"Grandma is gone." Zhang Haiyan picked up Su Jun and comforted her.

A black and white photo of Luo Wenjuan hangs on the wall of the living room, with kind eyes.

This was a photo I took specially last year. At this age, people can see many things quite clearly. It’s not that she doesn’t want to live, but it’s the law of nature. Luo Wenjuan took the photo early to prevent this moment, but she didn’t expect it.

Used it so quickly.

Su Xing looked at the photo and felt very sad. He was almost 20 years old in a flash. Time passed so fast. He turned to look at Su Liejun outside the house.

Su Liejun's hair is grayer and he is older.

The relatives at home have left, and Su Changguo will fly back tomorrow morning. He took several days off, which delayed a lot of things. In the evening, the whole family sat down to have dinner together.

"I have a flight at nine o'clock tomorrow morning." Su Changguo said to Su Changmin's brothers, "I will trouble you at home."

"Don't worry, we are at home, you don't have to worry, just go about your own business." Su Changmin nodded.

Su Changmin's tone and demeanor when he speaks now are very different from before. In the past, his words were always light and unconvincing, but now he is much more steady, he speaks in a leisurely and unhurried manner, and he has a leadership temperament.

After working in a position for a long time, your words and deeds will always move closer to that position.

"Dad, do you want to stay at my place for a few days?" Su Changguo asked Su Liejun, who was not talking much.

Su Liejun placed a glass of wine in front of him. After Luo Wenjuan's death, he had to drink a glass of wine every night to be able to sleep.

The person who had been with him all his life just passed away. To say that he is not sad or to say that he is tolerant is a lie, but at this age and at this point, no matter how much suffering and discomfort he has, he still keeps it all in his heart.

"Don't worry about me. Go and do your own thing. You've been delayed for many days. Go back to work quickly. Work is important." Su Liejun waved his hand, "I'm fine at home. If anything happens, you brothers can do it."

Take care of it.”

After dinner, Su Liejun went back to the room to sleep. Zhang Haiyan took Suning and Su Jun to take a bath and wash their feet. Su Ran was woken up and asked to preview the textbooks for the first year of high school. Su Min was on hand to guide her.

Su Changguo, Su Changmin, Su Changsheng, Su Changlong, Su Xing, and Su Guiyun sat together and chatted.

"After Mom left, it was obvious that Dad was not in very good condition. I was really worried that something would happen to him again." Su Guiyun said, "He is getting older and his hair is all white."

"Can a person in his 70s not be too old?" Su Changsheng took over, "I have worked hard all my life and have only enjoyed a few years of blessings. It is really pitiful. A small cold can cause my body to collapse instantly."

"It's like this when you get older." Su Changguo sighed, "With a little bit of pain, the body's functions will collapse immediately. My parents suffered too much when they were young, and many of the sequelae didn't show up until this time."

Su Changguo looked at Su Changmin: "Second brother, you are the village chief now. Your family is not short of money. As a village chief, you can't use your position to do illegal things."

"Why should I do that? I don't really want to be the village chief. Everyone insists on letting me be the village chief because they trust me." Su Changmin said, "Since I am the village chief, I will definitely not do anything illegal.

I am just an ordinary citizen. There is no need to do illegal things, and my family is not short of money. Why do I do that? I might as well think about how to improve the village."

"I'm just telling you, because I've seen too many such things. We have to pay attention to principles in life. There are some things that can be done and some things that cannot be done. You have to figure it out for yourself." Su Changguo said, "I have seen it.

Many similar cases, a small

The small village chief embezzled millions in a few years and bought more than a dozen houses in the city. Looking at the village, there are still many people who don't have enough to eat. They can't bear to eat even one meal of meat a month. The state allocates

All the money that went down was robbed by him, how hateful is such a person?"

"That's greed. There is no need to be corrupt if you really want to make money." Su Changmin said, "For example, many villagers in our village have planted fruit trees, greenhouses, and raised livestock and poultry. Only a small part of the land is left for cultivation, and there is a road outside.

Lakes and rivers are engaged in tourism. Each household can earn a conservative income of 10,000 yuan a year. If you are more diligent, you can start a small business, or sell toys and other products to tourists, and you can make three or four jobs a year.

Ten thousand yuan.”

"Thirty to forty thousand yuan is pretty good. On average, you can earn two to three thousand yuan a month, which is more than what most working people earn." Su Changguo said, "I don't have such a high salary now.

Regarding wages, the current economic situation is not very good. Many workers have been laid off. It is very difficult to find a job. Let alone two to three thousand yuan a month, three to four hundred yuan a month is a lot."

"How can it be the same? Most rural areas are very poor. It is a big deal to be able to save 1,000 yuan throughout the year." Su Changlong said, "Our village is different because Xingzi is here. He has opened many companies.

The fruit from the fruit trees in the village is sold directly to the company. Now several nearby villages want to join in planting fruit trees, including Maqiao Lake to run farmhouses and tourism. It is also Xingzi's idea, otherwise he will not be able to make so much money from farming.

"

Su Changlong has a deep understanding of these. In the past, poor people in rural areas could not even marry a wife. Later, they gradually improved with Su Xingqian. Now they have houses in the city, Jiangcheng, and Hainan. The quality of life has changed a lot.

Big change.

Being rich means being rich, but every time I think back to my poor days, I feel frightened. I am really afraid that I will go back to the past when I wake up.

I couldn't live that day.

"Speaking of this, I have to say a few more words to you, Xingzi." Su Changguo looked at Su Xing, "With the restructuring of state-owned enterprises, some bloated companies have been eliminated, and companies that are not competitive enough have also been eliminated. The result is that many workers

Being diverted, laid off, and buying out their seniority, these workers have been working in the factory for half their lives.

Son, it is difficult to adapt to society when you suddenly lose your job. Some people have found jobs, but most people live very hard. Without a job, it is difficult for their families to buy rice. You are very business-minded, and your business tentacles are also reaching out to me.

It has stretched over there, but can we take a bigger step?"

The wave of layoffs actually started a few years ago and is almost over now. However, the problem has never been solved and many laid-off workers are living unsatisfactory lives.

The fate of the Second Beverage Factory would have been like that of other state-owned enterprises. It went bankrupt and workers were laid off. It took a turn when it recovered. Not only that, the Second Factory also provided employment opportunities for many people.
