Chapter 234 New Year’s Gifts
"Mom, my sister is very good. She is a regular worker in the chicken farm, which is better than the second child's job.
I heard from the director of their chicken farm that my sister seemed to have made a huge contribution to the chicken farm and was recently rewarded.
It's good that my sister is there, don't worry. I think she looks much better than when I first saw her. Not only is she much whiter, but she is also very beautiful.
At a quick glance, 50% of her looks like her mother, and 50% of her looks like her father. "
Gu Zixi talked about the current situation of Xia Zhi, and these words made Gu's mother's eyes immediately warm up.
"Oh, the last time I saw her, she was thin and small, and she didn't talk much. She always kept her head down. She just feels better now.
This child must have suffered a lot in the past few years outside. You are the elder brother. When you have time, you should go see your sister and take care of your sister. Do you hear me? "
Mother Gu was talking to herself there, obviously thinking of her little daughter.
Gu's mother still couldn't help but her face was filled with brilliant light.
Gu Zixi had no choice but to follow her mother's topic and said a lot of good things about Xia Zhi.
Gu's mother's body was too weak, and after talking for a while, she gasped from exhaustion.
And coughing from time to time.
It's that breathless cough.
Gu Zixi held back tears.
Watching my mother sleep.
Sitting there motionless.
What should I do if my mother's body is like this, but I can't do anything about it.
Father Gu winked at him, and the two of them opened the door and quietly climbed to the mountainside behind.
"Tell me, what's going on? You just lied to your mother with those words."
Gu Zixi told the whole story of how he was rescued by Xia Zhi, the tense situation between Xia Zhi and Gu Zhaolin, and what Xia Zhi said to himself.
After hearing this, Father Gu sat there with deep eyes and said nothing.
"Dad, is there any misunderstanding here?
I feel like Xiaoxia has changed a lot towards us compared to the last time we met.
And obviously I felt that she had deep resentment towards me and Zhaolin.
That resentment is not fake. "
"And what she said to me that day made me think that there are some things that we don't know at all. Is there any error in the information Xiaohan conveyed to us?"
Father Gu shook his head helplessly. Even if there was a misunderstanding, we don't know why.
"Xiaohan hasn't written to us recently, even if we sent her a letter, she didn't write to us.
The last letter was written, saying that Xia Zhi caused her to lose her job, and that she had married Ding Jiannan, and asked us to take good care of ourselves and take care of ourselves in the future.
She had no chance to help the family. "
"I also think there is something going on here. We all knew about Ding Jiannan and Xiao Xia's engagement at the time.
How could he suddenly become Xiaohan? Moreover, the Ding family had promised us good things at first, but now they suddenly changed their minds. I don’t know what happened here.
And Xiaoxia actually came here now, so you can imagine what happened to him there. It's just that we don't know. "
Father Gu thinks more.
"She is your sister anyway. Although she hates us, as a brother, you have to take care of your sister. We may not be able to help with anything else.
You also know the situation of your mother and me. We have no freedom at all.
You visit your sister from time to time. If she needs help, try your best to help her. "
Gu Zixi nodded,
"Dad, I know, but I may not be able to help.
In fact, I'm not doing as well as my sister now. My farm is just like that. My sister's life should be better than mine.
I will go over and take a look from time to time, but there is a high possibility that I will keep a distance from my sister. Keeping a distance from him now is actually the greatest benefit to her. "
Both father and son remained silent. With their current status, it was true that they could not do anything well and could easily injure others.
Before dawn, Gu Zixi started on his way back.
It’s the New Year, and after entering the twelfth lunar month, all the chickens in the chicken farm are slaughtered and sent to provide supplies for the New Year.
The chicks in their chicken farm have not yet grown up, so the work on the chicken farm is at its easiest.
The factory director excitedly summoned everyone to the office. Looking at the supplies piled against the wall, everyone's faces showed joy. It was time to distribute New Year's goods.
Xia Zhi couldn't help but smile.
No way, people still feel happy during the New Year, and they can also have a holiday during the New Year.
Although the factory rotates shifts, basically one day's work is followed by five days' rest.
"We have called everyone together today. In fact, everyone knows very well that New Year's goods are being distributed. We are preparing to celebrate the New Year. It is now the 26th of the twelfth lunar month.
Today's New Year's goods are distributed. From today on, our chicken farm will officially enter the state of New Year's holiday, with a total of 14 people.
The duty schedule has been listed, and two people usually need to be on duty twice a day.
Everyone takes turns on duty according to the duty schedule.
This duty schedule will be dispatched until the sixteenth day of the first lunar month. "
"Okay, I won't say any more nonsense. If there is any need for a day off, let's discuss it among ourselves. The only thing left is to distribute New Year's goods and everyone can go back to celebrate the New Year."
Everyone cheered immediately. Not to mention what Xia Zhi was holding in his arms, they were treated well at the moment.
A pack of candies, a pack of melon seeds, a pack of peanuts, a pound of pork, a chicken, and half a pork knuckle.
Five pounds of white flour, 20 pounds of cornmeal, and half a pound of rapeseed oil.
This thing is the best New Year’s gift for anyone.
Xia Zhi carried her things back to the dormitory. She will be on the first shift tomorrow and can rest after her shift tomorrow.
Li Xuemei came to her house instead holding her things.
"Xiao Xia wants to discuss with you how about we switch classes?"
Xia Zhi smiled,
"Okay, Sister Li, do you need to say this?
I'm not going home, and I don't have anywhere to go anyway. If I work two shifts for you, it won't be a problem. "
Li Xuemei and the others are locals, so they must go home to celebrate the New Year.
Especially since the locals on the duty schedule are on the first day of the Lunar New Year, the second day of the new year is naturally a bit inconvenient.
No matter what happens on the first and second day of the Lunar New Year, we have to visit relatives.
"Okay, Xiaoxia, let's make an agreement. It happens to be my shift on the first day of the new year, and you will take over my shift for the whole day."
When Li Xuemei heard this, she smiled and thanked her.
The main reason is that many people don’t want to go to work on the first day of the Lunar New Year because they don’t have any relatives.
"I understand, Sister Xuemei, please come back quickly."
Xia Zhi put the things away and thought about it for a while.
In fact, these things are enough for one person to celebrate the New Year, but some things cannot be put away.
For example, this pork elbow and pork must be stewed in advance, otherwise I'm afraid it won't last for a few days.
Fortunately, I have a day shift tomorrow, so I have time the day after tomorrow. At worst, I can fry the pork into meatballs myself.
As a result, Gao Yanbin, who was next to him, also walked in excitedly and placed a bunch of New Year's goods in his arms on the Xia Zhi table.
"What are you doing?"
"Won't you send it home?"
Gao Yanbin shook his head,
"What are you sending? My home is thousands of miles away. Where can I send it? I just want to ask you a favor."
