"Dear leaders, if my wife doesn't go, I naturally won't be transferred to the capital to work. However, I can go to the capital to be with my son. It doesn't matter even if I quit my current job."
Xu Wenxiu also spoke.
Xu Wenxiu doesn't like to talk much, but she loves her son no less than Liu Donglai. She knows that her son is her hope. In order to take good care of her son, what does it matter if she loses her job?
Qian Feng and Zhou De were a little embarrassed when the two expressed their opinions. They thought they would accept the news happily, but the result was unexpected, and what Liu Donglai said moved them very much.
"That's it! Yeah!"
The two of them had some difficulties.
"Director Qian, Director Zhou, I have an idea, I don't know whether to say it or not!"
The mayor of Fucheng City on the side said.
"Oh, what can I do?"
"I think this way, Liu Donglai and his wife don't need to be transferred to the capital. But if they go with Liu Lang, we in Fucheng will be their backing. Every month's salary will be sent to where they live on time to ensure the livelihood of their family of three.
, so that they can not only take good care of Liu Lang, but also have a living wage without causing trouble to the country, killing three birds with one stone, what do you two think?"
"Well, Donglai, what do you and your wife think?"
Zhou De asked Liu Donglai and his wife for their opinions.
"It's not okay to not work and still get paid!"
Liu Donglai waved his hands repeatedly.
"Donglai, your job now is to take good care of your son so that he can study with peace of mind and contribute to the country in the future. If the training is successful, what is your salary?"
The secretary of Fucheng City said loudly.
"That's right, Director Zhou and Director Qian, Dong Lai is a filial son. We must respect his opinions. Isn't it the state's job to solve Liu Lang's worries? This is easy to handle. Comrades from the Organization Department are here. Minister Li
, you go and arrange immediately to transfer Comrade Wenxiu from the machine tool factory.
When he comes to your department, the salary level will be based on the deputy section level. Comrade Donglai is currently at the deputy section level. We are considering promoting him. The salary level will reach the full section level by then. In this way, Liu Lang's salary in the capital will be
Life will be problem-free."
The mayor said from the sidelines at this time.
For ordinary people, changing jobs is a big deal, let alone getting promoted, but for these people here, it is really not a big deal, let alone this era, even in the next twenty or thirty years, various systems
If everyone is healthy, it won't be a problem at all if the secretary or mayor speaks.
Everyone can see that Liu Lang is a child prodigy with an unlimited future, so the secretary and the mayor want to keep Liu Lang's family in Fucheng. Now Liu Donglai and Xu Wenxiu do not agree to move their family to the capital.
, they immediately expressed their opinions one after another.
"Donglai, Wenxiu, what do you think of this arrangement?"
Zhou De asked.
"This... this is naturally good, but...!"
Liu Donglai and Xu Wenxiu were both simple people, and they felt that it was not good to get paid for nothing.
"Donglai, don't have any scruples. Didn't the secretary just say that the task for you and your wife now is to take good care of Liu Lang? Okay, you two don't have to worry about this matter. Minister Li, we will have it within three days."
Let’s settle all the affairs of the couple, you know?”
The mayor issued the order on the spot.
"Don't worry, it won't take three days. I'll handle it myself after the meeting. It will be done the day after tomorrow at the latest."
The organization director of Fucheng replied.
"Well, you can do this. This time you and your wife will have no worries and can go to the capital to take care of Liu Lang with peace of mind. You and your wife will prepare immediately when you get back. We will set off together to the capital the day after tomorrow!"
"This bedding set has not been used yet, so I just took it out for use... This thermos has only been used for two months, and I have it with me... and this pillow, I have it with me...!"
Xu Wenxiu rummaged through the boxes and cabinets and dug out everything at home, wanting to take every item to the capital.
"Daughter-in-law, didn't the two division chiefs say that they have already found a place for their son to live, and there is nothing missing? We can't take these things with us!"
Liu Donglai piled Lao Gao's bags on the kang and his head hurt.
"This quilt was made by my mother stitch by stitch. It's warm and comfortable. No matter how nice the quilt is in the capital, it's not as good as this."
Xu Wenxiu shook his head.
"Then we can't carry so many! Look, we two can't lift such a high pile. We can't let the two division chiefs and Brother Dong help us carry it!"
"Oh, yes, what should I do...?"
Liu Lang's mother was worried about how much stuff to bring, while Liu Donglai called his brother and sister aside.
"Listen up, you guys. I'm afraid it will take more than a month for me to go out this time. At least I have to settle down Liu Lang and his son before I can come back. During this time, you guys have to take good care of mom and grandma. Mom
There are no problems now, mainly grandma, her teeth are not very good now, you have to make more porridge for her, and buy more pastries. There are food stamps in the drawer. Dongwei, don't fight for pastries with grandma.
But let grandma eat first, you know?"
Now the Liu family's living standard has been greatly improved. Liu Lang's aunt has worked for the Education Committee and is a Chinese teacher in an elementary school. Her monthly salary is more than 23 yuan. His second uncle and third uncle have also become full-time workers in the factory.
, the combined monthly salary exceeds fifty yuan, plus Liu Lang’s grandfather also earns thirty-five yuan a month, not counting Liu Lang.
The Donglai couple's total monthly income exceeds one hundred yuan. In the 1980s, this money was enough for the whole family to live a good life. Previously, Liu Lang's grandfather wanted his youngest son to graduate from junior high school.
As for working, the conditions at home are much better now, and there is no need for him to go out to work too early. As long as he works hard, he may be able to get into college in the future.
At home, apart from Liu Lang's grandfather, Liu Donglai has the most authority. Especially now, because of Liu Lang, the elder brother's words often carry more weight than his father's words.
"Brother, don't worry. Grandma and mom will be left to us. During the time you are gone, Dongbao, Hua Jin and I will live here and take care of grandma together."
Liu Lang's second uncle said.
"I live here too!"
Liu Lang's old uncle said loudly, Liu Lang's home is so nice! You can watch TV every day, who wouldn't want to live there?
"Dong Wei, dad asked you to study hard and take the college entrance examination in the future. You have to study hard these days. How can you study if you live here and watch TV every day? You should go live with your parents."
Liu Lang's second uncle glared and scolded him, saying that if his eldest brother is not here, he is the leader, and every brother and sister must listen to him.
"Yes, Dongwei, you should study hard and get into college in the future. Then our Liu family will be even more prosperous."
The eldest brother and the second brother both said this, and Liu Dongwei didn't dare to say anything more. He pouted and sulked to the side.
"Don't watch TV too late. Grandma goes to bed before 8:30 every day. You can't disturb her rest, you know?"
Liu Donglai took care of every detail and arranged everything clearly.
Liu Lang would have to leave Fucheng for at least half a year this time. The thing he was most reluctant to leave was his grandma. The grandma seemed to know that her grandson would be gone for a long time, so she held Liu Lang's hand and refused to let go.
.
"Tainai, you should eat more and rest more every day, and don't be angry all the time. I will go to the capital to go to school and will come back in a few months. When I grow up, you will also have to gain weight. Do you understand?"
Liu Lang touched Tai Nai's "rough" face and said as if talking to a child.
"Well, well, if my little grandson grows up, I won't be able to hold you!"
Tai Nai nodded and said.
"It doesn't matter. When I grow up, I will carry you to the capital and see Tiananmen!"
In the previous life, Tai Nai passed away in 1986, which is still three years away from now. However, Tai Nai's death was probably related to the injury he got when he pushed her to the ground. It would not have happened in this life without this accident.
, maybe my grandma can live for a few more years, and I will have more time to accompany her.
