As Zhaoxi's people started to make a fuss, Gu Zhaocheng's decision to not join the army was settled at home.
This matter was only because it was Gu Zhaocheng's own ideal that the whole family cared so much about it.
Gu Zhaocheng didn't care about it himself, and others didn't feel so uncomfortable.
For an ordinary family, the situation of being a soldier is not that serious.
Although being a soldier is a good way out, it is not the only way out.
As the list of layoffs from the forestry farm came down, so many people were laid off from the forestry farm. This small matter that Gu Zhaocheng did not recruit soldiers will soon be over.
Although Gu Changshan was not angry with Qin Yan for arranging honest people to be laid off, he added himself to the first list of layoffs.
But Lin Heng, deputy director of the Forestry Bureau, was the first to row Gu Changshan out.
It may be said that he took into account the difficulties of the Gu family, but in fact it was Gu Changshan who worked hard and became a provincial model worker. He was listed in front of many leaders in the city and earned himself the "gold medal to avoid death."
This kind of employee who has just earned face for the company is laid off immediately, which cannot be justified in any company.
It was not easy for Gu Changshan to get this honor. After a few years, without a net worth of one billion or tens of billions, it can be said that he has no chance of this honor.
Therefore, the people who were finally laid off did not follow Qin Yan's wishes, nor did they follow Gu Changshan's wishes.
People of all kinds, willing and unwilling, honest and cunning, young and old, have all been laid off.
It can be regarded as a list of comprehensive compromises from all parties.
Of course, those who are caught with pigtails will naturally be laid off.
Those people in the past were fighting openly and secretly, but it was not useless.
Liang Fukuan was tricked by his apprentice. He pushed his apprentice Liu Tiejun because of a provocation and quarrel, and was blackmailed by his apprentice.
The apprentice asked for nothing, as long as he made a mistake and Liang Fukuan, who "beat" his coworkers, was laid off.
Liang Fukuan and his apprentice Liu Tiejun lost the competition for the position of forest farm driver and were laid off without pay.
This fully shows that the master-disciple relationship in the forest farm is also quite fragile.
Gu Changshan was able to teach him how to cut wood because Song Liuxi was his master.
It’s really rare to help Song Liuxi take care of her in old age.
Of course, the most rare thing is Na Cun Hua. After all, Na Cun Hua is responsible for the daily service.
Some families are happy and some are sad. Although no one in the old Gu family has been laid off, Gu Changshan still temporarily stopped working at home.
"Dad, you don't have to work. I can take some time to chop wood."
After Gu Changshan had some free time at home, he wanted to compete with Gu Zhaocheng for work.
Housework is a lot or a lot less, but the main thing is the stove.
Cunhua did all the washing, lighting, and cooking on his own.
There is also Xiao Fengqin, who is following behind to grab jobs, and there is also competition.
The rest was to fetch water and cut firewood. There was a pressurized well in Lao Gu's yard. Fetching water meant pressing the water out of the well and carrying it to the water tank in the house.
This is not difficult. A tank of water can be used for many days in winter.
And since the water tank in the house was full, there was no need to do this work.
The only job of chopping wood is that it doesn't matter if you do too much, you can do it whenever you have free time.
Just chop up all the firewood piles saved at home.
"It's okay to stay at home. I'll do some exercise, otherwise I'll feel sick if I'm idle." Gu Changshan continued chopping firewood without stopping the ax in his hand.
"Dad, you're not feeling physically sick, but mentally. You didn't do anything sorry, yet you were reported to me just fine?"
Gu Zhaocheng stopped Gu Changshan because chopping firewood could not solve his depression.
Those who have never done it will feel relieved, but those who have done it will just numb themselves with labor.
Gu Zhaocheng chose to give Gu Changshan a finishing blow this time.
I still have to talk about this kind of thing, it's even more uncomfortable if I keep it to myself.
Gu Changshan felt that he treated everyone sincerely, but he was still stabbed in the back by his coworkers.
After the laid-off list came down, people who were dissatisfied with Gu Changshan reported him for corruption and bribery.
It's not too much trouble. What most people think is that Gu Changshan is too rich.
I will take care of the old people who are not taken care of in the forest farm, I will take care of the abandoned children that no one wants, and I will take care of the girls that the Liang family does not want.
It is inevitable that he will look a little too wealthy.
No matter how bad Gu Changshan is, he gives people the illusion that the Gu family is very rich.
"Zhaocheng, you have really grown up and understand everything." Gu Changshan smiled bitterly and sat down on the pile of firewood.
"Dad, you have tried your best to help those older uncles keep their jobs. This has already given you what you want. People outside can do whatever they want. After all, the forest farm is big.
Everyone has it, at least you have a clear conscience."
Not only were some individuals reported, but laid-off workers and their families also complained about Gu Changshan.
People who used to treat the Gu family warmly now not only treat the Gu family as invisible, but also stare at them in cold and violent ways.
There was a big gap between Gu Changshan, who was usually being called captain and shouted at enthusiastically all day long.
The remaining workers went to the mountains to work logging.
Everyone at home complained about Gu Changshan. Gu Changshan had almost no one to talk to, so he could only chop firewood at home.
"There's no need to comfort me. I'm an adult and can stand this."
Gu Changshan is quite traditional in this regard. He is very strong in front of his family and does not want to show his vulnerability.
It may be that Gu Zhaocheng, the eldest, is still incapable of doing anything.
Gu Changshan is the backbone of the family and must be strong, not weak.
"Okay, I won't comfort you anymore, and you don't want to compete with me for this bit of work.
If you are really bored, why not take this opportunity to take my mother to the city for two days? Anyway, you are going to the city to wait for the bureau's investigation results."
Gu Zhaocheng was going to arrange for the two of them to go shopping in the city.
A change of environment, a change of mood, although Gu Zhaocheng looked normal in the city, but for the people living in the mountains, Bianhe was already prosperous enough.
Not to mention seeing other things, it is also good to just stroll around and look at the high-rise buildings.
The world is too small to stay in the forest farm all day.
"How can we still have fun at this time?" Gu Changshan refused.
"It's not that long, and we haven't received anything. Reporting this is nothing. Suspension is just giving you a few days off. It's great to go out and have fun during this time. You can still stay here.
What does the forest farm do?
Dad, you also need to think about Mom, how long has he been at the forest farm without going out?"
It's a bit hard for Gu Changshan to take care of himself, but saving flowers for that is enough reason.
As the son of Na Cunhua, Gu Zhaocheng had always hoped that Gu Changshan would treat Na Cunhua better.
We can't just keep the flowers there. We have to guard this small area of the family area of the forest farm all year round. There are only a few children around the stove all day long.
"Does your mother want to go to the city?"
"Dad, look at what you said, among these people who stay in the forest farm all day long, which one doesn't want to change places and go to the city for a stroll?"
No matter how beautiful a place is, if you stay there for a long time, you will get tired of it and want to visit other places.
Gu Changshan still doesn't understand women. He may be nice to others, but to his wife, he can only be described as average.
The same forest farm worker, Xingjie's deceased father, took Xingjie's mother to eat, buy and play all over the country.
Na Cunhua has never even been to the city a few times.
Although Xingjie's mother, Huang Xiaoping, went outside, her heart also ran outside. It was not advisable to abandon her son and go out for a living.
But if possible, there is no problem in going out to see and travel more.
"I've neglected your mother a little bit!" Gu Changshan sighed.
"If you have neglected it, you must make up for it. It is not too late."
Gu Zhaocheng was determined to ask Gu Changshan to give some of his energy to the flower depositor.
Na Cunhua married to a mountain forest farm for Gu Zhaocheng, so Gu Zhaocheng had to help Na Cunhua and get some care.
He simply became Gu Changshan's vassal and helped Gu Changshan raise the children he picked up from everywhere.
This life is not worth it.
"Mom, my dad has been in a bad mood for the past two days. The people at the forest farm are not very kind to my dad. They always gossip and think that my dad is unlucky. Can you accompany him to the city to change his mood?"
After following what Gu Changshan said, Gu Zhaocheng went to the house again and found the flowers.
"What nonsense are you talking about, kid? How can I walk away from such a group of young and old at home?"
Na Cunhua said with a ladle in one hand and a ladle in the other.
Now in the old Gu family, only Cunhua is really doing housework.
Without Gu Changshan, the family just has no source of income.
Without those flowers, it can be said that everything in the house will be in chaos.
Others, like Song Liuxi, might be able to make do a little bit better, but probably only to the extent that people can eat it.
In Gu Zhaocheng's impression, he had never seen Song Liuxi cook.
"There's nothing I can't leave. It's just about cooking. I can figure it out. The main reason is that my dad has looked so decadent these days, which is really worrying."
"Can you really understand it?"
"Isn't it just making some cabbage vermicelli? There's nothing I can't do."
Gu Zhaocheng said confidently, "I haven't had a chance to cook for so many days, and I still feel a little itchy."
"Then I'll prepare some more bean buns for you. Then you can steam them and stir-fry them. I'll go out with your dad for two days?"
"Go, go, stay at the forest farm until my dad gets depressed again."
He used Na Cunhua to persuade Gu Changshan and Gu Changshan to persuade Na Cunhua. Gu Zhaocheng successfully persuaded the two of them to go to the city for two days.
"Zhaoxi, what do you think we go to my second aunt's house for dinner today?"
Gu Zhaocheng asked Gu Changshan and Na Cunhua to leave home.
Letting two people relax is one thing, but it is not just about letting two people relax.
I still want to deal with Feng Qin's problem myself.
Because Liang Fukuan was laid off from his job, the Liang family immediately lost control of Fengqin's support.
Kind people like Gu Changshan and his wife were too embarrassed to mention this matter when Liang Fukuan had just lost his job.
If this matter is not mentioned in black and white, it will be acquiesced.
Gu Zhaocheng definitely couldn't bear it, so he decided to continue to remind Aunt Ma.
"Brother, what are you thinking about? You want to go to your second aunt's house for dinner. Didn't you tell your parents that you would cook after they left?"
Even Zhaoxi had heard of the stinginess of Liang Fukuan and Ma Eryi.
It is impossible for ordinary people to go to Liang's house to have a meal.
The Gu family is unusual. Gu Changshan is the captain. Originally, there might be a little chance.
But now that Liang Fukuan has just been laid off and is righteous about the Gu family, how can he care about Gu Changshan?
The consequence of helping some people but not others is that everyone will be angry with Gu Changshan.
They all felt that if Gu Changshan could do his best for him, his job would be saved.
"I'm kidding you. I didn't want to go to Aunt Ma's house for dinner. I just wanted to ask Aunt Ma to come over and help us cook a meal."
If Feng Qin said he wanted to go to the Liang family, he might not even dare to go.
So, it's better to call someone over to take care of the family.
Second Aunt Ma forgot that she had a girl, and Gu Zhaocheng was ready to put Feng Qin in front of Second Aunt Ma.
"It's okay to call someone over."
"Okay, my parents are not at home today. Let me give you something good to eat. I will buy you some meat."
In the past, the Gu family could still eat meat every now and then.
After there were two more people in the family, the Gu family never bought meat on any special days.
If it was just a little cabbage and radish, Gu Zhaocheng wouldn't bother anyone.
It is better to buy some meat and some big bones so that Aunt Ma can cook.
"Second aunt, second aunt."
After going to the store to buy meat bones and vegetables and taking them home, Gu Zhaocheng came to the Liang family.
"Zhaocheng, why are you here?"
Second Aunt Ma asked in surprise.
He is also a social person and has no need for the Gu family. After Gu Zhaocheng came here empty-handed, he lost all enthusiasm for Gu Zhaocheng.
"Second aunt, my uncle didn't leave any family members?"
But there was no enthusiasm, and it was still polite to let Gu Zhaocheng enter the house on a very cold day.
Gu Zhaocheng asked after seeing that Aunt Ma was the only one at home.
"He, he is not at home. Since I was laid off, I have been playing mahjong every day."
There has always been a tradition of playing cards and mahjong in the forest farm.
There are no entertainment venues here, so if you want to have some leisure time, you have to entertain yourself.
Ten years ago, television might still have some appeal.
In this era, television is far less important to adults than playing cards and gambling.
"oh."
Gu Zhaocheng responded without expressing any opinion.
Whether Liang Fukuan plays mahjong or gambles money has nothing to do with the Gu family.
I just feel that compared to the busy life of the Gu family, the life of the Liang family is a little too comfortable.
After other people were laid off, they were eager to find jobs in the city and make money.
For a wealthy family like the Liang family, after losing their jobs, they don’t have to worry about not having food to eat. They have to have fun first.
Of course, this can be regarded as Liang Fukuan being too unpopular.
She is used to having fun, cheating and slipping, working in the forest farm, and Gu Changshan supervises her, so she can't delay her work.
After being laid off, if no one urges you, it’s just like letting the sheep go.
"Zhao Cheng, why don't you ask for your Uncle Liang? He should be playing in the field?"
Second Aunt Ma asked back. She had not realized what it would be like for Liang Fukuan to be obsessed with mahjong.
"I'm not looking for Uncle Liang, I'm just here to find you, Second Aunt. My parents have gone to the city for something, and there's no one to cook at home. I thought of you first, Second Aunt. This is an opportunity, great
If you have the opportunity, Second Aunt, you can come to our house to cook for us. Feng Qin won’t be able to avoid you this time."
