Back to the past: Spring and Autumn Siheyuan

Chapter 281 Conversation
Apart from the sons-in-law who came to eat at his wife's home, there might be no one who ran more frequently than Li Heng.

Not for anything else, Mama Fang's cooking is really delicious.

He is also willing to accompany the father-in-law to chat with the mother-in-law, so as to relieve them of their son's loneliness after leaving school.

"Mom and Dad, you two will also come to our cafeteria for dinner on the afternoon of the [-]nd."

"If we don't go, how can anyone bring his parents-in-law to a unit dinner?"

Father Fang shook his head like a rattle and refused repeatedly.

"Dad, look at what you said. Why can't you bring your parents-in-law to the dinner? I don't care. If you two don't go, I'll come back right after I get off work and make arrangements."

Whoa!This is fooling around!

Fang's parents and Fang's mother looked at this uncle with some novelty. They had never seen such a childish tone.

Fang Xiaoya laughed so hard that she couldn't straighten her waist.

"Old Fang, alright, this time I'm in charge. On the afternoon of the [-]nd, we will join in the fun and taste the food in the cafeteria of the department store. Every day we hear your daughter say it's delicious, so we'll go to eat meat."

After his wife said that, Father Fang had no choice but to meet his son-in-law's expectant eyes and nodded.

"Hey, what are we going to do?"

"Dad, all the employees I arranged can bring their families, and it's not special."

"Okay." Father Fang smiled and waved his hands and said, "Since we agreed, we will definitely go there. What about tomorrow?"

"My girl and I both go to work tomorrow, so we won't come over at noon, and we will come back to eat after get off work in the afternoon." Speaking of this, Li Heng turned to look at Fang's mother and said, "Mom, tomorrow is the holiday, you can make us something delicious of."

"It's simple. When I get up tomorrow morning, I'll go to the market to cut some meat, and then I'll see if I can meet a chicken seller and buy a chicken."

Fang's mother likes Li Heng the most, she can say whatever she has, revealing that we are a family, inside and out, and never pretending to be polite.

Father Fang took a look outside: "It looks like it will rain this afternoon until the evening at most. Tomorrow the military parade may have to be held in the rain. I plan to go and have a look."

The National Day military parade seems to have become a tradition, and it is held every year. Although it didn’t rain last year, the sky was overcast and cloudy. This year, it can be seen that it will definitely rain, but I don’t know how many people will watch it during the rain.

If Li Heng wants to see it, it's convenient. He can just walk out of the gate of the unit, or he can just lie on the second and third floors in front of him, but he can't see the city gate building.

"Mom, don't run away when it rains tomorrow. I'll go to the market when I get up in the morning, and I'll deliver it right after I finish shopping."

"Okay, you go, you go, and cut another piece of tofu."

"okay"

Fang Xiaoya has been sitting on the sidelines without making a sound. The scene in front of her often happens, she has long been used to it, so there is no need for her to say anything.

"Er Heng, what are you going to do with winter vegetables and coal?"

"When the time comes, I plan to put the vegetables here directly." Li Heng raised his head and gestured to the neighbor next door: "Isn't the cellar already repaired? We'll buy the coal when we move here. If we buy it in advance, we can't put it away." .

Don't worry about it, I'll let the unit's mule and horse-drawn cart go and bring our food back together, so as to save you from picking up other people's carts. "

"That's okay?" Father Fang hesitated, he was always afraid of causing trouble for his son-in-law.

"There's nothing wrong with it. After the back street office issues the ticket, I can just ask someone to come on a non-busy day. It doesn't take much trouble."

……

Father Fang's judgment from looking at the sky just now was still inaccurate. Before noon, the sky had already started to rain stars.

I originally planned to go out for a stroll, but this is great, I don’t have to go anywhere, the rain is getting heavier and heavier.

Under the eaves, Weng and his son-in-law had already set up their horses and prepared to fight for a while. Fang Xiaoya was helping her mother with some handicrafts in the room. Already started to sleep soundly.

"Erheng, wait until the end of the month or the beginning of next month, can you go and see Xiaoqing?"

"Okay, I will drive the car and we will go there together on a weekend at the end of the month."

In the blink of an eye, it has been a month since Fang Xiaoqing went to military training, and his daughter and son-in-law often come back to eat and chat with them, Fang's father and Fang's mother still miss their son. After all, they have been raising them for more than ten years, and this is the first time they have been separated for such a long time.

"Dad, is Xiaoqing's dream in the future to be a teacher like you?"

"Hehe, that's what he said himself, but it's still a few years away, who will know what will happen then?"

Fang's father taught Chinese at school, and Fang Xiaoqing's major in college entrance examination was also the same. It is a matter of course for him to become a Chinese teacher after graduation. If he performed well during college, it is not impossible to stay in school to teach.

Of course, college students these days don't have to worry about getting a job in the future.

"Dad, I've read some of Xiaoqing's previous writings, which are quite good. What do you think about letting him join the newspaper after graduation?"

Father Fang, who was about to drop a chess piece in his hand, froze there when he heard this, and looked at Li Heng rather puzzled.

"Er Heng, why do you have such an idea? Is there any reason?"

"Don't get me wrong, I don't have any prejudice against being a teacher." Li Heng first explained with a smile, and then continued: "I want Xiaoqing to enter politics after graduation, so that we can support each other point."

Going into politics is actually not a particularly good choice these days. To be precise, it is not the best choice in the hearts of the common people. In fact, being a worker in a factory is the best choice and the most honorable.

The reason for this is actually related to welfare benefits. The factory distributes corresponding labor insurance supplies every month, and some factories even distribute wine on a monthly basis because of the special working environment.

The welfare benefits are much better than those of various government departments, and if they are not leaders in these departments, the salary of ordinary clerks is really not as much as that of factory workers.

Being a teacher is respected by everyone. The common people in the city, even if they barely have food or clothing, try to find ways to send their children to school. Reading can change their destiny. This is the genetic inheritance engraved in the bones of Chinese people for thousands of years.

Li Heng's current proposal is completely different from the choices of ordinary people. He did the opposite. Although he said in the end that the two of them could support each other in the future, Father Fang still had too much confusion in his heart.

"Er Heng, is there any other reason?" He asked with a serious expression after putting down the chess piece he was holding.

"Dad, I'm just chatting, and I'll just say this when I think of it. I think that the propaganda department has always been a department that the leaders attach great importance to. After Xiaoqing graduates, if he can enter the newspaper agency, or even that agency, his future will be good. Walk a lot."
