She lived with Xia Mingshuang's family, but there was no conflict. Xia Mingshuang and Gu Yunshan didn't dislike her at all, and the children also liked her. However, for the sake of her children, she thought it would be good to occupy a house by herself and leave it to her children when she gets old.

Xia Mingshuang: "No, it's just fine if we live together."

The key issue she couldn't tell them was that even if the Gujialing area was to be demolished in the future, the villages would be merged into towns, so there wouldn't be much expense. In addition, after the reform, more and more young people went to the city to work and buy houses in the county. The villages became increasingly empty. It was easy and unnecessary to build a house at any time.

Nowadays, houses are built because the family is too crowded and needs to be divided. People have immediate needs, but the third sister's place is not an immediate need. It is more serious to save the money to buy a house in the city later.

The third sister is not slow in saving money now. Wouldn't it be better to go to Mingcheng to buy it then?

After entering the city, I chose a good location with complete supporting facilities and close to a tertiary hospital. It would be a good place for retirement when the time comes.

The third sister saw that Xia Mingshuang disagreed, so she didn't mention it again. She didn't want to move out anyway. As long as the eldest brother and Mingshuang didn't dislike her for a day, she wouldn't leave.

Besides, she also cares about a few children.

Xia Mingshuang didn't want the third sister to be single all her life. The third sister could find a suitable remarriage when she was still young and had the opportunity. When the time comes, she would have her own children and family, and her life would be more prosperous.

But finding a partner depends on fate, so there's no rush.

The twelfth lunar month is getting colder, but the mushroom greenhouse in Gujialing is warm. The women in the mushroom team still go to the mushroom greenhouse to stay warm while doing some needlework and taking care of the mushrooms.

The third sister and her shampoo production team have finally relaxed a bit after being busy for the past few months. After finishing the last batch, they decided to take a vacation and start over again after the second dragon rears its head in February.

Chang Aifen and others were still reluctant to rest, "The supply and marketing cooperative starts work on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, should we do it earlier too?"

Third Sister Gu: "No, Ming Shuang said we can't just work without rest. We won't start working again after February [-]nd. Let's take a good rest during this time. We will be very busy after work starts."

In addition to the previous day's wages of [-] cents, at the end of the year, the third sister gave them a bonus of [-] cents as requested by Xia Mingshuang, which was considered as New Year expenses for them.

The women were so happy that they were grinning from ear to ear. At first, their salary was [-] cents or [-] cents per person, and later it was raised to [-] cents. This is much more than the men earn. Now they are getting bonuses. Ming Shuang is really a good person.

Chang Aifen smiled and said: "My uncle is jealous all day long, saying that our production team does not allow men to come in and only allows women to make money, which is unfair."

Sister Gu San said: "This is what Ming Shuang meant. She said that the workload of this job is not that heavy at present, and we women are completely qualified. When you make money, men don't dare to look down on you, and they don't dare to follow you when you live your life." You guys are so arrogant."

A woman named Zhang Xiuying said: "That's right. My man used to scold me at every turn and scold me whenever he was unhappy. Now that I'm making money, he doesn't even dare to let it go."

Aunt Guixiang: "He has been sick all day long and did nothing, so he still has the nerve to scold you?"

Zhang Xiuying: "It's not that he doesn't work, it's just that he can't work when he's sick. He wasn't like this before. After he got sick, he got angry easily and his temper got worse and worse. Now that I'm making money and can feed the family, he It has improved a lot.”

Other women also said that their families' attitudes towards them have become much better.

Sun Yuqin said: "My mother-in-law always yelled at me, saying that she gave my family five yuan more as a gift than others, and she still nags her after she has given birth to two children. After I make money, I will directly take pictures of her. Six yuan, tell her to stop nagging her. Now she helps me take care of the children and cook. I give her two yuan a month as pocket money, and she keeps asking me for help all day long."

Everyone also knows the virtues of her mother-in-law.

Zhao Juying: "Don't feed her appetite. It's two yuan now, and four yuan later."

Sun Yuqin: "That's not possible. If she shows signs of that, I will give her a piece immediately. If she does that, I won't give her a piece. Anyway, the eldest baby no longer needs her to look after her, and she can still take care of her younger sister."

After the bonuses were distributed, the women held another heart-to-heart meeting. They all talked about their own difficulties and conflicts with men and parents-in-law, and others came up with ideas.

Sister Gu found that these people were also very interesting. In fact, their own problems were not that serious. They just couldn't solve them, but they could help others solve more troublesome problems. Each of their ideas was more subtle than the last. That is, they were just as good at solving their own problems. I'm at a loss for ideas and need help from others.

After the meeting, Third Sister Gu went home and talked about this matter with Xia Mingshuang.

Xia Mingshuanggang Supply and Marketing Cooperative has improved its accounting method. Now accounting is easier and faster than before. Therefore, Zhang Danping and Li Yaoyao no longer need to hire temporary workers to help, and Xia Mingshuang can rest normally after get off work.

Because the winter is cold, snowy and icy, the supply and marketing cooperative allows her to leave work early. Everyone arrives at 05:30 from 04 o'clock, and she can leave from 30 o'clock to [-]:[-].

Who allows people to contribute a lot but get a small amount of money?

After listening to the third sister's words, Xia Mingshuang smiled and said: "This may be because the authorities are obsessed with it. They are very sharp at seeing other people's problems, but they can't see clearly when it's their turn. Maybe it's not that they can't see clearly, but that they are not cruel enough to themselves. Just keep it lucky. Don't be responsible if you help others with ideas, and you don't need to bear the consequences of trial and error."

For example, if a woman is domestically abused by a man all year round, others will definitely say that she wants a divorce. Why don't you get a divorce?

But reality is often very complicated. If a person is always beaten, how could she not want to leave? Most people will want to run away when they are beaten for the first time. As for why they don't run away, it may be because they can't run away. It may be due to environmental factors.

It's complicated anyway.

Does she have the financial ability? In this era when all members of the commune have to earn work points, women can only work in the fields. There is no other way to make money to support themselves. If she doesn't have the strength to earn enough food, she will have to go hungry.

In short, it cannot be generalized.

Social progress, economic prosperity, and increasingly rich working methods can provide employment opportunities for the weak. This is the best way for them to escape their misery.

Just shouting slogans is useless, it will kill them.

On the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, the brigade election finally ended, and Captain Gu was appointed as the new captain of the Yangjialing brigade.

Party Secretary Yang took the initiative to shake hands with him and said, "Captain Gu, we will be partners from now on, and we must work together more."

Captain Gu was still a little worried, fearing that he would not be able to do well as the captain. "Secretary, if I don't do it well, you tell me. If it doesn't work, I can still go back to be the captain of the production team."

Party Secretary Yang: "..." You really don't have to be so practical.

The other captains and accountants applauded.

"Captain Gu, please stop being modest and lead the big guys to do your job."

"Yes, we obey you. If you can lead Gujialing better and better, you will definitely lead us better and better."

Captain Gu said humbly: "But we at Gujialing followed Comrade Gu Yunshan and Xia Ming to gain glory."

Didn’t you see that the Xiajiagou brigade all followed suit?
