Luo Zheng was sent alone to Lijiayao Farm, 40 miles away. During these four years, his two children also suffered with him.
They are a pair of twin children, they are fourteen years old this year.
The two children did not follow their father to the countryside at the beginning, because they had their second uncle Luo Sheng to support them no matter what.
However, life must be very difficult for such a large family, with elderly parents and many children.
Sun Xuefeng told these things, and he himself hadn't had lunch yet, so the two of them went straight into the state-owned restaurant to eat something.
Lian Xiaomin said: "I just bought two kilograms of dumplings. Let's order two more dishes."
After they went in, they ordered scrambled eggs and a plate of stir-fried shredded potatoes, sat down, and took the lunch boxes out of the backpack, each of them got a box of dumplings.
"Xiaomin, I was afraid that you would be worried, so I wanted to go back outside the city to find you first... Luo Sheng is like my uncle, and Luo Zheng is my father's classmate. I can't ignore his family's affairs, but I haven't figured out how to do it. I want to go and discuss it with you first."
Lian Xiaomin ate the dumplings first and listened to him continue talking while eating.
"Look at Uncle Luo's family situation. They have a bad background and can't find a job. Their life is getting worse and worse."
"…I left some money for them, but they can't help but go to the black market to buy high-priced food all the time. Life won't improve."
"And Uncle Luo Zheng, I heard he was tortured to death on the farm..."
Lian Xiaomin nodded and asked him softly, "How about we follow our usual plan...save Uncle Luo? Pack up the entire Luo family and take them to Hong Kong."
"...When you get there, you can find a job. Uncle Luo Zheng is like your father. He graduated from Beijing University and is well-educated. Uncle Luo Zheng can work in a cloth shop."
She might as well go all out. Since they were all leaving anyway, she might as well form a group and take them away. What's wrong with that?
If I hadn't been with Lian Xiaomin often, others would definitely not understand what the words "set meal" and "takeaway" were.
Sun Xuefeng's eyes became warm. Xiaomin was so loyal to him. She would fully support anyone he wanted to help without hesitation.
This is no small matter. There are so many people to lead, and it involves great risks.
In fact, he still doesn't know the real strength of the little boss. There is no risk actually. It's just a little troublesome. Just take care of more people. If he thinks about it, there will always be a way to solve it.
"Xiaomin, thank you..."
"Hey! Let's not talk about this. How many people are there in their family? Let's make a plan."
Sun Xuefeng said while eating dumplings: "Uncle Luo Sheng also has two children. In addition to Zhengchun, there is also a sixteen-year-old son, Zhengnan. He went out to find a job today and was not at home. I didn't see him either."
"…If we rescue the uncle, plus the two elderly people at home, there will be a total of nine people. The elderly are 63 years old this year, but fortunately they are all in good health."
Well, the Luo family has two old people, three adults, and four children.
Lian Xiaomin thought, this is really a lot.
But she will help with Sun Xuefeng's matter.
"Okay, after dinner, we'll go to his house and talk to them about whether they're willing to escape to Hong Kong. If they are, we'll take action at the end of March and take them all away."
After finishing their lunch, the two returned to the nearby alley and entered the Luo family's courtyard.
It was the thirteen-year-old boy Luo Zhengchun who came out to open the door. He looked and saw that Brother Feng was back again?
There was also a sister wearing a mask following behind, whom I didn’t recognize.
"Brother Feng, my eldest brother just came back, so it's a good opportunity for me to see you."
Sun Xuefeng touched his head and led Lian Xiaomin into the house.
Sixteen-year-old Luo Zhengnan was squatting by the stove, eating a steamed bread with cold water. When he looked up, it was Brother Feng! Oh, how happy he was.
"Brother Feng, my dad said you were here before, and I regretted not being able to catch up."
Then he let the person into the house.
Sun Xuefeng took a look and saw that the sixteen-year-old boy was used to doing hard labor and his hands were rough.
But Zhengnan has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, so he should be quite strong and looks pretty solid.
"Yeah, I didn't say I was leaving right away. There's a friend with me, so I have to say hello before coming back."
After entering the east room, Luo Sheng and his wife Xie Huifang saw that Xuefeng had returned with someone.
It should be the friend he mentioned before. He was accompanying him on this long trip.
"Xuefeng, please sit down~"
Lian Xiaomin looked around and saw that the conditions of this family were indeed not very good and it was obvious that they were living in difficult circumstances.
Without further ado, Sun Xuefeng suggested that he wanted to talk to Uncle Luo alone, so the others went to another room first.
He closed the door and explained the whole thing in detail. Luo Sheng was stunned for a moment and then suddenly realized.
"Xuefeng, it turns out that your family has arrived in Hong Kong! Then your parents will finally stop suffering."
Sun Xuefeng nodded. He had not told the other party the true situation of his family before, so the other party thought that his parents were still sent down to the Red Star Farm.
"Yes, Uncle Luo, I didn't tell the truth before. Now you know that my friend and I have a way to bring your family to Hong Kong. Do you want to take this route as well?"
"… Even if it's for the sake of the children and my uncle… these brothers and sisters can't even get enough food to eat now. If they go to Hong Kong, they can always make a good living. The children won't have a bad future, and my uncle won't have to continue suffering on the farm."
Among those who were sent down to the countryside for reform, there were a few good ones, but many died because their bodies could not bear it.
Luo Sheng had tears in his eyes. He grabbed Sun Xuefeng's arm and lowered his voice to the lowest level.
"I'll listen to you. Let's do this! Otherwise, the family will have no future. Zhengnan works hard from dawn to dusk, but he can't earn much money. How can there be a good future for him?"
"...My two nieces will have a hard time getting married because of the accusations made by their father...We have decided that it is worth it for the family to take some risks."
The two people talked in low voices, and Luo Sheng didn't need to go to the backyard to discuss with his parents. He was the head of the family and he made the final decision.
This was mainly out of trust in Sun Xuefeng, who was his close disciple and the relationship between them was reliable. Besides, the eldest brother of the Sun family and his entire family had already gone there, so what was he afraid of?
Take a risk and you will create a new destiny.
The two of them agreed to set off at the end of March.
At that time, Sun Xuefeng will come to pick them up, go to the farm, and rescue Luo Zheng again.
Lian Xiaomin didn't say much, just waited quietly by the side. Before leaving, she took out 100 kilograms of national food coupons and asked Sun Xuefeng to leave them for Luo Sheng.
With the money given, I can buy food. Otherwise, I would have money but nowhere to spend it. Anyway, I should just celebrate the New Year well so that my family can have enough to eat and stop doing hard labor.
This was also the last year that the Luo family spent here. Luo Sheng was very emotional and kept thanking Sun Xuefeng and Miss Lian.
