CompletedThere's big news in the No. 431 factory. Chief Engineer Shi, a divorced father of two, is getting remarried. His bride is a rural girl from Hongqi Brigade.
Rumor has it that the woman is illiterate and married Shi Xiangming just to move to the city. Those gossipmongers are waiting to see the couple become a laughingstock.
But things turn out contrary to their expectations. After Wang Nian and Shi Xiangming marry, everyone realizes she is not only literate but also more educated than most of the factory workers' families. The two children with contrasting personalities are raised well-fed and happy, and even Shi Xiangming looks visibly healthier. The family's life becomes increasingly prosperous, and they eventually return to the city amidst envious gazes.
This is a story where 1+1 is greater than 2... Raising children, cooking delicious food. This is the 1970s life of Shi Xiangming's family in the third-tier factory.
