Chapter 1: crossed
Chapter 1 crossed
In the courtyard of the No. 1 factory of Jingcheng Coal Mine, there are very few people walking around in the tube building during the day.
The innermost house on the second floor is now full of noise. People passing by downstairs looked up from time to time, pricking up their ears to listen to the content of the quarrel.
"I won't go! Let Shen Man go! Why let me go." At this time, a little girl in her eighteenth or nineteenth year was angry and flushed with excitement, wishing to stand on the table and talk.
A couple in their forties next to them looked helpless and angry.
Shen’s mother, Zhang Mei, knew that getting angry was useless, so she persuaded her daughter earnestly, “Shen Man just graduated, and you are the elder sister. You were the one who came to talk to the Educated Youth Office.”
It was time for the educated youth to go to the countryside, and the Educated Youth Office had already consulted with their family several times.
Originally, the name of the second son of the Shen family, Shen Yu, was on the list. The eldest, Shen Peng, was married and had a job, so there was no need to go to the countryside.
At present, there are only two sisters, Shen Yu and Shen Man, both graduated from high school and have no jobs.
Shen Yu has been at home since graduation last year, and then the Educated Youth Office came to communicate.
Until Shen Man graduated this year, this person has not yet gone to the countryside.
Hearing Shen's mother's words, Shen Yu became even more angry, "Why me? Didn't Shen Man also graduate this year? Mom! Even if you are biased, you must have a degree!"
"What are you talking about!" Father Shen, Shen Zhengxin slammed the table.
No one in the whole room spoke, no matter how dissatisfied Shen Yu was, she would not dare to offend the angry father Shen.
Because Shen Zhengxin was angry, no matter who it was, he would beat him.
"Who have you and I favored over the years?" Shen Zhengxin looked at the second child and continued, "Your sister also has new clothes when you buy them. New Year's money and pocket money are the same."
"Even Shen Man you want will be given to you, I am partial? You don't want to think about it and just say it?"
Hearing this, Shen Yu couldn't say a word. Yes, both sisters are the same, but she doesn't want to go to the countryside!
A former classmate wrote to her and told her that it was very tiring over there, and they were farming all day and mixing with farmers.
Thinking of these, she felt hopeless.
So, going to the countryside is absolutely impossible!
Seeing that she was silent, the Shen family also understood what she was thinking.
But it is just to not be partial, so it depends on who the Educated Youth Office sends to the countryside, and decides who to go.
Now that Shen Yu is doing this, isn't it just playing tricks?
Just as the atmosphere in the room dropped to freezing point, the door that had been closed was opened.
A young girl around eighteen came out of the room. Her face was pale but solemn.
"Dad, Mom, I'm going to the countryside." Her tone was firm, with a hint of other emotions.
Hearing this, Shen Zhengxin pursed his lips, unable to utter a word.
But Shen Yu doesn't care about others, she immediately said happily: "Mom, you heard, she said she would go!"
"Great, I don't have to go to the countryside!"
Looking at the bouncing Shen Yu, the expressions of the others are different.
Shen Man didn't feel the slightest feeling, but felt a kind of relief...
Thinking of the grievances this body has suffered before, it is better to go to the countryside.
She is no longer the original Shen Man, but Shen Man from another time and space.
Before he had time to think about it, Shen Zhengxin said, "Xiaoman, have you thought about it?"
"This is not a joke. I don't know when I can come back when I go to the countryside. And going to the countryside is not like ours, and the conditions there are even worse."
Some things still need to be explained clearly, because the children in the family have not been going to the countryside for a long time, and the leaders have talked to him, saying that he is not very conscious.
If it can be settled as soon as possible, then hurry up.
Shen Yu on the side became even more anxious when he heard this, "It's even worse, let me go, and you still say you are not partial!"
Hearing the words, Shen Man wanted to laugh even more. He didn't go after so long. Didn't he wait for the original owner to go automatically?
But she didn't say anything, the original owner is just a boring gourd, and talking too much will arouse their suspicion.
She nodded and said, "I've decided, but I have a request."
Shen Zhengxin glared at Shen Yu, with a hint of hatred in his eyes.
"Tell me." Shen Zhengxin didn't immediately agree.
The others looked at her, wondering what the request was.
Shen Man took a deep breath, supported his weak body and said, "I want a new cotton jacket, cotton trousers and cotton shoes, and the gray cashmere coat I bought for my second sister!"
"What?!" Shen Yu changed his face on the spot, "You..."
Before she finished speaking, Shen Zhengxin looked at her coldly, "Why don't you go to the countryside?"
He doesn't care who the clothes are for, as long as he decides who will go to the countryside. Shen Yu didn't want to go, didn't want to give her sister something, and didn't want to think about it.
As long as people are sent away first, what is a piece of clothing?
These words completely hit Shen Yu's lifeblood.
A piece of clothing, go to the countryside.
Even if she is unhappy, she still knows how to choose, isn't it just a piece of clothing? She can have more in the future!
The most important thing now is to let Shen Man go to the countryside, to go for himself! Otherwise, what should we do in the future?
Thinking of this, Shen Yu unwillingly glanced at the pale man opposite.
"Here you are!" She agreed angrily.
Hmph, I don’t know what to wear so well, to farm in good clothes?
Shen Man didn't care about her expression, turned his head and said: "That's fine, the rest, Mom...you can go to the Educated Youth Office and tell me, I will take a break in the next two days before I can start."
This "Mom" is extremely awkward, but thinking about the current situation, it can't be awkward for two days.
Seeing the door close, Mother Shen sighed helplessly.
"Every day doesn't make me worry!" She was angry with Shen Yu, and she also felt sorry for the child.
Compared to Shen Man, a boring gourd, she still likes Shen Yu. At the very least, she has a sweeter mouth and can speak nice words, unlike a little girl who knows how to bow her head and make trouble when she looks at her.
But now it's this Zheng Ce, no one can't help but listen.
Shen Zhengxin glanced at the clock on the cabinet, got up and said, "I'm going to work."
Today this matter is settled, no matter who goes to the countryside, it doesn't matter to him.
Because in his heart, the most important thing is his son and grandson. A daughter can be hurt, but it depends on the situation.
But he was happy to agree, especially for this boring girl, who was out of sight and out of mind.
Seeing him leaving, Shen Yu went over and took Zhang Mei's hand: "Mom, I don't want to give that dress to Shen Man, can you buy another one for her? I haven't worn it yet after spending so much money." .”
She hasn't worn the new clothes yet, and seeing that autumn is coming soon, it's time to wear thick clothes.
I don't know why this dead girl is crazy, she insists on grabbing clothes from herself!
I used to look quite honest, but I didn't expect to be a black heart! I guess I have been thinking about my good things for a long time, hum!
Besides, the dress cost 18 yuan. It took a long time for the family to agree to buy it, and it also included the pocket money I had saved for a year.
New book is here!
