I looked at the calendar hanging on the wall. It was March 30, 1971.
Shen Anning thought that if he guessed correctly, the purpose of his uncle Shen Yixing coming home today was to explain the family affairs. He was a soldier and now at the deputy division level. According to the development path of his previous life, he and his aunt would set off for the Northwest Military Region tonight. This was also what Grandpa Shen had discussed with him before and had already arranged.
The capital is a mess now, and changing places is undoubtedly the right choice. It was the same in the previous life, but my aunt had a weak constitution and the environment in the northwest was also very poor. Later, my cousin and his wife were sent down, and my little niece died of illness shortly after she was born. This was the reason why my aunt died early due to depression.
Taking out a pen and paper, Shen Anning began to calculate. His eldest cousin was ordered by his grandfather not to join the army, so he chose the path of scientific research. But now it is wrong to have knowledge and learning. Moreover, he had studied abroad before, and his research field was not the direction currently supported by the country. At this time, it was not uncommon for intellectuals to be demoted.
Shen's father was a professor at Peking University and the dean of the history department. Shen's mother was the eldest daughter of the Qin family in Shanghai, a typical descendant of capitalists. It was because of Shen's father's knowledge and appearance that Qin Shuni married him regardless of everything. When Qin's uncle first started to get into trouble a few years ago, he took his wife and children abroad and came to find her, but she insisted on staying.
Because of Grandpa Shen, he was protected. Father Shen was only removed from his post in this movement and was unemployed at home. He and Qin Shuni had to go to the street office to study every month and were not tortured.
In my previous life, on the fifth day of April, my parents were sent to a farm in Northeast China. This happened not long after my uncle left. The situation was too sudden. No one expected that those people were so anxious. My uncle was a little late in intervening, which resulted in them and my grandparents being very far apart even though they were all in Northeast China.
On April 20th, my cousin and his wife were sent down to the countryside. Under the arrangement of my uncle, they went to a well-managed farm in the northeast. However, it was freezing cold and food was in short supply. No matter how close they were, it was impossible for them to be taken care of all the time. My little niece caught a cold when she was born, and the medicine did not arrive in time, which led to the tragedy that followed.
If nothing unexpected happens, the second brother will be arranged to join the army in the next few days. This is something the elders in the family have planned for a long time. Every generation of the Shen family must have someone join the army. There is only the eldest brother in my uncle and aunt's family, so Grandpa Shen naturally won't allow him to go. Therefore, the person who will join the army in Shen An Ning's generation is the second brother Shen Anchen. He has been practicing martial arts since he was a child and grew up in the military area. He has a passion in his heart.
In fact, Grandpa Shen had arranged everything in his previous life. How could an old fox who had fought on the battlefield leave the capital without making any arrangements? Logically, the Shen family would never have ended up like this. According to what Grandpa said later, it was the Lin family who, in order to advance further, broke their promise and fabricated non-existent evidence, which led to their family's demotion.
Her aunt and uncle mediated and protected her and her two younger siblings. But living in a military compound, they inevitably faced rumors and gossip, which later led to her uncle being isolated and investigated. In reality, this was just a tactic used by the gang to force them to submit.
So in the previous life, Shen An Ning took the initiative to ask to go to the countryside, and her two younger siblings were sent to her parents, which put an end to their evil farce!
"The Lin family, the Zhou family, these villains!"
Time is too tight, and Shen An Ning is completely helpless with her current abilities. Once her uncle and aunt leave, the only ones who can take care of things at home are Shen's father and uncle. Although she knows what bad things those people are going to do, she doesn't know the details, so they have to take the initiative to leave in this life. After a few years, it won't be too late to deal with those people one by one.
It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge!
If my guess is correct, those villains must have made preparations and are just waiting for my uncle and aunt to leave, and then they will attack one by one and defeat their family one by one.
My parents and my cousins and their wives are all young and able-bodied people who can work, so they must be assigned to work on the farm. Even if my uncle tries every possible way to arrange it, it is impossible for them all to be assigned to the village where my grandparents live.
Now that things have been decided, and the capital is so chaotic, instead of living in fear here, it is better to go to the countryside and go to a farm. As long as the arrangements are good, isn't it like the sea is wide enough for fish to leap and the sky is high enough for birds to fly?
Recalling the things of his previous life, Shen Anning held a pen in his hand, and a piece of paper was densely written.
It can be said that the Northeast has great advantages. Grandpa Shen and Grandma Shen were sent to Gengjiatun, Heishan County, Liaoning Province. This place was also considered in advance by Grandpa, the old fox. When Grandpa Shen was still the head of the regiment, the guards around him were from this village. Later, he retired and returned to his hometown. With the help of Grandpa Shen, he became the second-in-command of the local armed department. The village chief and village party secretary are all elders of his family.
Besides, they were only arranged to work in the countryside, not to be criticized or forced to live in a cowshed.
I remember my grandfather said that the place adjacent to Gengjiatun was called Wangtu Village. The two villages did not belong to the same commune, but were separated by only a river. Moreover, the two villages had many in-laws and had a good relationship. In order to save trouble, they built several wooden bridges at different locations on the river.
If you don't want to attract attention, Wangtu Village is undoubtedly the best choice for being an educated youth. After all, those high-ranking villains won't send people to investigate specifically.
Five kilometers away from the two villages is a large farm, the Black Mountain Second Farm, where many people were sent to work and some who had made mistakes, including some who were labeled capitalists.
Being sent to the countryside to work and being criticized are two different things. People like my grandfather belong to the former and do not need to live in a cowshed. The main purpose is to get them away from the center of power and prevent them from getting a share of the pie. However, capitalists and some intellectuals will be criticized. From time to time, they have to go on stage to be scolded and study, and they also live in cowsheds or dilapidated houses.
Having made up his mind, Shen An Ning planned to explain everything to his parents after they came back in the evening, and he would also call his aunt and uncle. After all, if he didn't help arrange these things, it would just be Shen An Ning's fantasy.
