60s Splendid Life

The more recent the weather, the colder it is. On the day of the twelfth lunar month, dripping water turns into ice.

However, unlike previous years, many people in Lujia Village put on cotton-padded clothes. Although it was still cold, with thick cotton-padded clothes, this winter seemed to pass faster than before.Especially at the end of the year, the two factories in their village were rushing to work. The men and women in the whole village were basically working as long as they could work, and there were not many idlers in the whole village.

In the past, some old people in the village had nothing to do in winter, but since the factory gave them materials to make chicken feather poles, almost every elderly family went to collect chicken feathers to make chicken feather poles, and the children at home could help, At least a dozen chicken feather poles can be made in a day, and a handful costs five cents, and ten can earn fifty cents. If you do it every day, you can make more than ten yuan in a month.It's a pity that there are few chicken feathers in the factory, and there are too many people working, everyone is rushing to do it. Every time they go, they can only get a bag of chicken feathers back, and they can't make a few chicken feather poles. There is something to do, so this money is to make spare money.

But despite this, for these old people in the village who don’t have any income, they can earn a few cents by themselves, and they all have money in their pockets. Buy sugar for a penny, and you have it in your pocket.There are also some children who can do it and earn money for snacks.

When Lu Jiankang, Liu San, and Huang Mazi walked into Lujia Village with each other's support, they thought they had gone to the wrong place.These three people were dressed in rags, like beggars who walked into Lujia Village from the outside, and they were out of place in this village.

Or the people in the village recognized them, looking at their faces with some surprise, "Hey, isn't this Lu Jiankang, Liu San, Huang Mazi, you three? Are you back?"

Lu Jiankang was also thick-skinned. He didn't think it was a shame for them to come back from the labor camp for three years. He called his uncle and said with a smile, "It's us, we're back. Our village... when Has it gotten so good?"

The three of Liu Laosan and Huang Mazi didn't seem to know their own village. They twisted their necks and looked around. Seeing so many new houses, they forgot to close their mouths. The houses built in their village , the building is even more beautiful than the city.

"It's built." The man didn't want to talk to Lu Jiankang, so he glanced at him and left.

Seeing that others ignored him, Lu Jiankang was not angry. He said "Let's go" to Liu Laosan and Huang Mazi, and leaned on a cane with one hand, walked with a limp, and walked with Liu Laosan. Two people, Huang Mazi, went into the village together.

If they met people along the way, Lu Jiankang and Huang Mazi would greet them and ask them why their village has changed so much, and if something good happened to their village.

Everyone in Lujia Village still remembered the reason why these three people were taken away, so no one was willing to talk to them.

Soon everyone in the village knew that the three bastards who had gone to labor reform in their village had returned, and everyone was in danger immediately. Those who had money hurried home to hide the money carefully, and those who raised chickens and ducks hurriedly Close the gate of the yard, for fear that those bastards who came back will come to their house to steal things.

***

The work in the factory is busy recently, Lu Jin spends almost the whole day in the factory doing things, and also eats here at noon.Several children in the family were on winter vacation, and the three older children, sister, Lu Haochen, and Dandan, were brought by him to work as child laborers in the factory. Little Baoer and grandpa stayed at home, so the three older children at noon The children also eat with him in the canteen of the factory.

Because the three children are not regular workers in their factory, they have to buy tickets for meals. He bought the meal tickets and distributed them to the three children in advance. He can't necessarily go to the cafeteria to eat with three young children.

This day was the same. Lu Jin was the last group of people who came to the cafeteria to eat. When he found their three children with the food, the three children in their family were almost full.While he was talking to the three children, Lu Bowen, who came later than him, also sat down beside them with a lunch box, and asked him a very strange question: "Xiao Jin, do you know?"

"What do I know?" Lu Jin felt very strange. What should he know?

"Lu Jiankang, only your fourth uncle, and Liu Laosan Huang Mazi and the others are back." Lu Bowen had just returned from the outside, and people in the village said that Lu Jiankang had returned.He still remembered clearly how Lu Jiankang and Liu Laosan were sent to the labor camp back then.

"Ah, they came back so soon?" This Lu Jin really didn't know, he calculated the time in his mind, it turned out that more than three years had passed, but he remembered that Lu Jiankang was sentenced to five years. , why did you come back early?Did he remember wrongly?

This is really a bit troublesome. He thought that his good fourth uncle could stay in prison for a while, but he didn't expect to come back so soon.

"Well, yes, that's why I want to tell you that you should be more careful when you go in and out in the future. I'm afraid that Lu Jiankang and the others will come to trouble you." That's what Lu Bowen was afraid of.

"I know, I will tell my family when I go back." Lu Jin glanced at his three children. The expressions on the faces of his sister and Chenchen were full of panic and fear. The two children should still remember what happened back then. matter.But Dandan only came to their house the year before last, so he didn't know people like Lu Jiankang.

Knowing that Lu Jiankang and the others were back, Lu Jin was in no mood for eating that day. After eating, he patted the heads of the two children and asked them, "Do you want to go home first?"

Without waiting for his sister to speak, Lu Haochen said first: "No, we have to go back with my brother." They want to protect his brother and not let him be bullied by bad guys!

"En!" Lu Qinglian also nodded, they don't want to go back.

Seeing that her brother and sister didn't go back, Eggy naturally didn't leave either.

"Okay, let's talk about it when we go home. You go feed the cat first, then rest in the warehouse for a while, and stay in the warehouse to help pack in the afternoon." Lu Jin gave the cat food to her sister and ordered three A child went to the warehouse to listen to his cousin.

"Brother, we know." Lu Qinglian took the basin, took the two younger brothers out of the cafeteria, and walked towards the warehouse behind.

Lu Jin looked at the three siblings who had left, and knew that they would have nothing to do in the factory, so they stayed here in the canteen. After Lu Bowen finished eating, the two sat together and discussed about the factory. things here.

It gets late quickly in winter, and the factory gets off work half an hour earlier, at 05:30.

By the time the factory got off work in the afternoon, the sun had already set.

A group of female workers who got off work returned to the village together in groups, and they were very eye-catching on the road. The reason is that these female workers have dressed much more beautifully than before since they came to work in the factory. It is a new padded jacket made this year.

Lu Jin and several supervisors waited until all the workers in the factory had left, checked that there were no problems in the factory and warehouse, and closed the doors and windows before going back to the village together.

On this day, when he returned home with his three children, he saw a man standing outside their door.

When he saw each other, the other party also saw them.

Lu Jin noticed that the other person was still leaning on a wooden stick with a fork on it. It should be a walking stick. He remembered that he had broken this person's leg three years ago. Wanting to leave a way out for Lu Jiankang, he remembered that at that time he wished he could beat this person to death.As for why he wanted to beat this man to death... Oh, he remembered, because this man brought a knife to their house and robbed him. If he hadn't known that beating someone to death was against the law, he really wanted to beat him to death.

The two looked at each other, and Lu Jiankang also saw his nephew. They haven't seen each other for three years. How many nephews have grown up to this size?As if he didn't see the vigilance in Lu Jin's eyes, he put on a smile on his face and asked kindly: "Xiao Jin, you are back. I heard that you have become the director of the factory. I haven't seen you for a few years. A They've all grown so big, they're all grown-ups."

"Don't be nervous. The fourth uncle came here today to see you, and to apologize to you. The assholes that the fourth uncle did before... It is the fourth uncle who is sorry for you. From now on, the fourth uncle will not. The fourth uncle is here During the three years in the labor camp, I have been reflecting on myself every day, and I must be a good person when I come out. Don’t believe me, Fourth Uncle really thinks so.”

Would Lu Jin believe what Lu Jiankang said?He might as well believe that the sun will rise in the west!

Lu Haochen and Lu Qinglian stood beside their elder brother, one on the left and the other on the right, sharing the same hatred with their elder brother.

Eggy didn't know the person in front of him, but it didn't prevent him from knowing that his two brothers and sisters raised their faces when they saw this person, letting him know that the person in front of him was a bad person, so he subconsciously moved to the place. Going to his brother's side, he also looked at this person with the same alert expression.

Lu Jiankang looked at the strange child in front of him, and thought it was his lame little nephew. It had been a few years since this child grew up so big and his feet healed?Lu Jiankang was a little surprised, and then remembered that his foot was also lame, and remembered that his foot was broken by this cruel nephew.

Do you want to say that he doesn't complain in his heart?Not cruel?That must be resentment, hate.

But compared to resenting the nephews in front of him, he resented the person who caused him misfortune!Later, when he went to the labor camp, he remembered what he had done before, and realized that he had been targeted a long time ago. Those people tricked him into gambling, tempted him step by step into the abyss, and forced him to have nowhere to go. where it is today.
