Siheyuan: He Yuzhu since 1958

After listening to Lou Xiao'e's words, Lou Zhenhua thought about it, looked at Tan Lingya with a smile, and said, "How is it?! My daughter is amazing, right?!"

"Great! Great! It's all thanks to you!" After saying that, Tan Lingya picked up a piece of boiled chicken and put it in the bowl in front of Lou Zhenhua, saying, "I'll reward you with a piece of chicken to replenish your body!"

After dinner, Lou Xiao'e said hello to her parents and returned to her room. Lou Xiao'e sat in front of the dressing table, opened the drawer of the dressing table, took out a diary and started writing.

After writing the diary, Lou Xiao'e put the diary back into the drawer of the dressing table, took out a diary she had kept when she was in Beijing, walked to the bed, sat on it, and read the contents of the diary as if she were reading a novel.

As Lou Xiao'e looked at her, she recalled He Yuzhu's appearance. A sweet smile appeared on her face, and she thought to herself, "I wonder how he is doing now?! When I get back, I'll find a chance to go see him."

At the same time, Yan Bugui arrived at the courtyard. He Yuzhu, who had just finished his meal and was about to wash up, heard a knock on the door, opened the door, and saw Yan Bugui and asked curiously, "Uncle, what brings you here?!"

Yan Bugui smiled and replied, "Of course, the good wind of making money brought me here."

He Yuzhu made way and said, "Third uncle, come in!"

After Yan Bugui entered the room, He Yuzhu closed the door, poured a glass of water and handed it to Yan Bugui, and asked, "Uncle, have you heard about the house again?!"

Yan Bugui said: "Didn't a lot of people come back after being rehabilitated during this period?! Those people don't want to stay in the city anymore, so they want to sell their houses."

He Yuzhu said, "Uncle San, you know my temper. I don't want the slums that have already been allocated!"

Yan Bugui said: "Zhu Zi, don't you know what kind of person I am, your uncle?!"

He Yuzhu asked: "Where is the house?! How much is the owner asking?!"

Yan Bugui replied, "There are four houses in total. The largest one is a three-story courtyard. This courtyard has east and west courtyards. After the house was taken away, it became a police dormitory. Now, he has been rehabilitated. The house was returned to him. Now he wants to move out and wants 8,000 yuan. If you bargain, 7,000 yuan will get him. The other three are two-story courtyards. The price is between 3,000 and 5,000 yuan."

He Yuzhu asked: "Uncle, when can we see the house?!"

Yan Bugui replied: "Any time."

He Yuzhu said, "Well! I basically have nothing to do after 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon. You wait for me at the gate of our factory at 2:30 tomorrow afternoon. Then, you take me to see the house."

"Okay!" Yan Bugui responded, and said, "Tomorrow, I will be there on time!"

After He Yuzhu sent Yan Bugui away, he closed the door and took out the money he had earned over the years from the space. As for how much he had earned over the years, He Yuzhu himself didn't know. Anyway, the cash covered the bed.

He Yuzhu counted out 30,000 yuan and put it into a backpack. Then he put the remaining money back into the space, lay down on the bed and fell asleep quickly.

Time passed little by little, and in the blink of an eye it was late October 1977. The news of the resumption of the college entrance examination spread like wings to every corner of the country.

When He Yuzhu got home from get off work, he saw the door was open and curiously pushed it open and walked in. He saw his four children were all there. He Yuzhu curiously asked, "Today is not Sunday, why are you four back?!"

He Qing said with a smile: "Dad, your information is too accurate, isn't it?!"

He Yuzhu reacted instantly and asked, "Have all four of you signed up?!"

He Bing replied: "We went to sign up early this morning."

He Yuzhu nodded silently and said, "Since you have signed up, you should prepare well."

He Bing said, "Dad, we want to move back to review."

He Yuzhu asked, "You guys have moved back. What about Uncle Zhou?!"

He Yong said: "Dad, Uncle Zhou has been taken away!"

"Taken away?!" He Yuzhu was stunned and asked, "Who picked him up?!"

He Yong said, "Two people came in the afternoon. One was named Chen Guohua and the other was named Ma Xiaowu. They chatted with Uncle Zhou for a while, and then Uncle Zhou called Aunt Zhou Qiao. Not long after, Aunt Zhou Qiao and her husband came. I don't know what they talked about, but Aunt Zhou Qiao cried. By the way, this is Uncle Zhou's letter to you!" After that, He Yong took out a letter from his trouser pocket and handed it to He Yuzhu.

He Yuzhu took the envelope, took out the letter and read it carefully. It turned out that Zhou Zhiqian was completely rehabilitated. Not only did he now have a pension, but he was also arranged a new place to live. From now on, Zhou Zhiqian could live an upright life in the sunshine.

After reading the letter, He Yuzhu looked at his four children with a smile and said, "The leader has arranged for your Grandpa Zhou to live in a nursing home. The phone number and address are on the letter. Go and see him when you are free." After that, He Yuzhu handed the letter to He Bing.

He Bing and his four children were busy reviewing, and He Yuzhu, the father, was not idle either. During this period, He Yuzhu had bought a lot of houses under the introduction of Yan Bugui. Yan Bugui also earned a lot of commission from He Yuzhu. December 12. Early in the morning, He Yuzhu prepared a fried dough stick, a big pancake and an egg for each of the four children. He hoped that they could get a perfect score. Although the college entrance examination was also three days, foreign languages ​​were not included in the test scores in that era (I really envy that time!).

On December 12, when the last day of the exam ended, the candidates either had bright smiles on their faces or shed tears of excitement.

After the Chinese New Year, the college entrance examination results came out. All four of He Yuzhu's children passed. The eldest, He Bing, was admitted to Sijiucheng University, He Lin and He Qing were admitted to Union Medical College, and He Yong was admitted to Sijiucheng Aviation College.

On the third day after He Yuzhu sent his four children to college, He Yuzhu came to the boss's home. After cooking, He Yuzhu sat at the table with the boss and his wife, eating and chatting. As they chatted, the boss suddenly asked: "Zhuzi, your four children are not young anymore, right?!"

He Yuzhu replied: "No, he is not young anymore. Look, he is going to college this year."

Sister Qiao asked with a smile: "Zhu Zi, how many children do you have?!"

He Yuzhu replied, "Four! The eldest is eighteen this year, and the other three are triplets, three years younger than the eldest. They are sixteen in age."

"You are so lucky!" The big boss echoed, saying, "Zhu Zi, your wife has been gone for a long time. You are still young now, don't you consider finding another one?!"

He Yuzhu said, "Boss, I think we should just forget it! I am fine being alone now."

Sister Qiao advised: "Zhu Zi, listen to my advice and find someone! It's better to have someone who understands you than to be alone. In a few years, your children will graduate from college and have their own lives. They won't live with you forever."

He Yuzhu said, "Sister Qiao, this is not urgent. Let me think about it carefully. Even if I agree, the children don't like it. Wouldn't that make me uncomfortable?!"

The big boss said, "Okay! Let's let Zhuzi think about it carefully. Let's eat!"
