Take Arada back to the past

Chapter 738: Arrangements for the elder sister and younger sister
After everyone laughed, Xizi collected the money.

Yang Xiaole looked at him and asked, "Anything else you need? I'll prepare some bacon for you to take with you! It'll be easy to store."

Xizi shook her head. "No, mom has prepared a lot of defective cloth for me. They are all slightly defective. When I return, I can go to the provincial capital to make a few clothes for her. It's not a good thing to wear too good clothes in the countryside. The bicycle team has some, and we have cloth too. Mom has also prepared a lot of national food coupons for me. That's enough."

Hearing this, Yang Xiaole nodded gently: "Okay, you can do whatever you want. Tell mom if you need anything, and I'll send it to you after you leave. Bring some oil back when you leave."

He naturally knew that dressing too well in the countryside was not a good thing.

Especially since he is the captain now.

This is also the reason why he wants to raise funds.

He had so much money that he couldn't spend it all, so naturally he had to find a good place to get the money. Once so much money was dispersed, there wouldn't be that much left for each family.

It doesn't matter even if someone investigates.

Now most of the family members have their own jobs and the salary is not bad, so they no longer have to eat meat secretly in the middle of the night like before.

Or you can make dumplings with two pounds of pork filling and tell others that there are only two ounces of pork filling.

As long as there isn't any troublemaker in the family who would sacrifice his own family for the sake of justice, it will be fine.

After dinner, everyone sat there and chatted for a while.

Yang Xiaole sent Qu Ying back. The reason why he came over to eat so often was to let everyone get used to it first.

So as to avoid people gossiping about you behind your back.

Without riding a bike, the two of them just walked on the road.

Qu Ying tightened her clothes and asked, "Xiao Le, if Xizi gets married there, she won't be able to come back. Can you bear it?"

She has always seen how Yang Xiaole cares for the little ones at home.

Hearing this, Yang Xiaole smiled and said, "It's okay, Xizi is grown up now. I never interfere in their relationships. Even if they regret it in the future, they will have to bear the consequences themselves.

Even if they have met the wrong person, there is no need for this.

As for whether to come back or not, I have some thoughts in my mind. You also know that I am in a confidential unit now. I know some information, but I can't tell you. You will know it later. "

If you encounter something that is not explained clearly, then it is the confidentiality regulations.

Qu Ying pondered for a moment after hearing this.

She naturally knew that Yang Xiaole was in a confidential unit, but he still hadn't said what he did.

However, she also knew in her heart that there were many confidential units that could not be talked about, let alone confidential units in the army.

This has nothing to do with trust or not.

Yang Xiaole walked along the road, holding her hand and saying, "As for the marriage application, I will apply after I officially take up the post. You wait for my notification. If it is approved, you should also start the application."

Hearing about getting married, Qu Ying was still a little shy, and nodded gently and obediently: "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Yang Xiaole held her in his arms and said with a smile: "Have you encountered any difficulties at work? If so, tell me. Don't bear it."

Qu Ying nodded: "Yes, I know, it's not bad at work."

Hearing this, Yang Xiaole nodded lightly.

However, when it comes to the level of the eldest brother and Qu Ying, it may not seem high, but there is always a job for everyone if you move up.

Without any background, you may end up sitting there for the rest of your life.

But they are young and in no hurry.

"Hey, what are you doing in front of me? Stand still!"

While they were thinking, they heard the shouting of middle-aged women behind them, and flashlights were shining on the two of them.

Yang Xiaole looked back and saw a few old ladies with bound feet trotting towards him.

Maybe it just snowed, so the road is slippery.

Several people ran slower.

"It's broken, run."

Yang Xiaole was delighted when he saw this and hurriedly urged them on. The two of them quickly got on their bikes and rode away.

When they returned to Qu Ying's home, they both couldn't help laughing.

After Qu Ying burst into laughter, she came back to her senses and asked with a smile: "Did you hear the sound?"

Yang Xiaole also laughed out loud.

Because the person who had just arrested them was his mother Wang Qiuju.

My mother is now in the neighborhood committee’s detective team for old ladies with bound feet, and she’s the leader.

Today is her turn to be on duty.

I didn't scan it before, so I didn't notice it.

Nowadays, hugging and kissing on the street is considered hooliganism.

In fact, there was no need to run just now. After all, the two of them had already been allowed to date by the organization, they just hadn't reported their marriage.

But one thing more is worse than one thing less.

Qu Ying patted her chest and laughed, "Tell me, when Auntie goes back and finds out that it's you she's chasing after, will she be so amused that she'll die?"

Yang Xiaole smiled and nodded: "Of course I will! Okay, go in. I'll pick you up after get off work tomorrow and bring you home to celebrate the New Year."

Before their relationship was made public, he could find excuses to sleep here often.

But it stopped working after it was made public.

Otherwise, the news that would spread would be that he stayed overnight at Qu Ying's place.

Bad influence.

I can only come here occasionally.

Qu Ying naturally understood the reason and agreed with a smile: "Okay, then you go back first! I'll go in."

Yang Xiaole hummed.

After kissing him, he rode away on his bike.

When I got home, my mother had not come back yet and Xizi was lying on the kang sleeping.

"The power is out again! It's a power outage during Chinese New Year."

Seeing the kerosene lamp in the room, Yang Xiaole complained.

Xizi was also asleep, and laughed when he heard it: "Yeah! I heard that some wicked guy did it, worried that everyone would secretly celebrate the New Year, so there was a power outage for the past two days."

These words left Yang Xiaole speechless for a while.

This person is capable of doing anything!
A wicked and smoking thing.

Then he lay on the bed and started chatting with Xizi, and naturally they all talked about the production brigade.

Yang Xiaole just nodded at the side.

But he didn't go into too much detail.

Many things will only change after various problems accumulate step by step.

It’s not really at that point yet.

To put it bluntly, it's not serious enough.

Once the situation becomes serious enough, many people will reflect on it. As more and more people reflect on it, the contradiction will become more prominent.

Just like the cessation of work in the countryside, it did not happen overnight.

……

The next day was New Year’s Eve.

There are no couplets posted.

No incense was burned.

No firecrackers were set off.

Only the smell of fried food filling the courtyard barely reminded people that it was New Year's Day.

At the end of the day, people from each household come home from get off work and have a reunion dinner, except that the dishes are more sumptuous.

There is not much difference from the past.

No one asked for the New Year’s money.

Very deserted.

On the first day of the Lunar New Year, everyone should go to work as usual.

The mother was busy preparing things for Xizi.

Everyone else had to go to work, so Yang Xiaole rode his bike to take Xizi to the train station.

"Okay, brother, I'll get in the car first. We'll be driving soon. You go back first! Dad and mom are relying on you and big brother."

Xizi looked at him and said goodbye there.

Yang Xiaole nodded gently: "It's okay, I'm going to work the day after tomorrow anyway, so there's no rush. As I said before, if you have any difficulties over there, remember to tell me. The book covers for you have been changed, but you still have to be careful, there shouldn't be anyone checking on the road. Remember to hide it after you go back. Whether you can return to the city in the future depends on these books, so you must learn them thoroughly."

Seeing my second brother emphasize it again and again.

Xizi nodded seriously: "Okay, I understand. Don't worry, when we go back, I will urge Xiulian to study together."

"Okay, get in the car. Be sure to drink the medicine I give you on time. Don't drink too much. I'll send it to you when the time comes."

Xizi hummed when he heard this.

Seeing someone urging him, he hurriedly carried his things and got on the train. Yang Xiaole stood under the train, watching Xizi gesturing at him through the glass, and he also waved back.

Until the train whistle sounded, the car rumbled away into the distance.

Watch the car leave.

Yang Xiaole smiled and said that everything had been arranged for Xizi.

If I told Xizi at the beginning, she would definitely not believe it, and she would slowly forget it over time.

More than four years is just the right amount of time.

Wait until the time is right, then launch a sudden attack, and you will definitely surpass the vast majority of people.

I collected my thoughts and returned home.

Xizi took the evening train, and when he returned home, the family reunited.

It's just that there is one less happy child.

Due to the special circumstances now, visiting relatives is also considered a part of the Chinese New Year, so there is no need to visit relatives now.

The group had dinner in the evening.

Yang Xiaole came to the room of the eldest sister and the younger sister.

"Second brother!"

When the little sister saw him coming, she smiled and put down the book in her hand.

Yang Xiaole smiled and took out three hundred yuan from his pocket.

"Here, give Xizi money. This is to subsidize you."

Hearing this, the younger sister chuckled, took the money, and counted it: "Second brother, third brother's money, you are going to give it to one person! How much private money do you have left?"

As he spoke, he handed the extra two hundred to his eldest sister.

Yang Xiaole smiled and said, "Go kowtow to your parents. I'll give you one yuan per kowtow. I'll give you as much as you kowtow!"

The younger sister pouted: "I won't do it! Do you think I'm stupid? I saw the money you gave mom last time. With that much money, I can break my head."

The eldest sister beside me covered her mouth and laughed.

"Little sister, you are quite smart now!"

The younger sister smiled proudly: "That's it!"

The three of them were laughing there.

Yang Xiaole put away her smile and said to the two of them, "Big sister, little sister, I am going to tell you something now. No one else can tell this. Only you two know about it, even if you two are married. Do you hear me?"

Seeing how serious he was, the two of them stopped smiling.

"what happened?"

Seeing this, Yang Xiaole repeated what he had said to Xizi.

After hearing this, the two elder sisters were surprised: "Is it true?"

"Yes, there are signs of this already, so you two have to study secretly in the next few years. Big sister, you should pick up the cultural courses you learned before, and I will prepare the books for you. As for Xiaoli, you should ask more questions to the teachers in school. It may be tiring, but with your intelligence, I believe you can master the university courses."

If there is anything missing, find someone to learn from when the time comes.

The efforts of the two, plus the well water that replenished their brain power, and the fact that people of that era learned very little.

He felt there was no big problem.

The elder sister thought about it for a moment and nodded gently: "Okay, I understand. I will start learning it recently. It just so happens that my younger sister is in college now and can get in touch with some teachers. If she doesn't understand something, let her ask the teacher when the time comes."

Yang Xiaole nodded: "Okay, we'll see how the situation develops. You guys learn first, and I'll take care of the rest."

If you need to ask a teacher for advice, find a place to study at that time.

He has already found the place.

Qu Ying's house is quite secluded and is a good place to study.

Xiaoli also agreed.

Seeing that both of them agreed, Yang Xiaole also breathed a sigh of relief.

In this age when studying is useless, it is quite difficult for two people to truly learn useful knowledge.

At least they all chose to believe in themselves.

"Okay, this matter is settled for now, you guys go to sleep! I'll be at work the day after tomorrow, and I'll bring some books over tomorrow night, so you guys should be careful when you read them, and don't let anyone see them."

After things were settled, Yang Xiaole left.

The New Year is boring now. Everyone else goes to work and he has nowhere to go.

The next day, he handed the college books back to his eldest sister.

On the third day of the New Year, Yang Xiaole's ten-day vacation was over. He packed his things and went out early in the morning.

……

"Section Chief Feng!"

Feng Mingjie had just arrived at the office and was making tea. He looked up when he heard the voice.

He smiled and said, "Xiao Yang is here!"

"Well, I'll come over to report."

Section Chief Feng nodded, looked at the person next to him and smiled, "Xiao Zhang! This is the leader of Group 3, Yang Xiaole. All the formalities have been completed. Take him to the dormitory and put his things there. Then take him to get the supplies. Comrade Xiao Yang, go with him!"

The other person was about thirty years old. Hearing this, he smiled and agreed: "Okay."

Yang Xiaole naturally agreed after hearing this.

Followed the other party out of the office.

After coming out, Yang Xiaole said with a smile: "Comrade Zhang, what are you calling me? You can't keep calling me like this!"

The other party also smiled and said, "Oh, my name is Zhang Wenshu, that's my name, and I'm currently doing the work of a clerk and secretary."

These words made Yang Xiaole stunned for a moment, but he quickly reacted.

"Oh, that's a coincidence! I thought it was a job title!"

"Haha, no!"

The two walked and chatted as they headed towards the dormitory.

Yang Xiaole was also asking about the general situation here.

Although this is a military area, this is the staff department and has independent dormitories.

There are also family quarters in the military region.

However, to stay there you must be at least deputy battalion rank or have been in the army for more than 15 years, and there are many family members and children there.

There are kindergartens, primary schools, bathhouses, etc.

It didn't take long before we arrived at the dormitory.

There was someone guarding the registration downstairs in the dormitory. Zhang Wenshu took him and brought him to the dormitory with his ID.

"You didn't come that day, so Section Chief Feng asked me to register your dormitory so you can move in when you arrive. People here will know you in the future, so you won't have to show your ID every time."

Yang Xiaole was looking at the dormitory at this time.

It is a house of about ten square meters, with a single bed, a desk and chair, and a wooden triangular washstand.

At the innermost part is a wooden wardrobe.

There is nothing else.

The floor is just ordinary cement floor and the walls are white.

Hearing the other party's words, Yang Xiaole smiled and said, "Well, thank you."

"You're welcome! Come on, I'll take you to the logistics department to get your stuff."

Being polite.

Yang Xiaole put his things down and folded them, then followed the other party to the logistics department to get his own supplies.

By the way, I got to know the cafeteria.

Zhang Wenshu knew all the places he needed to know, so he said, "Then you go ahead and clean up. You've been to Group 3 before, and you know where they are, so I won't take you there."

Yang Xiaole agreed with a smile, took out a cigarette and handed him one.

You don't need to participate in much training here, and they are all cadres. As long as you don't smoke in public places, no one will care.

The smoking ban is also due to concerns that new recruits will not be able to keep up with the physical training.

They don't have so many requirements.

Just train once a week to maintain your physical strength.

After the two men finished smoking, Zhang Wenshu left.

Yang Xiaole packed up all his things, folded the quilt into a tofu block, tidied it up, and then rushed away.

I came to the door and heard the low voices of discussion inside.

Just now, when he went to the section chief's office and to collect supplies, he passed by the building and was seen by others.

It is now known that he is back to work today.

He smiled and pushed the door open and walked in.
