Rebirth in 1958: Getting rich starts from Nanluoguxiang

When they arrived at the gate of the military compound, the guard still refused to let them in. The guard carefully checked Dabao's work ID, called the Lu family, and then saluted and let them in.

Zuo Mingyue hadn't been home for almost a month. When he stepped into the military compound again, his mood was completely different. There was a hint of melancholy amidst his joy.

After all, she had lived with Grandma Li for more than ten years, and it was the last thing she wanted to see.

Dabao completely understood Zuo Mingyue's thoughts. He rubbed Zuo Mingyue's hat. Zuo Mingyue looked up and smiled, and suddenly felt inexplicably at ease.

So there's no such thing as a truly straight man? There's only a difference between likes and dislikes.

As Dabao's motorcycle turned around, he saw several figures of different sizes standing at the gate of his grandmother's courtyard.

Dabao was happy when he saw it. The two older ones were Lu Tong and Lu Li, and the three little ones were naturally Erbao and his two younger sisters.

Dabao stopped the car, he had to stop because several little guys rushed over.

Dabao got out of the car with open arms, ready for a big hug, but unexpectedly the little guys made an emergency turn and rushed towards Zuo Mingyue and Nuannuan in the sidecar.

Dabao only caught Xiaoerbao, who was so anxious that he kept jumping up and down: "Brother, please let me go, I want to go see my niece..."

I don't love you anymore, you are a bunch of ungrateful people. You forgot about your brother's things when you had your sister-in-law and niece! I will never be friends with them again, and I will never play with them again.

A group of children, laughing and joking, escorted Zuo Mingyue into the yard, leaving Dabao behind, pushing his motorcycle and singing a sad song in his heart...

Dabao took the things from the car into the house one by one. No one came to help him. Even his grandparents, who loved him the most, gave their brightest smiles to Zuo Mingyue and Nuannuan. Love is like a poem: I left quietly...

Dabao rushed the goat, rice, flour, vegetables and fruits into the kitchen. Looking back, he saw a large group of people gathered together. Niuniu was so anxious that she shouted: "I, I want to see my niece..."

Dabao shook his head. Alas, his daughter has become the darling of the group, and his own position is no longer secure.

Xiao Nuan Nuan doesn't look unfamiliar at all, and she is always happy when anyone teases her. This makes her even more popular.

At this time, Lu Tong turned around and called out: "Brother, when did you come in?"

Dabao was almost furious. Well, I moved things back and forth several times, and you guys couldn’t see it, right?

Lu Tong and Lu Li jumped over, each holding Dabao's arm.

"Brother, do you remember what day it is today?"

Dabao shook his head: "What day? Isn't it Sunday?"

Lu Tong and Lu Li pouted: "Think about it carefully!"

Dabao suddenly realized: "Oh, I remember..."

Lu Tong and Lu Li looked at Dabao expectantly.

"There are only twenty days left until May Day. I need to think about how to spend it."

Lu Tong and Lu Li looked at each other and burst into tears: "Brother, you are so bad. You even forgot our birthdays..."

Their crying made everyone turn around to look.

Dabao laughed out loud, rubbed their little heads, went outside to bring in a canvas bag, and took out a big wooden box from it and handed it to them.

"Two crybabies, here's a birthday present."

Lu Tong and Lu Li wiped their little faces without a single tear. They held the box and placed it on the tea table.

Dabao curled his lips: "It turns out that the more beautiful a woman is, the more likely she is to lie."

The Lu Tong sisters had no time to argue with their brother. They opened the wooden box and couldn't help but scream.

The wooden box is filled with little figures, and there is also an exquisitely carved heavenly palace and temple. It is simply magnificent.

Zuo Mingyue kept the heavenly palace that was carved at the beginning, and Dabao later carved another one for Lu Tong and Lu Li.

Lu Tong and Lu Li jumped up, one on each side hanging on Dabao: "Brother, you are so awesome. This is the best birthday present we have ever received."

Dabao smiled and said, "I've been too busy lately. I've only carved out Havoc in Heaven and Guanyin Courtyard. The Three Strikes on the White Bone Demon is not finished yet. I'll give you the rest when I'm done. Your sister Mingyue helped polish these, and her hands are all worn out."

Lu Tong and Lu Li hugged Zuo Mingyue and said, "Thank you, sister-in-law."

The old man picked up the carved figurine and could not help but praise it. It was simply a work of art and he could not let it go.

Nuannuan yawned in her grandma's arms because she was sleepy. Grandma hurriedly took Nuannuan upstairs. When Nuannuan left, a group of people followed her upstairs. Lu Tong and Lu Li did not forget to take away the birthday presents before leaving.

Now only Grandpa Lu and Dabao were left in the living room. Grandpa smiled and asked Dabao to sit down. He said slowly: "Bao, your grandma and I both agree that you should adopt Nuannuan. This is how people should be. Be kind..."

Before he could finish his words, the door opened and Lu Jianbang and Bai Xiuying came in. Bai Xiuying changed her shoes and started looking around: "My eldest son, where is my granddaughter?"

Dabao pointed upstairs and Bai Xiuying rushed upstairs like the wind. Now her aunt's love was gone.

Lu Jianbang took off his hat and hung it on the hanger. As he took off his coat, he said, "What are you two talking about that makes you look so happy?"

Dabao stood up, took his coat and hung it up: "My grandpa praised me."

Lu Jianbang laughed out loud: "That's fine, I want to praise you."

Dabao poured water for Lu Jianbang: "Praise me, praise me as much as you can, I can handle it."

Mr. Lu and Lu Jianbang laughed out loud, and Lu Jianbang waved for Dabao to sit down.

"Dabao, Tang Liru did a great job on this matter. Especially in not being proud or taking credit for yourself. That's very rare. Yesterday, Secretary Peng from the Municipal Party Committee singled you out for praise, saying that you're young and promising and have a broad perspective."

Mr. Lu tapped the armrest of the sofa with a smile on his face, looking very pleased.

Lu Jianbang picked up the cigarette on the table, lit it, and took a puff.

"Dabao, I still don't understand why we can't get close to Tang Junrong? At the welcome banquet last night, Tang Junrong toasted me several times, but I pushed them to the city leaders. Is there something behind this?"

Of course Mr. Lu knew about this, and he was also watching Dabao.

Dabao pondered for a moment. He knew that some of his actions were not very careful. With the intelligence of his grandfather and uncle, they must have noticed it a long time ago. There was no need for him to hide it. It was time to have a frank talk with his grandfather and the two of them. It was only a few years away from the arrival of the big storm. In order to avoid this disaster, the Lu family should start making plans now.

Dabao thought for a moment and said, "Grandpa, uncle, given your status, I'm afraid you've already noticed that there has been an undercurrent since the Peninsular War.

In recent years, it has become common for leading cadres to abandon their wives and children and find new lovers. They start to care about food and clothing, form cliques, and fight for fame and fortune. In particular, they have nurtured a group of playboys who are harmful to society.

Even at this point, they still can't intervene or ask questions. If they ask, they will say I shed blood and was injured for the revolution. If they ask again, they will say I am a subordinate of so-and-so. They have no idea that they have betrayed their beliefs and forgotten their original intentions.

Grandpa, this is true, right?"

Mr. Lu nodded gravely. "The day before I returned to Beijing, I received marriage applications from two regimental-level cadres. They both wanted to marry women twenty years their junior. It was absolutely shameless."

"Then what should we do? Can you stop it? This is a trend that is blowing everywhere. Not only you can't stop it, but no one can stop it, so..." Dabao lowered his voice: "In a few years, there will be a nationwide storm. This storm under the guise of cultural ideology will tear most of the leading cadres to pieces. If our Lu family doesn't handle it well, we will also become victims of this storm."

Mr. Lu's expression became increasingly serious: "Is this similar to a purge?"

Dabao shook his head: "It's a hundred times bigger than those."

"What?" Lu Jianbang was shocked: "Is it so serious?"

"Uncle, it's more serious than you think. After the big storm comes, only one in ten of the current leaders will survive."

"What should we do then?" Mr. Lu couldn't help but ask.

"After the great storm hit, only two departments were least affected: the military and the public security. After all, if these two areas were in chaos, the foundation of the country would be shaken."
