Yu Xiang'an unexpectedly died while saving someone. When she opened her eyes again, she had become a high school student in a small county town in the 1970s. Before she could even rejoice about...
Yuan Yang did intend to agree, but before agreeing, she said bluntly, "I want to see your sincerity. If you don't have any ability, my current life is hard-earned. If you don't kill the snake later, I will be the one to die."
Yu Xiangan nodded: "Do you want to start over in Shanghai or somewhere else? Or do you want to go abroad? I can find a way to arrange it."
A flash of surprise crossed Yuan Yang's eyes. Going abroad?
She had never thought about it, but now many people are thinking about going abroad.
Is she going abroad?
Thinking of the language and the two children, she shook her head in her heart: "I heard that many people go to the Special Administrative Region to make a living. You are also in the Special Administrative Region."
Yu Xiangan: "Yes, I used to work for the government, and later I started a business, and now I have a certain scale."
"Then I want to settle down in the Special Administrative Region."
Yu Xiangan: "Absolutely no problem. Words are not enough. I will prove it to you first."
They took Tao Yan and Yuan Yang to their eldest brother and sister-in-law's house. They lived in the staff quarters, which was originally allocated to them. Although they have been transferred now, they have worked here for so many years and the house has not been taken back. It has become theirs.
There was someone guarding the family quarters, and Yu Xiangan was chatting with the old man at the gate.
Yu Xiangan: "Uncle, do you remember me? I was here today."
The old man raised his eyelids and said, "Remember, you have all seen them, but these two haven't." He pointed at Yuan Yang and Tao Yan.
Yu Xiangan smiled: "Master, you have a good eye. Yes, these two are here for the first time. Is my sister-in-law back?"
The old man looked a little smug when she praised him: "She's back. I just saw her coming back with a basket of vegetables not long ago. She should be cooking now."
Yu Xiangan: "Uncle, aren't you going to eat?"
Grandpa: "I'll wait a moment, my wife will bring the food over. This is my duty, I can't leave my post suddenly."
Tao Yan and Yuan Yang listened to their conversation quietly. Yu Xiangan continued to ask, "When was the last time my uncle came back? This is his first time in Shanghai in so many years. He wanted to take time to come when he was working here, but he was always busy."
The old man waved his hand and said, "Work is the most important thing. The last time was a while ago. It was your nephew's birthday. He didn't even stay when he came back. We had a meal together and then he left again. He looks more and more like the forest district chief now. He is also studying at university. In a few years, when he graduates, he will definitely be assigned a good place."
Yu Xiangan: "He is too busy over there, managing a development zone."
Uncle: "Hey, I wonder how many people would like this kind of favor." He holds great power.
Yu Xiangan smiled and said, "But I am really busy. Fortunately, my parents-in-law help take care of the children."
Uncle: "Of course not. Your sister-in-law is also a good person. She is as good as any man!"
From their words Yuan Yang and Tao Yan can raise several points.
1: As the eldest uncle, she is in charge of a district and her position is not low.
2. My nephew is in college and my sister-in-law is also in the system. This is a very respectable family.
Besides, it is impossible that the gatekeeper was in collusion with them. If he had the ability to do so, there would be no need for him to lie to them.
After talking for a while, they continued to walk inside. People greeted them along the way, which showed how popular Lin Guangbai and Yun Jing were here.
If they are not popular, no one will pay attention to their relatives when they come to visit. Only if they are popular, they will be very enthusiastic and support their relatives when they come from afar.
Tao Yan and Yuan Yang may not know all of them, but they have met some of them, so their identities cannot be faked.
My heart finally settled down.
After entering, Yun Jing heard the noise and came out of the kitchen: "Did you find the person you said you were going to look for?"
Yu Xiangan: "Found it, these two are it."
As soon as people came in, the room was almost full. The house they were assigned was a small two-bedroom apartment, not very big.
Lin Yuejing came out of her room and called out, "Second Aunt."
Yun Jing instructed her: "Go make some tea. Come, everyone, sit down. Don't be polite. I'm busy in the kitchen. I'll be there soon."
Yu Xiangqing rolled up his sleeves: "Sister-in-law, let me help."
Coincidentally, Tao Yan recognized Yun Jing's face. She knew that there was someone behind her. The couple's path to promotion was extremely smooth. However, she had only seen her before and had never dealt with her. Now she knew that she was the sister-in-law of Yu Xiangan's husband, and they were a very close relationship.
With their backing, it should not be a luxury to handle the matter impartially, she winked at Yuan Yang.
Not long after, Yun Jing came out of the kitchen, sent Lin Yuejing into the room to study, and sat down.
After a few pleasantries and introductions to each other, we got down to business.
Yuan Yang: "I myself have been thinking about them being severely punished by the law day and night. I can produce evidence, and I do have some evidence in my hands, but we can't stay here if the matter is made public. I want to go to the special zone. I also have a son in Yuqian Village. I have four children in total. I don't care about the last two, but my eldest son is innocent. He is detained there. He is not very old, and they keep saying that he... hates me. I want to take him away, but he doesn't want to, but it's not safe for him to be there."
Be careful not to hurt the rat. If she wants to make a big fuss, her son will be in trouble.
Yu Xiang'an: "The law is fair and just. You have been wronged, and we have been wronged. You take up legal weapons to defend your rights, and we will support you. You are in trouble now. Coincidentally, I have an old building in the Special Administrative Region with two bedrooms and one living room. It is now idle. I bought it before to store things. There are many job opportunities in the Special Administrative Region now. Even if you don't have any skills, you can apply for logistics cleaning and miscellaneous personnel. You can earn at least more than 30 yuan a month. What's your son's name? My eldest brother and his family are nearby. They should be able to bring him over. When the time is right, I will introduce you to a job. Your daughter is not too old, and she can go to the nearby area to learn more, so that she can get a higher salary in the future."
…
Yu Xiangan was unwilling to let go of this opportunity.
The incident involving Yu Xianghe happened too long ago and there was no evidence, so it was difficult to send them to jail. However, it was different for Yuan Yang.
She is still alive.
There are many people who know her, and she has two children.
If more people were involved, it would become a major case that would alert the higher-ups and attract the special investigation team.
By then, no one from top to bottom will be able to escape.
Yuan Yang: "What you said is very good, but I dare not believe you until it comes true."
"I'll call your son and they'll find someone to help him. As for the house, I wonder if you're free?
I'll take you there to handle the transfer, and I can also finalize your daughter's school. She'll be studying in school, and we'll do the real work over there. There are a lot of people in the Special Administrative Region, and they're very diverse. As long as you don't say it, many people don't know the other person's background."
Yu Xiangan gave her reassurance.
He took her to the Special Administrative Region to transfer the property, found a training institution for her daughter to learn accounting, paid the training fees, and sent his son to the factory as an apprentice. As long as she worked hard, she would be provided with food and accommodation every month and could learn something. He also gave her a sum of money.
She was not afraid that Yuan Yang would run away.
Yuan Yang did not run away, and she knew a lot.
Before she escaped, she knew that there were 28 female educated youth who had suffered, nine of whom died, and the rest did not dare to speak out.
When Yu Xianghai and his men knocked out a young man who was unwilling to leave and brought him back, she wrote a full list, packed herself up, took the list and evidence she had prepared, and walked into the provincial discipline inspection commission...
The road ahead is no longer controllable by Yu Xiangan and his friends.
Lin Houpu made several phone calls to reassure them that the other party had indeed done these things and they should not think of getting away with it.
The case was still under investigation and the specific details would not be disclosed. Everyone went back to the village, burned incense in front of Yu Xianghe's grave, and told her about the incident.
After that, life returned to normal, but Yu Qingshan often went to Yuan Yang's house to help look after her daughter and son.
My daughter is still quiet, but she is busy learning things every day and seems to be more lively.
Yuan Yang's son grew up listening to the rumors about Yuan Yang and is very hostile to her.
Think she is a bad woman.
However, he was not averse to his younger sister. He was afraid that she would be bullied, so he would come to see her after a break.
Yu Qingshan did not tell him how much her mother had to do and how much she had endured for them. She just watched them silently.
Yu Xiangan felt that he must be thinking about Yu Xianghe while watching them.
This kind of pain can only be relieved by knowing the final fate of the enemy. Now, they need to wait.
Lin Yihong and Lin Yining knew that their grandfather was in a bad mood recently, so they came to accompany him as soon as they had a holiday.
Sometimes they would bring their classmates along.
For example, the fat guys Chen Yi and Wang Lipan who get along well with Lin Yining, and Zhuo Mingwei who gets along well with Lin Yihong.
It’s really hard to think too much when there are little kids making noise at home.
Every now and then they would say, "Grandpa, I want to eat roasted sweet potatoes."
"Grandpa, my teacher said that I have improved in playing the violin. Can you help me listen and see if I have really improved?"
"Do you see this portrait I drew? It's our family."
Except when they were sleeping, the excitement never stopped.
Zhuo Mingwei's family situation is similar. His family also runs a business. Although he is very low-key, when his father drove a car to pick him up from school, he was seen by the twins. Although Zhuo Mingwei walked for a while before getting in the car, it was just a coincidence.
As for why they had to walk a distance, they understood that it was because they didn't want to attract too much attention.
Because Lin Yihong and Zhuo Mingwei sat at the desks in front and behind each other and had similar family backgrounds, they interacted with each other more often and ended up playing together. When Lin Yihong invited him to come over to play, Zhuo Mingwei agreed.
Wang Lipan never said what his family did, but everyone could basically guess it, because he had a strong military family vibe.
Speaking of which, among the three classmates who came to visit, Chen Yi's family was the worst off. However, Chen Yi's family has recovered now. His mother had the surgery, which was successful. She is no longer sick and can save the money she earns. It's hard to say how good it is. Life is not bad.
With these children who make people want to smile just by looking at them, Yu Qingshan feels much better.
Seeing how hard they work, I don’t want my children to worry about me.
Moreover, they are in the sixth grade now, and will go to middle school next year. Yu Qingshan couldn't understand it. The school system has been changed to 6-3-3. It used to be 5-2-2. It only took nine years to go to school to graduate from high school, but now it takes twelve years. Three more years means three years less of money. However, if you say that you can learn more knowledge, you can indeed learn more now.
They want to go to a good middle school, so their grades cannot be bad.
Worrying about him all the time means I spend less time focusing on my studies.
The housing prices in Hong Kong have risen, by more than ten points in a short period of time. Because of this good news, Yu Yegui invited them to visit Hong Kong.
He had bought two properties because of Yu Xiangan's reminder. Now the increase in value is very gratifying and it seems that it will continue to increase.
This is a good thing. Yu Xiangan did not go because he had something to do, so Yu Qingshan took Lin Yihong and Lin Yining with him. They are not young anymore and have good nutrition, so they will grow fast, so there is no need to worry too much.
There is no major safety hazard if you go back and forth on the same day.
When they came back, the twins were chattering excitedly. They went to concerts, plays and circuses.
These are things they have never experienced before.
Yu Qingshan also sighed: "No wonder so many people risked their lives to go there. Hong Kong is indeed developing better than ours now."
Look at the tall buildings over there, the small cars over there, and the blonde hair and blue eyes that are not uncommon over there; this is an international city.
Yu Xiangan said confidently: "We will catch up and counterattack."
Yu Qingshan was not so optimistic: "Let's hope so. It would be nice if that day really comes."
Yu Xiangan and Lin Chuanbai looked at each other: There will be a day, and that day will not be too far away.
During this period, Yu Xiangan and his team have added a new product, which is instant noodles. Later, there will be many choices of instant noodles, but at this time, there are not many.
Yu Xiangan launched three flavors: braised beef flavor, green onion pork ribs flavor, and spicy chicken flavor.
Business is booming.
How popular is it?
It was so popular that Yu Xiangan had to quickly pull Yu Mansheng over to help speed up the construction of the factory, as the existing factory was not enough.
The decision to do this business was actually unplanned because it was difficult to get equipment at that time and sometimes you couldn't get what you wanted. It happened that a client had equipment for making instant noodles and Yu Xiangan didn't want to miss it, so she took the chance.
Then, business was unexpectedly good.
Apart from the children who were attracted by the fragrance, there were some people who bought it in whole boxes, such as drivers.
They often don't meet anyone on the road. They usually just carry some dry food with them and don't eat well. They may be able to have a hot meal only when they meet someone. But with this instant noodles, it's different.
Bring your own matches, a pot, and water, and boil the hot water in a short time, and the instant noodles will be cooked. Or you can bring a kettle with a good heat preservation function to soak the noodles. It is fragrant and has a strong taste. It may not taste very good when you put it in your mouth, but just smelling it, not many people can resist it.
Including the twins, they have eaten quite a lot of delicious food, but when it comes to instant noodles, they have little resistance and they spend all the pocket money they have saved on buying instant noodles.
Their classmates are also obsessed.
I am also very keen on collecting the cards inside.
This card is of the twelve zodiac signs, and each zodiac sign has ten colors. If anyone can collect a complete set, they can get a bicycle for free.
Because of the carrot hanging in front, everyone who bought the instant noodles were reluctant to throw away the cards inside and kept them well.
The twins have now collected more than 40 different photos. Wang Lipan has more than 30 photos, and Zhuo Ming has the most, with more than 80.
If an adult in a family bought a box of them and brought them home, they would all be eaten up soon. No matter where they were hidden, the children in the family would rummage through the boxes and cabinets to find them, and they would not be afraid even if they were scolded afterwards.
Chen Xiaoyang also knew that this instant noodles was selling like hot cakes. She herself had never eaten it, let alone any other brand.
Fortunately, the team she was in was recognized as an activist last month, and each person received a box.
The title of activist is awarded to the team that wins the comparison with other teams. The comparison is based on several aspects, the most important of which is output, followed by defective rate, hygiene level, loss, etc. Based on the proportion, a total score is finally obtained. The entire team with a high total score will be rated as an activist.
Activists will not receive salary increases or bonuses, but they will receive prizes.
The prizes are different each time.
The last prize was a pair of cups, the prize before that was a new bed sheet, and this time the prize was a small box of instant noodles.
This instant noodle is relatively expensive compared to other foods. Chen Xiaoyang is used to being frugal and has never bought it before. She is reluctant to buy it.
This time it was given to her as a prize, so she opened it curiously, wanting to try what the instant noodles that others praised so highly tasted like.
Once you eat it, you can’t stop.
Originally, she just wanted to open one package to try and take the rest home, but when she came to her senses, she had already eaten half of the instant noodles. She felt a little guilty and then conflicted, but there was nothing she could do since she had already eaten it, so she could only take half back.
She is very frugal, and her family members are only slightly more frugal than she is.
Although the family no longer has to worry about having enough food thanks to farming, there are many children in the family and we are thinking about building a house, so life is not very comfortable.
She also advised them to find a job, but they all backed off, saying that they didn't know anything and that farming was less practical. Moreover, there was not enough manpower on the fields and the harvest would be poor. Over time, they kept saying the same thing, and Chen Xiaoyang had no choice.
In this case, instant noodles are a luxury for the family.
Most of the time, I buy candy for my children to satisfy their cravings. Candy is relatively cheap, and the cheapest kind costs only one cent each.
But instant noodles cost only a few cents a pack.
The portion is too small. For an adult, one packet is just a piece of cake.
Not enough for kids either.
She took back half of the instant noodles, and her mother immediately put them away, but it was too late. One of Chen Xiaoyang's nephews had already seen what it was and shouted loudly, "It's instant noodles! Grandma, I want to eat instant noodles!"
When he heard this, all his nephews came over, hugging his arms, waist, and thighs. Chen Xiaoyang's mother was instantly stuck and cursed loudly: "You starving ghosts, get out of the way! Do you hear me? If you don't get out of the way, I will lock you all up and not let you eat a single packet!"
As soon as these words came out, they cheered, "We'll be obedient and eat today, grandma, you're the best!"
Chen Xiaoyang's mother murmured helplessly: "Eat, eat, all you do is eat. You want to tear the food apart before it's even warmed up. You guys can't do anything but eat. I must have owed you in my previous life."
Her mother went back and put the rest back into the cupboard, took out a pack, then thought about the many children at home and took out another pack.
Seeing her coming out with two packs of instant noodles, Chen Xiaoyang reminded: "Mom, you need to put some green vegetables and eggs in it, and sprinkle some chopped green onions."
"I need to put eggs in it." After mumbling a few words, he took two eggs and beat them into egg drops. Cooking instant noodles is very quick and does not require any technical skills. When the water is hot, put the vegetables, noodles and other ingredients in together. After a while, it will be ready. Chen Xiaoyang opened the lid in time, scooped out one with chopsticks and tasted it: "Okay, it's done."
The fragrance was so overbearing that the moment the lid was opened, even her mother couldn't help but say, "Let me taste it too."
She picked up a piece of food with chopsticks and tasted it, then nodded seriously, "Not bad, not bad, the taste is just right, not too salty or too bland."
"Gulp!" The sound of swallowing saliva.
Chen Xiaoyang picked up a piece of food from the bowl in front of each of his nephews with a chopstick, not much, just one chopstick, and then added a little bit of soup.
Only in this way can everyone taste the flavor. When the noodles were all picked, there was only soup left. Chen Xiaoyang's mother took a handful of noodles and sprinkled them down with a distressed look, "This soup is good. Use this soup to cook noodles, and the taste will not be bad."
Not long after, Chen Xiaoyang's brother and sister-in-law who had gone to work in the fields came back, and each of them had a small bowl of noodles in front of them, smelling delicious.
Not only children are tempted by instant noodles, but adults as well.
"What kind of noodles is this today? It smells so good."
Chen Xiaoyang smiled and said, "Of course it smells good. This is made from the soup of instant noodles. I gave the instant noodles to the children and used the remaining soup to make noodles."
"Where did this instant noodles come from?"
Chen Xiaoyang: "Because it's a reward for good performance."
"Your factory's benefits are so good, will they still be available next month?"
Chen Xiaoyang explained: "This is not given every day. This is because our team performed well this time, so we gave it to them."
"Then keep working hard next time."
Chen Xiaoyang didn't want to, "I want to, too, but others will work hard together, and the difference between us is not that big." This is something that was earned for free, and everyone was working very hard, and next time it might not be instant noodles, it wasn't like that before,
Her nephews knew that there was no hope of getting rich next time, so they became more eager for the leftover instant noodles locked in the cupboard.
Chen Xiaoyang thought of the few packets left in her dormitory and swallowed secretly. She could still satisfy her craving.
Satisfied, she shared the delicious instant noodles with her family and went back to work hard. While she was working, she saw the factory manager who came to ask about the production volume left in a hurry after hearing something. Then when she went to eat, she heard others say that the boss and her father left in a hurry. She wondered if there was some big business.
Chen Xiaoyang subconsciously thought it was not the case.
The expression on the boss's face at that time was excited, but also suppressed.
It's very complicated.
It feels like a private matter.
It's a private matter indeed.
After a period of secret investigation, the final result came out that they were going to see some people off for the last time.
The law of nature is clear and retribution will come.
Justice has been so long overdue, but now it has finally arrived.
