the longest dream

Chapter 36

"Why? Why should we buy a building for the boss and the second child, and a car for Fusheng and Haijiang? We are outsiders?"

After hearing what his son told about the excitement of the old house, Liu Chunhua, the wife of the fourth uncle Sun Chuntang, almost died of anger, and shouted at Sun Chuntang.

Sun Chuntang listened to his wife in everything, and now Liu Chunhua pointed at his nose and scolded him, but he just kept silent.

On the other hand, Sun Haijun said unhappily, "Mom, what are you scolding my father for? My sister-in-law came to borrow money, saying that my uncle was seriously ill and the family really had no money. She wanted to borrow some money to send Brother Qingzi to school. My father wanted to borrow money at that time. Yes, you said that if you dared to borrow it, you scratched his face and said that going to school is useless. Now that people have made money from studying, they can repay their grandparents, uncles, and uncles. You didn’t help them at that time. , why buy it for you?"

Sun Haijun is one year younger than Zhang Qing, so he is already sensible.

"Fuck you!"

Liu Chunhua was so annoyed by what she said, she slapped Sun Haijun on the face and scolded: "The only money we have at home is to lend it to your aunt. What about the field? You don't want to eat or drink?"

Sun Haijun was probably used to being beaten since he was a child, and he didn't think it was a big deal when he got slapped. He said angrily, "The soy sauce and salt we eat at home are all 'borrowed' from my grandparents, and the buns are three-day old. How much can it cost to borrow at both ends? You just think that my sister-in-law’s family is too poor, and you think they can’t afford it, so you don’t borrow a penny. Since you didn’t do well in the past, don’t try to get rich now. But Brother Qingzi said, I During the Chinese New Year, you can go upstairs and celebrate the New Year with your grandparents."

"Fuck your mother!"

Liu Chunhua almost died of anger. After chasing her son and beating her for a while, she scolded Sun Chuntang, "Why are you still dying there? Go get some eggs and go to Big Brother's to see your sister and Qingzi. I don't believe it." , you are her own brother, she can really ignore you!"

……

"The navy and they went back?"

When setting up the square table, Li Ying found that the number of people was wrong, and it was not until one o'clock did she know that Sun Haijun and Sun Haitao had returned home.

Li Yun laughed and said, "Soon the fourth family and the fifth family should come."

Zhang Guozhong worried: "There won't be a scene, will it?"

Sun Qingshi snorted, and said: "What are they talking about in a while, you don't talk, let me tell you, what are they doing?"

Zhang Qing laughed softly: "If you don't buy a car, you can buy a house for them by scraping together. It was originally used to prevent them from making trouble, and grandpa asked for it. But it can't be done now."

Sun Qingshi said harshly: "Can I say that? Qingzi, you are looking down on your grandfather. Although I am old and my eyesight is blurred, my heart is not blind! I can afford it but I can't buy it. People's hearts are long. They If it didn’t work at the beginning, it’s okay to make trouble now that it’s better, there’s no such reason in the world.”

The second concubine, Liu Xiu'e, smiled and said, "They are two young." In fact, this is what annoys her the most.

Zhao Juxiang nodded quickly and said: "That's right, the two of them are young, they are not sensible." The youngest son is her lifeline.

Li Yun smiled and said: "Mother, are they still young? They are almost forty? They are not as young as Qingzi, let alone them, the navy is only one year younger than Qingzi, and Qingzi is more sensible than them. ?”

Sun Yuehe laughed and said: "Our family and the Zhang family are not doing well, just these two little ones, let's talk about it."

Zhao Juxiang couldn't speak for a moment, because she knew that her daughter hated the Zhang family and was about to destroy the ancestral grave, so she could only sigh now.

I've been hurting my little son all my life, but right now I really have nothing to say.

Everyone chatted and sat down, and Sun Mantang also took out the famous wine Daohuaxiang brought back by Zhang Guozhong from Jiangjing City. After opening it, the mellow aroma overflowed.

It is basically impossible to drink such good wine in rural areas of western Xinjiang in this era.

The eyes of several good wines are a little red, such as Fusheng's daughter-in-law Li Ying...

Fortunately, the Sun family's family style is upright, good wine is good wine, there is no wine to make trouble, and most of them fall asleep after getting drunk.

In fact, everyone who is drunk knows that when he is drunk, he still understands in his heart, but he has a lot of thoughts magnified, and his hands and feet don't listen very well. Otherwise, why don't you see drunk people jumping off a building, but occasionally stumble into the water?

There is a large table full of people, and the dishes include beef, sheep, fish, rabbits and dogs, as well as radishes, cabbage, potatoes and some dried vegetables.

Green vegetables are basically unlikely to appear in the northwest countryside of this era. They are available in cities and few people can afford them.

But still rich and delicious.

Zhang Qing didn't drink, so he substituted milk tea for wine. After toasting his grandma and grandpa, he began to eat.

"Look, look at our Qingzi. We almost didn't know Qingzi just now, but seeing him eating meat now, this is our Qingzi!"

The elder sister-in-law Li Yun was overjoyed to see how delicious he was, and laughed.

The second concubine, Liu Xiu'e, was also happy, and said with a smile: "It's good to be able to eat, so capable, it takes a lot of brains, how can it be better if you don't eat more?"

Grandma Zhao Juxiang was so concerned: "Son, your mother said that the things you wrote were sold for a lot of money, what are you making so much money for? Your cousin can also read, so you teach them?"

Without Zhang Qing opening his mouth, grandpa Sun Qingshi scolded: "He has hands and feet (jue), and you also have hands and feet. Why can Feng Datou make millions, why can't you make money? They are still literate, you ask them , do they dare to say literate in front of Qingzi?"

Now that Sun Fusheng has his own mind and has not lost his dignity, he naturally defends Zhang Qing the most, and said with a smile: "Grandma, you are right, in front of Qingzi, who among us dares to say that you can read? Let it go, Qingzi is the number one scholar. We're not even geniuses."

Sun Haijiang also smiled and said: "Grandma, please forgive me. My head is getting dizzy after reading the books, and you still expect us to write books to make money?"

Zhao Juxiang was not annoyed when she heard the words, so she cursed casually: "Grandma is an X!"

Everyone laughed, and Li Yun said with a smile: "Mom, you really dare to think of good things. This kind of ability is innate, and I dare not even think about it."

Zhao Juxiang sighed and said: "It's not all born. It's not like you haven't seen the hardships that Qingzi has suffered in studying these years. Who can endure such hardships in ordinary people? It's time for him to send it."

Zhang Qing looked at Zhao Juxiang and said with a smile: "Grandma, let's not talk about this. I can earn money, which is the same as Brother Fu Sheng and the others. See the Forbidden City and the Great Wall. Didn’t Grandpa say that the big leaders can go to Beidaihe to enjoy the blessings? Let’s go too, next year.”

Zhao Juxiang couldn't help laughing when she heard this, and said, "Why do I listen, it's like dreaming. It's all the same, people like us can go to those places? Don't let people be arrested as blind people!"

Everyone laughed, and Sun Yuantang suddenly asked: "Qingzi, what about the Zhang family? I met your second uncle and third uncle the day before yesterday. They also heard about you and said they will look for you when you come back."

Zhang Qing seemed a little confused and asked, "What do you want me for?"

Sun Mantang glanced at Sun Yuehe, and said helplessly: "Your family has paid off the old debts of all these years. Your mother came back from Jiangjing and gave gifts from house to house, saying that she would go to the city to buy a house to live in. The people in your village Can you not tell your second uncle and third uncle? People in our village are also tongue-twisters, spreading the news of your plan to buy us a building to the other side, and they are all watching their jokes. Your second uncle and third uncle are very angry , said in front of me, your surname is Zhang, not Sun."

Sun Yuehe pretended not to hear, and the daughters-in-law of the Sun family also lowered their heads one after another, as if the matter had nothing to do with them, and they didn't show it off.

Zhang Qing didn't care, he laughed and said, "There are many people with the surname Zhang. I am relatives with them, not relatives. Only relatives need to take care of each other, not between relatives. Don't talk about money between relatives, because talking about money hurts feelings. I'm not a bad person who doesn't distinguish between good and evil, after reading books for so many years, I learned the four words of distinguishing between gratitude and resentment."

Saying that, Zhang Qing stood up and greeted those who had just entered the door: "Fourth Uncle, Fifth Uncle, Fourth Concubine, Fifth Concubine."

It's just that the faces of the people who entered the door were very stiff. When they heard Zhang Qing's greeting, they just nodded with an embarrassed smile.

Zhang Qing's phrase "don't talk about money between relatives" made them really unable to come down...
