1987 My Era

Chapter 142, Leaving (Please subscribe!)
After sitting on the train for twenty to thirty hours in a row and now having to endure several hours of torture on the secondary train, Li Heng was really tired. He asked the car-sick and sleepless guy to look after the luggage, then he leaned back in the chair, closed his eyes, and slept all the way to Qianzhen.

As soon as he got off the car, Zhang Zhiyong squatted in the garbage pile on the roadside and vomited as usual.

Li Heng carried the luggage down and ran to the grocery store next to the station to buy two bottles of soda, and handed one to the guy.

"You're really weird. You get carsick but not seasick."

"What's so weird about this? It's the same reason why the old man is obsessed with Sister Chunhua and not with other women."

"Who said Yu Shuheng was so beautiful? Who said you wanted to marry her?"

"Fuck! I was just talking nonsense. Do you understand what I mean? I'm not stupid. A woman like that wouldn't even look at me even if I had 100 million, let alone 1000 million."

"Do you know how much 1000 million is?"

"Who cares how much her mother has? Anyway, I know myself well and I hate people like you and my dad."

"Don't compare me to your dad."

"You are all bitches."

The two of them argued all the way, and time passed quickly, and before they knew it, they arrived at Shangwan Village.

After a month, the brick kiln of Old Li's family has stopped working. Li Lan, Tian Run'e and her brother-in-law are dismantling the kiln. The bright red bricks are being stacked one by one on the side of the road in preparation for building a new house.

Li Jianguo is feeding the pigs.

Grandma is helping with the cooking.

"Grandma, I'm back."

As soon as she saw her eldest grandson, the grandmother quickly came out with a vegetable shovel and asked kindly, "Are you hungry? Haven't had dinner yet?"

"No, the wonton shop is closed today and there's nowhere to eat." Li Heng was starving. As soon as he put down his luggage, he hurried into the kitchen.

I saw a bowl of long beans on the stove, so I simply washed my hands, picked up a pair of chopsticks, and started cooking with great effort.

"Eat slowly, eat slowly. Grandma will fry some bacon for you." Li Heng was the only male child in the Li family. He was his grandmother's favorite and she treasured him the most. She originally had no intention of frying the meat, but now she immediately picked up a knife and climbed onto the stove.

Of course Li Heng would not refuse meat. He had money in his pocket, so he was not worried. He could afford it and eat as much as he could. This was the confidence that came from having earned money.

After eating half a bowl of long beans, Li Heng felt his stomach was fuller, so he ran to the brick kiln to help.

Seeing her delicate son coming to do the rough work, Tian Run'e wanted to stop him, but when she thought of her second daughter and eldest son-in-law who had been busy day and night this month, she changed her mind:

"Manzi, go put on a pair of gloves. This brick is rough and will easily rub your skin and affect your writing."

Li Heng looked around and found that his second sister and eldest brother-in-law were both wearing gloves. Without saying anything, he went back home and put on a pair of gloves.

After chatting with his eldest brother-in-law for a while, Li Heng came to Li Lan and said, "Second sister, it's almost September. Have you found a job yet?"

Li Lan said, "It's settled. I'll be at the Municipal People's Hospital in five days. I'll help finish making the bricks in this kiln first."

It was the same job as in her previous life, but Li Heng knew that this girl was ambitious and she didn't stay in the hospital for long before transferring to the Finance Bureau. Don't ask how she got there, it was the man's family who came up with the idea.

After dinner, Li Heng found his shorts and headed straight for the dam.

He didn't care that his young wife and old sister-in-law were threshing grain in the fields nearby. He just dived into the river dam and swam several meters in the water before coming up to breathe.

Wow! The water in my hometown is still so comfortable, cool and clean. It can finally remove the grease from my body.

The old lady stretched her neck and said in a cheesy voice: "Great writer, you are as big as a bag of kudzu, find a wife as soon as possible."

Li Heng was speechless. He quickly squatted into the water and looked down into the clear river.

Damn it! The cost is really too much, the wet pants can't cover it at all, it's too damn contoured.

The young wife was different. She quickly turned her head away after taking a peek, and one thought came to her mind: He is so sexy, whoever becomes his wife in the future will be so happy.

Every summer evening, men who have taken a break love to take a bath in the river. It is convenient and they can also have a refreshing bath. It has been passed down from generation to generation and it has almost become a tradition.

Not long after, the heartless guy came with a soap in his hand, and swam and paddled in the river with a grin on his face, making high splashes of water.

After 8 o'clock in the evening, Li Heng went to visit his second uncle and inquire about Yang Yingwen's news.

Yang Yingwen came back to the village two days ago. Fearing that Yang's father would cause trouble, Xiao Han and Wei Shiman accompanied him. After completing the household registration transfer and other related procedures, they left without staying overnight at home.

This made Yang's father so angry that he broke more than ten bowls and smashed an iron pot.

No matter how hard Yang's mother tried to stop the baby, she failed and was beaten instead. The second uncle said that the poor woman secretly cried until late at night.

Li Heng asked: "Is there no one to stop the fight?"

"Why didn't you pull it? If you didn't, your head would probably be broken and you would be involved in a murder lawsuit." The second uncle bit his cigarette holder and said with disgust:
"This Er Gou is unreasonable. If Xiao Si dies in the future, he probably won't come back. He will not have a good ending."

Ergouzi refers to Yang’s father.

Xiao Si is Yang Yingwen's nickname. The second uncle really got it right. It is said that every family has its own troubles, but it is rare for Yang's father to commit suicide. He died in bed in a miserable old age. Yang Yingwen, who was worth hundreds of millions, did not come back to see him, let alone offer him a red thread to treat his illness.

Of course, this is also because he has not kept up with the times. If it were in the information explosion society of the future, Yang's father would have had the audacity to go to court and sue Yang Yingwen.

On the morning of the 29th, Li Heng called Quxinyan and rode a -meter-high bicycle to the brigade headquarters first, and then to the police station in the town.

The post office and the police station were next to each other. As soon as I stopped my bike, I bumped into my old classmate Yang Cheng, who excitedly shouted:

"Lao Heng, Zhang Zhiyong, are you here to apply for a household registration transfer certificate as well?"

Zhang Zhiyong walked over and picked him up, saying with difficulty: "Fuck you, Yang Cheng, did you grow up eating urea? How come you are heavier again?"

"Hehe, you've been eating and drinking a lot at home every day without doing anything, so you've gained weight, right?" Yang Cheng touched his fat belly, not caring at all.

Li Heng asked: "Lao Yang, which exam did you take?"

Yang Cheng said: "A university in Shanghai."

Zhang Zhiyong ridiculed him: "Hey, why did you go to Shanghai? Didn't you say you were confident that you could get into Renmin University?"

Yang Cheng patted his chest and said, "I was originally going to Renmin University, but then I felt that Beijing was not as good as Shanghai. When Renmin University called me, I refused. I said, hello! I don't want to come to Renmin University anymore. Please return my file to my second choice, and then they did it obediently."

This clown is a drama queen. Li Heng found it funny. "As expected of Lao Yang, he is so handsome. With just one phone call, everyone has to give him face."

"That's right! That's not true! They don't even see what kind of person I am. All my friends are great writers." Yang Cheng smiled and followed the two of them into the police station.

College students in small towns are as rare as giant pandas these days. In particular, the police station staff became much more polite after seeing Li Heng's information, and even poured him three cups of tea. Although they were not flattering, they were not at all negligent. They wrote the certificate and stamped it with the official seal while chatting and laughing, and the whole thing was done in less than 20 minutes.

Coming out of the police station, Li Heng suddenly asked, "Oh, by the way, Lao Yang, aren't you from the same place as Xiao Feng? Why are you here alone today?"

"I was not at home a while ago, and Xiao Feng and the others have already left." Yang Cheng replied.

"Gone? Went to Peking University?" Li Heng asked in a daze.

"That's right. She just left without even saying goodbye. She doesn't even consider me as a friend. Next time she comes back during winter vacation, I will make sure to get her drunk." Yang Cheng was indignant.

Upon hearing this, Li Heng immediately had a bad feeling and turned around and quickly walked towards the post office next door to ask the staff inside.

Sure enough, Wei Shiman was gone. She had asked for leave, saying she was sending her daughter to school.

Not giving up, Li Heng called Xiao Han's home, but no one answered after three calls.

Yang Cheng said from the side: "Lao Heng, if you are looking for Xiao Han, don't bother. The three of them left yesterday afternoon, along with Yang Yingwen and Xiao Feng's family."

Zhang Zhiyong asked: "Who told you that?"

Yang Cheng said: "Zou Aiming, he also failed to get into Renmin University and is going to Changshi to study at university.

I went to their house this morning. When he came to the town to handle the household registration transfer procedures yesterday, he ran into Xiao Han and her group leaving by car. "

this.!

This doesn't make sense. I said I'd come back to pick her up, but this sinister girl just left on her own?
Li Heng remained depressed for a long time before he felt relieved.

In fact, it doesn’t matter whether you accept it or not, it’s just a formality.

Anyway, considering how much Wei Shiman and his wife love their daughter, Shanghai is so far away from home, so they must personally send her to school. Even if they go together, there won't be much time for them to spend alone on the way.

Unless the two of them make their relationship clear.

Will you make it clear?

Are you willing to make it clear?
Li Heng would definitely have no problem with it and would be very happy to do so. However, Xiao Han was a person who pursued perfection in love and would not agree so easily.

so.
After leaving the post office, the three of them went to Qian Yuejin's wonton shop to eat wontons. It turned out that the proprietress was not there today, so her daughter was taking her place.

Same wontons, same recipe, same soup, but the taste just doesn’t add up. Damn it, next time I see Xiao Han, I must give her a good beating.

After returning from the town, Li Heng didn't read a single word and concentrated on working in the brick kiln.

The closer the school starts, the more nervous I feel. My carefree attitude suddenly disappears, and I become more and more reluctant to leave.

In his previous life, he was young and fearless, and he only wanted to escape from this remote and poor place to see the prosperous world outside. He left with high aspirations as soon as he received the admission notice. It was not until he was old that he began to reflect: The lights in his hometown were on. Did he see a way out? Or did he see the way home?
As for people, returning to one's roots is not just a saying. Only when you grow old do you realize how precious your childhood and hometown are.

The night before leaving, Li Heng told Comrade Li Jianguo about the incident involving Feng Derang and his son at the No. 1 Middle School in the county. Li Jianguo was silent for a long time. Finally, he took out some wine, fried a plate of peanuts and a cabbage, and filled a bowl with vegetables. He said:

"You'll be leaving for school tomorrow, so let's have a drink as a family tonight."

As he spoke, he filled the glasses of wine for Tian Run'e, Li Lan, Li Heng and his eldest brother-in-law. His eldest sister drank water as she was breastfeeding. The family talked and drank warmly and did not fall asleep until late at night.
