Chapter 1 Ms. Tao, the outlaw madman
"Hey, that girl Tao Yushu hasn't come back yet?"
"It's already this time, why are you back? I heard that it's been half a year, and I haven't even written a letter. I just said that she is an educated youth in the city, she is as beautiful as a flower, and she was admitted to a prestigious school in Yanjing, and she can compete with
That boy from Chaoyang?”
"Er Chun is a man who loves scheming! He has been scheming all his life. How about he plot it for his own son?"
"Tao Yu, calligrapher, comes from a scholarly family. I heard that his family is also a professor at some university. In the second spring, he hoped to improve the varieties for the old Lin family. This time, it is good. He lost his wife and lost his army!"
"Hehe! This man, whoever is destined is destined to do the same. Don't be tough, being tough is useless!"
…
The large locust trees that are common in northern rural areas look like the oldest among them. In midsummer, their branches are lush and leafy, casting a huge patch of shade under the sunlight. Under the tree are a few middle-aged women in simple clothes.
While working, he talked about the incompetence of the parents in the team.
Today, the focus of their conversation is on Lin Erchun, the captain of the Xiaoyangtun Production Team, and his son Lin Chaoyang. Not only today, but in the past six months or so, this has been a hot topic among the women in the team.
At this time, a woman who looked to be in her fifties passed by. Her skin was rough, and her face was full of wrinkles left by years of hard work. Her lips were thinner than those of ordinary people, and she looked like an eloquent woman.
Seeing the woman, the voices under the locust tree suddenly dropped, and everyone's eyes were fixed on her, as if waiting for her to pass.
Zhang Guiqin did not hesitate in her steps. She knew very well what these old ladies had just said, and it was nothing more than something about her family.
In the past, if she found out about other people's secret affairs about their family, she could block the door and scold them for a long time.
Having been married to Lin Erchun for more than 20 years, she has always been the leader in the team, but now, she doesn't have that ambition anymore.
Zhang Guiqin passed by the locust tree, did not talk to the women, and walked by with her head held high.
It's just that although the back figure looks high and proud, in the eyes of the women, it looks more like running away.
"What are you so proud of?"
"She has no airs, she is clearly guilty."
The women under the locust tree burst into unbridled laughter.
The young man who was passing by in a hurry was not happy to listen to the gossip of this group of women, "Look at how you talk all day long. When you do some work, your mouth is like a waistband. Why can't you sit still?"
One of the women with a round face and a big butt replied: "Ermatai, you little bitch, how dare you talk to me like that? Do you believe that I will turn around and ask your father to whip you with a belt?"
"Fourth Aunt, stop looking for my father. Why don't you first see where my fourth uncle has gone?"
The round-faced woman was stunned for a moment. She didn't want to bother with Ermatai anymore and asked, "Didn't he go to the ground?"
"Anyway, I wasn't watching!"
The round-faced woman suddenly became anxious and stood up cursingly, "This bastard must have gone to the commune to find Sheng Laoliu again!"
The round-faced woman hurriedly went to find her money-making husband. One of her key men was missing, and the atmosphere of the symposium under the tree was a little deserted.
Ermatai sent the round-faced woman away with just one word. Her expression could not hide her pride. She turned around and left to look for the person.
He asked Zhang Guiqin, "Auntie, is Chaoyang at home?"
"No. I went out in the morning. You go to the school to see."
"I just came back from school and there was no one there."
"Then I don't know." Zhang Guiqin was in a bad mood and walked toward home without talking to Ermatita.
"Understood!"
"Understood!"
Er Maitai's broken gong voice shouted loudly in the team, but it did not disturb the young man who was lying on the firewood pile to bask in the sun.
The pile of firewood made of corn stalks is more than two meters high, neatly like the tofu cubes stacked by soldiers in the army.
Lin Chaoyang rested his head on his hands, holding a piece of dogtail grass in his mouth, and would draw a circle in the air from time to time. He crossed his legs and looked at the half-dark clouds in the sky. His mood had never been as good as now.
Have it easy.
Time traveled!
This is probably the biggest lottery win he has ever won in his life.
He was already 30 years old before the time travel. He returned to the pre-liberation period overnight, but he had no regrets or regrets in his heart. No matter how powerful you are and how rich you are, who can refuse the temptation of another life?
Traveling back to the young man with the same name, he felt the seemingly infinite energy and desire contained in his body. The boundless blue sky in front of him was just like his future life, this was the golden age of his life.
Is there anything better than this?
In a flash, it has been a year since he traveled back to the 1970s. Time flies so fast!
It's August now, and universities, middle schools, and primary schools are all on summer vacation. The little teacher in his team has no business. He has to go to the fields to farm when he should.
There was not much work in the team today. The team's loudspeaker had just finished shouting in the morning that a movie would be shown in the evening. The members had no intention of working at all and were all looking forward to the movie in the evening.
In recent years, the production brigade has become disorganized, and the labor intensity and discipline are not as good as before. Lin Chaoyang took a break and ran to a hidden firewood pile to think about life.
There are still four months to go before the Third Plenary Session of the Eleventh Central Committee of the Communist Party of China in December. When he thinks about the rapid pace of the times, Lin Chaoyang feels so passionate and ready to burst out.
However, the warm sunshine soon dissipated his complacency.
Intermittently complacent and constantly eating and waiting to die were the norm for many people in the era before time travel.
Lin Chaoyang was a migrant worker before time travel. He studied for twelve years in his previous life and finally got into 211. After leaving school, he discovered that graduate students are everywhere and undergraduates are not as good as dogs. If you want to get rich by working part-time, it will be difficult to reach the sky.
.
He worked hard for ten years and finally got to the middle level of the company. He came early and left late every day for the sake of performance. He hid himself in front of customers and had to flatter his boss. He didn't even have time to go on a blind date or fall in love.
But in the end, he sadly discovered that those who know how to work are not as good as those who can talk, and those who know how to talk are not as good as those who use the back door. His career has been destined to reach the ceiling from the very beginning, and no matter how hard you try, it will be useless.
When he reached middle age, he looked away. He wanted to follow the example of those old fritters and wait until death, but he didn't expect that the country was prosperous and the industry was booming, but he was going to be laid off.
I remember when he was in college, he was also a young man surrounded by girls!
But after entering the society, he was gradually forced by society to become the person he once hated most.
Lin Chaoyang spat out the dog's tail grass in his mouth, and his eyes seemed to travel through the void to see the "entrepreneurial godfather" and "tech giant" talking in front of the camera, and he hated evil as much as he hated it.
"Working? tui! Even dogs won't be beaten!"
During this year of time travel, Lin Chaoyang had already figured it out. After it was opened, he would first use the prophetic advantage of time travel to get the first pot of gold, and then support a few younger brothers to work for him, and then just lie down and be a salted fish.
In his previous life, he had been a part-time worker all his life. He was as tired as a dog in the company. He had to endure difficulties from customers and bosses at every turn. From time to time, he had to wipe the butt of the heartless post-95s and post-00s subordinates. When he returned home
I am alone, and have to bear the pressure of relatives at home to get married during the holidays.
God finally gave him a lottery ticket, so why not enjoy it?
If he doesn't live his life like a flat fish, he will be sorry to God!
This is to say that he has traveled through time to a young man from the countryside. If he had time traveled to a young man from a high-ranking official, why would he have to worry about these things? He could just get some approval slips and find some white gloves, and he would have been fine long ago.
The chaotic thoughts in my mind were jumping around, and occasionally a bright and beautiful face would pop up in front of my eyes.
I don’t know how my little educated youth wife is doing now?
The thought flashed past, and Lin Chaoyang's lips curved into a smile.
The educated youth who have been admitted to university are just like the huskies who gave up their hands. Do you still expect them to look back?
He was laughing at his naivety in his heart, and heard a cry in his ears.
"Understood!"
The rough shout caught Lin Chaoyang's attention, and he raised his eyes with his hands on his hands.
In a moment, the sound got closer and louder, awakening Lin Chaoyang's closeness and bond with this era.
I saw a black whirlwind among the flying dust, and the figure appeared in front of me in an instant.
He was over 1.8 meters tall, as strong as an ox, with a square face. The blunt hairstyle on his head gave him a somewhat tough temperament. Unfortunately, the only flaw was that his sharp eyes were a bit cross-eyed, which made his whole body look more attractive.
The temperament is greatly reduced.
"What's the fuss about?" Lin Chaoyang scolded.
Ermatai ran closer, raised his head and said eagerly to Lin Chaoyang: "I understand, guess who I was looking at in the commune?"
Lin Chaoyang put down his arms and lay back again. His voice was unhurried and unhurried, "It doesn't matter what you say. If you want to say something, just say it. If you don't say it, I will push you down."
Seeing him like this, Ermatai was no longer anxious, "You really don't want to know?"
"I don't want to know." Lin Chaoyang replied with half-squinted eyes. Suddenly he remembered something, stood up and asked, "Where is my newspaper?"
Ermatai went to the commune today, and Lin Chaoyang asked him to go to the post office to deliver two newspapers. When Ermatai came back, there was no newspaper in his hand, and Lin Chaoyang was immediately unhappy.
Ermatai heard this and said angrily: "How long has it been and you are still thinking about your newspaper?"
"You know nothing!" Lin Chaoyang cursed.
It is true that Lin Chaoyang traveled through time, but he had never experienced the early period of reform and opening up in his previous life. The past he understood through the texts and video materials before time traveling was only superficial.
Therefore, for more than half a year, he has been reading books and reading newspapers. He never stops listening to the loudspeaker broadcasts in the team and fully absorbs the nutrients of reality. These will become the stepping stones for his future success.
With a prophet and a full understanding of the actual policies, he will be sure to be successful when he comes out.
Lin Chaoyang also wanted to explain some truth to Ermatai, but before he could speak, Ermatai blurted out: "I saw Tao Yushu!"
It's like a patient with prostatitis standing in front of the urinal, and the words that come to his mouth are blocked, and he can only click out a few words: "She... how... is she back...?"
Lin Chaoyang has always felt that he is a time traveler with a bright future. He has his own future to pursue, and he will not delay his future by begging for nothing.
What's more, now that you've let go, you have to be more free and easy.
But when he heard the name "Tao Yushu" again, he still couldn't hold back the flutter in his heart.
Ermatai looked at Lin Chaoyang's reaction, feeling a little proud, and wrote a few words on his face: You keep pretending to me!
"Do you still need to ask? I'll come back to you. You two are a married couple who have obtained the certificate." Ermatai replied.
I've pulled the evidence, I've pulled the evidence, I've never fired my spear once, Lin Chaoyang added in his heart.
Tao Yushu came to Xiaoyangtun Educated Youth Camp in 1972. As soon as she appeared, she amazed the entire educated youth camp and the commune with her bright and beautiful appearance.
In less than a month, her beauty spread throughout several surrounding communes and counties, and an endless stream of young men came to the educated youth spot to admire her beauty. This even led to several jealous lawsuits.
In the special era of the 1970s, the words "single", "beautiful" and "female educated youth" were superimposed together, and it seemed that Tao Yushu was destined to experience hardships in his career as an educated youth.
But to everyone's expectation, except for the occasional farce caused by the young man who admired Ai, Tao Yushu's queue-jumping life at Xiaoyangtun's educated youth spot was unexpectedly peaceful.
The reason is inseparable from Tao Yushu's own responsibilities. She came from a scholarly family, but she was not a charming lady. She never fell behind others in her work.
Facing the educated youth centers and communes, young men from all walks of life in the county never put any color on their overt or covert overtures and pursuits. She was a woman who was extremely determined, self-respecting and self-respecting.
Lin Chaoyang is the only son of Lin Erchun, the captain of Xiaoyangtun Production Brigade. He had an older brother in his early years, but unfortunately he died in infancy.
Therefore, in terms of Lin Chaoyang's upbringing, Lin Erchun and his wife seemed to be overly doting on him. Of course, given the conditions of this era, material doting was not to mention, but more of a spiritual one.
The favor of his parents was reflected in Lin Chaoyang's growing environment, which saved him a lot of hardship. After graduating from junior high school, Lin Erchun arranged for Lin Chaoyang to teach in the team primary school.
In this era of rural areas, team primary school teachers were the only employment options for rural young people after taking the entrance examination, recruiting workers, and serving as soldiers.
Lin Chaoyang's ability to become a teacher in this team is not considered as a personal use of his father Lin Erchun. After all, his junior high school education is the academic ceiling of Xiao Yangtun.
Junior high school education is not high, but it is rare in rural areas of this era.
As a team teacher, Lin Chaoyang can earn ten work points just by teaching every day, which is not too easy for club members.
However, during the winter and summer vacations, he had to participate in labor like other commune members, and because of this opportunity, he became familiar with the educated youth who worked together.
Lin Chaoyang was in his youth, and Tao Yushu, a female educated youth, was beautiful, came from a scholarly family, and had an outstanding temperament. Naturally, she became the person of his dreams, but he always had an unrequited love.
Until his father Lin Erchun noticed his son's thoughts.
My son likes Tao Yushu. If the two of them can really get married, they will be able to borrow their strength sooner or later. Then they may be able to jump out of the farm in one fell swoop and honor the ancestors of the old Lin family.
Moreover, Tao Yushu went to the countryside to join the army in 1972, and was three years older than Lin Chaoyang. As the saying goes, if a girl is a junior, she will have a gold brick. Lesbians are precocious by nature. The older they are, they will definitely know how to love someone after they get married.
In addition, Tao Yushu had never had any scandals during the four years he had been at the educated youth spot.
In terms of appearance, character, temperament, and family background, there is nothing wrong with him.
Lin Erchun wanted to develop a female educated youth with outstanding conditions like her into a daughter-in-law. If he told it, he would probably be laughed at. They would laugh at him, saying that the toad in the Lin family wanted to eat swan meat.
But he profoundly practiced what the great man said: No matter what you do in the world, be afraid of being serious.
In order to create more opportunities for his son Lin Chaoyang to get along with Tao Yushu, he did not hesitate to move his son from his position as a primary school teacher to the fields. When assigning labor tasks, he always inadvertently assigned Lin Chaoyang and Tao Yushu together.
After half a year, Lin Erchun felt that time was almost up and planned to create further opportunities for his son.
But before Lin Erchun could take action, Lin Chaoyang broke his wishful thinking with a heroic rescue of the beauty.
During a collective labor operation, Lin Chaoyang was injured and lost a lot of blood in order to save Tao Yushu who accidentally fell down a steep slope.
It was precisely because of this injury that the original Lin Chaoyang died and was replaced by the soul of a social animal from decades later.
The brand-new Lin Chaoyang woke up from a serious injury. What he saw when he opened his eyes was crying pear blossoms and rain, and I saw Tao Yushu who was still pitiful.
Before time travel, Lin Chaoyang only had a relationship that ended in vain in college. After working, he fell into endless work and overtime. When had he ever enjoyed such treatment? He accepted it all without any violation.
The original legacy.
Lin Chaoyang was seriously injured in order to save Tao Yushu. Tao Yushu was filled with gratitude and took care of him while he was bedridden, and their relationship grew rapidly.
When Lin Chaoyang recovered from his serious illness, his father Lin Erchun couldn't wait to propose marriage to Tao Yushu on his son's behalf.
After hesitation, Tao Yushu informed Lin Chaoyang that she had just received a letter from her father recently.
A few years ago, Tao Yushujia's family had a very miserable life due to family background problems. Her parents and brothers were separated in different places, and only one little sister was cared for by the policy and was placed with relatives in Yanjing.
After F4 was crushed, Tao Yushu knew that good times would soon come to her family, but she didn't expect the good news to come so quickly.
According to my father's description in the letter, my parents have received an ordinary salary (not a typo) and will be assigned to work in the original unit immediately. Their wages in previous years will also be compensated after returning to Beijing.
Such great news made Tao Yushu cry with joy, but what made her even happier was yet to come.
In the letter, his father told Tao Yushu in a subtle way that the higher authorities were studying the resumption of the college entrance examination, and the policy might be announced soon, so Tao Yushu must take this opportunity to take the exam back to Yanjing.
When Tao Yushu and her group of educated youths went to the countryside to join the army, they all canceled their urban household registrations and rushed to take root in the frontier for the rest of their lives. However, several years of hard rural life had already worn away the passion in their hearts.
In the past two years, many educated youths in the educated youth spots who are tired of the life of jumping in the queue want to return to the city. The children of the military enlist the help of connections to join the army. The smart ones secretly study on their own and carefully manage their interpersonal relationships in order to get a recommendation place at the Workers', Peasants and Soldiers University...
While others were busy digging and stealing holes to return to the city, Tao Yushu remained indifferent because she knew very well that with the status of her family, it would be difficult to return to the city. Her father's letter made Tao Yushu see the prospect of returning to the city and going to college.
hope.
Although his relationship experience is not rich, Lin Chaoyang has seen many love affairs between men and women in his previous life.
When people want to move forward, he will naturally not stop him. On the contrary, he appreciates Tao Yushu's outspoken character. There have been too many scandals caused by returning to the city these days.
On October 21, 1977, the brigade's loudspeaker sounded on time, playing the news and newspaper summary program of the Central People's Broadcasting Station. An exciting news came:
The country has resumed college entrance examination!
Lin Chaoyang specially found Tao Yushu a set of mathematics, physics and chemistry books, as well as various review materials that would help her take the college entrance examination. His actions moved Tao Yushu's heart, and also made her parents disagree.
Tao Yushu is going to college, which almost means that his son's marriage will be ruined, but his stupid son is still rushing to provide help. This is because he is afraid that his wife will not run fast enough!
Two months passed by in a flash, and in December Tao Yushu walked into the examination room.
In early February of the following year, before the Lantern Festival, the commune postman delivered Tao Yushu's admission notice.
She was admitted to Yenching Normal University!
The news quickly spread throughout the county. Only four people in the county were admitted to college this year, and Tao Yushu was the only one who was admitted to a prestigious school in Yanjing.
Being admitted to university also means that Tao Yushu is about to fly away.
But I don't know what she was thinking, but she wanted to get married to Lin Chaoyang at this time.
Lin Chaoyang was born in the 1970s, but his thinking was that of the post-90s generation. He would not stop his girlfriend from pursuing her future, but what was the point of asking for evidence before leaving?
After you pulled the evidence, you walked away in style. Won't I become a second-married man from now on?
He thought in his heart that the reason why Tao Yushu did this was probably because of his emotions. It didn't matter that she was in trouble for the moment, but she was ruining his reputation for half his life, so Lin Chaoyang naturally couldn't agree.
His actions made Tao Yushu angry, and he cried and accused Lin Chaoyang in front of Lin Erchun and his wife.
Faced with this situation, Lin Erchun and his wife were dumbfounded.
Another family found an educated youth daughter-in-law and son-in-law, both of whom were educated youth and wanted to leave. The whole family tried to persuade them to stay. How come it was the other way around when it came to Lao Lin's family?
After Lin Chaoyang told his parents what he was thinking, Lin Erchun also started to mutter in his heart that this was indeed a hidden danger.
After much thought, Lin Erchun came up with a solution.
He was the production team leader, and he could issue a marriage certificate. After going to the hospital for a premarital examination, he went to the commune to find an acquaintance to steal the certificate secretly, without anyone noticing, and the wedding was not held.
In this way, even if Tao Yushu goes to the city and never comes back, and divorces his son, others will not know that his son is married for the second time.
Faced with his old father's saucy operations, Lin Chaoyang commented: The old man wants to improve varieties and is crazy!
However, Tao Yushu had overwhelming numerical support, and Lin Chaoyang's opposition was ineffective.
On February 20, 1978, Comrade Lin Chaoyang presented a marriage certificate and was forced to become a married man.
That day was 349 days away from the legal age for marriage when he turned 20.
According to Teacher Luo, Ms. Tao Yushu is definitely an outlaw.
Of course, this kind of thing will be commonplace in rural areas in twenty years time, not to mention now, and it is not surprising.
After receiving the marriage certificate, Lin Chaoyang decided to exercise his legal rights as a husband with the mentality of not taking advantage of the bastard.
But before he could take off his pants, Tao Yushu rushed to the train station with his luggage. Yan Normal University will start school on February 22.
This marriage is so frustrating!
Lin Chaoyang felt like he was being manipulated by a little girl from the 1970s. Before leaving, he gave Tao Yushu a shocking French wet kiss on the train platform.
After the passionate kiss, he did not forget to show the marriage certificate in his hand to the surprised eyes around him, "What are you looking at? A legal couple!"
The people around looked at Tao Yushu's flowery face, and then looked at Lin Chaoyang's vulgar behavior, and they could only sigh in private.
"Immoral!"
"A flower stuck in cow dung!"
After the kiss, Lin Chaoyang felt much relieved. He wanted to say goodbye casually, but instead, Tao Yushu hugged him tightly, with tears streaming down his face.
"You wait for me!"
Usually in movies and TV dramas, the moment these words are spoken, it means separation or death. Lin Chaoyang was already prepared in his heart that Tao Yushu would never come back.
No matter what Lin Chaoyang's mental journey was, Tao Yushu was gone after all.
Except for the two days when he was depressed at the beginning, Lin Chaoyang soon returned to his careless state, teaching, working on the farm, reading books and newspapers, and practicing dog pawing for the coming era.
Tao Yushu's absence gradually increased, and there was not even a letter for several months.
This was not what Lin Chaoyang expected, but he just lamented that women can fall out of love much more efficiently than men can pull out ruthlessness.
During this period, Lin Chaoyang was inevitably criticized by his team members.
What about "the toad wants to eat the swan meat", "stealing the chicken but losing the rice", "I didn't climb the high branch and fell down"...
And this criticism has not dissipated with the passage of time, but has become more intense, and may eventually turn into a lifelong "stain" on Lin Chaoyang.
Lin Chaoyang himself did not take these words to heart, but he made Lin Erchun and his wife very worried. They used to be decent people in the team, but now they are unwilling to say a word when they meet people.
The memories in his mind stopped here, and Lin Chaoyang warned Ermatai: "Don't talk nonsense!"
The people in the team don't know yet that Lin Chaoyang and Tao Yushu were cheating on each other. If they knew about it, the level of public opinion would probably rise to another two levels.
He didn't have anything to do with it, he was just worried that the old couple wouldn't be able to bear it.
Ermatai raised her eyebrows at him, "Don't worry, I'm so strict!"
Lin Chaoyang nodded, this was one of the few advantages of Ermatai.
With a neat jump, Lin Chaoyang jumped off the pile of firewood and left with a meteoric stride.
"Hey, why are you going?" Ermatai asked from behind him.
"I'm hungry, go home and eat!" Lin Chaoyang said without looking back.
Chapter completed!
