There is Room for Rebirth in the 1950’s

As soon as the school season came, seeing Ping An excitedly going to the nursery every day, Zhang Guoqing and Zhou Jiao started to pack their luggage and go to school again.

In one winter vacation, classmates and alumni changed a lot. After attending a semester, it can be regarded as having seen the world, and many people have experienced it when they return to their hometowns and schools.

Except for a small number of people, everyone gathers together, and behind the laughter hides more emotions.

Go home to visit relatives, get together with your family to celebrate the New Year, and enjoy family affection. This is a happy thing, but things are often not so simple.

The depth of the water is silent, and the people are stable. Talk shallowly and speak deeply, a gentleman is abstained.

This is the foundation of many smart people's way of doing things. Students who can be admitted to prestigious universities know how to speak carefully even if they are not in the personnel affairs, and several people have been expelled from several nearby universities.

Everyone knows that being expelled from school is too late in this life, and it will also implicate relatives at home. In school, you can tighten your belt, have surplus food to support your family, and graduate early to support your family.

No one is willing to open their mouths to talk about their own sad things, but after receiving food stamps, many smiling faces are often red and swollen eyes.

Electromechanical class 59 (1) was managed like an iron bucket by Zhang Guoqing and Yi Jiefang in the student union. With the help of several transfer students, it can be said that some troubles outside would not affect the class.

This time it was the same, the students in Class 1 in the cafeteria gathered together, no one talked about how the winter vacation was going, they all buried their heads in eating, and occasionally a few people who were active also talked about experimental problems.

The tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop, and soon there are bursts of complaints from all around.

A girl on the right sighed: Your metropolis is great, and you can still supply rich flour and polished rice. No matter how little it is, it's still white flour rice. For us, alas...don't say it, you will cry if you talk too much.

It's good for you to be close to the sea. My hometown is in a valley, and it was hard in those days. My parents, siblings, and sisters have never eaten white noodles. I got out of the car and bought five steamed buns with food stamps. In the end, I brought them back. I’m also reluctant to wear it. My younger brother left half of it for me to eat on the way until I came over.”

All of a sudden, the rustling of chopsticks stopped for a moment.

Let's go and cherish it. It's not easy to eat a bite now. After spring, with wild vegetables, everything will be fine.

The girl laughed at herself, Okay? Hehe...

The companion next to her comforted: The older generation even ate leather belts when they lived on the grass. There is nothing they can't survive. Life will only be better, and it will be worse.

The other party said in a low voice: When I came here, the village had already eaten grain husks. My youngest nephew was so hungry that he had a big head left, and he always said he was dizzy. Even the grain husks may not be able to eat until spring. This month I have to ask you for help.

Okay, I'll squeeze, you send it back in the afternoon.

The boy not far away heard it, frowned and said to his companion: I hate eating grain chaff the most. It's hard to swallow. Every time I finish eating, my gums are full of small burrs, and they go down one by one. When you pull it out, it hurts like hell when you touch it.

I didn't go back this winter vacation, and I don't know what's going on at home.

Don't worry, you Ada knows it well. He asked me to persuade you to eat more. There are old people at home, so he will make arrangements. When I come back, he also asked me to watch you, let you study hard, and graduate early.

Zhang Guoqing glanced at his classmates, and made a wink at Chaoyi Jiefang - it's not suitable to stay here for a long time, it's better to finish eating and leave early. Don't say what will happen to those who are interested in listening to these words, but they will really affect the mood of the students. He is worried that if someone can't control howling for a while, then the nature of the problem is very serious.

Yi Jiefang winked at him, he didn't want to leave now, he hasn't heard enough gossip yet. Staying in Forty-Nine City all day, he forgot what the outside world was like.

Seeing them whispering in code, Zhou Jiao looked at Zhang Guoqing's depression, and was both funny and sad for a while. It's really an old hen character, why is she so nosy.

Can she say that she also wants to know how the outside world is?

...Since your father said so, don't worry. The older generation has a wealth of experience in life. They survived the beginning of spring and don't worry about life at home when the summer harvest arrives.

If you don't tell me, I don't want to mention my grandma. I dream about my grandma every day now. My family depends on her. My father is honest, and my mother only knows how to work hard. The food and food at home are all arranged by my grandma. If she is still alive, I don't have to worry about the family all day.

After the man finished speaking, he touched his face, drank the soup, looked into the distance, and said in a melancholy tone: There are the most poplar trees in our village. Every spring, the first thing to grow is the poplar. When you get up early in the morning, The Yang Bagou fell to the ground. Grandma would let me sweep up the Yang Bagou on the ground quickly.

Then soak it in a large basin, soak it for a day and a night, pull off the hard shell, wash the remaining tidbits, chop them with a knife, stick them into balls with elm skin, steam them and eat them. Although there is a bitter taste, it is barely It can be swallowed to fill the stomach.

My grandma is also very capable. When I went back this time, I found out that last year her old man was still digging the roots. If it weren't for this sack of grass roots, the clear water porridge in the village would be enough.

Fearing that people would find out, the old man secretly cut the grass roots into pieces and dried them in the sun. When I went back during the Chinese New Year, she rolled it into noodles and steamed it for me to eat hard. This time before I left, she held my hand and told me to go to school without sending anything back.

The girl next door turned her head and asked them curiously, Student, where are you from? In my hometown, let alone the root, even the bark has been stripped off by the team.

We are from the south. Our hometown is backed by mountains. We grow crops all year round. There is not enough food and some fruits and vegetables. In addition, the surrounding team prohibits town residents from digging indiscriminately on the mountain. After the stung is over, all kinds of wild vegetables will come out. Than you Hello, hometown! After speaking, the other party smiled complacently, then lowered his expression and lowered his head.

After a class of students finished eating, everyone went back to the classroom and waited for counselor Xiao Wu to hold a meeting.

During the period, a female classmate in the class handed Zhou Jiao a note, and Zhou Jiao was surprised that the other party asked her to give her ten minutes. After thinking for a moment, Zhou Jiao nodded to her.

After class, Zhou Jiao followed her out of the classroom and came to the wilderness. Seeing her hesitating to speak, she smiled encouragingly at her—it was nothing important, no one would look for her.

Zhou Jiao, I want to ask you about something, please keep it secret for me.

What is Zhou Jiao most afraid of? It's a secret or something. But everyone said it out, she could only nod and smile and said, Don't tell me if you're involved in a serious incident. I'm afraid I won't be able to hide my words.

I believe in you, in the character of you and Zhang Guoqing.

Zhou Jiao looked at her helplessly, believing that she had to bring Zhang Guoqing with her, what was so important. Can she leave now?

The other party laughed when he saw this. After a while, she looked around and said in a low voice, I want to know how the Northeast is doing? I heard that many escaped famines in the past and lived well.

It really involves human life—Zhou Jiao asked seriously: Has the person you care about gone to the Northeast now? You need to know the three provinces in the Northeast, and the situation is different in each place.

I'll tell you the truth, it's my parents who want to take the family to the Northeast. My family's situation is worse than what those people in the cafeteria said, so I can't go.

Zhou Jiao didn't ask her if her family's departure would affect her future. The friendship between them is not that deep, and she is even less interested in other people's privacy.

She recalled what she saw and heard when she returned to her hometown years ago, and said softly: We have inspections at the railway station in the provincial capital, and there are people guarding the intersection when we arrive in the county. There are people who drag their families to the north along the way. They usually go to the grasslands and the northernmost area. .I heard that the management over there is much looser. If you have immediate family members there, you can still apply for refuge.”

Have you seen any provincials in your local area? How are they doing?

Zhou Jiao shook her head, I only stayed in my hometown for a few days, the weather was too cold, and I didn't see anyone walking on the street. I didn't see any outsiders in the county.

The other party thanked Zhou Jiao with a heavy heart, and followed her all the way back to the classroom.

Zhou Jiao didn't say any more. Today, when the other party came to him, he might not have the intention of asking him to help. She didn't think about the purpose of the other party looking for her. Anyway, no one can let her make a move.

People's hearts are unpredictable, who knows what background the other party has. What can you trust? Zhou Jiao couldn't even believe herself.
