Yang Xiaole and the two of them were strolling in the family area.

The textile factory operates on a three-shift system, and now two-thirds of the people are in the family area, and many people have come out without sleeping.

Everywhere along the way, there were young women and girls.

"Hey, bro, if you're resting, don't just stay in the dorm like a fool. There are several workers' clubs near the capital. Go there and have fun. There's a cinema and a dance hall. Go and see if you can find a sister-in-law for me."

Yang Xiaole joked with his older brother while looking at the passing beauties.

You have to go out and broaden your horizons.

It's not about corrupting your older brother.

Yang Xiaole now looks honest, that's because he spent a long time in the countryside. He still feels a bit inferior after entering the city, but once he gets used to it here, he'll shed his greenness and become more steady.

Yang Xiaole didn't pay any attention to him.

He just followed quietly behind.

After watching for a while, he thought of something and asked him, "By the way, bro, what shift do you work? What time do you start and finish? Don't be late for work."

"It's okay, I applied to the supervisor for a change. I used to work the middle shift, now it's the night shift, as long as I'm there before midnight."

"Oh, then it's okay."

Yang Xiaole didn't care when he heard the time.

"Hey, bro, the cinema, do you want to go in and watch again? There are lots of girls in there!"

Seeing the factory cinema, Yang Xiaole goaded him.

Yang Xiaole quickly shook his head: "No, I just watched, I don't want to watch again."

Seeing his brother's expression, Yang Xiaole pouted.

Coward!

When they arrived at a playground, they were suddenly attracted by a burst of cheers.

They saw a group of people playing basketball on the playground.

All around were girls.

This reminded Yang Xiaole of the time in high school when he used to sweat freely on the basketball court, with a group of female students watching.

But there were limited girls watching at school, but here it was packed inside and out, completely enveloped.

From time to time, there were shouts from the girls.

If it weren't for the fact that the players on the court were boys, he would have thought it was a girls' basketball team!

After a closer look, there were three teams on the court, each from three cotton textile factories, with one team resting in turn.

Overall, it was similar to the future.

It's just missing some flashy basketball skills.

Yang Xiaole was also curious and watched there. Their factory didn't have that many people, so there was no basketball court.

But he had heard of this.

So that's how it's played!

Under the shade of the trees around the playground, many girls were reading books, some were reading textbooks.

At this time, more and more people were returning from outside to the family area.

Yang Xiaole knew it was time to get off work, and it was almost time to go back for dinner, or they would get a beating if they were late.

So the two of them headed back home.

When they got back to Uncle's house, the smell of food wafted through the stairwell.

Everyone was cooking in their own homes.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

They knocked on the door, and it was their mother, Wang Qiuju, who opened it.

Seeing the two of them come in, Wang Qiuju complained, "Where did you two run off to? Dinner is almost ready. We'll eat and then go back quickly."

"Xiaole, they're back? You guys eat first, there are two dishes left."

Qian Hongying was busy in the kitchen on the balcony, and when she saw the two of them come in, she smiled and greeted them.

Two coal stoves were burning vigorously there.

"Alright, let's eat."

Yang Guangchun sat at the Eight Immortals table and greeted Wang Qiuju.

Then everyone sat down.

Yang Xiaole and his older brother also sat down after taking a look. They didn't expect to eat so early. It hadn't been two hours since they had eaten the two or three catties of roast duck!

There weren't many dishes on the Eight Immortals table, but there was a lot of food.

There was a plate of braised chicken in an enamel plate, similar to what they had for lunch.

A bowl of braised pig's head meat.

Peanuts, cucumbers, eggplants, and braised tofu.

In a basin next to it was a pot of white rice, with a few steamed buns on top, which looked like they were bought outside.

Both of them were city people, and one person was close to 30 catties of grain, and there were about 8 catties of fine grains. Together, they had 16 catties of fine grains a month, so they could afford rice.

Uncle and Dad were drinking there.

The others were sitting there, waiting for Auntie Qian Hongying.

Soon, Qian Hongying came over with a bowl of tomato and egg soup and started to complain when she saw that no one had touched their chopsticks.

"Eat, there's not much food! Don't be polite!"

Then she sat down and took a steamed bun.

Wang Qiuju saw this and picked up her rice bowl to eat.

Yang Xiaole and his brother also scooped up a bowl of rice and followed suit.

As they ate, they chatted.Yang Xiaole spoke to Wang Qiuju at this time: "Mom, big brother said to rent a room for him to get married."

"Ah!"

When big brother heard this, and saw everyone looking at him, he couldn't help but feel anxious.

He quickly nodded.

Seeing this, Yang Xiaole smiled and said, "Big brother, there's nothing to be embarrassed about. You're at that age, and it won't be long before you get married. You can't marry a wife and still sleep with us, leaving your wife on the side, right?"

With that, everyone burst into laughter, making Yang Xiaogang blush.

Uncle Yang Guangchun thought for a moment and nodded in agreement, "Hmm, I think it's okay. To be honest, if we wait for him to get a house, who knows when that will be! Either you rent one for him now, or wait until Xiaogang is getting married and then rent two directly, both are fine."

After speaking, he stuffed a mouthful of peanuts into his mouth.

Dad and the others couldn't make a decision for a while.

While eating, everyone talked about Xiaole's illness.

Yang Xiaole also felt that Uncle seemed to have some opinions about him, in other words, he was not likable.

If he's not likable, then so be it.

As long as he's good to the others at home, it's fine. After all, he doesn't need anyone's help.

There's no way the impression of what he did before could be good.

It took almost an hour to finish the meal.

Wang Qiuju looked at her two sons and asked with a frown, "Did you two go out to eat? You're not eating?"

"Yeah, we got hungry in the afternoon, so we had two pancakes."

Yang Xiaole said casually.

Upon hearing this, Wang Qiuju nodded and didn't ask anything else.

But she still felt that something was wrong. A pigeon doesn't eat pebbles, there must be something in the stomach!

After eating, Yang Guangzhi was ready to go back.

Otherwise, it would take a long time to walk to Fucheng Gate without public transportation.

Yang Guangchun didn't stop him, just sighed that time was too short.

He sent several people out of the door.

Before leaving, Qian Hongying handed five boxes of ginseng to Wang Qiuju:

"Guangchun said Xiaole is not in good health, so I gave him a few boxes. Don't worry, I paid for it, didn't take advantage of the public resources, otherwise your big brother would blame me."

Wang Qiuju looked at the things and thanked her.

She took the things.

"Hey, don't be so polite, come to the city to play when you have time."

Then the two of them sent everyone to the bus stop.

They got on the bus, and then they went back.

There were many people on the bus, and no one had time to chat.

Without a direct bus, they had to transfer at Chaoyangmen, and then got off at the stop near Big Brother's factory.

Big Brother went in to get the documents.

The three of them waited here.

Yang Xiaole looked at the bus nearby and said to Yang Guangzhi, "Dad, I'm going to the Hua family to say hello. I have to say something when this person leaves."

Yang Guangzhi hesitated when he heard this and nodded, "Okay, go ahead."

You can't just borrow money and then not take care of anything.

Seeing this, Yang Xiaole stopped the bus and ran up.

Leaving the couple waiting there.

The bus stopped near the vegetable market, and Yang Xiaole went to the alley, carrying a fish of about twenty catties, towards the Hua family.

When he arrived, the other party was just having a meal.

Seeing him coming over, Su Ling invited him in for a meal.

Yang Xiaole handed her the fish: "Auntie, I said it's really free. I have to go home with my dad. By the way, let's wait on the matter of going to the Overseas Chinese Store. Come over when you have time."

Su Ling nodded, "Okay, you take care of it, I'll take you to see it when I have time."

After speaking, she looked at the fish: "I have to pay for this fish."

"Auntie, I said it's a gift for you, just take it in quickly, I'm leaving."

After saying that, Yang Xiaole ran away.

Su Ling watched him run away, shook her head, and could only carry the things back.

When he returned to Big Brother's side, it was already dark.

The three of them were waiting here.

When Yang Guangzhi came over, he asked, "Is everything settled?"

"Yeah, it's settled. Shall we go back now?"

Yang Guangzhi smoked and said to him, "Let's go back. I can still sleep for a while when we get there. Tomorrow, let your mom go to the commune first and get the seal of the commune."

Yang Xiaole nodded.

Then the three of them said goodbye to Big Brother and walked towards Fucheng Gate.

When they arrived at Fucheng Gate, there were no more buses.

Several people had to take a coal truck back, and it just so happened that Yang Guangzhi didn't need to get off the truck.

Fortunately, there were many coal trucks at this point, and people were easy to talk to.

One car couldn't fit everyone, so they split into two cars. Yang Xiaole and his mother took one car and left first, leaving Yang Guangzhi waiting for the next car.

It was after ten o'clock at night when the two of them finally returned home, looking weary and worn out.

At this time, most of the people in the village were already asleep.After taking a bath, Yang Xiaole noticed Wang Qiuju looking worried and asked curiously, "What's wrong, Mom? Is something the matter?"

Wang Qiuju shook her head, "It's nothing serious, just wondering what to do with the quilts. Your sister took one, you took one, and if I take one, what will your father cover himself with? It's not right for you two to share just a thin blanket either! It's so cold in the winter!"

We are "pawread.co𝑚", find us on google.

Yang Xiaole shrugged his shoulders, thinking it was some major issue!

It was all about the quilts!

But indeed, without a heated bed in the Capital during winter, it would be very cold, and more quilts would be necessary.

Anyway, there were quilts in the space, so there was no need to worry.

"It's fine, we'll talk about it when the time comes. Aren't we all going to the City soon? We can just bring out the quilts then."

Hearing this, Wang Qiuju could only nod gently.

That was the only option.

Hopefully, it could be settled soon.

Yang Xiaole looked at her, thought of something, and said, "Right, Mom, give me all the documents tomorrow, and I'll handle it for you. You just focus on your work as if you don't know anything. Once all the paperwork is complete, then you can let people know. If you don't want to tell them, we can just leave directly."

After thinking it over, Wang Qiuju agreed, "Alright, you go ahead and take care of it. Didn't the director say it needs to be done within five days? I wonder if there's enough time."
