Since 1979 I have been in the tide of the times

Wang Weidong returned to Fushan. The Spring Festival is less than half a month away, and the factory is about to stop working for a holiday.

Except for the [-] workers who assisted Kyushu Co., Ltd. in building the purification workshop, the other [-] workers had to go home on vacation.

When Wang Weidong returned home, his father Wang Haifu and his father-in-law Mr. Chen had already returned.

Eldest brother Wang Xianjin and sister-in-law Qu Xiaomei also rushed to the south to celebrate the New Year. They will not go to Ussuriysk to farm until the beginning of spring.

Seeing her son come back, Li Yufeng complained: "Look at your elder brother, he earned 10,000+ yuan from farming this year. Although he didn't make as much money as you, he also bought several sets of good clothes. Very! You are such a big boss, why don't you get some good clothes?"

Wang Haifu was sitting face to face with his in-laws, Mr. Chen, playing chess. He took a puff of cigarette leisurely and said: "These days, the rich think about how to hide all day long, and the poor people think about how to pretend all day long." !"

Wang Weidong walked up to the two old men and asked while watching a game of chess: "You two old comrades are gone, who is watching the abandoned factory now? Since you two old comrades are not working, I will pay you the same wages." I can't give it!"

"Don't worry, there are plenty of people who are willing to do that job! There are several old workers from Xiangyang Chemical Plant who have taken their wives away. Hebei is warmer than Hei Province, right? They will celebrate the New Year there, and we will give them all if we don't want our wages." They!" Wang Haifu said.

Before Wang Weidong could interject, Old Chen added: "The two of us have to go back after the Chinese New Year. I'm really worried that the iron-clad gold Tibetan mastiff is still there! Besides, what's the point of living here? If it wasn't for During the Chinese New Year, Lao Wang and I will not come back either!"

Seeing his father came back, the three-year-old was very happy. He took out his own ice cream from the refrigerator and gave it to Wang Weidong.

Now that the whole family is gathered in Fushan, the house is suddenly more lively.

When eating in the evening, I deliberately brought Chen Jiwu and his wife to the house, and a dozen of them had a lively meal.

Because of his happiness, Wang Weidong drank a lot of wine and went to bed after eating.

He woke up thirsty in the middle of the night, went out of the bedroom to find water to drink, but saw his mother busy cooking in the kitchen.

"Everyone is sleeping so late, who are you cooking for?" Wang Weidong asked puzzled.

"Give it to my grandson, my grandson is hungry!" Li Yufeng replied.

"Didn't he have dinner tonight? Besides, he's already asleep, so why bother you to get up and cook?" Wang Weidong said angrily.

"My grandson likes science now! He has been outside in the cold for several hours, what if I make him something to eat?" Li Yufang said disapprovingly.

Wang Weidong hurried to the window and looked into the yard. Through the lights in the house, Wang Weidong saw a vague person sitting in the yard. There was a cannon-shaped thing pointing obliquely at the sky in front of him.

"Is that person outside now Xiaolong? What is that cannon barrel?" Wang Weidong asked in surprise.

"My grandson is promising and loves science, and he wants to be a scientist when he grows up! He likes to look at the stars now, so I spent more than 3000 yuan to buy him an astronomical telescope." Li Yufeng said as a matter of course.

"If he asks you to buy it, you buy it for him? That's more than 3000 yuan!" Wang Weidong questioned.

"I took my own money, and I didn't spend your money!" Li Yufeng said confidently.

"Didn't spend my money? You old lady only has a pension of 200 yuan a month, even if you don't eat or drink, you don't have 3000 yuan for a year!" Wang Weidong retorted.

"It's a good thing that children like science! I bought it for my old lady, what can you do to me?" Li Yufeng shouted with a raised voice.

Wang Weidong couldn't get angry in front of his mother, he opened the door and walked into the yard.

The two were arguing loudly just now, but Xiaolong didn't hear anything, his eyes were still on the astronomical telescope, concentrating on observing the stars.

It is January now, and the temperature at night is below ten degrees.It is also very cold to be outside for hours.

Wang Weidong couldn't help admiring his son's perseverance.

"Get out of the way! Let me see it too!" Wang Weidong said.

Startled by the sudden voice, Xiaolong turned his head and saw his father, and he hurriedly got up to give up his seat.

After sitting down, Wang Weidong adjusted the astronomical telescope to the half moon in the sky.

"I'm stupid, it's so big!" Wang Weidong said while watching.

"How did you rank in the final exam?" Wang Weidong asked.

"No. 30 seven." Xiaolong replied honestly.

"There are 38 people in the class, and you take the No. 30 exam, which is still second to last!" Wang Weidong said dissatisfied.

"Two more students came to the class in the past two months." Xiaolong corrected.

"So you're fourth from the bottom, and you're making rapid progress!" Wang Weidong said sarcastically.

At this moment, Li Yufeng also came out. She hugged her grandson with both hands and walked into the house.

"The noodles are already cooked, eat them while they're hot! Don't listen to your father, he was mischievous when he was young, so how can you be so promising!" Li Yufeng said.

Because the quarrel between Wang Weidong and Li Yufeng's mother and son was too loud, Wang Jinjin, who was still watching TV in the bedroom on the third floor, heard it.

He rolled on the bed laughing, tears streaming down his face.

"Our mother is really good! Someone like Xiaolong who failed in all subjects can still be a scientist!" Wang Xianjin said.

Daughter Xiaoya is sensible and obedient, and her academic performance is also very good. She is the pride of Wang Xianjin and Qu Xiaomei.

In the competition with his brothers, only Xiaoya can win now.

Qu Xiaomei sighed and said, "Children from rich families are different. They can get what they want. My mother didn't even blink when she bought an astronomical telescope worth more than 3000 yuan!"

"What's the use of earning so much money? In the future, if my son doesn't live up to his expectations, he won't be able to keep the family business!" Wang Xianjin said.

"Don't gloat, he's your brother! Without Weidong, how could our Xiaoya have such good conditions for studying?" Qu Xiaomei said.

Wang Weidong returned to the kitchen to serve himself a bowl of noodle soup.

He sat opposite his son and asked, "Aren't you cold after staying outside for a few hours?"

"When I lived in the village, I often went to herd sheep with my classmates in winter, and it was often windy and snowy." Xiaolong said disapprovingly.

Li Yufeng stroked Xiaolong's head and said, "My grandson has a good heart and can endure hardships. He will be successful when he grows up!"

Wang Weidong lamented in his heart, people who can endure hardship are easy to be content with the status quo, how can people with good intentions make money?

He is now giving up on his son, and it would be nice to live a peaceful life when he grows up.

In the next few days, Wang Weidong saw Xiaolong observing the stars with the astronomical telescope in the yard every night. Every day until midnight, even Wang Weidong began to admire his son's perseverance.
