The notice for Zhou Rong to go to the countryside came out the next day. Zhou Zhigang was worried and insisted on taking Wang Gang with him to take Zhou Rong to Wujiacun and check in with him.
As soon as the three of them went out, they saw a young man running over in a hurry.
"Brother Xiaoguang?" Wang Gang recognized the person when he saw it.
The young man is none other than Zhou Rong’s classmate and licking dog, Cai Xiaoguang.
"Zhou Rong, I heard you are leaving today?" Cai Xiaoguang ran over panting and said.
Zhou Zhigang's face darkened and he coughed.
Only then did Cai Xiaoguang react and greeted Zhou Zhigang.
"I know everything you helped Zhou Rong hide." Zhou Zhigang had a straight face and did not have a good look towards Cai Xiaoguang.
He still remembered that Cai Xiaoguang bought Zhou Rong's train ticket.
"Uncle, listen to my explanation!" Cai Xiaoguang said hurriedly.
Wang Gang grabbed Cai Xiaoguang's arm and pulled him aside.
"Brother Xiaoguang, my dad is angry, please don't cause trouble."
Cai Xiaoguang was a little embarrassed and wanted to plead with Zhou Rong!
"Brother Xiaoguang, you really hope my sister goes to Guizhou to find that old man!" Wang Gang said speechlessly.
Cai Xiaoguang looked at Zhou Rong, then at Zhou Zhigang, and finally sighed and said nothing.
Wang Gang chuckled and said, "Now my sister is going to Wujiacun, which is very close to Jichun. Don't you have a chance now?"
I have always wanted you to be my brother-in-law!"
Cai Xiaoguang opened his mouth wide in surprise and stuttered: "Bingkun, don't talk nonsense, I don't mean that to your sister."
Wang Gang rolled his eyes and said: "Okay, don't explain. Even a blind person can see your thoughts. To be honest, I didn't lie to you. Compared with that old man Feng Huacheng, I think you are more suitable."
Be my brother-in-law."
Cai Xiaoguang was at a loss for a moment before recovering, and then sighed heavily.
"It's not me your sister likes."
Wang Gang rolled his eyes again and said: "Emotions are born from the source. Now she has been deceived by Feng Huacheng's sweet words. When she knows who Feng Huacheng is, she will naturally fall into your arms."
Cai Xiaoguang said in surprise: "What do you mean by this?"
Wang Gang said: "That Feng Huacheng is in his thirties and a college student. With such a good condition, it is impossible that he has never been married, right?"
Cai Xiaoguang was shocked and said, "Yes! Why didn't I think about that before?"
"Love is blind." Wang Gang complained: "Yesterday, my sister said that Feng Huacheng was never married. I believe that my sister did not lie about this, so that Feng Huacheng must have lied to her."
Cai Xiaoguang's eyes lit up and he said: "If I can find evidence that Feng Huacheng deceived Zhou Rong and let her see Feng Huacheng's true face, Zhou Rong will definitely change her mind."
Wang Gang looked like a child who could be taught, patted Cai Xiaoguang on the shoulder and said, "Brother Xiaoguang, you don't need me to teach you what to do next!"
Cai Xiaoguang gratefully held Wang Gang's hand and said, "Bingkun, thank you for the reminder. I will look for evidence of Feng Huacheng's crime right now."
Wang Gang said with a smile: "Then I will wait for your good news!"
Cai Xiaoguang happily took care of Zhou Rong and ran away with three steps and two steps. Zhou Zhigang and Zhou Rong looked at each other in a daze?
"Bingkun, what did you say to Cai Xiaoguang?" Zhou Zhigang asked confused.
"I didn't say anything! I just told him that my sister will always be in Wujiacun and let him visit when he has time." Wang Gang told lies with his eyes open.
Zhou Zhigang did not doubt his presence and said, "Okay! Don't waste time. After seeing your sister off, I still have to catch the train."
With that said, Zhou Zhigang pushed the bicycle, carried Zhou Rong and her luggage, and rode towards Wujiacun.
Wang Gang borrowed a bicycle from Fa Xiao and followed behind.
Going to rural areas in this era is still very troublesome, mainly because transportation is inconvenient and there are no direct buses.
Wujiacun is not far from Jichun, but the road is inconvenient, so it took the three of them three hours to get there, stopping and going.
Zhou Zhigang first found the person in charge, handed Zhou Rong over to her, and then walked around Wujiacun, his brows never relaxed.
The conditions in Wujiacun were not very good, and Zhou Zhigang felt sorry for his daughter again.
"Dad, this place is better than Guizhou!" Wang Gang said, and Zhou Zhigang was no longer sad.
Zhou Zhigang helped Zhou Rong settle down and then ordered: "Rong'er, you can stay here with peace of mind. Your mother and brother will come over to visit you when they have time."
"Hmph!" Zhou Rong snorted ungratefully and pretended to pack her luggage, ignoring Zhou Zhigang.
Wang Gang couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Zhou Rong, what's your attitude? Your parents are so worried about you. Is this how you repay your parents?"
Zhou Zhigang angrily kicked Wang Gang's butt and cursed: "Did you call me Zhou Rong? He is your sister!"
Wang Gang was speechless again. Zhou Zhigang's preference for girls over boys taught him another lesson.
"Okay, let me meddle in other people's business." Wang Gang walked aside unconvinced and no longer cared about the father and daughter's affairs.
Zhou Zhigang tried to persuade Zhou Rong again, but Zhou Rong just didn't appreciate it, her little eyes rolled around, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
Because he had to catch a train, Zhou Zhigang couldn't stay too long, so he told Zhou Rong a few words before pulling Wang Gang away from Wujiacun.
It took the father and son another three hours to return to Jichun. They went back home first and picked up Li Suhua. The family of three went to the train station.
When they arrived at the train station, Li Suhua gave Zhou Zhigang a small package and said, "Dad, there are three steamed buns here. You can take them to the train to eat."
Zhou Zhigang took the package, held Li Suhua's hand, and said with tears in his eyes: "Mom, I'm not at home, you have to take care of yourself."
The old couple said goodbye reluctantly, and Wang Gang stood aside without disturbing them.
He knew that after this separation, it would be several years before the old couple met again. In the next twenty years, the days when the family could be together could be counted on one hand.
After Zhou Zhigang and Li Suhua were cozy for a while, Zhou Zhigang said to Wang Gang: "You will be the only man in the family from now on. You must take me to take good care of your mother and this family!"
Wang Gang nodded and replied: "Dad, you can go in peace! You can rest assured that I am at home."
Zhou Zhigang said angrily: "Can I rest assured? What are you talking about!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Wang Gang’s interruption made the sadness of parting easier.
The train left on time. With deep reluctance, Zhou Zhigang waved goodbye to his family and finally gave Wang Gang a word of advice.
"Go see your sister when you have time."
After seeing off Zhou Zhigang, Wang Gang took Li Suhua back to Guangzi Film's home by bicycle.
Looking at the chaotic streets and smelling the stench in the air, Wang Gang's first reaction was to move.
"Bingkun, you have been running all day, you must be tired! Mom will cook for you, and you go and lie on the kang for a while." Li Suhua said with concern as soon as he came back.
"Mom, I'm not tired. You go and rest for a while, and I'll cook!" Wang Gang looked at his mother in this life and estimated that mother and son would have to depend on each other for more than ten years.
"You silly boy, how can you cook!" Li Suhua said with a smile.
"You can learn if you don't! I will help you share the family affairs in the future," Wang Gang said.
Li Suhua smiled happily and said: "My old pimple has really grown up and become sensible.
But housework is a woman's job, how can you, a grown man, get involved in it?"
Wang Gang smiled and said: "Mom, this is your prejudice. Why can't men do housework?"
While talking, Wang Gang was about to wash the dirty clothes.
"Put it down quickly, mom can wash the clothes herself." Li Suhua said distressedly for her son.
"Mom, since you don't let me cook, why don't you let me wash the clothes?" Wang Gang just hugged the basin and didn't let go.
Seeing her son's insistence, Li Suhua couldn't object anymore.
To be honest, doing laundry in this day and age is more painful than cooking.
First of all, there is no washing machine, so all clothes have to be washed by hand.
Secondly, the weather in Jichun is too cold, and the water is freezing cold enough to describe it.
Finally, the conditions of the Zhou family are so poor. There is no water supply or drainage in the house. To wash clothes, you have to fetch and pour water, which is very troublesome.
Anyway, after Wang Gang finished washing his clothes, his hands were so cold that he felt numb. Li Suhua felt distressed and boiled some hot water for him to soak.
Some people may say, why don't you wash your clothes with a little hot water?
This involves another thing, that is, the Zhou family does not have gas, so every time they boil water, they have to light a coal stove or burn a stove, which is very troublesome and expensive.
Anyway, Wang Gang just couldn't bear it after living in Zhou's house for two days.
Maybe it’s easy to go from frugality to luxury, but hard to go from luxury to frugality!
Back in the courtyard world, Wang Gang's living conditions were much better than those of the Zhou family, and the gap between Sijiucheng and Jichun was also obvious.
After two painful days, Aunt Qiao came to visit again.
The work assigned by Wang Gang has been completed!
Like the TV series, he was assigned to the Red Star Wood Processing Factory and became a glorious discharging worker.
It's not enough that Wang Gang can't think of it. There is only one chance to assign work. If he doesn't go, he will be deemed to have given up automatically.
The next day Wang Gang went to the lumber factory to report, and met two junior students who were also assigned.
