Along the way, Liu Aihua told them a lot about her life after she married into the Li family and before she came to join the army.

Most people in this era have many children, including Li Hu's parents.

He is the middle child in the family and is not as lucky as his older and younger brothers.

The older brother is born first, is the most anticipated by his parents, and spends the most time with them. The younger brother is younger and receives more attention, but is not as caring as his sisters, so he is often the most neglected one in the family.

As his wife, Liu Aihua's family did not have enough power and financial resources to support her, and her status in the Li family was not high.

They are the couple who do most of the dirty and tiring work, and they often don't get to do the good things.

In 1966, the country recruited a large number of soldiers. Thinking that it would be difficult for them to make a living at home and that they had to support such a large family, the couple discussed and decided to give it a try.

Liu Aihua stayed at home to take care of the children, while Li Hu signed up to join the army.

If he succeeds in the army one day, he will bring them to the army and they can live together as a small family.

Fortunately, he did it and successfully brought his wife and children to his side.

"Your family's Li Hu is so successful in the army. Let's not talk about whether your parents-in-law agree or not. Would your eldest uncle and younger brother-in-law agree to your separation?"

Not to mention anything else in the army, the first thing is that as long as you have a position, the salary is actually much higher than that of ordinary workers.

There are so many people from her uncle's and brother-in-law's families, how could they let them go so easily?

"Li Hu said that if they didn't agree, he would retire and go home, doing nothing but relying on them for support."

"He's been around for so many years, he's no longer as thick-skinned as he was before. It's just a matter of cheating. He really doesn't necessarily lose now."

"As long as they agree to split up the family business and let us go, we will give our parents ten dollars a month as retirement money. As for whether they use it on themselves, that's their own business."

"The reason why my mother-in-law agreed to come and help me take care of the child so readily this time is because I promised to buy her a round-trip ticket and give her ten yuan for taking care of the child."

"......"

"Are you sure that Li Hu in your family is your biological child?"

"Not only do I have to pay so much for my old-age care every month, but I also have to charge money for coming here to help take care of the children?"

"If you calculate it this way, wouldn't your eldest uncle and your younger brother-in-law have to give your parents-in-law 20 or 30 yuan every month to make it cost-effective?"

"I've already let it go."

"Being able to give us money to get here smoothly is already much better than many families."

"Captain Hu's family has to give twenty dollars every month. You've seen his mother before, so you know what kind of person she is. Compared to them, I feel that our family is actually okay. At least my parents-in-law don't come to bother us often and ask for money."

"It's good that we are respectful to each other and don't interfere with each other now."

"Indeed, if you run into someone like Captain Hu's mother, it would be really a headache if he still doesn't stop even after you give him money."

As Li Yunhua's wife, Wu Hong handled a lot of trivial matters for the family compound. She had a certain understanding of what each family was like. A family like Liu Aihua's was considered relatively good. At least the couple loved each other, the children were obedient, and both had income.

"You are all kind-hearted and tolerant."

"I gave birth to six children, all boys. My sisters-in-law envied me, but they also disliked the fact that our children were too greedy, so they tried to divide our family of eight early on."

"My husband and I raised all six children. My parents-in-law didn't help much in taking care of them."

"When my third child fell ill, I had no money, so I wanted to ask my mother-in-law to borrow two dollars to take the child to see a doctor, but she refused to give it to me, fearing that I would not be able to pay her back. In the end, my eldest brother from my mother's family heard the news and sent me five dollars overnight."

"Anyway, I'm not afraid of being beaten or scolded, and I'm even less afraid of other people gossiping

"Come to me next time, if you want money, you won't have it, but you will have your life."

Listening to what Liu Aihua said just now, Wu Danniu also recalled the past.

They have gone through a lot of hard and poor times. It can only be said that every family has its own problems.

"If we talk about happiness, it should be Fu Yu."

"My father dotes on me, my parents-in-law love me, and my husband protects me like an eyeball. I'm so envious~"

Song Fuyu smiled but didn't make any comparison.

The days when she traveled through time were indeed pretty good, and it was the original owner who suffered, not her.

..........

When we arrived at the drop-off point in Qin City, Wang Jun, the driver from the garment factory, was already waiting on the roadside.

He is a newly hired driver at the garment factory. His personality is completely different from Li Dadong. Wang Jun is tall but very introverted and not a talkative person.

He drove very steadily. If you didn't talk to him, he would remain silent no matter how long they drove. Even if they were talking heatedly in the car, he would not interrupt. This character made Song Fuyu feel very magical.

But that’s okay, at least the conversation won’t be awkward.

This time, including Aunt Wu, there were four people in total, and Uncle Zhao had already booked two rooms for them in the guesthouse.

"Xiao Yu, shall we sleep in the same room tonight?"

"Aunt Wu, you may have to sleep alone at night. Xiaoyue and I will share a bed at night. Every time she comes over, the little girl will stick to me and want to sleep with me."

Wu Hong had seen Xiaoyue before. She was a quirky, eloquent girl with fair and tender skin, very pleasing to the eye.

"Then you two can squeeze in. I just want to enjoy some time sleeping alone. I haven't experienced this kind of life sleeping alone in a bed for a long time since your uncle Li stopped going on missions."

After putting away their luggage, they headed straight to the garment factory.

As soon as I walked to the door, before I stepped into the gate of the garment factory, I heard warm cheers.

Several employees held artificial flowers made of cloth and shouted with bright smiles: Welcome, welcome, warm welcome.

Song Fuyu was so scared that he shrank back.

This scene made her feel like she was back in elementary school.

She vaguely remembered that when she was in the first and second grades of elementary school, the leaders of the Education Bureau came to the school to provide guidance, and the teachers also took them to stand at the door and shout welcome slogans.

I didn’t think much of it at the time, but now that I’ve grown up, I feel extremely ashamed when I encounter such a scene.

"Director Cao, what are you doing?"

She looked at the side in confusion, Cao Xingwang, who was smiling with wrinkles on his face, Zhao Shu and Ye Hongbing were also there...

"Director Xiao Song, we have achieved such remarkable results in Guang City this time, all thanks to you."

"A few days ago, Zhao Da and Hong Bing came back, but you were not at the celebration banquet we held. So we rescheduled one for you today."

"Uh... hehe..."

Song Fuyu twitched his lips in embarrassment.

"I have received your kindness, but why don't you all go back to work?"
