During the Spring Festival of 1980, Su Nuan’s new book “College Entrance Examination” was published and immediately caused great discussion in all walks of life.
One hundred thousand copies of "College Entrance Examination" were sold out in a short time!
Some people say that she is the best writer of our time!
Some people say that she is the writer who is closest to life and the most down-to-earth!
Some people say that watching her works is like recalling their own past, as if she is a friend in their lives, and there is an unspeakable resonance.
Su Nuan rejected all reporters who wanted to interview her and received an invitation from the magazine "Hope", which invited Su Nuan to be the editor of "Hope".
Su Nuan had never worked as an editor, but she was very interested in it. After discussing with Song Chunfeng, she accepted the invitation from the editorial department of "Hope" and went to Shanghai to work.
In September of the same year, Song Chunfeng changed his job and served as deputy county magistrate of Kun County, Jiangsu Province.
Kun County is very close to Shanghai. In order to facilitate commuting, Su Nuan used her own royalties to buy a Fiat 126, which is the first civilian car in my country and the first choice for many "ten thousand yuan households".
Although Su Nuan and Song Chunfeng were in different places, Su Nuan would drive to Song Chunfeng every weekend to reunite. As the saying goes, a short separation is better than a new marriage. Su Nuan found out that she was pregnant in the third month after Song Chunfeng changed his job.
Su Nuan currently lives in a rented house, so considering the housing problem after the child is born, she discussed with Song Chunfeng about buying a house in Shanghai.
It is worth mentioning that in June 1980, our country proposed: "Allow private individuals to build houses, purchase houses, and own their own houses."
Su Nuan likes a house with its own door and yard, so they took advantage of the New Year holiday to see a three-story villa with a small garden.
The two hired a decoration team to redecorate the interior according to their preferences, which took nearly half a year.
Su Nuan was worried about methanol, so she decided to ventilate the room and leave it empty for a few months, and moved in only one month before giving birth.
Old Mrs. Ling and An Qionglan also came over, ready to help take care of Su Nuan during her confinement.
As soon as the two entered the yard, they were very satisfied with the place and praised it highly.
"Xiao Nuan, the house you chose looks very fashionable."
This is a new word that my aunt An Qionglan has learned. Some people in the commune in my hometown have also built small Western-style houses.
Su Nuan explained: "This was where the foreigners lived before, and then the government took it back and sold it to us."
"You must be tired after sitting on the train for several days. Come in."
Song Chunfeng moved all their luggage in, and then Su Nuan went into the house with them.
The house is designed in Chinese style, with a bathroom, kitchen, living room and two rooms on the first floor.
"This room near the bathroom is for grandma. Aunt, you live in the room opposite."
"It's such a beautiful house, I'm willing to sleep in the living room!" An Qionglan said cheerfully.
Su Nuan didn't dare to let her aunt sleep in the living room. "You came all the way here to take care of me during my confinement. How could I possibly treat you harshly?"
Old Mrs. Ling had no time to chat as she was busy walking around.
She had never seen such a beautiful house, let alone lived in one.
I originally thought she would spend her whole life in the countryside, but I didn't expect that at the age of almost 70, she could still live in a big house in a big city.
All this is thanks to my niece!
Song Chunfeng heated up the dishes he had prepared in advance and brought them out, "Grandma, Aunt, are you hungry?"
“It’s time for dinner.”
Old Mrs. Ling said "eh", reluctantly withdrew her gaze and looked at the dining table in the restaurant. On it was a pot of winter melon and pork ribs soup, a plate of braised chicken wings, some stir-fried seasonal vegetables, a plate of braised prawns and a plate of steamed fish.
The dining table is rectangular and has six armchairs.
Song Chunfeng pulled out chairs for them and asked everyone to sit down before he sat down.
"After you finish your meal, take a hot bath and rest for a while. I will take you around in the evening." Su Nuan made arrangements in an orderly manner.
"Okay, I'm really looking forward to it." My aunt said as she served the soup.
Su Nuan suddenly thought of something and asked her aunt, "Aunt, you come to take care of the child for me, what about my sister-in-law?"
She originally wanted to have her grandmother come over to take care of her, and then hire an aunt to take care of her, but her aunt said that since they were hiring an aunt, they might as well let her take care of her, and Su Nuan could pay the salary as she saw fit.
"Your sister-in-law supports me coming here."
"Jiu'er is very well behaved. She has been quiet since she was in her mother's womb. She can bring her up by herself."
Han Weimin's daughter Han Jiuer was born in January 1981. An Qionglan recalled the time when she went to take care of her eldest daughter-in-law during her confinement, and the cramped feeling of several people squeezed into a one-bedroom house. When she compared it with Su Nuan's big house, she felt a huge sense of gap.
Although her son's job is a regular one, the salary and accommodation conditions are really average.
She said sadly: "Among the children, Weimin has the worst life."
"Weixian will be assigned a job by the government when he graduates next year. No matter how bad he is, he will still be a worker."
Su Nuan asked tentatively: "Does Weimin plan to find another way out?"
"Last year, someone successfully obtained a business license for an individual business..."
Before Su Nuan finished speaking, her aunt said, "It's not good to be a self-employed person, right?"
It’s no wonder she thinks this way. In her and the people around her impression and cognition, speculation is a bad thing.
“The brave ones will make the most of their money first.”
“Many people look down on self-employed people now, but as early as 1978, I knew those small
