Go back to 1980 and enjoy it

Chapter 265 Full of strength [6000 words]

The Zhang family came to the county town, but did not stay long.

Among them, the eldest brother, sister-in-law and second brother and sister-in-law only stayed for two days and then hurried back to do business, because they came up on the eighteenth day of the first lunar month, and they could catch up with Longtanwei on the twenty-first day when they returned on the twenty-first day.

A store like theirs usually doesn't do much business, but when it comes to the fair day, business is booming.

So it’s okay to keep the door closed for a day or two, but it must be open for business on Fair Day. Firstly, you can make more money, and secondly, you can cultivate loyal customers.

After all, customers may come to your store to buy something on this special day, only to find out that you are not open today. This is a wasted trip for the customer, and the shopping experience is naturally not good.

It doesn't matter once in a while, but if it happens more often, ghosts will come to your store to buy things.

After the eldest brother and sister-in-law and the second brother and sister-in-law returned, Zhang's father and Zhang's mother took their grandchildren and two younger sons to stay for three more days, and then went back.

People's Cinema.

A movie has just ended, and the audience is walking out of the cinema while reminiscing about the plot of the movie.

At this moment, curses came from the cinema:

"Diaozhizhibai!"

"Dare to poke the star!"

"What's going on?"

"How many do you make?"

"..."

Immediately afterwards, several social youths chased each other out of the cinema and struggled with each other. Each of them struck more fiercely than the other, causing other spectators to scatter in shock.

This scene was seen by Deng Yuntai and Zhang Xiuping who were diagonally opposite.

From last year to this year, they have witnessed more than ten fights.

Zhang Xiuping immediately sighed: "No wonder dad keeps telling us not to go out when nothing happens. Even if we really need to go out, don't go out alone. This county is really different from our countryside. It's really chaotic."

The Bobai countryside in the early 1980s was indeed fine, but by the late 1980s and after the 1990s, everything was the same.

Deng Yuntai said: "Anyway, we are protected by Grandpa Zhang. As long as we do our job properly and don't go out to cause trouble, no matter how chaotic it is, it's none of our business."

While the two were talking, the fight quickly shifted to the battlefield. After all, the side with fewer people was outnumbered by the side with more enemies, so they retreated strategically.

The party with more people will naturally take advantage of the victory and pursue it, disappearing in front of everyone in the blink of an eye.

If Deng Shirong saw this scene, he would sigh in his heart. The end of these young people in society is coming soon. The most severe and largest crackdown on criminal elements that seriously endanger social security since the founding of the People's Republic of China is about to begin.

At this moment, Zhang Xiuping suddenly felt sick and felt like vomiting, so she couldn't help but rush into the bathroom next to her.

Deng Yuntai was shocked when he saw this, and followed him anxiously: "Mei Ping, what's wrong with you? What's wrong with you?"

Zhang Xiuping retched a few times, but couldn't vomit anything out. After she recovered, she said, "I don't know, I just felt sick and wanted to vomit all of a sudden."

The commotion here also alarmed the hotel staff. Zhang Guangzong also came over and asked a few questions with concern. When he heard Zhang Xiuping's words, he couldn't help but smile and said: "Mrs. Boss, you have already given birth to a child, why do you still have no experience at all?" Look, I think you are pregnant!"

Hearing what Grandpa Zhang said, Zhang Xiuping couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. She thought about the date of her last menstrual period, and then realized that it had been postponed for more than a week. She might actually be pregnant, and she couldn't help but be pleasantly surprised. Said: "There are so many things going on during this period, I didn't think of this at once."

Deng Yuntai was happy when he heard this and immediately said: "Let's go, I will go to the hospital with you for a check-up."

It just so happened that it was not lunch time, so Deng Yuntai explained it and took his wife to the maternal and child health care.

Forty minutes later.

Deng Yuntai helped his wife out of the maternal and child health care department with a smile on her face, and warned: "Pingmei, starting from today, you have to eat well. In dad's terms, you try to eat a variety of foods, so that the nutrition will be balanced and the child will be born." Then you will be healthy."

Zhang Xiuping nodded and smiled: "I know, when I was pregnant with Xiaodong'er, my dad prepared so many delicious foods for me, and the effect was very obvious. After our Xiaodong'er was born, her body was much stronger than other children in the village. ”

"I'll tell Master Zhang when I get back and ask him to make you a nourishing soup every day."

"Um!"

Originally, whether it was now or in future generations, generally no one would tell the public until the fetus was stable in the third month of pregnancy.

However, this time I went to the hospital for a check-up in front of everyone. It was difficult to hide whether I was pregnant. In addition, I had to help the master stew soup and cook dishes, so I had no choice but to make it public. This kind of thing is not a good idea. There's nothing wrong with that either.

Knowing that the landlady was indeed pregnant, all the hotel employees congratulated her.

After all the other employees went back to work, cousin Liu Aihong secretly said to Zhang Xiuping: "A Pingmei (local people generally don't call me cousin-in-law or sister-in-law, they all call me so-and-so sister. This is the general name." "

Zhang Xiuping said in shock: "Cousin, why didn't you say anything just now, so that we could check it out together!"

Liu Aihong said embarrassedly: "I don't understand this either. I didn't think about the pregnancy at first. After you went to the hospital for a checkup, I remembered that when I came back home the second day, my mother seemed to have told me that if If menstruation is suddenly delayed for a few days, it is very likely that I am pregnant, so I should pay more attention to it. "

Zhang Xiuping said: "Then you go tell your cousin and ask him to take you to the maternal and child health care for a check-up."

Liu Aihong looked at the time, shook her head and said, "The meal will be here soon. After the meal, we will check again in the afternoon."

Zhang Xiuping thought for a while and said, "That's okay, then I'll say hello to them and you can help make some tea and some wine later. Don't do anything else yet."

Liu Aihong said: "No need to say hello, I'm in good health, it doesn't matter if I do this."

Zhang Xiuping said: "Cousin, you can't be careless. I heard that the fetus is unstable in the early stages of pregnancy, so it's better to be careful."

"How can we rural people be so rich? There are many pregnant women working in the village. Even if they are about to give birth, they are still working in the fields. I am not in the way. I don't know if I am there. No. It needs to be special.”

"That's true, then be careful!"

"Ok, I know."

afternoon.

Liu Aihong's test results showed that she was indeed pregnant. It was quite lively to have two pregnant women suddenly appear in the hotel.

Zhang Xiuping said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, you can eat with me next. Pregnant people should eat a variety of foods, so that the child can absorb balanced nutrients and the body will be stronger."

When Zhang Xiuping was pregnant, Bu Dashi was learning cooking from his uncle. He knew that his uncle would make nourishing soup every day and eat different dishes every day, so when he heard his cousin say this, he smiled and said: " Aihong, you are in luck this time!”

Liu Aihong didn't understand the true meaning of her husband's words at the time, but a few days later, she understood.

Originally, the working meals in the hotel were not that bad. Meat was included in every meal. It was hundreds of times better than the food she had at her parents' home.

However, after she had a meal for pregnant women with her cousin-in-law, she realized how big the gap between people was.

In their village, people eat the same food as usual when they are not pregnant. Only after giving birth can they eat a few chickens. This was only in the past two years. In the past, they could only eat a chicken after giving birth. To replenish the body is considered good.

But after my cousin-in-law became pregnant, she had a delicious and nourishing soup every day. The dishes were also various delicacies such as chicken, duck, and fish. The standard of the food was even worse than that of the former big landowners. It was really scary.

She ate with her cousin-in-law, which made Liu Aihong feel embarrassed.

Does a village girl like her deserve to eat like this?

If she told her parents about this later, they would be shocked too.

Naye Village.

Under the wooden shed of his home, Deng Shirong was smoking a hookah while listening to accountant Deng Changqian say: "Jiu Gong, after a month of donations, this donation has basically no place in the honor list of student aid, whether it is an individual ranking or a village ranking. What has changed and what should be done next?”

Deng Shirong stuffed tobacco into the mouth of his chimney and asked, "Who are in the top ten individual donations now?"

"The first ranked person is Deng Changbao from Jifeoling. He initially donated 688 yuan, and later added an additional 200 yuan, for a total donation of 888 yuan. The second ranked person is Deng Changxiong from Bangba Village, who donated 688 yuan. Yuan Gui, uncle Yunfa and Deng Changshou from Yangdipo Village were tied for third place, and they both donated 388 yuan.”

Deng Changqian is very familiar with the list. He named them one by one: "The fourth one is Uncle Yunfei from Macun, who donated 288 yuan. The fifth one is Deng Changming from Zhangcun, who donated 268 yuan. Deng Changji from Guanchong Village donated 228 yuan.

The seventh place was Uncle Yuntian from Longjing Village, who donated 188 yuan. The eighth person was Deng Changqing from Shanggaohang Village, who donated 168 yuan. The ninth place was Deng Changli from Umeda Village, who donated 138 yuan. The tenth place was Deng Changnian from Zhadu Village, who donated 100 yuan. "

Deng Shirong nodded secretly after hearing this. The top ten people were all members of his clan, the Ye Deng clan, which had relatively good economic development at present. They were either engaged in business or the whole family ate commercial food. Their donation amount was more than 100 yuan.

“What is the total of all donations so far?”

"There are 6,632 yuan."

Deng Shirong nodded and said: "This is already a large amount of money. Let's stop this year's donation. We will make a second donation during the Spring Festival next year. Please help me remember a thousand and make another statement. If this year's donation is If the student donation is enough, then there is no need to say anything. If it is not enough, I will take care of the difference.”

Deng Changqian perked up after hearing this. Jiu Gong ranked first in donations. The whole clan was mentally prepared for this.

After all, according to most estimates, Jiu Gong should be the richest man in their Yedeng clan, and he is also the new clan leader. He initiated the donation for education, so it is normal that Jiu Gong ranks first in donations. matter.

But Deng Changqian didn't expect that Jiugong not only ranked first in donations, but also said the truth. In the words of later generations, he suddenly rose to the top.

Although there is a lot of money donated this year and it is unlikely that Jiugong will be able to cover it all, having this promise is still different from not having it.

Deng Changqian nodded and said: "Okay Jiu Gong, then I will complete the list when I get back and post it at the entrance of the ancestral hall."

Deng Shirong warned: "In addition to the list posted in the ancestral hall, you can also make another donation list and put it in the clan's archives. This is ironclad proof that our Ye Deng clan is united and seeks common development. You may not know when it will be available in the future." Use it.”

Deng Changqian said quickly: "Jiu Gong, I will make three lists. One will be posted at the entrance of the ancestral hall, one will be kept for the clan's archives, and the other will be kept by me to prevent loss."

Deng Shirong hummed, put the chimney aside, then went back to the room and took out a thousand yuan to give to Deng Chang.

Deng Changqian received the money, chatted with Jiu Gong for a few more words, and then went back to sort out the donation list.

The next day.

The complete honor list of donations for scholarships was posted in the ancestral hall of the Naye Deng family, instantly attracting the attention of many tribesmen.

This complete list has a total of four red sheets of paper. It is introduced at the beginning that donating scholarships was initiated and established by the clan leader Deng Shirong. The purpose is to encourage the children of the clan to study hard and become talents useful to the country, and at the same time, it also provides Contribute to the development of the Deng clan.

Next is the village donation ranking and the individual donation ranking. The top of the village ranking is undoubtedly Naye Village, the second is Bangba Village, the third is Jimaoling Village, and the fourth is Yangdi Po Village, the fifth is Ma Village, the sixth is Zhang Village, the seventh is Guanchong Village, the eighth is Shanggaohang Village, the ninth is Meitian Village, and the tenth is Zhadu Village.

The villages that rank in the top ten are basically supported by the bosses of the village.

As for the list of individual donations, Deng Shirong is naturally at the top of the list, donating 1,000 yuan.

The next top ten rankings are the rankings that Deng Changqian "reported" before, but they are all moved back one place.

At the end of the list, the clan leader Deng Shirong’s words of truth were emphasized, which convinced all the villagers.

Naye Deng's donation to support students is very impressive. Not only the tribesmen named Deng are paying attention, but also the villagers with other surnames in Bangjie Brigade, and even many villagers from other brigades are paying attention.

Now that the final list is out, the total donation amount is as high as more than 7,000, which makes everyone who is paying attention to this list secretly stunned.

Needless to say, the clan members surnamed Deng are all proud of their clan's performance.

People with other surnames all showed envy when talking about this matter. They also hope that their clan can do this kind of thing. Unfortunately, in this era, if they want to donate money to support education, there is no prestige. It is difficult to achieve success under the leadership of a highly capable clan leader.

Even if it can be done reluctantly, there probably won't be many clan members willing to donate.

While Naye Deng's donation list for education has always been at the top of the topic list in Shili and Eight Townships, the Tomb-Sweeping Festival is coming soon, and the new year's mountain shoveling ancestor worship activities are going on enthusiastically in Bobai Realm.

The concept of clan is relatively strong in the Bobai realm, and the activities of shoveling mountains and worshiping ancestors are taken more seriously than many places.

As mentioned above, it is normal for Bobai people not to come back to celebrate the New Year during the Spring Festival. However, when it comes to shoveling mountains during the Qingming Festival, those who work outside will most likely rush unless they really cannot get leave. Back.

Even when students are in class, it is very common for more than half of the students in the class to skip class to attend ancestor worship. Even the teacher will not say anything. Basically, when this happens, Letting the rest of the students move freely is also a holiday in disguise.

In such an atmosphere, Deng Yuntai and Zhang Xiuping naturally rushed back to shovel the mountain.

"Okay, great!"

Knowing that his eldest daughter-in-law was pregnant again, Deng Shirong immediately beamed.

After all, he was born in the Republic of China, and he still attaches great importance to carrying on the family line. This has nothing to do with favoring sons over daughters. As long as his daughter-in-law has more children, it doesn't matter whether they are grandchildren or granddaughters. Anyway, he has five sons. , normally it is impossible to cut off his lineage.

As long as someone inherits the incense, that's enough!

Seeing that her father-in-law was happy, Zhang Xiuping smiled and said, "Dad, there is also my cousin, she is also pregnant, the date should be about the same as mine."

After hearing this, Deng Shirong naturally cheered again and again. His third sister had already become a grandmother, but no matter how close her grandson was, she couldn't compare to her biological grandson. If A Liumei could give birth to a son, I don't know how happy her third sister would be.

After feeling happy, Deng Shirong warned: "Mei Aping, this is your second pregnancy, so you should have some experience. You should eat well and sleep well in the county, and you should also be careful not to be too tired. What did you do when you were at home before?" You did it this time, do you know?"

Zhang Xiuping nodded and said with a smile: "I know, Dad."

Deng Yunzhen smiled and said to Xiao Dong'er: "Xiao Dong'er, you will have a younger brother soon, do you like it?"

Xiaodong'er said in a sweet voice, "I like it!"

Zhang Xiuping smiled and answered: "Then Xiaodong'er will take care of his brother from now on!"

After all, Xiao Dong'er was only one year and four months old, and she obviously still didn't understand what taking care of meant. She blinked her big eyes and asked, "Mom, where is my brother?"

Zhang Xiuping said with a smile: "My brother is still in mother's belly!"

Xiaodong'er heard the words and walked over, stretched out her little hand to touch her mother's belly, and shouted: "Brother, brother!"

Everyone couldn't help laughing when they saw this.

The next day.

After the family was ready, they took the tools and sacrifices and went to shovel the mountain.

As usual, Deng Shirong did not let his eldest daughter-in-law go to those distant mountains, so he left her at home to take care of Xiao Dong'er.

Due to Deng Shirong's seniority, his family's hills were smaller than those of other families in the village. It only took one morning to shovel those few hills.

In the afternoon, when we were shoveling my parents and my deceased wife, the whole family went out together, including the pregnant eldest daughter-in-law and Xiao Dong'er, as the mountain was right opposite our home.

Although Deng Shirong's parents were not buried together, the two earth tombs were connected together. They were shoveled together when the mountain was shoveled, and even the sacrifices were shared.

After clearing the weeds from the earthen grave, Deng Shirong squatted in front of his father's earthen grave and said, "Dad, Mom, we are here to see you again. First of all, I want to tell you two pieces of good news. Your eldest grandson's wife is pregnant again." , our family is expecting another child this year.

Also, Dashi's kid also got married last year. I was the matchmaker for him. He is from Taipingpo Village, Qing Brigade. She is a girl with a good personality. She is also pregnant now. The third sister is also going to be a grandmother this year.

You must keep them safe and give birth to their children smoothly..."

After talking to his parents for a few minutes and explaining all the changes in the family over the past year, Deng Shirong called his son and daughter-in-law and asked them to talk a few words.

Finally, after three bows, Deng Shirong and his children packed up the sacrifices and came to his late wife's tomb, which was not far away.

Basically, they repeated the previous work, and then Deng Shirong also repeated what he had said to his parents before.

Deng Yuntai also told his mother the good news that his father had become the clan leader. Although the clan leader was not an official, in rural areas, the clan leader's appeal to the clan members was much stronger than that of the brigade secretary. Who could become the clan leader? , which proves that people can do quite well in rural areas.

After paying homage to the deceased wife, the family packed up the sacrifices and went home.

The next day.

Deng Yuntai and Zhang Xiuping took the bus to Bobai, and Deng Yunzhen and Xiao Donger went up with them.

With the arrival of Qingming Festival, the low temperature weather that has lasted for several months has finally begun to warm up. In addition, her sister-in-law is now pregnant again, so Deng Yunzhen decided to take her little niece with her to help if necessary.

The twenty-fifth day of the second lunar month is a big day worthy of being remembered by the entire Naye Village.

On this afternoon, a full line of twenty trucks drove into Naye Village, including the truck of Deng Shirong's second nephew Bu Zhongshi.

These twenty trucks transported a total of 36,000 lychee saplings to Naye Village, all of which are Guiwei varieties.

It can be said that this time the whole village purchase in Naye Village has sold out all the Guiwei lychee saplings in Xinguang Farm. It will take at least two or three years to recuperate before it can continue to sell lychee saplings.

Because these lychee saplings are cultivated from ready-made lychee trees. These are the main stems that grow best on the lychee tree. If too many branches are cut, the yield of the lychee tree will be greatly affected. So I have to rest and recuperate.

After the lychee saplings were brought back, each household went out one after another to transport their own share of the lychee saplings to the litchi mountain that they had cultivated last year.

Early the next morning, the whole village began to plant cinnamon-flavored lychees.

Such a big movement naturally caused a huge sensation in these ten miles and eight villages.

Not to mention the villages with the foreign surname, there are other villages with the surname Deng. Except for Naye Village, other villages have only cultivated orchards, or are in the process of cultivating them. Even if they want to plant them, there are no saplings for them to plant. kind.

I can only watch the brothers in Naye Village planting trees.

Of course, they can't keep up with the lychee trees, but they can still do the watermelons.

So, while people in Naye Village were busy planting lychee trees, villagers in other villages who had already cultivated orchards started planting watermelons.

In short, under the influence of Deng Shirong, every household in the entire Bangjie brigade planted watermelons this year.
