Chapter 285 Director Zhu was shocked [Please subscribe]

  County town.

 By the Nanliu River.

Hearing the proud expression on Deng Yunzhen's face, Zhu Junjie praised sincerely: "It's really rare to have someone like my uncle. Our village's conditions are not good, and they basically only provide education for their sons. If their daughters want to go to school, that's not the case." Possible things.”

Deng Yunzhen said: "There is no way. The water that the married daughter drains is not only our Songshan Commune, but also the entire Bobai realm."

  Zhu Junjie nodded, skipped the topic, and asked: "Azhen, I heard that your five younger brothers and sisters are still studying?"

Deng Yunzhen hummed and said, “They are all still studying!”

Zhu Junjie asked: "The older one is older, should he be in college?"

Deng Yunzhen said: "My second brother is already in his junior year of college this year!"

Zhu Junjie said with an envious look: "College student, I also wanted to go to college at that time, but unfortunately I couldn't get into it. Which university did your second brother go to?"

So, Deng Shirong took a car to Songshan Commune the next day, then rushed to Changpo Village of Shanxin Brigade, and then visited seven or eight households to inquire about Zhu Junjie's family.

You should know that even in ordinary universities, fresh graduates every year may not be able to pass three.

But if you don’t have a good impression of each other, or you just have a one-sided good impression, then the chatting scene will be very awkward, because no matter how hard you try to find a topic, the other person will always show a lack of interest, even if it is out of reason. A few polite replies are also very perfunctory.

 After Zhang Guoan, the matchmaker, and the three members of the Zhu family left, everyone immediately asked Deng Yunzhen about the situation.

If anyone with experience in love sees this, they will know that these two people are probably going to get married.

 …

　　It wasn't until their stomachs protested from hunger that the two of them woke up. Then they smiled at each other and walked back to the original road together.

This time, Zhu Junjie was sure that he heard correctly, and his eyes widened in shock. He never expected that his blind date's family was not only rich, but also had a younger brother who was studying at Peking University. This family's financial situation was so dazzling. .

 …

Deng Yunzhen smiled and said: "He is indeed a genius in reading, but even we find it unbelievable that he was admitted to Peking University."

 “What about your other brothers and sisters?”

Zhu Junjie was stunned for a moment when he heard this. He thought he heard it wrong and asked: "Which university?"

Deng Yunzhen nodded and said, "Dad, I understand."

Zhu Junjie's eldest brother inherited the characteristics of his parents and is also an honest and responsible person. His eldest sister-in-law is also a diligent and capable woman, but she is a bit petty and likes to care about everything. Only she can take advantage of others, and it is difficult for others to take advantage of her. cheap.

The relationship between a man and a woman is the strangest. When two people like each other, there is really no need to worry about running out of topics to chat, and there will never be a chance of silence, because no matter what you say, the other party will listen to it with interest, and you will also enjoy it. I will praise you for being able to master it without a teacher.

After all, Bobai High School is the best high school in the county. Those who can get into this high school are basically the best students from each commune. The chance of getting into college is much higher than other high schools in the county.

Seeing Zhu Junjie stunned with shock, the considerate Deng Yunzhen cleverly diverted his attention and said: "Speaking of which, my second brother is also an alumnus of you. He also studied in Songshan High School in Class 34. "

 In this case, no matter how enthusiastic you are, it will slowly cool down.

Deng Yunzhen smiled and repeated: "Beijing University."

If the other person's family is just rich, then he is also the deputy director of the Public Security Bureau, so he will still have confidence when facing the other person.

“My third brother is now in the first year of high school in Bogao, my sister and my fourth brother are in junior high school in my hometown, and my younger brother is in the fifth grade in the village’s primary school.”

 Zhang Xiuping, the sister-in-law, was the first to ask: "Azhen, how are you? Do you like it?"

 When mentioning this, Deng Yunzhen felt extremely proud and said with a smile on her face: "Peking University."

As for Zhu Junjie himself, he left the impression on the villagers that he was a naughty and mischievous child, but he was also very loyal and very popular among his peers. He was regarded as the child king of his generation.

 …

As soon as these words came out, Zhu Junjie was even more surprised. He had studied at Songshan High School and naturally knew the strength of the teachers in this high school. To describe it as ordinary would be a compliment. Such a school actually produced a Peking University student?

The two of them faced the Nanliu River and chatted all over the world. There was no specific topic and they could talk about whatever they thought of. Even if it was some "saltless and tasteless" homely things, the two of them could chat with "relish".

 As for ordinary universities and Peking University, they are on the same level as the sky and the earth. They are not on the same level at all.

 Suifeng Hotel.

 Sure enough, the matchmaker was right, the woman’s family are all cultural people!

afternoon.

But if you add a promising Peking University student, then the other person’s family needs money and background, which is much better than his family.

 Zhang Xiuping smiled and said: "That's a good start!"

Zhu Junjie exclaimed with a face full of amazement: "Oh my god, Zhen, your second brother is really a genius. It's incredible that you were admitted to Peking University from Songshan High School."

Due to the profound lessons learned in his previous life, Deng Shirong in this life attaches great importance to the marriage of his children. Even though he knows that outstanding soldiers from the army must be impeccable in terms of moral character, if he does not inquire clearly about other aspects, he still has some problems. worried.

 First of all, Zhu Junjie’s parents have a good reputation in the village. The couple never take advantage of anyone or have any disputes with anyone. They are the kind of people who live their lives accordingly.

 In front of family members and relatives, Deng Yunzhen did not hide anything and replied: "I feel that I got along well today. We still have to see the specific situation."

Zhu Junjie was shocked again when he heard this. The others were normal, but this third brother who is studying in Bogao will probably be a college student again in two years.

Deng Shirong said: "Since I feel it's okay, let's just get along with it first. Once we think about it clearly, it won't be too late to talk about marriage."

 When it came to the second brother and the second sister-in-law, the situation was reversed. The second brother was a bit petty, and even Shuangwang could hear his calculations, but the second sister-in-law was more generous.

Because the two of them chatted so enthusiastically, they chatted for more than two hours without realizing it.

 At the same time, he also inherited the advantage of his parents who did not take advantage of others. He never took anything from others and had good character.

 After hearing all this clearly, he finally felt relieved.

Although Zhu Junjie's sister-in-law and second brother are not easy to get along with, they have separated and lived alone after all. Even if they become relatives in the future, they will only get together during holidays. They should have few opportunities to interact with each other in normal times. Doesn't affect anything.

 The purpose was achieved, and Deng Shirong left Changpo Village with satisfaction.

 …

 After the Spring Equinox.

 The entire Bobai realm has begun large-scale ancestor worship activities again.

As the leader of the clan, Deng Shirong had to decide whether to shovel or sacrifice Dazhong Mountain.

In the Nayedeng clan, shoveling mountains and offering sacrifices to ancestors are completely different.

 Shoveling a mountain is relatively simple, just like a mountain. A grave can often be shoveled in less than half an hour.

As for the mountain sacrifice, it is more grand and complicated. Not only do you have to beat gongs and drums all the way, but you also have to carry clan flags with the word "Deng" written on them, and then carry a whole big fat pig, a whole sheep and chickens. Sacrifices such as geese and ducks.

You know, Shuangwang Realm is full of mountains, so people are buried on the mountains after death. Some uninhabited mountains don't even have roads up the mountains. It's not easy to carry a whole big fat pig up the mountain. things.

After arriving at the tomb, the previous process is the same as shoveling the mountain. When the surrounding weeds are cleared and the ancestor worship begins, a respected person will be asked to read the sacrificial inscriptions, and then there will be specialized people to operate according to the sacrificial inscriptions, and the tribesmen will He also followed the instructions and began to kneel three times and kowtow nine times.

Those who are qualified to kneel in the row in front are all prominent figures in the clan. They are either rich, have high official positions, or have high prestige in the clan.

 In short, offering sacrifices to mountains requires a lot of manpower and material resources to support.

Furthermore, once the mountain worship begins, it cannot only be held for one year, but must be held for three consecutive years.

A few years ago, due to reasons well-known to everyone, the Nayedeng family had not offered sacrifices to the mountain for more than ten years. But this year, some members of the tribe proposed to start worshiping the mountain, so a group of prominent people in the tribe got together to discuss this matter. thing.

Deng Yuntian said: "Uncle Jiu, under your leadership, our life is getting better and better, and the current situation is not as tense as before. We can consider starting to worship the mountain."

Deng Yunfa answered and said: "Our Deng family has not offered sacrifices to the mountain for more than ten years. We really should consider offering sacrifices to the mountain."

Deng Yungui said: "We can start thinking about offering sacrifices to mountains, but I don't think we should act too hastily. Now the situation has been relaxed a lot, but it has not been completely relaxed yet. If someone makes a fuss about this, it will still be a bit troublesome. I suggest you wait and see." ”

Deng Changbao said: "I also think we should wait and see. Let's not talk about the situation. Let's just say that the passenger transport company has not started paying dividends yet. It is still a little bit interesting to worship ancestors in such a big way. When the passenger transport company starts paying dividends next year, then It’s not too late to consider worshiping ancestors.”

Deng Changxiong said: "I agree with A Bao's statement. When the passenger transport company pays dividends next year, we can worship our ancestors in a lively manner."

Deng Shi'an looked at Deng Shirong and asked: "Lao Jiu, what do you think?" Deng Shirong said: "The purpose of ancestor worship is not only to remember the ancestors, but also to represent the continuation of life, promote the clan culture, and enhance the cohesion of the clan. This is a must. It needs to be done. But now that everyone’s money is invested in the passenger transport company, it is really not appropriate to worship ancestors at this time.

 So, let’s wait until the passenger transport company pays dividends next year, and then happily engage in ancestor worship activities! "

Deng Shi'an nodded and said: "Okay, let's hold the ceremony next year. Anyway, we have been waiting for it for so many years, so it won't be short of this year."

Other tribesmen heard the words and agreed, and the matter was settled.

 …

 The twenty-ninth day of the second lunar month is Saturday.

At nine o'clock in the morning, Deng Shirong and his family took the sacrifices and tools and set out to shovel the mountain.

The ancestors are really very particular about Feng Shui. Many ancestors even asked Feng Shui masters to take care of their cemeteries before they were alive. Therefore, these ancestral tombs are not buried in the same mountain, but one in the east and the other in the west. The mountain is shoveled every year. They all had to travel over mountains and ridges, and most of their time was spent on the road.

In the past few decades, people have stopped burying people far away, and have mostly buried them in the mountain opposite. As a result, more and more people have been buried. In later generations, there will be at least dozens of graves buried in the mountain opposite. Look at it. It's so densely packed that even if you stay there alone in broad daylight, you'll feel a chill on your back.

This mountain named Dawodu has also become a veritable cemetery.

Of course, that was in later generations. Now there are only a few tombs in Dawodu, no different from other mountains.

The rhythm of shoveling mountains in Deng Shirong's family is that they shovel their grandfathers in the morning, and shovel their parents and deceased wife in the afternoon.

Since the graves of his grandparents were quite far away, Deng Shirong asked his eldest daughter-in-law to stay at home to take care of Xiao Donger and Dongzi. In the afternoon, when they went to Dawodu across the street to shovel the graves of their parents and his late wife, the whole family came out.

 The distance from Deng Shirong's home to Dawodu is only a few hundred meters, with a river in the middle.

This river is where young people in the village come to swim and bathe in the summer, and the eldest girls and young wives in the village come here to wash clothes all year round.

When Deng Shirong walked across the wooden bridge, he looked at the clear river water and thought of how polluted the river was in later generations. He felt a sense of responsibility in his heart. Even if it was impossible to maintain the clear river water now, it must not be polluted. Pollution will lead to the appearance of future generations.

But there is no rush now. The water in this river was still very clear until the mid-1990s. It is no exaggeration to say that when many people are thirsty, they just pick up the water in the river and drink it.

When the passenger transport company makes a lot of money, they will invest part of the money to build river embankments, plant landscape trees, and make the river the most beautiful scenery in the village. At that time, they will call on everyone to pay attention to protecting the environment and preventing the river water from being polluted. I think there should be some Effective.

Of course, river water prevention and control cannot be done by the Jedeng clan alone. It must be done in conjunction with other brigades upstream. Otherwise, no matter how good you are in the downstream, it will be in vain if the upstream does not pay attention.

 So, it is still very difficult to do this.

 Fortunately, there is no rush now. In a few years, when he has a certain prestige in several nearby brigades and even other communes, it should not be difficult to take the lead in this matter.

 …

In this era, due to the scarcity of trucks, as long as there is a way to do freight, it is really no different from picking up money. It is really very profitable.

Bu Zhongshi is really enjoying the benefits now, especially after establishing a relationship with the mines of Zhou Wang's brigade, he has endless goods to haul every day.

The mine of Zhouwang Brigade was named Mine 541. It was identified by the Guangdong 704 Geological Team in June 1965. It was handed over to the Guangxi Sixth Geological Team for continued survey in 1969 and was found to be a medium-sized niobium and tantalum deposit in granitic pegmatite. Minerals that can be comprehensively recycled include cassiterite, potassium feldspar and kaolin.

In veins 5-15 meters deep from the surface, potassium feldspar has been weathered into kaolin, which is mined as white mud by local people. The products are sold to more than 20 porcelain factories inside and outside the area for firing industrial porcelain and daily-use porcelain, so it is available all year round. Endless white mud.

Over the past year or so, Bu Zhongshi has made a lot of money.

Seeing how easy it was to make money, Bu Zhongshi planned to buy another truck.

However, before making a decision, Bu Zhongshi made a special trip to his uncle's house to ask his uncle's opinion. As long as his uncle agreed, he would dare to go ahead and do it. If his uncle felt that it was not possible, he would wait and see.

Under the wooden shed, after listening to his nephew's words, Deng Shirong did not answer directly, but asked: "How many people have you trained to help drive?"

Bu Zhongshi said: "There are four people who have obtained driver's licenses, but the only one who can do it alone is Da Jun."

Deng Shirong said: "You have to train a few drivers who can act independently. The number of trucks is just increasing one by one. The development speed is still too slow. Now there is endless white mud. By September and October, Your sugar cane can also be cut down, and you will have a lot of cargo to haul.

I think we can take a bigger step and just buy two more trucks. Let Dajun drive one, and hire a driver to drive one. In this way, if the three trucks run non-stop, your income will definitely increase quickly. "

Seeing that his uncle was so optimistic, the young and energetic Bu Zhongshi had no scruples, so he immediately responded and said: "Okay, then I will go to the bank for a loan tomorrow. When the money comes down, I will buy two more trucks and run back."

Deng Shirong reminded: "If you want to borrow more, you can borrow more. When you want to buy more cars later, you don't have to worry about running out of money to buy them. Money is easier to borrow now, but it doesn't mean that bank money will always be so easy to loan."

Bu Zhongshi nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll loan as much as I can."

"You must form your driver team as soon as possible, find those reliable young people in the village, train them, and then you can continue to increase the number of your trucks. In this era, as long as you have a car, you don't need to find goods. Those goods The owner will take the initiative to come to you."

"Okay, I understand, I will arrange this later."

 …

  County town.

 Public Security Bureau.

After Zhu Junjie finished his work, he hurried toward the entrance of the Public Security Bureau without even going back to change his clothes.

Stepping out of the door, he saw Deng Yunzhen already standing there waiting. Zhu Junjie said quickly: "Sorry, I'm late!"

Deng Yunzhen smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, your work is important."

“Then let’s go eat a bowl of noodles first and then go for a walk in the park together?”

“Okay, come with me. I know a noodle stall that makes delicious rice noodles.”

So the two of them walked towards Dongwei and ate a bowl of authentic raw rice noodles at a noodle stall before walking towards People's Park together.

Bobai County People's Park is located on the north side of the county. It was formerly Zhongshan Park. It was renamed Bobai County People's Park in 1956. The park covers an area of ​​18,432 square meters.

This was not the first time the two dated. Since that day, they left a good impression on each other. In the following period, Zhu Junjie often asked Deng Yunzhen to go shopping, watch movies, or find a place with a nice view. A place to chat or something.

After several contacts, the relationship between the two has warmed up a lot, and it feels like a real love.

In this era, various facilities in Bobai People's Park were not as complete as in later generations, but now is the time when a hundred flowers are blooming, and the scenery is still very beautiful.

The two were walking on the forest path, and Zhu Junjie asked the question in his mind: "Azhen, in the village, people of your age and my age are usually married and have children, so why are you still thinking about getting married in two years? ?”

Deng Yunzhen said with a smile: "There is no reason. I just want to live a comfortable life at home for two more years. I don't want to suffer the pain of getting married so early."

Zhu Junjie laughed when he heard this and said, "Who told you that you will suffer when you marry someone?"

Deng Yunzhen said: "Of course this is not absolute. For example, when my sister-in-law married into our family, she has been enjoying happiness, but many girls who married into our village are actually suffering. On the one hand, they have to do everything, and on the other hand, they have to do everything. On the other hand, it may depend on the mother-in-law's face. It would be even worse if she couldn't give birth to a son.

 In short, after seeing the kind of life they live, I think it is better not to marry so early and enjoy the blessings of staying with your parents' family for two more years. "

Zhu Junjie said: "Azhen, are you too pessimistic about marriage? Since your sister-in-law can live such a good life when she marries into your family, then you also have a chance to live well when you get married!"

Deng Yunzhen looked at him with a half-smile, and said meaningfully: "I'm not pessimistic. As the saying goes, men are afraid of getting into the wrong profession, and women are afraid of marrying the wrong man. This marriage is a major event related to the happiness of a lifetime, and of course it cannot be decided so hastily. , you must observe carefully."

Zhu Junjie naturally heard the implication and said with a smile: "You are right, you should observe carefully. If you are not satisfied, you must not marry."

"I think so too."

Deng Yunzhen smiled brightly and then asked: "I also have a question to ask you."

 Zhu Junjie said: "Excuse me, I will tell you everything I know."

Deng Yunzhen asked with a serious expression: "I know that we white people all have the mentality of favoring boys over girls. It is very rare for someone like my dad to treat everyone equally. I wonder if your parents are serious in this regard? If you marry in the future, Now that you have a daughter-in-law, do you have to wait until your daughter-in-law gives birth to a son?”

Hearing this question, Zhu Junjie knew that this was a test. If his answer did not satisfy the other party, the consequences might be serious.

 As for the idea of ​​​​preferring boys over girls, his parents must have it. Zhu Junjie knew this well.

After thinking for a moment, Zhu Junjie replied: "Azhen, your question is indeed on point. I won't hide it from you in this regard. My parents must have a patriarchal mentality. After all, their generation You know it well, man.

As for whether I want to have a son after I get married, according to my parents' wishes, it is definitely necessary. However, I am quite open-minded in this regard. I can accept having a boy or a girl, and I will not be obsessed with having a son. No. "

Deng Yunzhen asked again: "You are not obsessed with having a son, but your parents insist on letting you have a son until you have a son. How would you deal with this situation?"

It was not that she had to make things difficult for the other party, but she wanted to "speak first and then avoid chaos". Deng Yunzhen, the village's Zhang Qi, had seen the experience of giving birth to five daughters in the past, and she did not want to suffer the same fate.

No matter whether it is a boy or a girl, she is only planning to have three children and not one more.
