Zhou Yuheng wiped the kang clean and spread a mat on it.

Take out bedding, pillows, etc. in the sun to remove odors.

After all the hassle, it’s time for dinner.

During the meal, Xu Qingluo told Zhou Yuheng a lot of things.

Zhou's mother is coming, so they have to prepare more food.

It’s impossible for Zhou’s mother to come all the way to take care of her and help subsidize the family, right?

It’s okay that she and Zhou Yuheng don’t give any pension money.

It is really unacceptable that Zhou's mother has to subsidize this.

"fine."

"These few days when I get off work, I will go and exchange some with the villagers."

Zhou Yuheng knew what his wife was thinking. She was the type of person who didn't like to trouble others.

Even if the other person is a family member, she doesn't want her family to worry about her.

"Okay, just change it to more coarse grains."

"Fine grains won't last long."

"We can just go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy it when we have time."

"it is good."

The couple chatted about family matters while eating.

In the next few days, the couple each performed their duties.

Xu Qingluo was responsible for dinner, and after get off work, Zhou Yuheng went to the village to exchange food with the villagers.

The couple cooperated with each other, and the so-called work is not tiring when men and women work together.

Before Zhou's mother arrived in Xuecheng, the house was already cleaned up by the two of them.

Nothing was left out of preparation and packing.

Everything is ready, now all that’s waiting is for Zhou’s mother to come.

Soon the day arrived when Zhou's mother arrived in Xuecheng, and Zhou Yuheng drove to the city to pick her up early in the morning.

"Wait, take this food with you."

Xu Qingluo came out of the kitchen and brought the prepared food to Zhou Yuheng.

Zhou Yuheng went to the city to pick someone up, and it took ten hours to go there and back.

There were three eggs cooked by Xu Qingluo and three meat buns in the lunch box.

This was for Zhou Yuheng to take with him to satisfy his hunger on the road.

"After picking up Mom, take her to the state-owned restaurant to eat something."

"Mom must have suffered a lot after traveling all this time."

"Remember to drive slowly. I'll wait for you at home."

Xu Qingluo kept instructing Zhou Yuheng. She knew that Zhou Yuheng must be thinking about her when he went to the city.

She was afraid that Zhou Yuheng would be in a hurry to come back and drive too fast and have an accident.

You should know that the proportion of people who died in car accidents in later generations is very high.

There were no traffic rules and no zebra crossings in that era.

Whether it is a group of people walking, driving ox carts or driving cars, they are all on the same road, so drivers should be more careful.

"it is good."

Zhou Yuheng looked at Xu Qingluo who was chattering in front of him with a gentle look.

Of course, you have to listen to what your wife says.

"Here's the money."

Xu Qingluo stuffed a few meat coupons and grain coupons into Zhou Yuheng's pocket, as well as twenty yuan.

After all, when you go out, you won’t be worried if you have money and tickets in your hands!

"Wife, I have money."

Zhou Yuheng is really rich. Xu Qingluo gives him 20 yuan pocket money every month.

The 20 yuan pocket money is the most in the entire residential compound.

Even though Xu Qingluo came to join the army, the pocket money did not decrease.

On the contrary, Zhou Yuheng had food and shelter, and had no place to spend the money.

He saved all his pocket money and used it to buy face cream for his wife.

"Take it."

"By the way, I'll go to the supply and marketing cooperative and buy some cakes to eat on the way back."

"Don't let Mom starve."

This money was mainly for Zhou's mother. Zhou Yuheng felt warm in his heart when he heard that she was always thinking about Zhou's mother.

"it is good."

Zhou Yuheng took his things and got into the car and left. Xu Qingluo watched the car leave and was about to close the door and go into the house.

As a result, I saw Captain Zhang and his wife coming out from next door.

Captain Zhang's wife went to water the vegetable garden, while Captain Zhang went to work.

"Captain Zhou's wife."

"Did your old Zhou go to pick up your mother-in-law?"

"Yes, I just left."

The couple chatted briefly with Xu Qingluo. Captain Zhang was in a hurry to go to work, so he left first.

"Captain Zhang's wife, are you going to the vegetable garden?"

"Yes."

"I'll go as well."

Their vegetable garden hasn't been watered yet today.

Since Zhou Yuheng was not at home, the job of watering naturally fell on her.

"Okay, I'll let my Xiaojun help you."

"Xiaojun, don't stay in the house."

"Go help your aunt with her work!"

Captain Zhang's wife (Sun Cui Ju) shouted into the house, and Zhang Jun heard the voice and came out.

"Aunt Zhou, let me help you."

Zhang Jun will be a sophomore in high school in September. The 9-year-old boy is very strong and tall.

Zhang Jun went to the backyard to help Xu Qingluo fetch water. When he saw Xu Qingluo watering the vegetable garden in the backyard, he enthusiastically helped water it.

Xu Qingluo looked at Zhang Jun's enthusiastic and youthful appearance, and felt admiration in her heart.

Young people are good.

"Your Xiaojun is going to be a sophomore in high school, right?"

"Yes, Lao Zhang and I are worried about this."

When talking about her eldest son, Captain Zhang's wife (Sun Cui Ju) couldn't help but sigh.

Xu Qingluo looked at her with some confusion. She had heard that Zhang Jun's academic performance was pretty good.

After graduation, I can ask someone to help me find a job to stay in Syracuse. I think it should be no problem.

But now, seeing Captain Zhang's wife (Sun Cuiju) looking worried.

Could it be that Zhang Jun doesn't want to stay in Xuecheng?

"Your little army has a sign."

"The results are not bad either."

"I'll be graduating from high school by then."

"Could someone find me a job to stay in Snow City?"

You know, a high school diploma is very popular nowadays, and Zhang Jun also meets the requirements and does not need to go to the countryside.

"My husband and I think the same way."

"But Xiaojun is not happy about it."

"He said he didn't want to go to work."

"So, are we supposed to go to the countryside to do construction?"

Xu Qingluo's eyes were full of confusion. This shouldn't be the case.

Even if Zhang Jun graduated from high school by then, he would only be 15 years old.

This is not the right age to go to the countryside, not to mention who would want their children to suffer in the countryside!

To put it nicely, it means going to the countryside; to put it bluntly, it means going there to suffer.

A teenage boy from a good family goes to the countryside, and I wonder how many people will miss him.

If someone plots against me, my life will be ruined.

"How could we bear to send our children to the countryside?"

"But you also know that my Xiaojun likes to build houses."

"He said he wanted to do this after graduation."

"But where will he get the job of building a house?"

"No matter how much Lao Zhang and I try to persuade him, it's useless. I'm so overwhelmed."

Xu Qingluo really didn't expect that Zhang Jun was so obsessed with building houses.

If it were in the future, I could go through professional and systematic training and become an architectural designer.

But under the current circumstances, there is no place to provide such training.

What's more, it is difficult for everyone to fill their stomachs now, so it is an honor to be a worker.

No family would let their children stay at home all the time just for the sake of their hobbies.

"Your Xiaojun will only be 15 years old when he graduates."

"Isn't it too old to go to work?"

Xu Qingluo remembered that the requirement to be a worker was to be at least 16 years old, and 15 years old was not enough.
