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

The next day, Officer Xiaofang went to the textile factory to find Gu Chun and told her that the matter had been resolved.

"Comrade Gu Chun, the two elders of the Gu family and Wu Feng returned the bride price to the Tang family, but because they have backward ideas, they need to receive three days of education before they can go home."

"This is the 100 yuan compensation given to you by the Tang family. You don't have to worry. Several people from the Tang family involved in this matter should be sentenced and will not bother you again."

Gu Chun took the compensation: "Thank you, Officer Fang. If it weren't for your help, I don't know what I would have done."

"Serving the people is what we should do. You can come to us if you need anything in the future."

After returning home, the family had a meal and Uncle Gu said he was going back.

"Chun'er, now that the matter has been resolved, I will go back and come to see you when I have time."

Staying in the city these days, he also saw that the children were living a good life, with meat and vegetables in every meal, and he did not want to keep the children's food in vain.

"Uncle, please stay a few more days." Gu Xia seems to be much happier these days when the uncle is at home. Boys seem to have a natural respect for male elders, which is something that older sisters cannot give.

"Oh, I can't hold on any longer. You study hard and eat well. When uncle goes back, he will send you some food in a few days. You have to buy some food in the city. It's too expensive."

Gu Chun was not good at rejecting the kindness of his relatives: "Okay, uncle, don't bring too much weight. Bring pearls to play with."

"Hey, I got it."

Gu Xia felt a little reluctant to leave her uncle. He hadn't seen his father for a long time. Recently, having an adult male at home gave him a great sense of security.

But he also understood that his uncle could not stay with them all the time. The family still needed him and his sister to support him, so he did not try to retain his uncle.

Xiao Zhuzi, on the other hand, hugged his neck and refused to let go when his uncle left the next day. In the past few days, his tall uncle always held him and put him on his shoulders, letting him have a good time. Now he was reluctant to let go of his uncle.

Uncle Gu was very helpless. Looking at Xiao Zhuzi, his heart was full of love. He was so small, so cute, and exactly the same as his brother. He was also very reluctant to let go, and his eyes were a little red.

Gu Chun was helpless, the two of them were still inseparable: "Xiao Zhuzi, come here, my sister will make milk for you."

When Xiao Zhuzi heard her sister's voice, she stopped hugging her uncle and leaned forward and threw herself into Gu Chun's arms, giggling.

Gu Chun hugged him back and made a gesture, asking Gu Xia to quickly send the uncle away from Xiao Zhuzi's sight.

So it was only at night that Xiao Zhuzi discovered that his uncle was missing.

Gu Chun held him and searched around the house, and even lifted the quilt for him to take a look. Only then did Xiao Zhuzi accept the fact that his uncle was not here, and burst into tears on the spot.

"Don't cry anymore, little bamboo." Gu Chun coaxed the child and played with the calf.

Gu Dong made a face on the side: "Xiao Zhuzi is a crybaby, I'm really not ashamed."

Xiao Zhuzi was not convinced, stopped crying, pointed at Gu Dong and the eldest sister and muttered.

Gu Xia was very surprised: "Sister, is he complaining?"

Gu Chun also smiled: "I guess so, but I can't understand his baby talk."

The whole family was amused by Xiao Zhuzi, who made them laugh. Xiao Zhuzi looked confused and didn't understand why his brothers and sisters were laughing. He was infected and started to giggle in a babyish voice.

Soon it was the end of 1974, and the textile factories also began to have the New Year holiday. Gu Chun received a gift from the factory: a waxed duck, a box of cakes, a piece of fabric and some pork tickets.

Otherwise, they all want to be workers. This festive gift is really rich, enough to feed their family for a long time.

A few days before the New Year, Gu Chun took Gu Xia, Gu Qiu and Gu Dong, who were on winter vacation, to clean the house together.

Uncle Gu came with Gu Zhenzhu and gave them a large basket of vegetables and a bag of grain.

Gu Chun asked them to sit down and was shocked to see so many things. Uncle Gu could actually carry such a heavy amount of food here alone.

"Uncle." Gu Xia hurriedly came over to greet him. He missed his uncle so much.

"Uncle, you are here, what delicious food have you brought us?" Gu Dong is a snack foodie, and he was very curious when he saw that his uncle had brought a lot of things.

Gu Qiu hurriedly went to pour tea for his uncle and cousin.

Xiao Zhuzi stared at Uncle Gu for a while before he recognized the person. He hugged Uncle Gu's neck and drooled all over his face. Uncle Gu was quite happy to be kissed by him.

Gu Chun greeted Gu Zhenzhu: "Are you Zhenzhu's cousin? Thank you for reminding uncle what happened last time."

When Gu Zhenzhu came to her second uncle's house in the city for the first time, she saw that the cousin Gu Chun her father mentioned was indeed as he said. She was very good-looking, had a good temperament, and was a very neat person.

There are several other cousins ​​who are good-looking. After comparison, I found that she and Gu Dabao are not similar to them at all. Her father and third uncle are very ordinary in appearance, and as his daughter, they are not the same. He's just a little better.

"Hello, cousin, what happened last time was something I didn't do right. I hope nothing happened to you." Gu Zhenzhu looks more like her mother. She originally had a very heroic appearance, but when she smiles, she has two small dimples, which makes her look more like her mother. She looks sweeter, a little sweet girl.

Gu Chun immediately had a good impression of her: "I'm fine. Thanks to my uncle who reminded me, we were able to find the police comrades for help in advance. Oh, don't talk about this during the Chinese New Year. Cousin Pearl, I heard from my uncle that you have finished high school. Yeah?"

Gu Zhenzhu's smile was a little helpless: "Yeah, I graduated from high school, but it's of no use. I can't find a job."

Now all the jobs in the city have been taken away by relevant people. She is just a little girl from the countryside. No matter how many books she has read, it is of no use. Her mother said she should learn housework at home and do needlework, and if that didn't work, she would find someone to marry.

"It won't be useless. Don't worry, the books you have read will come in handy one day. Don't give up on yourself now."

Gu Chun wondered if he could help and find Gu Zhenzhu a job so that she could wait until the college entrance examination resumed. Otherwise, she was really afraid that she would get married if she didn't have a job in the past two years.

Gu Zhenzhu felt grateful after hearing this. Her cousin was the first person to tell her not to give up and that the books she had read were not useless.

People in the village said that her parents were stupid and spent so much money on her to go to school. In the end, she had nothing to do when she returned to the village. She was also very sad and felt that she was unworthy of her parents' love.

Fortunately, her parents didn't care about this. Her mother often said that she was uneducated and didn't understand anything, so she must be educated and literate so that she could have the opportunity to escape from the farm and not have to work in the fields.

"Cousin, I understand. I will not give up. I will continue to study." Since her cousin said this, she decided not to give up reading and studying. No matter what happens in the future, the books she has read will be in her memory. In my mind, it always comes in handy.

Uncle Gu on the side felt very relieved to see Gu Chun making Pearl happy with just a few words.

This child has been depressed because he has no job after graduation. He, a rough man, doesn't know how to comfort him. He is willing to raise a child for the rest of his life, but when he talks about it, the child becomes even more sad.

The eldest niece is still awesome, but she is just a few months older than Pearl, so she talks and acts like an adult.

With the vegetables and grain brought by Uncle Gu, and the festive gifts from the factory, the Gu Chun family is having a good time this year.

On New Year's Eve, the family gathers around a sumptuous table for a reunion dinner.

This is the first year since Gu Chunchuan came here, and the calendar on the wall has also turned a page, pointing to 1975.
