Chapter 72: You can’t have a good face when dealing with ungrateful wolves(1/2)
The merchant's New Year was a silly holiday. Zhuang Mian was hospitalized when she was sick and had to let her second aunt take care of her. As a result, five men at home stared at each other.
Mr. Zhuang has never done housework since he got married. Zhuang Ganmei was spoiled since childhood and could not even make a fire. As for the two brothers Zhendong and Zhenbei, they only know how to eat.
There is no way, Zhuang Chaoying can only do the New Year’s Eve dinner.
However, Zhuang Chaoying's cooking skills are limited to cooking vegetables and other things. The things he made are really hard to swallow, and Zhuang is despised by wasting good things.
The courtyard has indeed had a fat year. Song Ying looked rich and generous. In addition to chicken, duck, fish and meat, all kinds of snacks were also moved to her house like she didn't have money, which made Lin Dongzhe wonder if she had found the money.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, Wu Jianguo and his family visited each other and even gave Lin Dongzhe and the others a "big red envelope" for the first time. When they finished their tea and sat and chatted, Song Ying and Huang Ling suddenly realized.
It turns out that Xiao Min and Wu Shanshan will graduate in half a year. Xiao Min is a junior college student in textile majoring and will soon be in the cotton spinning factory for internship.
Song Ying and Huang Ling are the team leaders of workshop one and the other are the team leaders of workshop two.
"When Xiao Min was internship, please take care of you." Zhang Amei smiled all over her face.
Song Ying and Huang Ling looked at each other: "Hey, they are all their own children, don't worry."
Xiao Min lowered her head halfway and didn't say anything.
Zhang Amei photographed her with a grudge: "Thank you Aunt Song and Aunt Huang, why don't you?"
Xiao Min opened her mouth, but was interrupted by Song Ying: "No need to thank you. We must do our best to take the apprentice. However, it is up to the individual to lead the master to practice. What you can learn depends on your personal understanding."
Zhang Amei smiled awkwardly: "Xiao Min is actually quite smart..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Wu Jianguo's loud shout: "Oh, what are you fighting there? You were all deceived by that villain Duan Tiande."
The Radiator Heroes were on TV. It happened to be released on Qiu Chuji and the Seven Monsters of Jiangnan were both defeated at Fahua Temple in Jiaxing. However, Duan Tiande took the opportunity to capture Mrs. Guo, which made Wu Jianguo screamed in anger.
Not only him, Lin Dongzhe and Xiang Pengfei were also angry and wished they could get into the TV to tell Qiu Chuji and the others.
Song Ying and Huang Ling also took the opportunity to ignore Zhang Amei and turned to look at the TV.
This made Zhang Amei so angry. She gave up such a big red envelope to ask Song Ying and Huang Ling to do something, but Wu Jianguo screamed in depressedly. Wu Jianguo was so excited that he almost jumped up on the spot. However, when he met Zhang Amei's resentful eyes, he instantly swallowed his screams.
After sitting for a while, Zhang Amei wanted to make promises to Song Ying and Huang Ling several times, but Song Ying resolved them one by one. She had no choice but to drag Wu Jianguo and Xiaojun away. Xiao Min and Wu Shanshan couldn't stay any longer and followed them out of the courtyard.
As soon as he was discharged from the hospital, Zhang Amei pinched the soft flesh on Wu Jianguo's waist and said gritting her teeth: "Look, I know you can watch TV. If you have the ability, you can buy one at home and watch it enough!"
Wu Jianguo rubbed his waist and muttered: "It's not that the family has no money."
"That little savings are all used to buy TV. What if the cotton mill doesn't pay wages for a few months, and the whole family will go to drink the northwest wind?" Zhang Amei became even more angry and pointed at the yard.
"Look at what life the Lin family lives. The big fish and meat on the table are the best snacks for entertaining guests. Look at you, you are all the same dual-employees, what life are our family living!"
Wu Jianguo said aggrievedly: "Then what can I do? Everyone's salary is almost the same. I don't earn less than Song Ying and the others. Haozi won so many championships, so the prize money is not old or young, and we can't compare."
When he talked about Qin Hao, Zhang Amei was even more angry and glared at her daughter Xiaomin: "I heard what your father said. You have asked you to contact others more, but you refused. Look, they are just 10,000 yuan before they graduated from college. If you become him..."
"Mom, why are you still having such unrealistic dreams? What do you want? Why do you like me?" Xiao Min said nodded.
"Like your dad, a terrible product." Zhang Amei said with disgust.
Wu Shanshan listened silently to Zhang Amei's nagging, her eyes were full of sorrow. She hadn't seen Zhuang Tunan for a year and met again. Although she still greeted him politely, she found that she had nothing to say to Zhuang Tunan. After chatting for a few words, she could notice that the other party's thoughts on the same problem were no longer on the same dimension as her.
"If I could go to the middle school entrance exam, would my life be different?"
"Sister, what are you thinking?"
"Oh, nothing."
"Then go home quickly, it's so cold outside."
Not long after Wu Jianguo and his family left, Wang Fang next door brought Zhou Qing to visit, but this time neither Song Ying nor Huang Ling gave them a good look.
Lin Dongzhe sarcastically sarcastically: "Aunt Wang, I see that there have been a group of little hooligans wandering around recently, so you have to let Zhou Qing be careful."
Wang Fang's face turned pale and left with shame, making Zhou Qing's little face full of reluctance. She saw that there were many snacks on the table that she had never seen before.
Zhuang Xiaoting couldn't bear it and wanted to say something, but Qin Hao shook his head at her.
"Xiaoting, I know you want to say that Zhou Qing is innocent, but you have to think about it. If something happened to you that day, your mother would go crazy."
"She did not stand up and drove away those little hooligans. It can be understood that she was timid and afraid of things, but she shouldn't have pretended not to see it. There are so many families in the alley, as long as she shouts, there will definitely be adults. But she doesn't care about your life or death at all. We are already very kind to let her reputation be ruined without saying it."
Song Ying also added from the side: "Yes, I really didn't expect Wang Fang to be such an ungrateful person. I also didn't think that if we hadn't given up a three-square-meter yard for them to build a house, they wouldn't even have a place to settle down now."
"We can't give them a good face to such ungrateful wolves."
Huang Ling rubbed Zhuang Xiaoting's hair and said nothing. She was still scared until now.
"Don't give Zhou Qing the remaining stationery in the future, and don't give her any more lessons. If you don't know how to be grateful, we should try to stay as far as possible, otherwise they will be more aggressive, just like your grandparents and others."
Zhuang Xiaoting put down the snacks in her hand and nodded with tears in her eyes.
On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Lin Dongzhe and Zhuang Xiaoting had to pick up the textbooks again. Their school started again and it was the second semester of their second year of high school. It was only one and a half years before the college entrance examination, and they had to race against time.
Qin Hao and Zhuang Tunan were not idle to give them three of them a lesson. Lin Dongzhe and Zhuang Xiaoting were fine, but Xiang Pengfei really made people's blood pressure soar.
Zhuang Tunan has taught many students, but he hasn't met a second person like Xiang Pengfei.
In Zhuang Tunan's words: "If this book can be loaded into a bullet, I would like to have a gun into your mind."
Qin Hao was so funny that he was so angry that he was so angry that he was a good man Zhuang Tunan, which shows that Xiang Pengfei's talent was not at all about studying.
Half a month later, Zhuang Tunan went to Shanghai with Qin Hao with resentment. He felt that he could no longer teach, otherwise he would not have the confidence to become a tutor again.
As we entered the second semester of junior high school, the courses became more and more heavy. Everyone in the class felt unprecedented pressure, except for Qin Hao.
Li Jia's parents have returned to the Northeast, while Li Wen stayed here and went to junior high school here. Li Jia would come to help him organize the room Sunday. After seeing that his younger brother had the ability to take care of him, Li Jia also breathed a sigh of relief.
The busy time always passes quickly, and it is midsummer. After the final exam, the students all breathe a sigh of relief, but then another question begins to linger in everyone's mind.
"Oh, time passes so fast, we're going to graduate next year."
"Yes, we will be in senior year in two months. To be precise, we only have one semester. We will have to go to the unit for an internship in the second semester of our senior year."
The topic of allocating units undoubtedly touched everyone's sensitive points, and everyone was talking about it.
"Do you have any units you like?"
"As for me, I must be going home. I will go to any unit in my family."
"Where are you, Wang Yang? Stay in Shanghai or go home?"
"If I can stay in Shanghai, I will definitely stay in Shanghai, but I just don't know how many places there are."
Although college students in the 1980s said that they were all prides of heaven, in fact, they could not fulfill their wishes because all units lack talents and the whole country. If a place like Xinjiang and the Northwest is not lucky, it would be difficult to describe it.
"Li Jia, where are you?"
A female classmate next to her touched Li Jia's arm with her elbow.
Li Jia was slightly stunned, and then said in an extremely firm tone: "I want to stay in Shanghai."
The female classmate nodded when she heard this, and then asked Qin Hao in a playful tone: "Then, should our Go champion stay in Shanghai?"
The classmates around him suddenly started to cheer.
Li Jia's face was flushed when she was said, and she could only protest in a low voice: "What does it have to do with me whether he stays in Shanghai or not."
Just when the fuss was in a mess in the classroom, the head teacher walked in.
"It's a lot of fun. Can you tell me what you're talking about?"
If you are in junior high school or high school, the teacher will obviously shut up the students, but in college, the teacher really wants to talk to you.
After listening to the classmate’s speech, the class teacher nodded.
"I also want to tell you about graduation assignment."
"If nothing unexpected happens, after the next semester starts, some units will come to the school to pick people, and the school will also arrange some communication and meetings..."
Real talents rely on grabbing, and this was even more so in the 1980s. Often units choose good people in advance, sign a contract and wait for college students to graduate. Of course, there are some people with poor professional abilities that will reach the final random allocation step. Basically, the allocated units will not be any good ones.
The class teacher spent a whole class to explain the things that needed to be paid attention to when allocating units. The students were not so confused. After the course on the last day, they went their separate ways.
Downstairs of the girls' dormitory, Qin Hao walked up to take Li Jia's suitcase as if no one was around.
"Do you have any unit you like?" Li Jia asked expectantly.
Qin Hao smiled: "It depends on which unit you want to go to."
"Hate, I'm serious about it." Li Jia said angrily.
"Do you think I'm joking?" Qin Hao spread his hands.
Li Jia pursed her lips: "I want to join the Planning Bureau, but I heard that we only have one place in our department."
"What if I squeeze you out?"
"Hmph, I'm also among the top in professional courses, why don't I compare?"
"Then let it go. If you lose, I can't coax you well."
"Whoever wants you to coax you, you should look down on others."
...
On the train back to Suzhou, Qin Hao saw Zhuang Tunan looking worried, and asked in confusion: "What's wrong with you?"
"Haozi, do you think it's better to continue taking the postgraduate entrance examination or to graduate and work?"
To be continued...
