After get off work, Lu Jiang said, "Let's go to the state-owned restaurant and have something delicious."
"Brother Lu Jiang, let's go buy some groceries and cook it ourselves. Today is our first day at work, and we need to celebrate."
"Ah Hai, Tiantian and I are happy today. Go buy some wine, and let's drink together and have a good time."
Lu Jiang and Lu Hai handed the keys to Zhang Tiantian and Gu Ranran.
"Tiantian, you and Gu Zhiqing go back first. Lu Hai and I will go to the black market to buy things."
"Brother Lu Jiang, please buy more food. I'm almost out of food, especially chocolate."
"Ah Hai, buy some soda. I want to drink soda while eating."
After Lu Jiang and Lu Hai went to the black market, Zhang Tiantian and Gu Ranran walked back home.
"Ran Ran, I've finally gotten over my anger today. It's not easy for us women, and yet you still discriminate against us women."
"Yes, Tiantian. I was really pissed off today. This society is so patriarchal. Girls aren't liked by their families when they're young, and they're treated unfairly by society when they grow up. We women are no worse than men. We give so much, but we still don't get respect from men. Some men really deserve to die, especially those who commit domestic violence. They shouldn't have been born into this world."
In this era, many men treat girls as money-losing goods. Not only men curse like this, but women curse more often, usually the girl's grandmother or mother.
Life was so hard for women in this era. When I was little, I had to do housework and take care of my brothers and sisters. There was endless work to do. I didn't have enough to eat and couldn't go to school.
When you grow up, get married, and devote your life to your family, you might even have your older brothers and sisters on your side sucking your blood. In the end, you end up with nothing and become a nobody.”
"Ran Ran, don't we have golden fingers? Let's help them. Let's help the little girls first and change their lives. We women shouldn't be like this. We should have our own lives."
"Tiantian, sure. Aren't there many girls these days who can't afford to go to school? We can sponsor them to go to school. It's 1970 now, and the college entrance examination was resumed in 1976. Once they study and get into university, they can have their own lives."
"Ran Ran, we have to take this matter slowly. Especially this matter, what we are doing cannot be known to others. As long as the two of us know about it, we can do it quietly.
When we can start a business in the future, we will open a shop and a company, and we will only hire women. We will also set up a fund specifically to help women. As long as they are truly in trouble, we will provide money to help them overcome difficulties.
"Tiantian, sure. We only help women. We were both orphans before we came here. In the orphanage, most of the orphans are girls. If there are boys, only the abnormal ones will be kept. People usually consider boys first when adopting."
"Ran Ran, when the college entrance examination is resumed, we should take it. I want to take my parents to Beijing for development. Your family is also in Beijing. Lu Jiang and Lu Hai are also high school students, so they should have no problem taking the college entrance examination."
"Sure, Tiantian. Let's live a good life with our family and Golden Finger, and try our best to help those who need our help and those we help. Lu Jiang and Lu Hai are back, let's go out and cook, together, quickly. Let's have a good drink tonight to celebrate the great things we did today."
Lu Jiang and Lu Hai saw Zhang Tiantian and Gu Ranran come into the kitchen and pushed them out.
"Tiantian, you and Gu Zhiqing can go out. Lu Hai and I can do it."
"Ranran, my brother and I bought some delicious food for you and put it on the table. Go and eat it."
"Brother Lu Jiang, what are you going to cook? Let's cook together, it will be faster this way. From now on, we will do the housework together, at most you and Lu Hai will do a little more."
"Okay, as long as Tiantian is happy. Lu Hai and I will make spicy fish, sweet and sour pork ribs, tomato and egg soup, and hot and sour potato shreds."
"Brother Lu Jiang, you and Lu Hai will make spicy fish and sweet and sour pork ribs. Ran Ran and I will make tomato and egg soup and hot and sour potato shreds. Don't we have two stoves? This is just right. Although my cooking skills are average, Ran Ran's cooking is delicious."
"Okay, Tiantian, let's do it separately. I'll help Lu Hai. Lu Hai's cooking is also very delicious."
Zhang Tiantian went to cut tomatoes while Gu Ranran peeled potatoes. Zhang Tiantian made tomato and egg soup first while Gu Ranran stir-fried spicy and sour potato shreds.
By the time Gu Ranran had finished frying the spicy and sour potato shreds, Lu Jiang and Lu Hai's spicy fish and sweet and sour pork ribs were also ready.
After the dishes were served, Zhang Tiantian filled the wine glasses of all four people.
"Ran Ran and I are happy today, so you two can have a drink with us."
"Tiantian, you should drink less. You still have to go to work tomorrow."
"Brother Lu Jiang, we're at home, what are you worried about? Don't we still have you two? Even if we get drunk, you two can still take care of us, right?"
"Ah Hai, don't worry about going to work tomorrow. You two drive first, and wait for Tiantian and I to rest. When we are sober, we will take over."
"Ranran, sister-in-law, you two should eat some food first, and then drink. Don't drink too much. Drinking too fast will make you drunk easily."
"Brother Lu Jiang, Lu Hai, you guys eat too, we'll talk while we eat. Ran Ran and I are lifelong sisters, and we'll always be together. Even after we get married, we won't separate. The four of us are a family, living together. Are you two willing?"
"Tiantian, I do. Lu Hai and I grew up together, and we always took care of each other. Our families weren't good to us, but compared to my family, Lu Hai is my real family. Fortunately, Lu Hai has been with me since I was a child, otherwise I would be very lonely."
