Back to the 60s: The Struggle Career of a Charmed Wife

In her golden years, Feng Qingyun was just beginning to bloom.

Her skin was fair, her face was beautiful, and her figure was tall and slender, yet there was still a hint of childishness in her large eyes. Who could imagine that, seven years ago, she looked like a malnourished child of two or three, even though she was already five?

Feng Qingxue touched her sister’s thick, black hair, eyes filled with satisfaction, "You’re not going to school anymore, are you?"

Everyone is at home.

When she returned to the Wanglou Brigade, she saw many children who should have been in school, but were working instead.

"School has been out for a while now. We’re all working at home." Feng Qingyun leaned her head on her sister’s shoulder, pretending not to notice the hint of jealousy in her brother-in-law’s eyes, "Some students from the city wanted to take a few teachers from our school away, but our uncle stepped in and stopped them. However, we can’t attend classes anymore. Those teachers have to join us in labor; we earn work points, and they undergo labor reform. Many of our Brigade’s older boys and girls wanted to go out and see the world, but after our uncle gathered their parents and beat them all, he said they couldn’t add to the country’s burden of food and shelter, so they gave up the idea. While students from our Brigade haven’t left, a lot of students from other Brigades who attended school in our Brigade have gone to the Capital."

Feng Qingxue sighed in her heart and said gently, "Let’s not go, oh, Xiaoyun, don’t think about going out. What can a group of children do out there? Earn a few more work points at home and get a bit more grain at the end of the year."

"That’s what Uncle said too. In recent months, he’s arranged a lot of work for them, and they’re all exhausted."

Feng Qingyun seemed to take pleasure in their misfortune; although she didn’t understand what was happening outside, she knew it wasn’t good for the family, so she was very obedient and never listened to older students who tried to stir things up.
