Chapter 316. 320. Happy Events
320 six

Zheng Furong was trembling a little at the moment. The old man didn't dare to talk about his daughter all these years because he was afraid that the child would die, and he was also afraid that mentioning it would make the whole family sad. Unexpectedly, his grandson actually found out about the daughter.

"Wen Bo, did you hear me? Did I hear you right? Zihui is really still alive..."

Song Wenbo's eyes were moist at the moment, this news was really timely for him, and the difficult old woman at home should have nothing to say this time.

"Dad, it's true. What Shi Shi said is correct. I heard the truth. Zihui should still be alive, but I dragged my friend to inquire about the news on the other side of the elder brother. Unfortunately, people have gone to the house and the room is empty. We can't find out where they went, so if we want to see Zihui and eldest brother, we have to wait for the opportunity.

People from outside can't come in and we can't get out, but I think there will be such an opportunity in the future, just like when you brought Zihui back when you were old, this kind of scene will reappear. "

What I thought and hoped for in my heart was another matter, but one day it was confirmed. Even a calm and steady person like Song Wenbo couldn't help but spin around on the ground with excitement.

Shui Lian was also very excited, and punched her younger brother vigorously, "You said you kept it a secret, even I didn't know, look, you made my dad happy, your news is really too sudden Now, you should infiltrate us slowly, I am now worried about whether our dad can fall asleep at night."

Being ridiculed by his daughter, Song Wenbo felt a little embarrassed, "You girl, even your father dares to make fun of you, let's see how I deal with you..."

For a while, there was laughter in the room, the joy of reunion of father and son, and the joy of knowing that the closest relative is still alive. Anyway, this laughter is the happiest time this family has laughed in these years. Even Zheng Furong couldn't bear it. Can't help but join in the laughter between father and son.

When the four of them reappeared in the eyes of the people in the village, Song Wenbo realized what the pressure on the children was this time. Everyone saw that their eyes were full of various emotions, and they could look at them like this. They, let alone how they usually treat these two children who were left behind.

"Shitou, Shuilian, Dad can now understand why the two of them can go to the city..."

Shui Lian smiled, "Dad, it's nothing, as long as the two of us live comfortably, we don't care what other people think, we can't influence their thoughts, so why should we care?

We went out just because we didn't want the elderly at home to worry about it, let's go home quickly, I guess grandma and the others will be happy knowing that you are back."

Now not only the old lady Qi and the others are happy, even the other acquainted neighbors are relieved to know that Song Wenbo and the others are back. The father has not forgotten the two cubs who stayed here.

"Mom, I saw that Uncle Song and Grandpa Zheng are here, why don't you go and have a look?"

Geng Lianfeng smiled and nodded, "Let's go and have a look after dinner, I don't know what Song Wenbo has been doing when he goes back, if he is doing well, I will bring your Sister Shuilian and the others to the city to enjoy the blessings.

Alas, don't look at them not working in the team, the two of them usually do a lot of work outside the house. Everyone just sees that the siblings don't participate in labor, but they don't know what these two children have paid behind their backs. .

Sometimes even I admire the two of them. When they were young, they knew how to transfer money to the family, and this is even more serious when they grow up..."

Hongmei asked tentatively, "Then about my brother, did you talk to him while Uncle Song and the others were there?"

Geng Lianfeng sighed, "It's best not to mention this matter. If your brother is really capable, he will go after someone by himself. I can't open my mouth about it. If Song Wenbo disagrees with you, what will you say about your mother's old face.

Besides, we can't ask for favors, I can't do this, although I also like the child Shuilian, but you think about it deeply, what is the condition of our family, what is the situation of your Uncle Song's family? I said that I would not be willing to leave other people's children here if I were the mother of the children. I will talk about this matter after your brother gets mixed up in the army..."

Wang Dazhuang also frowned and worried about his son. When he wrote a letter like this, when will he be able to catch up with this daughter-in-law?

Hongmei pouted, "Mom, you see, Shui Lian's father has left, but neither of them has left. Maybe Uncle Song won't take them back to the city. What's wrong with marrying our family? Let's fight." It's better to be young, and no one dares to treat her badly when we come to our house."

Geng Lianfeng sighed, "That's true, but you don't think about it now, is your Uncle Song incapable of taking the two siblings away?
The power of their family is estimated to be unimaginable to us people. Why don't you take them away immediately? It's the old people who have been thinking about taking care of the siblings for so many years. If the children are taken away, what about the old people in the family? ?

That's why they had no choice but to let Shuilian and the two of them stay. Besides, Shuilian and Shitou's character is not the kind of ungrateful person. You see, they will leave sooner or later. I know when he can make a move..."

Wang Dazhuang sighed, "Why don't I turn around and find out what Song Wenbo is thinking?"

Geng Lianfeng looked at her husband amusedly, "Well, you'd better stop probing, with your little thoughtfulness, I guess you can guess the general idea as soon as you open his mouth.

That man is a genius, you see when he talks like us, let's wait a little longer, it's not that I don't want to help my son, it's because our child can match someone else's daughter, let's talk about this The child is not too old, and in the eyes of Song Wenbo, he probably still treats her like a little girl. "

Wang Dazhuang thinks about it too, for his condition, it is a little bit reluctant for his family to marry someone else's daughter, and even he himself is a little embarrassed.

To put it bluntly, Shuilian is now a quasi-city resident, and once Song Wenbo's formalities are completed, their family will really be a little too expensive.

Geng Lianfeng looked anxious to see his son Xili snoring while drinking porridge.

"Eat slowly, you're so grown up and so impatient, you're in a rush for a blind date, this is..."

Mingxuan scratched his head in embarrassment, "Mom, look at what you said, my brother's business is not settled yet, how can it be my turn, I just made an appointment with Jing Wen and the others to go fishing in the afternoon, and he said someone came out Money to buy our fish to make banquets, sell more money so that my younger brother can study..."

Wang Dazhuang nodded, "When you are free, read more books for me. Your grandpa Qi can tell you that this exam may be resumed at any time, so please don't let it go. Although your father and I are not promising, but I wish all of you could go out."

While talking, Gao Mancang's eldest son ran in hastily.

"Da Zhuang, hurry up and take your children to the team. The factories in the city are recruiting workers, and the number of places is limited. Come over quickly, don't go too late, and they will pick other people's children..."

Wang Dazhuang and Geng Lianfeng stiffened their backs, "What, are you really here to recruit?"

"It can still be false. I was the first to notify your family. Hurry up and take the children there. You can count as many as you can recruit. After a while, my dad will talk about it on the loudspeaker. Hurry up and hold on..."

By the time Shuilian and the others heard the news and rushed over, the team was already full of parents who wanted to register their children.

However, because the number of places is limited, the exam can only be used instead. Shui Lian saw that Gao Mancang seemed to have a good relationship with the recruiter, and she knew it in her heart. This must be a good relationship with Gao Mancang, otherwise why would they choose? They come from such a small valley.

"Sister, how about I try too?"

Shui Lian grabbed her younger brother, "Why are you going to join in the fun at this time? Doesn't it attract people's hatred? You just wait for me honestly. You haven't seen anyone who is about to reach your age. You are not old enough, just Don't make fooling around..."

Geng Lianfeng was not too polite this time, even her daughter and son were all named, it would be even better if she could pass the exam, even if she didn't pass the exam, she would have nothing to lose, five places, if all of them fell to their family, she would really It's time to burn the incense.

Zheng Furong and the others also came to watch the excitement. Seeing that Mingxuan was among them, the old man frowned a little. Among the children he had taught, the children of the Wang family were all spiritual and had strong comprehension skills. If the college entrance examination is really resumed, there should be no problem for Mingxuan, but if the kid goes to work in the city, I don't know if he will still be in the mood to continue his studies.

Song Wenbo could somewhat guess what the old man was thinking by looking at his father-in-law's expression.

Quietly leaning into the old man's ear, "Dad, I'll talk to Brother Da Zhuang first about this matter. No matter what happens, even if their children's jobs are not available, let's help out in the future. They picked up my daughter." Come back, no matter what you say about this matter, it is a great kindness..."

The old man nodded, "Go and tell him that even if the child fails the exam, I will be responsible for arranging this job for him. Don't delay the child's future because of this..."

After Song Wenbo told Wang Dazhuang what he thought, the honest man was in a bit of trouble.

It is estimated that my son will be able to pass the recruitment this time, but if the exam is really resumed as Song Wenbo said, the child will have a great future in the future, so what if it is delayed.

However, he automatically ignored what Song Wenbo said about helping him find a job. The two children in his family have not yet resolved it. When will their son have to wait.

Geng Lianfeng just hesitated for a while, and soon made a decision in his heart.

"Big brother, we listen to you. If the child really has a great future as you said, he must let the child remember your kindness..."

Song Wenbo liked Geng Lianfeng's straightforwardness, "Sister-in-law, you can let the two daughters sign up together, maybe these two children can succeed..."

320 seven

Since this is a temporary worker recruited by the textile factory, it is not limited to men and women, so Hongmei and Hongying should still have a chance.

Of course, as for who can be selected, it depends on the standards of the other party.

Shui Lian and her younger brother are basically acting as bystanders watching the excitement, watching these people who are going to run for the election are busy.

After Song Wenbo came over, he greeted familiar people and didn't have time to watch the game at all.

However, Shui Lian and Shi Shi felt a little sweat for the two sisters of the Wang family at this moment. They both grew up in the countryside, and no one was much worse than the children of other families. If you are good at living, otherwise you will not be able to survive in the countryside. This is what the children of poor families say when they are in charge.

The final result made Shui Lian feel a little regretful. Hongmei was chosen, while Hongying lost because she was too nervous, but this was enough to make Geng Lianfeng happy.

After all, they chose five people in their village, and their son was the first one, but in the end Mingxuan gave up this spot, which made the villagers feel sorry and curious for him. Why did the Wang family's child give up such a good job? The chance to get out.

Mingxuan also felt a little regretful, "Oh, obviously I can go to work in the city, what a pity..."

Wang Dazhuang patted his son on the shoulder, "Don't be a pity, your grandpa Zheng has already said that he will solve your worries, what else do you have to worry about, don't look at this small benefit in front of you, we are all gentlemen and have to look far away.

In the future, dad still expects your two brothers to win glory for our family, at least he is better than that Liao Fusheng, isn't it just that he went to a worker-peasant-soldier university, which is like [-] million, and you will be better than him in the future, that is What a real skill..."

Some curious people even asked Geng Lianfeng for news, "I said that your family Mingxuan won the first place in the exam, why are you two willing to let your child not go? What a great opportunity, what a pity to give up, and you will never find it if you regret it later." Go somewhere."

Geng Lianfeng just smiled at everyone's curiosity, "What's the pity, our eldest son is not at home, so we can't send all our sons away, otherwise who will do the heavy work at home, we should keep a son by his side for insurance..."

She wouldn't tell people the details inside. Song Wenbo wouldn't make promises easily, and if he made it normally, he would definitely keep it.

That's why she doesn't worry about her son's future, especially since Mr. Zheng also said that his son may be admitted to university, and she thinks it's worth the risk to give her son the opportunity to continue his studies for nothing else.

As a result of the competition, some people were happy and some were worried, especially Hongying shed tears at the time. Seeing that her sister and other people were selected, this strong girl could only secretly wipe her tears. For this result, Geng Lianfeng and Wang Dazhuang I can't say anything else. They also feel regretful and helpless that the children are no better than other people's children.

"Girl, don't be sad. You are also a temporary worker when you enter the city. You don't know about the year of the monkey until you become a full-time worker. Besides, you are younger than your sister. You may have a chance in the future. If we work hard at that time, we may be able to work hard." Can be chosen."

Shui Lian and Hong Mei also followed to help comfort this good girl with strong self-esteem.

"Sister Hongying, otherwise you can hang out with us in the future. You said that you are earning money when you go to the city, and we will not earn money at home. Maybe we will earn more than the workers in the city in the future."

Hongying wiped away her tears and sighed, "Shui Lian, you don't understand, it's an honor to be a worker. Speaking of it, others envy you, and you have a fixed salary every month, so the family's conditions can be eased a lot. If we can eat commercial grains in the future, my mother and the others will be able to eat refined grains every month..."

Shui Lian also knows what this person's concept is now, and they all want to be a worker. As long as they can go to the city to eat commercial food, it is a matter of infinite glory in a family. With this condition, even if they are looking for a partner, they will have capital.

What's more, this rural girl is very popular with the old ladies in the city when she goes to the city. These old people like the countryside because they can endure hardships and are willing to be rural wives.

"Sister Hongying, to put it bluntly, going to the city is nothing more than earning more money and better living conditions. Think about it, it's not bad for us to start a small business. Don't you see that the food in our family is pretty good, too. It would be good for you to do some small business with us in the future, although it is a bit strict now, but maybe it will get better and better in the future."

Hongying was still a little sad, "That's still different. Although you can make a lot of money in business, everyone looks down on you. Oh, I hope I can have this opportunity next time..."

Shui Lian can be considered to understand that even if money is lured, this person's concept cannot be changed, let the facts speak for themselves in the future.

Seeing Hongying's distress, Song Wenbo patted Wang Dazhuang on the shoulder, "Brother Wang, don't be sad to make Hongying go back, maybe the opportunity will be in the near future, and we will be recruiting again at the end of the year. Some female soldiers go over, go back and let the children be quiet and get ready..."

Song Wenbo blinked his eyes twice at Wang Dazhuang, at first he understood what it meant, but when he figured it out, he couldn't help being a little surprised, "Brother, really?"

Song Wenbo smiled, "Is it true? You will know when the time comes. Hurry up and take the child back. I'll make a call later."

Wang Dazhuang's heart is full of joy. A son in the family has become a soldier, and his daughter will have this opportunity in the future. How can you say that he, a father, can stay? Only then did he secretly tell his daughter-in-law the meaning hidden in Song Wenbo's words.

"His mother, hehe, our family has really had a great happy event. Hongmei is going to the city. It won't be long before our daughter can become a female soldier. Do you think it's worth celebrating..."

Geng Lianfeng was taken aback by her husband's thoughtless words, and when she heard the whole story, even she couldn't hold back, "Her father, do you think our family's ancestral grave is going to smoke? Something good happened..."

Wang Dazhuang knew in his heart that if the daughter-in-law was not kind back then, their family would not have such good things like today. When the old man taught the child, he was extra careful. Otherwise, the child would not be like this in the exam today, so it goes without saying It's about the kids being soldiers.

"Well, from now on, it's fine to study the goodness of other people's cultural museums and Mr. Zheng. Let's get along with this person slowly. We don't have any conditions now. When the children are capable in the future, let them all remember the goodness he has treated us."

When Song Wenbo showed up at the recruiting site, everyone in the village knew that the old man and his son-in-law had returned.

The news spread quickly. Some families around have already hired a matchmaker to discuss marriage matters with Song Wenbo. Let’s not say that the girl is good-looking and good at housework. It also gradually got better, and the relationship between this girl and her daughter is also extremely good.

Just because of the filial piety that this child can handle interpersonal relationships and take care of the elderly in the family, and that she can bring blessings, everyone automatically ignores the fact that she does not participate in the labor of the team.

With such a powerful natal family as the backer, if they marry such a blessed daughter-in-law and go home in the future, the people on the other side of the natal family will be able to spend half of their life with a little pull, so it is said that this smart person does not distinguish In the city and the countryside, even Song Wenbo had to admire this point.

He's not stupid, it's impossible for him not to see the purpose of everyone's marriage proposal, but for these people, Song Wenbo declined them with a smile on his face.

"I'm sorry, everyone, our children are still young, in fashionable terms they are not yet adults, we will discuss this matter when the children are older.

And don't look at me as a father, but as a father, I don't care about the children's marriage. I am only responsible for helping the children choose. As for whether they can like it or not, it depends on the children themselves. I, everything is based on the children's opinions. , let’s talk about this matter later, and thank you all for taking a high look at our children..."

What Song Wenbo said on the scene was better than anyone else, he came from the scene, this kid is still here, now is not the time to offend anyone.

What kind of families are these, and he is not clueless. If he wants to marry their daughter, he should go back and practice for hundreds of years.

It's not that he judges people by their appearance, it's just that these people came here to propose marriage at this time, they must not be in the right mind, their own children are only so old, they began to think about it, and they married their children when their daughter was so old?He didn't believe it.

After dismissing these people, Song Wenbo still asked for his daughter's opinion.

Shui Lian resolutely refused this matter, without even the slightest hesitation.

"Dad, I'm still young. Let's worry about it when I'm 28 or [-]. Anyway, I just want to take care of you guys and find my mother. I don't have any other thoughts. Don't worry about that. .

In my eyes, they are all little brats, even if I grow up to look for them, I have to look for someone like you, who is handsome, mighty, courageous and knowledgeable, and the most important thing is that he is infatuated with my mother..."

Song Wenbo patted his daughter amusedly, "You girl is teasing your dad instead, since you have no idea, then stay here with your brother at ease, if you have any news, dad and your grandfather will pass it on to you at any time Yes, don’t worry, just wait at ease.”

After talking about this, Shui Lian said seriously, "Dad, let's go to the grandfather's grave tomorrow, and let him know that you two haven't forgotten him.

When he was about to fall ill, he didn't want us to notify you two, because he was afraid that it would delay you from doing big things. Alas, I didn't expect you to do such a big thing. It's a pity that grandpa didn't wait until this day. To tell you the truth, I I feel sorry for his old man..."

Song Wenbo was also a little surprised. His daughter really connected the events before and after, and she couldn't help secretly praising her child for being smart, and her mouth was serious enough. It took me so long to say this in front of him. Let's talk about it.

"Hehe, you girl, your little head is good enough, that's enough, you just need to understand this matter in your heart, don't talk about me to outsiders, even if you have questions with someone in the future, just say that you don't know. There are some things that are inconvenient for Dad to tell you..."

Shui Lian nodded knowingly, and said playfully, "Dad, I understand. You have confidentiality regulations. Don't worry, I have a lock on my mouth. This matter will be locked from now on, and I will not tell others."
