He even hoped that one day, Zheng Juan would be able to recognize her biological parents and know who she really was, and her feelings for him would still be the same. That kind of love was the most worth looking forward to.

However, Lu Tian did not dare to think about when this day would come.

It is now 1968, and for at least ten years, it will be impossible to contact Zheng Juan's parents through normal channels.

If Zheng Juan's parents cannot be contacted, Zheng Juan will not be able to recognize her biological parents, and she cannot let it go like this.

I remembered that when my father filled in his age for me, he filled it out according to the date he found me in November 1948. I still had almost a year before I reached the legal age for marriage.

During this year, we must do everything possible to contact Zheng Juan's parents. No matter whether Zheng Juan leaves her biological parents or not, she cannot be allowed to follow him without knowing it.

If there is really no way to contact her parents in this year, just live a down-to-earth life with Zheng Juan and take care of her for the rest of her life.

Once I figured it out, I felt relieved.

However, maybe because she paid too much attention to Zhou Rong, Zheng Juan was a little lukewarm towards Lu Tian.

Lu Tian knew the reason and didn't bother to explain it.

Some things become darker and darker. Once they pass, they will pass.

Today is the Lunar New Year, and the candied haws on a stick are selling very well. Before four o'clock, more than a hundred bunches of candied haws on a stick were sold out.

Listening to the sound of firecrackers ringing in the distance and nearby, Lu Tian said: "Juanzi, I'm going to the market to buy some firecrackers, and we'll set them off at night."

"Brother Lu, we sold more than five yuan today. I'll buy the firecrackers. You don't have to pay for them." Zheng Juan stopped Lu Tian and said.

"No, I have no place to spend the salary I just received yesterday. It's not bad." With that said, Lu Tian entered the small market alone.

After a while, he walked out with a bag of firecrackers.

After dinner, Lu Tian took Zheng Guangming to the yard to set off firecrackers.

Zheng Guangming couldn't see it, but he could hear it.

For this reason, Lu Tian bought all the loud firecrackers. He also wanted Zheng Guangming to feel the New Year atmosphere.

After two kicks, flash thunder, and a small whip, Zheng Guangming, who was hiding in the door, was particularly excited. He pulled Lu Tian's sleeves and said:

"Brother Lu Tian, ​​the sound of firecrackers is so nice. This is the first time I have set off firecrackers at home since I have grown up."

Lu Tian patted Zheng Guangming's face and said, "Guangming, as long as Brother Lu Tian is here, we will set off firecrackers every year in our house."

"That's great." Zheng Guangming seemed to have remembered something and rolled his eyes upward, "Brother Lu Tian, ​​I think my sister likes you quite a lot. You two should be in a relationship."

Lu Tian's heart moved, "Guangming, you can't see it with your eyes, how do you know your sister likes me?"

Zheng Guangming was silent for a moment and whispered: "I can't see with my eyes, but I can hear people's heartbeats. Every time you come to my house, my sister's heartbeat is faster than usual. Only if you like someone, your heartbeat will be like this.

of."

After hearing Zheng Guangming's words, Lu Tian looked at the fireworks in the sky and couldn't help but long for his future with Zheng Juan.

After a while, Lu Tian touched Zheng Guangming's head and said, "Guangming, it's too cold. Let's go back to the house."

Since Lutian delivered large pieces of coal every day, the life of Zheng Juan's family has greatly improved. Winter in the Northeast is like this, and warmth is the first element of life.

Entering the house, Zheng's mother quickly got off the kang, sat on the edge of the kang and said to Lu Tian: "My dear, hurry up and get on the kang. Let's get warm at the head of the kang."

"No, aunt, I'm not cold. Guangming, you can get on the kang." Lu Tian pulled Zheng Guangming and said.

"Brother Lu Tian, ​​no need. It's warm at home now, and it's not cold at all on the ground."

"Xiaotian, this month, you have delivered coal every day, and the house is really warm. Even if there is some trouble during the day, people from the street always come to the house, and I don't dare to burn it for fear of being an eyesore." Zheng's mother said, twisting the beads.

"Mom, in a little more than a month, as soon as I stand upright, the weather will be warm.

Besides, don’t the streets also know about our family’s situation? Your health is not good, and your brother’s eyesight is bad. If I leave, won’t the family fall apart? I guess people from the street won’t be able to come to our house all the time in the future.” Zaikang

Zheng Juan, who was doing needlework on the bed, turned her head and said.

"Of course the street knows our family's situation.

But you and Guangming are both black households. Even if you don't go to the countryside, you won't be allowed to live in the city from now on.

Thinking about it now, you all blame me. If I had registered your household registration when Jichun was first liberated, you would no longer be a black household now." Zheng's mother sighed.

Lu Tian sat on the edge of the kang and asked Mother Zheng: "Auntie, when we were just liberated, why didn't you register your household registration for Juanzi?"

Zheng's mother stopped holding the prayer beads in her hand and said, "When we were just liberated, I was still a aunt in Jingci'an. I thought that Juanzi would be like me in the future, so I didn't think about registering for him.

Later, the government encouraged me to return to secular life, so I responded to the call and returned to secular life. The government also gave me such an adobe house.

But Juanzi was picked up, and I couldn’t tell her whereabouts. I was worried about checking Juanzi’s background, and I said she was three years younger. With repeated delays, Juanzi’s household registration has been declining.

Look now, you all blame me."

"Mom, how can I blame you? If you hadn't adopted me, I would be gone now.

Besides, if you don't declare me three years younger, I won't be checked every day." Zheng Juan got off the ground, sat next to Zheng's mother, and said softly.

"That's right. If you picked it up in 1948, you must be in trouble.

It’s just that you have always been a gangster and can’t even attend a serious class, so it’s not a big deal.” Zheng’s mother shook her head and said.

"Mom, if my sister marries a city man, wouldn't the household registration be settled?" Zheng Guangming pulled Lu Tian's sleeve intentionally or unintentionally and said.

Of course Lu Tian knew what Zheng Guangming meant by pulling his sleeve, but he didn't want to express his stance at this time.

It's not that I don't like Zheng Juan, but I think it would be better to establish a relationship after finding Zheng Juan's biological parents.

Seeing that Lu Tian did not express his position, Zheng Guangming said again: "Brother Lu Tian, ​​is your household registration settled now?"

"Well. Originally I was also a registered permanent resident, but this time my father was injured at work, so he settled my registered permanent residence.

In fact, if I had a choice, I would rather not have a household registration and let my dad continue to live."

"Yes, living is better than anything else. It's just that I'm useless, and my two children don't live a good life with me." Zheng's mother sighed.

Seeing that her mother was a little depressed, Zheng Juan held her arm and said, "Mom, as long as you live, there is no obstacle that you cannot overcome, and life can only get better and better.

You see, I sold candied haws for more than 5 yuan this afternoon, and I can earn 3 yuan. There is still a week before the Spring Festival, and during the Spring Festival, I will sell it on the streets. It will not be a problem to earn 30 or 40 yuan.

It’s enough to cover two months’ salary at work.”

"It's better to go to work, it's safer. After the Spring Festival, no one buys candied haws, so I can't make money. I can only make paper boxes at home." Zheng's mother shook her head.

"Mom, don't worry, there will always be a way."

After hearing the conversation between mother and daughter, Lu Tian interjected: "Auntie, don't worry, Juanzi is right, there is no obstacle in life that cannot be overcome.

I’ve thought of a way to make money and I’ll tell you about it.”
