Stargirl's guide to life in the 70s

The two left the house in the dark and walked towards the address on the note.

Yu Jiang saw the people from a distance, got out of the car and walked towards them.

Yu Jiang knew that although Zhang Tong's parents would come to find out the truth because of the information on the note, they would definitely have doubts about his identity.

Yu Jiang spoke first, "Hello, uncle and aunt. My name is Yu Jiang. I am a friend Zhang Tong met after he went to Fenghe Village. This time, I followed my husband to the northwest with the army. When Zhang Tong found out, he asked me to bring some things to you two."

Finally, fearing that his words were not convincing enough, Yu Jiang added: "You may also know my father. His name is Yu Jianshe. He was the team leader of the village where Zhang Tong and his friends went to work."

Zhang Tong's parents:!!!

It turned out to be the daughter of an old classmate!

Zhang Tong's parents' suspicions were immediately mostly gone. After all, even if someone wanted to plot against them, it was impossible for anyone to go through the trouble of checking the situation in the village where their son went to work, and even find out that the village leader was their college classmate.

"Did Zhang Tong ask you to come and see us? How is he now?"

Yu Jiang's concerns about his identity were almost dispelled, and Zhang's mother was concerned about her son's situation first.

Yu Jiang handed over the letter in his hand and said, "This is a letter Zhang Tong wrote to you, uncle and aunt. Shall we get in the car and read it?" He gestured to the jeep behind him.

Zhang Tong's parents then realized that the girl in front of them actually drove here? !

This...is not a simple role!

In response, Yu Jiang simply explained that the car belonged to her husband, and then the three of them walked towards the car.

It has become a habit for Yu Jiang to push any troubles he encounters onto Lu Beiyuan when he is too lazy to explain.

"Zhang Tong is doing well now. He is used to farm work and can earn seven or eight work points every day. He also translates foreign languages ​​to earn royalties. The money he earns from translation is enough to support himself and his wife.

Oh! By the way, Zhang Tong is married now. He is in a free love relationship with the daughter of the current village leader, named He Zhile.

The He family and our Yu family have been old friends for many years. My father has checked their character, so there is absolutely nothing to be said for it.

Besides, there are only two elderly people in the He family now, my uncle He, aunt He, and brother He Zhile.

The elders in the He family are all easy to get along with. He Zhile's brother now works in the county machinery factory and is married to a pretty girl in the Public Security Bureau.

Also, He Zhile is already six or seven months pregnant, so you and your aunt will be grandparents soon."

Before the two read the letter, Yu Jiang briefly summarized Zhang Tong's recent situation to Zhang Tong's parents.

Maybe it was because she spoke too fast, but Zhang Tong's parents were unable to digest the information Yu Jiang gave them.

Is your son married?

My daughter-in-law is about to give birth?

But they, as parents, only found out now!

Zhang Tong's parents suddenly felt that they had failed in their duty to their son and couldn't help feeling depressed.

Fortunately, they were already in the car, and Yu Jiang took out a flashlight from the storage box to help Zhang Tong's parents read the letter Zhang Tong wrote to them.

There were quite a lot of scattered things written in the letter, but Yu Jiang had just told the two of them the specific situation in advance, so when Zhang Tong's parents saw the letter again, their ability to accept it seemed to have increased by several levels.

However, Zhang Tong spent a lot of space in the letter to praise his wife, which made Zhang Tong's parents speechless. If they didn't know Zhang Tong's handwriting, they would probably doubt whether the person who wrote the letter was their son? !

However, this was a letter of extraordinary significance. Zhang Tong's parents shed more tears when they finally received news about their son and learned that he was safe and sound.

Yu Jiang handed each of them a piece of paper and asked them to wipe the tears from their faces: "Uncle and aunt, calm down first. If you have anything to say, I will call Zhang Tong later and you can tell him in person."

After these words were spoken, Zhang's mother, who had been crying uncontrollably just now, and Zhang's father, who was trying to hold back his tears and comfort his wife, were both stunned.

WTF?

Call up!

How is that possible! Where can they make a phone call in the middle of the night?!

Then they went to Yu Jiang and took out a small thing and tinkered with it twice, and the thing made a beeping sound.

Zhang Tong's parents were so focused on the little gadget in front of them that they completely forgot about their previous sadness, and even their son.

"This thing works similarly to a normal telephone. Just use it as a normal phone."

As soon as Yu Jiang finished explaining, Zhang Tong, who had been waiting for a long time, answered the phone.

Knowing that Zhang Tong wanted to contact his parents very much, Yu Jiang called Zhang Tong in advance today and told him that he would be able to talk to his parents in the evening.

Ever since receiving the notice from Yu Jiang, Zhang Tong has been staying by the phone since he had lunch in the afternoon, and even takes the phone with him when he goes to the toilet.

As it turned out, Zhang Tong's decision to take his phone to the toilet was a very wise one, because it was in the toilet that he received a call from Yu Jiang.

How can I say it? I can only say that it’s a good thing it wasn’t a video, otherwise Zhang Tong’s embarrassment would be a small matter. If Lu Beiyuan knew about it, he would definitely go and settle the score with Zhang Tong.

"Hello, Yu Jiang, wait for me." After saying that, Zhang Tong stuffed the phone that was still being used into his pocket and quickly stood up to leave the bathroom.

Yu Jiang and Zhang Tong's parents on the opposite side looked at each other in bewilderment, and heard sporadic noises, having no idea what was going on across the way.

But even though it was only one sentence, Zhang Tong's parents recognized their son's voice at once, and the tears that Zhang's mother had managed to hold back burst out again.

After a while, Zhang Tong's voice sounded again: "Hey, Yu Jiang, you have found my parents now, right?"

Zhang Tong's voice was filled with anxiety and nervousness, and Zhang's mother on the other end of the phone burst into tears.

Yu Jiang kindly handed all the papers in the car to Zhang's mother.

"Uncle and aunt are by my side now. We are in the car now and are safe. If you have anything to talk about, just talk on the phone!"

After that, Yu Jiang handed the phone to Zhang's father, who was now relatively stable. "Uncle and aunt, you guys can chat slowly. I'll get off the car and wait for you. Call me when you're done."

After saying this, without waiting for Zhang Tong's parents to react, Yu Jiang got out of the car first.

There was a family of three or four people talking on the phone, and Yu Jiang would not be a clueless light bulb.

Fortunately, there is a river nearby. Yu Jiang prepared the spot in the afternoon and prepared fishing gear by the river. Now, even if Zhang Tong and the others chatted all night, Yu Jiang would not feel bored.

Yu Jiang specially prepared bait for fishing. The fish in the river had not been fed by fishermen in this era, so I don’t think they would be able to resist taking the bait...

Sure enough, two hours later, when Zhang's father got out of the car to find Yu Jiang, Yu Jiang had already caught more than twenty fish.

This was the result after Yu Jiang released all the small fish that he looked down upon.

After a great success on his first fishing trip, Yu Jiang became more interested in fishing and planned to make it an important part of his retirement life.

Seeing Zhang's father coming towards him, Yu Jiang also put away his fishing rod and walked back with the bucket: "I'm done with the call! Uncle, is there anyone here who is making things difficult for you?"

Yu Jiang looked serious, as if if Zhang's father said yes, Yu Jiang would deal with the other party in the next second.

Father Zhang felt very happy when he saw the behavior of his old classmate's child.

It was really worth it that he accompanied Yu Jianshe to buy flowers in the middle of winter in order to help him pursue his wife.

It turns out that good people are rewarded. The help I gave to my brother can now pay off my father’s debt.

But no matter what, Zhang's father still doesn't want Yu Jiang to do anything irreparable for his family.

"Don't worry, uncle and your aunt, we are not suffering much here except for being a little tired. People here are usually busy with their own livelihoods and don't have the time to pay attention to us."

Yu Jiang believed this, after all, she had seen the same scene.

"After that, I will bring over everything Zhang Tong sends to you. Due to the nature of my job, I can't say for sure when I can come over. But don't worry, uncle and aunt, I will definitely come over once a month at most.

If you need anything, please tell me in advance and I will bring it to you next time."

After saying this, Yu Jiang seemed to have thought of something troublesome, and after a moment of hesitation, he said, "It's just that if I send things to you like this, even if the people on the farm are careful, they won't notice it, but the other people who live with you and have been sent down will definitely notice it.

I am not a stingy person. If they are people like you uncles and aunts who have been wronged and demoted, and are worthy of help, I can lend a helping hand.

But if they are the other way around, then I really need to find a way to get rid of them.”
