would like to express my heartfelt thanks to the friends who have given me suggestions along the way! I also express my deep apologies for missing everyone’s messages and sometimes not replying to them.
The next morning, Qiu Ya Niang got up to cook. Osmanthus fragrans couldn't smell the oil smoke, so she ran to the gate and sat down. Jian Changgui rode down the slope and immediately lowered his head. The last time he fought with 'Crazy Xu', it was a bit... Embarrassed to face Chang Gui.
But when Changgui arrived in front of her, he came to a sudden stop. Guihua looked up at him, a little surprised. Did Changgui specifically want to say hello to her?
Changgui didn't notice Guihua's expression and said straight to the point: "Guihua, tell your sister that there are policies from above and her affairs are arranged." Seeing Guihua's confused face,
explained: "It's about the martyrs' relatives. Let her be mentally prepared. I'll go to work first and talk about it later." After Changgui finished speaking, he hurriedly rode away. The goal was achieved. He wanted to tell Qiu Ya Niang yesterday, but she avoided it. You, tell Guihua first, and then Qiu Ya Niang will listen to you.
"What are you preparing for? Are you going to stifle yourself to death by saying this?" Guihua shouted towards Changgui's back.
"It's good news anyway!" Changgui turned around and left with a sentence.
Osmanthus fragrans ignored the smell of oil smoke, got up and rushed into the house, calling Qiu Yaniang: "Sister, sister, there is good news."
Qiu Yaniang was filling the stove with firewood, raised her head and asked: "What's going on? "Look at you, what are you doing?"
"Brother Changgui sent a letter just now, saying it was about the martyrs," Guihua's voice trembled with excitement.
"A martyrdom? My father? Oh! I should be a martyrdom, what?" Qiu Ya Niang was puzzled, and her mood did not change much.
"Brother Changgui said that there is a policy from above, and it seems to be arranged or something, oops! I can't explain clearly." Guihua was a little incoherent.
was anxious when he saw that his sister had no reaction, because he clearly felt that something was unusual from Changgui's tone, and he also said it was good news.
"Why are you so anxious? How can it be better? Could it be that my father is back alive? Apart from this, nothing else matters." Qiu Ya Niang remained calm.
"Let's wait until Brother Changgui! He said we'll elaborate more after work." Although Guihua was excited, she couldn't explain why, so she could only give up. In fact, Chang Gui himself didn't explain clearly. It was only then that Gui Hua noticed the smell of oil smoke and went outside the door and vomited.
Qiu Ya Niang finally woke up. It turned out that Chang Gui wanted to tell her about this yesterday. Although after hearing Gui Hua's words, her heart was filled with waves, but because the news came from Chang Gui, it was somewhat offset.
Maybe we should give out a certificate for excellence, and then hang a plaque at the door with the words " is the glorious home of " or something like that!
Just like now, having " five good families " posted on my door is just an honor. I have already passed that age. It's not like when I was a girl, I was obsessed with being a "Red Guard" and tried my best to perform just to wear that red sleeve band .
Qiu Ya Niang was worried. Although she didn’t take the ‘good news’ that Chang Gui said too seriously, it reminded her of her parents.
Put aside cooking for the time being. Qiu Ya will definitely finish her meal at her aunt's house and go to school, so she doesn't have to worry.
When my father passed away, I didn’t remember anything. Everything about him was later heard from my mother. My mother missed my father, and all she said was how good my father was, hardworking, kind, and good-tempered. , handsome.
Qiu Ya ran back to get her schoolbag to go to school, and it was time to pick up Qiu Sheng. Aunt Qiu Ya went to school when she needed to go to school, and went to work when she needed to go to work. She also had a lot of work.
...
It was almost noon, and we had just finished breakfast. Before the table was cleared, Wen Zhong came to pick up the sweet-scented osmanthus and told Qiu Ya Niang that he and Wen Yong had gotten up early to finish tilling the corn fields at her house next to the river. The land has not yet been harvested.
It is said that Wen Yong is about to get a wife, but he is a bit inexperienced. He has gained a lot of brute strength, but he is good at work. So far, no matchmaker has come to the door.
Osmanthus teased Wen Zhong: "Now, you don't have to be sneaky when helping with work!"
Wen Zhong was used to Osmanthus's naughty nature, so he let her say whatever she said and just looked at her dotingly.
Qiu Ya Niang felt a little sorry: "I can do the work in the fields slowly by myself, but I can't do it all on the second day in the future! Besides, the work is all done, why don't you bring Wen Yong with you? At least we can come home to eat." Let’s have a meal!”
said and smiled. How can anyone come to get their own meal? Let’s invite them someday!
Guihua was thinking about her sister's affairs, and Changgui also left a message to talk about it in detail after get off work, so she asked Wenzhong to go back first, and she wanted to stay overnight.
Dinner was finished early as usual. Although Qiu Ya Niang and Gui Hua didn't mention what Chang Gui said in the morning, they were waiting anxiously in their hearts. Osmanthus fragrans is looking forward to it, Qiu Ya Niang is uneasy.
The lights were already lit. Finally, when they heard the sound of the door, Qiu Ya Niang and Gui Hua raised their ears at the same time, hoping that it was Chang Gui. Qiu Ya Niang had never been so eager to see Chang Gui like now.
As expected, Changgui opened the door and entered the house, his steps a little hesitant, but the good news in his stomach still gave him courage.
Standing in the room, Changgui and Qiu Yaniang were a little overwhelmed. After a short silence, Guihua luckily chatted up with Changgui: "Brother Changgui, please repeat what you said this morning. It’s been a heart-wrenching day!”
Changgui said: “Xiulan, your father’s matter is now on the agenda. Since you are an orphan of a martyr, can you be assigned to work?” Eat public food?" Osmanthus exclaimed.
Qiu Ya Niang glanced at Gui Hua, Gui Hua understood, quickly closed her mouth, and then listened to Chang Gui.
"Yes, if you are willing, go to the commune recently and go to the Civil Affairs Bureau. This matter is under the control of our unit. The specific matters are still to be discussed."
Qiu Ya Niang was noncommittal because the news was too sudden and she couldn't react at the moment. Lai, his expression became dazed, and he didn't even hear what Chang Gui said later.
Until Osmanthus sent Changgui away and returned to the house, Qiu Ya Niang was still in a daze.
Guihua, however, had swept away her old sick appearance and was in high spirits. No, it should be said that she was ecstatic. She grabbed her sister's shoulders with both hands and shook her desperately: "Sister, you have had a good life and finally got through it!"
"What? Is it as evil as you said? I don't know a lot of Chinese characters, so what can I do?" Qiu Ya Niang woke up, not too surprised.
"What should we do? Why don't we go to town to see what's going on?" Guihua was already a little impatient.
"I'm not busy, let me think about it. My mind is too messy right now and I still can't figure it out." Qiu Ya Niang still spoke calmly.
"That's right. This happened too suddenly. You have to send a letter to my brother-in-law to discuss it, right?" Osmanthus fragrans thought it through quite well.
"Wait, please leave me alone." Qiu Ya Niang was a little impatient.
Osmanthus immediately stopped making noise.
......
Qiu Ya Niang didn't sleep all night, thinking about the news sent by Chang Gui over and over again. In fact, she couldn't think of any results, because it was just a few short words from Chang Gui, and many things were still unknown. .
Is this feeling because the person who told the news is Changgui? If it were another staff member or a village cadre, would it be a different feeling? After
has gone through all the hardships, he will not be too surprised when dawn comes quietly, because he is used to darkness.
Qiu Ya Niang pinched her face from time to time to see if it was an hallucination caused by dreams.
My father has been with me for less than two years, and I have walked the rest of the way by myself. Now, suddenly there is news that my life has to change because of my father. The interval is too long! I am temporarily Not acceptable yet.
No matter what, just like Osmanthus fragrans said, I have to go to town for a trip. My father’s spirit in heaven will also feel happy.Just go tomorrow, no, tomorrow is Sunday, and people will definitely not be working, so it’s just another day of stretching.
The next morning, Qiu Ya Niang looked tired. Guihua saw her sister's look and asked: "Sister, this is a good thing, but why can't you cheer up?"
"Oh! I have been thinking about it for a thousand years. After all, it was my father who sacrificed his life for the millet to become chaff." Qiu Ya Niang looked gloomy.
......
On Monday morning, Qiu Ya Niang got up early, cooked a cooked meal for the two children to finish, sent Qiu Ya to school, and then sent Qiu Sheng to her grandma's house. Gui Hua actually said that she would send it to her, but she thought Because of Osmanthus fragrans' health, it's better not to let Qiu Sheng make trouble.
Qiu Ya Niang took out a folder from the cabinet and found a certificate inside. It was given to her by her uncle when she got married. Because it took too long to issue the certificate, the paper had turned yellow and brittle. Qiu Ya Mom doesn’t know where to put it and take it to town, so I think I might as well put it in it and take it with me!
put on Qiu Ya’s grandma’s donkey cart. Qiu Ya didn’t tell anyone the truth, and she also told Osmanthus fragrans because she hadn’t even written the horoscope yet! You can't call a dog before you poop.
May is gentle, with warm sunshine and gentle breeze, just like Qiu Ya Niang driving a donkey cart on the road.
asked several people before finding the Civil Affairs Bureau. Because she could not face Changgui calmly for the moment, Qiu Ya Niang chose an office at random, took out the martyr certificate, and asked about the situation. A staff member of
received her warmly. Qiu Ya Niang took out the certificate. The staff briefly asked her about her situation and told Qiu Ya Niang that due to limited resources, not everyone can get preferential treatment and yet. She The matter is indeed included in this event and has been discussed in a meeting long ago.
then asked, are you related to Section Chief Xu? Qiu Ya Niang didn't know why he asked that? I don’t know how to answer. I hesitate to say anything. Everyone in the village is related, right? The staff of
stopped pursuing it. Seeing that Qiu Ya Niang looked like a typical village woman, they told her that there were many procedures to go through and many departments to go to. It would be easier if Section Chief Xu handled it on her behalf. Otherwise, she might have to do it on her own. She made many trips, and her matter was proposed by Section Chief Xu from the beginning...
Only then did Qiu Ya Niang understand that her matter was helped by Chang Gui. Not everyone has such an opportunity. This time There are only three people in the town who are eligible for special care.
