Riding the wind of rebirth

Chapter 266 Arrears
"Then one person is nominated by the family, it happens to be odd, and if there is something to vote for, it won't be a tie." The aunt said, her character is always soft and gentle, with only one exception, which is this small courtyard: " And there is a need to push for a leader, I think our old sister should do this."

"That must be Senior Sister He." Aunt Liu also said: "Senior Sister He was the provincial representative back then. Who among the workers in our compound was not brought out by her? The provincial leaders have all said that Senior Sister He brought them out. A skilled hand!"

It can be seen that people nowadays still retain their simplicity, and their three views have not been shaken by material desires. With the character and prestige she accumulated in the cotton mill, He Ermao is in the hearts of all the juniors and sisters in the compound. Among them, they are still the best candidates to lead them.

"Oh, I can't, I can't do this anymore." Second Madam He waved her hands again and again: "I'm everyone's burden now, you see what I said just now, I'm the burden of Yuan Jiang."

"Old sister, don't say that." The aunt hurriedly said, "If you hadn't gone to the factory cafeteria every day to ask for rice soup, Yuan Jiang wouldn't have said anything now."

At that time, my eldest aunt was not a worker in a cotton yarn factory, and she was not yet old enough. Both her parents died above her, and she had a younger sister and a younger brother below her.

It was Er Madam He who saw that it was not a problem. Relying on her status as a labor representative, she went to the factory several times and promised to bear all the responsibilities and consequences, so she arranged for the two sisters to work in the cotton mill.

Later, the second aunt went to the Yuzhou woolen factory when she had the opportunity, where she spread her branches and leaves. My cousin in Yuzhou was also in the woolen factory. When the supplies in Yuzhou were in short supply, it was my father who helped buy the color TV in Jiachuan. Mrs. Zhao's suit-making skills were also brought over by her cousin from Yuzhou.

The most important thing is the rice soup from the cotton spinning factory, rice soup with sweet potatoes, and half of He Ermao's rations, which fed my father who was still very young at that time.

At this point, the topic turned to the stage of remembering bitterness and thinking about sweetness. Everyone stopped discussing Ermao He as the chairman of the management committee, as if it was a matter of course.

Speaking of the hard times back then, the aunt’s family is a typical example in this big courtyard. When talking about my father’s 12-year-old hair, half of his hair became gray. Catch small fish and dry them with salt.

Dad picked up his glass and said with a smile: "Let's not talk about the hard times in the past. At that time, the leader's body was swollen, and it was the same everywhere in the country."

"But in the end, it's over. The days are getting better and better now, and it will only get better in the future."

Zhou Zhi is not worried about any major changes or bad effects of this matter. No matter what the future holds, now is the cheapest time for real estate. Grateful.

It’s not difficult to operate. Now is the time when my father’s generation is in the prime of life. Urban construction bureaus, design institutes, contractors, water, electricity, gas, etc. It would be troublesome for ordinary people to handle all aspects, but with my father and theirs. , is a relatively simple matter.

This is the kind of person who wants to go out to eat tofu curd rice on weekend mornings, walk a few steps and meet old acquaintances for three to two minutes, walk a few steps and meet old acquaintances for three or two minutes, obviously only five or six minutes Road, I was stunned to be able to get out of the small county town for half an hour.

What Zhou Zhi was more interested in was his father's dedication to this matter and his confidence in finding fund-raising investors.

The New Year’s dinner at my aunt’s house is two meals. After the meal, everyone sits and chats with Longmen Zhen. Because Dad proposed to raise funds to build a building, everyone caught him and drank an extra one, which was a little too much.

Dad's wine taste is similar to Liu Dachuan's, he goes to bed when he's drunk, and after sending Dad to the aunt's bed to sleep, Zhou Zhi accompanied his mother who was very interested to inspect the back of the yard.

One side of the compound is adjacent to Laohe Street, and the other side is high above the river bank.

The end of the stone road in Laohe Street basically ends here, and then it becomes a gravel road, leading to Caiba in the suburbs, where there are large fish ponds and vegetable fields. The townspeople provide the vegetables they need every day.

The side facing the river is an earthen slope, and the yard is on the top of the earthen slope. There are several small windows on the wooden wall on the side of the yard facing the river. Outside the windows is a section of relatively flat ground where some mulberry trees, wolfberry trees, and Some plants like castor bean and stinky peony.

My mother frowned, but Zhou Zhi said, "If you transform this place into a small garden, you don't need to spend a lot of money. It's the kind next to the playground of the Grandma's Central School, with bamboo fences and clay pots. The White Pagoda is very beautiful."

My mother turned her head to look at the dilapidated wooden wall and gray tile yard, and imagined the height of the building here: "Elbow, do you want to raise pigeons?"

"I don't want to. It will take at least a year for the approval to be repaired? At that time, I lived in the dormitory of Shu University."

"You are studying at Shu University, so you won't come back during the holidays?" My mother followed her advice with threats and lures: "How many pigeon eggs have you eaten from Tingting? These are all favors, and you won't pay them back in the future?"

"Why should I pay it back?" Zhou Zhi said, "That was originally my pigeon, and I also made the pigeon house on the rooftop, and now I still have to pay Tingting ten yuan a month to buy corn sorghum and wheat for the pigeons to eat." I also found the gravel. So what happened if I ate a few pigeon eggs?"

"Look at Elbow, don't you like the river view the most? You see, if it is built here, we will take down the top floor and make the roof a garden like your little six sister's house, how about it?"

"It doesn't matter what I like. I think that if I have the conditions, I can 'see thousands of mountains red, and the forests are all dyed; It's good, but if you don't have the conditions, you can just sit in the study salon and say, "Just a classmate who is young and in full bloom; bookish, scolding Fang Qiu. Pointing to the country, stimulating writing, and the dung is ten thousand households back then." That's also good. "

"Don't lose words with me here!" Mom patted Zhou Zhi: "Your father doesn't care about money. It's not like you don't know how much the family has been spending recently. If you see Tian'er, come to relatives. You can see the funds in this collection." What should I do?"

Zhou Zhi hadn't figured out how to tease his mother again, but her mother had already said, "In the future, this family business will not all be yours? Who else can I give it to except you?!"

"Mom, you are so polite." Zhou Zhi smiled and said, "I was silent in my heart just now, Ermao He's has a small single room, which can be solved with more than 1000 yuan, and then raise funds to build a house, a set of 7000 yuan A flat house is no more than [-] yuan, and this is a total of [-] yuan."

"You don't know how expensive you are if you are not in charge of the family!" Mom was anxious: "Where did the money come from at home? This year it has only increased a little. In previous years, it was not all subsidized by me doing the bills for your little sister? The video hall , and the game hall, don’t think I don’t know how much money you and Dayong make in a month now!”

"Mom, didn't you hear me tell you yesterday how to help your godfather find the exhibits that the cultural center wants, and those all cost money." Zhou Zhi sold his godfather after changing hands: "Now the cultural center owes us The family has a lot of money, so you just take this opportunity to talk to your godfather and settle the bills that should be settled first."

"How much does your godfather owe you?"

"It's hundreds of times to say the least."

"I heard from your godmother that your method is wrong." My mother said, "Many of those things have unknown origins, and the country can confiscate them."

"Trade the old for the new, one to eight, people don't want much at all, this is already a contribution." Zhou Zhi rolled his eyes: "If you want to do what you said, then don't do anything. No one is a fool .”
