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

Feng Qingxue, unaware of the circumstances, asked, "Everyone else’s property was nationalized, how did she keep hers?"

The old woman replied, "Well, she married the man Mao Hongbing, who is in charge of the raids and confiscations. He works at the revolutionary committee on our street, and he’s quite formidable; who wouldn’t fear him? The Deng Family fell into such a state, Deng Hongling and Deng Wu frequently faced hardships, and Mao Hongbing contributed quite a bit to their troubles, while keeping Zhang Rong well-fed with rice and flour."

Feng Qingxue smiled slightly, keeping it in mind, then feigned ignorance, "They are so capable, eating so well; there must be many people giving them gifts, they wouldn’t be lacking our family’s stuff."

"But Zhang Rong likes to dress up. If there’s some rare fabric, she’d surely be willing to trade old items for it." The old woman glanced at her.

No matter how rustic she dressed, her delicate and tender skin couldn’t fool anyone—fairer and smoother than Zhang Rong’s carefully maintained complexion; she wouldn’t resemble a country girl. She’s likely disguised like those who secretly roam the streets collecting old items with fabricated stories.

The old woman said no more, tottering home on her small feet, and as she passed Zhang Rong’s door, she secretly spat.

Ungrateful, heartless people needn’t fear being scorned.

Feng Qingxue found a place to change her hat and scarf, draped in a military coat with a bamboo basket on her back, she arrived at Deng Hongling’s residence; Deng Wu had already awakened, lying on the bed, blinking his bright black eyes while Deng Hongling tidied up things on the table.

"Doctor, you’ve come!" Deng Hongling took the bamboo basket Feng Qingxue put down.

Just as Feng Qingxue was about to speak, she suddenly exclaimed, the white flour in the small bamboo basket on the table was not the one that old woman exchanged from her? She had clearly seen the patches on the small bamboo basket, how did it end up in Deng Hongling’s house?

Deng Hongling noticed her gaze and quickly said, "My brother’s nurse sent it; she often sneakily gives us food."
