Siheyuan: living in a prosperous era

Chapter 113 Reading is the way out
When Yang Shuning arrived home, Yang's mother and An Xin were still washing diapers. Ding Qiunan was holding the little watermelon and teasing it with her eldest brother.Yang Shuhao guided the Ouyang twins to read the little book quietly on the sofa.Wang Xue is still resting in the bedroom.

A pleasant atmosphere.

"Big brother has gone home after class."

Yang Shuchen goes to night school every day and can only get home from get out of class at 08:30 every day.

"Second brother, I ordered some wooden toys before and got them back today. I can play with them when Little Watermelon gets older."

Yang Shuchen saw Yang Shuning coming in, and after speaking, he pointed to a package in the corner.

Yang Shuning walked over and opened the package and saw that it was similar to the children's toys of later generations, except that one was made of plastic and the other was made of wood.

"Thank you for your hard work, brother. How are you doing at night school? You haven't studied for so many years. Can you keep up?"

Since Yang Shuning hoped that Yang Shuchen could obtain a high school diploma, he was afraid that Yang Shuchen would not be able to keep up with the study progress.

"Well, my class is basically made up of people like me who are already working. They are basically recommended by our work units. The teacher doesn't expect us to study hard and just asks us to do well. As for the diploma, it's [-]% Eighty-nine is no problem.”

Yang Shuchen is very satisfied with the current night school. The teacher does not expect the students to study as seriously as ordinary high school students. Moreover, the students are all recommended by their employers. Basically, once the graduation time comes, regardless of the students' grades, Graduation certificates will be issued.

If Yang Shuchen hadn't already joined the army before and later became a professional, Yang Shuning could have found someone to buy a high school diploma directly, and it was genuine.

Unfortunately, if I really bought it, the graduation date would not match up with Yang Shuchen's resume. It was impossible for Yang Shuchen to still go to high school when he joined the army. If someone were not careful, someone would report it, and the gain would outweigh the loss.

It is better to let Yang Shuchen go to night school with peace of mind. After attending night school and getting a high school diploma, he can be recommended by the organization to go to the party school to get a college degree. It is just not as valuable.

"Second brother, what did Xu Damao want from you just now?"

Yang Shuning was not there when Yang Shuchen was eating. He didn't see Yang Shuning when he came back from night school. He was also curious that Yang Shuning had been drinking with Xu Damao for so long.

"Haha, Brother Mao wants to make progress, and he is very excited to see that everyone in our family has reached the cadre level."

Yang Shuning was talking about a very realistic situation. In the past, Yang's mother was the leader of the supply and marketing cooperative in the Yang family, and the neighbors in the courtyard didn't have any special feelings.

But since Yang Shuning graduated from university and entered the 301 Hospital, Wang Xue became a cadre at the Beijing Railway Bureau, and Yang Shuchen became a cadre at the District People's Armed Forces Department, the Yang family's situation was noticed by their neighbors.

If in the past the neighbors still wanted to let their children learn from Yi Zhonghai and Liu Haizhong to become high-level workers, now everyone wants to let their children study hard, be admitted to technical secondary schools, and become cadres after graduation.

He was a good cadre. Without seeing Yang Shuning, he casually arranged for An Xin to join the radio station and become a broadcaster. He just sat in the office every day. He didn't have to sweat like rain, he only had to sit on the chair and read the manuscript.

Especially the transformation of the Zhu family, the neighbors saw it even more. Zhu Shitou, a man with inconvenient legs and feet who had to use crutches to walk, turned out to be a warehouse keeper. Although the salary was not high, he could work as well as Liu Fang. Together we hold up the Zhu family.

In the past, the Zhu family was still a poor household, but now Zhu Shitou and Liu Fang have a monthly salary of 18 yuan, which adds up to 36 yuan. They have been lifted out of poverty, and their lives are getting better day by day.

For people in the Siheyuan, they deeply realize that studying is the way out and an opportunity for them to turn around.Although serving as a soldier is also a way out, the places are limited and require competition. It is not something you can do just because you want to. Studying is the most realistic opportunity.After being admitted to a technical secondary school, the state will allocate jobs after graduation. There is no need to take the jobs of the parents. Instead, the job quotas of the parents can be given to the less promising children in the family, so that the younger generations can all have stable jobs.

"Brother Damao wants to make progress? I didn't expect that his job as a projectionist is very good, isn't it? Member of the Eighth-level Staff, there are so many people who want to be one but never have the chance!"

Yang Shuchen was a little surprised when he heard that Xu Damao wanted to make progress. Although the job of a projectionist was hard, it was lucrative. Every time he went to the countryside, he was entertained with delicious food and drinks by the commune. In addition to the thank-you gifts provided by the commune, there were also widows in the commune. Hurry over here.

In Yang Shuchen's view, Xu Damao's decision was out of his mind. Although it is good to be a cadre, it is not good to be a low-level cadre. The salary income of many cadres is not as good as that of workers, let alone compared with projectionists.

"Brother, Xu Damao is thinking of doing work instead of working as a projectionist. In the future, if he has the opportunity to find a few apprentices and set up a projection unit, he can be the unit leader."

Yang Shuning said what he had pointed out to Xu Damao.

"You taught him, right? Otherwise, he is not in the administrative rank and has only been working for more than a year. He will definitely not know about these condoms."

Yang Shuchen knew immediately that Xu Damao was under the guidance of Yang Shuning.

"Well, I gave him some advice. After all, he is pretty good to our family, and he even gave us a radio ticket."

"Sister-in-law, you take this ticket first. If you have time tomorrow, buy the radio back. Let Aunt An Xin use it first. The industrial voucher system will be implemented soon, and we can't waste it."

After Yang Shuning and Yang Shuchen finished speaking, they spoke to Ding Qiunan and gave her the radio ticket.

"Okay, I'll buy it tomorrow. Husband, take the ticket first and give it to me later."

Ding Qiunan was holding the little watermelon, and it was inconvenient to reach for the ticket, so she let Yang Shuchen take it first.

"Brother, let's take some time to go hunting again. It's time to visit my father's comrades in arms. It's not appropriate to give him anything else. It's good to give him some pork or something."

Yang Shuning would visit his father's comrades regularly. Relationships also require contact. If they don't interact with each other for a long time, the relationship will fade.

"Okay, do you have Sunday off? How about we go on Sunday and take Aunt Anxin and the others there so that they don't have to take a long bus ride when they go to visit Uncle Ouyang."

"Also, second brother, will Xigua's full moon wine be held? If so, we should inform the elders."

Yang Shuchen already likes hunting, not to mention that he can eat more meat. The most important thing is that the two brothers can be safe together.

"Forget it, we won't hold the Full Moon Wine Festival. If we hunt wild boar on Sunday, we can just mention it to the elders when we visit. Besides, they have all come to see Xigua after he was born. It would not be appropriate to hold the Full Moon Wine Festival again. .”

Yang Shuning felt that the elders could not be allowed to attend the ceremony twice, and there were very few people holding full-moon banquets nowadays, so it was unnecessary.
