Xue Qianchi's new clothes were finally made, and the moment he put them on, his tears started to flow. Xiaowen hugged him and scolded him, wiping his tears, and pointed at his forehead with his finger: "You useless guy, it's just a new set of clothes, good days are waiting for you in the future!"

Xue Qianchi nodded vigorously. This was the first time he had worn new clothes since he could remember. He didn't expect that his biggest supporter in this life was not his parents, but his own brother! Thank you, mother, for giving him such a reliable brother!

Xue Lili looked at the clothes on Xue Qianchi thoughtfully. Xue Qianren in this life and in her previous life were two completely different people. In fact, they were different. She had already known it, but it was the memories of her previous life that made her dare not let down her guard.

Many things were different from the previous life. For example, the movement of sending educated youth to the countryside, which should have started long ago, has not had any impact until now. On the contrary, due to the expansion of some factories such as garment factories, some ambitious and educated young people in rural areas were recruited to the city. Xue Lili suddenly became motivated - was she born worse than others?

In fact, the difficulties are significant. Of course, this is not aimed at Xue Lili personally, but at the entire country. In the face of disasters, a large amount of foreign exchange earned from foreign trade was converted into food and transported back to the country, which greatly alleviated the drought and famine across the country. Well, the expansion of factories also led to many doubts: Can communism and capitalism be mixed together? In addition, a large amount of arable land requires a large amount of manpower. Food problems cannot always rely on imports. The iron must be hard to forge!

In 1958, the first 54 crawler Dongfanghong tractor of New China rolled out of the factory, which was the first key step in my country's agricultural mechanization and ended the history of relying on cattle for farming. However, the contradiction between industrial expansion and insufficient human resources still exists and has even intensified. More people are willing to study, but fewer are willing to return to the countryside.

Limited to the reminder of that letter, the relevant leaders hesitated to call on young people with lofty ideals in various villages to go to the countryside to participate in construction. At the end of 1959, after investigation and discussion by all parties, the collective system was still not changed, and it did not directly move to individual ownership as Xue Yaya expected.

The work point contracting system of Linjiazhuang production team was promoted, and the threshold for the working class was also raised. People with relevant education below high school could not work in civil service. It must be admitted that small peasant consciousness still occupies a dominant position in various construction projects in our country to a large extent. People with primary school or junior high school diplomas were recommended to various production teams to work as manipulators, and were given the title of "glorious manipulators" by the organization.

Alternative foods have been produced, and there are various subsidies for robots going to the countryside. There are quite a few talents with less than junior high school education. Wu Jinjun and Tian Lianming shook their heads at this policy, saying it was like drinking poison to quench thirst. But the current situation has indeed eased, because of the debate between communism and capitalism. As an honorary cadre of the outstanding production team leader, Lin Baoyi said at the commendation meeting: "We have experienced war and exploitation. I am an old farmer who can't read a word, but I only know one thing, that those who till the land own the land, and the people will not go hungry. This is the most real superior doctrine."

Xue Yaya taught him to say this. Some of the leaders were dissatisfied, while others were thoughtful. Then Lam Pou-yee said, "Of course my family and I are staunch communists. We have enjoyed the blessings of communism and are enjoying them. Who can deny the superiority of our communist system?"

"Big Brother, if you can't read, stop talking nonsense!"

The question now is whether the current system of promoting industrialization is in conflict with the communist system. However, today's meeting is clearly a commendation meeting!

Big brother Lam Pou-yee just smiled good-temperedly at some people's dissatisfaction, took the certificate back, hung the photo in the middle of the hall, and even sent a copy back to his hometown. People from the same village went to see it, but they didn't expect that not long after, the photo of Lin Fubao and others with the leaders was sent back. Seeing the envious eyes of the team members, Lin Liqiang was very proud. Xue Libai, who came over after hearing the sound, found the compliments in his ears very ironic. He felt empty in his heart, but he had to force a smile on his face, and for a moment he was a little hideous. Xue Lili was also watching, looking at the expression of her second uncle, she curled her lips - throwing away the watermelon to pick up sesame seeds, pushing the most promising son out.

When she returned home, she looked back at the photo. The person in the photo was smiling like a flower, but what about her? Should she stay where she was?

Xue Qianzhong and Xue Qianhua were admitted to high school this year, Xue Qianchi was also admitted to junior high school, and she was also admitted to junior high school this year, but her grades were average, so she just barely passed. She was not stupid, and she studied hard, but she always resisted using the materials prepared by Xue Yaya and the others, and just memorized and wrote by herself. Now that she thinks about it, she doesn't understand the meaning of her persistence.

In the Linjiazhuang production team, the form of work points distribution according to work was promoted throughout the country. It replaced the original habit of distributing work points according to male and female, young and strong, old and young. The essence of the collective enterprise has not changed. There are many voices, but they are eventually replaced by other voices.

The production team soon received a tractor equipped with two interchangeable sleds and a harvester. As for fuel consumption, according to different seasons, you can go to the supply and marketing cooperative next to the county center to get it. This is a special supply for the Linjiazhuang production team.

Xuelili looked at the busy harvesting scene in the field and silently took the prepared lunch out of the basket. Because of the busy harvest, the school had a few days off. She took the cooking job spontaneously. Xiaowen wiped the sweat off his face with a towel, and his face was red from the steam. Xuelili quickly took her towel and ran to the ditch next to her to scour it. It was cool and shady, and Xiaowen smiled with satisfaction - his daughter is so considerate now!

“Is there sugar in this mung bean porridge?”

Xue Lisong took Xiao Wen's towel and wiped himself. It was the busy farming season, so both the school and the factory were closed, and the main thing was to make food. The difference was that the school was closed, while the factory had a rotation of rest days.

"Yes, it was sent by Lord Shanhong. The young man brought the package back from the post office yesterday."

Xuelili also made a bowl of mung bean soup for Xiaowen, and naturally took Xuelisong's towel and washed it twice. Xuelisong asked, "Does your Lord Shanhong have anything else to say?"

"Let us open the windows for ventilation, and help replace the straw when we replace the roof."

Xuelili also brought out a plate of cucumbers. Xuelisong asked, "Have you shared them with your grandparents?"

"It's divided. Second Aunt wanted it, but I cooked less, so she didn't give it to me."

"Cook more tomorrow. It's just a matter of adding two more bowls of water."

Xiaowen taught his daughter: "There's no need to worry about this."

Xue Lili was stunned for a moment, then nodded. After Xue Qianzhong and Xue Qianhua finished their meals, Xue Lili cleaned up the dishes and was about to go downstairs. Xue Qianhua frowned and said:

"You are not needed at all! Go back and wash the pots and dishes, and read some books! The information Yaya and the others provided is quite good."

Xuelili hummed in a depressed tone. The elder brother and the younger brother were still very "cold", but they seemed different from what she remembered.

"I'll go back and take a look."
