With a Door In Mind

It is estimated that the yard is too busy.

A figure came to the door, it was Aunt Liu next door.

"Oh, this is Xiaohe's return!"

Zhou Xiaohe greeted with a smile, "Yeah, Aunt Liu, it's been a few years since I haven't been back, so I took a family leave!"

Aunt Liu looked Xiaohe up and down, and tutted, "Oh, I haven't seen you for a few years, and you've become a big guy! After working for so long, have you ever been an official?"

Zhou Xiaohe smiled with his face unchanged, "Oh, where do you want to be a high-ranking official, just a big leader."

Aunt Liu nodded when she heard the words, "Hey, it's not bad to be a soldier, you are lucky, if it wasn't for Xie Fangjun to enroll in your school, you wouldn't be able to get this benefit!"

This sentence is not wrong.

When one is in the army, the whole family is honored!

Unless there is a special period, the indicators of being a soldier this year are very tight.

Not everyone can get in.

Especially in rural areas, ordinary communes do not necessarily have an index every year.

After Aunt Liu finished speaking, she sighed, "If the third child of my family hadn't hired a worker at a non-staple food station, I would have let him go as a soldier. The salary is only more than thirty yuan a month."

Zhou Xiaochuan burst into laughter when he heard the words.

Aunt Liu has three children, and the eldest has long been working.

The second and the third were sent to the countryside, leaving one of the third, and the other assigned to the non-staple food station.

So life is pretty good.

Everyone in the neighborhood knows the guy who works at the grocery station in his house.

You can usually get a lot of good stuff.

Whenever she meets anyone, she says that if she buys anything in the future, she will find her little son.

Yang Yuemei has talked to him many times.

Aunt Liu looked at so many books on the table and asked strangely, "What are you... doing?"

Zhou Xiaochuan smiled and told the reason.

After listening, Aunt Liu nodded, "Well, that's a good thing! Then you get it, it's going to be New Year's Eve soon. Tell your aunt if you need anything, and the aunt who can help you can get it for you."

After saying that, he said hello and left.

Seeing the back of the other party leaving, the Zhou Xiaochuan brothers looked at each other and smiled, but said nothing.

Those who don't need tickets can buy them themselves.

After all, the provincial capital is no better than the small commune in the north.

It's no use looking for her if you need a ticket, and it's impossible for the other party to help him issue this ticket!

But this New Year's Eve is indeed a special time.

There is a person inside, some things are in short supply, and they can help keep some.

And Zhou Xiaomi, who had never spoken, pouted.

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan tapped her on the head. "What's your expression like?"

The little guy rubbed his knocked head, "Brother, why are you knocking me again! This person hates me to death. When you're not around, she always comes over at night. Just say how good her three sons are!"

Zhou Xiaochuan was stunned when he heard her words, and then hesitated for a while.

The other party's third son is sixteen years old this year, and he is seventeen years old.

He is only three years older than Zhou Xiaomi.

Wouldn't this be the idea of ​​hitting the little guy?

After thinking about it, it's really not impossible, who made the little girl look good and tall.

Thinking of this, he sneered for a while.

Think more!

The other party's flamboyant temperament didn't disgust him much, at most it was a little disgusting.

This is also human nature.

Whose son is promising, he doesn't talk about it all day long!

But if you really want to play the little guy's idea, don't even think about it.

I do not know how it is.

Thinking of this, he felt a little angry.

But looking back at Xiaomi's childish face, he smiled.

I wonder if this is too early.

Seeing Zhou Xiaochuan in a daze, Xiaomi tilted his head and asked, "Brother, are you stupid?"

When he was done, he hurriedly covered his head.

To prevent Zhou Xiaochuan from hitting her again.

Zhou Xiaochuan burst into laughter when he heard the words, no, a little guy like this can't get married under the age of 25.

wrong.

There is his spatial spring.

Even if the little guy is in his 30s, he must look only in his twenties.

Do you want to marry again in your thirties?

After all the children who came to exchange books left, Zhou Xiaochuan handed Xiaohe a bathing ticket.

Let him go to the bathroom to take a bath.

And he went to the kitchen to cook.

This family reunion, how to get something delicious.

When Xiaohe came back, his meal was just finished.

Steamed pork, braised shrimp, braised large yellow croaker, seafood soup!

There is also a freshly baked sliced ​​skin roast duck.

There are not many kinds of dishes, but they are all large and filling.

"mother!"

At this time, Yang Yuemei also came back from get off work, and she was stunned when she heard the screams in the house.

When I saw that there was one more person in the house.

With a look of excitement, he walked quickly to Zhou Xiaohe's side, "Oh, Xiaohe, you are finally back. Why did you come back?"

When he spoke, he touched Xiaohe's face and arms with excitement.

Then I wanted to fight something, and hurriedly asked: "Has your injury healed? Show your mother quickly."

As he spoke, tears streamed down.

Zhou Xiaohe hurriedly comforted: "Mother, it's long been healed! It's been so long that it's okay!"

"Then show me the wound."

"Mother, I'm wearing thick pants, what do you think! And it's still on my thighs!"

Yang Yuemei wiped away her tears and scolded with a smile, "Little bastard, what's wrong with your mother!"

Zhou Xiaohe smiled bitterly when he heard the words, "Mother, everything is fine, there's nothing to see!"

Hearing Zhou Xiaohe's words, Yang Yuemei looked at her two sons.

Then sighed.

The boys are all grown up!

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan could only persuade, "Mother, it's alright, stop talking, Xiaohe hasn't eaten since he came back. Hurry up and eat! The dishes will be cold for a while."

Hearing that his son hadn't eaten, he hurriedly said, "Oh, hurry up and eat! You guys are serious, don't you know to eat first? Just leave some for me!"

Before he could sit at the table, he began to nag.

Several people started to eat.

While eating, Yang Yuemei asked about his situation.

Zhou Xiaochuan wanted to get Aunt Liu during the day.

I wanted to ask, seeing the little guy here, he didn't have the nerve to say it.

A late meal.

After dinner, Yang Yuemei was generous and set the two large coal stoves on fire.

As for Zhou Xiaochuan's side, naturally he doesn't need it.

In fact, this stove is also used during the day at home.

At night the effect is much less.

Seeing this coal, he thought that the time he had agreed with Fatty Wang had arrived.

Say hello and go out the door.

Several other people were not surprised that Zhou Xiaochuan often ran out at night like this.

Came to the place, did not care about other people around.

Pulling the scooter directly to Fatty Wang's side.

This scooter is still the one I bought from He Lao before. It has an iron structure and the tires are still car tires.

Seeing Zhou Xiaochuan coming over, the other party was also happy for a while, "Hey, I thought you weren't coming today!"

"Everything has been said, how could it not come! What about things?"

Fatty Wang said in a low voice, "Come with me."

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan took him to a house.

Pushing open the room, I saw 5 large bags inside.

Fatty Wang pointed to the coal on the ground and said, "Everything is here, only 1,000 jin is a lot."

Zhou Xiaochuan took a look and confirmed that there was no problem, then he nodded.

"How much?"

Fatty Wang smiled, "The briquettes on the market cost 12 yuan and 1,000 jin. If you count the quantity of coal, it's 24 yuan."

Zhou Xiaochuan nodded when he heard the words.

A bit expensive.

Much more expensive than northern Shaanxi.

Mainly because there is a lot of use in winter here, and the supply is in short supply.

However, there is also Wang Fatzi's profit.

"Okay! Give me a hand and help me get my stuff into the car."

After speaking, he took out 24 yuan from his pocket.

Fatty Wang took the money and counted it, and said with a cheerful smile, "Hey, okay. I'll help you."

The two joined hands and put the coal on the car.

He tried to pull.

Very slow start.

But it's much better after moving, just like a car breaking down and pushing a car.

Fatty Wang watched Zhou Xiaochuan leave.

He happily returned to his side and continued to squat.

Zhou Xiaochuan pulled a distance, and when Fatty Wang left, he put his things in the space and rode away.

After walking for a while, he felt a little wet on his face.

Damn, it's raining.

No, it should be sleet.

Then hurriedly rode the car towards the house quickly, but don't get too big.

Halfway through, Zhou Xiaochuan suddenly stopped.

Because he was worried about meeting people, his thoughts were all activated.

It stopped because he found the situation in a room.

Or the basement.

Because at this time an old man in his fifties in the basement was listening to the radio.

It seems that the telegram should have just been sent.

Ready to close.

The other party carefully put the things into a box.

into a hole.

Then use a shovel to shovel the sweet potatoes in the basement to cover it.

Even if someone comes in, don't open the sweet potato.

Also hard to find anything.

After the other party is done, he climbs into the house.

At this time, there was a person, a woman and two children sleeping in the other's house.

"Why did you go, it took you so long?"

A female voice sounded.

The man said with a smile: "Oh, my stomach is a little uncomfortable, so I went to the thatched hut."

"Oh, go to sleep, it's time."

Hearing the woman's words, the man did not speak, he lifted the quilt and lay in.

Then fell asleep.

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan remembered this place.

Be sure to report it!

But he is not going to mix it up by himself, just throw the information to Zheng Bing tomorrow.

Then he rode his car towards the house.

When he came to the vicinity of the house, he dodged into the space.

With a thought, he pulled the coal out of these bags and cleaned them all.

coal washing!

Only large particles of sub-coal are left.

Otherwise, the house will be full of ashes when it is burned. Such large particles will burn with only a small amount of ash.

After it's done.

Then he pulled the scooter back into the yard.

When I got home, the whole family was not asleep and was talking in the house.

Hearing the movement outside, Zhou Xiaohe and Yang Yuemei walked out.

Seeing several bags in the car, I was surprised for a while.

Zhou Xiaochuan whispered to Zhou Xiaohe, "Okay, don't look at it, it's snowing, help carry things to the kitchen!"

Zhou Xiaohe hurried over when he heard the words.

The two joined hands and carried the coal into the house.

After the two of them were done, Yang Yuemei asked with a strange expression, "Xiao Chuan, what did you do? So black is coal?"

Zhou Xiaochuan nodded when he heard the words, "Yeah, it's coal, mother, don't bear it anymore."

After Yang Yuemei heard it, she snorted softly.

Quickly run some hot water to wash the two of them.

Zhou Xiaochuan pretended to go out and returned the car.

He came back after a while.

Hot water was already placed in the basin on the washstand.

Zhou Xiaochuan washed his hands, thinking that Xiaomi was asleep, he asked Yang Yuemei.

Hearing his words, Yang Yuemei thought for a while, "I didn't say it, hasn't she always been so showy?"

After speaking, she came to her senses, "Don't say it, you seem to have a little bit of meaning when you say it like this. She sees Xiaomi complimenting constantly. She keeps asking about Xiaomi's work."

Zhou Xiaochuan nodded when he heard the words.

It is estimated that the other party wants to get his son a dual-career daughter-in-law.

Families with dual workers these days, don't live too comfortably!

Xiaomi may still be just in her consideration.

Zhou Xiaochuan shook his head and laughed.

What's the matter!

Zhou Xiaochuan smiled next to him, "Mother, next time she asks, you can say that Xiaohe is now at the deputy company level, with a 20th-level salary and 72 yuan a month."

Zhou Xiaohe was speechless for a while, "Brother, why are you showing me off? Don't you always hate this?"

Yang Yuemei was surprised when she heard the words, "Yeah! Didn't you let me say it?"

Zhou Xiaochuan rolled his eyes at Xiaohe, "Look at your squeamish look, it's not me showing off, just saying if someone asks, mother just tell the truth."

His previous thought was not to be so ostentatious.

But after thinking about it, the nature of Xiaohe is different after all, and it will only be good for the family if it spreads out.

After all, it's a form of protection.

Yang Yuemei and Zhou Xiaohe's salary are 100 yuan a month.

It is also more convenient to buy something at home.

Yang Yuemei nodded and yawned, feeling a little sleepy.

"Okay! I'm going to bed. I have to go to work tomorrow!"

After saying that, I said hello and went back.

Upon seeing this, the two brothers also returned to their rooms.

Lying in bed.

Zhou Xiaochuan thought about the person he saw tonight, and thought about telling Zheng Bing about it tomorrow.

The snow outside was getting heavier and heavier.

The next morning.

When he got up, Xiaohe and Xiaomi were already up.

Xiaohe is building a snowman in the yard with the little guy.

Zhou Xiaochuan glanced at it, it snowed a lot last night! At least it has a thickness of more than 20 cm.

The outside world is all wrapped in silver.

It was white and almost no other color could be seen.

"Brother, come and help!"

Millet was busy with the shovel, completely ignoring the little red hands that were already cold.

Seeing Zhou Xiaochuan come out, he hurriedly shouted.

He ignored her, and after returning to the room to wash up, he came over.

"It's different when you become a soldier! It's so early to get up!"

Zhou Xiaohe turned around and smiled while helping the little guy build a snowman.

Zhou Xiaochuan nodded when he heard the words, and looked around.

Without going to help, he picked up the shovel and started to make it beside him.

"Oh, brother, what are you doing! Come and help!"

Xiaomi is there complaining.

"You play yours, I play mine!"

Don't care about the little guy.

Hearing this, the other party pouted and continued to make his own snowman.

Zhou Xiaochuan saw that the snow was quite heavy and tried to get a slide.

But when it's half busy.

An uninvited guest arrives.

Zheng Bing!

"Is this Zhou Xiaochuan's house?"

The other party shouted at the door.

Zhou Xiaochuan looked at Zheng Bing standing at the door with a strange look.

Could it be that the spy was caught in his own home?

Under suspicion, he put the shovel in his hand aside. He smiled at Zheng Bing, "Director Zheng, why do you have time to come here! Rare visitor!"

Zheng Bing looked at Zhou Xiaochuan, and then he reacted, "Oh, it's your kid! I thought who it was!"

Zhou Xiaochuan smiled when he heard the words, "Yeah! You probably forgot! Is there anything? It's cold outside, let's talk about it in the house!"

Although both of their own affairs were handled by the other party.

But after all, people are very busy people, and they handle so many things, how can they remember so many people clearly.

Zheng Bing nodded, "Okay! I have important business with you."

After speaking, he looked at the two Xiaohe who were playing next to him.

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan said to Zhou Xiaohe: "Xiaohe, Director Zheng and I have something to say, you bring Xiaomi to play in the yard."

Xiaohe heard what he meant and nodded.

"Director Zheng, you sit first."

After taking Zheng Bing into the main room, he went to make tea.

Zheng Bing took off the flocked hat on his head and looked around, "Oh, it's so warm in your room!"

"Director Zheng, drink tea to warm up!"

Zhou Xiaochuan smiled and put the teacup on the table. Then sat next to him.

Zheng Bing took the teacup and thanked him.

"Oh, good stuff!"

After speaking, the other party took a sip of tea! He praised again, "Well, it's really good tea!"

Zhou Xiaochuan smiled when he heard the words, "Director Zheng, don't you come here just to say that the tea is good!"

Hearing Zhou Xiaochuan's words, Zheng Bing glanced outside.

Then he put down the teacup and said with a serious face: "Comrade Zhou Xiaochuan, I have important business to come to you today, I hope you can help!"

Zhou Xiaochuan was surprised when he heard the words.

Neither of the two intersected, how could he help!

However, he still said politely, "Director Zheng, if you have anything to do, just say it, and I will try my best to help if I can!"

"Okay, but I can't let others know about this matter. I was going to let you talk about it."

Zhou Xiaochuan nodded when he heard the words and did not speak, but listened quietly.

Seeing his expression, Zheng Bing continued: "I want you to help me catch the spy!"

This next week Xiaochuan was really surprised.

Did you throw the note that day and expose it?

impossible!

A few dozen meters away?

And after losing it, he ran away on a bike!

He couldn't figure it out, so he asked directly, "Director Zheng, what are you joking about? What ability do I have to catch the spy! I don't know where the spy is!"

Zheng Bing smiled when he heard the words, "Don't be humble, I heard that you have a talent. Your hearing is very good, and you can hear very slight movements."

Zhou Xiaochuan was puzzled for a while.

Hearing this, he understood what was going on.

Instead of answering him, he asked instead, "Director Zheng, how did you know?"

This ability of my own has only been revealed in the textile factory.

Who told him that!

Feeling Zhou Xiaochuan's doubts, Zheng Bing did not explain, but said to him.

"I'll flick the glass a few times, you can try to hear it a few times."

Zhou Xiaochuan hesitated for a moment, then nodded. Anyway, his ability was not a secret in the textile factory.

Zheng Bing saw this and came to a distance.

Carrying Zhou Xiaochuan on his back, he lightly flicked the white porcelain cup in his hand.

The sound is high and low.

It is barely audible when high, and inaudible when low.

After knocking, he turned his head and asked, "How many times did you just play?"

Zhou Xiaochuan smiled, "11 times!"

Hearing his words, Zheng Bing was shocked.

To know a few of them, he hardly exerted any strength!

Then he said excitedly: "Amazing! It's amazing, there is hope now! We are short of people like you!"

Zhou Xiaochuan didn't talk to him when he heard the words, but just looked at him like this.

Zheng Bing only reacted when he saw his expression, and said with a smile, "Zhang Ping, Deputy Director Zhang. He recommended me to come."

Zhou Xiaochuan understood.

Zhang Ping has been there for so long, and he has already found out his details.

The stunt of his own fame.

The other party is naturally clear.

Then he thought of something and said to him: "You mean to let me hear the voice of the telegram, don't you?"

Zheng Bing nodded when he heard the words.

Zhou Xiaochuan frowned and thought for a moment, then slowly said: "Zheng Suo, it's not that I don't help, the question is how to help! In such a large provincial capital, I can't go door-to-door to listen, and you all know When does the other party send the telegram? Day? Night? What time is it in the evening? If you can be sure, it must be a telegram to transmit the message?"

This isn't bullshit.

He can find the radio station, but how to find it, this requires a good logic.

Otherwise, find something for yourself.

He would rather find out and tell each other secretly.

And not everyone is sending telegrams. Those who do this must be walking on multiple legs!

Those who do not have a radio station are even more difficult to find when they are hidden!

Even if you can hear and see it yourself, others are not doing it all day long!

The news was passed, and immediately it was a normal life again.

Finding a needle in a haystack is not an exaggeration at all.

Hearing his words, Zheng Bing fell into deep thought.

What Zhou Xiaochuan said was also correct, otherwise he would have been busy for so long and would not have made no progress at all.

The chat fell into an awkward place in an instant.

Zhou Xiaochuan didn't bother, looked at Zhou Xiaohe outside, and had an idea in his mind.

If the spy is caught, I don't know if it will be beneficial to Xiaohe in the army.

At that time, these will all be recorded in the file!

At this time, Zheng Bing came back to his senses and sighed, and said helplessly: "Try it! If you can't find it, forget it. Whether it is successful or not, the people will thank you!"

Anyway, give it a try!

Zhou Xiaochuan rolled his eyes when he heard this.

Then he said to him: "Yes, yes, but I have a request."

"you say!"

"If I really catch it, I want to take this credit to my brother!"

Zheng Bing frowned when he heard the words, "Your brother didn't participate, isn't this cheating?"

Zhou Xiaochuan smiled when he saw this. "Director Zheng, it's not a matter of one or two days to arrest someone. I can't go to your office all day long! I can only act alone. I usually take my sister out to play with a little attention."

"And sometimes I have to go out at night. How dangerous is this black light. My brother is a soldier and protects my safety. Isn't this participation?"

Zheng Bing thought for a while after hearing the words, he originally wanted people to follow him.

But Zhou Xiaochuan was only helping after all, so he could only nod his head. : "Okay, as long as you can find it, as long as you participate, it will be counted as a share, okay!"

That's more or less.

But others didn't get involved either.

Xiaomi can't do that! Otherwise, it would be nice to get one for the little guy.

"Okay, I see, you can give me a certificate, so don't get caught in the middle of the night as a special one."

Zheng Bing nodded when he heard the words.

"Okay, I'll go to the office right away to give you a certificate."

After the other party finished speaking, he left in a hurry.

Zhou Xiaochuan smiled at the back of the other party who was anxious to leave, guessing that this guy was under too much pressure.

Otherwise, you won't be in such a hurry.

"Brother, what's the matter!"

Xiaohe asked him a question.

Zhou Xiaochuan shook his head, "Tell you at night!"

After that, he continued to play his slide.

Zhou Xiaohe snorted softly when he heard the words.
