Traveling through time and space, wanting to lie down, but being forced to move forward

Chapter 286 Zhou Mingxuan Compromises

During the Spring Festival, Liu Jingxue always had dinner in the cowshed.

On the sixth day of the New Year, Zhang Guiying invited Liu Jingxue to her home for lunch, and Liu Jingxue accepted the invitation.

The meal was a great pleasure for both the host and the guests.

Honestly speaking, Aunt Sufen’s cooking skills are really good. Although she has a common problem of this era where she is reluctant to use oil, the food she cooks is still delicious.

The Spring Festival at that time was not a holiday like in later generations. The emphasis was on "grasping revolution and promoting production", all feudal customs were banned, and eating "recalling the bitter past and thinking of the sweet future" was popular.

Because the roads were blocked by heavy snow, the Red Star Production Brigade seemed like a piece of pure land where people lived their own little lives.

But everyone did not dare to be too presumptuous. Some activities in later generations, such as ancestor worship and worship of gods, were cancelled.

Maybe someone did it secretly.

When Liu Jingxue was outside the space, she used her spiritual sense to scan and found that some villagers sneaked into the mountain with incense and candles when it was dark or before dawn.

As for what he did, it is unknown.

On the eighth day of the first lunar month, Liu Jingxue went to the post office.

When Sister Jin saw her come in, she immediately greeted her, "Sister, you haven't been here for a while."

The last time Liu Jingxue came here was to help the team leader and Secretary Xu deliver meat in exchange for tickets. In total, she hadn't been to the city for more than half a month.

"Happy New Year, Sister Jin.

We are celebrating the New Year at home. The snow on the roads is too deep to go into the city."

"Sister Jin, is there a letter or package for me?"

“Yes, there are three packages, and they have been here for some time.

I haven't run into anyone from your production team, otherwise I would have sent someone to tell you to come get it."

When Liu Jingxue heard this, she realized that the three packages must have been sent by her eldest brother, Grandpa Zhang, and Aunt Wu.

"Sister Jin, please ask me if there are any letters or packages from other people in our production team.

If it's a letter, I'll take it back. If it's a package, I'll send a letter back and let them pick it up themselves."

Upon asking, she found out that there was indeed a letter from the Red Star Production Brigade. Liu Jingxue signed for it and planned to take it back with her.

There were also three packages, two from Xia Lan and Zhang Yingchun, who were sent to the youth league, and one from the team leader's home.

After receiving her three packages, Sister Jin asked with concern, "Xiaoxue, three packages, can you carry them back by yourself?"

Liu Jingxue lied, "Don't worry, sister, I came here by the village ox cart, and it's waiting in front.

I just need to carry it over with some effort and put it on the bullock cart."

Sister Jin took the initiative to say, "Then I'll help you carry it to the ox cart."

Liu Jingxue quickly stopped her, "Sister, you are still at work, I don't need your help.

I put one vertically in the backpack, tied another horizontally, and carried another in my hand, and that was it. "

The main thing is that if Sister Jin follows, how can she conjure up an ox cart and how can she smuggle the things into the space.

It happened that someone came to send a package at this time, and Sister Jin couldn't leave for a while.

Liu Jingxue took the opportunity to say goodbye to Sister Jin, put on her backpack, and left with her package.

Sister Jin saw Liu Jingxue carrying three packages on her back and in her hands, and she didn't seem to be struggling. She was then urged to check the items to be sent, so she had to give up.

After leaving the post office, Liu Jingxue found a secluded corner and put all the packages and backpacks into the space.

She found the most prosperous neighborhood, trained her spiritual sense, and made sure that she could now send and receive information freely and only receive the information she wanted to know. Only then did she set off back to the production team.

When she was almost at the entrance of the village, she put out the backpack and the package, and carried the backpack into the village.

She only released two packages, both of which were placed in the backpack. Too many of them would have been too conspicuous.

As he walked, he delivered the letters he brought back.

She lived at the end of the village, and when she got home, all the letters she brought back were delivered to their owners.

Of course, she did not forget to tell Xia Lan, Zhang Yingchun at the educated youth point, and the team leader that there were packages for them in the post office.

Using her spiritual sense to observe that there was no one around, Liu Jingxue went straight to the cowshed carrying a backpack and three packages.

Now her spiritual sense has covered a range of 600 meters. If someone goes to her house to look for her, she will be able to detect it even if she is in the cowshed.

There is an iron guard on the door. Even if someone comes to look for you, they will leave on their own when they see the iron guard.

Liu Jingxue told her uncle yesterday that she would go to town today, so they were not surprised to see her come in with the package.

After putting down the backpack and taking off the thick outer gear, Liu Jingxue said,

"Brother, Grandpa Zhang, and Aunt Wu sent the packages. Please open them yourselves."

They were opening blind boxes, while at the Zhou family in Beijing, Wu Yunshang was having an in-depth discussion with her youngest son about the future.

Since Mr. Zhou issued the ultimatum and those people have been targeting his son, such conversations have taken place several times.

Wu Yunshang looked at Zhou Mingxuan, "Mingxuan, you said before that you would think about it, how are you thinking about it now?

How did you decide whether to join the army or go to work? "

"You know the current situation of our family. Under the current circumstances, you really can't continue to stay idle at home.

If you don’t make a choice, you will have to go to the countryside.”

Without waiting for Zhou Mingxuan to answer, Wu Yunshang continued, "Don't tell me you can go to the countryside again, you know I have always disagreed with you going to the countryside.

I support you in not joining the army. I have three sons, two of them joined the army very early and I only see them once in several years.

It's so hard that you don't want to be a soldier, I can only be happy for you.

I just want you to stay by my side so that I can see you every day."

Wu Yunshang wiped away her tears and said, "If those people weren't there to mess things up, as long as you stayed by my side, even if you were not a descendant, I would be happy to let mom raise you for the rest of your life.

But the current situation is obviously not good, and you still have to make a choice."

Seeing his mother crying and making a fuss again, Zhou Mingxuan felt a headache.

Knowing that he was helpless against this, she always took advantage of his weaknesses.

Zhou Mingxuan clasped his hands together and bowed, "Mom, can you please not be like this?

Can we talk nicely?

I didn’t say I wasn’t going to work.”

When Wu Yunshang heard this, she was immediately surprised and asked, "Son, do you agree to go to work?"

"In this situation, I can still do what I want.

I don’t want to join the army, and you won’t let me go to the countryside, so the only option I have is to go to work.” Zhou Mingxuan said helplessly.

If it were up to him, he wouldn't want to go to that crappy class. He wanted to be a successful businessman like his grandfather did.

But given the current situation, he had no choice but to bow his head.

"Don't worry, son. I'll find someone to arrange a job for you so you can start working as soon as possible.

As long as you go to work, those people can’t force you to go to the countryside.”

After Wu Yunshang finished speaking, she ran to make a phone call and asked her good sister to help arrange a job for her son.

Zhou Mingxuan reminded from behind, "Mom, please don't find me some nagging job. I can't do that."

"Don't worry, I will definitely not find that kind of job for you." Wu Yunshang said this without even turning her head.

Zhou Mingxuan sighed and felt depressed, so he got up and walked out of the house, intending to find his good friend to talk and vent his grievances.
