Exciting 1979!

Chapter 130 The Old Ghost and the Little Girl (Guaranteed 1 Update)
Amin's mother saw her daughter jumping away but did not stop her.

She was still very confident in Ah Gui. Last year, when she was sick and hospitalized, her daughter brought her food at night. When she was leaving the hospital, she was harassed by a drunk man. It was Ah Gui, the hospital security guard, who stepped forward. Although he was old, he was upright and strong, and he easily drove the drunk man away.

After I was discharged from the hospital, the other party helped me a lot as I was an orphan and a widow.

Ah Gui is illiterate. He claims to be a soldier who followed Chiang Kai-shek to Taiwan. He asked Amin for help in writing letters to his family members who stayed in the mainland, and the contact address he left was her home.

Zhou Huimin’s home is not far from Queen Mary Hospital, and can be reached by taking a winding mountain road.

She was very curious about the contents of the letter all the way. At the age of 13, this was her first time communicating with someone from mainland China.

However, the sender and address were not what he wrote, but Wei Ming, Peking University.

What is the relationship between this person and Gui Bo?

Also, is this Peking University the legendary Peking University, one of the highest-ranking universities in mainland China?

Could it be that Wei Ming is a Peking University student? His handwriting is indeed good, but I heard that the mainland uses simplified Chinese characters, so how come he can also write traditional Chinese characters?

When they arrived at Queen Mary Hospital, Uncle Gui was on duty at the gate. He was very tall and Zhou Huimin saw him at first sight.

She waved at Gui Bo, holding a letter in her hand.

The poker-faced Gui Bo immediately showed a different look.

He ran out quickly: "Yes, is it a reply from the other side?"

"It should be a letter for you, from the mainland, but the sender and address are not correct," Zhou Huimin said, "Do you want me to open it for you?"

Gui Bo took the letter and glanced at it. Wei Ming? Peking University?
He shook his head: "No, I'm still working. I'll ask my colleagues to help me after get off work. Thank you, Amin. Go back quickly and don't let your mother worry."

Zhou Huimin couldn't believe it. You asked me to write the letter, but you asked someone else to read it, right?

"Really? I can help you write your letter after I finish reading it." She said eagerly, eager to help.

"Really, there's no need." Gui Bo was very strong and helped her bicycle and the others to turn around. "Go back quickly. It's not safe in the dark."

Zhou Huimin snorted, and was obviously disappointed because she didn’t see other people’s letters home. She will never write letters for you again!

Seeing the little girl walk away, the old ghost returned to his post and opened the letter with trembling hands.

The first sentence is Wei Ming’s self-introduction.

Grandson? The eldest grandson of the Wei family!
But Xiu'er has passed away? She was not even sixty years old! Gui Bo's face was filled with sadness. After all, his letter was too late.

However, seeing that Goudan was doing well, Gui Bo was finally relieved. Moreover, this naughty boy now has a son and a daughter. Although he has no great prospects, both of his children are good. His granddaughter is a good student, and his eldest grandson has become a writer with some fame. He is only 19 years old. This is already amazing. No wonder he was the one who replied and replied the letter.

The grandson also mentioned Gousheng’s situation. Gousheng was even more amazing. He was admitted to Peking University and served in the army. He was a man of both civil and military talents!

But A Yan is no longer here!

You two must have suffered, Gui Bo's eyes became cloudy.

The people from the past are no longer here, and things have changed!

At the end of the letter, Wei Ming wrote, "We are thousands of miles apart, and I am very happy to communicate with you. I hope to hear more about you."

Seeing this, Gui Bo's heart trembled violently. Did he guess it? !
After reading the letter twice, Gui Bo was thinking about how to reply.

When Zhou Huimin returned home, her mother immediately asked, "How is it? What did the letter say? Is Gui Bo's family all right?"

Zhou Huimin said angrily, "Uncle Gui didn't let me read it at all. He said he would ask a colleague to help read the letter after get off work, and then sent me back."

The mother thought for a moment and said, "Maybe he is embarrassed to cry in front of you."

"what?"

"I have been out of touch with my family for so many years. I just received a letter from them. My emotions must be very complicated. It is inevitable that I will cry."

"Can a man that old cry?"

Mom: “Men are people too.”

Zhou Huimin thought about it and it made sense.

If she doesn't want to watch it, then she won't. She thought of another important thing: "Mom, can we watch TV for a while? Today they are rerunning The Bund."

"You've already watched the first episode, why are you still watching it? Hurry up and finish your homework. It will take at least an hour before you can watch it," said the mother sternly.

Amin: "But I also have homework to do during the day."

Mom: "But you watch TV during the day, too."

"It will be over in an hour~" Zhou Huimin muttered, but still took out her schoolbag obediently.

Suddenly, she remembered that one of the winter vacation homework items assigned by the teacher was to "make a pen pal", preferably one outside Hong Kong Island.

There were many students who left their names and addresses in a student newspaper to look for pen pals, some from Hong Kong Island, some from outlying islands, and some from Kowloon, and the students all planned to choose from them. However, some students said they wanted to find pen pals in Taiwan or Singapore.

As for pen pals, the farther and more unfamiliar they are, the better. Zhou Huimin stood up and took a look at the world map at home. She measured it with a ruler and found that Yanjing was very far away from Hong Kong Island and was almost the same distance as Singapore.

So Zhou Huimin returned to her seat, took out a piece of letter paper, and began to write: "Wei Ming: Hello, I am a high school student in Hong Kong. You can call me Amin. Can we be friends..."

An hour later, the mother looked at Zhou Huimin and found that she was still doing her homework with her head down. It was really rare. She smiled slightly, looked at her husband's tablet and clasped her hands together.

"I don't ask Amin to be rich, I just want her to be healthy, to be admitted to university, to find a man who treats her well, and to have children... Oh, it seems a bit greedy. I know you are not that capable, but this is what you owe us mother and daughter. You should figure it out yourself down there."

……

Before dark, Wei Ming and Liu Rulong returned to Ping'an County, and then they went back to the home of Liu Rulong's grandfather Yang Songqiao. Wei Ming formally thanked the old man for the snuff bottle he had given him last time, and Melinda treasured it very much.

A-Long's mother, Teacher Yang Shuting, was also there, and Wei Ming asked her about Wei Hong's academic performance.

According to Teacher Yang, "She has always been very good at English and is my class representative. She has also made great progress in other subjects recently. Thank you for the study materials you brought back from Yenching. The overall improvement of our No. 1 Middle School students is very obvious."

Wei Ming said modestly: "It's good to be able to help. For their generation, going to college is a very important opportunity to change their destiny."

As usual, he did not stay long. He got on Mr. Yang's motorcycle and headed towards home. This time he did not have much stuff with him, and many of the things he wanted to buy were brought back in advance by his parents.

As soon as Wei Ming left, A Long was called into the room by his mother.

She told her son: "We won't go back to Foshan for the New Year this year."

Aaron: "Is it because of Dad?"

Mom nodded: "Dad is not here, and I am not familiar with his cousins. What is there for me to go back?"

Aaron nodded: "Okay, Mom, I can make money now, don't worry, I will go to Hong Kong to bring Dad back when the time comes!"

Yang Shuting touched her son's head and said, "Good boy, you have grown up."

"I also want to thank Ah Ming. He is the one who taught me. Mom, you don't know how powerful he is now!"

"I know. Almost everyone in our school has seen The Horse Herd."

"No, no, no, he's much more powerful than that!"

You don’t even know Wei What and Wei Kuang Ren!

This time, Wei Ming's motorcycle ride back to Gouzitun attracted almost no attention.

After all, the weather was cold and there was no electricity in the village. There was almost no one on the streets after dark. And this time Wei Ming did not go through the village, but went straight back to his home on the edge of the village.

When she heard the sound of the motorcycle, the door of her house opened immediately. Wei Hong, with two pigtails, shouted in surprise, "Brother!"

Wei Ming pushed the motorcycle in, and his mother Xu Shufen came out with a smile: "I knew you were coming back today, and I've been waiting for you to have dinner."

Wei Ming glanced at the newly built west room and the pigs in the pigpen and said with a smile, "I guessed you were waiting for me, so I didn't agree to Mr. Yang's invitation to dinner."

Wei Jiefang said excitedly: "Xiao Ming, do you think we should open Moutai or Shengui Yangrong wine today?"

He had been craving for these two high-end wines for a long time and had been waiting for a formal occasion.

It was a bit cold, Wei Ming rubbed his hands and said, "How about some vodka? It's strong and warms you up."

"Okay, let's drink vodka!"

Speaking of vodka, Wei Hong thought of her father's face showing off the way they ate at Lao Mo. It was too much. She was the only one in the family of four who had never eaten Western food!
No, I have to get into Peking University as soon as possible!
Today's meal was very rich, with eggs and meat. My mother also opened a bottle of canned fruit that Wei Ming had left behind.

Wei Ming praised his mother's cooking skills: "It's much better than the school cafeteria!"

Wei Hong asked hurriedly: "How is the Peking University cafeteria compared to the county middle school cafeteria?"

Wei Ming: "That's definitely better than the county. There's basically no meat in the food in the county."

Wei Hong breathed a sigh of relief: "Then I feel relieved."

Wei Ming smiled and said, "You are so confident about getting into Peking University, but it doesn't mean you will definitely get into Peking University just because you rank first in your grade."

Wei Jiefang said proudly: "This time the final exam ranked the whole county, and Xiaohong got first place!"

Wei Hong added: "And he's far ahead of the second place!"

During the movement, almost every commune had a high school department. Some of them were later closed, but there were still four commune high schools, and there were two high schools in the county town. There were six high schools in one county. It was very impressive that Xiaohong could get the first place, basically reaching the level of Uncle Ping'an back then.

"Oh," Wei Ming said with a smile, "I will wait for you at Peking University next year. If you are admitted to Peking University, I will reward you with a bicycle."

Wei Hong's eyes suddenly lit up.

Wei Ming was also very happy: the old car finally had a successor!
My sister said excitedly: "Brother, don't wait until next year, I want to get into Peking University this year!"
