Second Marriage in the 1970s - Chapter 45
1976 was a turbulent year, and it was also a year that made the people of the whole country feel extremely sad. In this year, three great men passed away one after another. Although the Victory Commune was thousands of miles away from the capital, the people of the commune loved the great man. The heart is no worse than anyone else. The old people wept in grief after hearing the news. Various activities to mourn the great man were also carried out in the school.
This year’s National Day is not as lively as in previous years, because more than 20 days ago, our great people’s savior Chairman M passed away.
At the end of October, the commune suddenly notified Zhao Donglin to go to the county seat for a meeting. The meeting lasted for two days. When he returned, he brought back a message to the village head that the digital help had fallen.
“Yeah, why did you say it fell down?”
The village chief Xu Haiming smoked a cigarette, his face flickered in the smoke ring, he couldn’t tell what he was feeling in his heart, as if he was relieved and somewhat at a loss.
Everyone’s life in the past ten years has not been easy, especially in the past few years, when they went online if they didn’t agree with each other, he, the village chief, also had a heart in mind.
“The above means to stabilize the people’s minds, to find and solve problems in time. The news has not come out yet, but it does not rule out that the worms of the centipede die but are not stiff, and the grasshoppers in the post-autumn period can also jump.”
Xu Haiming nodded, “I know, I know the seriousness of this problem. Don’t worry, I will never make political mistakes.”
He is just a village chief, unlike Zhao Donglin, who was sent by the commune. Like this meeting, the commune named Zhao Donglin, indicating that Zhao Donglin was highly valued by the above. At Zhao Donglin’s age, he could not stay in the village as the village party secretary for the rest of his life. He wants to go up, but he is different. He is in his forties. It is good to be able to be a village head. His biggest goal is to be transferred to the commune someday, no matter what he is doing. , Just have a cadre establishment.
In fact, the leaders above have been thinking too much. The people don’t care about politics, especially in Shanghe Village, which is so far away from the political center. Everyone only cares about whether they can eat and wear, whether they can live and work in peace.
Even if the sky is falling, don’t be afraid, if there is a tall one against it, what will not fall, as long as it does not affect your life.
“Why have you been there for so long this time?”
I had a meeting in the county before, and I could go back in the morning and at night. Unlike this time, I stayed in the county for one night.
As a traveller, Dong Jiahui knows the major events that have occurred in the country at various times, but she is in a historical cruise and cannot be a tourist outside of the incident. Her worry about Zhao Donglin comes from the bottom of her heart. After all, knowing more can not be replaced. Life itself.
Zhao Donglin had just taken a shower and was wiping his head with a towel. He didn’t hide it when he heard his wife asked.
“The news from the above shows that the Communist Party has collapsed. During a special period, the county leaders prevented errors in the work of all levels and made arrangements for everyone to meet.”
That’s all he can say. This is just a few words from his own wife. If someone asks, Zhao Donglin would never say anything. After two years of marriage with Jiahui, he knows that Jiahui is not much talking and the governor is reasonable. , What should be said and what should not be said can be very precise.
Dong Jiahui thought that this is indeed the case. The collapse of the Communist Party of China indicates that the country is about to start a new era, and the pace of reform and opening up has taken a step forward. Moreover, the college entrance examination will soon be put on the agenda.
In fact, Dong Jiahui has already turned out the original high school textbooks. She is a modern student, but the book knowledge of this era is very different from later generations. If you familiarize yourself in advance, you can prepare in advance to ensure that you are foolproof.
In addition to textbooks, she also found some review materials, and sometimes pretended to forget the knowledge points to ask Meixiang, so that Meixiang was forced to review high school knowledge from time to time.
Meixiang once asked Jiahui why she should read high school textbooks. Jiahui’s answer was, “As parents, we must lead by example and set a good example for our children. The black egg will go to elementary school next year. He reads books every day. At that time, I accompany him to learn together, so that he knows the importance of learning. The other is to review the old and learn the new, and the knowledge is to learn often. I found that I lost this knowledge for a period of time and it would be completely lost. When I grow up, I have questions about whether I can’t, and I tell them directly that I can’t. Will my elders lose face?”
This passage completely stunned Mei Xiang. Although she didn’t understand the relationship between high school textbooks and black eggs, her sister-in-law’s words sounded very reasonable.
She is now a small fan of Jiahui. This year, under Jiahui’s leadership, her cooking skills have improved and she has learned basic clothes making skills. Jiahui also took her to make schoolbags and sold them to the supply and marketing agency, earning a year After more than one hundred yuan, the matchmaker for her is almost breaking the threshold of her family.
“Mom, the good and the bad introduced by those matchmakers are different. We have to visit one by one. In fact, it’s nothing good to get married early. Going to your in-law’s house does not make you comfortable at home. It is tiring to serve the older ones and the younger ones. After all, I met you. The probability of such a good mother-in-law is too small, besides, Meixiang is not in a hurry to marry, so don’t worry.”
Zhang Qiao’er wanted to tell her about her to her daughter soon. When Jiahui said that, the daughter herself meant the same. So she let go of her mind and prepared to wait for her to be 20 years old.
Since my sister-in-law said it’s good to read more books, it’s definitely good to read more books. Sometimes when Jiahui is busy with other things and has no time to study with the black eggs, Meixiang will hold the book to accompany the black eggs, and first teach him to read, himself. Meixiang reads her own book when she learns to digest herself.
Zheng Yuefen often talked coldly, saying that the Zhao family was going to have a few champions. The young ones started to recognize characters before they even went to school, and the older ones still regarded themselves as students, holding books all day.
“That’s why my mother-in-law can tolerate it. She doesn’t do the work at home. She holds a book all day and treats herself as a lady in the city. With a lady’s heart, it is the life of a maid.”
After the words were spread, the elderly woman in the village would also ask questions around the corner when she met Zhang Qiao’er.
“I heard that your eldest daughter-in-law doesn’t do anything at home and reads with a book all day. Isn’t it true?”
Zhang Qiao’er knew who had said this as soon as he heard it. He was tired of her second child’s mouth being broken, but her face was not visible. She tugged at the corners of her mouth and explained with a smile, “If there’s nothing, don’t mention the old folks more diligently, do it. It’s too unreliable to listen to someone who said this, I’m taking a child, and helping others to sew.”
“Oh ha ha, this, isn’t it just heard from others.”
The two of them were busy and lay down on the bed. Jia Huiyi was in Zhao Donglin’s arms. She looked at the mosquito net under the pressure of her head and said in a low voice, “Donglin, let me tell you something.”
Zhao Donglin patted Jiahui’s arm, his voice was deep and soft, “Okay, you say.”
Jiahui thought about the wording, and said, “If, I said, if, if the national policy is changed in the future, those of us who have not gone to college for special reasons can one day take the college entrance examination. If there is such a chance, you will be able to take the college entrance examination. Do you want to participate?”
Zhao Donglin didn’t understand why his wife suddenly talked about this, the college entrance examination, it was too far away, so far away as if it were the last century.
“There won’t be such an opportunity, let’s go to sleep.”
Jiahui is in a hurry, so why won’t she have a chance? The policy of resuming the college entrance examination next year will come out!
She turned around and lay on the bed, grabbing Zhao Donglin’s clothes corner and eagerly said, “I said in case, if there is such an opportunity, will you support me to continue studying?”
Zhao Donglin frowned in the dark, feeling that his wife was a little abnormal today, no matter if there was such an opportunity, even if they did, they were already married and working, and they were not students in the school, so they were not eligible to participate.
But he heard what the wife meant. She was eager to go to college and progress. In fact, she could see that she often held high school textbooks.
“Do you want to go to college?”
Jiahui lay on the bed and was tired with the arms supporting her upper body, and she leaned into Zhao Donglin’s arms again.
“Of course, people can’t live in a muddle-headed manner. To realize the value of life, the Communist Party will collapse, and the country is facing tremendous changes and reforms. This is an era that is waiting to be flourished. All classes of society lack professional talents. The country needs talents. Young people, in this context, we should stand up and contribute to the country.”
Zhao Donglin couldn’t help but smile when he heard the words. He thought his wife was really cute.
It is undeniable that there is some truth in what the wife said. The Communist Party collapsed, and the central government will definitely make corresponding reforms and adjustments. Over the past ten years, national education has been affected, and many experts and scholars have been delegated. Contributors, but this kind of words from his wife’s mouth makes him laugh.
“I didn’t see that you were so patriotic before, and you wholeheartedly wanted to contribute to the country.”
Jiahui heard the ridicule in Zhao Donglin’s words and knocked him angrily with her elbow.
“I’m telling you business, don’t joke with me.”
Zhao Donglin sighed, let alone when the education environment will be restored, it may be one year, two years, or even more. It is unknown whether an over-aged and married identity can participate in the examination and selection as his wife said. One, even if it is true, in his perception, struggle is a man’s business. As his wife, Jiahui only needs a happy and stable life.
When Wang Mei divorced him, she shouted “dream” and “future”, and her words were full of dissatisfaction with rural life, because they had a common feeling, and he was a man of dignity, unwilling to bow her head to plead for a single heart. The woman who wanted to leave, he agreed to the divorce. When the political commissar was talking, he didn’t say anything about Wang Mei’s fault. If he sincerely wanted to hold her back, the marriage would never be separated.
If the same thing were put on Jiahui, he would not let it go anyway.
Therefore, no matter what Jiahui says about the value of life or what she contributes to the country, to him, it can’t compare to her daily gentle smile and soft talk.
“Are you dissatisfied with your life now?”
Zhao Donglin didn’t answer Jiahui’s words directly, but instead asked her a question. After Jiahui heard it, her heart swelled, knowing that Zhao Donglin had misunderstood her.
“No, I am not dissatisfied with my current life, I just said that if there is such an opportunity, we can go together…”
Halfway through, Jiahui stopped talking. Hey, what’s the point of what he said now? He didn’t believe that there would be a resumption of the college entrance examination.
“Well then, the truce is today, let’s talk about it later.”
As soon as the voice fell, Zhao Donglin rolled over and leaned on Jiahui, and began to pay the public rations.
What he wanted was so cruel that day, Jiahui finally fell asleep in a daze. The next month, Jiahui found that her aunt had been delayed for a week, and her heart began to panic.
