rebirth of change

Chen Kangjie stayed in Pengcheng for two days, and he really tried his best to please him. He accompanied his mother to the park to dance with the elderly for two consecutive days, and even drove to the suburbs to climb mountains and pray for God.

Speaking of which, Ma Fangqin is not too old, maybe it's because staying at home is boring, the children are out, and Chen Qigang is usually busy, so when he is alone at home, apart from watching TV and doing housework, he will inevitably feel lonely and dull.

When she was shopping for vegetables one day, she accidentally saw a group of middle-aged and elderly people gathered at the gate of the park to dance the elderly fan dance.Curiosity prompted her to stop and take a look. The old people were also enthusiastic. Two of them might think that she was interested in this, so they went up to talk to her and invited her to join.

Ma Fangqin is considered to be a simple woman from the countryside. She has basically never been in contact with literature and art, and she feels embarrassed to be invited.But fortunately, people of their time were warm-hearted, and after the two old people's warm invitations, Ma Fangqin also felt that she could come out to exercise, but she gritted her teeth and agreed.When she went home and talked to Chen Qigang, she received support with raised hands.Chen Qigang also felt that she should find some fun for herself, otherwise it would be really uncomfortable to stay at home all day.

At the beginning, Ma Fangqin was a little clumsy. After all, she was just a newcomer, and everything was a blank sheet of paper. However, besides the characteristic of simplicity, Chinese farmers also have another important characteristic, that is, persistence. She is very persistent. I learn from others in the park, and practice alone at home.Ma Fangqin always feels that she can do what others can do. In addition, she also has a sense of pride. Her family is all good, her husband is a high-ranking official, and her children are better than each other. A great, how can she fall into the limelight?How can you admit defeat?With this kind of spirit, Ma Fangqin not only learned the elderly fan dance, but now also learns the waist drum dance. In their small circle of middle-aged and elderly people, she is no worse than anyone else.

Since Chen Qigang's position has reached the level of the main hall, according to the regulations, their family has been equipped with domestic servants provided by the government, but Ma Fangqin has been useless. She is used to buying vegetables, cooking and cleaning up the house. Spent most of her free time.Now she has a hobby and is willing to accept the services provided by the government, but she still has restrictions. The waiter only does the tasks of buying vegetables and cleaning the house, and she still cooks by herself, unless she meets them When the group has activities, the waiter will cook a meal for Chen Qigang.

Chen Kangjie accompanies his mother to the park, of course he will not appear in his true colors. Now there are basically few people in the country who do not know him, even those middle-aged and elderly people who are considered not so fashionable.If people saw that he was a long, it would be strange if Ma Fangqin's life wasn't disrupted.Besides, Ma Fangqin never told her old friends that she was the wife of the secretary of the municipal party committee, and others just regarded her as a woman from other provinces who lived here with her family. Anyway, almost all of Pengcheng were from other places. The kind of xenophobic thinking that other big cities have.Among the many domestic cities that Chen Kangjie has been to, Pengcheng is the most inclusive. No matter where you are from, you will have an equal status in this city. Perhaps this is not so different from the large number of locals in this city. Living in this city is related to the locals who have become rich. Quite a few of them are not immigrants but mainly live in Hong Kong. The whole city is completely occupied by foreigners from top to bottom. It is these foreigners who promote this special zone. Prosperity and development of the city.

Chen Kangjie, who was wearing sportswear and sitting in the shade of a locust tree, looked at his mother who was dancing in the crowd in a red dance costume. He felt very happy and sweet. Although his mother was not young, she had a waist and footsteps Still quite flexible.At the same time, he blamed himself more or less, because there was really too little time to spend at home.

When the song was over, Chen Kangjie hurried forward with a towel and a water glass, "Mom, I can't tell. I didn't expect you to dance so well and move so nimbly and vigorously."

Ma Fangqin wiped a small layer of sweat stains on his forehead with a towel, took the water glass handed over by Chen Kangjie, and said happily, "Stop saying exaggerated things, so that people will hear the joke."

"How can this be an exaggeration? It's not an exaggeration at all. Hehe, you have to know that your son is considered a semi-professional. Doesn't he have such a vision? Haha, who would make a joke?" Chen Kangjie smiled comfortably Said.

"Hey, Ma, is this your child?" At this time, a woman wearing glasses and her hair starting to turn gray smiled and asked Ma Fangqin as she approached the mother and son.

"Oh, Aunt Guo, this is my son Xiaojie, Xiaojie, this is Aunt Guo, she is my introductory teacher, and she introduced me to participate in this activity." Ma Fangqin took Chen Kangjie's arm and introduced quickly.

"Aunt Guo, hello, hello, thank you, thank you, my mother played with you, and I feel much better." Chen Kangjie was very polite, bowing and saying hello.

"Hehe, what are you thanking? Look at what you said, we are playing together. The young man is very energetic, what is he doing?" Although Chen Kangjie changed his appearance, at least his temperament was still there.

"Aunt Guo, he's still in school, and he won't be able to work until two years later." Ma Fangqin poked Chen Kangjie nervously and replied instead.

Ma Fangqin was worried that Chen Kangjie had said something wrong and leaked the truth.In fact, how could Chen Kangjie be so clumsy when dealing with these things?In terms of experience, he is richer than anyone else.

"Oh, I thought I was working. My child is working here, doing foreign trade."

"Hehe, Aunt Guo, foreign trade is very popular now. I also major in this field, and I will do some internships in this field during vacations." Chen Kangjie is very correct about his identity, completely treating himself as an ordinary person Talk to others, "Aunt Guo, I think your performance is very good, very energetic, and fully demonstrates the spirit of contemporary middle-aged and elderly people. What kind of activities do you usually organize?"

"What kind of activities can there be? Everyone is very amateur, and usually only participate in performances organized by some community organizations during festivals such as National Day or New Year's Day." Aunt Guo said calmly.

"I think your performance is very good, very refreshing. I think if you go to the art center in front of you to perform, the effect will be better."

"Hahaha, hahaha, Ma, your son is really good at talking. Only professional groups can enter there. It is said that renting a venue costs more than [-] a day. How can we go there to perform?" Chen Kangjie had a good time, she didn't feel that Chen Kangjie was playing with them, but that he was kind of cute.

"Aunt Guo, don't listen to him, this kid is not very good at talking. We just exercise and have fun." Ma Fangqin said with a smile and glared at Chen Kangjie.

"Mom, I'm a bit wrong when you say that. The elderly can also have artistic pursuits. Can't the performances of the elderly be listed in the Hall of Elegance? Although the current performance market is for young people, it is also We can show our good performances to the people of the city by introducing sponsorship, there is nothing impossible." Chen Kangjie first smiled, and then said seriously.

"Hehe, Xiaojie, Auntie likes your optimism very much. But you said just now that the performance market is dominated by young people. Besides, we are all a group of non-professional old men and women. How can there be any corporate sponsorship? You So much fun."

"Hey, Aunt Guo, didn't you say two days ago that a company would ask us to do a performance!" Ma Fangqin suddenly thought of something, and asked while holding Aunt Guo's arm.

"There is a company that sells furniture. My son asked about it later. It's not a performance, it's publicity. It's 50 yuan per person per day."

"Is there still money? What kind of publicity is it?" Ma Fangqin was curious.

"Hey," Aunt Guo sighed, "I just hold their company's signboard and beat the drums all over the street to promote their products. I'm going to discuss with everyone today. Should we go or not?"

"Hehe, 50 yuan a day? Still playing drums and gongs all over the street? Aunt Guo, Mom, I think you should stop taking such jobs. It’s a trivial matter if you have too much money. The key is that the exhaust gas on the street is too thick. The health of your middle-aged and elderly people is not good. And you can’t show your dancing posture and spirit, and you can’t enjoy your body and mind. Or, how about this? I also met some people from enterprises during my internship. Let me help you to ask, See if there is anyone who is willing to support your senior group's performance." If it was someone else, the reason for rejection must be out of face, after all, I am so rich, my father is still the leader of the city, and my mother actually went to help others "sweep the streets" , I can't hold back my face.However, Chen Kangjie's starting point really has nothing to do with face. He mainly thinks that the method of being regarded as cheap elderly labor is not good for them old people.

"Xiaojie, don't talk nonsense, can you find this casually?" Ma Fangqin glared at Chen Kangjie and said angrily.

Ma Fangqin thought that Chen Kangjie was trying to get her brother or sister out of her way, and that would embarrass her. She didn't want her personal affairs to be involved with the children's business.If Chen Yuchang and the others knew that their mother was participating in the performance, they would come to support her in person no matter what. At that time, the relationship might be leaked.

Over the years, with the earth-shaking changes in family life, Ma Fangqin's thinking is no longer that of a petty citizen. At that time, she planned to save a little money for her son to marry a wife.Now whether it is Chen Qigang's work or the careers of her children, she no longer has that conservative worry.It is also this change in broadening her knowledge that makes her more cautious in dealing with affairs and interpersonal relationships, especially keeping it from causing negative effects.
