The sun shines down warmly, shining through the gaps between the leaves, casting mottled shadows on the ground, warm and cozy. In the shadows, there is a small dot that keeps flickering.
A tiny person slowly crawled over, shining a little light into her eyes, and she subconsciously shielded them with her arms. She moved her body to make herself more comfortable.
After adjusting her sitting position, she took out her notebook and waited quietly.
Suddenly a slightly stern female voice came, "What did your father say?"
Xiao Min was so scared that she quickly covered her mouth, her eyes rolling around. Seeing that the other party didn't hear her, she straightened her body and found that the flax was too high, so she had to kneel down and slowly stood up.
There was a vast expanse of green before her eyes, and she saw no human figures at all, so she sat down again.
A slightly hesitant male voice came over, "My father said he had no choice. The army came to select the candidates themselves, and he couldn't get involved."
"Can't you ask your father to think of a solution? Isn't your grandfather a veteran Red Army soldier? He should know the people in the army, right?"
There was another silence, and the girl seemed anxious, "Did you ask for me, or were you just lying when you said you liked me?"
"No, I didn't tease you!"
"Qian Yuetao! Can you please stop being so shy? You are not a grown-up girl. If you can do it, do it. If you can't, forget it!"
"Lijun, please believe me, I am sincere to you, but this matter..."
"But, but, what else can you say besides but? Can you protect me and pave the way for me like a real man?"
"Lijun, I'll go back and ask my dad! Don't be angry!"
"Then why don't you go!"
Then there was the sound of flax being spread out, and someone ran away quickly.
"You are so useless! If it weren't for the fact that you are still somewhat useful, who would want to date a young man like you? You are so stupid and dumb!"
Xiao Min, who had been hiding in the dark, turned pale with anger. This elder sister was too venomous. Although cousin Yue Tao was a little stupid, she couldn't say that to him!
She opened her mouth to retort, but someone covered her mouth with her hands, "Shh!"
It was Brother Xiaoyang! Xiaomin's heart, which had been pounding with fear, instantly turned into joy.
Yuan Zeyang waited until Wu Lijun left before he let go of the hand that had been covering Xiao Min.
"Brother Xiaoyang, why did you come just now?"
"There were too many people on the road just now, and I was worried about being seen by others."
"Oh!" Xiao Min pouted, "Why did you cover my mouth just now? That big sister was scolding cousin Yuetao."
"You're too young. She'll beat you."
Xiao Min was shocked. "She can hit people?" She clenched her fists and said angrily, "I'll tell my uncle!"
Yuan Zeyang thought for a while and said, "Okay, you must tell your uncle her last words. Don't say it in front of others."
"Why?"
"Your cousin's mother might beat you."
Thinking of Zheng Xiaohua, Xiao Min said, "I know, Brother Xiaoyang."
She picked up the schoolbag on the ground and looked at Yuan Zeyang apologetically, "Brother Xiaoyang, I'll come to play with you next time."
"Okay, go ahead!"
Wangjiacun Brigade Office.
Qian Minghua is counting the candidates for this army recruitment. The number of recruits this time is relatively large, with 50 places available in the whole county.
Their Wangjia Village Production Team has two quotas this time.
Anyone who is over 18 years old and under 22 years old and has a good political background can sign up.
Wang Shouquan came over to look at the list. "There are about 40 applicants this time. It's not easy for my child to be selected."
Qian Minghua shook his head and said, "Let's leave it to fate."
"Can I ask your old man for help?"
Qian Minghua was stunned and put away his pen, "It's not impossible, but will it have a bad impact if others know about it
Wang Shouquan rubbed his head and said, "You are right! Our production team only has two quotas. If I still take the wrong path, I will be criticized."
"I hope you can think positively."
"Oh, my child is so naughty. His classmates are either teachers or accountants, but he can only work in the fields. He is so tired. It hurts me to see him like that."
"But at least he listens to you. What's the point of being an accountant like my father? He doesn't listen and just argues with me. My father's words have no authority at all."
"Children can be educated slowly, and beating and washing are useless. If he can be selected this time, you don't need to separate the two of them to break up."
"I hope so!" He picked up the pen and continued writing.
"Dad, I have something to talk to you about!" Qian Yuetao, who had been eavesdropping outside the door, couldn't bear it any longer and ran in.
Qian Minghua said coldly without even raising his head, "Go ahead!"
Qian Yuetao looked up at Wang Shouquan, who raised his eyebrows and said to Qian Minghua, "Okay, I won't disturb you and your son's conversation. I'm going home to eat first. Let's go together to hand in the list this afternoon."
"good!"
After Wang Shouquan left, Qian Yuetao spoke hesitantly, "Dad, can you think of a way to help Wu Lijun get selected?"
"Get out!" Qian Minghua put down his pen and stared at him unkindly.
Qian Yuetao was frightened when he glared at him, and his buttocks tightened subconsciously, "Dad, she is your future daughter-in-law, please help her."
Is this bastard trying to piss him off to death? Qian Minghua pointed at his nose and said, "You sent her to the army, do you think she will still date you?"
Qian Yuetao refused to give up, "I can marry her first! After we get married, she will be my wife and she won't be able to run away."
Qian Minghua wanted to slap this idiot, "You are only nineteen, not even old enough to get married, how can you get a marriage certificate?"
Qian Yuetao thought of what his mother said, that as long as you deflower a woman, she will be yours for life and will only think of you.
Qian Yuetao suddenly gained courage and said, "Dad, we can have the wedding banquet first. When we are old enough, we can apply for the marriage certificate later."
Qian Minghua was so angry that he lost his temper. He put away the notebook on the table and strode out.
I met Qian Weihan and Xiao Min walking towards this side.
Qian Minghua was full of sorrow.
"Dad, why are you here? Are you looking for me?" Even though he was so angry with his own son, Qian Minghua was able to calm down when he saw his father.
Qian Weihan glanced sideways at Qian Yuetao who had followed him out, his face darkening a little, "Come with me to the pig farm, I have something to tell you."
"good!"
Xiao Min did not go to the pig farm, but returned to the old house.
Her mother only let her out for a while, and she had to go back.
Arriving at the pig farm, Qian Weihan and Qian Minghua chatted for more than two hours. When they came out, both looked a little tired.
"Dad, I will think about what you said."
"Minghua, if you don't make a decision, you will suffer the consequences! If you don't straighten Yuetao out now, what will you do in the future when you are old?"
Qian Minghua lowered his head and nodded sullenly.
When Qian Minghua returned home, Zheng Xiaohua brought the food to the table.
Qian Minghua was eating, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot, and he remained silent.
Zheng Xiaohua was a little uneasy, but thinking of her son, she still said, "Dad, why don't you help Yue Tao? He is our child after all. If our daughter-in-law does well, it will be a glory for our family."
Qian Minghua said nothing and gave him a cold look.
Zheng Xiaohua's scalp tingled when she was looked at by him, and many tiny beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
Qian Minghua continued to eat with his head down.
"Ever since Yue Tao came back, he has been on a hunger strike."
Self-harm? Good job, this is forcing him to make a choice. Qian Minghua didn't even eat, and put the bowl heavily on the table, "Go and get all our savings."
Is this a way to use connections? Zheng Xiaohua was immediately delighted and hurriedly celebrated.
Looking at her beaming with joy, Qian Minghua just felt bad.
The money box was quickly brought over, and Qian Minghua counted it. Over the years, his savings totaled five hundred and seventy-three yuan.
Qian Minghua took 173 yuan from it and gave the rest to Zheng Xiaohua, "100 yuan of it is for Yueqiu's dowry. 200 yuan is for Yuetao to marry a wife. You can take the remaining 100 yuan."
Zheng Xiaohua was completely confused. What did this mean
"I'll use this one hundred and seventy-three yuan to rebuild the house. This house and all the things in it belong to you three. Let's separate later." After saying that, he went straight back to the house to pack his things.
Zheng Xiaohua was so shocked that she didn't say anything for a long time. When she came to her senses, she immediately went into the house.
She was so anxious that she kept pulling his hand, "Dad, what are you doing? This is your home, where are you going?"
"My home?" Qian Minghua laughed at himself and rubbed his brows. "I've figured it out now. While I'm still able to walk and work, I'll leave myself a way out. Otherwise, when I'm old and have to go through this again, I'll suffer a lot."
Zheng Xiaohua didn't understand what he meant.
"Over the years, I have been busy with the work of the production team, and you have spoiled the children. After all, they have grown up. I have fulfilled my responsibilities, and we can just separate from now on."
Somehow, Zheng Xiaohua's tears started streaming down her face, as if they could never stop.
She pulled, she cried, she knelt, but he remained determined, picked up his clothes and turned around and walked out of the room.
Qian Yuetao stood by the door, dumbfounded. He had been on a hunger strike, but his father had not come yet.
Hearing something was wrong in the main house, he hurried over to see, only to find his father carrying a sack and walking out without even looking at him.
"Dad, where are you going?"
Qian Minghua turned around and glanced at Qian Yuetao, and saw that he was avoiding her gaze. "Oh, do you know why I agreed to let you date that educated youth?"
Qian Yuetao was stunned, obviously not understanding why his father changed the subject so quickly.
Qian Minghua dropped a bomb, "Because I don't count on you anymore. How can you be so unfilial?"
Qian Yuetao was shocked, "Dad, I am your only son."
Qian Minghua looked at him expressionlessly and said coldly, "Son? An unfilial son will only cause trouble for me. From now on, you can live with your wife and your mother. Dad will move out. I have already chosen a house. I will choose it at the end of your village, and you will be neighbors with your aunt."
This was the solution he and Qian Weihan had come up with. Both children had been taught badly by Zheng Xiaohua. If he continued to support them, they would definitely go further and further astray.
It would be better to let them be self-reliant, let them see their own weight, and see if they can still live so easily without him as a big tree.
Qian Yuetao swallowed his saliva, obviously unwilling to believe it, "Dad, you are lying, right?"
"Believe it or not!" Qian Minghua picked up the sack and put it on his back. "When you get married, just come and let me know. I'll be there."
Qian Yuetao no longer cared about Wu Lijun's affairs. His mind was now filled with only one thing: his father didn't want him anymore.
His lips trembled as if he was about to cry, "Dad, where are you going?"
Qian Minghua ignored his reaction and said, "I'll go live at your cousin's house and supervise the construction of the house." After saying that, he walked out carrying the sack.
Qian Yuetao was so frightened that his face turned pale and he chased out of the yard. Qian Minghua had already reached the entrance of the alley. He tried his best to grab his father's arm, but was violently shaken away by his father.
By the time he got up from the ground, his father had already run away.
Qian Yuetao rubbed his waist and immediately turned around and ran home.
"Mom, mom, my dad is gone."
When Qian Yuetao pushed open the door, he saw his mother sitting on the kang wiping her tears, her eyes frighteningly red.
"Mom, what's wrong with you?"
Zheng Xiaohua rubbed her eyes and wiped the tears from her face, "Mom is fine."
Qian Yuetao pointed outside and said, "Mom, Dad has moved away. Let's persuade him to come back."
Zheng Xiaohua made a bitter face and lowered her head.
Qian Mingtao didn't understand, "Mom, why? Why did Dad move away?"
Zheng Xiaohua rubbed her eyes, "Your father has been dissatisfied with me for a long time. If it weren't for you and your brother, he might have divorced me a long time ago."
Zheng Xiaohua naturally knew about the man's mind. When he was drunk a few days ago, he kept yelling that he shouldn't marry her. Zheng Xiaohua felt like a bolt from the blue when she heard it at the time, but after a few days of calming down, she already knew that if she couldn't rely on her husband, she could rely on her son. So she accepted Qian Minghua's leaving home very quickly.
Qian Yuetao couldn't accept it. He rolled his eyes and speculated, "Does Dad have a lover outside?"
Zheng Xiaohua was stunned. She thought about it carefully and said, "No! Your father just wants to live on his own."
Qian Yuetao breathed a sigh of relief, as long as there was no other woman. He became anxious, "But he is my father. I can't live without a father!"
Zheng Xiaohua touched his head and said, "Yuetao, when you become successful, your father will come back."
Qian Yuetao wiped his tears, looked at his mother with hopeful eyes, "Will it happen?"
"Yes!" He still needs his son to support him. How lonely it is to be alone.
Qian Minghua put the package with Deng Xingming, and then found some strong laborers he was on good terms with in the production team to help build the house.
Everyone was a little confused by his decision. He only had one son, and he wanted to split the family business
Qian Minghua just shook his head and smiled bitterly. The news that Yue Tao was dating an educated youth had spread throughout the production team.
Now seeing that he is so tired and has dark circles under his eyes, everyone still feels very sympathetic towards him.
Meeting such a disobedient son is the worst misfortune in one's entire life.
The staff was found quickly.
After Qian Minghua made all the arrangements, he went to the commune with Wang Shouquan.
At the entrance of the village, the two were stopped by Wei Jianshe, "I want to sign up for conscription, too."
Qian Minghua is now quite disgusted with the educated youth, especially Wei Jianshe.
Qian Minghua had a cold face, his eyes turned into the sharpest knives and stabbed him straight in the body, "You framed others like this, you don't work seriously, and you still want to be a soldier? Don't bother yourself."
Wei Jianshe was stunned. When he came to his senses, he found that Wang Shouquan and Qian Minghua had already ridden away.
In the commune, Qian Minghua and Wang Shouquan handed in the list.
The officer in charge of recruiting took the list and looked at it carefully. "Your production team has very good conditions. Bring the people from above here tomorrow. I will interview them personally."
"Okay!" The two turned around and wanted to leave, but the door was opened at this moment.
Director Lei came in with an enamel pot, nodded to the two men, and walked directly to the officer, "Who are they?"
The officer looked up at him, then after some thought handed him the list. Director Lei glanced at it, then turned back to look at Qian Minghua and Wang Shouquan, "Why isn't Wei Jianshe on the list? You can't deprive him of his eligibility to join the army just because he's an educated youth and not from your production team?"
Qian Minghua didn't even look at him, and explained to the officer, "Comrade Wei Jianshe has been absent from work without reason since he joined our production team. After discussing it in a meeting, we all agreed that a comrade like him who is not active in work will only hinder everyone else when he joins the army, so we will not recommend him. Platoon Leader Xu, what do you think?"
Platoon Leader Xu lowered his head and thought for a moment. "You have a point. If you can't even do your job well in the production team, how can you handle the high-intensity training in the army?"
Qian Minghua saluted Platoon Leader Xu, turned and walked out of the room.
Director Lei's fingers turned blue as he held the enamel pot. He followed the two out of the room. Standing at the door, he looked at their backs with a cold look that was as chilling as a gust of wind.
