Chapter 2 Time Travel

"The east is red and the sun is rising."

The period-specific singing outside woke Han Li up from his sleep. This was not the first time that this had happened.

He opened his eyes helplessly and turned over, staring blankly at the dim environment in the room.

After experiencing many days, he knew that the sky now was only dim at best without opening the curtains.

While Han Li was in a daze, the sound of his mother and sister cooking could be heard outside.

Han Li listened to the radio, got dressed and got up, then sat on the edge of the bed and continued to recover.

At this time, there was still an extremely unreal feeling in his mind, which made him recall it involuntarily.

Who would have thought that more than a month ago, he was still living in the 22nd century full of technology.

Although he is a typical college student who is unemployed after graduation, oh, he is also a senior otaku.

Just because I stayed up late to synthesize a piece of game equipment, I opened my eyes and came to the Forty-Nine City in 1973.

Not only do they have complete parents, but they also have a big family with two older sisters and one younger sister.

Although a family of four or five children is normal in this era, the living conditions are not much better than theirs.

I don’t dare to eat steamed buns made with pure white flour very often, but steamed buns mixed with two kinds of noodles definitely contain more white flour than those in ordinary people’s homes.

Every once in a while, you can still see a little meat and fish, all of which is attributed to his current family.

Dad Han (Han Fugui) is a rather distinctive name. It is said that my grandfather’s family was very poor at that time.

So I gave him such a promising name. He is now a bus driver and earns more than 60 yuan a month including subsidies.

Although buses do not have as many external recruitment as long-distance drivers, the advantage is that safety is absolutely guaranteed.

These days, truck drivers are generally armed with guns, and even so, many accidents occur every year.

The society of Han's mother (Zhang Pingping) was relatively chaotic at that time, and her grandfather hoped that his children would grow up safely.

She is a street office worker, her salary is less than thirty yuan, but she does a lot of work.

Sister Han (Han Chunhong) was 21 years old. She took advantage of Father Han. At that time, the bus company took care of the children of its employees.

So she became a bus conductor and successfully held the iron rice bowl in her hands.

The eldest sister's monthly salary totals 22.5 yuan, and she has to pay 19 yuan to her family every month, and the rest is her disposable property.

The second sister Han (Han Chunxia) was 19 years old. She had better luck. After graduating from high school, she happened to find a job in a supply and marketing cooperative.

Her best friend's father happened to be the top official there, so he got the news first and exclusively.

Then the two of them took the exam together, and by coincidence, the second sister and her best friend were admitted at the same time.

Second Sister Han is now, like Dad Han, gloriously becoming a salesperson one of the Eight Great Members.

You must know that if an average person can become a salesperson in this era, it will definitely be like smoke rising from their ancestors' graves.

Second Sister Han has only been working for a short period of time, only 19.5 per month, but she cannot afford the benefits.

Every once in a while, some defective products will be produced, and these cheap and free products are digested internally.

Since the second sister Han is a newcomer, these defective Han mothers usually don't let the second sister compete with others.

But the money she should hand over must not be less, and each person can only keep 3 yuan of pocket money every month.

The two sisters also resisted Mother Han's oppression, but how could Monkey Sun escape from Buddha's Wuzhishan?

Mother Han dismissed them with just one sentence, "Don't you want to eat at home? Do you want to live at home?"

As an elder sister, wouldn’t it be right for you to pay more and let mom save it for your brother?

Since Han Li was the only child in the family, his older sister and younger sister were both trained by his mother to look like Voldemort.

This phenomenon is relatively normal in this era. If you want not to be bullied in your husband's family, you must first stand up for yourself.

Secondly, the mother's family must provide support. At this time, the role of the elder brother and younger brother becomes prominent.

If a sister is bullied at her husband's house and her brother-in-law hits her brother-in-law, that's a real beating.

If my husband's family doesn't apologize after the beating, the neighbors will say that their family is bad.

In the future, if the son is disobedient and unfilial, his uncle will come on stage and beat him to death, and the neighbors will only applaud him.

So for ordinary women, their elder brothers and younger brothers are the ones who can support them.

However, after the implementation of family planning, this phenomenon began to gradually disappear in the eyes of the masses.

As the only son in the family, Han Li lived a relatively comfortable life, living a life where he could only stretch out his hands for food and open his mouth for clothes.

He didn't have to do any housework at all. From the time he entered junior high school, he had an allowance of 50 cents every week.

But from memory, he could afford this treatment. When he was in junior high school, a neighbor gossiped about Sister Han.

Han Li not only put a sack on his youngest son, but also led others to smash all the windows in their house.

This neighbor's family had three sons, and that time Han Li was severely beaten by their third brother.

Although he went back to seek revenge on his classmates afterwards, he suffered so much that he lay in bed for several days.

Dad Han smoked for a long time that day, and then took him to meet a master with a large bag of gifts.

This master’s surname is Li, his ancestral home is Hebei, and he practices Xingyiquan passed down from his family.

He was originally a driver of a transportation brigade, and he encountered an accident while driving.

At that time, he captured eight people by himself. Because it was late at night, he was accidentally beaten and lame in one leg.

Since he couldn't work as a driver, the transportation brigade placed him at the gate of the bus company.

Due to the special environment during this period and the fact that there were so many people who did not have enough to eat, few people dared to practice boxing.

So Han Li successfully became a master named Li and skipped the rest of the training part.

Han Xiaomei (Han Chunying) and Han Li are twins. The two siblings went to school at the age of six, spending five years in primary school, three years in junior high school, and two years in high school.

This year happens to be my graduation from high school, which is the age that worries my family the most.

Because according to relevant regulations, except for children who are already working.

Each family could only keep one child at home, and the rest had to go to the countryside to receive re-education from poor and lower-middle peasants.

But now it's 1973, and workers in most cities and towns are at saturation, let alone the Forty-Nine Cities in the heart of the country.

Although high school graduates are considered talents these days, they are really nothing in Forty-Nine Cities.

Eight out of ten young people wandering the streets looking for jobs in various factories are high school graduates.

Nowadays, the children of general cadres cannot be assigned jobs. Even if there are places in some factories, they are determined internally.

PS: (The eight major members are: salesperson, driver, postman, childcare worker, hairdresser, projectionist, cook, and art troupe member.)
