083: Sai Jinhua's Past
As soon as you have new clothes, take apart all your old cotton-padded jackets and piece them together to make a thin quilt.
In this way, I have clothes and quilts!
Kill two birds with one stone!
Yu Xiaoye nodded seriously and said loudly:
"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"
Jia Song finally showed a smile on his face, and a hint of appreciation flashed in his eyes:
"I trust you!"
For some reason, Jia Song believed that this little girl would give him a perfect explanation.
Because he saw in the little girl an indomitable strength and courage, the kind of momentum that goes against the current!
Moreover, in the entire company, no one except her dared or had the ability to complete this task. Yu Xiaoye was the best choice.
————
In order to provide new clothes for his family of three, Yu Xiaoye took on this difficult new task without hesitation.
Time is tight and the task is heavy.
She no longer had the heart to eat lobster dinner. After discussing with her parents, she started preparing and quickly thought about what program to prepare.
The family of three worked together and went directly to Jia Song's office, turned on the lights, and held a meeting to discuss new programs.
There are two programs, one is Yu Xiaoye's solo song and dance, and the other is a skit by Yu Xiaoye and Jia Song.
In fact, Yu Xiaoye is proficient in all kinds of skills, and she can handle this Labor Day performance by herself.
But it’s not a good idea to expose everything at once now, so I can only expose a part of it first.
When she was in middle school, she was the entertainment committee member of the class and often organized entertainment activities in the class, so rehearsing programs was not difficult for her. The difficult part was organizing programs among a group of farmers, workers and educated youth.
Now that Wu Yanping is not coming, if she doesn't come, I'm afraid the other educated youth will not dare to step forward rashly, for fear of offending Wu Yanping. This will create certain difficulties for them in selecting talents.
So Yu Xiaoye simply gave up on the educated youth group and chose programs from the old employees.
There must be some talented people among the old employees.
Take Sai Jinhua for example. Didn’t she know how to dance the yangge? Regardless of whether she danced well or not, her enthusiasm for performing alone was enough to make people excited.
If we select a few more women, form a yangko team or something, and perform a labor yangko, that would be very appropriate, right?
She told Jia Song about this idea, but Jia Song was a little worried.
Yu Xiaoye asked:
"Isn't this a good idea?"
"That's all right, but——"
"What is it?"
"That's right. Sai Jinhua's background is questionable. Letting her do a few random dances is fine, but if she really rehearses a show, I'm afraid she won't be able to perform on stage."
It turns out to be a question of background.
Yu Xiaoye didn't know Sai Jinhua's background and was confused. At this time, Xu Ying leaned close to her daughter's ear and whispered a few words, and Yu Xiaoye suddenly understood.
Xu Ying and Sai Jinhua were both farm workers in the fifth row, but not in the same class. Xu Ying followed the female workers in the fifth row to work for a few days and heard some gossip. For example, Xu Ying heard that Sai Jinhua was a prostitute and was later redeemed by a rich landlord and taken home as his concubine.
After liberation, the landlords were overthrown, Sai Jinhua became a landlord's wife, and also became the target of mass supervision. She was punished to clean the public toilets on the streets.
Sai Jinhua, who had been living a life of luxury, became a toilet sweeper. She could not stand the gap, so she took advantage of the night, rolled up her bedding and escaped, all the way to the northeast.
I thought I could hide my identity in the Northeast and live a peaceful life from then on.
But unexpectedly, a warrant was issued in her hometown to hunt down the escaped landlord's wife. When the warrant was followed to the Northeast, she was arrested, sentenced, and sent to labor reform.
The farm where Sai Jinhua was doing forced labor was the predecessor of the Eighth Company.
Sai Jinhua stayed on the farm for ten years. Later, this labor reform farm became the Eighth Company. After Sai Jinhua was released from prison, she was resettled locally and stayed in the Eighth Company as a formal farm worker.
During this period, something quite surprising happened.
Sai Jinhua got married.
The man's surname was Pu, and people called him Lao Pu.
In the Great Northern Wilderness, especially in the Corps farms, although there has always been a shortage of women, no man would dare to marry a woman like Sai Jinhua, who had a questionable background, had been in labor camps, was a former prostitute, and was already quite old.
But Lao Pu dares.
Lao Pu did not despise Sai Jinhua's past at all. After he married Sai Jinhua, he obeyed Sai Jinhua in everything and loved her very much. He also addressed Sai Jinhua in a strange way.
Sai Jinhua's real name is Jinhua. Sai Jinhua is just a nickname given to her by others. People usually call her by her nickname, regardless of gender, age or status, and she doesn't get angry.
But Lao Pu didn't call her Sai Jinhua, he called her Sister Jin.
Every day at home and outside, they always call each other "Jin Jie Jin Jie" in a warm and affectionate way. If you don't know them, you would really think they are real siblings.
Moreover, the men and women in the farm company were very open-minded and often had affairs, sometimes even openly. However, Sai Jinhua, who had been a prostitute, never had affairs with anyone.
If someone takes advantage of her, she will curse at them without mercy or even slap them in the face.
So the couple can be considered a breath of fresh air among the old employees of the company.
Others have always felt that there seems to be some unspeakable secret between the two of them and have always wanted to find out.
Later, Lao Pu became the company's cart boss, responsible for driving carts. Once, another cart driver invited him to have a drink. Lao Pu was happy after drinking, and after drinking, he told the man about his past with Sai Jinhua.
It turned out that Sai Jinhua and Lao Pu knew each other before coming to the company.
At that time, Lao Pu was not Lao Pu yet, but Xiao Pu. He was a child who served Sai Jinhua when she was in a brothel. Xiao Pu was a few years younger than Sai Jinhua and always called her Sister Jin.
Sai Jinhua at that time
Xiao Pu often served Sister Jin and fell in love with her uncontrollably.
Later, Sister Jin was redeemed by a wealthy landlord and taken home as his concubine. Xiao Pu was very sad and left the brothel.
It was not until the liberation that Sister Jin was punished to clean the toilet. Unable to bear the blow, she packed up and ran away. A year or two later, Xiao Pu heard the news that Sister Jin was arrested in the Northeast and sent to labor reform.
The infatuated Xiao Pu followed Sister Jin's footsteps all the way to the Northeast, and came to the Eighth Company, which was a labor camp at that time, and stayed there for many years.
Over the years, he didn't tell anyone about his relationship with Sister Jin.
When Sister Jin was doing labor reform, she never told anyone about her relationship with Xiao Pu.
The two of them watched over each other silently, known only to heaven and earth and to us.
