The booming era begins with the director of the Propaganda Department!

Chapter 240 Some are happy and some are sad! !

Revealed again! !

Grandma Zhang looked at Zhang Chenfei angrily, and when she looked at Tian Zhigang again, a smile appeared on her face as if she had changed her face: "I'm quite embarrassed...Then let me just say a few words??"

"You must be old!!!" Tian Zhigang praised.

Grandma Zhang first put down the brass pipe pot in her hand, then supported the table and stood up slowly:

"Zhigang, you and our father Dafei are good brothers, good buddies.

Damn it, the two of you grew up together in Sijiu City, naked buttocks and mud together, playing together, and learning skills together.

Over the years, in my mind, the old lady, although our two families are not one family, they are better than one family.

After my son and daughter-in-law were gone, the life of Lao Zhang's family became worse every year. Many of the neighbors with whom we had a good relationship in the past gradually became estranged. "

Speaking of the quiet years of the old Zhang family, Mrs. Zhang's tone began to become serious.

Those years were difficult! ! Courtyard No. 95 was originally a large courtyard, and the residents at that time were all residents with poor conditions.

At this point, Grandma Zhang changed the subject:
"But for so many years, there is only you, only Qin Zhigang!! Your attitude towards our family has always been the same.

Didn't he already agree to the matter between her and Zhang Chenfei yesterday? ? What are you doing now? ? ?

But standing in the position of his future father-in-law, he was always a little unsure.

Unexpectedly, the old lady would actually talk about this, and Tian Zhigang's eyes began to get a little moist.

Da Fei was not sensible before and often ate and drank at your place for free. When our family is having a hard time, it's all thanks to you for helping us.

No, wasn't I helping Da Fei? ? Why are you staring at me again? ? ? Where is the reasoning here? ? ?

Although Tang Da Niu later gave birth to several boys, so that their family would not be bullied in the courtyard.

"Old lady, it's all over now, why are you still mentioning that??? You are thinking about that pound and a half of black beans, but you have to know that Lao Zhang and his wife also helped me a lot when they were alive.

Standing in the position of an elder, Zhang Chenfei is undoubtedly a good young man, capable, good-looking, and with a grateful heart.

Thinking of the good brother and neighbor Lao Zhang, and looking at the two sons Lao Zhang left behind, he couldn't help but feel filled with emotion:

But others don't dare to be friends with their family because they see them as poor, for fear that they will lose money if they talk about feelings with their family.

“Now is a new society, every household has enough food and clothing, and people’s lives are getting better and better.

But even so, their family's life was still the worst in the entire courtyard.

I still remember the city was closed in 1948. Food from outside the city could not be transported in, and it snowed heavily. The number of people lying on the streets (people freezing to death) was unparalleled. The pull.

Tang Danniu was speechless: "..."

He still remembered that at that time, Lao Zhang's wife held Xiao Zao in one hand and Da Fei in the other. She took good care of the two children and never favored one over the other.

Take a look, now Da Fei has joined the work and is sensible. Our Xiaozao is doing well in the neighborhood committee. From now on, good days are waiting for us.

The old lady spoke again: "The matter between Da Fei and Xiao Zao has been delayed for a year... Actually, I also understand that you didn't agree to let them be together because you were worried that Xiao Zao would be bullied, and you didn't believe Da Fei's words.

Our Zaoer's mother died after giving birth to Zaoer. When she was a child, Zaoer grew up eating the milk of Lao Zhang's wife! ! ! "

It's one thing to acquiesce in action, but it's another thing for the two parties to talk openly and honestly.

Tian Zhigang smoked and said nothing.

At this point, the old lady burst into tears.

This boy is so good-looking. Once a man looks good, his temptation will increase.

Grandma Zhang sighed and said: "I don't blame them. There is a saying that 'if you are rich in the mountains, you have distant relatives, and if you are poor in the city, no one cares about you.' This is human nature. But,"

Tian Zhigang looked at Tian Xiaozao, Zhang Chenfei, and then moved his eyes to Zhang Chenliang, Tang Da Niu and the old lady, and made up his mind: "Nowadays, everyone pays attention to free love, and does not follow the rules of parents' orders and matchmaking. .

"Yes, yes, yes." Grandma Zhang took the handkerchief Tian Xiaozao handed over and wiped her tears, echoing, "The only big thing on my mind now is Da Fei's marriage..."

Dafei's father and mother, and our Xiaozao's mother did not survive the good times, so we have to live a good life and help them enjoy the blessings they deserve. "

Is eldest sister-in-law like mother used here? ? ? Grandma Zhang gave her a hard look.

The old lady understood that since Tian Zhigang agreed to come to the house to have dinner together, it meant that he had already promised Xiao Zao and Da Fei in his heart.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, she wanted to finalize the marriage.

Tian Zhigang hesitated and did not answer. Instead, he glanced at Zhang Chenfei and Tian Xiaozao with complicated expressions.

Two and a half kilograms of black beans were used as fodder for livestock in peacetime, but under the circumstances at that time, cooking them could save a family's life! ! !

At that time, you gave our family two and a half kilograms of black beans despite the fact that your own family was having a hard time! ! "

Just relying on the black beans given by Tian Zhigang, their family survived until JFJ came to town...

Tang Da Niu also yelled: "That's right, they say a sister-in-law is like a mother. After getting married, if Da Fei dares to bully Xiao Zao, I, the sister-in-law, will be the first one not to agree!! I will have to whip her hard!" No!”

"Dad, you're already here for dinner, why are you still..." Tian Xiaozao tugged at her father's sleeve anxiously.

Tian Zhigang interrupted her rudely: "Shut up!!"

And with so many temptations, who can guarantee that they will never forget their true intentions throughout their lives? ? ?
Zhang Chenfei knew what Tian Zhigang was worried about, so he stood up slowly and said solemnly: "Uncle Tian, ​​I will be good to Zaoer all my life and take care of her, please don't worry!!!"

In this way, today is New Year's Eve, and I, the hometown boy, will make a promise to you. As long as my old lady is here, I will never allow Zhang Chenfei to treat Xiaozao badly! ! ! If he can't do it, my old lady will personally apologize to you! ! "

then,

As long as Zaoer and Dafei agree, I have nothing to say. "

This is consent. Grandma Zhang and Zhang Chenliang couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.

Life is getting better and better for the old Zhang family, and the only thing on his mind is Zhang Chenfei's marriage.

Once this matter was settled, they felt relieved.

Finally getting his father's personal nod of approval, Tian Xiaozao's little face turned red with excitement and couldn't help but grab Zhang Chenfei's hand.

The latter immediately held her back, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

"Hey, look, you are making this young couple happy." Tang Danniu exclaimed, "I see, it's a good thing it's the Chinese New Year, otherwise, I'm afraid you two would be going to get your marriage certificate tomorrow!!"

"Sister-in-law..." Tian Xiaozao blushed with embarrassment and her voice sounded like a mosquito.

"Sister-in-law, Zao'er is thin-skinned, don't tease her." Zhang Chenfei looked serious.

Tang Danniu curled her lips: "I haven't even gotten married yet, but I'm already protecting her. Otherwise, what else would people say? A magpie with a long tail will marry a daughter-in-law and forget her sister-in-law."

"It's not that I forgot my sister-in-law, but that I forgot my mother." Zhang Fendou corrected as he stuffed his mouth full of shrimps.

"You know how to use a stick?? The big shrimp can't stop your mouth. Eat yours!!!" Tang Danniu slapped her third son on the back of the head. Seeing that the third child was beaten, the remaining gourd boys were overjoyed and laughed.

"Why are you laughing?? If you don't know how to eat chicken, duck or fish, you only know how to laugh at jokes." Tang Danniu began to suppress her roughly again.

Opposite the Zhang family,

Yan Bugui had just finished sharing the dumplings and braised pork with the whole family when he heard the laughter that was about to knock off the roof. He was so frightened that he dropped his chopsticks to the ground.

"What are you doing??" He hurriedly picked up the chopsticks, saying in his heart that it was a pity.

These are the chopsticks that have just been used to pick up braised pork! ! If it falls on the ground, the oil will die...

The children of the Yan family finally had a meal of meat, but no one paid any attention to their father and just immersed themselves in eating.

Only Aunt Yan told Yan Bugui that the Zhang family spent New Year's Eve this year with the Tian family in No. 93 Courtyard next door.

"I see, this good thing between Shen Fei and Tian Xiaozao is probably close."

Having said this, she looked at her eldest son again: "The eldest brother is Jie Cheng in our family. Shouldn't we arrange a blind date for him after the Chinese New Year???"

Blind date? ? ?

Yan Bugui stopped holding the dumplings and looked towards his eldest son, only to see that the other man had swallowed his saliva and was looking at him bewilderedly.

Gee, this eldest son is greedy for his wife! ! !
Also, Jie Cheng is only one year younger than Zhang Chenfei, and now even Sha Zhu and Xu Damao are thinking about finding a wife every day. How could he not be anxious? ?
only……

This son is unemployed now. If he is really right about the blind date, he is not allowed to spend money on the bride price? ? ? ?
I heard that there are a lot of betrothal gifts these days. I have to prepare a new spittoon, a new thermos, a new table, a stool...

That’s all money! !
Thinking of this, Yan Bugui hurriedly said: "Well, the boss's job hasn't been settled yet, so don't rush about the blind date...

As the saying goes, to start a family and start a career, you must first establish a career before you can start a family! ! After the New Year, I will work harder to help the boss complete the work. "

At this point, he looked at Yan Jiecheng and said, "You will keep five yuan of your monthly salary for yourself, and the rest will be given to your parents. We will save it for you to use for your wife."

Otherwise, two kinds of people cannot sleep under the same quilt.

As soon as Aunt Yan heard what her old man said, she immediately understood the key point.

She also looked at Yan Jiecheng: "Your father is right, it is not easy to get a wife now, it costs a lot of money.

You must work hard and save more money. Only then can you bring your daughter-in-law into your home sooner. "

Yan Jiecheng was unhappy when he heard this: "No, who doesn't get married as a gift from their parents???"

Yan Bugui pushed up his glasses in displeasure: "Does the country require parents to leave the country if the law stipulates it?"

There are three sons! ! If you give it to the boss, you have to give it to the second or third child. Is he crazy? ? ?
"There is no law, but other people..."

Yan Jiecheng still wanted to argue, but was rudely interrupted by Yan Bugui: "You go and be the son of someone else's family!!!"

Yan Jiefang on the side also sneered: "Brother, you have no need to ask this question, other families don't keep accounts for their children!!"

Whose family is like theirs, where the children use a piece of straw paper to keep accounts? ?
have to,
Speaking of this, the atmosphere in Lao Yan's family suddenly became extremely awkward, and everyone ate dumplings in silence.

……

Different from the laughter of Lao Zhang's family and the embarrassment of Lao Yan's family, Lao Yi's family in Zhongyuan has a cold look.

Although the couple had no children last year, they spent New Year's Eve with Silly Zhu, He Yuyu and Lao Jia's, a deaf old lady.

Although there were four families gathering together, there were eight people in it, so it was quite lively.

But this year? ?

First, Jia Zhang and Lao Qin got married, and Lao Qin paid sixteen yuan to his family every month.

Coupled with the living expenses provided by Jia Zhang and the money earned by Qin Huairu in the processing factory, the Jia family's current living standard has soared.

Let’s not say it’s among the best in the courtyard, but at least it’s among the upper-middle-class.

With money and a large family, the Jia family no longer wants to spend New Year's Eve at other people's houses just to save money and have fun.

And without Qin Huairu, a beautiful wife, Shazhu would not want to come over to join him.

So this New Year's Eve, there are only three people in Lao Yi's family: Yi Zhonghai, his aunt and the deaf old lady.

It can be said that it is getting older, getting older, and the atmosphere is even more desolate.

And because there were only a few people, the eldest mother was afraid that there would be leftover dishes, so she only made a total of three dishes, one meat, two vegetarian, and one soup.

The deaf old lady was sitting in front of the Eight Immortals table, eating the dumplings made by the eldest mother without any taste. She was still thinking of ways to make amends for Silly Zhu: "Zhu Zhu may not be willing to celebrate the New Year with us. It must be Lao Yi that you didn't go with him. Make it clear that I’m here too.”

Although the relationship with the neighbors in the courtyard is not very good, the deaf old lady thinks that her relationship with Silly Zhu is still very good.

That child was quite stupid. Every time she fooled her, he would come over and cook for her.

It makes no sense that today is New Year’s Eve, but I can’t come over to do it! ! !

She has always had selfish motives and wanted Yi Zhonghai to choose Silly Zhu as his pension partner.

But Yi Zhonghai fell in love with Jia Dongxu. At this time, the deaf old lady inevitably suspected that Yi Zhonghai deliberately did not call Silly Zhu over after being rejected by Jia Dongxu.

As for the reason, it was naturally because he felt uncomfortable, and he couldn't help but feel uncomfortable as a lonely old lady! !
The aunt curled her lips when she heard this but said nothing.

Lao Yi drank red-haired medicated wine since then, and he can last for three minutes every time! !

No matter how hard she works, once she can get pregnant with her own child, she will never have to spend time with this lonely old woman again! ! !

Yi Zhonghai glanced sideways at the deaf old lady: "When I went to celebrate the New Year with Zhu Zhu, he personally said that he wanted to celebrate the New Year with Yu Yu, so he would not get involved with us."

She's just a lonely old lady from a neighbor's house. I'm just looking out for you and cooking a few meals for you.

Okay! ! How about you, you think of yourself as someone else’s grandma? ! ! !

Yi Zhonghai admits that he hates people who have no sense of boundaries the most in his life.

He usually supports a deaf old lady because he has no children, so he needs to create a person who respects the elderly.

To put it bluntly, now he is supporting the deaf old lady for himself.

As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of ten thousand, be afraid of the worst.

What if I still don't have a son or a daughter when I get old? What I do now is a tool to morally kidnap others.

Back then, I supported the lonely old lady next door. Now that I am old, how can you not support me? ? ! ! !

Even if the neighbors don't care, they can still be a little tougher when they go to the street and neighborhood committee to petition! !
With this in mind,
Although Yi Zhonghai's relationship with the deaf old lady seems to be the best in this courtyard. But deep down, I was extremely fed up with this greedy and lazy old lady.
