Go back to the prosperous days and become a layman

Chapter 23 023 Long Face
"Zheng Suo, I'm still a young man without a wife. But when I heard that you love your wife and take care of your family," Tang Zhitong was very happy. Bicycles are valuable materials and are distributed to you when you go to work. No one else has this kind of treatment!
"You are already a deliveryman, and you are still worried about not having a wife? In the future, people who come to propose marriage will crush the door of your house." Zheng Suo joked.

"Hey, Zheng Suo, why don't you give me something new like this for a newcomer?" Tang Zhitong stopped talking and changed the subject. It was true that he was surprised, but he had never seen anyone give brand-new valuable materials to a newcomer? "Would you like to give me the whole old one?"

"What's the matter? Are you worried about damaging it?" Zheng Suo didn't get the implication of Tang Zhitong's words, "The formalities for this car have been completed, and the superiors have given you a new one. Aren't you happy? Take care of it and use it. This car will stay with you for many years. Woolen cloth."

Tang Zhitong smiled, said nothing, and pushed the car out for inspection. Who could dislike riding a new car?Who wants to ride a second-hand car when there is a new one?

Zheng Suo was a nice person. He looked at Tang Zhitong who was trying this and that. He didn't greet him anymore, but he took out the supplies assigned to Tang Zhitong from the warehouse.

"It seems that you can ride a bicycle?" Zheng Suo carried the things and watched Tang Zhitong's operation for a while. He knew how to ride a bicycle.

"Yes, I learned from riding other people's bicycles before." Tang Zhitong stood up the bicycle. The new bicycle is made of solid materials and weighted manganese steel. It is durable and can be ridden until retirement with good maintenance. However, the riding comfort is not as good as that of a certain bicycle, but in You can't be picky these days.

"You will save time on learning to drive. You can familiarize yourself with the route with the master tomorrow." Zheng Suo handed the things in his hand to Tang Zhitong, "These are all yours, a postal bag, a raincoat, and a set of summer clothes. Let's get together and wear them for two days. We have to wait a few more days before winter clothes are distributed.”

"Okay, thank you Zheng Suo." Tang Zhitong hurriedly took it, "When will I be assigned a master?"

"Let's do it tomorrow. All the other comrades in the institute have gone to study classes. I won't go back to the institute in the afternoon. I will be here at seven o'clock tomorrow morning. I will assign you a master and follow the familiar route first." Zheng Suo arranged.

"Okay, shall I go back first?" Tang Zhitong threw the packed things behind his back, which saves effort than carrying them. He went back on his legs and came back on his legs tomorrow. This is enough to exercise his body.

"Go back, go to bed early and get up early, don't be late tomorrow." Zheng Suo waved to let him go.

"Come back, just go back on your legs like this?" Before Tang Zhitong could take a few steps, he was stopped by Zheng again.

"Yes." Tang Zhitong nodded, as if it was a matter of course.

"Ride a bike." Zheng Suo was amused and laughed out loud, "The bike is not only for you to deliver letters, but you can also ride it to and from get off work. In the future, you will have to get up early to go to the transfer station to carry newspapers and letters. You can't let the delivery person walk. Come and ride again, wasting time.”

"That's a good relationship." Tang Zhitong beamed with joy. Private use of the bus was also required by work. He loved this job so much that he hung the thing on the handlebar. "Then I'll ride away?"

"The gate is on the north side. Be sure to keep an eye on the car. If it is lost, you will be compensated according to the price." Zheng Suo pointed the direction to Tang Zhitong, warned him, and returned directly to the office.

Tang Zhitong came out of the gate, walked around to the door of the business hall, locked the car, took his things, walked in and said goodbye to Qian Zhongping: "Sister Qian, I've finished the formalities. Come and tell you."

"Okay, the whole family must be waiting for your good news. Go back quickly. We will see you every day from now on, so there is no need to be so polite." Qian Zhongping smiled at Tang Zhitong and said sincerely.

"Hey, you have to have a correct attitude." Tang Zhitong also replied with a grin.

"Go back quickly. You're a young man who can eat. Don't forget to go to the street to change the ration when you go back. The deliveryman's ration will be higher." Qian Zhongping was careful and liked the polite young man very much, so she kindly reminded her.

"Okay, see you tomorrow, Sister Qian." Tang Zhitong waved goodbye to Qian Zhongping.Tang Zhitong rode his bicycle and walked south along Jianshe Road (Jianshe Road later became the East Third Ring Road Middle Road). When he reached Jianguo Road, he turned west and walked along Jianguomenwai Street.There is a southbound trail to the east of Jianguomen that leads directly to Dongbianmen. People nearby call this trail "Duck's Tsui".

It is called Duck Mouth because ducks were raised in the small pond here before, or because the pond is shaped like a duck's mouth.

There is a bridge at the south end of Yazui, called Datong Bridge. It was the end point for waterway transportation of grain to Beijing before liberation. The grain was unloaded here and then moved to the Houheyan Warehouse in Nancheng or the warehouse in Dongcheng by animal-drawn vehicles.

In Tang Zhitong’s childhood impression, there were vast walnut trees to the east of Yazui.This walnut is very interesting. Around the sixth month of the lunar calendar, the walnut has a thick green peel on the outside. When the peel is broken open, the flesh of the walnut is still very tender. Although it has an astringent taste, it is also the target of children nearby vying to pick it.

Tang Zhitong was very impressed by this. Because the juice from the walnut skin could not be washed away, Mrs. Tang found out and gave her a child growth education lesson...

A journey that takes one hour on a trot takes less than half an hour on a bicycle.

Tieluqiba is a stop on the No. 8 bus. Take the No. 8 bus to Dong'an Market, and then take the No. 2 bus to Hujialou. However, the round trip costs more than [-] cents. Since there are fewer trains, it will only take longer than the trot. .

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the public transportation in Sijiu City has made a qualitative leap, but it is not something that ordinary people can afford to ride at will, even Masan Ge is no exception.When we were at the construction site, didn't we help Gu Yong with writing letters? Even Brother Masan also sent a letter home.He said that it was cheaper to send a letter than to make a phone call or go home. It could be delivered within the same city the next day, so it was very convenient to make sure your family was safe...

Tang Zhitong rode his bicycle back to the wheelbarrow, which was a big blow.

"Hey, Eucalyptus, have you become a deliveryman?" Uncle Zhu widened his only remaining eye. Although he had already known it, he was still envious when he saw the brand new green painted bicycle. shouted loudly.

"Report today and officially start work tomorrow." Tang Zhitong said proudly.

This is a matter of having a long face. As one of the "eight members", the deliveryman not only elevated Tang Zhitong's status, but also made blind people think carefully before provoking the Tang family. In addition, the dust has settled, so Tang Zhitong does not mind announcing Listen to the neighbors.

"Hey, hey, this is the first one for our iron roller! You've made us look good, Eucalyptus." Ma San'er wrote a letter home a while ago, saying that he had benefited from Tang Zhitong's work and that his work had been transferred. With the iron rice bowl, the relationship between the two families was already good, and this time Aunt Ma was even more supportive.

"Mother Ma, the third brother is the first, and I am the second at most." Tang Zhitong humbly gave way as the fancy sedan was carrying people.

"Euclidean, is your job arranged by the street?" Aunt Wu asked Tang Zhitong loudly in the crowd.

"Aunt Wu, this job does not go through the streets." Tang Zhitong replied. If he was unclear today, Aunt Wu would immediately dare to go to the streets to cause trouble.

"Then how did you get there?" Aunt Wu was slightly disappointed. Tang Zhitong's answer was not the answer she wanted.If it was arranged by the street, she really dared to question it. After all, his son had also graduated from junior high school and had been unemployed for three years. Why shouldn't he give his son an advantage if he had such an opportunity?Everything has to come first, right?

　I finally understand why so few book friends leave messages, because many book friends choose to listen to books...
