Chapter 306 The excited Jia family!
Chapter 306 The excited Jia family!
At about 1:00 p.m. the next day, in Jiajia Village on the outskirts of Sijiu City, a postman rode his bicycle to a dilapidated courtyard and shouted into the courtyard, "Jia Fuqiang! Is Jia Fuqiang home?"
"My father is at home, comrade postman, what do you want to talk to my father about?" Not long after the postman shouted, the door of the yard was opened. A young man walked out of the yard and asked the postman curiously.
When the postman heard the young man's question, he smiled and said to him, "Little comrade! Your aunt Zhang Cuihua asked me to pass a message to you saying that her son is getting married on Sunday and that you and your family should go to the city tomorrow to attend the wedding."
When the young man heard the postman's introduction, he showed a puzzled expression on his face and asked the postman curiously, "Comrade postman! My cousin passed away last year due to a work-related accident at the steel mill. He is now buried in the back mountain of our Jiajia Village. Could it be that my aunt found a live-in son-in-law for my cousin's wife?"
When the postman heard what the young man said, he realized that he had not expressed himself clearly, and he quickly explained to the young man: "Little comrade! Your aunt has more than one son, Jia Dongxu. The one getting married tomorrow is her eldest son, Jia Dongming."
After hearing the postman's explanation, the young man's puzzled face revealed a surprised expression, and he asked the postman, "Comrade postman! My eldest cousin got lost when he was very young. Did my aunt find him?"
The postman also lived in Tongluoguxiang, so he had heard something about the Jia family. Facing the young man's question, the postman smiled and nodded, and introduced the young man: "Little comrade! You guessed right, your cousin is indeed back, and now he is the security chief of the steel rolling mill, a deputy director-level cadre, and he will be back this Sunday!"
"Comrade postman! What did you just say? My eldest brother's nephew who had been lost for many years has been found? Is this true?" Before the postman finished speaking, an elderly middle-aged man walked out of the yard and asked the postman with disbelief on his face.
When the postman heard the middle-aged man's question, he immediately recognized him and introduced him to him with a smile: "Comrade Jia Fuqiang! Jia Fugui's son Jia Dongming, who was demobilized from the army not long ago and returned to Sijiucheng, is now the head of the security department of the steel rolling mill and a deputy division-level cadre."
"Jia Dongming is getting married this Sunday. Aunt Zhang Cuihua asked me to pass a message to you, asking your whole family to go to the city tomorrow to attend Jia Dongming's wedding."
When Jia Fuqiang heard the news from the postman, he learned that his long-lost nephew was not only successfully found by his sister-in-law, but also became a cadre. He was so excited that he quickly thanked the postman: "Comrade postman! Thank you for telling us this news. I will go to the village chief to get a letter of introduction. We will go to the city to visit my nephew tomorrow morning."
When the postman heard what Jia Fuqiang said, he smiled and said to him, "Comrade Jia Fuqiang! I have delivered the letter. I still have to deliver letters to other villages, so I will leave first."
When Jia Fuqiang heard what the postman said, he realized that he was so happy that he forgot to invite the postman to his house for a glass of water. He quickly said to the postman, "Comrade postman! You came all the way to bring us a letter, how could you not even have a glass of water? Please come in and have a glass of water before you leave."
When the postman heard what Jia Fuqiang said, he shook the kettle in his hand and said to Jia Fuqiang with a smile: "Comrade Jia Fuqiang! I won't drink this water. I'm leaving first. Goodbye!"
After watching the postman ride away on his bicycle, Jia Fuqiang immediately said to the young man, "Dongzhe! Let's go! Let's go to the village chief's house and get the letter of introduction. Tomorrow morning, our whole family will go to the city to attend your eldest cousin's wedding."
When Jia Dongzhe heard what Jia Fuqiang said, he immediately asked Jia Fuqiang, "Dad! My aunt wants our whole family to go to the city for a feast. Should we notify my brother and sister?"
When Jia Fuqiang heard Jia Dongzhe's question, he immediately nodded and said, "Dongzhe! The postman just said that your aunt asked our whole family to go to the city together, so of course she wants to invite your eldest brother and eldest sister's family." "After all, your eldest cousin was separated from your uncle when he was very young. Let's go to the city together tomorrow to meet your eldest cousin, so that you brothers won't meet each other in the city in the future without knowing each other."
"Brother Fuqiang! Why are you coming to my house so late in the afternoon? What's the matter?" A few minutes later, in Jiajia Village, at the village chief's house, Jia Fuchun saw the arrival of Jia Fuqiang and his son and asked them curiously.
When Jia Fuqiang heard the village chief's question, he immediately said to him, "Fuchun! My family and I are going to the city tomorrow. Could you please write us a letter of introduction?"
When Jia Fuchun learned of Jia Fuqiang's purpose, he showed a puzzled expression on his face and asked Jia Fuqiang curiously: "Brother Fuqiang! Although it is not the busy farming season now, why did your family suddenly want to go to the city?"
When Jia Fuqiang heard Jia Fuchun's question, he quickly introduced to Jia Fuchun: "Fuchun! The situation is like this. My sister-in-law asked the postman to bring us a message saying that my nephew who had been lost for many years has been found and is getting married tomorrow. Let's go to the city together for the feast."
When Jia Fuchun heard what Jia Fuqiang said, he was surprised and asked Jia Fuqiang: "Brother Fuqiang! Is what you said true? Has the child who was lost in Brother Fugui's family really been found?"
When Jia Fuqiang heard Jia Fuchun's question, he nodded subconsciously and replied, "Fuchun! That's what the postman told me. He also told me that my eldest nephew is now the security chief of the steel mill!"
Jia Fuqiang paused for a moment and asked Jia Fuchun curiously, "Fuchun! What is the rank of a deputy director? Do you know? The postman said that my nephew is now a deputy director."
When Jia Fuchun learned that Jia Dongming was the security chief of the steel mill, he was surprised. However, the question Jia Fuqiang asked next shocked Jia Fuchun so much that he quickly asked Jia Fuqiang, "Brother Fuqiang! Is what you said true? Is the eldest brother of Brother Fugui's family really a deputy director-level cadre?"
Seeing Jia Fuchun's reaction, Jia Fuqiang immediately realized that deputy division level must be an extraordinary level. Thinking that his family could produce a senior cadre made Jia Fuqiang feel extremely proud. Facing Jia Fuchun's inquiry, Jia Fuqiang answered very affirmatively: "Fuchun! That's what the postman told me, but what level of cadre is this deputy division level?"
When Jia Fuchun heard Jia Fuqiang's answer, he was also very happy to hear that their Jiajia Village had produced a cadre. He quickly introduced him to Jia Fuqiang: "Brother Fuqiang! The deputy director level is the same level as our commune director. He is the eldest son of Brother Fugui's family. This is the first cadre produced by our Jiajia Village."
"Brother Fuqiang! When you get home later, quickly prepare some incense, candles and paper money. Let's go to the ancestral tomb in the back mountain and pay our respects to our Jia family's ancestors. Tell them the good news and let them be happy too."
When Jia Fuqiang learned that Jia Dongming's rank was the same as that of the director of their commune, he was so happy that he nodded and replied: "Fuchun! You are right. This kind of good news should indeed be told to our ancestors, so that our Jia family's ancestors can also be happy together."
"Especially my eldest brother. After Dongming went missing, he has been brooding over this matter. Now Dongming has been found and has become the first cadre of our Jiajia Village. This good news should be told to him so that he can rest in peace in his grave."
