Day 94 (1)

On February 13, 1976, on the thirteenth day of the first lunar month, Lu Li was going back again. It has become common for children to get in. He is getting older every day, and Yu Fang and his wife don’t have to see him off at the station. Even so, the couple followed him to the bus station at the entrance of the alley, watching him get in the bus, Xu Yunjian, Cao Xun, Liang Xin, and Zhang Qing get in the car, "Xiaoxiao, don’t run back this summer, have you heard? It’s so hot, just ask your uncle to buy it, ah?"

Looking at her aunt's sideburns that had begun to bloom, Lu Li remained silent, but her eyes were red deeply, "Let's go back, aunt, I'll be back in a few days."

"Oh," Yu Fang agreed, but her feet were in a row. "Xiaoxiao, don't be too tired, do you know? If you have something to do, write to your aunt, ah?"

Wu Baokun suddenly took off the watch on his wrist and handed it up, "Xiaoxiao, I'll give it to you!"

"Uncle?" This watch is an Omega card. It was used by Wu Jihou back then. At the beginning of the special period, the old man secretly hid it. In order to avoid discovering it, he dug a hole in the cellar where he was sleeping and hid it inside. He gave the watch to his son until he was dying.

"For you." Wu Baokun said quickly: "I won't need it anymore in the future."

Lu Li took the watch in a daze, and a trace of suspicion flashed in his heart: Why is my uncle talking like this? What does it mean that there is no need in the future?

The sound of the car horn sounded and drove away from the station. Luli looked through the car window as his aunt and uncle waved to him frequently in the wind. For some reason, the bitterness in his heart was really unstoppable. This year's farewell was even more sad than the first time! He secretly wiped his face and sat down.

When we arrived at the station, everyone gathered together. It was still early before the ticket check time. Everyone was talking and laughing in the square in front of the station, "Hey, let's play the cards for a while?"

As soon as he promoted Zhongnuo, Luo Yaohua took out playing cards, sat on the ground, and started playing cards. They played 100 points, commonly known as playing one, consisting of four people, each with twelve cards, and six trump cards were left at the bottom of the sea. Each person called the score according to the cards in his hand, starting from fifty-five, and each five points were one level, and until 100 points. As for the cards in his hand, the largest is the five squares (commonly known as five stars or curtains), followed by the ghosts of big and small, four J, four 2. These are eleven mobile main cards. That is to say, no matter when, these eleven cards are the main cards. The more they hold in his hand, the higher the score you can call.

In addition to the mobile main cards, there are also suit main cards, that is, according to the number of suits in your hand, choose a main card that suits you. Except for the square pieces, all main cards are twenty-two, and square pieces are twenty-one. After the call score, the person who calls the highest will grab the six trump cards at the bottom of the sea, exchange the six in his hand, and put them down again. Each person still has twelve cards in his hand. At this time, the other three people are counted as one side and fight against the only side, so it is called "play one".

As for victory or defeat, it depends on the one with a large number of people to grab the corresponding score. A deck of cards is calculated by five, ten and K. Both of them are counted as ten, and five points are counted as five points, and the total is 100 points. If a person is called sixty, the opponent will have to grab forty-five points after the game, otherwise it will be considered losing - also called bad.

This is a very brain-consuming game, and it is a bit similar to the king of the card game - Bridge. The difference is that the latter is the opponent and the other party, and this is the one who is his own party. Lu Li is at this level. As far as he knows, Li Xueqing plays the best, which is related to his long-term playing cards, and his level becomes more and more proficient as he practices. All he can do is know how to play, and he is not very proficient.

After calling out sixty, I opened the trump card and saw that there were only one J. I didn’t even have three elders (referring to the curtain and the ghosts of all sizes. These three were the biggest among the cards, hence the name), and it was so bad that it was so bad that it went to the South Heaven Gate! Lu Li grabbed his head in distress and looked up. Looking up, many people had gathered around to watch the battle. In Tianjin, it was very mass-based, and basically everyone knew it, and there were many masters among them. "I just want to be equal." One of them said.

The main players all say that the remaining main cards are evenly distributed in the hands of the other three companies. If there is a slight deviation, the only ones will be left to grab the score. He looked carefully and chose the most favorable main cards. "One less." The less one is a square piece, because the curtain is a mobile master, and he occupied one, so he was named.

"Okay..." The people watching the game couldn't speak, and Cao Xun put the card in his hand. He had eight masters including the curtain! "Haha! Xiaoxiao, don't talk about you, you can't even keep your butt!"

"Then I'll change... the master."

"What do you want to be slutty? There is no such rule!" Cao Xun naturally refused, "I have shown my cards, can you change it?"

Of course Lu Li knew that there was no such rule. She smiled and closed the cards together and started to reshuffle them. Suddenly, someone outside the group said, "Oh, they have already got on the train? No, right? Didn't they say the train at eleven o'clock? What time is it now? Looking for it?"

Luli felt familiar, so he threw down the poker and stood up, "Uncle Li?"

The people who came were Li family and Li Tiehan. "Xiao Lu, I just went to your house. Your aunt said you just left. We chased you."

"Is there something wrong?"

"Yes, we Erdanzi may have to go to your place after the New Year, so we have to ask the relatives of his third aunt's family to help you! Let me tell you now, and when Erdanzi arrives at your place, take good care of him. We, boy, will entrust you!"

"Okay." Lu Li nodded cheerfully, "Erdanzi,...it's so hard to do."

"If you have to suffer, just be hard," Li Tiehan looked like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water. "If you can, just be able to bear it, just be able to bear it. If you can't bear it, then come back. Anyway, my third aunt told me that if you stay there for a year or two, I will join the army."

"What are you going to join the army? With your virtue, you are afraid of death when you go to the battlefield!"

"Dad, why did you say that to me? Why am I afraid of a mortal ghost?"

Dad Li was too lazy to pay attention to this son who was troubled by his brain, and said to Lu Li with a smile: "Xiao Lu, I have been busy with this matter these days. I haven't asked him to pay New Year's greetings to you during the Chinese New Year. Your aunt and I bought you some gifts and bring them to the train to eat?"

"Uncle, you have to spend money on your business, so you give it back to me..."

"Hold it, hold it, it's all snacks, take it to the car." Mother Li said without saying a word, picked up the box and stuffed it into Lu Li's hand. "Xiao Lu, wait until our Erdanzi arrives there, please worry. Fortunately, you are old classmates and know the truth. If you give him to you, the couple will be relieved."

"Then, thank you."

Luo Yaohua approached from behind Lu Li, "Xiaoxiao, it's time to go in."

Luli nodded, "Uncle, aunt, then, we're leaving. I'll come to Tianjin to pick him up when I come back."

The Li family was shocked. Lu Li was so powerful among the educated youth. Seeing the expression of the educated youth who didn't know his name speaking beside him, he looked very respectful? "No, no, we ordered it on February 2nd, and we went to Tangshan that day."

"Okay, February 2nd,...I'll pick you up at the station. That's it...I'll be settled."

************************************************************************

The selection and return to the city was around 75 years ago. Mr. Deng returned to the city. One of the situations he faced was that the problem of educated youth was becoming more and more serious! As time passed, more and more educated youth like the Wu sisters had already passed. The hardships of rural conditions and the hardships of labor made these people no longer see the hope of life and began to become lazy and debauchery. The conflicts with local farmers became increasingly intensified. Fighting and fighting became commonplace. Even people were often killed on nearly 10 million square kilometers of land every day.

This situation naturally attracted the attention of the central government. After Prince Deng took charge of the work, he began to solve some problems of educated youth going to the countryside. He selected some people from the educated youth who went to the countryside to join the countryside to participate in urban production and construction, which allowed the educated youth to see the dawn of returning to the city and slightly eased the contradiction between some educated youth going to the countryside. After that, the selection and return to the city became the only hope of countless educated youth.

But how to squeeze out others, it is also extremely difficult to cross this only single-plank bridge by yourself. Of course, the village party secretary is the village party secretary who holds the power of "life and death". Therefore, various ways have begun to emerge, and there is no need to mention all the ugliness. Taking the female educated youth as an example, no matter whether she is married or not, no matter how beautiful she is, and no matter how she looks down on those old farmers who are full of yellow teeth and have a stinking mouth, as long as the branch secretary waves, they have to sleep well!

The male educated youth has no such advantage, so they have to rely on material things. Giving "The Selected Choice" is no longer valuable, so they have to think of other ideas: if you give a quilt shirt, I will give a new set of quilts inside and outside; once they get twenty yuan, I will give a watch.

But all the above can only let the branch secretary know your name, but it cannot be calculated. You have to do all kinds of farm work, and you have to take on all kinds of things that you shouldn't do. When the branch secretary is satisfied, you have entered the list of people recommended by the commune. Whether it is possible depends on whether there are more ways to go through the back door, and the political review results from the city working group. If there are any accidents in the second half of this, you deserve it!

Although there are many difficulties and humiliation everywhere, this is the only way after all. The educated youth can only choose to accept it. Now they have to endure some grievances. The best way to go back to the city is the best and the most priority. Because of this mentality, the two make a hit and goodbye. Fortunately, due to the times, they will not be greedy and insufficient, and on the other hand, they will not complain because the other party does not work hard afterwards. This is what each person needs in a special era.

The same is true for the merchant Lin. Since this trend hit this small village in the Hebei Plain, Shang Anti-Japanese has never had a rest day. People come to the door to give gifts every day, and people come to cry about the difficulties at home every day. The listeners are really sad, and those who hear them cry! According to the description of the educated youth, not allowing him (her) to go back is simply a pity for the party, the country, and socialism!

In order to return to the city, the educated youths all used strange tricks. The female educated youth had a look of nothing. "As long as I was asked to be on the list of recommendations, you can do whatever you want! Even if it didn't work in the end, I will never blame you! If you don't believe it, I will give you a document now." The male educated youth had another expression, and he actually came to the door with a knife, saying, "If you don't let me go on the list, I will die with you now!"

Poor Shang Anti-Japanese struggled these people with trouble! In the first month of the year, if someone died, how depressed would be this year? He had to send the other party away with kind words and wait until the New Year was over. At this time, he missed Lu Li twice as much. This little guy is famous for his brain and has many minds. How good would it be to have him give advice by his side?

When my son heard that Luli and the others were back, he immediately found him.
