Daily life of female supporting actresses in the 1970s

As for my mother, she always said, "Your brothers and sisters have suffered so much with us in the mountains of the southwest. You should be more considerate of them."

"Your grandparents only give you fifty yuan a month. When your father and I were in the southwest, our monthly salary was only sixty or seventy yuan, and we had to support a family of four."

……

She completely forgot that my fifty dollars was not enough to help her senior brother.

Although I receive subsidies from the elderly, I still have to support myself.

My mother's tone was as if the years I spent working in the countryside in Northeast China were not so much a job as a farm worker, but a vacation.

However, those people whom I helped out of convenience remembered my kindness for their entire lives and helped me a lot later.

There were even two elderly people who had no family left, and after they passed away, they left all their inheritance to me.

Later, I was imprisoned for suspected leaking state secrets. My family members didn't believe me, but the descendants of those people were running around for me.

Jiang Yanqiu was also introduced to me by those people. This was the first time we met after we separated from the educated youth site.

As soon as Jiang Yanqiu saw that it was me, she refused to be my attorney without saying a word.

Her expression of disbelief clearly showed that she didn't believe that Gu Qingshi and I had gotten to the point of filing a lawsuit.

I also don’t believe Jiang Yanqiu. How can someone who can’t even speak clearly be a lawyer?

You are just kidding me.

I was a little angry at the time. If you didn't want to help me, just say so. Why did you find such a lawyer for me?

So our first meeting ended like this. Apart from saying hello, we went our separate ways.

However, after Jiang Yanqiu left, the person who introduced her told me that Jiang Yanqiu was the only lawyer who could win the lawsuit against Gu Qingqing and others.

Moreover, Jiang Yanqiu doesn't take every case. She only takes the case of Gu Qingqing's family.

Even the chat software plagiarism case that caused a sensation at the time was orchestrated by Jiang Yanqiu.

My reaction at the time was that Jiang Yanqiu definitely hadn't let go of the things that happened at the educated youth camp back then, and was still keeping an eye on Gu Qingqing and the others.

Only then could we easily find evidence against Gu Qingqing and the others and win the lawsuit.

Thinking back to when we were in the countryside, Gu Qingqing and I were in the same group.

As the leader of the educated youth team, it would be fine if I didn't uphold justice.

Although he knew that Lin Xiaomei had wronged Jiang Yanqiu, he always maintained an indifferent attitude and was unwilling to even serve as a witness.

Is Jiang Yanqiu still holding a grudge against me now?

Even if she has the ability to help me win the case, would she be willing to do me this favor?

Back to when I was the leader of the educated youth poverty alleviation team, Village Chief Zhao asked me to be the leader of the educated youth team because he actually wanted me to help those educated youth who were in difficult conditions.

He was worried that those educated youth who lived in poor conditions would have no ability to make a living and would starve or freeze to death. If they were tracked down, it would be troublesome.

Let’s not talk about the fact that they embezzled the resettlement fees for the educated youth. If anything happened to the educated youth, the brigade would not be able to escape responsibility.

But I am most afraid of trouble. The money my family sends me is not enough for me to spend, so how can I have spare money to help others?

Besides, I have seen what happened to the previous educated youth team leaders, so whether it is borrowing money or working, I will not start that.

Once you start, you will be the one who gets taken advantage of.

As for going to work to help Lin Xiaomei later, it was because we ate from the same pot, and there were only four of us educated youth left at the educated youth site, and we didn't want to embarrass everyone.

As for female educated youth like Jiang Yanqiu who are introverted and have a short memory, I have always looked down on them. I think it's a shame that they can't stand up on their own.

If she doesn't ask me for help, I won't bother to meddle in her affairs.

The first time I suspected that there was something wrong with Qiao Lei and the others was when Liu Yuanda and Zhao Lanlan were sent to the farm.

It was also because of this incident that I began to feel a little disappointed with Gu Qingshi, and felt that he was no longer the same Gu Qingshi as before.

After they were both sent to the farm, we returned to the capital to visit our relatives.

I knew in my heart that these two people were specially arranged to go to the farm by Gu Qingshi through his connections.

The reason Gu Qingshi gave me at the time was that Zhao Lanlan and Liu Yuanda had conspired to frame Gu Qingqing and wanted to destroy Gu Qingqing's innocence.

I was a little confused at the time. Doesn't Liu Yuanda like Qiao Lei? Why would he plot to destroy Gu Qingqing?

However, Gu Qingshi was unwilling to say more, and I was embarrassed to ask for details.

When we returned, Liu Yuanda and his men had already been convicted and sent to the farm.

I learned the whole story from everyone, and I always felt that this matter was a bit strange.

First of all, Zhao Lanlan said that she would have dinner at Lin Xiaomei's house in the evening and would be back a little late.

Jiang Yanqiu left the door open for Zhao Lanlan and reminded Liu Yuanda to be careful and not let bad guys into the house.

This became evidence that Zhao Lanlan was harming others.

Zhao Lanlan may have some intention of plotting against Jiang Yanqiu, but it has nothing to do with Gu Qingqing's design.

Just because of this sentence, at most it is a case of knowing the truth but not reporting it, and it is not evidence of a crime at all.

But Gu Qingshi didn't care about anything and just spent money to find connections to let Zhao Lanlan take the blame for seven years. This is too much.

Secondly, I would never believe that Liu Yuanda attempted to rape Jiang Yanqiu and also tried to violate Gu Qingqing.

After spending five years with Liu Yuanda, I have some understanding of him.

Putting aside other things, this person has high demands, but he is also a pragmatic and timely person.

He won't waste time and energy unless he is sure of something.

He looks down on people who are not as good as him, but he will not offend people who are more capable than him.

It's not like he doesn't know how much Gu Qingshi cares about Gu Qingqing, and he would do anything without principles for Gu Qingqing.

The Gu family is quite powerful. If he dares to touch Gu Qingqing, Gu Qingshi will definitely take his life.

So I would never believe that he was planning to take advantage of Gu Qingqing and wanted to destroy her.

Moreover, Liu Yuanda's original target was Qiao Lei. If Jiang Yanqiu wanted to find someone to act as a shield for Liu Yuanda, it should be Qiao Lei, not Gu Qingqing.

There were doubts everywhere in this matter, and Gu Qingshi convicted Liu Yuanda without even verifying anything.

I suspect Qiao Lei about this matter because she told the whole story to Gu Qingshi over the phone, and a lot of it was made up by her.

At the time, I thought this was extremely strange, but I didn't want to get involved, so I just watched the fun.

Moreover, those two people were taken as the scapegoat and sent to a farm for reformation. This was all done by Gu Qingshi who paid someone to do it for his own benefit.

I am Gu Qingshi's good friend, so naturally I won't hold him back, let alone expose him.

I was disappointed with Gu Qingshi again because of the conflict between Gu Qingqing and his family and the captain's family.

In the Shanshui Brigade, I have a good impression of the brigade leader.

The team leader has a bad temper, speaks loudly, and has a gloomy face all day long. He looks a bit scary, and children run away when they see him.

But he has no bad intentions and is a good cadre who does his job conscientiously.

Village Chief Zhao, on the other hand, gives me the impression of a smiling tiger. He says nice things but never does anything.

Moreover, their whole family is quite snobbish. I was still a child when I first met them. After meeting them once, I felt that I disliked their family. After that, I stayed away from them every time I saw them.

So later when Gu Qingqing and the others had a falling out with the captain's family, I was actually on the captain's side in my heart.

Gu Qingqing wanted to bribe the captain, but the captain didn't promise her anything.

Later, she got a teacher position based on her own ability, and immediately turned against her.

First, he broke the team leader's bicycle, and then he reported the team leader by real name, directly bringing the team leader down.

Let’s not talk about these. These are all matters between them and the team leader. The team leader did accept Gu Qingqing’s things, so it’s not unfair.

Gu Qingqing had a conflict with the captain's family. All the things and money were returned, the captain was removed from office, and even his bicycle was destroyed by Gu Qingqing.

It can be said that the team leader lost more than he gained.

The problem lies with Gu Qingshi. No matter how big a fuss this matter gets, it shouldn't involve other people.

In order to please Gu Qingqing, Gu Qingshi actually reached out to the army and asked people to suppress the captain's son.

They were already on the list for promotion, but he simply cancelled their promotions and even made the captain's son retire the following year.

By the time I learned about this, the captain's son had already retired from the army.

At that time, my relationship with Gu Qingshi had begun to fade. He was busy taking care of Gu Qingqing and ignored me.

I also suspected Qiao Lei and the others about the missed questions in the exam. Qiao Lei didn't pay much attention to the village chief's family before.

After the news of recruiting primary school teachers came out, he became very close to Wang Lanhua.

It's so good that he has to be escorted even when he wants to eat something delicious. It would be strange if there weren't some problems here.

Whether it is Wang Lanhua, Qiao Lei or Lin Xiaomei, they are all notoriously stingy.

How could they send food to each other if there is no interest relationship?

Especially Lin Xiaomei. I don’t know what her grades were like before, but she never read books, newspapers or studied.

When we first arrived, we had to report our thoughts every day and sometimes even read newspapers.

Lin Xiaomei often only recognizes half of the characters, which has caused her a lot of jokes.

How come you suddenly love studying and become so good at it?

The third thing that made me suspicious of Qiao Lei was that one time I went to the post office to pick up a package and saw a letter from Jiang Yanqiu.

But when the letters were delivered to the educated youth point, Jiang Yanqiu did not receive any letters, and I didn't pay much attention to it at the time.

Once I saw the list of educated youth and found that Jiang Yanqiu's family background was actually a cadre family!

At that time, I was wondering in my heart that no matter how biased this cadre family was, they would not care about Jiang Yanqiu's life or death. I just had a suspicion and didn't think much about it.

It was not until Shen Shuyan stopped being a postman and came to the village to work as the secretary that Jiang Yanqiu started receiving letters.

Suddenly an idea came to my mind, and I quickly asked someone I knew at the post office to check it out.
