Reborn in the red age

Chapter 56 Father Li: Wait until you come back and see how I whip you
Postmen in this era worked very hard. They rode a broken bicycle over mountains and ridges in various communes and between brigades. There were some mountainous roads where they could not ride a bicycle, so they carried the bicycle on their shoulders and trudged all the way, just to deliver the goods. Letters are delivered to every household, and outsiders cannot understand the hardship involved.

The postman who delivered the letter to the Qingshan Brigade was a dark-skinned middle-aged man. He was missing two front teeth, which he probably knocked off while delivering the letter.

In this month, I came to the brigade twice to deliver letters, but nothing happened to Qingfeng Li, which made Qingfeng Li think that his father and mother had forgotten him.

"Li Zhiqing, your family has sent you a letter. It's in the brigade office. Remember to pick up the letter after work." When work was over, the squad leader came to Qingfeng Li and informed Qingfeng Li of the letter from his family.

He raised his hand and looked at his watch, and found that it was only 10 minutes until the end of work. Li Qingfeng smiled and gave the team leader a cigarette: "It's still about ten minutes until the end of the day. I can go directly there now."

After looking at the watch on Qingfeng Li's wrist, and then at Qingfeng Li's work progress today, the team leader took the cigarette without saying a word, and just waved his hand.

After receiving the permission, Qingfeng Li thanked him, patted the holes in his clothes, and headed towards the brigade headquarters happily.

Three letters came at once. After returning to the Educated Youth Courtyard, Li Qingfeng picked up the top letter, opened it and read it.

The letter was written by the second sister. The reason is very simple. Li's mother never went to school and only learned to read in night school after liberation. The handwriting was crooked. Li's mother felt that her handwriting was not good, so she could not write Don’t write.

The letter first briefly talked about the situation at home. Everyone was doing well. They took good care of themselves in the country and didn't have to worry about the family.After talking about home, he also mentioned that Boss Li’s marriage has been decided and he will get married next month.

Mother Li has almost finished making the cotton clothes and trousers for Qingfeng Li. There is still some cotton left after making the clothes. Mother Li plans to get more cotton to make a thicker quilt. The eldest sister and the younger sister are making Qingfeng Li. Knit sweaters and trousers and send them over when they are finished.

At home, besides complaining about Mr. Li's father-in-law being too arrogant and looking down on the Li family, Mother Li was also complaining about the cold winter in the Northeast.

At the end of the letter, it was said that the private money that Qingfeng had left with his father had been discovered by Li's mother. In addition to the money that Qingfeng had left for Mr. Li and his younger sister, Li's mother had added some more and collected 40 The yuan was remitted together, and Qingfeng Li was asked to quickly take it out after receiving the money order.

In addition to remittances, Li's mother also exchanged some national food stamps in envelopes during this period, and asked him to be careful not to throw away the envelopes.

I picked up the envelope and poured it out. There were a few national food stamps in it. They were scattered in various denominations. It turned out that Li's mother had exchanged them from door to door.The fragrance is far away and the smell is near. After all, he is his own son. When he sees him every day at home, he feels annoyed. When he sees him, he wants to curse. After traveling far away, he has been worried about him in his heart.

After reading the letter written by his second sister, Li Qingfeng was very moved. Looking at the sunny sun outside, Li Qingfeng missed his parents in the future. He thought about his sudden disappearance. His parents must be sad, right?I still don’t know if my parents have gotten over the shadow of their disappearance.

Qingfeng Li's emotion was awakened by the returning educated youths. Looking at the people returning with hoes, Qingfeng Li shook his head to dispel the thoughts in his mind and opened the remaining two letters in his hand to read.

One of the remaining two letters was a remittance slip, and the other was sent by Li's father. When he opened it, he found that Li's father scolded Qingfeng Li bloody and threatened to wait for Qingfeng Li. When he came back from the countryside, he had to hang Li Qingfeng from the beam and beat him with a belt.

Reading Li's father's letter, Li Qingfeng laughed happily. He didn't know how much scolding Li's father received from Li's mother at home, but he was willing to spend money to write a letter and send it to himself.

Li Qingfeng didn't care at all about Li's father's threats. By the time he got home, the college entrance examination would most likely be over. By then, I would be a fresh college student, and you, Old Li, would you be willing to hang me up and whip me?

After sisters Ma Wenhui and Hu Jiabao saw the food stamps and remittance slips scattered on the table, Ma Wenhui showed an expression of envy on her face and said sourly: "The letter from your family not only sent you food stamps, but also wired money. , your family is so kind to you."

"Yeah, there's a remittance slip. Then you have to go to the post office quickly with your ID to get the money back." Hu Jiabao didn't have any envious expression. Her family was in good condition, and she was subsidized by her family when she went to the countryside, and she would be sent money every month. About ten yuan each.

The two of them spoke without deliberately lowering their voices. The entire educated youth courtyard heard about Qingfeng Li's family remitting money to him. Everyone had different expressions, some were envious and some were jealous.

"What, how can I be so used to it? I've only been here for a month and I'm remitting money. Those who didn't know it thought they were from high-ranking officials' families." Sun Guoqing curled his lips with a disdainful expression on his face, but the envy in his eyes was There is no way to hide it.

Qingfeng Li smiled and nodded at Hu Jiabao. After collecting the remittance slips and food stamps on the table, he said to everyone, "I'm going to the commune tomorrow. Is anyone going to go with me?"
