Chapter 7 The Yang Family
Of course, Lin Zhenhua would not let the two girls accompany him to walk the five kilometers. He rode on Lin Fanghua's bicycle, tied his backpack to the head of the bicycle, and asked Lin Fanghua to sit on the back shelf of the bicycle with the box of porcelain in his arms.As for Yang Xin, he only needs to carry a cardboard box on the back shelf.People on the earth knew one thing back then, that is, Chinese people, regardless of gender, age or age, are all masters of bicycles. A girl like Yang Xin, who looks delicate and weak, has no problem riding a car with a cardboard box on her back .

On the way from the train station to the Hanhua Machinery Factory, Yang Xin was silent, while Lin Fanghua kept asking his brother about his service and demobilization.After a few days, Lin Zhenhua has basically digested the memory of the previous body, so he can speak very fluently now.Hearing the touching part, Lin Fanghua couldn't help but shed tears. This made Lin Zhenhua deeply feel that in the heart of this carefree younger sister, there is a very deep feeling for her brother.

It has been two years since Lin Zhenhua left Fenghua County, and the county has not changed much. The roads are still the same as before, and the words of pedestrians are still familiar with the accent.

Entering the Hanhua factory, Lin Zhenhua began to see some familiar people, some were master workers in the factory, and some were factory children who grew up with him.Everyone greeted Lin Zhenhua in various ways, some said "I'm back" in a flat manner, and some affectionately told Lin Zhenhua to come and sit at home when he was free.

"Aunt Wei said, go to her house for dinner when you come back." Lin Fanghua reminded.

"Oh." Lin Zhenhua agreed, and rode his bicycle to Yang Chunshan's home. He knew that Aunt Wei that Lin Fanghua was talking about was Yang Xin's mother, Wei Suping.

When she came to the door of Yang's house, she saw Wei Suping was already waiting at the door. When she saw Lin Zhenhua, she shouted happily: "Xiaohua is back!"

Lin Zhenhua jumped off his bicycle, set up the bicycle, and walked up to Wei Suping. Wei Suping grabbed Lin Zhenhua's hand and turned him up and down, "Oh, you've grown taller and stronger. I heard you're on the front line." , Lao Yang and I are worried to death, Xiaofang cries every day, just afraid that you will make a mistake."

"Auntie, how can I..." Lin Fanghua said coyly from the side, but Lin Zhenhua could see that there was a tear in her eyes. It seemed that this younger sister was indeed worried about herself.

"Auntie, I made you worry. Also, I heard that Xiaofang has been living in your house. Thank you very much." Lin Zhenhua said to Wei Suping sincerely.

Wei Suping was very happy: "Oh, Xiaohua is really sensible and can speak better than before."

Lin Zhenhua was stunned. It seemed that his predecessor was really not that good. Just saying thank you can make him so happy.

"Come in, come in, put your things down and drink some water." Wei Suping greeted quickly.

Lin Zhenhua and Lin Fanghua entered the room together. Yang Xin had already entered the room early. When he saw Lin Zhenhua coming in, he didn't make a sound, but just stood in the corner and watched.Her gaze remained at Lin Zhenhua's feet all the time, and she secretly observed Lin Zhenhua's every move from the corner of her eye.

"Yang Xin, pour some water for Xiaohua." Wei Suping shouted.

Yang Xin then slowly poured a glass of water and brought it to Lin Zhenhua.

"Xiaohua, take a rest first, and I'll warm up the dishes. Didn't you write a letter saying you arrived home the day before yesterday? Why did you delay for three days? Is it hard to buy a train ticket?" Wei Suping chattered with her hands and feet Quickly took out the vegetables from the cupboard, Yang Xin helped her from the side.This Wei Suping has always been a hot-tempered person, warm-hearted, straightforward, and easy to get along with.

"My brother acted bravely in Xiangping Province. He knocked down three carjacking gangsters by himself and was injured." Lin Fanghua said.

"Really? Where is the injury? Is it serious?" Wei Suping asked with concern.

"Uh, it's all skin trauma. It's all right." Lin Zhenhua said, "It's just that a cadre from Tanzhou City was rescued at the time. He was very enthusiastic and insisted on keeping me in Tanzhou for two days."

At this time, Yang Chunshan also came back, and as soon as he entered the room, he shouted: "Xiaohua is back, when did you arrive?"

Lin Zhenhua quickly stood up and walked towards Yang Chunshan: "Uncle Yang, I just arrived."

Yang Chunshan walked up to Lin Zhenhua, just like what Wei Suping did just now, he lit up Lin Zhenhua up and down for a while, then patted him on the arm a few times, and said with satisfaction: "Well, it's really grown and strong, Lao Lin should feel relieved .”

"Why are you talking about this?" Wei Suping glared at her husband, thinking it was inappropriate for him to mention Lin Zhenhua's parents at this time.

"Well... Uncle Yang, I have nothing to bring you when I come back from the army. Here are two cigarettes and two bottles of wine. You can keep them for later use." Lin Zhenhua opened a cardboard box and took out two Hongtashan cigarettes and two bottles of wine. A bottle of Wuliangye wine was a gift from the Red Star factory. The shrewd office director of the Red Star factory had already explained who he should give it to when he bought these things for him.

"This child, what else do you bring?" Wei Suping said politely. However, Lin Zhenhua was able to think about bringing something for Yang Chunshan, which showed that this child was really sensible, which made her very happy.

Yang Chunshan took a look at the cigarettes and wine, and his eyes lit up: "This is Hongtashan, and Wuliangye, they are all good things, very expensive. No, no, I can't take it, Xiaohua, you can keep it for yourself. "After that, he stuffed the cigarette and wine back into Lin Zhenhua's hands, but Lin Zhenhua could tell that there was some reluctance in Yang Chunshan's eyes.

Of course Lin Zhenhua knew that these were good cigarettes and good wine. Even in later generations, it would be a very generous gift to give this kind of tobacco and wine to others.However, this thing didn't cost any money anyway, he felt that Yang Chunshan's family treated his brothers and sisters kindly, and it was right to give them even the best things.

"Uncle Yang, this is a gift from a friend in Tanzhou. Look, I'm young, smoke...cough cough, I quit smoking. What's the use of keeping it?" He took out a pack of cigarettes and handed it to Yang Chunshan, saying, "Uncle Yang, just smoke one, this is also my heart."

Seeing that Lin Zhenhua had unpacked the cigarette, Yang Chunshan took it over with a smile, took out one and put it in his mouth, then took out the lighter and lit it, took a deep breath, and praised: "Not bad." , It’s really a good cigarette. Alas, I can count on smoking the cigarette that Xiaohua gave me.”

"Uncle Yang, you can keep it." Lin Zhenhua put all the remaining tobacco and alcohol on the table.

"No need, no need." Yang Chunshan shook the pack of cigarettes in his hand and said, "I'll just save a pack to smoke for a taste." Then he lowered his voice and said to Lin Zhenhua: "Xiaohua, you keep all these cigarettes and alcohol, you After retiring from the army and returning to the factory, keep these for the factory manager and secretary, and strive for a good job.”

"No, no, I'll do whatever kind of job you give me." Lin Zhenhua said, and as he spoke, he opened the Yang family's cupboard and put two cigarettes and a bottle of wine in it, leaving a bottle behind. Put it on the table.

"Keep this bottle of wine. I'll have a drink with Uncle Yang at noon today," Lin Zhenhua said.

"This child, why is he so ignorant." Yang Chunshan pretended to be annoyed, "Drinking such a good wine is a waste of eating at home."

Lin Zhenhua smiled slightly and said, "Uncle Yang, even if it's to celebrate my triumphant return and our family reunion, we should have a drink or two. Don't worry, I'm back, and I will let you drink such good wine every day from now on."

"Then you won't be poor." Yang Chunshan said with a smile. He thought Lin Zhenhua was joking. In those days, everyone was earning their wages, and there were not many people who could drink cheap liquor every day, let alone this Grow good wine.However, seeing Lin Zhenhua's firm attitude, he no longer declined.

Yang Chunshan remembered that before Lin Zhenhua joined the army, he was a naughty child. Not only would he not give him cigarettes or alcohol, but he would secretly buy cigarettes for himself from time to time.If it wasn't for the couple's help, the monthly pension given by the factory would not be enough for Lin Zhenhua and his sister to live.Now Lin Zhenhua can give him two cigarettes and two bottles of wine all at once, and he seems to have quit smoking himself.

"Brother, do you have any presents for me?" Seeing Lin Zhenhua giving Yang Chunshan something, Lin Fanghua couldn't help feeling a little itchy. Although she knew she was hopeless, she couldn't help asking.

"Yes." Lin Zhenhua said, taking advantage of Wei Suping's cooking time, he happened to distribute gifts.

"Xiaofang, take this floral cloth." Lin Zhenhua took out the floral cloth that Director Zhang of the Red Star Factory bought for him from the box, and handed it to Lin Fanghua, "Go and ask Aunt Wei to see if it is enough to make two shirts Yes, you and Yang Xin, one for each."

"Wow, it's really cool!" Lin Fanghua shouted happily, shaking the cloth impatiently, and gesticulating on her body, "Aunt Wei, come and see, my brother bought me and Yang Xin really cool!"

Wei Suping had already gone out to cook, and when she heard Lin Fanghua's cry, she ran into the house, touched the floral cloth, checked the length of the cloth with her eyes, nodded and said: "Well, it's really a good cloth, There are more than enough to make two, and they can be worn for several years after washing and changing.”

"My brother said, Yang Xin and I, one for each." Lin Fanghua corrected.

"Why Yang Xin, she has clothes to wear." Wei Suping said, she turned to Lin Zhenhua and said, "You have a monthly allowance of more than ten yuan, and it's not easy to save it to buy a piece of cloth. Keep it for Xiaofang."

"Auntie, this is also my heart. You used to make clothes for Xiaofang and me. What is it if I send a dress to Yang Xin? Yang Xin is also my sister." Lin Zhenhua's mouth is really sweet, this As soon as Sister Ju said it, Yang Xin who was standing beside her blushed instantly.

Wei Suping looked at Yang Chunshan inquiringly, waiting for the head of the family to speak.Yang Chunshan nodded and said to Yang Xin, "Yang Xin, thank you Xiaohua."

Looking at the floral cloth, Yang Xin was already a little bit greedy, and when she heard her father agree, she couldn't help but smile on her face.However, if she was asked to thank Lin Zhenhua directly, she couldn't say it out, she just smiled shyly at Lin Zhenhua, flung her braids and hid.

"Hehe, this kid, I know he's shy." Wei Suping said reproachfully.

"Well... everyone has a gift, but I didn't bring a gift for you, auntie, I'm sorry." Lin Zhenhua said to Wei Suping, there was really no gift for Wei Suping in his cardboard box.

"What is the family talking about? If you give a gift to Uncle Yang and Yang Xin, isn't that the same as giving it to me?" Wei Suping said. It's a very generous gift, why would Wei Suping worry about whether she has a gift or not.Now she is just thinking about how to take more care of the brothers and sisters of the Lin family in the future, so as to repay this gift.She didn't take into account what she did to the brothers and sisters of the Lin family in the past few years, she felt that she should do that.
