It is estimated that the yard is too lively.

A figure walked by the door, it was Aunt Liu next door.

"Hey, Xiaohe is back!"

Zhou Xiaohe said hello with a smile on his face, "Yes, Aunt Liu, it's been a few years since I've been back, and I took a family leave!"

Aunt Liu looked Xiaohe up and down, and clicked her tongue, "Oh, I haven't seen you in a few years, you've grown into a big guy! After working for so long, have you ever become an official?"

Zhou Xiaohe smiled without changing his face, "Oh, where can I be a high-ranking official, just a big soldier."

Aunt Liu nodded when she heard the words, "Hey, it's not bad to be a soldier. You are also lucky. If Xie Fangjun didn't come to your school to enroll students, you wouldn't be able to get this benefit!"

This sentence is not wrong.

When one person is a soldier, the whole family is honored!

Unless there is a special period, the indicators of being a soldier are very tight these days.

Not everyone can get in.

Especially in rural areas, ordinary communes do not necessarily have a quota for a year.

After Aunt Liu finished speaking, she sighed, "If the third child in my family hadn't found a worker at the non-staple food station, I would have sent him to serve as a soldier. The salary is only more than 30 yuan a month."

Zhou Xiaochuan couldn't help but laugh when he heard the words.

Aunt Liu's family has three children, and the eldest has been working long ago.

The second child and the third child were sent to the countryside, and one child was left behind, and the other was assigned to the non-staple food station.

So it's a pretty good life.

Everyone in the neighborhood knows that there is a person who works at a non-staple food station in his house.

Usually can get a lot of good things.

She told everyone that if she bought anything in the future, she would look for her youngest son.

Yang Yuemei had talked to him many times.

Aunt Liu looked at so many books on the table, and asked strangely, "What are you doing...?"

Zhou Xiaochuan told the reason with a smile when he heard the words.

Aunt Liu nodded after listening, "Well, this is a good thing! Then you do it, it's the Chinese New Year soon, if you need anything, tell your aunt, and she will get it for you if she can help you."

After speaking, he said hello and left.

Seeing the back of the other party leaving, the Zhou Xiaochuan brothers looked at each other and smiled without saying anything.

Those who don’t need a ticket can buy it themselves.

After all, the provincial capital is no better than a small commune in the north.

It's useless for those who need a ticket to find her, and it's impossible for the other party to help him get the ticket!

But this Chinese New Year is indeed a special time.

There is a person inside, some things are in short supply, and can help keep some.

Zhou Xiaomi, who had been silent all this time, pouted.

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan knocked her on the head. "What's your expression?"

The little guy rubbed his knocked head, "Brother, why are you hitting me again! This person is so annoying, when you're not around, she always comes over at night. Just say how nice her third son is!"

Zhou Xiaochuan was taken aback when he heard her words, and then hesitated for a while.

The third son of the other party is sixteen years old this year and seventeen years old after that.

He is only three years older than Zhou Xiaomi.

This wouldn't be the idea of ​​beating the little guy, would it?

After thinking about it, it is really not impossible, who made the little girl look good and tall.

Thinking of this, he sneered for a while.

Think too much!

The other party's flamboyant nature didn't disgust him much, at most it was a little disgusting.

This is also human nature.

Whose son is promising, not talking about it all day long!

But if you really want to play with the little guy, don't even think about it.

I do not know how it is.

Thinking of this made him feel a little angry.

But looking back at Xiaomi's childish face, he smiled.

I wonder if this is too early.

Seeing Zhou Xiaochuan in a daze, Xiaomi tilted his head and asked, "Brother, are you stupid?"

After speaking, he quickly covered his head.

To prevent Zhou Xiaochuan from hitting her again.

Zhou Xiaochuan couldn't help but laugh when he heard the words, no, the little guy can't get married under the age of 25.

wrong.

There is his space spring.

Even if the little guy is in his 30s, he definitely looks like he's only in his twenties.

How about remarrying in your thirties?

After the children who came to exchange books had left, Zhou Xiaochuan handed Xiaohe a bath ticket.

Let him go to the bathroom to take a bath.

And he went to the kitchen to cook.

This family reunion, how to get something delicious.

When Xiao He came back, his meal had just been prepared.

Tamale, braised shrimp, braised large yellow croaker, seafood soup!

There is also a piece of roast duck just out of the oven.

There are not many types of dishes, but they are all generous.

"mother!"

At this moment, Yang Yuemei also came back from get off work, and when she heard the shouts in the room, she was stunned for a moment.

When it was clear that there was one more person in the room.

With a look of excitement on his face, he walked quickly to Zhou Xiaohe's side, "Oh, Xiaohe, you are finally back. Why are you back?"

While speaking, he touched Xiaohe's face and arms with excitement.

Then what did you want to hit, and hurriedly asked: "Is your injury healed? Show your mother quickly."

As he spoke, tears flowed down his face.

Zhou Xiaohe hurriedly comforted him: "Mother, it's been a long time ago! It's been so long and it's not good!"

"Then show me the wound."

"Mom, I'm wearing thick pants, what do you think! And it's still on my thigh!"

Yang Yuemei wiped away her tears and scolded with a smile: "Little bastard, what are you embarrassing about with your mother!"

Zhou Xiaohe smiled wryly when he heard the words, "Mother, everything is fine, there is nothing to see!"

Hearing Zhou Xiaohe's words, Yang Yuemei looked at her two sons.

Then sighed.

The boys are all grown up!

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan could only persuade, "Mother, it's fine, don't talk about it, Xiaohe hasn't eaten since he came back. Hurry up and eat! The food will be cold in a while."

Hearing that his son hadn't eaten, he hurriedly said, "Oh, then eat quickly! You guys are serious, don't you know how to eat first? Just save some for me!"

Before sitting down at the table, he started chattering.

Several people began to eat.

While eating, Yang Yuemei asked about his situation.

Zhou Xiaochuan wanted Aunt Liu during the day.

I want to ask, seeing the little guy here, he didn't have the nerve to say it.

A meal is eaten very late.

After dinner, Yang Yuemei was generous once and lit two large coal stoves.

As for Zhou Xiaochuan, of course he doesn't need it.

In fact, this stove is also used when I am at home during the day.

It's much less effective at night.

Seeing the coal, he thought that the time agreed with Fatty Wang had come.

He said hello and went out.

Several other people are no longer surprised by Zhou Xiaochuan's frequent running out at night.

When he came to the place, he didn't care about other people around him.

Pulling the cart directly to Fatty Wang's side.

This scooter was the one I bought from Helao before, with an iron structure all over, and the tires were still car tires.

Seeing Zhou Xiaochuan coming, the other party was also happy for a while, "Hey, I thought you wouldn't come today!"

"It's all agreed, how could you not come! What about things?"

Fatty Wang said in a low voice, "Come with me."

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan took him to a house.

Pushing open the room, I saw 5 big bags inside.

Fatty Wang pointed to the coal on the ground and said: "Everything is here, 1,000 catties is only a little more."

Zhou Xiaochuan took a look and confirmed that there was no problem, so he nodded.

"How much?"

Fatty Wang chuckled, "The briquettes on the market cost 12 yuan per 1,000 catties, and if you count the amount of coal, it costs 24 yuan."

Zhou Xiaochuan nodded upon hearing this.

A bit expensive.

Much more expensive than northern Shaanxi.

The main reason is that it is used a lot in winter and the supply is in short supply.

But there is Fatty Wang's profit in it.

"Okay! Give me a hand and help me lift my things to the car."

After speaking, he took out 24 yuan from his pocket.

Fatty Wang took the money and counted it, and said with a cheerful smile, "Hey, okay. I'll help you."

The two joined hands and put the coal on the car.

He tried to pull.

Started very slowly.

But it's much better after moving, just like a car breaking down and pushing a car.

Fatty Wang watched Zhou Xiaochuan leave.

He happily returned to his side and continued to squat.

Zhou Xiaochuan pulled a distance, and seeing Fatty Wang leave, he put his things into the space, and rode away on his bicycle.

After walking for a while, he felt his face was a little wet.

Damn, it's raining.

No, it should be sleet.

Then he hurriedly rode his bicycle towards the house quickly, but don't get too big.

Halfway through, Zhou Xiaochuan stopped suddenly.

Because he is worried about bumping into people, his thoughts are always opened.

The reason why he stopped was because he found the situation in a room.

Or the basement.

Because at this time, an old man in his fifties was listening to the radio in the basement.

From the looks of it, the telegram should have just been sent.

Ready to settle.

The other party carefully put the things into a box.

Put it in a hole.

Then use a shovel to shovel the sweet potatoes in the basement to cover them.

Even if someone comes in, don't open the sweet potatoes.

It's also hard to find anything.

After the other party is done, climb into the house.

At this time, there was a woman and two children sleeping soundly in the opposite room.

"Why did you go, so long?"

A female voice sounded.

The man said with a smile: "Oh, my stomach feels a little uncomfortable, I'm going to the latrine."

"Oh, go to sleep, what time is it?"

Hearing what the woman said, the man didn't speak, he lifted the quilt and lay down.

Then fell asleep.

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan remembered this place.

Definitely report it!

But he wasn't going to meddle by himself, so he just threw the information to Zheng Bing tomorrow.

Then he rode his bicycle towards the house.

When he came near his home, he dodged into the space.

With a thought, I got the coal out of these bags and cleaned them all.

coal washing!

Only the large particles of sub-coal are left.

Otherwise, when it burns, the house will be full of ashes. Such large particles will only burn with a small amount of ash.

After getting it done.

Only then did he pull the cart back into the yard.

When I got home, the whole family was awake and talking in the room.

Hearing the commotion outside, Zhou Xiaohe and Yang Yuemei came out.

Seeing several bags on the car, I was surprised for a while.

Zhou Xiaochuan whispered to Zhou Xiaohe, "Okay, don't look, it's snowing, help me carry things to the kitchen!"

Zhou Xiaohe hurried over when he heard the words.

The two joined hands to carry the coal into the house.

After the two finished it, Yang Yuemei asked with a strange face: "Xiao Chuan, what did you make? So black is coal?"

Zhou Xiaochuan nodded when he heard the words, "Yes, it's coal, mother, don't be reluctant in the future."

After Yang Yuemei heard it, she let out a soft sound.

Quickly get some hot water to wash the two of them.

Zhou Xiaochuan pretended to go out and returned the car.

It was a while before he came back.

There was already hot water in the basin on the washstand.

Zhou Xiaochuan washed his hands, thinking that Xiaomi had fallen asleep, he asked Yang Yuemei.

Hearing what he said, Yang Yuemei thought for a while, "I didn't say that, hasn't she always showed off like this?"

After she finished speaking, she came to her senses, "Don't talk about it, it seems that you really have some meaning when you say it like this. She kept praising Xiaomi when she saw her. She kept asking about Xiaomi's work."

Zhou Xiaochuan nodded upon hearing this.

It is estimated that the other party wants to find a dual-career daughter-in-law for his son.

Families with dual careers these days, don't live too comfortably!

Xiaomi might just be in her consideration.

Zhou Xiaochuan shook his head and laughed.

What a joke!

Zhou Xiaochuan smiled at the side, "Mom, next time she asks, you just say that Xiaohe is now at the deputy company level, with a salary of 20 yuan, 72 yuan a month."

Zhou Xiaohe was speechless for a while, "Brother, why are you using me to show off? Don't you always hate this?"

Yang Yuemei was surprised when she heard the words, "Yes! Didn't you let me tell you?"

Zhou Xiaochuan rolled his eyes at Xiaohe, "Look at your embarrassing look, it's not for me to show off, but if someone asks, mother just tell the truth."

His previous thought was not to be so ostentatious.

But after thinking about it, Xiaohe's nature is different after all, and spreading the word will only benefit the family.

After all, this is also a kind of protection.

With Yang Yuemei and Zhou Xiaohe's salary together, it's 100 yuan a month.

It is also more convenient to buy something at home.

Yang Yuemei nodded and yawned, feeling a little sleepy.

"Okay! I'm going to sleep. I have to go to work tomorrow!"

After speaking, he said hello and went back.

Seeing this, the two brothers also returned to their rooms.

Lying in bed.

Zhou Xiaochuan thought of the person he saw tonight, and thought that he would tell Zheng Bing about it tomorrow.

At this time, the snow outside is getting bigger and bigger.

next morning.

When he got up, Xiao He and Xiaomi were already up.

Xiaohe is taking the little guy to make a snowman in the yard.

Zhou Xiaochuan glanced at it, it snowed heavily last night! It is more than 20 centimeters thick to say the least.

The outside world is covered in silver.

It was a vast expanse of white, and almost no other colors could be seen.

"Brother, come here and help!"

Xiaomi took the shovel and was busy there, completely ignoring the cold and red hands.

Seeing Zhou Xiaochuan coming out, he hurriedly yelled.

After ignoring her and going back to the room to wash up, he came over.

"It's different after being a soldier! Wake up so early!"

Zhou Xiaohe turned his head and smiled while helping the little guy build a snowman.

Zhou Xiaochuan nodded when he heard the words, and looked around.

Instead of helping, he picked up the shovel and started to mess around.

"Oh, brother, what are you doing! Come and help!"

Xiaomi complained there.

"You play yours, I play mine!"

After finishing talking, don't care about the little guy.

The other party pouted when he heard the words, and continued to make his own snowman.

Zhou Xiaochuan saw that the snow was quite heavy, so he tried to see if he could get a slide.

But half the time.

An unexpected guest arrives.

Zheng Bing!

"Is this Zhou Xiaochuan's home?"

The other party yelled at the door.

Zhou Xiaochuan was surprised to see Zheng Bing standing at the door.

Could it be that the spies have come to your home?

Suspiciously, he put the shovel in his hand aside. He smiled at Zheng Bing, "Director Zheng, how come you have time to come here! Rare visitor!"

Zheng Bing looked at Zhou Xiaochuan, and then realized, "Oh, it's you! I thought who it was!"

Zhou Xiaochuan smiled when he heard the words, "Yes! You must have forgotten it! Is there something wrong? It's cold outside, so let's talk about it in the room!"

Although his two affairs were handled by the other party.

But he is a busy person after all, with so many things to deal with, how can he remember so many people clearly.

Zheng Bing nodded, "Okay! I have something important to ask you."

After speaking, he looked at Xiao He and the two who were playing next to him.

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan said to Zhou Xiaohe: "Xiaohe, Director Zheng and I have something to say, you take Xiaomi to play in the yard."

Hearing this, Xiao He understood what he meant and nodded.

"Director Zheng, sit down first."

After taking Zheng Bing into the main room, he went to make tea.

Zheng Bing took off the flocking hat on his head, looked around, "Oh, it's so warm in your room!"

"Director Zheng, drink some tea to warm yourself up!"

Zhou Xiaochuan smiled and put the teacup on the table. Then sat next to him.

Zheng Bing took the teacup and thanked him.

"Oh, good stuff!"

After speaking, the other party took a sip of tea! He sighed again, "Well, what a good tea!"

Zhou Xiaochuan smiled when he heard the words, "Director Zheng, you didn't come here just to say that the tea is good!"

Hearing Zhou Xiaochuan's words, Zheng Bing glanced outside.

Then he put down the teacup and said with a serious face: "Comrade Zhou Xiaochuan, I came to see you today because I have something important to do, I hope you can help!"

Zhou Xiaochuan was surprised when he heard the words.

The two of them have no intersection, so what can he do to help!

But he still said politely, "Director Zheng, if you have anything to say, just talk it over, and I will do my best to help if I can!"

"Okay, but you can't let others know about this matter. I was going to let you talk about it."

Zhou Xiaochuan nodded when he heard the words and did not speak, but listened quietly.

Seeing his expression, Zheng Bing continued: "I want you to help me catch the spies!"

This time Zhou Xiaochuan was really surprised.

Did he expose himself by throwing a note that day?

impossible!

How many tens of meters away?

And after throwing it away, he ran away on the bike!

Unable to figure it out, he asked directly, "Director Zheng, what are you kidding, what ability do I have to catch the spies! I don't even know where the spies are!"

Zheng Bing smiled when he heard the words, "Don't be modest, I heard that you have a skill. Your hearing is very good, and you can hear very slight movements."

Zhou Xiaochuan was puzzled for a while.

Hearing this, he understood what was going on.

Instead of answering him, he asked back, "Director Zheng, how did you know?"

I only revealed this ability in the textile factory.

Who told him that!

Sensing Zhou Xiaochuan's doubts, Zheng Bing didn't explain, but said to him.

"I'll flick the cup a few times, you can try to hear it a few times."

Zhou Xiaochuan hesitated for a moment, then nodded. Anyway, his ability is not a secret in the textile factory.

Seeing this, Zheng Bing came to a distance.

With Zhou Xiaochuan on his back, he flicked the white porcelain cup in his hand a few times.

There are high and low voices.

When it is high, it can barely be heard, and when it is low, the sound is low and inaudible.

After knocking, he turned his head and asked, "How many times did you play just now?"

Zhou Xiaochuan smiled, "11 times!"

Hearing his words, Zheng Bing was shocked.

You must know that there were a few of them, and he hardly exerted any strength!

Then he said excitedly: "It's amazing! It's amazing, there is hope now! We are short of people like you!"

Zhou Xiaochuan didn't talk to him when he heard the words, but just looked at him like this.

Seeing his expression, Zheng Bing came to his senses and said with a smile, "Zhang Ping, Deputy Director Zhang. He recommended me."

Zhou Xiaochuan understood.

Zhang Ping has worked there for such a long time, and his details have been found out long ago.

His famous stunt of the year.

The other party is naturally clear.

Then he thought of something and said to him: "You mean to let me hear the voice of the telegram?"

Zheng Bing nodded upon hearing this.

Zhou Xiaochuan frowned and thought for a while, then slowly said: "Zheng Suo, it's not that I don't help, the question is how to help! In such a big provincial city, I can't go door-to-door to listen, and you know When did the other party send the telegram? During the day? At night? What time in the evening? If you can be sure, it must be a telegram to send information?"

This is not nonsense.

He can find the radio station, but how to find it requires a good logic.

Otherwise, just find something for yourself.

He would rather find out and tell the other party secretly.

And not everyone sends telegrams, those who do this must walk on multiple legs!

For those who don't have a radio station, it is even more difficult to hide their shadows!

Even if you can hear and see it yourself, others are not doing it all day long!

Once the news got out, it was normal life again.

It is not an exaggeration to describe it as finding a needle in a haystack.

Hearing his words, Zheng Bing fell into deep thought.

What Zhou Xiaochuan said is also correct, otherwise people like myself have been busy for so long, and there will be no progress at all.

The chat fell into an awkward place in an instant.

Zhou Xiaochuan didn't bother, and looked at Zhou Xiaohe outside, with an idea in his mind.

If the spy is caught, I don't know if it will benefit Xiaohe in the army.

At that time, these will all be recorded in the file!

At this time, Zheng Bing came back to his senses and sighed, and said helplessly: "Try it! If you can't find it, forget it. Whether you succeed or not, the people will thank you!"

Anyway, give it a try!

Zhou Xiaochuan rolled his eyes upon hearing this.

Then he said to him: "Yes, yes, but I have a request."

"you say!"

"If I catch it, I want to take the credit to my brother!"

Zheng Bing frowned when he heard the words, "Your brother didn't participate, isn't this a fraud?"

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan smiled. "Director Zheng, it's not a matter of a day or two to arrest people. I can't go to your camp all day long! I can only act alone. I usually just pay attention when I take my sister out to play."

"And sometimes I have to go out at night. It's so dangerous in the dark. My younger brother is a soldier and protects my safety. Isn't this considered participation?"

Zheng Bing thought for a while when he heard the words, he originally wanted people to follow him.

But Zhou Xiaochuan was just helping after all, so he could only nod his head. : "Okay, as long as you can find it, as long as everyone who participates, it will be counted as a share, it's fine!"

That's about the same.

But other people can't get involved.

No such thing as Xiaomi! Otherwise, it would be nice to get one for the little guy.

"Okay, I see. You can issue me a certificate, so that you don't get arrested in the middle of the night as a special case."

Zheng Bing nodded upon hearing this.

"Okay, I'll go to the office and issue a certificate for you right away."

After the other party finished speaking~lightnovelpub.net~, he left in a hurry.

Zhou Xiaochuan looked at the back of the other party who was leaving in a hurry and smiled, probably this guy was under too much pressure.

Otherwise, I wouldn't be in such a hurry.

"Brother, what's going on!"

Xiao He asked him a question.

Zhou Xiaochuan shook his head, "I'll tell you tonight!"

After finishing speaking, he continued to play with his slide.

Zhou Xiaohe let out a soft sigh when he heard the words.
