Rebirth in 1980, the rise of the golden age

Although Zhuang Moxue once abandoned Chu Xinyan, the dead are gone after all.

Li Youcai called some people and even invited a fortune teller to repair Zhuang Moxue's grave. He also made a new tombstone in the name of Chu Xinyan.

Chu Xinyan came to her biological mother's grave, feeling mixed emotions and crying silently.

The Yin-Yang master was holding a compass and calculating the time in a serious manner.

"Boss, it's almost time to start the construction."

"Let's get started." Li Youcai nodded slightly, indicating that the Yin-Yang master could begin.

While offering tributes and scattering paper money, the Yin-Yang master muttered to himself.

Li Youjie and Dazhuang distributed labor protection gloves to the many brothers at the scene one by one, and symbolically stuffed 10 yuan into each pair of gloves.

After the Yin-Yang master finished muttering, he scattered wine all around.

"The filial daughter should burn money for the ancestors."

Li Youcai took out the paper money and matches that he had prepared long ago, and lit the paper money together with Chu Xinyan.

The Yin-Yang Master began to direct everyone again: "Everyone, come and clear these weeds."

The brothers each took a shovel and a sickle and began to remove the weeds around the cemetery one by one, but they did not remove the roots.

After the paper money was burned, under the guidance of the gentleman, Chu Xinyan took the lead in adding a handful of new soil to the grave mound. Then everyone filled the soil together, and piled the grave mound, which was originally less than half a meter high, into a normal grave mound again.

A stack of paper money was placed on top.

A newly built tombstone was also erected in front of Zhuang Moxue's grave.

The two old tombs have been completely renovated, with incense burning and paper money scattered all over the ground.

A few days later, Old Man Ma brought a woman in her forties to the farmers' market again and met Li Youcai.

The woman claimed to be one of Zhuang Moxue's good friends back then.

In the reception room of the market, Li Youcai looked at this very ordinary woman, and she was also looking at him.

"Are you really Zhuang Moxue's child?"

"Tell me everything you know, and the money is yours." Li Youcai used his superpowers again, took out 50 yuan and put it on the coffee table.

"Zhuang Moxue's boyfriend was called Bian Jie. He was a very handsome man and the head of the propaganda department of the Corps. At that time, many girls secretly liked him, and Zhuang Moxue also liked him. Not many people knew about their relationship. Bian Jie was not only good-looking, but also very good at coaxing people. He bought Xiaoxue a yellow skirt, and Xiaoxue couldn't wait to wear it every day."

"Later, Xiaoxue became pregnant and wanted to marry Bian Jie. It just so happened that Bian Jie was about to be promoted, so he didn't agree because he was afraid that marriage would affect his promotion."

"A few months later, Xiaoxue's belly grew bigger and bigger, and Bian Jie's transfer order came down. Xiaoxue ran after the train with her belly bulging, and she fell. I heard that it was the same corps officers who were escorting Bian Jie that took her to the hospital. When Xiaoxue returned from the hospital, the baby was gone. Two days later, Xiaoxue hanged herself."

"That's all I know." The woman told all she knew.

Li Youcai listened silently and got a complete name, Bian Jie.

So now, the whole thing about Zhuang Moxue fits together.

After his father passed away, Zhuang Moxue was transferred to work at the forest farm headquarters. She met Bian Jie, who was the propaganda chief of the military corps, and fell in love with him. In order to get promoted, Bian Jie rejected Zhuang Moxue, who was pregnant, and ran away by train.

Zhuang Moxue fell while chasing a train and was sent to the hospital by the Corps. She met Qiao Fei in the hospital. In order to protect Bian Jie, those Corps members lied that they were from Qingshan Commune. Zhuang Moxue was traumatized and had already intended to die when she gave birth to Chu Xinyan, so she abandoned Chu Xinyan in the hospital. She returned to her old house, tore the skirt Bian Jie gave her into pieces, made it into a rope, and hanged herself.

Unexpectedly, Xinyan's biological mother's fate was so tragic.

Bah, scumbag!

Li Youcai handed the money on the coffee table to the woman: "Thank you for telling me, this money is yours now."

"Hey, actually I didn't come here for the money. Uncle Ma said that you are Xiaoxue's descendants, so I came here. Are you really the son of Xiaoxue and Bian Jie?" The woman was too embarrassed to take the money, but looked at Li Youcai curiously and asked.

"I am her son-in-law."

Son-in-law? Xiaoxue actually gave birth to a child back then!

The woman looked at Li Youcai in disbelief, sighing in her heart that life is so unpredictable.

"Take it." Li Youcai stuffed the money into the woman's hand.

"I don't feel comfortable with this." Although she said this, the woman was still happy about getting the money.

After sending Old Man Ma and the woman away, Li Youcai sat in the reception room, smoked a cigarette, and felt sorry for his mother-in-law whom he had never met.

At the entrance of Taihe National Highway, three 212 jeeps were parked on the roadside. On one side stood a number of city officials wearing Zhongshan suits and with pens stuck in their chests, all waiting quietly.

At the end of the road, a black Hongqi sedan drove over, followed by a 212 jeep.

When everyone saw the car, they all put on happy faces again.

In this era, the Hongqi sedan is definitely a symbol of status and identity. Only a few units are produced throughout the year, and it is only supplied to cadres at the provincial and ministerial levels and above. Not to mention the people who sit in this car, even the people who drive this car wearing white gloves are unattainable in the eyes of ordinary people.

"I'm coming!"

"This is Minister Zhang's special car from the Organization Department. Could it be that Minister Zhang came here personally to deliver it?"

"That's for sure. I've heard for a long time that this parachuted-in municipal party secretary has a strong background, and now it seems to be true."

Before these people could say a few more words, the black Hongqi car had already driven up and slowly stopped in front of the crowd.

The cadres who had been so proud of their status, all rushed to the front of the vehicle like workers asking for food.

The car door clicked open, and a leg wearing calfskin shoes and trousers stepped out first.

Soon, a majestic and spirited middle-aged man got out of the car and appeared in front of everyone.

The man looked to be in his fifties, dressed in a well-ironed suit with a party badge pinned to his chest. He had a standard oval face with sharp features, especially his eyes, which were so bright and lively that one couldn't bear to look directly at them.

The other car door opened and Minister Zhang from the Provincial Party Committee Organization Department got out.

"Welcome to our city to guide our work. We are looking forward to your visit every day."

"lead···"

When everyone saw Minister Zhang, they all wanted to stick their faces against him.

"You are quite well-informed."

Minister Zhang chuckled and said, "Since everyone is here, let me introduce you. This is Comrade Bian Jie. Following the decision of the higher-ups, Comrade Bian Jie has been officially appointed as the Secretary of the Taihe Municipal Party Committee."
