"what?"
Not only the men in the room were startled, but also Sister Han, who has always been a Buddhist, and the second sister-in-law Han rushed down to the ground with bare feet, "He's a three-dada, what's wrong, why is there no allowance? "
Doesn't it mean that there are more and more officers? This whole family can count on him to spend money!
Brother Han: Did the third brother make a mistake and was driven back by the troops
The old lady Han's cold hair stood up, and the mosquitoes that were buzzing around her lost their voices, "Second, what's going on, you can clarify!"
Han Qingsong: "My son has relapsed from an old injury and is not up to the task of the army. He needs to change his career according to regulations."
"Change jobs?" Granny Han jumped up from the kang and almost fell to the ground in front of the kang, but Han Qingsong quickly supported her.
Mrs. Han grabbed his arm tightly, "What can you do with changing careers? Have you been assigned any position, and what if you get paid in the future?"
There was a lot of talk, and there was a lot of noise in the house, suppressing Big Brother Han's question about the third brother's old injury.
Han Qingsong shook his head: "I don't know yet, I have to listen to the arrangement of the troops."
Mrs. Han opened her mouth, suddenly she didn't know what to say or what to say.
This is even more terrifying than the 260 yuan being taken away by Lin Lan.
This means that countless 260s have flown away in the future.
No, absolutely not!
"Third, is the army forcing you to change careers, or do you really want to change careers?" Mrs. Han didn't understand, she couldn't sleep in her life.
Han Qingsong didn't want to say more. After all, it was the stage of internal revolution, and the army environment was very complicated. He couldn't see it clearly, nor could he control it. It would be no good to say it.
He looked at them, "Father, mother, it's getting late, or we'll talk about it tomorrow."
With that said, there must be something else to answer a question, and I can't finish it in one night.
He greeted the eldest brother and the second brother and asked everyone to go back to the house to rest and talk tomorrow.
When he left, Brother Han complained to the old lady.
Han's second sister-in-law was angry: "The family is separated, and we should have a room to live in. The man from the third family is not at home, and he occupies the east wing."
They had no place to live in the second room and the big room, so they could only squeeze in the west room and sleep on the north and south kangs.
How not used to it!
Ordinarily, she should live in the east wing, and let the third family and the big house live in the west room.
The old lady was angry and scolded: "It's all rolling, if you want to split up the family, you will all go out together tomorrow, anyway, no one cares if your father and I die."
Knowing that she was speaking angrily, everyone dispersed.
The old lady leaned on the kang and said, "Old man, my head is bulging and bulging, just like the frozen winter melon. I'm afraid I'm going to have a stroke. Quickly, give me a piece of plaster to stick it."
In her sense, the son is the company commander and that is the cadre!
Although the Eighth Route Army and the People's Liberation Army were also stationed there during the Anti-Japanese War and the Liberation War, she had also seen many platoon commanders and company commanders, and she felt that there was no style.
Although many young people enlisted in the army in the 1950s and 1960s, and even several company commanders and battalion commanders came back to resist US aggression and aid Korea, they did not see how everyone was doing.
But now it's different!
At that time, because of wars, people would die, so many people did not want to join the army, and their daughters were not willing to marry soldiers.
Now it's popular to be a soldier!
Soldiers, like workers and government agencies, are iron rice bowls!
Xiao Si also said that if he could not get a good job after graduating from high school, he would go to the army to find his third brother.
If the third child changes jobs, what else can he do
The old lady also knew that many soldiers in the nearby village were demobilized and returned home. If the conscripts were to be demobilized for three years, that was a must, and there was nothing to talk about.
If you are demobilized, give you some money, and come back to find a job yourself, it is nothing more than taking care of the brigade commune and becoming a militiaman or the chief of security in the village.
Even small cadres have changed jobs, and there are platoon leaders. At most, they can be company commanders in a company or go to the public security bureau of the commune, the Ministry of National Defense, the militia company, etc. These old ladies have inquired about them, but they have no future.
Although the local members felt that these were jobs with long faces and money, but who is Mrs. Han, she is also the old mother of the company commander of the serious army.
She only felt a burst of dizziness in front of her. Originally she wanted Han Qingsong to make it clear, but he ran away. As a result, she couldn't breathe and almost suffocated herself.
She didn't want to suffocate herself, so she dragged the old Han to nagging.
The old man was so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes. He hummed at first, and then snored loudly in the voice of his wife's nagging.
From his point of view, he used to be able to live in the landlord's house, but now the leader of the party, Red Sun, what else is there to worry about
Han's second sister-in-law took her sister-in-law back to the south kang in the west and muttered.
Brother Han was so sleepy that he had to go to Beikang to sleep with second brother Han.
When Han Qingsong returned to the room, the lights in the room had already been turned off, and the children's breathing came from the kang.
Taking advantage of the faint light outside, he looked, Lin Lan was sleeping on the side of the kang head with Xiaowang in his arms, followed by Mai Sui, and then Erwang.
His bed was placed at the end of the kang.
According to most people in their village, the kang head is the best position, so it is the position of the male parent, then the women, and then the children.
Apparently, he was rejected.
He stood in front of the kang, and Lin Lan on the kang was sweating with nervousness.
It was always hot in summer, especially in the east wing. To sleep in order to open the doors and windows for ventilation, there were broken grass curtains and mosquitoes bit people from time to time.
Can't sleep at all!
In the end, Han Qingsong was still standing on her head, and the heat rushed to her face in bursts. She wondered, he was obviously not a teenager with too strong adolescence hormones, why the heat was still so high.
Just when she almost couldn't hold back and wanted to explain, Han Qingsong had already stepped over to the kang.
Lin Lan breathed a sigh of relief and went to sleep at ease.
The rooster crows the next day.
Lin Lan got up quickly and found that Han Qingsong was no longer on the kang. She was not in a hurry to get the children up, but when they were growing up, let them sleep for a while.
There were a lot of mosquitoes in the farmhouse. One night, she was bitten twice on her face and neck, and it was very itchy. She scratched and took down the broken grass curtain and let the light in, and found that Xiaowang was bitten the most.
She has to ask who has aloe vera, mint grass, etc., and bring it back to raise it, so that mosquitoes can bite and rub it to relieve itching.
Thanks to the medicinal wine that Han Qingsong brought back, she slept all night and her arms and shoulders did not hurt so much, otherwise she would be too swollen to lift today.
She moved her arm and felt that there was no problem, but she really wanted to excuse her arm pain and ask for a leave of absence from work.
Lin Lan felt that she was really squeamish and couldn't do physical work.
Just said that she went to work a few days ago, and at first she went to the cotton field to pick up worms, but she didn't die.
Those squirming bugs made her numb and tremble.
Later, I switched to hoeing, and took the big hoe to plan the ground and hoe the grass. It didn't take long for my back to hurt. The big hoe weighed a thousand pounds! In addition, after nine o'clock in the summer, the sun is hot, and the whole person feels like being dried out.
So, either she can find an iron job with salary, or Han Qingsong can always give her living expenses.
However, these days, the cadres in the countryside are not full-time workers, and even the old party secretary in the village has followed suit, so she will not be able to do anything in the face of absolute policies.
Then there is only Han Qingsong.
Or can she persuade him not to change careers
After all, according to the plot in the original book, the reason why Han Qingsong changed his career was because the original owner had done too much, Han Qingsong was disheartened, and the current military environment was complicated, and he had no intention of pursuing a career, and then decided to change careers and go home.
Mrs. Han was afraid that her daughter-in-law would not be able to send wages and allowances to her home after spending money with the army. The original owner was afraid that he would have a good future and divorced his wife, so she would rather not join the army and get the man back.
But I'm different, I don't make a fuss, I support Han Qingsong's work unconditionally.
Gotta get a chance to talk.
Lin Lan went to the patio and was surprised to find that old lady Han didn't get up.
When she came out of the toilet, she found that each of them had two big dark circles under their eyes, just like being tortured by not sleeping for ten days and a half months, tsk tsk, it was really pitiful.
Han's second sister-in-law has a small hole on her head, and it's no problem if it has been bandaged, but she wrapped it into a mummy with a large hand towel, and she was not afraid of the heat, so she hummed, "Oh, it hurts to death, and I can't go to work."
"Mother, why did you come out?" Erwang didn't know when he woke up, so he ran out to support Lin Lan, "Mother, you can't move your arms, so just take a rest and don't go to work. My father is back!"
Dad didn't listen to Grandma's divorce, which made Erwang very proud, and he wanted to show off his father when he saw a needle.
Those who joke that their father is going to divorce their mother, and those who don't want them, hmph, take a good look at them!
Han Er's sister-in-law pouted and went back to the house to lie down in anger.
Sister Han prepares to cook and calls the children to mow the grass to earn work points.
Children as old as Erwang, Maisui, and Sanwang all have to cut grass to earn work points.
Mai Sui was coquettish and didn't want to go, and wanted Lin Lan to speak for her, but Lin Lan pretended not to know.
Mowing the lawn is easy work.
Mai Sui had to go with the sisters.
At this time, Han Qingsong came back with water, and saw Lin Lan sitting on a stone staring at the broken tile basin in a daze, he poured the water into the water tank, came out and said to Lin Lan, "There are two empty grass huts in the field. Go take a look today, if you don't dislike it..."
Lin Lan immediately said, "Don't dislike it!"
Joke, no matter how broken the house is, it is better than living here.
Han Qingsong didn't expect that she would not look at it or pick it, so he readily agreed, and he had to spend a little bit of thinking about it.
Seeing her agreement, he nodded and handed the glasses to Lin Lan.
"The frame is flat, just keep it round, it's not broken."
He went out again after picking up the water.
Seeing this, Sister-in-law Han sighed, and said to Lin Lan in a tone of envy that she didn't even realize: "Da Wang Niang, don't keep your anger out. Actually, you see, the third brother is still very painful. After looking for the house, he asked What do you mean, the glasses were also repaired by him."
Knowing that they are not happy, they take the initiative to say that they are separated, and they also take the initiative to find a house.
Put other men aside, they decide what to do, and they seldom speak or discuss with women.
Even a large number of men don't even talk to women at night to give birth to children, except to discuss work and say a few words.
In their opinion, not gossiping with their women is masculine!
Lin Lan smiled and said nothing.
After washing her face, she went back to the room, woke Xiaowang up, and put on glasses for him.
"Wow, my glasses!" Xiaowang was very happy.
Lin Lan wiped Xiao Wang's face with a towel, "Your father gave it to Xiu, remember to thank him."
Xiaowang pouted and didn't answer.
Lin Lan didn't force him, and whispered: "Your father has found a house, we can move out, go and have a look."
She put the two pieces of candy on Xiaowang and took him to see the house.
Although Xiaowang didn't like Han Qingsong yet, he was very excited when he heard that he could move.
Those two rooms belonged to the main unit. Later, the brigade headquarters was expanded with a new compound, and these two rooms were used to store sundries.
Although it is a little dilapidated, the walls and beams are still in good condition. The grass on the roof is re-paved and the yellow mud is put on it.
The other is the doors and windows, which should be replaced, and those that should be repaired, and then the kang can be set up.
Han Qingsong was busy with a few people. Not only Erwang was helping, but Dawang and Sanwang were also there, as well as a few boys from the family.
Naturally, there are also people watching the excitement secretly pointing.
"Look, this third Han broke up as soon as he came back. Which one is this?"
"Did you get caught by the shrew looking for life and death?"
"Why don't you say that you were kicked out by the old lady?"
Generally, when people split up, they basically build a house on the basis of the original homestead. If they can’t build a house, they build a shack, or even go to the neighbor’s home to stay overnight. Few people move out so far.
The old party secretary Han Yongfang heard the scolding and said: "Hu Lielie, what is it, you have a long tongue? There are four sons in a family, so there are three main rooms and a small east wing. The eldest and the second live in one room, and the fourth also You have to get married, no matter where you live?"
When Han Yongfang said this, he immediately blocked the mouths of many people, especially those in similar situations.
However, some people were jealous of Han Qingsong's face, and asked the old party secretary to let him live in the two empty rooms.
Several families in the village have said that they want to borrow those two rooms, but the old party secretary said that there are so many people, who will they live for
The result is that no one can get it.
Now it is generous to let Han Qingsong live.
"Don't be a gift."
"Who knows, everyone is an official, so naturally they will."
"Didn't you say that the third child of Han came back for a divorce, didn't you want that bitch? Why did you split up the family? What's going on with their family?"
"I still know what's going on, it's not their old lady."
"Hey, speaking of the old lady, why don't you see anyone?"
"To be honest, Han Qingsong is really a good young man, hey, if it weren't for that, Chunxiang should have married him."
"Fuck you, what nonsense."
…
Han Qingsong moved quickly, preparing the materials for the two rooms in half a day, and borrowing ready-made adobe from the team to set up the kang.
Fortunately, there are adobes in the team, and the pan kang is directly borrowed.
Two rooms, leave half as the main room, and the other half as bedrooms, with a long kang, and a rectangular box-shaped kang hole in the middle to store sweet potatoes, sleeping on both sides, separate men and women, lest the children become too old. convenient.
Nowadays, many people do not have separate kangs for men and women. The whole family sleeps on a kang, and the children also crowd together when they grow up.
Not to mention some married people who are still in the same room.
Therefore, Han Qingsong's design is enough to envy the members.
Lin Lan watched for a while, went back and ate a few bites of breakfast before going to work. Because of the arm pain, she didn't pick up the big hoe, and went to the cotton field to pick up the fork and the bugs.
There were still people spraying medicine over there, and the smell of 1605 drifted ten miles downwind, and the smell of Lin Lan made my heart skip a beat. After finally making it to noon, Lin Lan was dizzy and hurriedly escaped from the worm's nest.
When she came back, she went to see the main force first, and saw that Han Qingsong was squatting on the roof and throwing yellow mud.
He was wearing a racer vest, revealing his strong and muscular arms, and the sweat glistened in the sun as if smeared with oil.
He glanced at Lin Lan, put his hand on the roof, slipped out and slid down, and then jumped down nimbly.
Lin Lan was so startled by him that her heart was in her throat. You jumped up and down like this, it looks like an old injury has recurred
Han Qingsong came to her in three or two steps, "I'll bring some food at noon, and I won't go back to eat it."
Lin Lan pondered that once she went back, the old lady kept asking questions, delaying her work.
"Row."
Han Qingsong glanced at her, "Is your arm okay?"
Lin Lan rubbed, "It still hurts."
"Why don't you ask for leave when it hurts?" Han Qingsong also thought that according to her habit, she would definitely ask for leave and not work if she was injured, but she didn't expect to ask, so she asked.
Lin Lan: "What do you eat if you don't go to work? You have to earn work points."
"You don't need to earn work points in the future." Han Qingsong said and went back to work.
Does he care about himself
Lin Lan pondered these words, would she not have to do physical work by herself from now on
It seems that Han Qingsong's nature has not changed. He is still as in the book. He is a person with responsibilities and responsibilities. Since he decides to come back, he will take up the responsibility of being a husband and father.
It's just that I was too blind before, and I didn't know the contradictions at home when I was not at home. It was actually caused by my mother and wife.
Seems to be a low EQ.
Lin Lan first looked at the children, who were here to help after mowing the grass. Xiaowang followed Maisui, wearing a wicker straw hat, holding a few willow leaves in his hand and blowing his cheeks constantly, insisting on blowing a whistle.
Mai Sui said to Lin Lan, "Mother, Xiao Wang runs like San Wang with glasses, and he will disappear in a while."
"Why did he run away by himself?"
"Who knows, just stay blind, go to the grass if you don't want to go to the water's edge, and I'm still lying in a slope rabbit's nest today and want to dig in, unless there is movement inside."
"There must be movement," Lin Lan said.
Mai Sui: ... Mothers are partial to the younger son, that's right!
Lin Lan asked her and Erwang to go back and serve food for them to eat here with their father.
At noon, the old lady Han hadn't gotten off the kang, but she was only sitting on the eastern kang, "I'm not going to take a look when I die."
She was sure that the third son was filial, and as long as he lay here, he would definitely come to apologize and admit his fault, and he would be obedient in the future.
It used to be like this!
The family members were silent and silent.
Sister-in-law Han gave Lin Lan a wink, and Lin Lan nodded.
She took a pancake, set aside a bowl of vegetables, and picked up a chopstick of pickles, trying to hide in the house to eat.
Just as she was about to leave, the old lady Han called out in the room, "From the third family, from the third family—"
