Daily life of female supporting actresses in the 1970s

After returning to the educated youth site, Gu Qingqing, Qiao Lei and others suggested treating everyone to a meal.

To celebrate their escape from the swamp and their new life, and also to thank everyone for saving their lives.

No one had any objections. Today, they truly felt the coming of death.

The male educated youth also took out the two dead wild ducks as a snack, and raised the living ones to eat in the autumn harvest or to exchange for money.

Gu Qingqing took a piece of bacon weighing three or four pounds.

Tian Mi and Lin Xiaomei used the duck eggs they picked up today to cook, and Tian Cheng also took two cans of beef.

Lin Xiaomei didn't have anything good, so she just picked vegetables from their vegetable garden.

The staple food is rice provided by Qiao Lei.

Of course, Qiao Lei is still the head chef, and the others just help out.

After the meal, Gu Qingqing and Qiao Lei expressed their gratitude to everyone one after another. These two people are really good at talking.

Tian Mi and Lin Xiaomei also said a few words a little embarrassedly.

In addition to thanking everyone, they also thanked Lin Shaoyang individually, as everything today depended on his command.

If it weren't for him, Gu Qingshi would have run to pull Gu Qingqing at all costs, but he would have been asking for death.

Everyone mentioned Lin Shaoyang, and he stood up and said, "I'd like to say a few words too. I'm not the oldest among us, but Da Ge and I came here the earliest. The village asked me to be the leader of the educated youth team. Although I don't have much ability, I have to shoulder this responsibility. It's not easy for us to come to the countryside to work in the fields, and it's not easy for the villagers either. I'll try not to conflict with them in the future."

If you have any difficulties, please speak up. We can work together to find a solution, just like we did today. Don't carry it all on your own. If you have any dissatisfaction with others, please discuss it with them. Don't let it become resentment."

Lin Shaoyang didn't dare to say too much, for fear of affecting everyone's mood for eating.

But everyone was very smart and applauded without saying anything.

I am afraid that some people will take this seriously. In their opinion, their conditions are better than others and they don’t need help from others. It is their job to help others.

No one wants to be the sucker!

If Lin Shaoyang knew what everyone was thinking, he would definitely say: I just want you to stop quarreling over trivial matters. If I try to mediate, you say I am trying to please everyone, and if I don't, you say I am irresponsible.

It's not right to try to stop the fight, nor is it right not to try to stop the fight. It's really too difficult!

The atmosphere at dinner was quite harmonious, and everyone was happy to have meat to eat.

I originally thought that no one except the educated youth knew what happened yesterday, and no one would tell anyone.

As a result, they were assigned to help harvest wheat in the wheat field the next day.

It’s time to pay the public grain tax, and the tax must be collected cleanly, so there is a lot of work to do in the threshing floor.

When it was time to divide the work, the team leader called them aside and asked directly without beating around the bush: "How was your harvest in the meadow yesterday?"

When everyone heard this, their hearts skipped a beat. Damn it! How did the captain know this?

Captain: I'm here to keep an eye on you.

Lin Shaoyang said with a guilty conscience: "What can I gain? I just shot two wild ducks and picked up some wild duck eggs."

The captain asked sternly, "We fell into the swamp, and this is all we got? Didn't we catch any big birds?"

Lin Shaoyang continued to play dumb and said, "Falling into the swamp? Who said that? Did they make a mistake? We don't dare to go deep into the swamp. How could we possibly fall into the swamp?"

Although he pretended to be very convincing, he was clearly lacking in confidence.

The captain gnashed his teeth in anger and shouted in a low voice, "Lin Shaoyang, you're still pretending to be me! I saw with my own eyes several of you coming out of the reed marsh covered in mud, and you were so happy taking pictures there."

Lin Shaoyang immediately lowered his head and dared not say a word.

The team leader continued, "Lin Shaoyang, we gave all the educated youth to you because we thought you were steady and reliable, but you actually took everyone to the meadow.

Don't you know how many lives have been lost there over the years? Even professional hunters don't dare to venture in, yet you dare to go in?

If those big birds were so easy to catch, why wouldn't we catch them? Don't we want to eat meat? Don't we want to make more money? Are we stupid?

Or are the four or five hundred people in our village still no match for the skills of you, the educated youth? Do you think you can catch a big bird? You're just going to get killed.

You were lucky nothing happened yesterday. If something had happened, how would we explain it to your parents and the government? They sent the child here safely, and in the end, the child's body was gone. How would we face them..."

Everyone lowered their heads and kept silent, allowing the team leader to scold them. He was doing it for their own good.

And it seems that the villagers don’t know about it yet.

The team leader would not dare to send the villagers to the educated youth if he knew that the educated youth had made a great harvest yesterday and was able to successfully climb out after falling into the swamp.

I'm afraid everyone will have to take a day off today and rush to the reed marsh to look for wild duck eggs and hunt wild ducks.

The final result was that from then on, unless it was a collective holiday, female educated youth had to earn at least four work points a day, and male educated youth had to earn at least six work points.

Moreover, you are not allowed to take leave unless it is an important matter. If you want to take sick leave, you must have a sick leave note issued by Li Jinlai.

The previous rule that educated youth would be treated as long as they did not owe the brigade work points has now been abolished.

In fact, the team leader did this because Gu Qingqing, Qiao Lei, Song Jianshe, Lin Xiaomei and the Tian sisters had all taken leave and were not at work in the past few days.

Fearing that something might happen, he deliberately went to the educated youth site to observe for two days. Except for the Tian sisters, the other educated youth ran into the mountains one or two at a time, and did not travel in groups. They all acted alone.

It would be fine if he stayed at the educated youth camp after taking leave, but if he ran off to the mountains or meadows alone, what would happen if something happened? Who would bear the responsibility?

If this continues, all the educated youth will have to take leave and not go to work.

Even if he hadn't seen the educated youth running to the meadow in the middle of the reed marsh yesterday, he would have had to find an excuse to get them to go to work every day.

Yesterday, he also saw the educated youth carrying buckets and basins out in a group, and he followed them out of curiosity.

I saw a group of educated youth just taking pictures around the reed marsh and ignored them, going to the mountains to chop firewood.

When he came back, he didn't see any sign of the educated youth, so he was about to go in to look for them. Just as he put down the firewood, he saw a group of people coming out, and some of them were covered in mud. What does this mean?

He wanted to criticize them at that time, but when he saw some villagers coming from a distance, he went over to stop them to prevent them from making a noise and letting everyone know.

Although everyone felt a little regretful, no one dared to say anything.

The captain's requirements are pretty good. It's a lot easier than working a whole day before.

After being taught a lesson, the male educated youth was assigned to do other things.

The female educated youth were responsible for picking up clods of dirt, stones, sand, debris, rotten wheat grains, etc. from the wheat.

This threshing floor is not made of cement, but compacted mud. No matter how you clean the threshing floor, there will always be lumps of earth, stones, sand and other debris in the wheat grains.

If it is not cleaned properly, people will not accept it when you pay your tax, and you will have to take it back and clean it again.

If you are rated one grade lower because of this small problem, you will suffer a huge loss.

Now, the payment of public grain is subject to a grade. The higher the grade, the less public grain you have to pay, and the lower the grade, the more public grain you have to pay.

The team leader is not willing to pay more public grain, and he is very strict about quality.

The wheat that had to be paid as public tax had to be dried over and over again. The person in front carefully sifted it with a sieve, while the person behind was responsible for picking out impurities and bad grains.

When it was time to pay the grain tax, they had to spread mats on the ground and let the wheat dry well. They would only pack it after making sure there were no problems.

The job of picking up impurities was so boring that everyone was so sleepy that they kept dozing off.

The team leader would come over from time to time to remind everyone to pick up the trash more cleanly. He had a loud voice and sometimes scared the hell out of us.
