Several times in dreams

Chapter 172 Reinvigorated
"Of course it's true. When have I lied to you? Don't think that when I show you my letter, I just want to reminisce about bitterness and sweetness for you. I just want to tell you that no matter what you do, you have to endure hardships and stand hard work." , Perseverance, perseverance, even if it is painting, without a heart that has the courage to endure hardships, you can't paint well!"

"Of course I know, I can definitely draw it well!" Zhang Xueqing was in high spirits, "Well, I will reluctantly read the letter that Aunt Hao wrote to you!"

"Your Auntie Hao is only two years younger than my mother, but her persistence really makes me feel ashamed. I think that a person's life is very long, and there will always be some ups and downs and difficulties. If you encounter difficulties, you will be depressed and fall down. If you lie on the ground and don't get up, you will never make progress, you can only go around in circles! What do you think?" Yu Hui looked at her daughter's childish face and said slowly.

"Ang! Mom, you are so right! When I first missed my homework, I was worried that there were so many homework that I couldn't make up for it. Slowly, it accumulated more and more, and I didn't want to study anymore, and I couldn't keep up with the new lessons. !" Zhang Xueqing didn't talk back this time, and followed Yuhui's train of thought.

"So since you plan to learn painting, you should also keep up with the cultural courses, especially the three other subjects of language and mathematics, which are originally your strengths. If you grasp these three subjects, then you can learn according to your energy and actual situation. , try to score as many points as possible in the remaining few sub-courses, and it’s not a problem to get three or four hundred points in the exam, right?”

"Of course, I'm sure about these three courses. After all, art colleges only need more than 300 points. The main thing is to pass the professional courses first."

"It seems that you have thoroughly researched it, and it's not a whim. Your future is up to you, and your mother will fully support you!"

The mother and daughter happily reached an agreement. Zhang Xueqing carefully read Hao Wenxiu's letter, which was really touching. Aunt Hao Wenxiu worked so hard at her age, so why should she slack off?

Zhang Xueqing wrote another letter the next day, telling Zhao Chenxing about the reconciliation between herself and her mother, and the support she had received from her mother. The two letters were sent together, using a full five stamps .

It was Chinese New Year, but Wen Lan didn't come back on time, she just wrote a letter, saying that she still had some things to finish, and she was staying at Changsheng's house for the time being, and didn't say anything else.

Originally, Yuhui was relieved when she received her aunt's letter, but she didn't know what her aunt had to do. When she went to the post office to call her parents-in-law and mother-in-law to pay New Year's greetings on the first day of the new year, Yuhui heard the shocking news.

After the wedding, the young couple was going to travel. Changsheng and his wife sent them to the train. On the way back, they encountered a car accident. Lan Xiang passed away on the spot. Changsheng was seriously injured and was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment.

Wenlan has been taking care of Changsheng in the hospital since she didn’t come back. Although she has three children, it took too much energy to arrange Lanxiang’s funeral at the beginning. Taking care of Changsheng is time-consuming and labor-intensive, so Wen Lan volunteered to stay and help take care of Changsheng.

The children are naturally grateful to her. Changsheng lost a leg after a car accident, and the wound is still slowly healing. In the future, he will need to wear prosthetics, rehabilitation training, recovery will take a long time, and just needs a full-time care by one person.

The responsible party paid a sum of money, and Changsheng's children wanted to pay Wenlan wages, but Wenlan was determined not to do so. She said that she and Changsheng grew up together, and taking care of Changsheng was a matter of affection. She was not a full-time nanny, let alone an escort.

Helplessly, the sons and daughters kept their living expenses and came to visit Changsheng every weekend as a courtesy. Since then, the work of taking care of Changsheng has fallen on Wenlan alone.

Everyone on the farm said that Wenlan was stupid, and he had no name or title, so why would he take care of Changsheng for free?The children divided up the compensation. Originally, Wenlan helped take care of it, but now it's her job alone.

In fact, Wen Lan was really upset. She didn't care about money. She originally helped out because she was worried that her children would not be able to take care of her. Now it seems that she has no filial sons in front of her bed for a long time. She is even more worried about her longevity. People can say whatever they want Well, getting Changsheng back to health as soon as possible is the right thing to do.

In May 1987, Gong Jixiang passed away due to a long-term illness and was bedridden. Yuhui and Zhang Chunshan went back to the Great Northern Wilderness to handle the funeral for her mother-in-law.

Only after returning home did I find out that Zhang Chunfa's family had left the Great Northern Wilderness two years ago, moved to Wang Yanmei's hometown, and took their three daughters with them.

A few years earlier, Zhang Chunjie followed Zhu Wenting back to her hometown in Inner Mongolia, and the two took Zhu Mingyan away to take care of her. In the past two years, a relative of her mother-in-law's family has been taking care of the old couple.

"Dad, why didn't you tell us! Every time I asked you, you said that the family is fine. If Mom hadn't passed away, we wouldn't have known that you had no one to take care of you!" Yu Hui felt a little sad.

"Hey, how can we take care of you? We live in a dorm. We have a doctor when we are sick, a canteen for meals, and we can do it ourselves. We don't need anything! Your mother has worked hard all her life, so you have to take good care of her! I am a revolutionary For the rest of my life, I have been indifferent to such things as the love of children, as long as there is meat to eat and someone to play with, I will be happy!"

Zhang Ruimin has long since retired, playing mahjong and croquet with a group of old cadres every day in the cadre rest center. The nephew of Gong Jixiang's natal family is a careful person, and the couple take good care of the old man.

But no matter what, she is not the closest person. Yuhui decided to take her father-in-law back to Shandong to take care of her. After all, she is almost 80 years old, so it is really worrying to leave him alone in the Great Northern Wilderness.

Zhang Ruimin didn't want to leave. He was reluctant to part with those old comrades in arms. He was even more afraid that he would not get used to it in Shandong and had no one to play with. Zhang Chunshan said that he had done his job well, and promised him that if he didn't feel interesting, he would send him back, old man Only then did they agree to go back to Haixi together.

Back in Haixi, housing was a big problem, there were only three rooms, Zhang Ruimin lived in Zhang Xueqing's small room, so she had to move to grandma's room with Zhang Xiangxiang.

Although it is inconvenient to study, after all, grandpa is getting old, and mother said to give him a warm home, Zhang Xueqing decided to overcome difficulties.

Zhang Xiangxiang was almost nine years old, and Zhang Ruimin had never met Zhang Ruimin before. Zhang Ruimin was very happy to meet his grandparents and grandchildren. Zhang Xiangxiang was very well-behaved, and often went to his grandfather to talk to him, making Zhang Ruimin laugh out loud.

Meng Wanying originally welcomed Zhang Ruimin's arrival. After all, Zhang Chunshan had been obedient to her for so many years, even more filial than her own son, but her parents were left in the Great Northern Wilderness and could not do their own filial piety. Meng Wanying felt that Zhang Ruimin had come. Be sure to treat him well!

However, Zhang Ruimin was used to being a leader, and there were special waiters to take care of him in the Great Northern Wilderness Retirement Center.
