Chapter 120 The Ambition of the Young People in Liujiazhuang
Liu Zhiye's return with six or seven pheasants in his hands shocked his family.
They had always known that Liu Zhiye had amazing talent in military skills, but had never had the opportunity to witness it in person.
Today, they really opened their eyes. In just a moment, several shots rang out, and seven pheasants fell to the ground cleanly.
This scene amazed them and made them deeply admire Liu Zhiye's skills.
"Wow! Bro! You are so awesome!"
"biu~biubiu, one shot each. I think you are more powerful than Li Xiangyang in the Plain Guerrillas." The little sister chattered non-stop.
"Hey! It's amazing, incredible, incredible..." Liu Jingzhai rarely praised him. He was not interested in shooting, so maybe that was the reason why he was shocked.
Liu Zhitai hurried forward to catch the pheasants and weighed them in his hands.
"Wow! This weighs about 30 kilograms. Just in time to bring a few home to nourish my sister-in-law..."
Gan Ning walked over curiously, and when he looked at the bloody pheasants, he suddenly felt a little nauseous.
"Ugh!" She quickly covered her nose and hid aside.
Seeing this, Liu Jingzhai quickly said, "Put it in a net bag and hang it outside the car. The smell is too fishy." He frowned, obviously not used to the strong smell of blood.
After a short stay here, we continued on our way.
……
Two flowers bloom, one branch each.
On his 30th birthday, Liu Tielin returned to Liujiazhuang wearing a neatly ironed police uniform and with great confidence and glory.
His return was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, causing a huge sensation in the entire Liujiazhuang.
Neighbors, relatives, friends, childhood classmates, and people who came after hearing the news gathered into a lively crowd and came together to "visit" Liu Tielin, who was wearing the Type 58 blue police uniform.
His police uniform sparkled in the sun and he looked full of energy. He seemed like a completely different person than before, almost two different people.
"Wow! Tielin! You look so smart..." Childhood friend Liu Shuqing was so envious that his saliva was almost flowing, and he reached out to touch his police uniform.
Cousin Liu Shulei suddenly hugged Liu Tielin's neck, and leaned close to Liu Tielin with his honest face, and said with a hint of embarrassment but with expectation: "Tielin! What do you think of our relationship as brothers?"
Liu Tielin stiffened his neck, looked unhappy, and his words revealed dissatisfaction. He said bluntly: "Not very good, please stop being polite to me, just say what you want to say."
This cousin has always loved to take advantage of others and never suffered any loss since he was young. This behavior caused disgust among his brothers, and no one wanted to talk to him.
Liu Shulei said embarrassedly, "Hehehe", "Then let me talk to you, can you take off this police uniform and let me wear it?" His voice was full of expectation and desire.
At this moment, brother-in-law Liu Fusheng also heard that his brother-in-law had returned, and hurried over to visit. He pulled Liu Shulei and pushed him aside.
Then he glanced at him with contempt, and said in a slightly mocking tone: "Why do you have such a big face? Go and rest wherever it's cool. And you're wearing a police uniform. I think even if you put on a dragon robe, you don't look like a prince."
Brother-in-law Liu Fusheng was the oldest among all the young people present, and his prestige was unmatched. He was the captain of the militia, and it could be said that he was the popular choice, and his words were definitely effective.
After being scolded by him, Liu Shulei could only smile awkwardly and step aside, not daring to talk back or say a word.
Liu Fusheng excitedly held Liu Tielin's hand tightly, looking him up and down with admiration in his eyes.
Then he patted Liu Tielin on the shoulder and said with joy: "That's great! You have a bright future, brother! You must work hard and try to stay in the city and never come back." His voice was full of encouragement and expectation, which made Liu Tielin feel very encouraged.
Liu Fusheng's words were full of admiration and expectations for Liu Tielin, which made him more confident and determined to work hard and strive to gain a foothold in the city.
In this era, being able to go to the city to become a worker and get a job with government pay is undoubtedly a great honor and security for most people.
Moreover, in Liu Tielin's case, it is even more rare for him to have the opportunity to be promoted to a higher position after becoming an official, because the idea of officialdom has been deeply rooted in the minds of the Chinese people since ancient times.
This means that they not only have a stable job, but also have corresponding welfare benefits, which is of great significance to the family and society. In the past, people in rural areas often faced difficult living conditions and low-income job opportunities.
Most of the villagers have been farmers working in the fields for generations, and only a few can break free from their shackles and escape from their identities.
Now, with the acceleration of urbanization, farmers are beginning to have the opportunity to work in cities and become part of the working class.
These workers not only have a stable income, but also have the opportunity to enjoy various welfare benefits provided by the government. This is undoubtedly a huge change and progress for them.
So everyone was really envious of Liu Tielin for being able to go to the city and become a police officer. They were asking around, wondering if the Red Star Factory Security Department would recruit people in the future.
"Tie Lin! Brother Zhiye from my second uncle's family, will he come back today?" An anxious brother asked urgently.
"Yes! Yes! Is Brother Zhiye coming back?" someone echoed.
When Liu Tielin saw this scene, his heart tightened. He realized that he was about to cause trouble for his elder brother.
However, when he saw those pairs of eager eyes, they were all his brothers, he knew that he could not talk nonsense.
A group of tribesmen, seeing him hesitant and unsatisfactory in speaking, said to him, "What's the matter, Tielin! You have become successful, so you don't care about the lives of your brothers, right?"
"Yeah, it's no big deal. I'm not asking you for help. I'm just asking for clarification for my brother. What are you hesitating about?" Another brother of the same clan said.
"I think I've figured it out. They are a family, and our relationship is far from that." Glancing at the scene of the crowd attacking him, Liu Shulei saw the opportunity and took advantage of it to add insult to injury.
He continued to mock Liu Tielin, saying, "He is a city guy now, and he has long looked down on us country folk." His words were full of disdain and contempt, as if there was an unbridgeable gap between city people and country people.
When Liu Tielin heard this, he was furious. His eyes widened and he immediately rolled up his sleeves, looking like he was going to teach the other person a lesson.
Even though they are brothers from the same clan, they have been playing together since they were young, and it is common for them to fight when they get angry.
Then, he was stopped by Liu Fusheng.
"Tie Lin! Stop messing around. If you beat him up during the New Year, Uncle Six will come to your house to hold you accountable."
When Liu Tielin heard this, his expression suddenly changed and his anger obviously dissipated a lot.
This Sixth Grandpa is not an easy character to deal with. He is the "hard-working person" in the village. If you confront him head-on, you will only get into trouble. He is the kind of person who will argue even if he is unreasonable, which makes people feel helpless.
So he stopped showing off in front of these people and walked away with a stern face and a shaky face.
"Hey! Hey! Why are you leaving? You haven't even finished talking. Do you want to give me a definite answer?" Liu Shulei became even more excited and challenged him triumphantly behind him.
Liu Fusheng went up to him and slapped him on the back of the head, scolding him: "Come on! Stop making trouble. If you make me angry, I will not tolerate your bad habits."
He was the captain of the militia, and his style was sometimes a bit rough, but this was not uncommon in today's era and was understandable. Under the right circumstances, he could deal with a few people, and I believe others would have nothing to say.
……
Noon, Liu family ancestral home.
The seafood, pheasant, half lamb and other ingredients brought by Liu Zhiye were really surprising. It had been a long time since the relatives in my hometown had seen such a sumptuous banquet.
At today's lunch, these two tables of fragrant pots became the protagonists. One table was a sumptuous feast for the gay men, and the other was an exquisite enjoyment for the lesbians.
Because there were so many people, my aunt separated the men and women so that everyone could have the opportunity to taste these delicious dishes.
The family sat around the dining table, enjoying the aroma of delicious food, when suddenly, Liu Tielin, with a shameful expression on his face, carefully picked up the wine glass.
"Brother! Tielin, I'm sorry for causing you trouble today."
Liu Zhiye was slightly stunned when he heard this, and asked with some curiosity: "Brother, where did you get this from?"
