Return To 1977 Chapter 217: Who among us is following whom

lnmao.org, the fastest update to return to the latest chapter of 1977!

After watching "Red Lantern", "General" sat on the sofa in the living room and couldn't help but sigh.

"I have figured it out. Comparing people should be punished, and comparing goods should be thrown away. How can there be equality in the world? Being an official is different. People like us will never have a chance to live like this..."

"You say, it's no use even if we, 'Haichangzi', can fish out a mountain of gold from the sea. We can't buy TVs and refrigerators in this store, and we can't live in a house like this. If my sister hadn't married out of our family, Now, it’s not my turn to have my own hut. ‘Sanjizi’ and ‘Xiapaizi’ are even worse off. They have so many people in their families that they have to squeeze in bunk beds and have no floor space..."

"Yang Zi, you don't want to live in such a nice garden house. What are you thinking?"

The words of "General" were full of envy, but also a bit despondent.

In fact, this is somewhat similar to the feeling that officials from various places and imperial examination scholars felt when they first entered the palace in the feudal era. No matter how big your ambitions for revenge and ambition are, they will involuntarily become insignificant as soon as you see the majesty of the royal family.

Just imagine it, what if you are the best official? What if you are richest in the world? There is only one splendid palace in the world, and it represents a height that the world will never hope for.

But Yang Weifan disapproved of it and began to vomit his bitterness.

"What do you think? You have to stay for two days to find out. It's actually very boring!"

"Don't you want to be clean? This neighborhood is absolutely quiet! In addition to a few old Red Army soldiers, some leaders of the Naval Engineering College and the municipal party committee, there are also "No Trucks" and "No Honking" signs on the roadside. Except for the wind and the chirping of birds, there is no sound. I live here but it’s annoying all day long. Whenever I hear the leaves rustling outside at night, I feel like I’m in a haunted house..."

“I actually like living in the alleys of Beijing. In the past, I lived in Grandma Feng’s house. The house was smaller, but it was so warm to live together as a family, and there were neighbors who could visit. It’s not like here, where it’s empty when you go out. Yes, everyone is very fake and always puts on their own official airs..."

Hong Yanwu immediately snorted and strongly objected.

"Okay, you are in the midst of blessings and don't know how blessed you are! Although what you say makes sense to a certain extent, the full taste of the suffering of the people cannot be fully understood by your kid who has lived in a hutong for a few years!"

“Have you ever seen the whole family putting down boxes, setting up chairs, and setting up bunks to sleep at night? Have you ever experienced the frustration of your son looking for a partner, but because the housing conditions are too poor and too crowded, the woman just shows up and leaves the house for the first time? Not to mention anything else, right now, our 'general' has married a wife, but because his family opposes the marriage, he has to live in a guest house."

"Of course, I am much better than those people, but a guest house is not a home. It is surrounded by tourists. If you want to do some 'hundred-year plan', you have to be careful and careful every night, and your spirit is extremely tense. Ah. He has a mission, and he can’t bring his wife home openly without giving birth to a child..."

These implicit words immediately caused Yang Weifan to laugh mischievously, and the "general" blushed at the words.

But Yang Weifan was really interesting and said it right away.

"Who told you not to ask me earlier? You must have suffered in vain. Have you fallen in love with this house? It's easy! Don't talk about what you have and what you don't have. Anyway, I will give you the key today. Are you willing to save sea cucumbers? It’s okay, you can live wherever you want, it’s up to you, as long as you don’t make me miserable, the public hates me, and try to bully me in words and deeds...”

The "general" was stunned on the spot, and then turned into extremely surprised.

"Are you... are you serious? I'm grateful that you can lend us a place to store your things! You... want to lend me such a nice house to live in?"

Yang Weifan patted his chest in affirmation.

"What, you still don't believe it? We are all gentlemen, one spits and the other nails! I am such a stingy person! Besides, who of us is following whom? Aren't we buddies!"

"I believe it, I believe it! Thank you, thank you!"

The "general" thanked him hurriedly, but then he couldn't help but hesitate.

"Yang Zi, is it inappropriate for me to live here? This is where the top leader of Bincheng lives! If anyone asks, then I...Besides, if your family members want to know... ”

Yang Weifan quickly expressed relief.

"You're too worried. No one in this world interacts with anyone. Once the door is closed, it's your own little world. If anyone wants to ask, you can say that they are my relatives or my friends. I will leave a message for you later. If you don’t believe the phone number of the military control area, just ask them to call me to verify.”

"You don't have to worry about my family. My dad can't leave in Shanghai. My mom has to follow. Maybe she will call occasionally. Then you can say that you will look after the house for me. As for my brothers Sister, they won’t come at all if they know I’m here, so don’t worry, as long as I’m still in Bincheng, you can stay here as long as you want…”

When Yang Weifan said this, before the "general" could say anything else, Hong Yanwu had already made the decision for him.

"Okay! That's the deal with the house! It's been a long time, but I finally heard you say something humane!"

To follow him, you have to be nice and say, "Haha, Yang Zi, you still know some brotherly loyalty. But we don't want to thank you, because 'general' is cultivating revolutionary successors for the motherland. As a As a son of a cadre and a revolutionary soldier, it is his duty to help. This is also to contribute to the early realization of communism. Besides, when a child is born, he has to call you uncle. By the way, borrowing a house is one thing. , it’s another thing to give money to children. You have to prepare it in advance, don’t try to get away with it by ‘playing chicken and thieves’...

Then he said to the "general", "Don't belittle yourself. I didn't like what you said just now. What's wrong with us people? Don't look at the monopoly of officials now, but there will be a long time to come. Who can say that? Things like TVs and refrigerators are nothing. You don’t have to worry about the house. It will be yours sooner or later. Maybe one day, we can put this together. We have bought several streets. When the time comes, we can buy a bigger house and give it to Yang Zi. That will be a big deal..."

"General" was not as shameless as Hong Yanwu, and he couldn't believe what he said, even though these things actually became a reality in the future, and he couldn't help but sigh when he thought about it. But now, he only thinks about thanking Yang Weifan solemnly.

"Yang Zi, I don't even know how to thank you. You've really helped me a lot. Xiao Wu is so arrogant. It's impossible to buy you a villa as a gift, but I still have to express my gratitude. Just tell me where to go. You can choose from all the restaurants in Bincheng. It doesn't matter how many meals you want! Don't worry, I will definitely look after this house for you. We won't touch which room you want to live in. Tell me and I will clean it every day..."

"No, no, no, no, why are you being polite to me? Stay in your house and use everything in your house as you would in your own home. I'll have someone bring coal to you later. I'll teach you how to use it. Boiler. From now on, you will be able to take a hot bath when you stay here, and you will also need this for heating in winter..."

After saying a few polite words to the "general", Yang Weifan was able to chat with Hong Yanwu. He rolled his eyes at Hong Yanwu with disdain, and became more and more dissatisfied with what he said just now.

"Hey, they say that dogs can't spit out ivory. I see that your stinky mouth can't even spit out dog teeth. I won't tell you how much you brag. How did you treat me? Your attitude is so poor! Who are you trying to trick me into talking to? I'm not afraid to tell you, kid, I don't care about your gratitude at all. I'm so generous in changing this house. If it’s you, I really won’t borrow it today. I don’t believe it. Why would you beat me up?”

This is the usual way Yang Weifan and Hong Yanwu get along. They like to gossip when they have nothing to do. In essence, it is a kind of see-saw-like teasing rather than being really anxious. Of course, "General" and Chen Liquan were used to this, so no one took them seriously.

Sure enough, Hong Yanwu immediately responded with a smile.

"Don't tell me, I just don't like you. You have a house, so you are awesome? I hate to see someone raise his tail so high, and I really plan to pluck your feathers." Don’t you agree with us arguing outside? Do you dare to go?”

"Yang Zi, listen, I'm here to give you two pieces of advice to save you from suffering. The first is to advise you, even if you imitate Lei Feng and do good deeds, you have to restrain yourself in the future. Maybe you have been away from Beijing for too long and have forgotten us. The modesty of the people in the capital. If you dare to walk with your arms still, you are not far away from being beaten."

"Second, even if you want to win, you have to analyze the situation first. Now it's just a matter of three, five, and two. Remember, when you want to be awesome in the future, first See if you have the **** on you..."

Yang Weifan subconsciously patted his empty waist before he reacted.

"Fuck! I said you kid dared to hit me in the face? You have been making trouble for a long time because you bullied me for not bringing a gun! You kid is really insidious. You tried every means to lure me into a trap, and then took the opportunity to clean up the matter. I won’t be fooled by you even if I’m still speechless!”

"Hahaha!" At this time, everyone couldn't help laughing together.

Enough laughing, enough making trouble. The "general" who was still thinking of thanking Yang Weifan asked to treat him to dinner!

Yang Weifan was not a polite person, and besides, everyone was really hungry since they hadn’t had lunch, so they unanimously decided to go straight to "Laojinmen Street" where there are many restaurants.

Unexpectedly, before leaving, Yang Weifan suddenly remembered something and delayed again.

He told everyone, "My eldest sister was sent to Japan by Zeng Gong to study for more than two months in the first half of this year. When she returned home, she brought back a lot of things. My mother also sent me a copy some time ago. Among them was a bottle of "Suntory" whiskey is quite rare, but I have "made" it all myself. Now there are some Japanese cigarettes and food left. Since everyone is here, everyone can share these things. ."

Hong Yanwu and the others are not greedy people, and they don't have the habit of taking advantage of others when they have to. But Yang Weifan couldn't resist Yang Weifan's kindness, and foreign goods these days were really hard to come by, which made people extremely curious. So they didn't object much. They thanked him a few times and let Yang Weifan go get the things.

Not long after, Yang Weifan took out a small paper box from the kitchen like a treasure, placed it on the coffee table, opened it, and distributed things to everyone.

Unlike the eager glances of Chen Liquan and the "General", Hong Yanwu already knew what was inside with a quick glance.

It was nothing more than a few boxes of "Seven Star" and "Cherry" brand cigarettes, and some small packages of Japanese snacks, candies and the like.

Of course this is nothing new to him. Therefore, when he saw that there was not much, he took the initiative to refuse, saying that he would only give it to Chen Liquan and the "general".

Unexpectedly, Yang Weifan thought he was trying to save face and kept giving in, forcing him to put a pack of cigarettes in his hand.

Hong Yanwu couldn't help but laugh and said that he couldn't get used to smoking this cigarette. "Seven Star" is too light, and "Cherry" is too strong. This kind of blended tobacco is still "reconstituted tobacco leaf", half of which is mixed with paper. In fact, it is far less easy to smoke than domestic flue-cured tobacco.

After saying this, everyone was stunned.

The only imported cigarettes on the market at that time were North Korean cigarettes, and a thin Albanian cigarette in a hard box, which smelled bad when smoked. There were no other foreign cigarettes.

Chen Liquan and the "general" both asked Hong Yanwu when he smoked Japanese cigarettes? How come you still recognize these two cigarette brands?

While Hong Yanwu was holding a cigarette case, reading English and talking nonsense to the two of them, Yang Weifan slapped his thigh and opened a cigarette to check it out on the spot.

I didn’t expect there to be a lot of paper scraps inside. The boy was furious and immediately scolded the kid for making fake cigarettes to fool people, saying why he wasn't used to it otherwise.

Of course, Hong Yanwu couldn't live up to Yang Weifan's good intentions. At this time, I was afraid that he would lose face, so I quickly explained to everyone that this was a foreign technology, and its main purpose was to reduce the harmful substances of tobacco, and it was not just to deceive people.

In this way, the boys turned from anger to joy and each packed their cigarettes.

While a few people were surprised that Hong Yanwu was well-informed, they also felt a little sorry for him. They all felt that he was at a disadvantage for not getting anything.

Yang Weifan thought for a while and then said, there is another item that is pretty good, but there is only one box left and there is no way to divide it. Since Hong Yanwu promotes his style, he can get that good thing.

After saying that, he went to get it again. When he came back, his face was full of pride, and he was holding the thing behind his back, saying that this thing was delicious, fun, and very magical. I bet you have never seen it before.

Chen Liquan and the "general" were both intrigued and asked what it was.

Yang Weifan still wanted to show off, so he described it in detail, "This thing is special. When you are hungry, you just need to open the package and put boiling water in..."

As soon as he heard this, Hong Yanwu couldn't help but sigh.

"You are talking about instant noodles, right? Noodles that can be eaten as soon as you soak them in boiling water..."

Unexpectedly, when Yang Weifan heard this, his eyes almost exploded with shock.

"You actually guessed it? Damn it! Now I extremely suspect that your kid is a latent agent!"
