1980 My Entertainment Era

Chapter 47: Outside the Window

Because individuals were not allowed to engage in breeding, it seemed that raising more than three chickens and ducks was not allowed. It changed from a collective to an individual activity.

Without saying whether it is good or bad, just talking about the change in trends, if you compare and comprehend it carefully, you can feel a huge turning point.

When Xia Tian saw this report, he also got a piece of information. Just three days ago, on November 11, 24 fingerprints were pressed in Xiaogang Village, Fengyang, Anhui Province.

This marked the beginning of the policy of dividing the land among households and implementing contract responsibility system!
……

"Boom boom boom~" A knock on the door sounded.

"Is Xia Tian at home~" Milan's voice came from outside the door, with a hint of teasing and mischief.

"Not here!"

"Not here? If you're not here, I can come in~"

Milan opened the door, stuck his head in, and laughed shamelessly.

Seeing Xia Tian was about to speak, she immediately took out the folded clothes and said, "When the clothes are dry, I'll bring them to you!"

Xia Tian looked at the neatly folded white shirt in her hands and could only swallow the harsh words that were about to come out of her mouth.

Although he didn't want this girl to wash his clothes, he was not without hands!
But when someone washes your clothes cleanly and folds them neatly before delivering them to you, can you still curse them?
Xia Tian: A gentleman can be deceived by his own tactics. As expected, I am too gentlemanly.
"Don't wash it anymore. I thought someone stole my clothes!" Xia Tian said.

Milan smiled and said nothing: Just wash it!

She would never admit that she kind of likes the smell of summer, the kind of smell you can smell when you get close to her. It smells really good, not a flowery scent, nor a soap scent, hard to describe, but really good!
So, this dress... cough!

If she talked to the sisters and aunts in the dance troupe, she would find that they could smell it too.

The extremely strong fragrance that Xia Tian had carried on his body throughout his life did not disappear, but was hidden.

Milan came to the desk, stood behind Xia Tian, ​​bent down, and saw what book Xia Tian was reading.

Xia Tian glanced at her uncomfortably, "You're blocking the light."

Milan didn't care and kept some distance - if you take one step at a time, sooner or later your army will be defeated~
"Have you finished that picture?" she asked, looking around.

Sure enough, there was a painting on the easel against the wall covered with cloth.

"Well, okay. Take it! Here you go!" Xia Tian said helplessly.

Milan became interested in this painting when she was just drawing the line drawing and starting to apply the base color. She spent three days drawing it and staring at it for three days, wanting it so much.

Just consider it as her reward for doing the laundry!
Milan carefully lifted the canvas, and a standard 50cm x 60cm oil painting appeared before his eyes.

The painting looks very bright and clean at first glance. It depicts a room window in summer. A ray of sunlight shines into the room from the window, half shining on the desk and half shining on the bed - this is a bedroom in summer. The "strong fortress" that Milan has not been able to conquer in three months can only be viewed but not entered.

The view outside the window is very bright and eye-catching, with a blue sky and wisps of white clouds, birds flying in the sky that are not clearly visible, roofs, chimneys, streets...

The scenery inside and outside the house is displayed in a very comfortable proportion and contrast, and the colors are very comfortable...

Milan doesn’t understand painting, but he can tell whether something is good or bad. This is based on human’s basic understanding of feelings.

A painting that makes people happy physically and mentally at first sight, music that makes people feel comfortable mentally at first listening, sculptures and calligraphy that are beautiful at first glance...are naturally good.

As for those nonsense words from professionals, just treat them as fart.

Milan looked at the lower right corner of the painting. Xia Tian's signature was written on the corner of the bed sheet. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, "What is the name of this painting?"

Xia Tian casually said, "It's called "Outside the Window"."

Milan happily accepted the painting.

Next, she held the guitar and began to play and sing "I Love Yanjing Min'anmen".

After teaching for more than half a month, I can barely play this nursery rhyme with some difficulty.

There aren't many songs these days, and children's songs are simple. ...

It's December now and the weather is starting to get colder.

There was a little snow last night, but it melted before daybreak.

But people were all wearing thick clothes, bulky cotton jackets underneath their navy blue work clothes and Mao suits.

At the same time, a large number of small stoves for heating in every household were burning. Millions of people needed to heat and cook, and a huge amount of coal needed to be burned, so the sky began to become gray.

The supply of coal briquettes and honeycomb coal has increased in the past two years. Xia Tian and Xia's father have produced a quarter more honeycomb coal than in previous years. We can burn more this winter to keep warm.

But there is no need to burn fire in the tube-shaped building, as there is central heating.

So now I prefer to be here in the summer - I still have to light the stove at home, and as long as it is not time to get off work, I need to go home early to cook so that my parents can have a ready-made meal. I am not at home in the summer.

On December 12, the national work conference on sending educated youth to the countryside produced results.

Finally, it was decided to adjust the policy, actively open up new fields and industries in cities, create employment and further education conditions for more urban high school graduates, gradually narrow the scope of moving to the countryside, and cities with resettlement conditions will no longer mobilize people to move to the countryside.

In other words, the Up to the Countryside Movement was completely put to an end, and young people were no longer sent to the countryside.

People like Fang Yan and Ma Xiaojun did pick it up.

……

When I came here, I was a teenager, full of passion, but over the years, the harsh conditions have worn away my passion.

What’s more, what is worrying is not the scarcity but the inequality.

According to the information Xia Tian got from Ma Xiaojun, Ye Jing and others, the children of high-ranking officials had not been sent down to the lower levels as early as a few years ago.

Nowadays on the streets, you can see men and women in their early twenties rushing around, with confusion in their eyes.

The employment problem of these people is enough to cause headaches, not to mention that there are tens of millions of them anxiously waiting to come back!
A few days later, on the 15th, a new book was put on the shelves at Xinhua Bookstore!
……

A few days later, Ma Xiaojun came to Xia Tian stealthily.

"Hey, Xia Tian!" He looked around like a monkey stealing peaches.

Milan looked at him helplessly and smiled. Xia Tian also couldn't stand it: "What's the matter again? Look at your behavior. Have you changed your career to become a Buddhist?"

"Tsk, no!" Feeling that he had lost face in front of Milan, Ma Xiaojun quickly explained, "I heard a piece of news, don't let others hear it, it's not good."

"Say!"

"Hey~"

What Ma Xiaojun was talking about was actually what Xia Tian was worried about some time ago.

But there is a shortage of jobs in the city, how can it be that simple?

Most of them are ordinary people. They see everyone else leaving. If they don’t leave now, will they ever be able to leave in this life?
So, there were cases of people breaking their legs, swallowing something harmful, and returning to the city as a way of curing illness.

Xia Tian thought of a movie called "The Scent of Heaven" starring Santa Claus. That movie certainly has exaggerations and exceptions, but it also illustrates the problem.

And just a few days ago,

This is definitely not a trivial matter, otherwise the news would not have spread from the remote border province of Yunnan to the capital.

This issue cannot be delayed any longer!
But there is nothing I can do!

What's more, there are bigger problems waiting for us when we come back.

Some book friends think that the pictures chosen by the heroine are not good-looking!
I don’t accept it!
Even if Ning Jing is not a peerless beauty, she is definitely pretty and charming.
