After going out for a while, I came back to find that the commune had changed a lot.

It's not that the houses here have changed shape, but rather that the people here have changed a lot.

Many people have been arrested, and many others are pulling strings to try and get vacant positions.

Gu Yunyang didn't think much of it, since the college entrance exam was just around the corner anyway.

When the time comes, he should leave this place.

Then, Gu Yunyang went to rest.

Gu Yunyang had been busy for quite some time on this trip and was indeed a bit tired.

I slept straight through until the afternoon.

Gu Yunyang took out a piece of pork belly, a pork knuckle, and a pig's trotter.

He made a braised pork belly, a braised pork knuckle, and a braised pig's trotter.

The fragrance couldn't help but spread outwards.

Gu Hongtao got off work a little late, so she planned to get food from the cafeteria and eat it on her way home.

“Let’s stay in my younger brother’s yard tonight. A few days ago, a team leader from above was trying to make things difficult for me. He gave me so many materials and insisted that I finish them all before I could leave work. My second sister did the same thing. Someone must be targeting my younger brother and is deliberately making things difficult for us.”

Gu Hongtao thought to herself, "Should I tell my little brother? These people are going too far. They only saw my little brother being kicked out of the commune, yet they dare to treat us like this."

Gu Hongtao was reluctant to cause trouble for Gu Yunyang.

Since those people dared to treat her like that, it's obvious that even her underlings couldn't do anything to them.

Gu Hongtao made up her mind to endure it if she could.

This job was something my younger brother had worked very hard to find for her.

She knew that it was already very good that the mushroom bag factory could provide jobs for two of her five sisters.

As for the five jobs, all five sisters have jobs.

That's something you shouldn't even think about.

That's impossible.

Her older sisters took care of her and gave her their jobs.

Even if she suffered a great injustice, she would never speak out, much less cause trouble.

What if I lose my job?

She was unable to take her wages home, making life even harder for her family.

Countless people in the Red Flag Brigade are envious of them.

Who can blame them for having such a wonderful younger brother?

Um?

This taste?

Gu Hongtao pouted: "Who is so rich that they bought so much meat? It smells so good."

Gu Hongtao suddenly remembered that when her younger brother treated them to dinner before, there were quite a lot of meat dishes.

Those were the best few days of her life.

The parents favored sons over daughters; no, they only valued that boy Gu Chang'an and didn't even care about their own son.

Needless to say, their daughters were even more so.

I really don't know what my parents are thinking.

Gu Hongtao was indignant that her only younger brother had been taken away and abused by someone else.

They had no idea what to do.

He still wants to exploit his own son and fawn over that Gu Chang'an.

"I really can't understand it."

Unable to figure it out, Gu Hongtao quickened her pace, intending to hurry back.

The scent disappeared once she closed the door.

But the closer Gu Hongtao got to home, the more she felt that the fragrance seemed to be coming from her younger brother's yard.

"A thief has broken in?"

Gu Hongtao's first thought wasn't that there was good food, but rather, "Where did this little thief come from, buying meat and cooking it at our house?"
