In the courtyard of the No. 1 coal mine factory in Beijing, there are very few people walking around in the tube building during the day.
The innermost household on the second floor was having a lively quarrel at the moment. People passing by downstairs looked up from time to time and listened to the content of the quarrel.
"I'm not going! Let Shen Man go! Why should I go?" A little girl of eighteen or nineteen had anger on her face, her face was red with excitement, and she wanted 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 it was useless to be angry, so she persuaded her daughter earnestly, "Shen Man has just graduated. You are my sister. You were the one who originally came to talk with the Educated Youth Office."
It was when the educated youth went to the countryside, and the Educated Youth Office had already consulted with their family several times.
Originally, the name of Shen Yu, the second eldest son of the Shen family, was on the list. The eldest, Shen Peng, was married, had a family, and had a job, so there was no need to go to the countryside.
Currently, there are only two sisters, Shen Yu and Shen Man, both of whom graduated from high school and have no jobs.
Shen Yu has been at home since she graduated last year, and then the Educated Youth Office came to communicate with her.
Until Shen Man graduated this year, he had not yet gone to the countryside.
Hearing what Shen's mother said, Shen Yu became even more angry, "Why me? Didn't Shen Man graduate this year? Mom! Even if you are partial, you must have a limit!"
"What are you talking about!" Shen's father, Shen Zhengxin, slammed the table.
No one in the whole room spoke. No matter how dissatisfied Shen Yu was, she did not dare to offend the angry Father Shen.
Because Shen Zhengxin would hit anyone no matter who he was when he was angry.
"Who has favored me and your mother over the years?" Shen Zhengxin looked at the second child and continued: "You bought new clothes and your sister also has them. The New Year's money and the usual pocket money are the same."
"Even Shen Man will give you what you want. Am I partial? You just say it casually without thinking about it yourself?"
Hearing this, Shen Yu couldn't say a word. Yes, the two sisters were the same, but she didn't want to go to the countryside!
A classmate wrote to her in the past and told her that it was very tiring there and that she worked in the fields all day long and mingled with the farmers.
When she thought of this, she felt desperate.
Therefore, going to the countryside is absolutely impossible!
Seeing that she didn't speak, the Shen family understood what she was thinking.
But in order not to be biased, I decided who to send to the countryside based on who the Educated Youth Affairs Office asked.
Isn't Shen Yu just cheating by doing this now?
Just when the atmosphere in the room dropped to freezing point, the door that had been closed was opened.
A girl of about eighteen years old walked 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 a different emotion.
Hearing this, Shen Zhengxin pursed his lips and couldn't say a word.
But Shen Yu didn't care about others. She immediately said happily: "Mom, you heard it, she said she would go!"
"Great, I don't have to go to the countryside anymore!"
Looking at Shen Yu jumping up and down, the others had different expressions.
Shen Man didn't feel anything at all, but felt a sense of relief...
Thinking of the injustice this body has suffered before, it would be better to go to the countryside.
She is no longer the original Shen Man, but the Shen Man of another time and space.
Before he had time to think about it, Shen Zhengxin spoke, "Xiaoman, have you thought about it?"
"This is no joke. You don't know when you will come back when you go to the countryside. And going to the countryside is not like our home, and the conditions there are even worse."
Some things still need to be clarified, because the child at home has been reluctant to go to the countryside, and the leaders have talked to him, saying that his consciousness is not high.
If it can be decided as soon as possible, then hurry up.
Shen Yu on the side became even more anxious when he heard this, "It's even worse to let me go. You still say it's not partiality!"
Hearing this, Shen Man wanted to laugh even more. After delaying going for so long, why not wait for the original owner to go on his own initiative?
But she didn't say anything. The original owner was just a dull gourd, and if he said too much, it would arouse their suspicion.
She nodded and said, "I have decided, but I have a request."
Shen Zhengxin glared at Shen Yu, with a hint of hatred in his eyes.
"Say it." Shen Zhengxin did not agree immediately.
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 pants and cotton shoes, as well as the gray cashmere jacket I bought for my second sister!"
"What?!" Shen Yu's face changed on the spot, "You..."
Before she could finish speaking, Shen Zhengxin looked at her coldly and said, "How about you go to the countryside?"
He didn't care who the clothes were given to, as long as he decided who would go to the countryside. Shen Yu didn't want to go, didn't want to give anything to his sister, and didn't want to think about it.
As long as the person is sent away first, what does a piece of clothing mean?
These words completely pinched Shen Yu's lifeblood.
One piece of clothing and 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 and go for himself! Otherwise, what will happen in the future?
Thinking of this, Shen Yu glanced at the pale man opposite him unwillingly.
"Here you go!" She agreed angrily.
Huh, I don’t know what I’m doing in such nice clothes, but wearing good clothes and farming?
Shen Man didn't care about her expression and turned around and said: "Okay, the rest, Mom... you go to the Educated Youth Office and tell me, I will take a rest for the next two days before setting off."
This "Mom" call was particularly awkward, but thinking about the current situation, it couldn't have been more awkward for two days.
Seeing the door close, Mother Shen sighed helplessly.
"It doesn't give me any peace of mind every day!" She was angry with Shen Yu and felt sorry for her child.
Compared to Shen Man, who is a boring gourd, she still likes Shen Yu. At least she is sweeter and can say nice things, unlike a little girl who knows how to lower her head and makes her feel upset just looking at him.
But now that Zheng Ce is the one, no one can help but listen.
Shen Zhengxin looked at the clock on the cabinet, stood up and said, "I'm going to work."
Today the matter has been settled. No matter who goes to the countryside, it has nothing to do with him.
Because in his heart, the most important thing is his son and grandson. He can love his daughter, but it also depends on the situation.
But he was still happy after he agreed, especially since this boring girl 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 her something else? I spent so much money and I haven't worn it yet. .”
She hasn't worn the new clothes yet. Autumn is about to come, and it's time to wear thicker clothes.
I don’t know why this damn girl is so crazy that she insists on grabbing clothes from me!
I used to seem quite honest, but I didn’t expect that he was a black-hearted person! I guess he has been thinking about his good things for a long time, huh!
And that dress cost 18 yuan. It took a long time for my family to agree to buy it, and I also used the pocket money I saved for a year.
