Chapter 328: Educated Youth vs. Village Grass 59
Braised pork and potatoes, attractive in color and overflowing with meaty aroma;
The braised fish is shiny with oil, which means abundance every year;
The pork belly and cabbage stew are a perfect combination of meat and vegetables;
Pork fried potato slices, fresh and delicious;
There is also refreshing mixed tofu.
Each table was filled with six dishes on large plates. The dishes were filled with an enticing greasy sheen, making one's mouth water.
In the 1970s, such a feast was considered top-notch.
Qin Zhan and Song Zibai warmly entertained the guests at the banquet.
At that time, most people gave gifts of one or two cents, or brought a few eggs from their own homes. Qin Zhan and Song Zibai didn't care about the amount of the gifts, they just wanted to have fun.
Most of the people in the village came to attend the happy event, making the scene bustling with activity.
Qin Zhan even specially opened a table for a group of little kids.
These children often helped him deliver firewood, and he always kept it in mind.
Everyone enjoyed the banquet to their heart's content, and Qin Zhan and Song Zibai left a very good impression on the entire Dayangshu Village. Everyone praised their generosity and enthusiasm.
After the couple's lively wedding banquet was successfully completed, time passed quickly and in the blink of an eye, there were only a few days left before the Chinese New Year.
As usual, Qin Zhan went to the town to complete the last transaction with Brother Hu before the New Year.
The transaction went smoothly and everything went according to plan.
Finally, New Year's Eve arrived, and Qin Zhan received a letter from Qin Sheng.
He opened the letter with great joy and read it carefully. The letter said that Qin Sheng had successfully joined the army and that although life in the army was stressful, it was also very meaningful.
It’s just that my grandfather is old and has difficulty moving around, so he wrote the letter for me.
In the letter, Qin Sheng also mentioned that everything was fine at home, and asked Qin Zhan not to worry and to live here peacefully.
At the same time, Qin Sheng told Qin Zhan to write letters to the army frequently so that he could keep abreast of the situation at home.
At the end of the letter, Qin Sheng asked Qin Zhan to help say hello to his sister-in-law, and the words were full of concern for his family.
Qin Zhan and Song Zibai spent this year very quietly, just like two lazy kittens hibernating at home.
During the day, the two of them would study together and absorb knowledge from books. They looked so serious as if nothing else in the world could disturb them.
At night, they also have their own "study" time, and their feelings grow deeper in the warm atmosphere.
Such days are simple yet fulfilling, and every day is filled with sweetness.
The days after the New Year seemed to have been accelerated by someone, and in the blink of an eye it was the spring plowing season.
In addition to going to work on time every day, Qin Zhan also began to try to write some articles for the newspaper.
The articles he wrote were rich in content and varied in content, many of which praised Dayangshu Village.
He used vivid brushstrokes to depict the customs and people of Dayangshu Village, the hardworking and simple qualities of the villagers, and the rapid changes in the village.
These manuscripts were taken seriously by the newspaper and published in it.
The commune leaders were also very happy when they saw this, and they specially praised Liu Guomin during a meeting, praising his good leadership and managing the village in an orderly manner.
The days flow like water, day after day, plain yet extremely fulfilling. Every ordinary moment constitutes a part of their happy life.
Time flies, four years have passed like a flash.
In these four years, Qin Zhan has accumulated a huge fortune of 300,000 yuan with his wisdom and hard work.
You know, in that era when people with a monthly income of 10,000 yuan were extremely rare, Qin Zhan's wealth undoubtedly made him far surpass most people and stand at the pinnacle of wealth.
However, this is only a part of his assets, and does not include the priceless antiques in his space.
Over the years, Qin Zhan and Brother Hu have maintained close cooperation. Their business has been smooth sailing and they have both made a lot of money.
Every transaction and every decision is like adding bricks to their wealth building, making it more solid and magnificent.
One day, Qin Zhan approached Liu Guomin and asked him seriously, "Uncle Liu, can you give me a place at the Workers, Peasants and Soldiers University this year?"
Qin Zhan knew that it was time to return to the capital.
He already has a long-term plan. The college entrance examination will be resumed next year, and he can let Song Zibai take it then.
For him, just having a university degree is enough, which will provide him with a lot of convenience in doing business in the future.
Liu Guomin looked at Qin Zhan, a hint of reluctance in his eyes. He said slowly, "Xiao Qin, are you going back?"
He really couldn't bear to part with this young man. During the past few years of getting along with him, he admired Qin Zhan's abilities and character very much.
But he also understood that Qin Zhan was like an eagle, and this was just a branch where he stayed for a short time, and his future lay in a broader sky.
Qin Zhan nodded: "Well, Grandpa is old, I have to go back to take care of him. Also, Uncle Liu, I'd like to trouble you to transfer Zibai's relationship."
In fact, as early as the year before last, Liu Guomin had asked Qin Zhan if he wanted to return to the city. At that time, Qin Zhan refused because he felt that the time was not yet ripe.
Liu Guomin replied: "Okay, I understand."
