14. Brothers

For the mother's proposal, except for Zheng Shan, the fifth and the brat Zheng Mingming, the rest of the people fully agreed.

"Indeed, it costs nearly eighty cents to eat meat every day. If you eat like this, you will be poor sooner or later." Dad Zheng Jianguo said in agreement.

Zheng Weijun did not speak, but his expression was also very agreeable. He was also a person who could endure hardships, and he was even more economical.

After all, after so many years of suffering, I haven't had a full stomach for many years.

"Third, don't be too lavish. Big brother knows that you have earned some money, but you have to save this money well. You will use it in your life when you marry a daughter-in-law in the future." Zheng Weijun persuaded him.

He didn't have much to say about this younger brother, after all, the food for their family was given by Zheng Shan.

But seeing his brother spend so much money, Zheng Weijun was also very distressed, and he was distressed for the money for his brother.

Zheng Shan looked at his mother's determined expression and asked tentatively, "Can you eat one meal in three days?"

For him, a person who doesn't like meat, it's a little uncomfortable not to eat meat for a day, not to mention eating once every two weeks.

And looking at my mother like this, it is estimated that even if I eat it once every two weeks, I will not buy too much at a time.

"Three days? You want to go to heaven?" Mom said angrily.

Zheng Shan sighed inwardly, it is estimated that the scene of the mother's kindness and filial piety will be difficult to maintain for a few more days, and the miss of not seeing each other for a long time is about to disappear completely.

"Five days, Mom, five days, really, it can't be any less, or I'll move out and eat alone." While his mother wasn't bored at all, Zheng Shan began to bargain.

If you wait a little longer, there will be no chance of bargaining.

Zhong Huixiu looked at her son and finally agreed, but finally mumbled: "I see how much money you have, and sooner or later you will be defeated."

That said, but in fact, Zhong Huixiu hid most of the money that Zheng Shan gave. During this time, it was their old couple's money that was spent.

She also helped to save the money given by her son for his son to marry a daughter-in-law.

............

"Third, you take this money back." When he was halfway through eating, Zheng Jianguo thought of something and stuffed a stack of money into Zheng Shan.

Zheng Shan was stunned and looked at it. This is the five hundred dollars that Zheng Shan gave his father a few days ago. Why did he get it back?

"Dad? What's the matter? Don't you want to change with the leader?" Zheng Shan asked puzzled.

Speaking of this Zheng Jianguo is full of anger.

"Wang Jianjun, this bastard, is an iron rooster. He actually wants to use the official exchange rate to exchange it. He doesn't want to spend more than a penny. Bah, he wants to be beautiful." Zheng Jianguo sighed fiercely.

You must know that the gap between the official exchange rate and the black market exchange rate should not be too large, and it is basically impossible to use official channels to exchange.

Therefore, the leader of the factory obviously wanted to take advantage of Zheng Jianguo.

He is also not afraid of being heard. In this day and age, it is quite normal to scold the leaders of the factory.

And because it is an iron rice bowl, the factory leaders can at most wear small shoes, and there is nothing to do with the employees.

"I knew for a long time that Wang Jianjun wasn't a good joke, but I didn't expect that he would be greedy for cheap and get to our house, yes, I won't change it." The mother also scolded when she heard the words.

If Zheng Jianguo really dared to exchange with Wang Jianjun like this today, Zhong Huixiu would definitely block their door and scold them.

Zheng Shan has no opinion on this, "Dad, if he can give you a promotion, then change it. Anyway, I don't lack this money for your son."

Before Zheng Jianguo could speak, his mother said, "How much money do you have? Ah? With such a big tone, I'm really not afraid of choking myself to death."

Zheng Shan opened his mouth, but in the end he could only sigh without saying a word.

He didn't care much about it, anyway, his father's factory was just like that, it wasn't that good.

Not too bad either.

If it was really bad, it wouldn't be able to support so many people in their family.

Coupled with my father's long working experience, it is basically difficult for leaders to make things difficult, so let's do it.

As for letting Dad resign?

Zheng Shan didn't dare to say this, he would really be beaten to death if he said it.

............

At nine o'clock in the evening, every household had already rested. Not a single house in their compound had a TV, and not many had a radio.

So go to bed very early.

And there is no time left.

Zheng Shan walked out of the house, found a place to sit down, smoked a cigarette, and looked at the still bright night sky.

In the future, it is basically difficult to see this in the land of the capital. Not to mention the air environment at that time, the bright lights at night will make the night sky a lot bleak.

Zheng Shan just looked at the night sky so quietly, thinking about things.

During the time when he returned home, Zheng Shan knew that his decision was right. Even if the convenience of living was not as comfortable as in the United States, he had no intention of going back to live.

It's okay to take a vacation once in a while.

Zheng Shan still likes the Chinese way of life.

Thinking about things, Zheng Shan heard footsteps for a while, and then saw a black shadow appear.

Hei Ying also saw Zheng Shan, but he didn't expect Zheng Shan to be sitting in the yard at this time, but he didn't speak, and was about to leave.

"Great Garden." Zheng Shan shouted.

From Ma Li's words this morning, Zheng Shan speculated that the person from last night was Li Yuan.

Hearing Zheng Shan's cry, Hei Ying's footsteps paused, but he continued to walk forward as if he hadn't heard it.

"Da Yuan, it's so late, don't you want me to knock on your door?" Zheng Shan confirmed his guess and continued.

This time the shadow stopped, hesitated for a moment, and walked towards Zheng Shan.

"Dashan, you're back." Li Yuan forced a smile on his face. It wasn't that he didn't want to see this brother who played from childhood to adulthood, but he was shameless and was afraid of embarrassment.

Zheng Shan looked at Li Yuan, who was the same age as him. Li Yuan's face was full of fatigue, and there was no blood at all, and he looked very thin.

The bones on his face can be seen, it is hard to think that this is the sturdy Li Yuan from the past.

Zheng Shan smiled and patted it as he said, "Not long after I came back, sit down, our brothers haven't seen each other for seven years."

Li Yuan sat down casually, "Yeah, it's been seven years."

The tone of his words was full of sighs. These seven years have been earth-shaking changes for him.

"Smoke one." Zheng Shan handed over a cigarette.

Li Yuan hesitated for a while, but still took it, and then he was silent, he didn't know what to say.

"I only learned about you, Dayuan, our brothers have nothing else to say. When you were young, you secretly stole food from my house." Zheng Shan said in a relaxed tone.

"I'm not very clear about your specific situation. If you want to tell me, if you don't want to say it, then wait until you want to say it.

But I will only say that we are brothers, and this remains the same. "
