Time Travel Article: Tool Man Rejects Plot

Gu Guangping's words made Gu Mingyue's heart move.

There is a lot of space, not counting the ones prepared at the beginning.

Just say that I exchanged them from Boss Zhou and bought them in Harbin, but I never used them much.

The purpose of exchanging food is to take this opportunity to allow the village to stock up on food.

But if she just gave the instruction verbally, few people in the village would care.

In that case, even if the food is replaced, it will still be consumed quickly.

It would be better to wait for her to find an opportunity to talk about the drought in the southwest before bringing up the issue of stockpiling food.

I think that would attract more attention than it does now.

As for this time.......

She could change the cloth or something else. In fact, this would be more convenient for her.

Although these things are more valuable than food, the demand is different.

It is like facing a starving person, putting a steamed bun and a gold ingot in front of him and asking him to choose.

Needless to say, food is the most basic need. So she really didn't feel bad about taking the cloth alone.

Besides, not to mention that she would definitely not lose money if she put those dates in the space and sold them at a high price during the New Year.

If it was just about changing the cloth, she might not even have to do it herself.

Because she thought of Bai Fenglai.

I don't know how she handled the situation.

I'll go to the town to ask later. If the problem has been handled, there's no need to contact Master Yang. It'll be easier to go directly to her.

Given Bai Fenglai's position in the textile factory, changing cloth was naturally easy.

Thinking of this, Gu Mingyue asked, "Do you have anything else you want to exchange? Tell me all of them and I'll write them down. Let's talk about it in advance. If you can exchange them, that's the best. If you can't, exchange whatever you have. No one is allowed to be picky."

Everyone agreed in unison.

Some people want cloth, some want thermos, some want cotton as winter is coming...

Gu Mingyue counted what they needed one by one, and then rode her bicycle to the town.

Don’t mention it, there are quite a lot of things going on today.

She had to go find Bai Fenglai and also go to Master Lu to get back the clothes he gave her, otherwise, people would think she disliked them.

Then it’s time to submit your article.

Yes, she wrote another one.

When she was explaining various strange men to Lu Xue and Xu Xiwen, their shocked expressions and their attentive attitude gave her some new ideas.

Both college students were still unsatisfied with what she mentioned, and wondered if someone would like to read the story if it was written down.

People say her writing skills are average, but she doesn't deny it and doesn't force it. After all, it's sheer wishful thinking to want to improve her writing skills in a short period of time.

It would be better to change the style, change the track, and join the story newspaper.

As for the story...

There are so many weird things in later generations, just write one...something bloody, shocking, killing one's own flesh and blood for love, etc.

I believe that in today's conservative era, it will be absolutely explosive.

For this submission, she prepared a long story.

She wants to write a serialized series, but she doesn't know if it will be approved.

The story is presented from the perspective of the little girl Man Yue.

It tells the story of Man Yue's hometown being hit by a flood, and her parents and brothers were mercilessly taken away by the flood.

Everyone told her that her family had died, but she didn't believe it and resolutely set out along the river to find her family.

On the way, she met many people, some good, some bad, some pitiful...

Hear all kinds of shocking and incredible stories from their mouths.

The first story unfolds immediately...

Kucaihua's husband was cheating on her, but she showed no remorse when she found out.

Instead, he became even more disgusted with Ku Caihua because she was old and ugly and asked for a divorce.

No matter how much she begged, her husband never changed his mind. He even forced her out of the house and did not even let her have contact with the children.

Ku Caihua went to her husband and parents-in-law’s house many times to beg for mercy, but all she got in return was verbal abuse and beatings from her husband and parents-in-law.

She was disheartened and decided to commit suicide by jumping into the river.

When her husband received the news of her death, he only said, "Her death has nothing to do with me."

Her parents thought she was unlucky and wouldn't let her be buried in the ancestral tomb.

In private, for money, he actually arranged a ghost marriage for her.

Not only that, they went to the men's workplace to cause trouble in the name of Ku Cai Hua.

In the end, the man had to spend two hundred dollars to buy peace of mind.

Her family used the money to help her younger brother build a house and get married.

The husband and the woman outside go out together and live a happy life.

The flesh and blood affectionately calls someone else "mother".

Because the woman outside is so strong, the parents-in-law have changed their previous domineering attitude.

They do the laundry, cooking, and cleaning the house themselves, becoming good parents-in-law in the eyes of the young wives nearby.

Everyone's life goes on as usual, with no impact at all, and what's worse, it's getting better.

As for Kucaihua, a living person, there is no trace of her in this world except for the receipt of two hundred yuan, and no one cares about her.

The story was told to her by the old lady who fled famine with Man Yue. The bitter herb was her former neighbor.

At the end, she concluded in the tone of an old lady:

I thought I had found my ideal husband, but unexpectedly I encountered a devil on earth.

Remember, don't punish others by hurting yourself.

What you think is a punishment may actually be a relief for those who don’t care about you.

If you don’t even love yourself, why should others care?

This is a true story. The reality is even more tragic and more infuriating than what is described in the article.

Part of the reason why Gu Mingyue wrote this story was that she wanted to find a different approach.

It is said that her articles tend to be realistic, so she started from this idea.

Another part was thinking, why did those things she said to Lu Xue and Xu Xiwen find it so eye-opening even for these two people who came from high-ranking official families?

Later, I recalled chatting with my eldest sister-in-law and listening to her gossip about things in the surrounding villages, mostly about family matters and mostly about women.

She concluded that they were not ignorant, they just didn't realize it.

On May 1950, 5, China promulgated the Marriage Law, which formally established the monogamous marriage system.

It has been less than ten years, which means that the liberation of women’s thinking shackles has just begun.

What do people care about in this era?

No matter how life turns out, you have to endure it.

Whether it is being tortured by the mother-in-law, being abused by the husband, or being insulted by the husband's family and being sucked dry by her own family.

Even if you are covered in bruises and holes, you have to get by with your life.

Even if there are open-minded women who bravely take the first step towards resistance, it is still difficult.

Because the strange looks around you will never be from a female perspective.

Most of them blame the victim. Why can others get away with it but you can't? Why do they hit you instead of others?

This concept is still inherited by some people even in the 21st century.

It seems that after so many years of fighting against feudal superstition, we still cannot remove the smelly foot bindings on those people's brain stems.

For example, if a man is not decent, he is called a playboy, while if a woman is not decent, she is called a "slut" or a "slut".

For example, what impressed her most was:

When I was in high school, a male teacher criticized a female classmate who didn’t study, “Don’t affect others if you don’t study. I know you women don’t have to worry about making money. Just cross your legs and the money will come…”

At first, she didn't understand until she saw the boys winking at each other with malicious intent, then she realized what was going on!

It is unknown what she was thinking at that time, but those words are still fresh in her memory and make her feel chilled.

She's not a feminist, but she's a woman!

If she turns a blind eye to all the injustice today, this discrimination will eventually backfire and hit her.

Of course, when it comes down to it, all her actions are indeed mixed with a lot of selfishness, and everything is based on the premise of protecting herself.

So what?

She only has so much ability, so if she puts all her efforts into it, she may never be able to do it.

Within her own ability, she can do something that is within her power, but it may be insignificant...

At least, she has tried her best and put her heart into it. As long as she has done it, it is better than nothing!
