From the History of the Republic of China to Raising Children in the 1970s

The other party naturally didn't know what Li Chengye was thinking. Jiang Meizhu was stomping her feet and gritting her teeth at the gate of the steel factory. If Li Chengye appeared in front of her at this time, she would definitely bite him until he bled.

"Dad, look at what kind of people they are. You helped their family a lot in the past, but now they don't want to care about you, an old man, and they are too lazy to even meet you." Jiang Meizhu's words to her father were also unpleasant.

□□ listened to his daughter's words with a bad look on his face. He didn't agree or object. His back, which was straight in the past, had already bent slightly, as if something was always pressing on his back.

Jiang Meizhu did not finish her words and continued: "The Li family is not a good family. It's a pity that one is a widow and the other is a second marriage. I don't know what sins they committed in their previous life. I don't think they will have a good life in the future..."

Jiang Meizhu almost went too far, and finally even talked about Li Chengye's father.

"Okay, shut up!" He really couldn't stand his daughter's nonsense anymore, and suddenly shouted, which scared Jiang Meizhu. She was stunned, with her mouth wide open, forgetting to close it.

But Jiang Meizhu is not so easily frightened. She was raised by □□ and was not afraid of him at all. She reacted angrily: "Why should I shut up? Is there anything wrong with what I said?..."

"Ah!" □□ sighed painfully. Maybe the older people get, the softer they act.

Jiang Meizhu and her daughter naturally don't want to leave if they don't achieve their goals, but Li Chengye and his men are very determined. □□ and his men can't leave the village for too long. There is no way. The most important thing for them is to go back. After all, whether to help or not depends on the relationship between the two parties, and □□ and Li Chengye's family don't seem to have much relationship. Even if there is, these few things have consumed this little bit of relationship.

The weather in the small county town was getting colder and colder. When almost everyone put on their cotton padded jackets, the college entrance examination in 1977 was also here.

The northwest wind was blowing, and a thin layer of ice formed on the water pits outside the window. Li's mother pushed open the door of the main room and felt the cold wind outside. Her brows were tightly wrinkled and her face was full of worry.

"This damn weather is really frustrating." She had just finished saying this when Li Chengye walked out of the room and heard this sentence.

"Mom."

Mother Li quickly closed the door and smiled, "Why are you up so soon? It's still early. You should sleep a little longer."

Li Chengye also smiled and shook his head, "I went to bed early last night and I've had enough sleep now. By the way, Xiaoxi and Xiaobei haven't woken up yet, right?"

Mother Li nodded and walked to Li Chengye's side, "Those two guys were up late last night. They haven't made any noise yet."

"By the way, the meal is ready. You should wash up first and I'll bring the meal to you."

"Okay." Li Chengye nodded in agreement and went to clean himself up.

Mother Li went to the kitchen. When Li Chengye cleaned up and returned to the main hall, Mother Li was already sitting there waiting. A large bowl of noodles was placed on the dining table in the main hall.

Seeing Li Chengye coming, Li's mother immediately smiled and called people over, "Come here quickly, I made you a bowl of shredded pork noodles with two poached eggs in it, you should eat more in the morning, otherwise you will be exhausted later."
