City streets in the seventies

Autumn is a season of harvest. The villagers of Shuangshui Village are very happy this year. They have made full use of various wastelands in the fields to plant some pig grass or corn. The extra harvest will naturally make their families live better and have more full meals.

Although people live under the same sky, they do not share the same joys and sorrows.

While the villagers of Shuangshui Village were immersed in the joy of harvest, Tian Fujun and Tian Runye, who were also from Shuangshui Village, were in difficult circumstances at the moment.

After Tian Fujun went deep into the grassroots and investigated the situation in the entire Yuanxi County, he found that many people were in extremely difficult situations, and some people had even begun to eat Guanyin soil.

Tian Fujun tried every possible way to change this situation, but all his suggestions were rejected by Feng Shikuan, the county's top leader. The two often had fierce arguments, and the people below also took sides.

Since Feng Shikuan was the top leader in the county, one level higher than Tian Fujun, and he had the support of Miao Kai, the top leader in the city, he naturally gained the support of the vast majority of people.

This also led to Tian Fujun wanting to do something practical for the people, but he was powerless and was even gradually sidelined.

Tian Fujun's lover Xu Aiyun saw this and naturally wanted to help her husband with all her strength. She also tried even harder to match Tian Runye and Li Xiangqian's marriage.

As long as Li Xiangqian's father Li Dengyun could support Tian Fujun, Tian Fujun's situation would be much better.

Ever since Li Xiangqian met Tian Runye, he has been pestering her to marry him. Even though Tian Runye has repeatedly and clearly refused, he still persists.

In order to marry Tian Runye, Li Xiangqian even cut his wrists and committed suicide, threatening his parents with death to help him marry Tian Runye.

Li Xiangqian also often went to Tian Runye's school to show his goodwill to Tian Runye's colleagues. He used his connections to ask school leaders for the key to Tian Runye's room and helped Tian Runye clean.

This series of crazy actions not only failed to win Tian Runye's favor, but made Tian Runye hate Li Xiangqian even more.

But Xu Aiyun always supported Li Xiangqian behind the scenes, trying every possible way to create opportunities for them and actively invited Li Xiangqian to her home for dinner.

On this day, Xu Aiyun once again took the initiative to create opportunities for the two and let Li Xiangqian drink to give him courage.

It turned out that Li Xiangqian was indeed emboldened by alcohol and even wanted to molest Runye after drinking.

If Tian Fujun had not returned in time, Tian Runye would have suffered a great loss.

Coincidentally, Lu Cheng came to visit Tian Fujun with gifts at this time. As soon as he arrived at the door of Tian Fujun's house, he saw Li Xiangqian running out in disheveled clothes, reeking of alcohol.

Lu Cheng briefly recalled the original plot and roughly guessed something. He sighed inwardly and thought that he had come at a really bad time today.

Just when Lu Cheng was about to turn around and leave, he saw Tian Fujun chasing Xu Aiyun out. It was obvious that the couple had had an argument.

Tian Fujun has always disapproved of his wife's excessive interference in his eldest niece's marriage, and even more so of using this kind of political marriage to gain support from others.

But Xu Aiyun was stubborn and never thought he was wrong.

Lu Cheng stood outside the courtyard gate, watching Tian Fujun and Xu Aiyun walk out one after another, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

Xu Aiyun glanced at Lu Cheng, who quickly greeted him. Xu Aiyun replied and rode away on his bicycle.

Tian Fujun sighed helplessly, then looked at Lu Cheng: "Lu Cheng, why are you here? What's the matter?"

"Nothing much, I just came to the county to buy some medicine and came to see you."

"Then come in and sit down."

"No, I just came to take a look."

"Come in, look at you kid. You're being so polite."

As he spoke, Tian Fujun pulled Lu Cheng into the yard.

At this time, Tian Runye in the yard still had red eyes. When she saw Lu Cheng coming, she greeted him hurriedly, turned into the house to wash her face, and went to get Lu Cheng some soda.

After entering the yard, Tian Fujun saw that Lu Cheng was still holding something in his hand, so he said, "Look at you kid, what are you taking from me? We have everything we need. Wait a minute, you can take these things back."

"Uncle Fujun, if it weren't for you and Director Xu's help, I wouldn't have the chance to study at the county hospital. I didn't have the chance to thank you properly, so these things are just a token of my appreciation."

"Okay, next time you come, don't take anything. If you do, I won't let you in."

After entering the house and sitting down, Tian Fujun asked, "Lu Cheng, what is the current situation in Shuangshui Village? Is the harvest good this year?"

"It's all good. Although we have only been given some extra land, it is something that everyone can use for themselves. Everyone is very motivated to work and has managed the wasteland very well. This year we will definitely produce a lot more food than last year, and we won't have such a hard time celebrating the New Year."

"That's good. You and Shaoan have made great contributions."

"If it weren't for Uncle Fujun, this matter would be difficult to implement. By the way, will Xiaoxia come back today?"

Tian Fujun turned to look at Tian Runye, who said, "You should be back. What do you want to talk to Xiaoxia about?"

"Actually, I want to borrow a set of high school textbooks from Xiaoxia."

Of course, Lu Cheng came here not only to see Tian Fujun and his wife, but also for that side quest.

Tian Xiaoxia died in 83 while saving others. If we wanted to save her from this disaster, we didn't have to wait until the accident in and rush to the scene to pull her out of the water.

The best way is to try to interfere with her destiny from now on and make her go in another direction.

When Tian Fujun heard that Lu Cheng wanted to borrow a set of high school textbooks, he immediately became interested: "Why did you think of borrowing high school textbooks? Aren't you concentrating on studying medicine?"

"I only studied until the second year of high school and was forced to drop out. I never learned all the high school knowledge. High school math, physics and chemistry knowledge is the foundation and is also very helpful for studying medicine. I want to complete all the high school knowledge."

"So that's how it is. Your idea is very good. Loving to study is a good thing. I heard from Aiyun before that you were very talented when you were studying medicine. Even the county hospital considered whether to recruit you."

Lu Cheng really didn't know all this, but thinking about the current situation of Tian Fujun and his wife, it would not be easy for Lu Cheng to use their connections to step into the county hospital.

Of course, Lu Cheng didn’t have this idea originally.

The college entrance examination will be resumed in two years, and Lu Cheng is ready to prepare well. By then, as long as the grades are good, won't it be possible to choose the best medical school in the country?

"Uncle Fujun, I actually have an immature idea, but I don't know whether I should say it or not."

"Oh? Tell me."

"Uncle Fujun, do you think the current recommendation to go to university is really a good idea?"

Nowadays, the college entrance examination has been suspended, and the recommendation of workers, peasants and soldiers to go to college is implemented. That is, the admission of college students is based on the recommendation of the masses, approval of the leaders, and review by the school.

The college students recruited in this way have a weak cultural foundation, and there are great differences in cultural knowledge among the same students. The selection criteria are also difficult to be fair, and naturally it is impossible to cultivate real talents.

Tian Fujun was stunned when he heard this: "Lu Cheng, don't say such things out loud."

"Uncle Fujun, I'm just telling you this. I won't say a word when we get out."

If Lu Cheng didn't know Tian Fujun's character clearly, and if he didn't have a clear understanding of his character, and if he hadn't received favors from their family and wanted to complete the side quest, he would never have said these things.

"That's good. I know the current system is not good, and I also know the big pot system in rural areas is not good. But these cannot be changed at present."

"I believe that everything will change. Although the winter on the Loess Plateau is long, it will eventually pass and there will always be a day when spring comes and flowers bloom. I have always believed in a saying that opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. If there is a change one day in the future and the college entrance examination is resumed, I will definitely take the college entrance examination and go to the best university to learn the best medical skills."

Tian Fujun was stunned again when he heard this, and then looked at Lu Cheng in surprise: "You kid, the words you say really don't sound like those of a high school student. I am a little surprised."
