Rebirth after the 1950s

"it is good"

Now that my son is still young, he won’t be able to eat this food next year no matter what, but he still needs to save more.

"Mianmian, do you have enough food? Why don't you wait until the food is distributed before the Chinese New Year to buy more?"

"That's okay. Although this year plus my son's rations and the food we will receive with work points, it may seem like a lot, but we both have a big appetite, so let's buy some more!

"You watch and buy it. We eat it ourselves and we don't sell it on the black market. It's usually not a big problem."

"Don't worry! I know what I know"

"I'll go back to the army the day after tomorrow. I won't be back for a while. You can take care of yourself at home. If anything happens, ask your aunt to help you. You can't go out until you are pregnant, you know? It's not that cold outside now. , but you can’t get confinement disease.”

"Don't worry! I know it well. When I return to the army, I will bring a few bags of candy and share them with everyone. Although there are not so many red egg slices now, let's share the candy and let everyone feel happy."

"no problem"

"By the way, Third Brother, please put the bad sweet potatoes in our house! When Auntie comes, we can steam them and eat them."

"Okay, let's go and grind the corn in the bag into flour early tomorrow morning."

In this way, the third brother stayed at home for half a month and returned to the army. Although it was only a mountain away, he could not come back every day.

Another thing is that he can have half a month's leave this time because his superiors took special care of him. If he goes back this time, he won't be able to come back before the end of the year.

"Li Zhiqing, if you need anything from your aunt, just ask her directly."

"Auntie, don't worry! I won't be polite to you."

"You're welcome, don't be polite, you come and go as you please."

"Who said no!"

In this way, during this confinement, I was taken care of by my third brother for the first half of the month, and my sister-in-law from the production team took care of me for the second half of the month. I was done.

After confinement, I took a quick shower and washed my hair, not to mention how wonderful it was.

My aunt looked at it and said: "Does your body feel lighter?"

"Yes! I feel so comfortable after washing."

"That's right, but after you finish washing this time, you can't wash frequently in the future. This is winter after all. Once you catch a cold or something, the child will also catch a cold. The child is still young now, so try not to let him get sick, you know?"

"Don't worry! Auntie, you know what you are doing."

"That's good, then my aunt won't come over tomorrow."

"Okay, aunt, here's the three yuan and a pack of brown sugar we agreed on."

"Aunt Brown Tang, take it, I don't want the money anymore."

"That's not okay. Auntie, if you are like this, if something happens again in the future, you don't dare to use auntie. Besides, if you let the villagers know, isn't it a stab in the spine?"

"Okay! You're welcome, Auntie, but I'll only take one dollar, and you can't ask for more."

"Okay! Auntie, in that case, there are still a few notebooks and pencils at home. Take this one for your children. It is for children to study."

"Then my aunt won't be able to be with you."

"Why are you so polite?"

Time passed very quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was early May 70, and the child was six months old.

Since the brigade started working, I have brought my children to the fields.In other people's homes, a child of this size would either be placed in a backpack or spread out on a mat on the ground.

But he asked the carpenter on the team to make a small car early on.You can sit on this car or lie down on it to sleep.And this car is not too small, even my own children can fit two little ones in it.

At the same time, there is another one at home that is slightly larger than this one and can sleep three or four people. This one is mainly placed in the yard to let him grow up a little so that he can play inside without delaying his own work.

There is also a layer under the trolley where you can put a quilt, wife, diapers, etc.

My son is relatively quiet compared to other children, but he has a very bad temper. If something doesn't go his way, he will howl as hard as he can. I have corrected him several times, and the current results are pretty good. Correction from time to time.

"Li Zhiqing, why don't you go over and take a look at the steamed buns?"

"No, he has done this several times. He must want to play with him by himself."

“This kid has such a loud voice.”

“Really not small”

When Steamed Bun saw that his mother didn't come over, he stopped howling. For him, the outside world is really big now. There are many people, many of whom he doesn't know, but they look fun.

Just like that, I took my children and started working.

Shen Bowen and his wife, who lived in the cowshed, also took a few glances at their eldest grandson from a distance. Even though they wanted to go up and hug him, they never came.

For them, being able to see their grandson from a distance is better than anything else.

In the eyes of all the fellow villagers in the brigade, they were the first to be transferred to their place, and they had the least sense of existence. They never thought that other people who were transferred would make a fuss if they had nothing to do.

It wasn't until a few years ago that the authorities either arrested them and paraded them on the streets or criticized them, so they stopped. But now they are all working there honestly.

This year the family also raised two pigs, one for work and one for the family. Since the family is not short of money, they will not sell half of the other pig to the supply and marketing cooperative like other families, or secretly sell it on the black market. .

Last year, the two pigs at home were captured and killed by Uncle Captain's help.

Because I am a lesbian with a child, it is inconvenient for gay men to eat at home. Even though the aunt and sister-in-law of the captain's uncle's family are there, in order not to miss the cake, I gave the captain's uncle's family five kilograms of meat.

At the same time, when the third brother comes back, ask him to take two bottles of wine to the captain's uncle's house to express his thanks.

I find that I am much more relaxed here than when I was in Fusong County before. No matter when, I feel that I am an out-and-out countryman, and no one cares about anything else.

Although I brought my child to work this year, I don’t work as carefully as I did when I was pregnant with the child. Now I can do whatever I want.

When my son can speak, not to mention the rations, the work points he earned this year will be enough to feed him for more than half a year.

Starting in 68, a large number of educated youths went to the countryside. A few came from the brigade almost every year. There were also educated youths who came back to the city through connections, but most of them stayed in the countryside.

Not to mention the old educated youth, the new educated youth who came to the countryside in 68 now accept the reality and work conscientiously. Although they don’t earn much, in any case, it is more than enough for themselves.

Some educated youths can still subsidize their families to a greater or lesser extent, but they work honestly. However, as long as a group of educated youths comes, even just one, there will still be some trouble.
