your uncle’s factory.”
"I heard from your aunt that patriotism gives your uncle, your uncle, and our family a work quota. Your grandpa asked your aunt to come over to deliver the letter. Now you go and ask for leave from the captain, and then go home and change clothes. Decent clothes, let’s go to your grandpa’s house.”
After Zhang Tiezhu heard the news that Chen Shulan told him and confirmed that it was all true, he became extremely excited. He quickly said to his wife standing aside: "Xiu'er! I'm going to the city to work as a worker! Our family People will soon become city dwellers.”
Zhang Tiezhu's wife, Xiu'er, was also very excited when she heard Zhang Tiezhu's words and learned that her husband was coming to the city. She quickly reminded Zhang Tiezhu: "Zhuzi! Grandpa is still waiting for us at Chenjiashan. We should hurry up and ask for leave from the captain, and then go to my grandpa’s house with my mother.”
Zhang Tiezhu woke up after hearing his wife's reminder, nodded quickly and replied: "Yes! Let's go to the captain to ask for leave."
Just as Chen Shulan and Zhang Tiezhu's family were happily returning to Chenjiashan's parents' home, a middle-aged woman from Chen Shulan's husband's family ran into the yard with a hoe in her hand and shouted to the old lady sitting in the yard picking up the soles of her shoes: "Mom! Something happened, something big happened."
The old lady who was picking up the soles of her shoes was really frightened when she heard the middle-aged woman's cry. Her finger was pricked directly by an awl, and blood kept pouring out from the wound.
But at this time, the old lady did not pay attention to the wound on her finger, and asked the middle-aged woman anxiously: "Boss, wife! What happened?"
When the middle-aged woman heard the old lady's question and thought of the news that Zhang Tiezhu was going to the city to work as a worker, she ran out of breath. She picked up the tea jar on the table, took a big sip of cold boiled water, and then introduced herself. Said: "Mom! I just heard from the people in the team that the second daughter-in-law's natal family has found a job for Tiezhu in the city. The second daughter-in-law has already taken Tiezhu and his wife back to her natal family."
When the old lady heard the situation introduced by the eldest daughter-in-law, a shocked expression appeared on her face, and she asked her in disbelief: "eldest daughter-in-law! What did you say? Shulan's natal family found a girl in the city for Tiezhu. A job, is this true? ”
When the middle-aged woman heard the old lady's question, she nodded with certainty. Thinking of the reason why she rushed back from the construction site, she quickly said to the old lady: "Mom! Our Tieniu family still doesn't have a mother-in-law. If Tieniu can If you go to the city to get food, girls from all over the country are not allowed to be chosen by my family.”
The old lady was infected by the old ideas and focused on the idea of eldest son and grandson. For this reason, no matter what happened in the family, everything was biased towards the big house.
When the old lady heard the eldest daughter-in-law's reminder, her eyes immediately brightened, and she quickly asked the middle-aged woman: "Eldest daughter-in-law! Has the second son gone to Chenjiashan?"
When the middle-aged woman heard the old lady's inquiry, she immediately felt that there was something interesting about this matter and quickly replied: "Mom! The second and third children went to the reservoir with the party secretary and haven't come back yet."
