The book is set in the 1970s, and it’s not easy to be the villain’s mother

Bai Lang is a carefree person who lives a casual life. He hopes to earn a little money, eat and drink every day, and be content with his wife and children.

But Sun Lan's pursuit is obviously higher. She likes reading novels, listening to music, and yearns for big cities.

In short, she hopes to live a more hierarchical life and works hard for it.

There were so many educated youths in the village who applied for college, but she was the only one who got admitted. During this period, she took care of her children alone and had to do housework and earn work points, which shows how hard she worked.

"Sun Lan wants to go to college and have a better life, so I help her."

"She likes you so much, so she must be very disappointed in you." Gu Tian said.

Bai Lang said nothing and lowered his head to smoke.

It was Sun Lan who took the initiative to pursue Bai Lang, and she was the one who started the conversation. But gradually, Sun Lan got tired.

When Bai Lang came home, he didn't like to do housework very much. He didn't like to cook. He only put off doing the laundry and dishes until the last moment. He would do it lazily after being urged many times by Sun Lan.

After having children, she often quarreled over housework, and these trivial matters made her increasingly uncomfortable.On the day she received the notice, Sun Lan filed for divorce from Bai Lang.

"Just think that I have tricked you. I don't want any of the family's money. I can't take care of the child for the time being. I will take it with me when I graduate."

Bai Lang looked at her with red eyes: "Is it because I didn't pass the college entrance examination? Do you think I'm not worthy of you?"

Sun Lan thought for a while and said: "Yes, and no. Maybe I didn't love you particularly from the beginning. I just wanted to find someone to protect me and comfort me. I'm sorry."

When he said these words now, Bai Lang was very calm and had no intention of blaming her.

"I gave her half of the money. She is a very good person. She doesn't like doing business, but she worked hard to help me. We are just not suitable."

Shi Hongzhao patted him on the shoulder to comfort him: "Can you take care of the child yourself?"

"Yes." Bai Lang said, "If it doesn't work, I'll find a nanny to help find her."

Bai Lang did not find a nanny. In the spring of 1979, he remarried.

She is a female educated youth from a neighboring village. She has been in love with Bai Lang for a long time and has never forgotten him.I heard that he was divorced, so I asked a matchmaker to arrange a marriage.

"She works as a salesperson in No. 1 Co., Ltd. She wants a bride price of [-] yuan. She will be given a house as a bride and she said she would treat my children as her own. I agreed."

Gu Tian said, "Do you like her?"

Bai Lang smoked a cigarette and smiled: "That's it. It doesn't matter whether you love her or not. I am busy with business now and have no time to take care of my children. Xiaoli has a gentle personality and is sincere to me. I am quite satisfied. "

Gu Tian frowned, but it was always someone else's business and she couldn't say anything. Besides, marriage and love in the 70s were completely different from now. Love was not the most important thing, but living life.

"Some people may never meet someone they truly like in their lifetime. I don't have any hope either."

Gu Tian was stunned. It was indeed true. Being with your lover was a very lucky thing, not inevitable.

I am so lucky to be with the one I love.

Bai Lang wasn't going to have a wedding, so Gu Tian was going to find an opportunity to give him a red envelope in a few days.

By the way, he also talked about some things that happened in the village.

"Those educated youths have all left and returned to the city, and they are basically divorced."

When we were in the village, everyone supported each other and spent the miserable time together, but once they saw hope, they immediately fell apart.

"The most egregious one is Lin Yuanyuan. She stole all the money from her husband's family, threw several children into her husband's family and ran away."

Gu Tian was shocked: "This woman is really crazy! Is this what her family is going to do?"

"How is it possible? They have already reported it. But they said it was joint property between husband and wife. It is not considered theft."

Her husband's family was helpless, but fortunately she finally gave birth to a son, who could be considered an heir to his family.

"Her father-in-law is looking for a matchmaker and wants to find another wife for his son. This time he is determined not to marry one from the city, but one from the village. He is probably afraid of the trouble."

Other families in the village are doing things as usual, having weddings and funerals, and living a good life.

This year, the household quota was also implemented, and every household was assigned a field.Everyone's enthusiasm was mobilized, and they started turning the soil and applying fertilizer before dawn. It was completely different from the previous situation of hanging around in the production team.

There is bound to be a bumper harvest.

Gu Tian said: "Who will farm the land of Gu Laowen's family?"

Bai Lang said: "It was rented out and his wife ran away."

Gu Tian smiled: "Yes, now that it is open and lively, it's time to run away."

Li Rong could not run away before because the population was not allowed to move and he had to have a letter of introduction before leaving the village. Otherwise, if he was caught, he would have to be rehabilitated.In addition, since Gu Laowen was still alive, she found a lover, which was difficult for her morally.

But now it can be circulated casually.

Li Rong didn't want to spend any more time with Gu Laowang.

"I heard that her son studied cooking in the south and became prosperous, so she went to join her son. Li Rong left a letter to the village committee, saying that she asked her son to take care of him in old age, and Gu Laowen asked you to take care of him in old age. One shot and two Disperse."

Gu Tian sneered: "It's a beautiful thought. I still say the same thing, please tell me when Gu Laowen is about to die."

Over the years, in the eyes of outsiders, her treatment of Gu Laowen was pretty good.

Although she didn't go back, she kept giving good things, medicine, and money.

Gu Tian wants Li Rong and Gu Laowen to torture each other.No one can leave anyone.

But now that Li Rong has run away, Gu Laowen is completely consumed by her high-salt, high-sugar, and high-fat diet.

Gu Tian was too lazy to win the championship and gave Bai Lang some money.

"Buy him whatever he wants to eat, and then help me find an old lady in the village to be a nanny to take care of Gu Laowen. Give him food and drink, and help with laundry and other things."

Bai Lang agreed: "No problem. I'm leaving!"

Watching Bai Lang leave, Gu Tian felt very emotional.

In an era of great change, everyone has his or her own opportunities and also his or her own constraints.

Gu Tian returned home and saw a strange boy sitting on the sofa.

"Oh, this is..."

The boy stood up and said politely, "Hello, aunt."

Du Jiang came over with a smile: "Don't you know him? It's Da Zhuang."

Gu Tian was shocked: "Da Zhuang has grown into a handsome young man! I didn't even notice it."

Da Zhuang smiled and said: "Let me see you. This time I am going to the province to participate in a mathematics competition. I heard that my uncle has a map of the provincial capital area. I want to borrow it to have a look."

Gu Tian quickly said: "That's right, congratulations!"

Du Jiang handed the map to Da Zhuang: "If you pass the exam, you will get extra points, right?"

Da Zhuang said: "I'm not here for extra points, just for an opportunity to practice. Then I'll leave first."

Gu Tian asked him to stay for dinner, but Da Zhuang refused.

When he left, Xiuer and Du Daming came home from school together.

Xiu'er greeted her with a smile: "Why are you here? By the way, did you keep the things your father gave you?" Xiu'er said: "There is still money in it."
