The heavens set sail from the courtyard

Chapter 241
At the end of [-], the Zhou family.

"Kun'er, clean up the house quickly, your father and brother will go home for the New Year this year."

"Mom, you have said this several times, and my ears are almost callused."

"You kid, hurry up, your dad will beat you again when he sees the mess at home when he comes home."

"My dad won't be home until tomorrow, what are you in a hurry for?"

"There are so many things to do during the Chinese New Year, so don't prepare in advance!"

"You borrow a bicycle tomorrow, and I will pick up your dad at the station with you."

"You don't know how to ride a bicycle, why do you need a bicycle?"

"I don't know how to ride, so I can't let Zheng Juan take me."

Ever since she received a letter from Zhou Zhigang and Zhou Bingyi, saying that she would go home for the New Year this year, Li Suhua was overly excited.

Sometimes they said that they need to clean up, and sometimes they said that they need to prepare the New Year's Eve dinner. In short, Wang Gang was tormented enough.

Wang Gang really wanted to tell Li Suhua that Zhou Zhigang and Zhou Bingyi would be delayed this year, and they would not be able to go home for the New Year.

But seeing the happy look of the old lady, Wang Gang didn't want to hit her hard.

The factory started a holiday a few years ago, and Wang Gang had nothing to do, so he helped the old lady with the family affairs, and sent some New Year's goods to the Zheng family by the way.

In the past two years, because there were only two people in the family, every time the Chinese New Year was too deserted, Li Suhua asked Wang Gang to invite Zheng Juan's family to have a happy New Year's Eve dinner.

This year, because Zhou Zhigang and Zhou Bingyi went home, it is not easy to celebrate the New Year together.

Wang Gang and Zheng Juan have been in a relationship for three years, and they are like glue. The two families have long agreed to their relationship, and they are waiting for the proof when they reach their age.

In the past three years, Wang Gang has been helping Zheng's family, running to Taiping Hutong when he has nothing to do, and giving the Zheng family a portion of the boxed lunch he brought from the factory.

Zheng's mother became more and more satisfied with Wang Gang, and several times even took Zheng Guangming away on her own initiative to give Wang Gang and Zheng Juan a chance to be alone.

However, the two never crossed the threshold, not because Zheng Juan refused, but because Wang Gang wanted to save the most important thing for the wedding night.

The more he got along with Zheng Juan, the more Wang Gang felt sorry for this woman, and even wanted to give her the best things in the world.

Zheng Juan's feelings for Wang Gang have gradually changed from gratitude to affection, and now she doesn't want to leave Wang Gang for a moment.

Originally, Wang Gang was old this year, so he could testify and write a letter to ask for Zhou Zhigang's opinion, but Li Suhua always felt that it was not good for his elder brother Zhou Bingyi to get married first and his younger brother to get married first.

Although Wang Gang was impatient, he also knew that Zhou Bingyi and his partner Hao Dongmei were about to have a good thing, so he was not in a hurry.

After finishing his family work in the morning, Wang Gang was carrying two bacon, ready to send it to Zheng Juan's family.

As soon as I came out of the alley of the photo, I saw Qiao Chunyan.

Wang Gang originally wanted to hide, but Qiao Chunyan also saw her.

"Brother, brother." Qiao Chunyan ran over enthusiastically, leaving Wang Gang with nowhere to escape.

"Chun Yan!" Wang Gang smiled awkwardly and stopped the bicycle.

"Brother Gan, what did you see me hiding!" Qiao Chunyan was still so careless, and grabbed the handle of the bicycle to prevent Wang Gang from leaving.

"I didn't hide from you! I didn't see it just now." Wang Gang forced a smile.

"Ah!" Qiao Chunyan said generously, "You're still embarrassed about what happened back then! I didn't worry about it, how is sister-in-law?"

"Zheng Juan is not bad. Recently, she helped her mother paste cardboard boxes. She can earn a lot every month. Living is not a problem."

Wang Gang also appreciates Qiao Chunyan's freedom and loyalty, at least, at this moment, she has not changed.

"If you have time, let's meet for dinner! I also have a date." Qiao Chunyan said carelessly.

Wang Gang's eyes lit up, and he said, "Congratulations! Just let me know when you're going to do something, and I'll give you a big red envelope."

Qiao Chunyan proudly said: "Of course, you are my mother's family."

Wang Gang relaxed, and asked Qiao Chunyan: "Which young man is it that can catch your eyes?"

"His name is Cao Debao. He used to live in optical film, but later moved away. You should know him."

Wang Gang didn't expect that Qiao Chunyan would still be with Cao Debao without his own introduction.

"It's Cao Debao! I know him and I heard that he works in a soy sauce factory, which is a good unit." Wang Gang said.

"It's okay, but during the Chinese New Year, his factory distributed a lot of soy sauce, and he also gave me a lot. I'll give two bottles to my godmother later." Qiao Chunyan said proudly.

Wang Gang smiled and said: "Okay, you can go later! My mother is at home, and I have to go to Taiping Hutong."

Qiao Chunyan said: "In the third grade of junior high school, I plan to gather some friends. Cao Debao will also come, so you too. Bring my sister-in-law."

Wang Gang nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go when I'm free."

The two stopped chatting, and Wang Gang rode his bicycle to Taiping Hutong, and unexpectedly ran into Sun Chanchao and Xiao Guoqing on the road.

They also talked about the party in the third year of junior high school, but Wang Gang couldn't refuse, so he could only agree.

In the past three years, he, Sun Chanchao and Xiao Guoqing sometimes went to work together, and their relationship has not broken.

Every time Wang Gang can get two more lunch boxes in the kitchen, he will also open meat for his brothers, so the relationship between the three families has always been very good.

It's just that as Wang Gang became more and more comfortable in the small cafeteria, the gap between the three of them gradually appeared, and it was inevitable that they would have some status.

Tu Zhiqiang also works in the wood factory, and like Sun Chanchao, they both work in the hardest unloading workshop.

Sometimes Wang Gang bumped into him, nodding his head every time to say hello, that's all.

As for Tu Zhiqiang, he wanted to get close to Wang Gang several times, saying that he would introduce a few friends to him, but was rejected by Wang Gang every time.

Rumors about Tu Zhiqiang have spread in the factory, saying that he always hangs out with some unemployed young people, and even set up a so-called "nine tigers and thirteen eagles".

Tigers refer to men, eagles are women, nine tigers are nine men, and thirteen eagles are naturally thirteen women.

Most of these 22 people are punks who escaped from the countryside and stayed in the city. They don't have a serious job.

Tu Zhiqiang wanted to recruit Wang Gang into the gang, probably because he liked his combat power.

Wang Gang refused without thinking, not because Tu Zhiqiang likes men.

Rather, he heard that the Nine Tigers and Thirteen Eagles often sleep together in the same room, and the relationship is very messy.

Wang Gang couldn't stand it, so he could only keep a respectful distance.

When he came to Zheng Juan's house, Zheng Guangming rushed out just as Wang parked his bicycle.

"Brother-in-law, you are here!" Zheng Guangming happily walked out of the house leaning on a stick for the blind, and threw himself into Wang Gang's arms.

Wang Gang hugged Zheng Guangming with a smile, and stuffed two big white rabbit toffees into his hands.

Although Zheng Guangming was blind, his other senses were extremely keen, and he was always the first to hear Wang Gang coming.

"Guangming, how are you doing at school?" Wang Gang carried Zheng Guangming into the room, while Zheng's mother and Zheng Juan were pasting paper boxes.

"The teacher said that my grades are very good, and my Braille has improved." Zheng Guangming unwrapped the candy wrapper and stuffed the toffee into Zheng Juan's mouth.

Under the arrangement of the street, Zheng Guangming entered a special school and received basic education.

He is also proud of himself and cherishes this opportunity very much. Wang Gang also heard from him that there was a deaf-mute named Chang Jinjin in the school who was going to graduate after the next year and was assigned to a soy sauce factory.

Now Zheng Guangming is thinking with all his heart that when he graduates in the future, he can also be assigned to work in the factory to reduce the burden on Zheng's mother.

"Ma'am, I brought you two pieces of bacon." Wang Gang put down Zheng Guangming, and then took out the prepared bacon.

After Zheng Juan saw the meat, she blamed Wang Gang and said, "Why did you send us meat again? We haven't finished eating the meat you sent last time. Your family has a lot of people during the Chinese New Year this year. Let's take it back!"

Wang Gang put the meat on the kang table and said, "Don't worry, eat it, my family will keep it?"

Mother Zheng was smiling, and she was very happy, not because there was meat to eat.

In the past three years, Zheng's mother and Zheng Juan have been able to earn more than 20 yuan a month by pasting cardboard boxes, which is much better than selling candied haws before.

Every so often, Wang Gang would bring some lunch boxes and even raw pork over.

Compared with the past, the days of the Zheng family have undergone earth-shaking changes.

Mother Zheng saw it in her eyes and kept Wang Gang's love in her heart. The only thing she wanted was that Zheng Juan could get married as soon as possible.

"Kun'er, when your father comes back this year, it's time for you and Juan'er to get married!" Mother Zheng said to Wang Gang while pasting paper boxes.

"I made an agreement with my mother. When my father comes home, we will arrange for Juan'er to meet. After the festival, we will talk about the certificate, without waiting for my elder brother and sister-in-law." Wang Gang sat on the kang and accompanied Zheng Juan to paste paper boxes .

"I've already prepared things for getting married, and I can pick up Juan'er on a good day."

Zheng Juan lowered her head shyly, she was very satisfied with Wang Gang's arrangement in her heart.

"Okay, okay, as long as I see you young couple getting married, even if I die now, I can rest in peace." Mother Zheng wiped away tears happily.

"Mom, it's Chinese New Year, why do you say such things, you will live a long life." Zheng Juan said, holding Zheng's mother's hand.

"Yes, yes, Zheng Juan and I will have a child in the future, and I need your help to take care of it."

Zheng's mother's health has not been very good, it is a problem that fell when she was young, Wang Gang took her to the hospital, the doctor had no choice but to go home and take care of her.

The past three years have been comfortable, and Mother Zheng's complexion has improved a lot, so she shouldn't leave early like in the TV series.

"By the way, let me discuss something with you." Wang Gang turned to Zheng Juan and said:
"I'm going to buy the house next to my house. After we get married, let my aunt and Guangming live there. In the future, it will be more convenient for everyone to live nearer."

"Where did you get the money to buy a house?" Zheng Juan asked puzzled.
