Chapter 204 Leaving
At the moment when he got the document, Wu Wei couldn't help but burst into tears.
When he was just released, he was still young and full of ambition, but the past ten years have smoothed the sharpness of his body little by little, and he has become the vicissitudes and mellow middle-aged man he is today.
With white hair, rough skin, and hands covered with calluses, except for the pair of glasses on his face that were broken many times and had to be wrapped with tape, he could no longer see the demeanor of that professor back then. .
Seeing his appearance, Gu Jianguo felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
Because of his eldest nephew, Gu Jianguo had dealt with Wu Wei a lot, and he also admired these educated people from the bottom of his heart.
"Old Wu, this is a good thing, you should be happy."
Wu Wei wiped the corners of his eyes, and said with a smile, "I was just too happy for a while, captain, I really didn't expect such a day to come."
Gu Jianguo patted him with a smile, and comforted him: "I'll give you a certificate later, with the certificate and this document, you can leave whenever you want."
Wu Wei knew that this document was rare, and it was also rare for the local production team to release people unconditionally. Most of them were afraid that they would go back for revenge and tried to stop them.
Feeling more and more grateful from the bottom of my heart, Wu Wei smiled and said, "Thank you, Captain."
"Go back quickly and tell your wife and daughter the good news. They must be waiting." Gu Jianguo put the document in Wu Wei's hands.
Wu Wei hugged the file bag tightly, and Sa Yazi ran towards the old house.
He ran faster and faster, and his body, which had been heavy due to years of fatigue, suddenly became lighter at this moment.
Zhou Zijin was sitting at the door washing clothes, when he saw him running in out of breath, he hurriedly asked, "What's the matter? What happened?"
"Zijin, we can go back, we can finally go home." Wu Wei shouted repeatedly.
When Zhou Zijin heard it, he almost doubted his ears: "Is it true? Who said it? Is this a matter?"
Wu Wei handed the document to her: "Look at it yourself, the stamped document cannot be faked."
"Dad, can we really go home?" Wu Xuanxuan also shouted in surprise.
The three hugged each other, crying and laughing, Zhou Zijin caressed the thin document, and couldn't believe it for a moment: "Old Wu, pinch me quickly and tell me it's true."
Wu Wei was reluctant to pinch her, instead he hugged her around and said, "It's true, I promise it's true."
Zhou Zijin laughed out loud, dazed by the good news.
Zheng Tong watched the family cry, cry and laugh, and couldn't help showing a gratified smile.
After the family of three had had enough laughs and troubles, they remembered that there was someone beside them. Zhou Zijin trimmed his hair in embarrassment: "Old Zheng, I made you laugh."
"Good things are not afraid of laughing." Zheng Tong said with a smile.
Wu Wei also calmed down a bit, and he hurriedly said, "Old Zheng, when we go back, we will definitely find a way to help you rehabilitate."
Zheng Tong is not in a hurry to go back now, and said with a smile: "Life and death are determined by fate, wealth and honor are in the sky, and everything can't be forced, and there is nothing wrong with Shanghe Village."
After years of getting along, Wu Wei knew that Zheng Tong's words came from the heart, not a forced smile, but he still promised repeatedly that he would help clear up the relationship after they returned.
Until this night, the Wu family still couldn't calm down, and they were suddenly happy, asking them to get up and look through the documents again and again, for fear that this was just a dream.
Suddenly, Zhou Zijin turned around: "Old Wu, Xuanxuan took the college entrance examination, if we go back, what if the college entrance examination notice is sent to the wrong place, it will definitely delay time."
"Mom and Dad, you can go back first, I will stay here and wait." Wu Xuanxuan said, "Wait until the beginning of September, if I am admitted, I will go to school, if not, I will go to you."
But how could Wu Wei and his wife be willing to leave her alone.
"No, no matter what, the three of us must be together." Zhou Zijin immediately objected.
Wu Wei also disagreed: "If you want to stay, let's stay together."
Without waiting for Wu Xuanxuan's objection, he explained: "We're going to double grab soon. We've been in the production team for so many years, why don't we just finish this last post and walk steadily."
Wu Xuanxuan knew from the bottom of her heart that double robbing was the most tiring time. Her father said so, but in the final analysis, she was still worried about her staying alone.
"Dad, there's Grandpa Zheng here, I'll be fine."
Zhou Zijin stroked her daughter's hair. After the last time, Wu Xuanxuan cut her hair short, and now it doesn't reach her shoulders, making her look like a tomboy.
"Silly boy, I'm afraid we won't come back after we leave. We all want to start well and end well."
Wu Wei also said: "I used to think that farming was too hard, but now that I know I can leave, I feel reluctant from the bottom of my heart."
"Yes, Shanghe Village is remote, but the ones dug from the mountains and fished in the water here are the freshest. I didn't know there were so many wild vegetables to eat, and they tasted so good."
The two of you talked to each other, adding a lot of embroidery to the days of these years.
The couple agreed to wait two months at most until the results of their daughter's college entrance examination came out before leaving.
The next day, Wu Wei found Gu Jianguo and told him about his decision.
Gu Jianguo, of course, did not object, and said, "You are also making a contribution to the production team. When the food is harvested, you can first exchange the saved work points for money and tickets to take away."
He privately felt that even if he was rehabilitated, the three members of the Wu family would still have to eat and drink when they returned home.
As soon as Wu Wei heard it, he knew that it was for his own sake, so he thanked him repeatedly.
The fact that the Wu family was rehabilitated and that he would be able to return to Beijing immediately could not be concealed, and soon the entire production team knew about it.
For a while, everyone was talking about it. Those who have a good relationship with the Wu family are naturally happy for them in their hearts, and those who have bullied the Wu family can't help but mutter at this time.
It's like Wang Mazi, who always likes to underestimate the low and praise the high, and he used to make sarcastic remarks to them.
Hearing that the Wu family had been rehabilitated now, Wang Mazi felt very bad in his heart, and complained when he returned home: "I don't know what the superiors are thinking. The five black classes can still be rehabilitated. It's really evil."
Widow Liu also said: "Isn't it? The capitalists can still be rehabilitated. This is not a mess."
Liu Xiaozhu also participated in this year's college entrance examination. Because of his sister, he has a good relationship with Wu Xuanxuan.
At this moment, I couldn't help but defend them: "Their family is not considered a capitalist, but Mr. Wu has studied abroad."
"Tsk tsk, returning from studying abroad doesn't count, so what counts?" Widow Liu said immediately.
Wang Mazi suddenly asked: "I heard that there are subsidies for redress, and they can all be rehabilitated, so can I be rehabilitated?"
These words stunned both Widow Liu, mother and son.
Wang Mazi continued: "Back then, Mr. Liu avenged his personal revenge. He just threw me on the farm and rehabilitated me for more than three years. I almost died of exhaustion. So should I be compensated now?"
Liu Xiaozhu had to remind him: "Dad, you were caught by thieves back then."
Wang Mazi subconsciously glanced at Widow Liu, who lowered her head and remained silent.
Unhappy in his heart, Wang Mazi snorted twice, and said with a sneer, "I didn't do it alone."
"What are you talking about now?" Widow Liu said in a low voice.
Wang Mazi gave her a hard look, then turned to look at his son, "Xiao Zhu, are you sure about the college entrance examination?"
In fact, Liu Xiaozhu didn't know what to do. After all, no one would know if the grades hadn't come out. Moreover, the number of people taking the college entrance examination this year continued unabated, and everyone knew how to review.
But thinking of his sister's earnest blessings, saving money outside and helping him send materials back, Liu Xiaozhu still nodded: "It should be possible."
Upon hearing this, Wang Mazi laughed: "I knew my son would be good, and he will be a college student in the future."
"I won't make a fuss right now. We'll talk about it after you go to college," Wang Mazi said.
He is also somewhat sensible, knowing that he has little chance of being rehabilitated. After all, so many eyes of the production team saw it back then. Moreover, Liu Dazhu was dead, and he had no witnesses.
There is another one, what if there is a stalemate with the captain, and Gu Jianguo deliberately gets stuck with his son and refuses to transfer the relationship without issuing a certificate.
Wang Mazi felt that for the sake of his son, he had to endure this.
Wang Mazi, who thought he had paid too much, started to clean up Widow Liu when he returned to the house that day. , I shouldn't have listened to you."
Outsiders don't know what happened to the Liu family, but Widow Liu didn't leave the house for several days, and she covered her face when she went out to wash clothes, which made the production team laugh at her.
The double grab came earlier than the admission letter, but Gu Mingdong felt that the double grab this year was easier than any previous year.
The fields allocated to their family were not too many, this time it wasn't just him, the twins and Gu Mingnan all came back to help, and several young and middle-aged men went to work together, and the women in the family didn't have to intervene.
When the summer vacation started, Gu Mingxi and Gu Mingbei went home together.
In just half a year, the two sisters lived and ate at school, and they didn't need to be exposed to the wind and sun all day, and they looked much more radiant.
As soon as the two sisters got home, they rolled up their sleeves to clean up inside and out. If Gu Mingdong didn't stop them, they would have to go directly to the ground with the sickle on their shoulders.
Gu Mingdong said helplessly: "It's just a few acres of land, and we will finish it soon. If you two are free, cook more delicious food. I'm hungry if I haven't eaten my sister's food for half a year."
When Gu Mingxi heard this, he smiled: "That's not easy, I'm sure that my eldest brother will get bored of it in the past two months."
This is what persuaded them to stay at home.
Soon, Gu Mingxi discovered that the two of them couldn't be idle at home. Last year, the production team saw that there were many people who were admitted to university, but this year, only the two of them came back from the summer vacation.
Liu Aihua didn't come back, and said she wanted to stay in the city to work and earn money so that she could send it back to her family. Both Wang Mazi and Widow Liu supported it.
After all, how much is it worth to go home and help, she can earn a lot outside, as for how difficult it is for a little girl who has not yet graduated, how she earns money, whether she will be looked down upon by others, they don't care.
Liu Xiaozhu wanted to go and have a look, but he was relieved when he received a letter from his sister before leaving.
Sister Gu Fang and Gu Wei came back, but they left after staying for a few days. They really couldn't stay under the same roof with Wang Feng, and they would quarrel if they stayed for a long time.
The two of them couldn't even listen to Wang Feng telling them not to be nice to the third sister and to save more money for the younger brother who had no shadow.
After discussing with each other, the two sisters simply went back to school and planned to take advantage of the summer vacation to earn some subsidies.
The educated youth who have been admitted to university will definitely not come back, so the only real college students in Shanghe Village are the Gu family sisters and Qian Xiaoru.
Those who watch the excitement, those who want to go to college, and those who want to know what's going on in the city, come to chat with them every two days.
This is the latest double grab, and everyone is so busy that they can't get away, otherwise the old Gu's family will become a bathhouse, and everyone will come to take a dip.
They are all from the folks in the village, and if they speak well, you can't drive them away, which is really annoying.
Gu Mingbei has a good temper and can bear it, but Gu Mingxi only felt that his face was stiff and he couldn't even smile.
But there were still some people who relied on being the elders and said with a smile: "Why is Xiaoxi showing such a face? Do you feel that my aunt is talking too much?"
Gu Mingxi showed eight teeth: "Auntie, you can talk as long as you talk, don't delay my work, everyone is busy, I can't finish it, so why don't you wait for big brother to go home and cook?"
"Yo, Xiaoxi, you're getting more and more slick, is that what the school taught you?" She was still not happy.
Just as Gu Mingxi was about to have a seizure, Gu Mingbei tugged at his sister's sleeves, and said with a smile, "Auntie, why don't you go home and cook? My uncle and the others will have to call it a day. If you go home, you won't be able to eat a hot meal." Why don't they get angry?"
That's what sends people away.
Gu Mingxi said angrily: "Who are these people, just stay here and won't leave."
"It means you have a good temper, you should scold me if you want me to say it."
In fact, it was just asking how Beijing is, or the college entrance examination. Gu Mingxi was happy to talk about it. Whose child in the production team would like to study, she also generously lent the review materials.
But some people don't know what their intentions are, and they say that their sisters are getting older after finishing school, and the men outside are unreliable, and they sell their sons and nephews who can't find a partner by the way.
If you refuse politely, pretend you don’t understand; if you refuse explicitly, pretend you don’t understand.
After listening too much, Gu Mingxi got a headache when he saw them.
Gu Mingbei said with a smile: "Let's scold to the fullest, when the time comes, people will say that elder brother can't teach children."
Gu Mingxi snorted and said, "Brother doesn't care."
"Brother doesn't care, but he didn't do anything, so don't make noise if you can." Gu Mingbei insisted.
Gu Mingxi sighed: "They just saw that the eldest brother was not at home, and waited for the eldest brother to come back and stop there, and all of them quickly slipped away."
Hearing this, Gu Mingbei couldn't help laughing.
Who made their elder brother's face the most bluffing, especially when he was silent and straight-faced, few women in the production team could stop that posture.
"Okay, third aunt, I heard, you are comparing my father to Zhong Kui." Gu Liangxing suddenly raised his head and shouted.
Gu Mingxi glanced at him, and jokingly said, "I didn't say that, but you are calling the elders ghosts."
The aunt and nephew immediately bickered.
Gu Mingbei looked out, but didn't see anyone else: "What about the eldest brother and the second brother, why didn't they come back together?"
"Dad said to go to the river and take a shower before coming back, otherwise I will feel uncomfortable with thorns on my body." Gu Liangxing explained.
"Then why are you back?" Gu Mingxi looked at him suspiciously.
Gu Liangxing rolled his eyes, walked over and hugged Sangu's arm to act coquettishly, and forced out a clip: "Sangu..."
"Let's go, let's go, don't be gross, I get goosebumps seeing you like this." Gu Mingxi immediately said with disgust.
Gu Liangxing was unfavorable, and quickly said: "Why are you so unfeeling, when you were young, you liked my acting like a baby."
"How old were you then, how old are you now, you are a head taller than me, you are a tiger peeing."
Gu Mingxi couldn't stand it, if it was the cute little Yun'er, it would be fine, not to mention that his nephew is tall, tanned, with a fleshy body, can he be seen acting like a baby?
She doesn't like the second sister-in-law, but likes to see a big man like the second brother acting like a baby.
Gu Liangxing had no choice but to set his sights on another aunt: "Fourth Aunt, just look at my third aunt and you will know that you despise me."
Gu Mingbei showed a smile: "Ah Xing, do you want pocket money?"
"Si Gu has some here, take it." He said and handed him five yuan.
Gu Liangxing quickly refused: "How can I ask for your money, let my dad know and not scold me."
The two aunts are studying abroad, although there are subsidies, but the big city costs a lot, Gu Mingdong is afraid that the two younger sisters will save money, so every time he writes, he asks them not to treat him badly, and the twins are strictly prohibited from taking pocket money from them .
In the face of his sister's insistence, Gu Mingdong only said: "When you work and earn money in the future, you can give them pocket money. I don't care, but I can't do it now."
The Gu family sisters don't think that's the case in their hearts. The two of them have always been saving, and they don't need to subsidize the family. Let alone having savings before, even if they don't have it, the university subsidy can't be used up.
Gu Mingbei smiled and said: "Take it, there will be popsicle sellers at the entrance of the village later, you can buy a few more."
"Third Aunt and Fourth Aunt, am I the one who acts like a baby just for a popsicle?" Gu Liangxing cried out.
Gu Mingxi smiled and said, "You really are."
"You forgot, when you were a child, you said that you wanted to be your second uncle's son just because of a bite of eggs. After all these years, you don't know how many people you want to be your son."
"Ah Chen is better than you at this point, you can't buy him off with delicious food."
Gu Liangxing really couldn't remember that he had said such a thing, and hurriedly said: "You are slandering, I never said it."
"Then you can ask your dad later." Gu Mingxi said with a smile.
Gu Liangxing was unsure all of a sudden, he hesitated, and asked again: "Third Aunt, I just want to ask about my mother."
This made Gu Mingxi stunned for a moment, glanced at him and said: "You just asked this after a long time of trouble, what's wrong with asking directly, can I not tell you?"
"Really?"
Gu Mingxi simply put down the work at hand: "Ah Xing, I heard from my second brother that you have been to my sister-in-law's family, did you say something there?"
"Not without."
Gu Liangxing scratched his hair and didn't know how to speak for a moment.
"Then why are you hesitating?" Gu Mingxi asked suspiciously.
Gu Liangxing gritted his teeth and said, "Third Aunt, Fourth Aunt, did anything strange happen before Mom gave birth to us?"
Gu Mingxi was even more strange in his heart, looked at him and said, "What's so strange?"
"That's right, it's an unusual thing."
"Does it count that you two are twins?" Gu Mingxi said, "You two are still the first pair of twins in Shanghe Village. When my sister-in-law was pregnant, she was in poor conditions and couldn't eat well. When she was about to give birth, she didn't gain much weight, but she had a big belly. very."
"Looking at her big belly at that time, we were all scared in our hearts. My elder brother advised her to give birth in the hospital, but my sister-in-law was not happy, saying that she could do it herself. In the end..."
As a result, the child was born smoothly, but Li Lijuan's body fell to the root of the disease, and then she couldn't bear it and passed away early.
Gu Mingxi was afraid that the child would blame himself, so he changed the matter and continued: "You two were not big when you were born, like little mice. At that time, we were worried that we would not be able to support ourselves. Who would have thought that you have grown into young men now? .”
"If sister-in-law is still alive, she will be very happy to see you both healthy and healthy."
Gu Liangxing listened, feeling a bit disappointed in his heart, thinking how great it would be if his mother was still alive, but it's a pity that the world is unpredictable.
Seeing his disappointed face, Gu Mingxi joked with a smile: "Don't you guys know these things since you were young? Why are you asking them all of a sudden?"
Gu Liangxing smiled awkwardly, and only said, "I just remembered it all of a sudden."
Gu Mingxi didn't delve into it, and said: "We have no objection to your relationship with the Li family, as long as you don't forget who is the closest."
"I can't forget, no one can compare to my dad." Gu Liangxing said immediately.
"Three aunts and four aunts, then I'll go buy popsicles." Seeing that he couldn't find anything to ask, Gu Liangxing immediately ran away.
"This kid just said he wouldn't eat, but now he ran away in a hurry." Gu Mingxi shook his head helplessly.
At the end, she noticed that from the very beginning, her sister kept her head down and said nothing.
"Xiaobei, what's wrong with you?"
Gu Mingbei trembled, subconsciously said: "I, I'm just tired."
"Are you tired?" It's okay if she didn't explain, but Gu Mingxi felt even more strange when she explained.
Gu Mingbei smiled, and just said: "I have a good relationship with my sister-in-law, and suddenly I heard A Xing mention it, and I felt a little sad."
Gu Mingxi looked at his sister helplessly: "It's been so many years and you're still sad."
"Let me tell you, if my sister-in-law knew about it, that A Xing and A Chen were raised so well by her elder brother, she might be very happy."
Gu Mingbei lowered his head, and said quietly: "Yes, if you are worried, sister-in-law will not give the child to brother and us."
After a long time, Gu Mingbei suddenly asked: "Sister, why do you think Ah Xing suddenly asked about sister-in-law?"
Gu Mingxi said indifferently: "The child has grown up and is interested in mother's affairs. Don't we like to think wildly when we are so young."
"At that time, I always thought that there was some earth-shattering story about our parents, and it would be fine after this effort."
Gu Mingbei smiled and said nothing more.
Gu Liangxing ran to the entrance of the village in one breath, but he didn't see the quilt box selling popsicles, but he saw Gu Liangchen.
As soon as Gu Liangchen saw him, he asked, "Why did you run away just now, and what did you do?"
Gu Liangxing touched his nose subconsciously.
"Have you gone to ask the third aunt and the fourth aunt about our mother?" Gu Liangchen couldn't help frowning.
Gu Liangxing looked away guiltily.
Gu Liangchen frowned: "Didn't we agree, let's forget about it, and never mention it again."
"I'm just curious, what's the matter?" Gu Liangxing poked his neck and said, "Third Aunt and Fourth Aunt also said, we just ask what we want to know, it's because the whole family has something to ask."
Gu Liangchen just stared at him without speaking.
The latter had no choice but to say: "I didn't ask anything, okay, okay, can't I stop asking?"
"Really, you are the only one who is smart, thinking about it all day long, which makes my heart go up and down."
"It's best if you can remember."
Gu Liangchen looked at him and said, "Brother, I think it's very good now, it's fine if it continues like this, there is no need for any changes."
The extraordinary sensitivity from childhood to adulthood made Gu Liangchen subconsciously feel that something was wrong, and it also made him regret in his heart. If he had known this, he shouldn't have gone to find his mother's family.
