60s Splendid Life

Lu Jin saw that Lu Boli brought Da Mao and Er Mao brothers to their house to play. He thought it was the school holiday and Lu Boli returned home. After asking, he found out that their school was closed, so he knew what was going on. After all, the wind was blowing to them.Hearing Lu Boli say that he had to go back to class when the school resumed, he couldn't bear to tell him that you might have to wait for many years.

History is still moving forward on its original track, and no one can change it.

At this time, many universities, primary and secondary schools in the city have suspended classes one after another. For various reasons, teachers and professors in many universities were beaten as scumbags and sent to local places to undergo labor and reform.And it's not just in academia, this movement has continued to expand to all walks of life, and many innocent people have been affected.

Lujia Village, hidden in a ravine, does not seem to be affected by this trend. The tofu workshop in their village is open every day, and the brick and tile factory in the back mountain is also open every day.

It is the slack season at this time, and the work in the field is not so busy. Many young and middle-aged people in the village have gone to work in the factory, digging soil, hammering, molding, and burning bricks. A batch of bricks and tiles came out in a few days, and batches of fired bricks and tiles were pulled by the village people on a cart to go home and pile them up for building houses.

There are more people building houses in the village, and there is a shortage of masons. Many people cannot find a mason in their own village, so they go to nearby villages to find masters, and ask relatives and friends to help build houses.It wasn't until this time that people in several nearby villages knew that Lujia Village had quietly opened a brick and tile factory!

Seeing that Lujia Village opened its own kiln and fired such beautiful bricks and tiles, wouldn't the people in the nearby villages not be envious?So someone came to Lujia Village and asked if they could come to their village to buy bricks and tiles.

"Everyone in our village is queuing up, and yours has to wait." When people in Lujia Village who were still queuing heard that people from other villages had come to their village to grab bricks and tiles from them, their own bricks and tiles I haven't waited to get it yet, how can I let people from other villages buy it!

The manager of the factory did not refuse the orders from the foreign village, took out the registration book, turned to the last registration page and asked: "If you want to make a reservation, it may have to be scheduled for next year, I wonder if you still want it?" Have you made a reservation? If you want to make a reservation, you need to pay a [-]% deposit to be considered a successful reservation. Do you still want to make a reservation?"

People from other villages saw it, my good fellow, such a thick book is almost finished, can their list be filled next year?

A few people from other villages came to look at each other, but still gritted their teeth and said, "Order!"

More and more people from other villages know that there is a brick and tile factory in Lujia Village, and they accept reservations from people in other villages. Compared with going further afield to buy bricks and tiles, it must be closer to Lujia Village to buy bricks and tiles Yes, many people who have relatives in Lujia Village asked their relatives to help them inquire about ordering bricks and tiles. Those who believed in Lujia Village signed up and gave the deposit first, but some people were afraid that they would not be able to get the deposit if the time came. When I arrived at Zhuanwa, I was not in a hurry to sign up.

But despite this, the registration in the notebook in the steward's hand was completed within a few days.

Seeing that there were too many people who signed up, the manager of the factory reported the matter to the team leader.The team leader, the secretary, and the team leaders held a meeting together and decided to suspend the subsequent registration, and wait until all the shipments of this batch have been shipped before accepting the second batch of reservations.

After hearing this news, those who were hesitant and did not register regretted it so much, and those who had already made the reservation were extremely grateful that they managed to register.

After receiving so many orders, the factory increased its horsepower every day to burn bricks and tiles.

As soon as Lu Boli came to work in the factory, he was assigned to dig soil in the back mountain. On the first day he went there, he had blisters on both hands because of the non-stop digging.When he got home that night, his mother took embroidery needles to help him break the blisters and put medicine on them. The pain was so painful that he burst into tears.Although the work was hard and tiring, he went to the factory in Houshan early in the morning to work again the next day, and he never missed it every day.After working like this for a week, a thick layer of calluses appeared on the palms of both his hands, and there were no more blisters.

***

After the Mid-Autumn Festival on August [-]th, frost began to fall at night, and the weather became colder day by day. Many people took out the quilts and cotton clothes they had packed up last year.

But the kiln in their Lujia Village is still burning hot every day, and the workers can sweat out of the heat every day.

And at this time, scenes of parting were staged outside the train stations in major cities.

Groups of educated youths boarded green trains and were sent to rural areas across the country to support rural construction. Some of the young men and women voluntarily went to the countryside. They were full of enthusiasm and ambition and wanted to build a new countryside for the motherland. .But there are also some people who signed up to go to the countryside in desperation because they could not be assigned jobs in the city, and they cried all the way on the train.

Whether these young men and women are willing or unwilling, the train has taken them away, taking them to places they have never been before.Many people did not think that maybe they would never be able to return to the city for the rest of their lives.

At the beginning of October in the lunar calendar, the first batch of educated youths were sent to Qingcheng Town. After receiving the notice, the commune immediately arranged vehicles to send these educated youths to the following villages. Each village had arranged several people.

A few educated youths were also assigned to Lujia Village, a total of eight people, six men and two women.

"Captain Lu, I will hand them over to you, Captain Lu. Their grain and oil accounts have been transferred to your village brigade. From now on, they will stay in your village to work, and their food will also go from your team. If you have anything to do, go to the commune to find Secretary He." As soon as the man was thrown down, the tractor rumbled away, as if Captain Lu was afraid that he would return the man to them if he walked too slowly.

Captain Lu: "..."

The scene in front of him seemed to be similar. Lu Dequan wanted to kill the people in the commune who sent him, but he couldn't.Looking at the half-grown children who were not much older than his youngest son, his face was as dark as the bottom of a pot, and he couldn't lose his temper in front of the half-grown children!

The secretary and several small team leaders also faced each other face to face. Obviously, they did not expect the people above to do this suddenly.

But what can they do now, people have already been sent to them, and they can't go back yet.

Seeing the captain staring at them but they didn't speak, a few boys and girls who had just been sent to the countryside looked at me and I looked at you, an older boy stood up and said, "Captain, you Okay, my name is Zhang Kai, this is Chen Min, this is..." They all knew each other on the way here, Zhang Kai reported the names of the few people he remembered, and the forgotten ones said it themselves own name.

After everyone finished introducing themselves, Zhang Kai continued: "We are responding to the country's call to help build a new countryside. I hope that our arrival can help your village. I don't know how you plan to arrange us?"

A few milk dolls said to help them build a new countryside?Captain Lu almost laughed angrily when he heard this, but he couldn't laugh at this moment. He glanced at the bold young man and said, "Come with us, let's find you a place to live first." .”

"Okay, I'm sorry to trouble you." Zhang Kai carried his luggage, motioned to the others to bring their own things, and followed the captains Lu.

They are all children who grew up in the city. It is the first time they have come so far away from home. The eyes of two of the girls are still red. It is obvious that they have cried on the way. Boys should be careful. Some, a few boys also helped the two girls who saluted a lot to carry things.After coming to this strange place, they all knew that if they wanted not to be bullied by the people in the countryside, they, the educated youths, had to work together in order to survive in this strange place.

At this moment, these teenagers seem to have grown up in an instant.

Several people here came to the countryside for the first time. They saw a village entered by a dirt road, with fields on both sides. The houses in the village looked old and dilapidated. What surprised them was that they met along the way. New houses are being built in several places.

Walking behind Captain Lu, Zhang Kai observed the surroundings of the village and the person leading them along the way.

"Think about it, where can we arrange a place for them to live in our village?" The arrival of a few educated youths disrupted Captain Lu's steps, and he really had a headache as to how to arrange the food and accommodation for these half-grown children. , the superiors threw the people away and ran away, and they had to clean up the mess left behind.

What kind of work can such a 01:30-old child do?If Lu Dequan said it would be best to send them back where they came from, and help them work?What a joke!

The secretary replied: "A lot of people in our village are building houses recently. There should be vacant houses at home. Let's go ask and we should be able to find a place for them to live."

Captain Lu thought about it, and turned back to a small captain and said, "Ah, you go and ask, see if anyone is willing to lend out the house for them to live in temporarily."

"Okay, I'll go and ask." The squad leader who was named responded, and took another squad leader to find the house.

Their team leader and secretary came into their village with a group of strangers, and a few old people sitting at the door of the tofu workshop saw them and asked the team leader who these people were and what they did in their village.

"Third Uncle, why are you still sitting here in such a cold day, and don't go home." Captain Lu said hello to the elderly, turned his head to look at the half-grown children behind him, and pointed his finger. Cai said: "They are the people who will stay in our village in the future. Third Uncle, you recognize them. They will come and go in and out of our village in the future. Don't treat them as strangers and arrest them."

"No, no, our eyes are still sharp, hehe, these dolls look really energetic." Several old people recognized people with their eyes wide open, but it's a pity that people stood too far away, in fact, they couldn't see Clearly.
