Rebirth 1994: Starting from laid-off workers

Er Jinzi was stunned for a moment, then pulled Zhang Jiaqiang with a smile on her face.

"Jia Qiang, you can't turn your elbows outward. This water pump needs to be remembered first in our family. Your uncle runs several miles every day to fetch water. He is so tired that he can't straighten his waist!"

There are only forty or fifty households in the village, and ten water pumps in rotation are enough.

It's not that Zhang Jiaqiang doesn't take care of his family, but there's no need to be special at all.

If other people's homes can take turns, my own must take special care?Are you going to sing about water overflowing like a golden mountain?

Zhang Jiaqiang ignored Er Jinzi, turned around and patted his cousin on the shoulder, "We're going to find someone, right? Ask your sister to follow Brother Zhuzi into the city, and buy one for whoever you like. It's a meeting gift!"

After all, people are called cousins, so they can't be too stingy. It's a trivial matter to buy clothes, but everyone can live well in terms of face.

He said and winked at Tiezhu.

"Okay, brother Qiang, don't worry. After buying the water pump, go pick out some clothes. They will definitely be satisfied!"

Xiao Liang jumped up and down happily, "Okay, let's go to a restaurant in the city at noon. I know there is a famous Noodle restaurant, I know the place!"

Erya rolled her eyes at her younger brother, "You are talking about the county town. If they go to the city, you will be blinded if you go. Anyway, I won't go, I will stay at home with grandma!"

Er Jinzi glared, "Go, why don't you go? You're such a stupid girl, why don't you stay here? What are you doing at home? Go, go, you haven't got decent clothes since school starts, go quickly!"

As he said that, he pushed his daughter on the back and rushed out the door.

"Mom, I don't want to go. I have to review my homework in the afternoon. I will take the college entrance examination next year!"

"It's not good to go shopping and get dressed for nothing. Why don't you review your homework? You damn girl is just disobedient. I asked you to have sex with Er Dou, but you also studied to block it. He is the son of the village chief. In the future, I will let you You eat white flour every day and are so stubborn, why did I give birth to a daughter like you!"

Erya was so anxious that she almost cried, "Why don't I go? If you force me again, I will die in front of you!"

Er Jinzi picked up a thick branch and pulled it towards her daughter's back, "You're going to die, go now, I'll feed you for nothing, so you don't have to look angry!"

The old lady in the courtyard was so anxious that she stamped her feet, "She's spanking her again, please stop her!"

Zhang Jiaqiang couldn't stand it anymore, so he stepped forward and grabbed the branch and threw it to the ground.

"Erya, if you don't want to go, don't go. The clothes are easy to talk about. My cousin keeps what he says!"

Then he took out a pile of banknotes and stuffed them into the old lady's hand, "Grandma, this money is for Erya to buy clothes and school supplies for the beginning of school. You should keep it and don't let others get it!"

The old lady couldn't see the denomination of the banknotes, but she knew a lot. She wouldn't accept any other money, but this was for her granddaughter's study. She shakily stuffed it into her pocket and nodded repeatedly.

"Don't worry, Jiaqiang. I'll keep it and give it to her as soon as school starts. We can't let those unscrupulous people take advantage of it!"

Er Jinzi heard that this was a reference to Sang Shuhuai, and when she saw the pile of brand-new banknotes, she was so jealous that she wanted to grab them.

But she was afraid that the money would be taken back, and she didn't dare to offend Zhang Jiaqiang. She thought to herself that she would let the old man warm up for a few days, and when Erya got it, wouldn't it be easy for me to get it over again?

Erya wiped her tears and said, "Cousin, I don't want money, I just want to ask you for something!"

Zhang Jiaqiang said softly, "Erya, tell me, as long as my cousin can do it, I will never refuse!"

Erya glanced at her mother and finally plucked up the courage to grit her teeth.

"I want to transfer to Luonan for my senior year of high school!"

"My dear, are you crazy? I'm not familiar with the place there. How much does it cost for food and accommodation?"

Zhang Jiaqiang took a step forward and separated the mother and daughter, "Why did you transfer to another school? The teaching quality here is not good, or are there people bullying you?"

When Erya saw her mother being blocked by her cousin, she was worried and couldn't get over. She felt relieved and finally dared to speak freely.

"Here, my mother forced me and Er Dou from the village chief's family to have sex with each other. Er Dou even went to school, and the teachers and classmates all pointed at me. I, I feel embarrassed!"

"Damn it, I'm doing this for your own good. Our family is like this and you can't afford to go to college. Why not marry Er Dou as soon as possible, who is popular and drinks hot food, and the family can benefit from it!"

Erya screamed, hugged her grandma and started crying.

The old lady felt extremely distressed. She stroked her granddaughter's hair and said, "Good boy, grandma helps you go to school. Grandma can also go to the mountains to dig herbs. If you can't afford it, go borrow it from relatives. Don't cry, kid!"

Wang Xuemin patted Erya's back gently, "Come to my sister-in-law's house, I can afford to support you!"

Zhang Jiaqiang turned around and looked at Er Jinzi solemnly, and spoke word by word.

"As long as Erya wants to go to school, I will be responsible for it. College, postgraduate entrance examination, PhD study, and even studying abroad are all mine!"

"You are my elder. I can't say unpleasant words. If you let me know again that you forced Erya to fight with that virgin, don't blame me for turning against you and denying your relationship!"

Er Jinzi was so frightened by his expression that he took a few steps back, then recovered, smiled contemptuously, and said with a curl of his lips.

"Hey, Jia Qiang, you have been lucky for two days. You have two stinky money in your pocket and you don't know your last name. He is the son of the village chief. You can be considered a householder worth ten thousand yuan at most. In other people's eyes, you are nothing. No, why don’t you go to college or go abroad? If someone comes, they will kill you with just a finger!"

Zhang Jiaqiang smiled and said, "I won't talk to you about marriage laws because you don't understand. Let me tell you, his father can't be the village chief for the rest of his life. He might be taken down in the next two days. You are just a precious daughter, so don't overwhelm him." Wrong treasure!"

Er Jinzi's face changed, and there was a sense of fear in her heart, but she still gritted her teeth and said.

"My daughter, I have the final say. Even if I marry her to a consumptive old man, I will be happy with it. None of you can mess with it!"

Zhang Jiaqiang knew that it was best not to reason with such unreasonable people. Anyway, Erya was going to help, and the village chief was done.

He ignored Er Jinzi and turned around, urging Tie Zhu and the others to go back quickly.

A group of people had just gone out, and a large group of people came in from outside the courtyard.

"Mom, do we have relatives coming to our house?"

A man in his fifties led five or six men and women into the courtyard.

The old lady was furious and said angrily, "It's your nephew here. You're just in time. Please help make dumplings!"

Zhang Jiaqiang recognized that the people coming were his uncle Wang Xuenong's family, so he hurriedly came forward to say hello, and introduced his relatives to his wife one by one.

This is the eldest uncle, eldest sister-in-law, eldest cousin, eldest cousin..."

Ye Xiumei greeted everyone with a smile on her face and greeted everyone with a big red envelope when she met a child. She immediately won the welcome of the whole family.

The little girl barked like a spirit when meeting people, making them smile from ear to ear.

When Er Jinzi saw this scene, she stamped her feet in anger. She didn't even go back to the house to sleep. She turned around and walked out of the courtyard gate, walking along the dirt road.

The strong aroma of fresh flour mixed with vegetables, meat, and condiments floats over the yard.

The family had been busy for a long time and finally had dumplings with thin skin and big fillings. The courtyard was filled with cheerful laughter.

Even Erya, who had been depressed all the time, had a smile on her face.

Er Jinzi wandered around for a long time, looking for a confidant to talk to about her depression, but it was dinner time and every house was closed.

She had nowhere to go and continued to roam the village like a homeless wild dog.

"Mother-in-law, haha, where is my little wife?"

When Er Jinzi heard the sound, she suddenly showed surprise. She turned around and said with a smile on her face, "Hey, Er Dou, why did you get all the water and take a shower?"
