The world of film and television started from optical film

Chapter 109 Ending

It's not just Feng Yue, the studio that hung under Honghuang Magazine at the beginning has now been independent. Wang Zhong invested a total of 50 yuan, including Feng Yue's five children, each with a quota of 10 yuan. 20% stake.

After Jin Yueji left, Zhou Bingyi and Hao Dongmei moved out of the provincial party committee compound and lived in Zhou Bingyi's dormitory.

Among other things, in terms of integrity, Zhou Bingyi has done a very good job.

Time flies, and it is another year in a blink of an eye.

At the beginning of [-], thanks to Zhou Bingyi's efforts to turn the tide and the unremitting efforts of nearly [-] employees, the military factory, which was already on the verge of bankruptcy, finally regained its vitality.

But at this time, Zhou Bingyi became busier. He ran between the military factory and his family all day long, living a life of two points and one line.

Even the optical text is not very much back.

Zhou Zhigang's dementia became more and more serious. Not only did he not recognize Wang Zhong's family, but this time he didn't even know Zhou Rong and Feng Yue. He only remembered Li Suhua, who was always swearing at him, and Zhou Bingyi, who was away from home all the year round. .

This former eighth-level worker, a master of technology, is one of the most promising people of his generation in the entire optical film industry.

Now he doesn't even know his family members, let alone the neighbors in the neighborhood. When someone calls him, he will respond, but he will never greet others as before. Many times, He didn't even know when he urinated or defecated, so he had to wait for someone to smell it before he could handle it.

And he always ran out at every turn. Fortunately, all the neighbors lived in the optical text film. If they saw it, they would send him back directly. If they couldn't, they would send someone to find Li Suhua.

Fortunately, the nanny that Wang Zhong and Zheng Juan had found, Big Sister Hu, was there to help, otherwise, Li Suhua alone would not be able to take care of them at all.

After such a long time, no matter how good Li Suhua's patience was, it was worn out in many ways. As long as he was a little closer to the old Zhou's house, he could hear Li Suhua scolding Zhou Zhigang almost every day.

Being able to turn such a good-natured Li Suhua into what he is now shows how attractive Zhou Zhigang is now.

On this day, on the weekend, Zhou Bingyi managed to end his busy life for a while, and finally remembered his parents who still lived in optical film.

Call the driver and drive back to the optical film. The streets are basically the same as when I was a child. Some houses have been renovated, and some are simply picked up. But there are also many vacant places that have not been lived for a long time.

In the past, on weekends, the streets were full of children running around and men and women riding bicycles.

But with the reform and opening up and the rapid development of the economy, most of these young people living at the bottom of the city chose to leave Jichun and go to the southern coastal areas.

A small number entered the densely populated urban areas, and started small businesses from dawn to dusk.

But most of them are doing some hard work.

"Every time I come here, I feel a little different." Zhou Bingyi looked at the situation on both sides of the car through the window, feeling a lot of emotion in his heart.

Although the streets and buildings in the optical film have not changed much, the speed and extent of the changes brought about by the changes of people are far better than the changes of time.

The driver smiled and said, "I see nothing has changed!"

The driver of the car was a young guy, twenty-year-old, who had just returned from the army and was the captain of the military factory team. He was smart, upright, and hardworking.

Zhou Bingyi didn't say anything, the driver was still young and didn't have enough experience, so he might not be able to understand these things if he told him.

After a while, the car came near Lao Zhou's house.

"Xiao Duan, it's all right! Just stop here, I'll walk for a while, you go back first, and pick me up downstairs at my house the next morning." While speaking, Zhou Bingyi had already opened the car door and got out of the car.

"Secretary Zhou!" The driver, Xiao Duan, got out of the car quickly and asked, "Aren't you going to use the car tomorrow? Then how do you go home?"

Zhou Bingyi smiled and said: "No, you can go back quickly, it's just right, take a good rest these two days, isn't your daughter-in-law just born, take advantage of these two days to spend time with your wife and children."

"Thank you Secretary Zhou!" The driver Xiao Duan showed a bright smile on his face, quite touched.

"Okay, let's go back quickly, your wife and children are still waiting at home." Zhou Bingyi said with a smile.

Xiao Duan happily drove away. As the leader's special driver, although he doesn't usually drive a lot, he must be on standby all the time.

At this time, it was not far from the old Zhou's house at the end of the street, only a few hundred meters away.

Walking on the side of the road, Zhou Bingyi met almost all elderly people. Along the way, he didn't even meet a single child chasing and playing in the street.

A silver-haired, stooped lady with steamed buns came out of the house with a wooden basin, and was about to pour water out the door when she saw Zhou Bingyi.

"Bingyi?" Seeing Zhou Bingyi, the aunt was very surprised.

"Aunt Wu!" Zhou Bingyi greeted the aunt with a smile.

"Come back to see your parents?" Aunt Wu asked.

"Well! Come back and have a look!"

"Your mother and Chunyan's mother just came back from the market to buy vegetables not long ago, you go now, she should be at home." Aunt Wu reminded enthusiastically.

"Thank you, Aunt Wu, then I'll go back first."

"go Go!"

Seeing Zhou Bingyi's leaving back, the smile on Aunt Wu's face gradually disappeared, she shook her head, sighed, and walked back with the basin in her hand.

"Who is it?" A rather loud voice came from inside the room.

Aunt Wu rushed into the room and shouted: "The boss of the old Zhou family, Bingyi."

"The boss of the Zhou family?" The door curtain was lifted, and an old man with a goatee beard on his chin, his beard and hair were silvery white, and his face was wrinkled. He also held a cigarette rod in his hand, and walked out of the room, squinting. He squinted at Zhou Bingyi's receding figure.

"Only one person?" The old man subconsciously asked suspiciously.

Aunt Wu was washing the tub in the corner of the room: "Just him."

The old man shook his head, bent down and tapped the tobacco rod on the sole of his shoe, took out a handful of shredded tobacco from the small cloth bag near the cigarette holder, and stuffed it into the mouth of the pipe: "It's not a good thing for me to say that this kid is too promising. Son."

"Hey!" Aunt Wu also sighed, and said, "That's not true."

"If you say that Lao Zhou's life is worth it, the eldest son is a big leader in the yamen, the daughter is a university teacher, and the youngest son is not bad. The big boss of the construction company, I heard that he is worth hundreds of thousands."

"What's the use of that? Old Zhou has become like this. The two sons still don't see each other a few times throughout the year, so they hired a nanny, and left the rest to Bingkun's mother alone. not coming back."

"If you ask me, Lao Zhou's life is not as good as ours. At least our sons and grandchildren still know how to come back to see us every three days."

"So, it's useless for this kid to be too promising."

"Who said no!"

"At our age, we still have a few years to live, so what we want is to be reunited with our children and grandchildren!"

The old man suddenly changed his voice and said: "But you can't say that! The sons and daughters are promising, honoring their ancestors, and their old Zhou's face is also shining."

"I just feel sorry for Bingkun's mother. She has worked hard for most of her life, and now her children are well-off. Except for the time with Bingkun, it seems that she has not enjoyed any blessings."

The old couple talked with each other.

Similar words often appear in the mouths of neighbors in the optical film.

Seeing that he was approaching his old house, Zhou Bingyi suddenly heard a cursing voice. Although it was not loud, the voice was very familiar.

The direction of the voice was my old house.

"Mom!" Zhou Bingyi walked to the gate of the courtyard, and looked at Li Suhua, who was standing in the courtyard with his waist in the back and looking helpless, cleaning up the ground with a broom and dustpan through the gate. He couldn't help but shouted first. .

Hearing the sound, Li Suhua subconsciously followed the direction of the sound and looked towards the gate of the courtyard, just in time to see Zhou Bingyi who pushed open the gate and walked into the courtyard.

"Bingyi?" Li Suhua shouted in surprise, the cloudy face immediately turned from cloudy to sunny.

"Why are you here?" The sudden surprise made Li Suhua forget to clean up the big dark yellow thing on the ground.

"Isn't it the weekend? It just so happens that I'm not busy recently, so I'll come over to see you and Dad first. Dongmei has to go to work during the day today, so I'll come directly after get off work at night."

Just as he was talking, a familiar stench came over his nostrils, Zhou Bingyi frowned subconsciously, and then moved his eyes, and saw the big dark yellow lump of rice not far from Li Suhua's feet.

Looking at the eyes of the eldest son, Li Suhua quickly explained: "Your father! He is getting more and more confused now, he refuses to go to the toilet even though it is nearby, and always runs to the courtyard."

While speaking, Li Suhua quickly covered the rice fields on the ground with crushed cinders, then picked up the shovel, and shoveled it up with one shovel. Pat it, then sweep it into the dustpan with a broom.

"My dad..." Looking at his mother's innumerable movements in front of him, Zhou Bingyi only felt sad for a while, and then felt ashamed and blamed himself.

"Mom! My dad..."

Zhou Zhigang hadn't finished speaking when Miss Hu, who was wearing an apron, just came out of the house, carrying this thick plastic bucket in her hand, which was filled with crushed cinders.

"Auntie, I told you I'll take care of it, and you can take care of the old man." While talking, Sister Hu also noticed Zhou Bingyi: "Bingyi is back."

Li Suhua said: "It's smelly and ugly, please clean it up early!"

"I'll do it!"

"That's fine, you come to the rest, and I'll wash it off for the old man."

Sister Hu took the broom and dustpan from Li Suhua's hand, cleaned up all the cinders on the ground, poured them into a plastic bucket, and went out with the plastic bucket.

Yonetako is different from other garbage. This stuff has a strong smell and must be disposed of immediately.

Fortunately, the public toilet is not far from here, and it is convenient to deal with.

"Mom! Where's my dad?"

"It's in the toilet!" Mentioning Zhou Zhigang, Li Suhua became furious: "This old bastard is sincerely against people. He not only dragged it in the courtyard, but also messed up his pants."

Zhou Bingyi walked to the northwest corner of the yard, opened the bathroom door, and saw Zhou Zhigang sitting naked in a large basin filled with half a basin of water. Zhou Zhigang was sitting cross-legged with a smile on his face, looking very happy.

There was a pair of dark trousers and a pair of underwear with some dark yellow stains on the ground next to it. It was such a simple picture, but in Zhou Bingyi's eyes, it was like a thunderbolt from the blue sky, making him feel so uneasy. All the complacency that had just been born because of the initial results of the military factory was completely wiped out.

At this moment, Zhou Bingyi's heart was filled with unprecedented shock.

"dad!"

Zhou Bingyi didn't know how difficult it was to call out this word. At this moment, such a simple title seemed to weigh a thousand catties.

Unprecedented self-blame and regret filled every corner of Zhou Bingyi's heart, filling his body and mind.

Zhou Zhigang, who was immersed in the joy of playing in the water, paused when he heard the words, turned his head to look at the door, and smiled immediately on his face: "Bingyi!"

It's just that the voice is no longer as loud, deep and recognizable as before, but has a lot more nasal sound, which sounds a bit vague.

Zhou Bingyi stared blankly at his father, who was clearly familiar to him but felt very strange to him, and couldn't say a word.

"You go into the room and sit for a while, I'll give your dad a bath! Otherwise, you'll smell all over your body."

In the past few years, thanks to Li Suhua's meticulous care, he bathed and changed Zhou Zhigang's clothes and trousers, otherwise, if he got a little closer to Zhou Zhigang at this moment, he would definitely be greeted with an unpleasant smell.

In the yard of the old Zhou's house, Zhou Zhigang's trousers were the most sun-dried.

But Li Suhua is not omnipotent. It would be better in spring and summer. In winter, the water in the pipes would freeze, and the water for washing clothes and trousers would not be enough.

So in winter, Li Suhua can only simply scrub Zhou Zhigang with hot water. Although he wipes diligently, but after a long time and wearing thick clothes, Zhou Zhigang's body will inevitably smell bad.

"Mom!" Zhou Bingyi looked at his old mother, whose temples were already gray, with soreness and astringency in his heart, he forced a smile and said, "Let me come!"

Li Suhua looked at Zhou Bingyi who looked firm and serious, and nodded, "Okay, you wash him, I'll wash his pants."

Although Sister Hu was the nanny invited by Wang Zhong, Li Suhua has always done these relatively private things by herself, after all, she is not so open-minded at this time.

And this kind of thing, don't say that Big Sister Hu is a woman, even if a male nanny comes over, Li Suhua is too embarrassed to pretend to be someone else.

In the evening, Zhou Rong and Hao Dongmei also came back. Sister Hu left after cooking dinner. Li Suhua didn't pull her along either. Li Suhua didn't persuade her anymore.

In the evening, Zhou Bingyi and his wife did not go back, but followed Li Suhua and Zhou Zhigang to sleep on the big kang in the outer room, with a kang table in between.

At first Li Suhua refused, but Zhou Bingyi insisted on insisting. Li Suhua couldn't beat him, so he could only comply with his wishes.

What happened during the day was too shocking, Zhou Bingyi was lying on the kang, unable to sleep no matter what.

In the middle of the night, with the onset of drowsiness, Zhou Bingyi finally felt a little drowsy, and suddenly heard a few muffled sounds, but because of the onset of drowsiness, his mind was dizzy, so he didn't care at all.

Just when Zhou Bingyi was about to fall asleep, Li Suhua, who was separated by a kang table, lifted the quilt and turned over, looked at Zhou Bingyi and Hao Dongmei who were sleeping soundly, heaved a sigh of relief, got up quickly and called Zhou Zhigang, telling him not to come out. Noise, don't disturb Zhou Bingyi and his wife, while dragging Zhou Zhigang to the toilet.

But the movements of the old couple getting up were really not small, Zhou Bingyi didn't really fall asleep, and was still woken up.

"Mom! What's the matter, why don't you sleep at night?" Zhou Bingyi asked almost without thinking.

Li Suhua smiled and said: "It's nothing, you go to sleep, go to sleep!"

"Mom!" How could Zhou Bingyi sit still, and the person who was speaking had already sat up.

Li Suhua looked a little embarrassed, looked around and still didn't notice it, Zhou Zhigang, who seemed to be doing nothing, twitched the corner of his mouth, but couldn't smile.

Zhou Bingyi shrugged his nose, frowned immediately, and subconsciously said, "What's the smell?"

But then he reflected, looking at Zhou Zhigang beside Li Suhua, he couldn't believe it.

"Go to bed first, I'll take your dad to wash."

Zhou Bingyi's complexion changed, and he said solemnly: "I'll help you!" The person who was speaking had already got off the kang, put on his shoes and supported Zhou Zhigang's other hand.

Li Suhua sighed and didn't speak.

I pulled my trousers again, or I should clean it up quickly, but the whole room will smell after a while.

Fortunately, it's summer this time, and the windows can still be opened. If it's winter, we can only smell the smell for one night.

Fortunately, Zhou Zhigang's legs and feet are still quite nimble now, and when he was dragged out by the two of them, there was a sound of splashing water in the toilet.

Five minutes later, Zhou Zhigang led Zhou Bingyi back to the house. Li Suhua washed the pants that Zhou Zhi had just changed, and hung them on the clothesline in the courtyard to dry. kang.

"Mom!" Before Li Suhua could wait, Zhou Bingyi's voice came from beside him.

"Why haven't you slept yet?" Li Suhua asked with a gesture, then lay down and covered himself with a thin quilt.

Zhou Bingyi said: "Can't sleep, how long has my dad been like this?"

"It must have been three or four months. I can't remember the exact time."

"Then you have to serve him like this every night?"

"It's not necessarily, occasionally, I will catch up tonight." Li Suhua said: "Okay, it's getting late, go to bed quickly."

Zhou Bingyi didn't speak anymore. He opened his eyes and stared blankly at the familiar roof. His mind was full of the situation just now and the scene he saw just after entering the door during the day.

After an unknown amount of time, two lines of tears fell silently from Zhou Bingyi's eyes.

The boy does not cry easily, but it is not when he is sad.

Early the next morning, after Zhou Bingyi discussed with Hao Dongmei, the couple decided to move back to the optical film from their dormitory.

I asked Zhou Rong and Li Suhua for their opinions, but neither of them refused.

Just do what you say, and just taking advantage of Sunday, the couple moved their things back from the dormitory.

That night, Wang Zhong knew the news. When Zheng Juan called the old house at night, Hao Dongmei answered the phone. Zheng Juan only found out after asking.

Wang Zhong was quite surprised by this, but after thinking about it carefully, he was relieved. After all, there is no one in the Hao family, and even the residence has been returned to the government. Zhou Bingyi does not have to be caught between the two families as before. It is not surprising that such a decision is made.

Time soon came to [-]. Zhou Bingyi's work in the military factory was very successful. He successfully turned the tide and attracted the attention of the higher authorities. Coupled with the contacts left by the Hao family, he was promoted to the post of Jichun City without much effort. Second in command.

But Zhou Zhigang's condition is getting worse and worse, he has completely lost his basic behavioral ability, and he doesn't know anyone anymore. Now Li Suhua speaks in a soft voice, he doesn't care at all, he has to spray and scold , the voice should be higher than the gongs and drums.

On the other hand, Zhou Rong, at the beginning of the year, fell into the arms of Cai Xiaoguang, the big lick~dog, moved out to live with Cai Xiaoguang, and gave up the old house of the optical film to Zhou Bingyi and his wife.

But Zhou Bingyi was still busy with work, but Hao Dongmei spent much less time on work, and spent more time helping Li Suhua take care of Zhou Zhigang.

At the end of the fall of [-], Li Suhua suddenly fainted while washing Zhou Zhigang's clothes. Fortunately, Sister Hu was there, so she called Wang Zhong immediately.

Wang Zhong didn't dare to delay, he even drove to the optical film and sent Li Suhua to the hospital.

It took most of the day for the IV drip before Li Suhua woke up slowly, but she woke up, but she couldn't even move, and she didn't have any strength in her whole body.

The doctor said that it was due to overwork and he could only take care of it slowly, but he was afraid that he would have to stay in bed all year round.

Li Suhua's body and bones have always been poor. In the past few years, taking care of Zhou Zhigang, he has been tossing and tossing day and night, and there is no time to stop and rest. Over time, it is inevitable to fall ill.

The next day, Wang Zhong transferred Li Suhua to 131 and hired two nurses to take care of Li Sihua in two shifts a day. Wang Zhong and Zheng Juan basically went to the hospital every day.

After more than half a month of observation in the hospital, the situation is getting better day by day, and there is no trend of deterioration. The doctor said that after a few days of observation, there is no problem and he can be discharged from the hospital.

But at this moment, Wang Zhong and Zheng Juan were caught off guard by a sudden bad news.

Ma Shouchang passed away.

This lovely and upright old man, with extremely upright views, could not withstand the passage of time after all. In the middle of a night in late October, he completely lost his breath in his sleep and passed away.

Qu Xiuzhen was very sad, depressed, and very disappointed, but she didn't cry much. The old horse walked away peacefully without any pain. She was happy for the old horse in her heart, but before she left, she didn't see her son for the last time. Regret left.

Knowing the news, Zhou Cong, after asking for leave with the counselor, immediately rushed back to Jichun from the University of Technology that day.

Ma Shouchang left, and the children were very sad. In their eyes, Ma Shouchang, the dry grandfather, was far more amiable than their own grandfather, who treated them well and made them close.

Especially Zhou Ling, who burst into tears directly.

Ma Shouchang's funeral, Wang Zhong, didn't make his own decision to help manage it, but let him take care of it himself after Lao Ma and Qu Xiuzhen's son Ma Jianguo came back from Shanghai.

Wang Zhong didn't feel very comfortable in his heart. Compared with Zhou Zhigang who had no feelings, the status of Lao Mazi in Wang Zhong's heart was completely different.

After Ma Shouchang's funeral was over, Ma Jianguo proposed to take Qu Xiuzhen to Shanghai to live with him, his wife and children.

But Qu Xiuzhen had stayed in Jichun for most of her life, so how could she be willing to leave? No matter what Ma Jianguo tried to persuade, Qu Xiuzhen refused to let go.

There was no other way, Ma Jianguo had found Wang Zhong.

"Bingkun, I have no choice! This is why I came to you." Ma Jianguo looked at Wang Zhong expectantly.

"Brother Jianguo, I can try, but you, a son, must know better than me what Aunt Qu's temper is. I can't guarantee that I can convince her."

After hearing Wang Zhong's words, Ma Jianguo could only bow his head and sigh: "I know, it's okay, no matter if it succeeds or not, brother thank you."

"There's no need to say polite words. Over the years, Uncle Ma and Aunt Qu have always taken good care of me, and I respect them as my elders from the bottom of my heart."

Wang Zhong said sincerely: "Actually, Aunt Qu still wants to be reunited with you very much in her heart. Old people, you always want to have your children and grandchildren around your knees and enjoy the family happiness, but..."

Ma Jianguo didn't know: "It's hard to leave the homeland! It's human nature."

"It's good that you understand! Don't worry, I will try my best to persuade you."

"Thank you, Bingkun!" Ma Jianguo said sincerely, holding Wang Zhong's hand.
