Return To 1977 Chapter 669: Gap
lnmao.org, the fastest update to return to the latest chapter of 1977!
At the end of June 1981, when men's clothing with red shirts and white pants suddenly became fashionable on the streets of Beijing, the Sixth Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee of the Communist Party of China was held in Beijing.
This meeting not only completely negated the ten years of the "movement", but also summarized and evaluated the merits and demerits of the main responsible persons. The educated youth movement that set off a climax in the "movement" also ended with the return of the vast majority of educated youth to the city.
But because of this, the employment pressure this year is still not small.
To this end, on July 7, the upper levels of the state issued "Several Policy Provisions on Non-Agricultural Individual Economy in Urban Areas." It also emphasized in the "Regulations" that "citizens engaged in self-employment are independent workers who support themselves. Any discrimination, indiscriminate interference or negative attitude toward the individual economy is not conducive to the development of the socialist economy and is wrong." ."
It is hoped that this will encourage unemployed young people to find their own way out and relieve some of the need for resettlement work.
Of course, under such a severe employment situation, the placement situation of fresh graduates is not very optimistic. There are almost no good jobs. They are either managed by service bureaus or go to small collective factories.
So Su Xiu, who graduated from high school, was miserable. She failed the college entrance examination and had no confidence to take the exam again. She was directly transferred by the school to sell vegetables in a non-staple food store in "Niujie".
Fortunately, Hong Yanru lived up to her family's expectations. She was admitted to the "Jingcheng Textile Engineering College", the predecessor of the "Jingcheng Fashion College", with second place and excellent results, and became the first undergraduate in the Hong family. College Students.
The dream that Hong Yanwu designed for her of "clouds and clothes and flowers and looks" is obviously about to come true.
So, on the day they received the admission notice, the Hong family not only set off 10,000 firecrackers, but also received congratulations from the neighbors. In order to express gratitude for Kuang Meiyun's kindness in tutoring, Hong Lucheng and his wife personally took their daughter to the Chang family's door to announce the good news.
In addition to bringing a lot of gifts during this trip, they also had to hold a thank you banquet at "Fengze Garden". In the words of the Hong family couple, the three teachers of the Chang family taught the three children of the Hong family. This kindness was so great that it was impossible not to do so.
As a result, the Chang family could not refuse, and they were happy for Hong Yanru, so the two families had a happy time together.
But then again, Su Xiu and Hong Yanru, a pair of good friends, good classmates, good neighbors, and good sisters who were all in sync with each other, have reached this age, and their life circumstances have suddenly changed so much. Everyone was caught off guard.
Such as Su Xiu is heartless, she wears a blue coat every day and waits while piling up vegetables to calm customers down. She smells the smell of rotten vegetables and shouts until her voice is hoarse, but she may not be able to complete the task. If you can't sell, your bonus will be deducted and your boss will criticize you. It's strange that you don't feel lonely.
In turn, she looked at Hong Yanru. She was wearing beautiful clothes and a shiny school badge. She came in and out of the house in a decent manner every day. The neighbors were all welcoming her with warm smiles. It became even more obvious that she was a treasure. Like a grass.
It's easy to say that these two days are good. Comparing like this every day, if she wants to say that she is not anxious or sad, not jealous and not sour, she will really become a fairy.
So because of this, Empress Su Xiu cried a lot.
Although I have been trying to convince myself, "It is natural for Xiaoru to go to college. This is called reaping melons and reaping beans if you sow beans. I just like to play around in a muddle-headed way. It is not studying at all." material."
But the huge gap in reality is really not an understatement. "We are still good friends, and we will always be good sisters." "Happy" can be healed.
In this case, as negative emotions accumulate day after day, the probability of emotional divergence between the two people becomes higher and higher.
Even the conflict broke out suddenly.
Just this month, on the day when the movie "Middle Age" starring Pan Hong was released, Hong Yanru took two movie tickets and went to Niujie Food Store to find Su Xiu, hoping to go to the movies with her after get off work.
Unexpectedly, he caught up with Su Xiuyan and Qunru, arguing with several customers alone.
Because Hong Yanru felt it didn't look good and was afraid that Su Xiu would suffer a loss, she quickly stepped forward to persuade her.
Unexpectedly, after she finally managed to persuade those customers to leave, Su Xiu turned around and turned around to express her resentment.
"Okay, are you done watching the fun? You should leave quickly."
Su Xiu's seemingly unreasonable indifference caught Hong Yanru completely by surprise.
"Xiu'er, I'm here to watch a movie with you. Look, "Middle Age". I heard it reflects the beliefs and pursuits of intellectuals. Don't you like Pan Hong..."
But this patient explanation was completely useless, Su Xiu still didn't know the good people's heart.
"Well, well, don't tell me. I'm a vegetable seller and I can't understand. I'm also telling you, don't think that you will be fine if you go to college. What kind of clothing design? Isn't it just a tailor? Well. What about our family? Why are you so proud? It’s ridiculous..."
Hong Yanru was completely stunned. She couldn't believe these words were spoken by her best friend.
"Xiu'er, you...what's wrong with you?"
Looking at Hong Yanru's devastated look, Su Xiu's eyes couldn't help but turn red. She couldn't bear it anymore and felt that what she just said was too much, but she had nowhere to vent her frustration. He gritted his teeth and said it all.
"Xiao Ru. I know it's very boring for me to think like this, but every day I see you carefree and living a life like the pride of heaven, while I wear a dirty coat and behave like an old lady. There was a quarrel in the street. I want to say that I am very happy for you. Do you believe it? I really don’t want to see you smiling every day anymore..."
Only then did Hong Yanru realize what the problem was.
"I...I never thought about..."
"Then think about it carefully. How would you feel if you were in my position? From now on...from now on, don't come here to see me again. Anyway, you will start school in a few days... ”
After this incident, the two girls didn't speak for two or three days. Their faces burned badly when they met, and they both avoided each other. But their relationship is so strong that they really don't do nothing for each other.
Hong Yanru went to beg Hong Yanwu that night and asked him if he could find a way for Su Xiu to find a better job.
As for Su Xiu, the more she thought about it, the more she regretted it. But she wanted to apologize but couldn't, and in the end she was so noisy that she couldn't sleep. An idea occurred to me in the middle of the night, so I got up and wrote a self-examination letter of apology. It was stuffed in the mailbox the next day.
So it was three days until Hong Yanru received the letter and finally figured out what Su Xiu was thinking. As soon as she read the letter, Hong Yanru felt relieved and went to find Su Xiu. The two girls laughed through tears and reconciled.
And it’s a coincidence. In the past few days, Hong Yanwu had also just made some secrets about Su Xiu.
When he came back that night, he was happy when he saw the two girls were reconciled and were chatting together at home.
He quickly called the two people over. He told them the good news that as long as Su Xiu persisted for three more days, he would no longer have to sell vegetables. He had contacted her about a new job.
Seeing that Hong Yanru was happier than herself, Su Xiu felt even more embarrassed.
I couldn't say a word "thank you", so I hugged Hong Yanru and cried again. It wasn't until I finished crying that I remembered what job I hadn't asked about yet. I shed tears, changed my smile, and asked Hong Yanwu eagerly.
Hong Yanwu saw that she alternated between a cat and a dog, changing faces like a book, so he still didn't make fun of her.
"I know what you want. Not tired from work, make a lot of money, have a decent job, good benefits, and the most important thing is to have a future, right?"
Su Xiu Teng blushed. Just when she was so angry that she wanted to bite someone, Hong Yanwu's answer made her lose all her anger.
I dare Hong Yanwu to find her a place at the Municipal Tourism Bureau, which not only meets the conditions just mentioned, but also sits in an office. This gave her a big surprise.
But before she could be so beautiful, Hong Yanwu's words of scolding came out of her mouth.
"You said you girl, you are not satisfied with your job, why didn't you come to me directly? Are you just sitting there and suffering for a few days in vain? Let me tell you, I am busy with other things these days. If Xiaoru hadn't told me, you would have just endured it."
"I...I...Brother Xiao Wu, I'm not afraid of causing trouble to you."
"Humph, that's nice to say. Are you afraid of troublesome me? You're a tender-skinned person, and you don't want to trouble your own boss. Now do you know where you went wrong?"
"I...I am petty and should not spread my anger on Xiaoru..."
"Yes, it seems that you are still a confused person. In fact, I can understand you. When people are mentally unbalanced, it is inevitable to have some emotions, and Xiaoru will not care about it. This is not what I am talking about, but that you ask for help yourself. This is nothing to be embarrassed about. No one can live on his own. But on the other hand, if you can't open up about our relationship, what will you do in the future?"
Hong Yanwu continued to talk earnestly.
"Xiu'er, you are an adult when you go to work, and no one treats you like a child anymore. There is no warmth from relatives in the workplace, and no one thinks about you for no reason. On the contrary, it is unfair, and you are a minority. Most people are disappointed. So you should stop treating yourself like a child and at least learn to fight for your own affairs. As long as your reasons are reasonable, there is nothing to be embarrassed about. ”
"Think about it. If it concerns your personal interests and you don't speak up yourself, who can take the initiative to speak for you? You won't be able to wait for others to show kindness by just waiting. Only you can speak up first. , others will consider your needs. The difference is that it may be possible if you ask, but it will definitely not be possible if you don't.”
"Don't even think that someone can get what they want without opening their mouths. That's where their strength lies, being able to hold others in critical situations. If they don't open their mouths, someone will help them, and they can also gain a good reputation. But if you fail to achieve this and believe that true love exists everywhere in the world and gold shines everywhere, then you are a fool. Our country lacks everything but people.
These words touched Su Xiu very much. She was truly moved and nodded quickly.
"Brother Xiao Wu, I understand. I understand everything when you say this. It was because I didn't dare to raise my opinion once, that the grocery store gave me the hard work that was originally taking turns for a long time. In the end, it became As it should be, I am also responsible for this. Don’t worry, I will learn from it and I will never do it again..."
Just when Hong Yanru seemed to have some realization, Hong Yanwu suddenly remembered something and asked again out of curiosity.
"Hey, Xiu'er, I'm surprised. You are embarrassed to talk about your affairs, but what about your father and your brother? They didn't help you. And now that I think about it, these days I haven’t seen any of them. Where are they? ”
