"Hmm? Where is this place?"
Lin Chen looked at the wooden beam above his head in a daze and slowly sat up.
He looked around. It was a dilapidated old house.
The floor was full of potholes, and the corners were filled with boxes and messy objects. There was an eight-square table against the wall, a coal stove, and a kerosene lamp hanging above his head.
There was a red kettle beside the bed.
Suddenly, he covered his head.
Intense pain accompanied by a large number of memories surged into his mind.
After a long time, Lin Chen wiped the cold sweat off his forehead.
He had transmigrated.
He came to the world of the TV series " Love in the Courtyard " that he had watched before.
Here, he was also called Lin Chen, but he was only eight years old.
A few days ago, there was an accident at the Red Star Rolling Mill, and several people died. His parents and Qin Huiru's husband, Jia Dongxu, had unfortunately lost their lives.
In order to take care of the original owner and his young sister, the factory sent someone to the countryside to bring his grandmother to the courtyard house.
The original Lin Chen despised his grandmother for being a country bumpkin and was very resistant to it. In addition, he was very sad after losing his parents. He hid under the blanket and cried before fainting. Only then did Lin Chen transmigrate.
Lin Chen touched the brick bed under him and looked at the turquoise clothes on his body. The rough cloth finally made him feel a little real.
It was the early 1970s, or more accurately, 1962.
In the era of the planned economy, people had to buy their daily needs with tickets. Therefore, food tickets, cloth tickets, sugar tickets, match tickets, tofu tickets, meat tickets, egg tickets, coal tickets, and so on were born.
Rare items such as bicycles had to be purchased with a special bicycle purchase certificate.
It should be noted that these tickets only proved that you were qualified to buy. You still had to spend money to buy things from the supply and marketing cooperative with these tickets.
Of course, prices were low in this era.
According to the price per catty, the refined powder was 26 cents, the polished rice was 20 cents, the millet was 10 cents, the peanut oil was 69 cents, the pork was 84 cents, the beef was 70 cents, and the mutton was 76 cents…
In this era, the gap between the rich and the poor was not big, and the salary was basically based on ability.
Working in the same factory, the basic salary was the same, but if the skills were good and the rating was good, they could get processing money.
For example, the factory had announced yesterday that Qin Huairu would be replacing her husband's job. She would be an ordinary fitter in the workshop, and that would be 26.50 yuan.
Although his grandmother was nearly fifty years old, she had also taken over his father's job and started learning from scratch. She also earned 26.50 yuan a month.
Yi Zhonghai, who was also a fitter in the yard, had a grade-8 rating and could receive more than 90 points.
As a result, people were very diligent in their work, thinking of raising their salaries as soon as possible to improve their family lives.
Of course, the uniqueness of the era also created the unique scenery of this courtyard house.
It wasn't appropriate to fill the courtyard house with words.
Although Lin Chen felt that his values were a little wrong when he watched the TV series, it also reflected the weakness of human nature-selfishness.
Qin Huairu had married into the city from the countryside. Her mother-in-law, Jia Zhangshi, disliked her lowly background. Later, her husband had an accident. How could a widow afford to support her mother-in-law and three children with her 26.50 yuan salary?
If this was an ordinary person, they would probably remarry immediately. However, she had compromised and endured under Jia Zhangshi's disdainful eyes for her entire life to support her three children.
Of course, in order to make a living, a widow like her had to flirt with men and be groped in exchange for some steamed buns. As a result, Qin Huairu stared at Silly Zhu, this 'good person', and tried to ruin his blind dates time and time again.
Where was the main character in the drama, Silly Zhu?
He was a typical loyal person. He liked them and would help them even if they did something bad.
For example, Qin Huairu's son, Bang Tien, had obviously stolen a chicken, but he still went to the factory's kitchen to steal soy sauce. Later on, he was caught red-handed, but he still felt that it was a good thing that Bang Tien didn't take it all for himself. Later, when Qin Huairu asked for help, he immediately took over the matter of stealing the chicken.
If he didn't like it, he would do bad things.
For example, they encouraged children to knock on Xu Damao and Third Master Yan Bugui's door early in the morning to ask for red packets.
As for Yi Zhonghai, who was in the courtyard, he was undoubtedly a good person.
He and a middle-aged woman had never had any children in their entire lives. They had a high salary and often provided for Qin Huiru's family.
As for those who suspected that he had something going on with Qin Huairu when he delivered the gifts at night, that was too unjust!
Not to mention that he would never abandon an aunt who could not give birth, and the two of them were even stronger than gold. It was that Jia Zhang-shi who stayed in the room every day, staring at Qin Huairu. What kind of relationship could he have with Qin Huairu?
Qin Huairu's family probably felt that if they were to send it in broad daylight and were seen by others, they would not accept it out of consideration for their reputation.
Of course, he also had his own selfish motives. After all, he had no descendants. He wanted to build a good relationship with his neighbors so that he could help take care of them when he was old. Foolish people like Silly Zhu became his number one target, so he often sided with them.
Liu Haizhong, the second uncle, was an official fanatic. He dreamed of being an official all day long. He tried his best to become a leader. He imagined that he could make a fortune, but his own family was in a foul mood.
The Third Master, Yan Bugui, was interesting. As a teacher of the people, he was good at scheming. He thought of ways to earn money. He narrowed his eyes and smiled at people, but he was actually scheming in his heart.
Although these people had selfish motives, at least they were not beasts.
The only one who could be considered a beast was the biggest villain in the courtyard, the bad guy Xu Damao.
