There is Room for Rebirth in the 1950’s

In the autumn of 1960, the new semester began with some new changes.

Zhou Jiao still remembers the day when she first went to school, there were solid white flour steamed buns in the cafeteria, and she choked on the first bite so much that she swallowed a big mouthful of vegetable soup.

At this time, she hit the muddy water with green leaves floating and grabbed two black dumplings. She winked at Zhang Guoqing and went out with the food first.

This autumn has been extremely sluggish, with continuous waterlogging and drought appearing in various places, and crops are reducing production and income. Therefore, Zhou Jiao had no objection to the food served, but it didn't mean she had to swallow it.

In the dormitory, Zhang Guoqing left two black balls behind, and whispered to Zhou Jiao who was surprised: I'll try it, so that people won't be confused when they ask.

Zhou Jiao felt that what he said made sense, but she didn't need to be so stupid as to gnaw at two. She broke a black ball in half, and put the rest away into the space.

These grains may still be useful and should not be wasted at all.

We share the blessings and share the hardships.

She took a bite first, and she didn't know what was mixed in, it was bitter and astringent. Hurry up and take a sip of the egg soup. Finally swallowed.

It's even weirder than mother's corn dregs buns.

Zhang Guoqing took the hand, put it on his mouth, took a big bite, and said with a smile, They are all good things. There will never be any high blood fat and high cholesterol.

Zhou Jiao took the soup and fed him distressedly.

After taking two gulps, Zhang Guoqing stuck out his tongue, and said softly: It must be this thing to do farm work in a few days. I have to go home and find a way to prepare more similar-colored vegetable dumplings and steamed buns in the next two days. It's best Even the cakes are ugly. It will not be easy for others to notice when people take out and eat them.”

Zhou Jiao nodded knowingly.

Bring this half to my son to taste, so that he can know what everyone is eating outside.

Zhou Jiao smiled after hearing this. Seeing that he can say it, he will be reluctant to do it.

After eating, Zhou Jiao told him to brush his teeth quickly. Ever since Yi Jiefang said that his second brother could smell meat after he burped, Zhou Jiao has been careful.

Thinking of the counselor in the afternoon to inform the class to hold a meeting in the evening, and to notify if there is something to do. Zhou Jiao frowned subconsciously, she didn't know what was going on just after school started.

What's the matter? Do you want to ask for leave tonight? Zhang Guoqing was surprised that she was uncomfortable, and touched her forehead, trying to smooth out the wrinkle.

Thinking of the meeting at night, it's probably bad news again.

Soldiers come to block, water comes to cover up. Whatever he does, he is either doing farm work or teaching classes.

It's a pity that Zhang Guoqing guessed wrong this time.

Standing in front of the blackboard, Counselor Xiao Wu first spoke impassionedly about the current great situation, and then spoke earnestly about the difficulties we are facing in the short term, hoping to tide over the difficulties with our compatriots.

Finally, he mentioned that in order to support the disaster-stricken areas, the whole school has reduced the regulation from one catty per day to eight taels per day, and six taels for girls. I hope that everyone will work together to create a better society.

The difficulties are temporary. The motherland has nurtured us. I hope that the students will extend their loving hands and actively participate in this activity.

Zhou Jiao secretly sneered at what difficulties were temporary. But there is a saying that people have to bow their heads under the eaves. She comforted herself, after eating free food for so long, it is not bad if she can save some. Especially in the previous life, I had to work part-time to earn tuition and living expenses to support myself.

Deceiving herself made Zhou Jiao feel more at ease. But other students don't think so. Not to mention the young people who can't fill their stomachs by a catty, for some students who often subsidize their families, it is undoubtedly a draw from the bottom of the pot, which makes the situation worse.

The dishes are no longer greasy, and the soup is clear every day, and various wild vegetables are added to the staple food, and there are countless rice grains in the porridge. This kind of difficulty is not ordinary. Nowadays, no one dares to go to the morning exercise, but the stomach is empty again after urinating, and they don't even have the strength to run.

But what can be done? Advice to the school? Even the old professor has to reduce the dose. Want to raise your opinion? No one had the guts to protest.

A few days later, the school asked all teachers and students to go to the farm to support agriculture.

With the experience of being able to eat a full stomach last time, everyone is very active this time, no matter how tired they are, it is enough to eat as much as they can.

On the same day, I walked happily to my destination. When I saw the sparsely grown crops, the malnourished Chinese cabbage, and the radish with moths, I felt chilly in my heart.

Harvest time is only a month away. Can these grow?

Zhou Jiao gnawed on the improved black dumpling, looking into the distance with sad eyes. She finally planted Chinese cabbage, and it is probably the same as here, the ground is yellow.

If it wasn't for the wrong timing, she would really like to sing a song - Xiaobaicai, Huangdilihuang.

Zhang Guoqing whispered to himself, I don't know how my hometown is.

How about it?

Come on. The third grandpa has suffered.

For a while, the couple fell into silence.

While Zhou Jiao was doing farm work, she looked at the chaff in the space, which seemed to be quite precious.

After two days of farm work, which was shorter than expected, everyone went back to school dejectedly.

It's not that everyone quit, but that there is nothing to do, and the disproportionate contribution and gain, the young people with big bellies frightened a group of honest people.

Since returning to school today, many things have changed. The atmosphere in the classroom became low and lifeless, the teacher was giving lectures weakly, and the students were lying on the desks and distracted.

Regarding these current situations, Zhang Guoqing has nothing to do. In this way, full attendance is in place, which can be regarded as a good example. I heard that some of the universities next door simply skipped classes and lay in the dormitory, and the Academic Affairs Office couldn't do anything about it.

He is not Bumpman, and he can save the earth.

The couple didn't dare to run home whenever they had free time, and kept the pace of going twice a week with Yi Jiefang and the others, so that they had room to breathe freely once they got home.

Not long after, a letter from Zhao Yuanyuan hit Zhou Jiao like a bolt from the blue—a farm near the provincial capital was robbed by a group of victims, causing many casualties.

Brother, send a telegram to your parents and let them live in the second brother's house. Don't live alone anymore. It's too dangerous.

Zhou Jiao remembered the doomsday farming articles she had read in the past, and all the pimples stood up all over her body.

Seeing that her face was pale, Zhang Guoqing didn't care to read the letter first, so he quickly hugged her in his arms, Don't be afraid, I will still be there when the sky falls.

After finishing speaking, he picked up the letter paper and read it quickly, secretly cursing Zhao Yuanyuan as a scourge, she is really bold, adding any words to it.

Look at the time. The date at the end of the letter and the stamp date are several days apart. The second brother must know about this. He didn't tell us because he was afraid that we would be worried. He must have been prepared.

Let's make a telegram first.

This letter is burned. I have to write a letter to remind Uncle Dashan. If Zhao Yuanyuan acts recklessly like this again, something will happen sooner or later. She dares to say anything in the letter. If the letter falls into the hands of outsiders, see how many lives she has. .”

Zhou Jiao frowned when she woke up at this moment, it seems that she still has to look at Zhao Yuanyuan in the future. There is no room for naivety in this world.

No, I'll write a letter to my godfather and ask him to find time to talk to Uncle Dashan in person. In this way, Uncle Dashan will take it seriously.

Zhang Guoqing knew that Zhou Jiao was more careful than himself in everything, so he nodded, Then I'll send a telegram first. But I guess my parents must not agree.

It's okay, I will ask my godfather to help me persuade my parents. What are things outside me worth?
