Chapter 7: Filial piety is a blessing

Huang Han looked at the rice bowl in front of him, which contained more than 90% brown rice, and his nose felt sore.

He stood up silently, went to the table where the rice pot was placed, poured the bowl of rice into the pot, stirred it, and filled a bowl full of dark multi-grain rice.

Seeing the confused looks in his parents' eyes, Huang Han smiled back, restrained the urge to cry, and said:

"Dad, Mom, I was ignorant in the past and made you suffer. From now on, I will not do anything special. I will share the joys and sorrows with you. Barley rice is nothing. If you can eat it, so can I."

Zhang Fangfen didn't say anything, but Huang Han had already seen her eyes wet.

Huang Daozhou's eye circles were also a little red. He squeezed out a smile and said: "Being able to say something like this today is enough to prove that my Huang Han is sensible. Haha, a filial child is a blessing. Don't stand still and use chopsticks to eat."

Huang Han sat down and said to Zhang Fangfen next to him: "Mom, don't be sad. Don't worry. It won't be long before our family gets through. I will never allow you to sew clothes for others."

My mother smiled, with crystal tears still in the corners of her eyes. She said, "I don't have any fruit to eat, but I am happy to hear a few words about fruit."

Guozihua is a rural slang, which is similar to painting cakes to satisfy hunger. Zhang Fangfen is simple and unpretentious. She is not afraid of hardship and does not complain about tiredness. She is really happy to see her only son's performance today.

Huang Han was really hungry and didn't mind the roughness of the multi-grain rice at all. He ate it with big mouthfuls, which made his sister Huang Qi stunned for a while.

"Why are you staring at me? Eat well and see how thin you have become. Be careful of a strong wind blowing you up into the sky."

The little girl was skinny and skinny, and she ate very slowly even though she had a small appetite. Sometimes there would be half a bowl of rice left, and she was beaten frequently for this.

"Gee, brother is lying, how can there be such a strong wind?"

"Why not? Haven't you heard of tornadoes?"

"No, what kind of wind is a tornado?"

"A tornado is a hurricane that blows children who don't eat well into the sky."

"I don't believe it, sister, are there really tornadoes in the world?"

To tease her sister and scare her, Huang Han and Huang Xin have always been an offensive and defensive alliance. She pretended to be serious and said: "Last year, the tornado blew away a few children who didn't eat well. You have to be careful!"

Seeing that the little girl was about to cry, Zhang Fangfen scolded: "Eat well, little girl, you have to finish everything in the bowl and try to gain a few ounces of meat, otherwise you may be blown down by a gust of wind.

"Wow..." Sure enough.



Alas! Poor! The whole family is malnourished. If everything is not changed quickly, Huang Daozhou will still fall ill in five years, and then he will die after suffering for six years.

After lunch, Huang Han refused to let his sister wash the dishes and asked her to hurry up and study to prepare for the exam, because in more than two months she would have to take the exam from elementary school to junior high school.

Huang Xin was admitted to the junior high school of the Experimental Middle School, but Huang Han was worried that more accidents would happen due to his accidental disruption, and thought it would be safer to let Huang Xin spend more time studying.

She didn't expect her brother to behave like this. Huang Xin couldn't react for a while and said: "Huang Han, you are so weird today. You were so weird when you got up in the morning."

Huang Han said sternly: "Boys are different from girls. They wake up later. When I woke up, I suddenly felt that my brain became particularly bright and I could even write words much more beautifully.

There are many things that I couldn’t figure out now I’ve figured them out.”

"Do you mean you suddenly became enlightened?"

"Yes, that's what it means. If you don't believe me, just wait and see. I will definitely get full marks in the next exam to surprise my parents!"

"Full score? Haha, no need, pass, no, seventy or eighty is enough to make parents extremely happy."

In Huang Xin's impression, although Huang Han was grade-decent, he didn't fail the test many times. Occasionally, he could get 70 or 80 points a few times, but the times were too few.

"Sister, are you so unfavorable? I am your biological brother."

"Yes! It's because I'm my biological sister that I know you're always hot for three minutes."

"Hey, you can't be like this. You have to know how to re-examine the problem. Look, I will be at the top of the grade in no time."

"Being at the top is not a pie that falls from the sky, but the result of hard work every day. If you memorize the text right now, I think there is still a slight possibility.

You have six classes in the third grade. Don’t think about being at the top of the grade. Think more about how to squeeze into the middle of the class! I will still wash the dishes. You go to study quickly!"

Huang Han ignored it and said while clearing the table: "What are you reading? I can recite all the content that needs to be memorized in the third-grade Chinese textbook, and I can write all the new words. You have to work hard, otherwise you will be compared to me.

Go down."

"Haha, if your grades were really better than mine, I would be happier than if I got 100 points."

Huang Han smiled and said: "I really believe in this, sister, thank you for your love!"

Huang Xin has cared for Huang Han meticulously since she was a child, and the two have a deep relationship.

Huang Han, who has been working hard on his own, has received selfless support from his sister. After resigning, his sister received seven percent of the cost of starting a business.

That was all her family's savings, and it was entirely possible that it would be wasted, but she did not hesitate. It was undoubtedly a timely help.

At this time, Huang Han's words "Thank you for your love" naturally contain profound meaning. If he could do it over again, Huang Han would not only change the fate of his family, but also strive to make his sister's life better.

Huang Xin was reserved, sensitive and didn't like to talk too much, but she could always chat with Huang Han. At this time, she thought her brother was bragging and stopped talking. She smiled and gave up fighting with Huang Han to wash the dishes.

I really went to do my homework.

She became sensible early, knew the current situation of her family, and understood that the only way to get ahead was to study hard.

Huang Han washed the dishes, wiped the table, and after sweeping the floor, he took off his dirty clothes and scrubbed them. A smile appeared on Zhang Fangfen's face, who was busy rushing out shrouds for an old man in an employer's house.

Zhang Fangfen makes clothes entirely by hand. It is really hard to do every stitch, but the charges are extremely low. That is because most women in this era have the instinct to sew and mend. If the wages are high, where will the business come to her?

The biggest plan for my family is to buy a sewing machine, but unfortunately it has not been realized yet.

At this time, buying bicycles, sewing machines, watches, cigarettes and wine, etc. all require planning coupons. Without these things, even if you have money, you will not be able to buy them.

Huang Daozhou has long asked his sister who works in a second-hand store in Shanghai to buy a second-hand sewing machine. The reason is very simple. Used goods do not require planning and can save money.

Because Huang Daozhou gets up early every day, he has the habit of taking a nap, but the time is not long, only half an hour, otherwise he will be late for work.

In this period when most employees are just dawdling, arriving late and leaving early is common, but it is amazing that Zodiac Zhou has never been late once.

However, no matter how well Huang Daozhou behaves, a person with historical stains like him is destined to be impossible to be promoted. In the future, Huang Han must properly remind him to prevent him from wasting his efforts.

In fact, it is of some use to him to go to work on time, and it is impossible to create more benefits for the unit. He basically has nothing to do in the unit, reading a newspaper for half a day.

Even if it creates benefits, it is meaningless, and it is impossible to get an extra dollar of salary. This kind of unit is still destined to close down and disband. It is better to let it die early and be reborn.

At this time, except for monopoly industries, all units in Sanshui County were not spared from the wave of reform.

The briquette factory is a sunset industry with no possibility of survival.

Huang Han was different again when he went to school in the afternoon. Although he was still in rags, he was neatly packed away.

Huang Han is handsome and fair-skinned. After working, "Dream of Red Mansions" became a hit across the country. This can be seen from the fact that the women in his workplace gave him the nickname "Jia Baoyu".

But in his heart, Huang Han despised "Jia Baoyu", a fool who thought he was hanging out among women all day long. Anyone who called him "Jia Baoyu" would be in a hurry.

He came to school on time and was probably the last one to enter the classroom. As soon as he entered the door, he was greeted by dozens of strange looks.

As soon as he sat down, Xiao Qiang next to him looked at him with a smile, a slight blush on his fair smiling face.
