After Gu Can sent the package, he temporarily put aside the matter of his two brothers. After all, at the moment, there should be no suspected time travelers appearing on the eldest brother's side, and he could only wait for a reply from his second brother.

It was the end of October when Gu Can arrived, with the Lunar New Year still a month away. The three of them stayed with the Second Yujian Squadron this year, not going home. Gu Can had no home to return to, Ding Min's home was irrelevant, and Hao Aiguo, well, his grandfather wouldn't let him go back.

The southwest and northeast are really too far away. His grandfather said that he had just arrived and had to go back. It was a complete waste of time on the road!

Since the three of them are not going home, it is natural that they will celebrate the New Year together.

In this era, supplies are scarce, and people start scrambling to buy New Year's goods early.

Every week, Gu Can would go to the post office to mail packages to his two brothers. The eldest brother's was always bigger because the supplies for the elders were sent to him first. The second brother's was much smaller, but if he was full, the whole family would not be hungry. The most important thing was that he knew someone cared about him.

Every week when Gu Can goes to mail packages, Ding Min and Hao Aiguo will go with him. After Gu Can finishes mailing the packages, the three of them will go together to grab New Year's goods.

If you ask us how much New Year's goods three people need to prepare, it's definitely not that much. The reason they go every week is that the three of them have no experience and they really can't compete with those strong and experienced ladies!

The three of them went five times but returned empty-handed four times.

Fortunately, by the time of the New Year, they had managed to gather some candies and snacks. The three of them looked at their simple New Year's goods and were very happy.

Gu Xing and Gu Hua, who were thousands of miles away, were also very happy to receive Gu Can's package. Especially Gu Xing, since he was inexplicably signed up by his family as an educated youth and sent here, he seemed very gloomy and his family had not been able to contact him for several months.

The educated youth camp where Gu Xing worked was quite crowded, with several people sharing one room. His room, a mere 20 square meters, housed five people. It was hot and humid, with poor food and shelter, and no contact with his family. From a child of destiny, he had fallen to this point. He had gone from a bright and sunny young man to a depressed one in a matter of seconds.

He doesn't talk much, doesn't take advantage of others, and doesn't allow others to take advantage of him. But when he starts fighting, it's really scary. Everyone in the educated youth center is a little afraid of him.

But after receiving the first package sent by Gu Can, he suddenly felt refreshed. When he started working, the local residents of the production team thought there was a new educated youth.

After hearing the news about his family, Gu Xing really relaxed a lot. Even though he still had trouble eating and living, he was able to try his best to adapt.

As Gu Can sent a package once a week, Gu Xing naturally had to send one back as well. In particular, he sent a lot of seafood to Gu Can, all of which were dried and processed, otherwise they would not survive the weather there.

Gu Xing also used the southwestern specialties sent by Gu Can to actively build good relationships with the indigenous people, and finally succeeded in getting himself a single room before the New Year.

Gu Xing, who finally moved into a 20-square-meter single room, couldn't help but sigh in his heart that his younger sister's luck was still as good as ever.

Of course, Gu Hua also sent packages to Gu Xing, but Gu Hua had to take care of the elderly, so his movements were limited, and he himself was not wealthy, so he sent very few things to Gu Xing. However, he would send letters from time to time to keep in touch.

Gu Hua was of course very happy when she received Gu Can's letter, but when she saw so many things in the package, she immediately started to worry. Fortunately, Gu Can wrote about her life in detail in his heart, which made Gu Hua feel a little relieved. She was afraid that Gu Can was worried about his family and was reluctant to eat it all and saved it to exchange supplies for them.

As the three siblings resumed their interactions, the Gu family's life became better and better. They could hold on for ten years.

As the New Year draws to a close, every household is filled with joy. And at this moment, what Gu Can and his friends had worried about earlier actually happened.

Recently, after Gu Can and the other two got off work, they would always see strangers looking at them on their way home. This made the three of them feel uneasy, especially Ding Min, who was the most panicked.

After reporting this to the team leader, he organized the young men in the village to start patrolling. Everyone in the production team was a little nervous, and they probably wouldn't have a good New Year.

Two days later, the team leader informed them that the strangers they had spotted were actually some educated youth from the Hongsheng Brigade who had committed crimes. And there were quite a few of them.

After the meeting, the three returned to the Youth League compound, all in low spirits. An atmosphere of panic spread throughout the production brigade.

"Sister Minmin, Brother Aiguo, don't worry too much. After all, those traps we set before were not in vain. We have a lot of people in our Yujian Team 2. Even if they have this, they certainly won't dare to break in blatantly during the day. There are also patrols organized by Uncle Xingjun and others at night. They will definitely be able to discover it in time. The most important thing is." Gu Can paused, and both of them looked at her.

"If they really break in, don't care about material possessions. Nothing is more important than your life. Especially you, brother Aiguo, don't get carried away and start a fight. Even if you win, if those people insist on making you take the punishment, it will not be worth it." Gu Can looked at Hao Aiguo.

"I know, I will be careful. With me here, you two can rest assured. Although I failed to pass the military examination, I am in good health. I even learned some martial arts from my grandfather when I was a child." Although Hao Aiguo was also worried, there was Mucang after all, and it was no joke.

But seeing that both girls were scared, he, as a grown man, had to stay calm.

"Well, I know, Cancan, you are the most timid. If you are afraid, we can just squeeze together for a few days." Ding Min thought about how Gu Can was frightened to death when he saw the Red Guards criticizing those landlords. He was even more timid than her.

"How about this, my room is in the middle, Sister Minmin, let's move your bed to my room so that we can have someone to look after us. My bed is really not big and can't sleep two people." There was no way Gu Can would force himself to live in Ding Min's room, nor was there any way he would let Ding Min sleep in her bed and find anything wrong.

"That's fine, my bed isn't big anyway, let's go and lift it now." Ding Min said that she wasn't so scared because she didn't have to sleep alone. Gu Can came up with this compromise because he knew Ding Min would definitely be scared.

Seeing that it was getting dark, Hao Aiguo helped Ding Min move the bed to Gu Can's room and then returned to his own room. Ding Min quickly made the bed and after a simple wash, he went to Gu Can's room.

After lying down, Ding Min didn’t know if it was the sense of security brought by being with two people, but she felt really relaxed and fell asleep quickly.

With Ding Min in the room, Gu Can couldn't take a shower as she pleased. Fortunately, it was winter and she didn't exercise much, so she could barely accept not taking a shower for two or three days.

Three days passed like this.

On the night of the 28th day of the twelfth lunar month, a scream was heard from the Youth League compound on Guanshanpo, Yujian Second Team.
