742 The time has come
So although the old Zhou family is now in a state of fragmentation, but the real life is not as good as before, there is only one Zhou Rong.

Of course, this is in the eyes of outsiders. Perhaps for Zhou Rong, being closer to Feng Huacheng in Guizhou is much happier than being thousands of miles away from Feng Huacheng in Jichun.

After writing the letter to Zhou Zhigang, the second letter was to Zhou Bingyi.

In addition to what Li Suhua wrote as a ghostwriter, Zhou Bingkun also added some of his own personal stuff.

The most important thing is to tell Zhou Bingyi clearly and emphatically, how happy Zhou Rong is after Zhou Rong got wet, and how much harm she has brought to her old parents.

As for how much Li Suhua misses Zhou Rong, she knits sweaters for Zhou Rong at home every day.

How worried Zhou Zhigang was about his daughter, and how humbled Zhou Zhigang was in order to get news from Zhou Rong.

I can't talk more about these with Zhou Bingyi.

Zhou Bingkun knew that Zhou Rong was good at coaxing people, so when he was free, he would be by Zhou Bingyi's side and put eye drops on Zhou Rong.

Zhou Zhigang has no direct contact with Zhou Rong and will not send money to Zhou Rong.

Li Suhua's idea of ​​sending money to Zhou Rong will be blocked by Zhou Bingkun.

Zhou Bingkun didn't forget that Zhou Bingyi's monthly salary was 32 yuan, so he could save [-] yuan a month.

All that is left is to guard against Zhou Bingyi's side, so that a comprehensive economic blockade can be implemented against Zhou Rong.

If you can save ten yuan a month, if you do something bad, you are a person with a partner. Why should you fill Zhou Rong's hole, so Zhou Bingkun kept reminding Zhou Bingyi to treat Hao Dongmei better.

The last letter was written to Zhou Rong, and this Zhou Bingkun did not add his own private goods.

On the contrary, Zhou Bingkun deleted his recent situation, and didn't want to report his situation to Zhou Rong.

According to Li Suhua, everything is fine at home, let Zhou Rong think about it outside, give a greeting and it's over.

"Mom, I have written all the letters for you. Can you give me the money you have saved in the past few months?"

After writing the letter, Zhou Bingkun said to Li Suhua that three months would be up, and after a few days' wages were paid, Zhou Bingkun would be able to buy a bicycle.

I wrote another letter, and was able to communicate with my husband and children. Li Suhua was in a good mood, and even joked with Zhou Bingkun: "Why, your mother raised you so much, and even provided you with schooling, and asked you to write a few letters for my mother. Do you want to make a condition with Mom?"

"This is not a condition. This is a request. If I make a condition, I will do it before writing the letter."

After Zhou Bingkun finished speaking, Li Suhua took out the small wooden box in which the old Zhou family saved money from the kang cabinet, and began to count the money: "Bingkun, you have only been paid a few months salary, is it enough to buy a bicycle?"

"That's not enough, isn't it because I'm in a hurry to use the bicycle, so I borrowed some money from my fellow workers first, and I'll pay it back slowly when I get paid later."

"With your salary of 18 yuan a month, and eating meat every three days, how much money can you save a month? When can you repay the borrowed money?"

When talking about better food, Li Suhua would babble non-stop, while Zhou Bingkun always went in one ear and out the other, pretending he didn't hear it.

"I eat sticks, sweet potatoes and potatoes all day. I work as a porter in a timber factory and I can't bear it. I'm seventeen and eighteen, and I'm not as tall as my brother. If I don't eat some meat to make up for it, then How can I do it, won't I be a dwarf in the future? If I don't pay the borrowed money, I can only blame you."

"Old Zhou's family are all hard-working and simple people, why did such a prodigal as you come out?" Li Suhua said half dotingly, half blamingly.

Talking about talking, Li Suhua has never been a strict mother.I still counted out 60 yuan and handed it to Zhou Bingkun.

"Yes, I also don't think it should. I should go to the countryside and receive re-education. Who let Zhou Rong take my chance?"

...

After paying his salary, Zhou Bingkun bought a permanent [-] big stick from the supply and marketing cooperative in the district.

Now Zhou Bingkun is one of the prettiest guys on the street in the optical film.

Originally, Zhou Bingkun was envied by others because his house was much bigger than others.

Among the group of young people who joined the work this year, they were the first to buy bicycles.

In addition, now I am doing a technical job like an electrician, which is much more decent than working as a coolie in the moving class.

In the optical film, he can be regarded as a very good guy in all aspects.

It's just that even if Zhou Bingkun is excellent in optical film, it's useless except for a few compliments from neighbors.

Having a good reputation, even improving it a little, has no effect on the grades in the marriage and love market.

As a well-known slum in Jichun City, the optical film belongs to a place where girls in Jichun are unwilling to marry.

Even their own girls are mostly unwilling to marry Guangzi.

Even if you want to, you can't do it. The girls here are all crooked melons and jujubes with regular facial features, so they can be regarded as flowers.

So when it comes to finding a partner, Zhou Bingkun may not be able to count on a blind date.

After having a bicycle and making activities more convenient, Zhou Bingkun increased the frequency of going to the entrance of the cinema to find Zheng's family for consumption.

The weather is also getting hotter, so Li Suhua often let Li Suhua eat popsicles together.

Because most of them are Aunt Zheng selling candied haws and popsicles alone.

After all, Zheng Juan needs a lot of dexterity in her hands and feet, and she has to do various handicrafts at home to make money to subsidize her family.

After Zheng Juan's food ration was canceled because she was unwilling to go to the countryside.

It costs a few dollars more every month to buy food stamps or go to the black market to buy high-priced food.

The life of the Zheng family is much more difficult than before. They need to make more money, so they are naturally much more busy.

I don't see Zheng Juan often, but the relationship between Zhou Bingkun and Aunt Zheng is very good.

If you have a good relationship with Mrs. Zheng, at least you can understand the situation of the Zheng family well enough.

The Zheng family can still support the current income and expenditure.

In a short time, Zheng Juan will not have the idea of ​​marrying herself out because she wants to reduce the burden on her family.

...

"System, sign in."

"Congratulations to the host for getting: one yuan in cash, one catty of peach cakes."

After Zhou Bingkun got up, he signed in first, went whoring for nothing, and was in a good mood all day.

Then get up and do a few sets of punches, move around, wash up, eat, and go to work.

For Zhou Bingkun, life in the late 60s and early 70s was a little less entertaining. In other respects, Zhou Bingkun still liked it.

Others are also very positive and quite satisfied, because many of these people have survived the hard times before liberation. In comparison, they are getting better and better every year, and they are all quite satisfied.

This kind of slow-paced life will still feel quite comfortable after getting used to it.

This kind of life without any disturbances passed quickly, and three years passed quickly.

The time came to the autumn of 72. In fact, it didn't take long for autumn in the Northeast. This was the end of October, and there had been several heavy snowfalls.

The temperature is already more than ten degrees below zero, and it is very suitable for winter now.

In the interim three years, not many things happened in the old Zhou's family.

But there are not many changes. In three years, the old Zhou family also bought all the "three turns and one ring."

It really turned the old Zhou's family into a first-class family in optical film.

Nominally, it was Zhou Zhigang's money, but Zhou Bingkun didn't take advantage of it. He saved 20 yuan a month, a total of 600 yuan for the past [-] months, and Zhou Bingkun helped Li Suhua save it.

In the last year of his junior year, Zhou Bingkun didn't ask Li Suhua for money, and Li Suhua didn't mention sending money to Zhou Rong either.

Because Zhou Rong was already married, without asking Zhou Zhigang or Li Suhua, Zhou Rong made her own decision and married herself to Feng Huacheng.

Li Suhua was angry with Zhou Rong at first, and then realized from Zhou Rong that Zhou Bingyi and Zhou Bingkun had also reached the marriageable age.

With the instinct of an old mother, Li Suhua knew how to save money for the marriage of Zhou Bingyi and Zhou Bingkun.

Zhou Zhigang did not go back to the Northeast to visit his relatives because of the tight schedule of the third-line project.

During the Spring Festival last year, Zhou Bingyi brought a lot of special products, such as fungus, mushrooms, hazelnuts and so on.

When I came back to Jichun once, my favorite eldest son went home to visit relatives, which relieved a lot, Li Suhua's pain of lovesickness for relatives.

"Bang bang bang, ma'am, ma'am Zheng."

Zhou Bingkun came to Zheng's house in Taiping Hutong, knocked on the door, and shouted.

"Brother Bingkun, why are you here?" It was Zheng Juan's younger brother Zheng Guangming who opened the door for Zhou Bingkun.

Because of invisible reasons, Mrs. Zheng named the child Guangming, and she can see her blessings and expectations for the child.

"I haven't seen Mrs. Zheng setting up a stall in front of the cinema for several days. I'll come over to see if something happened to your family?"

Zheng Guangming said dejectedly, "Is my mother sick?"

"What's wrong? I'll go in and see my aunt."

Sickness is considered to have hit Zhou Bingkun's gun, and Zhou Bingkun was going to go in to show Aunt Zheng.

"My mother had a fever and went to the health center to get medicine, but she still hasn't recovered after taking it for two days."

At this time, Zheng Juan also came out, and heard Zhou Bingkun's question and replied.

"Cough, cough, cough, cough, cough." At this time, there was a coughing sound from the back room.

"Let me go in and have a look." Said that Zhou Bingkun followed Zheng Juan into Zheng's house, and saw Mrs. Zheng, wrapped in two quilts, lying on the kang.

Zhou Bingkun touched Aunt Zheng's forehead, felt her pulse, and preliminarily judged that Aunt Zheng had pneumonia: "Auntie's illness is very serious, and she needs to be sent to the hospital."

Even if Zhou Bingkun figured it out, Aunt Zheng still needed to go to the hospital when there was no traditional Chinese medicine or western medicine.

Besides, even if Zhou Bingkun has a good relationship with the Zheng family now, and the Zheng family is not sick, listen to Zhou Bingkun, an electrician, who takes medicine.

"Mom's illness has not recovered. We also want to send my mother to the hospital. When we borrow money from our neighbors, we will send my mother to the hospital."

Zheng Guangming, a child who is only seven or eight years old, is sensible enough. He has black eyes and a bright heart. He knew that Zheng Juan would not be embarrassed to speak, so he said before Zheng Juan spoke.

"Then you don't need to find someone else. It's important to see a doctor. I have money on me. Zheng Juan, please help the aunt clean up. I'll go outside and call a tricycle."

Zhou Bingkun rode his bicycle out of Taiping Hutong and called a tricycle.

Then it was Zheng Auntie and Guangming who were pulled by a tricycle, and Zhou Bingkun drove Zheng Juan to the hospital on a bicycle.

After some diagnosis and treatment, it was true that Mrs. Zheng had pneumonia, and because of her old age, weak body, and serious condition, she needed to be hospitalized in the hospital for treatment.

"Bingkun, I'm so sorry for you. I asked you to spend money and work hard. We will return the money for medical treatment as soon as we earn it."

Aunt Zheng hung water in the ward, and after she settled down, Zheng Juan said to Zhou Bingkun.

"Don't talk about this, I don't need to use my money in a hurry. You take care of the aunt first, and let the aunt take care of her body. The health of the aunt is more important."

Zhou Bingkun looked at Zheng Juan with burning eyes and said.It made Zheng Juan's face turn red.

The two have been in contact for three years. Although they don't meet too often, the two haven't made their relationship clear.

But Zhou Bingkun is so special to the Zheng family, Zheng Juan naturally knows what Zhou Bingkun means.

"Bingkun, I don't even have a registered permanent residence. With your conditions, I can find a better one."

"I've decided on you. I'm not going to look for anything better, and I haven't encountered anything better. When my aunt recovers from her illness this time, I'll ask a matchmaker to come to your house to propose a marriage."

It's not popular to talk about partners here in the Northeast.

Today's timing is good, Zhou Bingkun has also reached the age of marriage, so he took advantage of the opportunity to pick it up with Zheng Juan.

If Zhou Bingkun did not marry Zheng Juan and let a beautiful woman like Zheng Juan marry someone else, Zhou Bingkun would not be reconciled.

Zheng Juan's face blushed again for a long time, and she calmed down before saying: "Then I'll tell you straight, even if I get married in the future, I can't ignore Mom and Guangming."

"If you really leave Aunt Zheng and Guangming behind, I still don't want to marry. I don't just like you because you are beautiful, but also because you are filial and kind."

I had dinner with Zheng's family in the hospital. Mrs. Zheng was hanged from the water, and Zhou Bingkun left the hospital after her fever subsided.

...

"Bingkun, why did you come back so late today? Have you eaten yet?"

Zhou Bingkun came home a little too late, after nine o'clock, so Li Suhua naturally wanted to ask a few questions.

"Something happened, I went to deal with it, and I have eaten." Zhou Bingkun sat down on the edge of the Kang and chatted with Li Suhua, which is also an old tradition between mother and son.

"I have something to do after get off work, and you don't know how to find someone. Send a letter to Mom and tell me first. You haven't come home so late, and Mom is dying of anxiety at home." Li Suhua complained.

Zhou Bingkun went to the cinema first after get off work today, and then went to Taiping Hutong. Aunt Zheng was ill and her condition was urgent, so she didn't bother to go home and explain.

"Mom, don't worry, I'll tell you something, so don't worry."

"What do you want to say?" Li Suhua said noncommittally.

"I'm getting married."

"What?" Originally, Li Suhua was also sitting on the edge of the Kang, but she stood up in surprise.

Zhou Bingkun said word by word: "I said I'm getting married."

"Who are you going to marry?" Li Suhua was still very excited.

"Of course it's my partner, otherwise who would I marry."

"When do you want to get married?"

"As soon as possible, the wedding will be held before winter."

Li Suhua firmly denied: "No, your father is not at home, without his consent, how could you make such a big decision by yourself."
