Daily life of female supporting actresses in the 1970s

Lin Shaoyang looked calm, but Liu Yuanda was shocked. Gu Qingqing was really a strange person!

He couldn't help but sigh: "When we met ginseng before, she accidentally fell into the ditch. We went to see her situation. Shaoyang saw the ginseng then, and now it's because of her."

Tian Mi also sighed: "That's why I said that she is more reliable than Jiang Yanqiu."

Qi Bing said enviously, "Every place has its own advantages and disadvantages. You can even find ginseng, but we can't even find codonopsis."

Tian Mi couldn't help but complain, "We went to the mountains to look for food, and we found these while chopping firewood. They were all very old and worthless. If you were as leisurely as you guys, who would want to go up the mountain? You chop firewood every day, and there's not enough firewood every day. Sometimes you're unlucky and fall, and you get hurt all over. I used to be so delicate when I went to the countryside, but look at my hands now, I'm embarrassed to even stretch them out."

Tian Mi's hands were indeed in a terrible state. She worked too hard and didn't know how to take good care of them, so she got frostbite.

Qi Bing was speechless now. It was really not easy for female educated youth to live in the countryside. If there were any other way, who would be willing to work so hard?

Tian Mi continued, "You don't know, we almost lost our lives in the swamp. The mud was almost up to my neck. A big brown bear ran into our educated youth camp and attacked people. The vegetables we worked hard to grow for a year were all destroyed by the bear."

Lin Shaoyang said in surprise: "A brown bear or a black bear? It's unlikely that a brown bear would run to the educated youth camp!"

Tian Mi replied directly: "If you don't believe me, go ask your good brother. Didn't he tell you? He was almost sent to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures by a palm strike from a brown bear."

Lin Shaoyang shook his head. Nine out of ten things in the letters Gu Qingshi wrote to him were related to Gu Qingqing. Later, he was too lazy to read them.

Tian Mi then recounted the story of the brown bear's visit to the educated youth center, adding, "Only Jiang Yanqiu was stupid. Fellow girls, Zhou Qianru and Qiao Lei, were hiding in their rooms, daring not to come out. If you hadn't been lucky enough to hit the bear in the gut, you'd be the next one to have your door torn down by it."

Jiang Yanqiu explained with a smile, "I have a back door. As long as we get into the yard, we'll have time to escape. At most, the door will be broken down by the bear. Zhao Lanlan was our friend who went hunting for mountain products together. If anything happened to her, we would feel bad for the rest of our lives."

Liu Yuanda smiled and said, "Zhao Lanlan is so timid, I'm afraid she must have been very scared."

Jiang Yanqiu also laughed and said, "It's not bad. After we closed the door, you still have the energy to move the millstone with me to smash the bear."

After hearing this, Lin Shaoyang sighed and said, "She has changed so much! With her timid personality before, she would have run away long ago. But she actually had the courage to run into the backyard to warn people. If you hadn't told me, I really wouldn't have noticed."

Then Lin Shaoyang asked Gu Qingshi several more times about what happened when the bear slapped him. He knew very well that Gu Qingshi must have done it on purpose, otherwise, with Gu Qingshi's skills, he would have been able to avoid it by running to an open place.

But none of this has anything to do with him.

Qi Bing was stunned by what he heard and couldn't help but sigh, "This is truly a dangerous place, full of opportunities but also many dangers. I saw Jiang Yanqiu's thermos and enamel pots online with the "heroic deeds" logo, and I thought she was showing off. I didn't expect it to be so difficult."

Tian Mi added with a smile: "She carried that thermos from the imperial capital and now she's carrying it back."

Qi Bing said, "You must take away anything meaningful. People will look at you more along the way and give you more respect."

Then Tian Mi told them about the various dangers they encountered. Only Chu Tingnan was absent-minded, while everyone else listened with great interest.

When Qi Bing heard about how Xu Yuefei and Qiao Liang had been in danger many times, and why Tian Mi had fallen into the swamp, he almost blurted out "It's all his own fault".

Lin Shaoyang smiled and said, "Xu Yuefei is the troublemaker who came to our brigade because no one wanted him. When he first came, our neighbors kept losing things. It was his fault. I warned him many times, but it was no use."

Tian Mi looked incredulous!

After dinner, several people helped Lin Shaoyang and the others pack up, and then came to Jiang Yanqiu to help find the Earth Fire Dragon Mouth.

After the test was passed, Lin Shaoyang said, "Your place is like the Korean kang (kang) with fire ducts in both rooms and underground. It's just that it consumes a lot of firewood. I'll buy you some coal later so you don't have to keep adding firewood."

Jiang Yanqiu waved her hand quickly: "No, no, I'm rarely at home after work, so there's no need to bother. Besides, spring is coming soon, so there's no need."

As for coming back at night, will you still feel cold in bed?

Lin Shaoyang thought for a moment and said, "Alright, let's wait until winter to buy it."

Tian Mi's eyes lit up as she stared at another empty house and asked, "This house is empty, do you want to rent it out?"

Jiang Yanqiu explained, "It contains the dowry furniture that the owner's mother prepared for her. It probably won't be rented out."

Tian Mi was a little disappointed: "Okay."

It was dark, and after everyone had left, Chu Tingnan finally picked up the piece of wood and whispered, "I'll give it back to you in a few days."

Tian Mi stayed at Jiang Yanqiu's place to read a book. She had just tried the Earth Fire Dragon and the room was warm.

Seeing that the wardrobe was dry, Jiang Yanqiu began to sort out the clothes. When she picked up the sweater Yun Yinian had knitted for her, a stack of "Great Unity" fell out.

When Yun Yinian came that night, she was packing clothes. Yun Yinian put the sweater directly into the box, and Jiang Yanqiu didn't notice it.

I guess it’s not convenient to give it to them in front of Jiang Zhenzhu and the others, so he just stuffed it in without worrying about losing it.

Jiang Yanqiu counted and found there were eight hundred in total. Was this the money for her to buy a job?

Early the next morning, Jiang Yanqiu went to the Chinese medicine clinic.

Mr. Wang arranged a job for her after examining her study progress over the past month.

Every morning she followed Dr. Wang to learn how to see patients and also helped out.

In the afternoon, she stayed in the backyard and followed a senior brother to learn how to prepare and identify medicinal herbs.

Only then did Jiang Yanqiu realize that Mr. Wang had to go to the hospital to see patients every afternoon.

The staff here are all quite old and don't talk much.

If you ask them about work, they will answer you, and if you don't make any mistakes, they won't bother you.

Although the work is busy, there is no tit-for-tat between competitors, or anyone deliberately suppressing others. Overall, the working atmosphere is quite good.

Jiang Yanqiu follows Mr. Wang's rhythm and can rest every Sunday.

Tian Mi also had Sunday off, but her work was very easy. During work, she even ran over to see how Jiang Yanqiu was doing and whether she was being bullied. It was really infuriating and funny.

Lin Shaoyang's machinery factory is a bit far away, about four or five kilometers away. He leaves home early in the morning and comes back late at night, so there is almost no chance of meeting him.

Jiang Yanqiu curiously asked Chen Tao why they lived so far away instead of in the factory.

Chen Tao explained that they were arranged to live in a dormitory in a tube-shaped building, where even a fart could be heard by the neighbors next door, and the two of them definitely didn't want to live there.

It’s hard to find a house nearby, so I can only rent here.
