Chapter 3 Going to the Countryside

Behind him, the man obviously cared about his daughter, but he didn't say anything or ask anything.

After all, his daughter is a grown-up girl, so he has to avoid certain topics.

Immediately, the man quietly retreated from the room, leaving ample space for the mother and daughter.

The same goes for asking your mother-in-law. Anyway, if your mother-in-law knows, it means he knows.

"dad?"

As soon as the man exited the room, he bumped into his eldest son who heard the sound.

"Was it Xiaorong who was crying just now? What happened to her?"

Zhou Bingyi, the eldest son of the Zhou family, has very regular facial features and handsome features, and he naturally has the air of a scholar.

As the eldest brother, Zhou Bingyi still cared about his sister very much. When he heard the cry, he stopped reading and ran over quickly.

Zhou Zhigang silently shook his head.

He didn't know why his daughter was crying.

It's so good, why are you crying?

There was no warning at all.

To say it was because he couldn't bear to part with him, his family had known about his departure to the southwest a few days ago. If he really wanted to cry, he wouldn't wait until now.

Seeing his father shaking his head silently, Zhou Bingyi also showed a little confusion in his eyes.

This morning, Zhou Rong was fine. She got up early in the morning. Not long ago, he saw his sister in the yard.

Why did you cry suddenly and so sadly?

In the room, Li Suhua looked at her stubborn daughter and was suddenly moved and helpless.

She saw that her daughter should not be born in the year of tiger, but in the year of donkey.

Stubborn to death!

No matter how she asked, her daughter would not admit that she had cried even to death.

"Forget it, let's eat."

After a while, Li Suhua sighed silently and gave up the plan of questioning.

She understands her daughter's character and accepts death. Once she makes up her mind, even ten cows can't bring her back.

Anyway, my daughter doesn't go to class now, and she doesn't like to run around. There are still many days to come, and one day we will know what is hiding in her heart.

"Um."

Zhou Rong lowered her eyebrows and nodded obediently. The moment she lowered her head, her eyebrows were immediately stained with a hint of sadness, which was heart-wrenching to see.

"Where's Byung Kun?"

When she walked out of the back room, Li Suhua immediately saw her husband and eldest son in the outer room. Seeing that her younger son was not around, she couldn't help but ask.

"Is this child still sleeping?"

"Bingkun?"

Zhou Bingyi said in surprise: "Didn't he go out early in the morning? Why, he hasn't come back yet?"

"Going out?"

Hearing this, not only Li Suhua looked surprised, but Zhou Zhigang and even Zhou Rong also showed surprised expressions.

Did the lazy king get up early?

After learning about this, Zhou Rong couldn't even care about the sadness in her heart, her lips were slightly opened, and her expression was full of surprise.

Li Suhua looked outside the room and then at the hot gruel on the table.

Where did Bingkun go?

This child doesn't have to study now, so where can he go so early in the morning?

Talking about Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived. Just as everyone was thinking about it, there was a hoarse sound and the door rang.

Turning around, I saw a young man with a tiger-like head walking in. The sides of his cheeks were still red, and he looked like he had been blown by the wind while riding a bicycle.

"You kid, where have you been so early in the morning?"

When she saw her child coming back, Li Suhua immediately let go of her worries and began to complain about her son.

"I don't know how to say hello to my family when I go out."

"Mom, I'm going to the street."

Li Jie chuckled and said calmly.

"To the streets?"

Li Suhua looked startled, and then suddenly remembered something.

Two days ago, people from the street just came to the door to mobilize their children to go to the mountains and countryside.

At that time, people on the street were driven away by Li Suhua.

The child's father's job has just been transferred and he is going to Southwest China. The child's father has not said where exactly. To be precise, the child's father does not know either.

I only know that I am going to the southwest.

Her husband's departure was requested by his superiors. Even if Li Suhua didn't want to, there was nothing she could do.

You have to go, right?

If you don't go, your job will be gone.

Without a job, what would the family do for a living?

Here, Li Suhua is still immersed in the news that her husband is going on a long journey, and over there, her eldest son is also going to build a corps.

After so many years of going to the mountains and countryside, Li Suhua knew something about it.

Both her husband and son are leaving. Li Suhua has been in a very bad mood recently.

That's why she coaxed people off the street.

She is just an ordinary housewife. She doesn't understand those big principles. She only knows that a family should stay together.

Before she could get over the matter of her eldest son going to the Production Corps, people from the street came to mobilize again and asked her family to send another person to the mountains and countryside.

The people on the street said that according to the current policy, if there are multiple children in the family, only one can stay in the city.

"What are you doing in the streets!"

As he spoke, Li Suhua's expression suddenly became serious.

"I'm going to sign up."

Li Jie scratched his head and seemed not to notice Li Suhua's gloomy face.

"Aren't we responding to the chairman's call?"

"Look, we have a total of three children in our family. The eldest brother is going to the Corps, and another one is also going to join. I thought, this person should be me."

"Although my sister is older than me, she is a woman and she is pretty. How dangerous it is to travel far away alone."

"Yeah, I think so too."

At this time, Zhou Zhigang, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke, his tone full of appreciation.

"Bingkun did the right thing."

"I also agree that it is indeed more appropriate for Bingkun to go to the countryside."

Zhou Bingyi on the side also echoed, saying that the place he went to go to the mountains and countryside was not as good as home. The corps he went to was already considered a good place.

But even if the calculation is good, the conditions there are not particularly good.

He asked people on the street what the situation was like over there. The people on the street hesitated and couldn't explain why. They only knew that the winter there was very cold, even colder than here.

The Zhou family is a working-class family with good roots. In fact, given Zhou Bingyi's conditions, they can definitely go to a better place.

The reason why he didn't go was entirely because of one person.

Hao Dongmei, his girlfriend, was in that area where Dongmei jumped in line. The corps Zhou Bingyi went to was already the closest place to Dongmei.

In short, he didn't have a choice.

On the other side, hearing that her husband and eldest son were supporting the younger son, Li Suhua felt upset.

Although she drove people away from the street a few days ago, she knew very well that her thin arms could not twist her thighs.

This person will come out sooner or later.

It's just that she hasn't made up her mind whether to let her daughter go or her youngest son.

Even though she knew it would be a better choice for her younger son to go.

But parents always love their young children more. Bingkun is only 17 years old this year. He is still a child. This child has never traveled far since he was a child.

Going to the countryside, who knows how far away, Li Suhua felt extremely reluctant to part with it.
