The host of the quick travel is lacking in virtue for eight generations

Chapter 821 60 Yaozu Sister Control Group 58

The couple both got into the same university in the provincial capital, so they don't have to worry about any conflicts arising from living apart in the future.

Qin Yuanfeng planned to return to his parents' home after graduating from university, while Li Guangyuan wished to stay by his parents' side and take good care of them.

As for Huandi's death calamity, it was resolved for her long ago after Jiaduobao made contact with the Heavenly Dao. Once she and Qin Yuanfeng used their magic power, they no longer had so many concerns.

In the past few years, they have returned to Qing City a few times, usually during the summer and autumn. The main reason is that it is too cold here in winter and the roads are often closed. It is also cold in Qing City, and it is a hardship to sit on the train.

Although the train has heating, the windows can be opened and there are many stops, so it's not warm at all and there's a strong smell.

……

Another point is that Fang Xiangdong and his wife and children have not returned to Baijiatun for years. According to Shu Xiaodi, it's because his wife has been busy having and raising children and simply doesn't have time to come back.

During that time, Fang Xiangdong's mother went to the military base several times to help take care of him during his postpartum period and the baby.

After his wife became pregnant, it was as if a switch had been flipped; she gave birth one after another, basically one every year. Over the past ten years, she has had five children, plus the two adopted ones, making a total of seven children. You can imagine how difficult it would be for her to go back to her hometown.

What's most interesting is that all five of their own children were sons, while the two they adopted were daughters, which is quite rare.

When Xiao Yun learned this, he was worried for them. Five sons, five construction banks.

When they grow up, it will be just the time when they need a car, a house, and a dowry to get married. Just thinking about it makes me feel like there's no end in sight.

If it weren't for the original owner's wish, Xiao Yun would have thought that if she could just have one child, she wouldn't even dare to imagine how happy and joyful her later years would have been if she only had one child.

Fortunately, she was pregnant at the time, so she didn't have to be born during the strictest period of the one-child policy. The suggestion had already been made in 1973, but it was not implemented. The strictest period was in the late 1970s and early 1980s. She gave birth just before that, which saved her from affecting Hu Xuan.

Actually, she had considered having Hu Xuan retire if there was any negative impact, and then go into business after the reform and opening up. With their combined abilities, becoming a nouveau riche, if not the richest person in the world, would definitely be no problem.

However, Hu Xuan quite liked officialdom, as if he had found his comfort zone. If Xiao Yun hadn't been unwilling to leave, he might have been promoted to the city or province by now.

Things will be better now; he can finally act freely. He couldn't leave before because the Xiao family wasn't settled, and more importantly, it was due to the times; going anywhere was inconvenient, and it wasn't much different from here.

Zheng Pandi's leading lady aura is gone now; she's just another ordinary person, and the plot has been completely messed up.

The following spring, Jiabao and his wife, as well as Qin Yuanfeng and his wife, all set off. Jiabao and Jiang Lu went to the provincial capital of their home province, while Qin Yuanfeng and Huandi took their children to the provincial capital of Hubei Province, which was not far from the city where the Li family lived. They could send the younger children back to their grandparents to take care of them, while the older children stayed with them to attend school.

Xiao Yun's side, on the other hand, is proceeding as usual without any changes. Sui Xin is in the fourth grade of elementary school, and the school is only a hundred meters away, so there is no need to pick her up or drop her off.

Originally, the meals at home were prepared by Hu Xuan when he came back. But since the children started school, Xiao Yun has had the robot in her space prepare them and then put them on the table before Sui Xin comes back. On weekends, she would also prepare extra meals the day before and put them in the refrigerator.

She deliberately set the housekeeping robot to replicate the taste of the food Hu Xuan made, so Sui Xin always thought that her father had come back early to cook it.

As the weather got hotter, Xiao Yun's belly grew bigger day by day. Xiao's mother was worried and came to take care of her. Her grandchildren were being cared for by Xiao's grandmother and the others.

Xiao Yun didn't actually want her mother to come; she felt more comfortable on her own. However, she was pregnant with twins this time, and her due date would be earlier than expected. Her family wouldn't feel at ease if her mother didn't come.

She had already used her divine sense to check and confirmed that it was a boy and a girl, which put her at ease. Otherwise, she would have to keep having more children, and she didn't want to be a "birth control guerrilla."

"The child used to be so clean, but now he looks like a mud monkey, his face is all chapped, it's pitiful..." Xiao's mother said with a sigh as she sat on the sofa with Xiao Yun, eating sunflower seeds.

They were watching TV, but since it was Tuesday and there were no programs running at 2 PM, they decided to sit on the sofa and chat.

Now we're talking about the child left behind by two educated youth. This child was born after the two educated youth got married. When the college entrance examination was reinstated, they both took the exam and passed. However, they each returned to their hometowns, leaving their child in the production brigade.

Previously, there were three situations for the educated youth in the brigade. One was that they married or married people from the village. The female educated youth would go to their husband's family, while the male educated youth would either rent or buy a house. In any case, they would all move out of the educated youth settlement.

The second type is those who remain single, either by their own choice or by listening to their families, resolutely refusing to find a partner while in the countryside. Some, having connections, returned home, some retired due to illness, some took over jobs from their families, while others persevered until the very end, waiting until the college entrance examination.

The third type is where two educated youths simply live together without developing feelings for each other over time. They are simply reaching a certain age and can no longer endure being alone, so they have no choice but to find someone to accompany them.

These people look down on rural people, believing they are not good enough for them, and since they lack the ability to return to the city, this is the best option for them.

But once they are able to return to the city, they will no longer stay together to continue the marriage. They are eager to get rid of each other and the children they have with each other, believing that this is a dark history of helplessness in their lives that they do not want to look back on, just like the parents they are talking about now.

Of course, some people have a conscience, or rather, they can't bear to part with their children, so they will take the children with them after the divorce. But most people simply leave their children with the production brigade in the countryside.

It's still good that it's under collective ownership now. The production brigade can help support them. Older children can work in the fields to earn work points, while younger ones can easily find someone to take care of them. Anyway, with per capita grain, they won't starve.

But after the household responsibility system was implemented, the fate of the older children became a problem. They didn't have local household registration and couldn't be allocated land, but they still needed to stay in the countryside. We couldn't just watch them starve to death.

If we send them back to their parents, neither of them wants them. So who should we send them to? Besides, who will send them? The round-trip expenses are a huge burden, and nobody wants to do such a thankless task.

The Baijiatun brigade was alright because few educated youth came and many left, and very few were left who couldn't leave, and even fewer got married.

There are only two couples like this, where two educated youths live together. One of them came later and didn't get married until last year. They haven't had children yet.

The other couple came a little later than Li Guangyuan's group. They persisted for four or five years before getting married, and their child is already seven or eight years old, and it's a boy.

If it were a girl, it would be easier to find her a husband. After raising her for a few more years, she could get married and help with household chores.

As for boys, they are not good at working in the fields at this age, and they are not as careful as girls when doing housework. They are already sensible and difficult to raise.

Those who cannot have children and need to establish a family line will find someone who is too young to remember things and raise them from childhood to adulthood. If no one says anything, everyone will think they are their own children. Even when they grow up and others say so, they will have developed feelings for each other.

So the child is currently homeless and lives in a room vacated by the educated youth settlement. His parents have already returned the house they previously rented.

The brigade treated him fairly well, giving him some of the things left behind by the educated youth, as well as some food. Otherwise, with the few work points he earned, even with a per capita ration, he wouldn't have lasted long before going hungry.

There are still other educated youth in the settlement. Not all of them passed the college entrance exam; several failed and had to stay in Baijiatun to try again next year.

So there's no need to worry about the child's safety. However, with the implementation of the policy allowing children to return to the city, even those who don't pass the exam will gradually return, so other arrangements will have to be made for this child.

But that wasn't their business. Xiao Yun just sighed twice along with her stepmother and moved on, then started talking about other gossip.

"Lin Jie from our brigade is at the forest farm, right? I heard the deputy director there was killed, and it was a really gruesome death."

Xiao Yun, who had been slumped over, sat up straight again. "How did they die? Could they be enemy agents again?"

Xiao's mother shook her head, "No, the murderer didn't run away but went to the law enforcement office to turn himself in. He was the one who came to take revenge."

Xiao Yun's eyes lit up even more. "Mom, tell me more details!"

Aunt Xiao tossed the melon seeds back into the plate, clapped her hands, took a sip of water to moisten her throat, and then said, "To be honest, that person deserved it. A few years ago, he was competing with someone for the position of deputy director. He didn't take the right path and secretly put some of that stuff in someone's mouth, which led to the person being reported."

As a result, not only did that man lose his job, but his entire family was also sent to the countryside. And that guy didn't stop there; he used connections to get the whole family sent to the Northwest.

Although I've never been to the Northwest, I've heard a lot about it. In winter, it's just as cold as here, and there's a severe water shortage. I've heard that you have to use a basin of murky water to wash vegetables, hands, and clothes, and then use it to water the vegetables and feed the chickens. Plus, there might not be any people for dozens of miles. How can you live in such a place?

Sure enough, almost all of the dozen or so members of the family died, and only three people came back: the one who was vying for the position of deputy farm manager and his two nephews.

I heard that his wife, children, parents, brother and sister-in-law all died. Even if he is exonerated, he probably feels that there is no point in living. Then he felt that letting that person go to jail was too easy for him. After taking the compensation and settling his nephew, he went to take revenge.

It's said that they originally intended to set fire to the man's entire family to kill them, but upon hearing a child crying, they couldn't bear it. So, while the man went to the toilet, they knocked him unconscious, took him away, chopped him into pieces, and threw the remains into the man's pigsty. The next day, when the police went with him to identify the body, the pigs had eaten everything, leaving only bones and the head!

After finishing her story, Xiao's mother sighed and concluded, "You know, you can't be too heartless when you do things. Even a rabbit will bite when cornered. If you push someone too far, they'll fight you to the death. Luckily, that person was a kind person, otherwise we would have wiped out their entire family!"

Xiao Yun nodded, "Yeah, you bet!"

While agreeing with the sentiment, what they really thought was that the deputy director hadn't been ruthless enough. If he had simply killed everyone, there probably wouldn't have been any consequences. Either don't act at all, or when you do, strike decisively. If you don't kill the tiger, the consequences will be endless.

"Alright, I'm not talking to you anymore. Go back to your room and lie down for a while. I should go buy groceries too. Suixin will be out of school soon."

As she spoke, Xiao's mother stood up, brushed off the sunflower seed shells that had fallen onto her pants, and went to the kitchen to get a vegetable basket and a net bag.

Xiao Yun did not refuse. She was indeed a little tired. The sofa was the kind with springs and foam and sponge inside, which was too soft and made her back hurt.

When Hu Xuan returned that evening, Xiao Yun told him about it and asked if he had heard of it.

Fox Xuan really knew about it, and had heard about it long ago. He had been aware of it ever since that person was framed and his family was demoted.

It wasn't handled by him. The forest farm was quite large, and it didn't all belong to their commune. Half of it belonged to their side, and the other half belonged to another commune.

Both of them were from another commune, so when they reported the incident, they went to the tail-cutting association in their own commune.

Since they were part of the same system, Hu Xuan did hear some of the commotion, but he wasn't the type to meddle in other people's business, so he didn't overstep his bounds.

"After this incident came to light, were the members of the previous Tail-Cutting Society also held accountable?" Xiao Yun asked.

Hu Xuan shook his head. "No, although that person was wronged, the evidence was conclusive at the time. They arrested him based on the evidence and investigated according to procedure. They just couldn't find evidence that the other party was wronged, so they did nothing wrong."

Xiao Yun thought about it and agreed. Don't the police investigate cases based on evidence? If they relied solely on subjective speculation, there would be far more wrongful convictions. Even if you know someone is innocent, you can't clear their name if you can't find evidence.

As for why that person was exonerated, it wasn't because his injustice was cleared by anyone, but because the overall situation had changed. The things used to frame him back then weren't fatal. If it were something like treason, the person would probably have been executed on the spot. Those things were just not allowed to happen during that period of time, and they were no longer a problem after that period.

Just like during the crackdown, you could get arrested for blowing a hooligan whistle on the street, or be executed for having multiple boyfriends or girlfriends. But in later times, even if you were to run around naked in the street, you would at most get a warning for being indecent and a few words of education, and that would be the end of it. That's how the environment has changed.

On July 20th, Xiao Yun gave birth to twins more than a month early, one weighing 4.2 pounds and the other 3.8 pounds.
