A doctor who travels through two eras
Chapter 682: Persuading Sister to Leave Yunnan
Although it was called a family residence, there were no fashionable tube-shaped buildings, but rather rows of bungalows. Since Fu Hongliang and Shen Wenqiu were both working, they were allocated two bungalows.
The front half of a room is the living room, and the back half is the kitchen.
The other room was also divided into two, with the couple living in one room and the three children living in the other.
Because it is a military compound and discipline is important, the kitchen cannot be placed at the door like in the slums in Beijing, and even sundries cannot be piled there.
The entire compound looked clean. Even when family members were drying their clothes, they were hung there neatly, and definitely not as messy as the colorful flags of various nations.
Shen Guoliang and Wang Huiqin visited the jar inside and out and took a special look at the rice jar. They found that it was full of grains such as corn, sorghum rice, sweet potatoes, and there was only a small bag of rice.
The old couple felt sad to see their daughter and son-in-law living in such difficult conditions.
The old lady hugged her granddaughter and cried with heartache.
Shen Guoming did not sigh. He had lived through the war years and knew that the most dangerous thing about being a soldier was not the harsh material conditions, but that it was a blessing to be able to survive.
Now my daughter and son-in-law are living well, have stable jobs and income, and have three children. Compared with our sacrificed comrades, we are definitely happy.
"Hongliang, Xiaoqiu, you guys are at work, what about the three kids?"
Shen Wenqiu smiled brightly:
"Dad, don't worry. Xiao Gao is already in elementary school. He is responsible for sending his sister to kindergarten every day and picking her up at night. Hong Liang and I often have to work overtime, so it's mainly up to her brother to take care of her."
Wang Huiqin was unhappy when she heard this and accused:
"You two are really generous. How old is Xiao Gao? He is still a child and has to take care of his sister. You are really my good grandson. Thank you for your hard work over the years."
Fu Xiaogao didn't care: "Grandma, don't worry, I'm the eldest brother, and it's natural for the eldest brother to take care of his younger sister."
Shen Guoliang was very happy: "Okay, okay, a man should be responsible. Grandpa praises you."
Lin Sanqi sat aside and began to calculate in his mind that Fu Xiaogao was 7 years old this year, and the twins Fu Xiaojiang and Fu Xiaosu were 5 years old.
Starting in 1968, there was a policy that only one child could be kept in a family, and the remaining children had to be forced to go to the countryside. This policy lasted until 1978, by which time the three children of the Fu family were just of the right age.
The life of educated youth going to the countryside was definitely not as romantic as it is shown on TV. It was truly hard.
Which group of people in the world suffers the most? It must be the farmers, but at least the farmers have the support of their clans, while the educated youth who went to the countryside were really bullied to death.
Therefore, the entire Shen family, including Big Brother Shen who was supporting in Western Xinjiang, and Lin Sanqi had to find a way to transfer to Bao'an County.
Thinking of this, Lin Sanqi started to fool people again:
"Brother-in-law, sister, I have discussed something with my godfather, please think about whether it is feasible.
We think that Yunnan is too remote and many teachers can't even speak standard Mandarin. I see Xiao Gao and his classmates speak Mandarin with a strong Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan accent, not to mention learning a foreign language.
If the three children stay in Yunnan, their future may not be very good. Do they have to stay in this frontier province for the rest of their lives? "
Fu Hongliang is from Shanghai and Shen Wenqiu is from Suzhou. The reason they were able to get together was because they shared the same values and customs.
In the Jiangnan area, people attach great importance to education. No matter how difficult the family situation is, they will support their children in studying. They all believe that all other things are inferior except studying.
So when Lin Sanqi talked about the future of the three children, Fu Hongliang and his wife were also worried.
Having seen the prosperity of Shanghai and Beijing, they have a good sense of justice. How could they not know the backwardness of Yunnan? They can obey the organization's arrangements, but what about their children?
At this time, Shen Guoming touched his grandson's head and said:
"I've retired, and people have forgotten me. I couldn't help you before, and I'm afraid I won't be able to do anything in the future. But you guys are different. You've seen Xiaoqi's energy. As soon as he got off the plane, local officials came to visit him.
Now your younger brother has taken up the post of Executive Deputy Commissioner of Fushan District, Dongguang Province, and the head of Baoan County, and is preparing to build a modern industrial park. This time, your mother and I are going to Baoan County to join your younger brother."
Lin Sanqi corrected him, "Sister Xiaoqiu, don't get me wrong. I'm planning to let my godfather be the general commander of the park construction for me, not a migrant worker."
Shen Guoming continued:
"So my idea is that your and Hongliang's personnel relationship should also be transferred to Baoan County. Leave this to your younger brother and I guarantee there will be no resistance."
Shen Wenqiu hesitated:
"Dad, little brother, we have been working in Yunnan for ten years. Our careers are stable and our relationships are all here. Now we are going to move to another place..." Shen Guoming was a little unhappy. He felt that his daughter was stupid and had no foresight at all:
"Hutu, if you don't think about yourself, you should also think about the children. Maybe you will say that we can take the children away and you stay in Yunnan. But have you ever thought about how regretful the children's childhood will be if they don't live with their parents?"
Wang Huiqin also quickly advised: "Besides, the child will not be close to you in the future."
Shen Wenqiu hesitated: "Then what can we do in Bao'an County? I have heard that Bao'an County is much poorer than our Yunnan."
Lin Sanqi wanted to laugh when he thought about it. That was the truth. Bao'an County was really poor now. There was nothing there. No wonder Shen Wenqiu looked down on it.
Shen Guoming gave a signal with his eyes, and Lin Sanqi quickly took out a map of Baoan County from his backpack:
"Brother-in-law, elder sister, look..."
Lin Sanqi talked about his lofty ideals for a long time, and finally said:
"If my brother-in-law goes to Bao'an County, he used to work in the military logistics system. It just so happens that I am still short of a logistics supervisor. We need to build an industrial park, with tens of thousands of materials, and we urgently need someone to manage them.
Of course, brother-in-law, you don’t have to worry. I am also the officer of the Fushan Military Region. I can keep your military status so that you don’t have to worry.
Similarly, if Xiaoqiu went to Baoan County, I would build a modern hospital, and my long-term goal is to make it the best hospital in the world. Then I would attract foreigners to come and see a doctor and earn foreign exchange.
Xiaoqiu happens to be a doctor, so she is a suitable professional. Not only can she do the clinical work she likes, but she can also do administrative work. In this way, you can have a job and take care of three children.
Bao'an County is only considering higher education for the time being, but my family is in Hong Kong, so I can send Xiao Gao and his family to Hong Kong to go to school. When they grow up, they can study abroad, or they can stay to build the Bao'an Special Economic Zone. It's all up to me."
Fu Hongliang and Shen Wenqiu were obviously moved.
But when adults do things, they will inevitably look ahead and behind. Shen Wenqiu smiled bitterly and said:
"Little brother, let us think about it for a while. Don't worry, I will give you an answer tomorrow."
Wang Huiqin was somewhat dissatisfied:
"Silly child, what do you have to consider? When you go to Bao'an County, Xiao Qi will be the highest official. With him protecting you, are you still worried that you can't arrange a good job for him? Besides, which one do you think is more promising, going to Hong Kong to study or going to Yunnan to study?"
During the Republic of China period, capital in Jiangsu and Zhejiang tended to be blue, so with the national liberation in 49, many wealthy people in Jiangsu and Zhejiang fled to Hong Kong. The Shen and Fu families also had many relatives in Hong Kong.
So Shen Wenqiu and Fu Hongliang are not ignorant people. In fact, they know in their hearts which choice is better.
After all, I'm still afraid that my old company won't let me go.
The next day, Lin Sanqi was still sleeping soundly on his bed in the guesthouse when Cao Zhiyang and Zhao Youxia came again.
Lin Sanqi was half asleep and said helplessly:
"My two brothers, you are too impatient. I came here alone and I don't have any penicillin with me, so I can't transform."
(In fact, he can really make it happen. There are 200 million bottles of penicillin stored in his channel space, and they are special editions produced by Southern Pharmaceutical Factory. Each bottle has only 40 units and has a simple label.)
Commander Cao chuckled and said, "Comrade Xiaolin, Lao Zhao and I are going to take you on a trip today. Let's go and take you to the 'Bisi Slope' first."
Lin Sanqi was washing his face while wondering:
"Bi Si Slope? The name doesn't sound very auspicious. Are you sure you want to take me there?"
Zhao Youxia laughed:
"The Bisi Slope that Chief Cao mentioned should actually be called Bizi Slope, which is right next to the guesthouse. This is where Emperor Yongli of the Southern Ming Dynasty was strangled to death by Wu Sangui with a bowstring. Just like the Jingkang Shame, it is also a place worth commemorating for our Chinese nation."
Lin Sanqi put down his handkerchief and nodded:
"Oh, it's worth a visit. I've also been to Xinhui, where the Yashan Sea Battle site is located. It was also the darkest moment of our nation. The national humiliation cannot be forgotten."
When Commander Cao heard this, his eyes turned and he sighed:
"Yes, we must not forget the national humiliation. Only by strengthening ourselves can we avoid being invaded by other races or countries. You said that our army had penicillin back then. Would the Five Barbarians' Invasion, the Jingkang Shame, the Yashan Sea Battle, and the Southern Ming tragedy happen again?"
Lin Sanqi thought, well, here comes the moral blackmail of national justice again.
But he had already thought about what conditions he should put forward in exchange for penicillin. (End of this chapter)
