Rebirth in the 50s: The Couple with the Hidden Space novel Chapter 1236

Chapter 1236: Chapter 1109: The Legendary Educated Youth

There is one without a match.

Miao Lishan had just finished recounting this farce.

Over there, Zhang Guoqing also held a letter from the hometown.

"Second Brother said that the production teams near the county town are in chaos, with many educated youths becoming Chen Shimei or Pan Jinlian. This year, a newly admitted group of college students almost caused a fatality."

"It’s a sin!"

Zhang Guoqing nodded in agreement with his mother-in-law’s words, "It’s slightly better for those without children, otherwise the most pitiable are still the children."

Zhou Jiao’s eyes narrowed slightly at his words, and after giving him a glance, she buried herself in sorting through the "trophies" from her afternoon shopping.

Continuing this topic would inevitably lead to discussions about child custody and alimony.

The past is in the past.

She didn’t want her mother to reflect, making everyone a bit awkward.

Now her mom is a dutiful wife, a dutiful mother-in-law, and a dutiful grandmother, and that’s enough.

When it comes to the topic of educated youth, Zhou Jiao was even less inclined to comment.

Legendary educated youth, perhaps as Zhang the Second said, there are indeed some who are like Chen Shimei and Pan Jinlian. But it’s not absolute, aren’t there also good ones?

There are no educated youths who don’t long to return to the city, including those who have married and had children in the village. For them, returning to the city has become an obsession.

Their relatives are in the city, their dreams are in the city. Compared to the barren countryside and the heavy labor, clearly the decent and easy life in the city is what they seek.

Having lost hope of returning to the city before, now they desperately clutch at any life-saving straw, it’s just human nature’s darkest side emerging.

Ultimately, it’s all caused by this era.

They are all pathetic and pitiable products.

Especially those educated youths forced into unions...

Aunt Chen, who came in carrying tea, sighed, "If the admitted educated youth could bring along the household registration of their loved ones and children, that would be great."

That statement hit the nail on the head.

Household registration goes along with food rations, it can indeed solve many problems, after all, not everyone can endure the shame of abandoning their family.

Zhou Jiao’s eyes flashed at these words. The imagination is wonderful, but reality won’t allow it.

Back then so many people were sent to the countryside, not without the factor of urban overpopulation. Now, after more than ten years, it’s not even about each one getting married, there are also a lot of children.

If a vast population suddenly floods into the city from the countryside, it would strain not just housing, but even the daily grain supply would be overwhelming.

Aunt Chen was not a talkative person.

After saying this, she didn’t wait for any answer, it was just a grievance aired.

Although Zhou Xiaozheng was a big commander, after so many years of subtle influence, she also understood that the higher the person’s position, the more problems they have to consider.

"Xiao Wu, Da Yi called this afternoon, saying you weren’t home, and he would come over after dinner, telling you not to go out. I gather it’s not something urgent."

Zhang Guoqing took a sip of tea and shook his head with a wry smile.

Miao Lishan couldn’t care about anything else when she saw this, and as soon as Aunt Chen left, she immediately asked, "What’s going on?" It was rare to see her son-in-law with such an expression.

Zhang Guoqing rubbed his back neck, "He always wants to take my son."

Miao Lishan burst into laughter, "Our family doesn’t lose out, Little Tangtang is so pretty and clever, marrying into the family is not like being married off. But we can’t agree right away; we should wait until the children are older to talk about it."
