Travel back to the 1970s and start as a female textile worker

Liu Fang's husband said anxiously, "Daughter-in-law, what's wrong with you? What's wrong with you?"

Seeing his panic, Liu Fang quickly grabbed him and whispered a few words in his ear.

That night, news spread to Liu Fang's home that she was seriously ill, and a telegram was sent to her daughter to come back and see her mother.

In fact, the couple was in the room, turning on their flashlights and collecting money.

Gu Chun guessed that the six hundred yuan was all their family's savings, but it was not accurate.

Their family doesn’t even have 600 yuan in savings!

Over the years, the family's expenses include sending something to their daughter every month and taking medicine for her mother-in-law's illness. Their total money now amounts to more than 300 yuan.

Although Gu Chun said that she could pay it back in installments, Liu Fang didn't want her to suffer a loss.

Her children have already helped her a lot, so how can she still owe her money?

Just when the two were at a loss what to do, Liu Fang's mother-in-law shouted from inside the house, asking the couple to go in.

With trembling hands, the old lady asked her daughter-in-law to open her cabinet and take out a jewelry box.

Liu Fang opened the jewelry box, and inside was a jade bracelet. In the past, this thing would have been very valuable.

It's just that in this day and age, it might as well be scrap metal. After all, it wouldn't be a good thing if people knew about it.

Liu Fang guessed what the old lady was going to do and said hurriedly, "Mom, this is the only jewelry you have left. Let's keep it. We'll figure out how to deal with the money later."

The old lady shook her head, "I won't live much longer. I originally wanted to leave this to our daughter as a dowry in the future, but now I need to find a job for her, so I'll use it. Just be considerate of my old lady. I feel sorry for my granddaughter too."

The old lady felt uncomfortable thinking about her granddaughter's body when she came back.

If it weren't for her illness, the family wouldn't be like this.

Her son and daughter-in-law were both filial, so she couldn't hold her back. This bracelet wouldn't be of much use, so she might as well give her granddaughter a job and let her go home.

Speaking of which, because of the old lady's love for her granddaughter, Liu Fang and his wife had no choice but to accept the bracelet.

The next day, Liu Fang went to Gu Chun and handed her more than 300 yuan and a bracelet.

Gu Chun looked at the bracelet and blinked. Was she right?

It's green, it's such a good color, even if she doesn't know anything about jewelry, she can tell that this thing is worth a lot of money.

Aunt Liu Fang explained, "I don't know the value of this thing, but it is her grandma's wish. She wants to use this bracelet to change her granddaughter's job. Let's see if it works."

That's great. Gu Chun was very happy. This thing seems worthless now, but it won't be easily bought in the future.

Just accepting this expensive thing like this, she felt a little guilty, "Auntie, this thing may be very valuable in the future, you can keep it, don't worry about paying me back."

Liu Fang gave her the things and money, "I don't care how much it will be worth in the future. Her grandma insisted on giving this bracelet to you. Just be considerate of the old lady's feelings. The old lady will be happy if she can change her child's job now." ."

After hearing this, Gu Chun was deeply moved by the old lady's love for her granddaughter, so she could only accept the bracelet.

"In that case, I will accept this bracelet and you can take back the money. In my opinion, this bracelet is already more than 600 yuan."

She insisted not to accept the money, and Liu Fang finally had no choice but to take the money back.

Gu Chun had a valuable bracelet in his bag. After work, he quickly took it home and hid it.

Soon, Aunt Liu Fang's daughter returned to Beicheng.

After worrying all the way, she realized that her mother was not really sick when she got home.

She was so moved that Liu Fang pretended to be ill and cursed herself, and that her grandmother took out her treasured bracelet just to find another job for herself.

The next day I went to the factory to take a test with the factory director.

She went to the countryside after finishing junior high school, and she had often read books over the years. However, she was not young anymore and did not have the energy to prepare for the college entrance examination, but it was still no problem to write a test paper.

She answered those questions well, and Factory Director Liu was also satisfied.

Gu Chun promised to take over the job with her and familiarize her with the work of the Propaganda Department, so they quickly completed the entry procedures.

She also returned to the city smoothly and no longer had to go to the countryside to do farm work.

The house is full of laughter and laughter every day, and even Aunt Liu Fang’s mother-in-law is so happy that she has recovered a lot from her illness.

Gu Chun took Aunt Liu Fang's daughter with him for a week and left his job smoothly.

Huang Xiuxiu's job was also sold to a relative, and her mother gave her the money from the job sale as living expenses for college.

-

The children visited the new courtyard house and were very satisfied with it.

Especially Xiao Zhuzi, he especially likes to have a small pond like Jiang Zhiyun's in his new home. He wants to raise small fish in it.

Professor Song volunteered to help them find someone to renovate the new house.

The house didn't have much damage to begin with, so in the end it only cost a few dozen dollars for renovations.

The rest is still the same, and Gu Chun wants to keep it as it is, antique.

Gu Chun started preparing to move. But first she had to deal with the two old houses.

The two houses in the courtyard were the staff rooms assigned to her father when he worked in the textile factory.

Although I spent a sum of money to buy it, the rights to use and live in it are not clear enough.

Gu Chun has resigned from the textile factory, and no one in his family is an employee of the factory.

The ownership of this house may have to be debated in the future.

So she planned to sell the house and recover the money her parents had spent to buy the house.

Since it is a staff housing, her best choice is to sell it to the workers of the textile factory.

This way the buyer will not have any other disputes.

The people living in this large courtyard are workers from nearby factories. Nowadays, it is important to have more children and more happiness. Some people have many children in their families and do not separate their families, so sometimes a family has several workers from different factories.

In recent years, the country's population has increased, housing space has become less and less, and factories have not built worker housing for a long time.

Many families live together in a small house, and it is not uncommon for a family of eight to live in a 16-square-meter house.

Gu Chun wanted to sell to such a family, which had textile factory employees and lacked housing space.

Aunt Guo was the steward of the compound. Gu Chun wanted to sell the house, so he went to her immediately, thinking about asking her if there was a suitable buyer.

Who knew that when Aunt Guo heard what she said, her eyes were so bright that she excitedly grabbed her hand.

"Are you serious? Those two houses in your house are for sale?"

Gu Chun nodded, "Yes, but it's not selling. We don't allow free buying and selling now. It's just transferring."

Aunt Guo was very happy, "I know, I know, it's a transfer. If you really want to transfer it, just give it to our family."

Gu Chun didn't expect that he would get the buyer just by asking, but...

"Auntie, isn't your house enough for you?"

Aunt Guo has two sons in her family. The current saying is that when the parents get old, they will take care of themselves with their younger son.

But they haven't separated yet, so the whole family still lives together.

Her house is a little bigger than Gu Chun's house, but it also has two rooms.

A large room is divided into two small rooms, where the eldest son and the second son's family live respectively.

Aunt Guo and his wife lived in the other room, and a small kitchen was separated from the remaining space.

So Gu Chun didn't expect that his family would also need to buy a house. It seemed that their family had a good relationship.

Aunt Guo is feeling miserable. To outsiders, it seems that the family is indeed on good terms.

But who knows if these people live together more, there will be more conflicts.

The younger daughter-in-law feels that her parents will live with them in their old age in the future, so now they need to give them an extra room for their children to live in.

The eldest daughter-in-law feels that her child is getting older and needs a separate room.

But the space at home is so big, there is no extra room at all.

The younger daughter-in-law meant that this house was a staff house allocated by Aunt Guo's husband, Uncle Guo, in the machinery factory, and it should belong to their family from now on.

I want my eldest son and his family to move out and rent a house.

The palms and backs of their hands are full of flesh. How could the old couple be willing to let their son and his family rent a house?

Now that Gu Chun's house is for sale, Aunt Guo suddenly becomes enlightened.

They can buy it, and then let the eldest son's family move in.

In this way, the children are still with the old couple, and the extra rooms in the house can be used by the children.

Isn’t the problem solved?

After hearing her complaint, Gu Chun sighed inwardly. He had promised to raise a child to provide for his old age, but as a result, the child had a family of his own and only thought about himself.

When old people grow old, they still have to worry about their children's affairs, worry about uneven distribution, and worry about their children's hardship...

Why bother?

If she has a child, she will definitely let her child be self-reliant and eat as much food as she can, and don't want to gnaw at her old age all day long.
