Back to the 60s: The Struggle Career of a Charmed Wife

The people who came to pick up Zhou Fengchun arrived faster than expected.

On the third day after Feng Qingxue returned home, a jeep drove into the Wanglou Brigade.

This was the first time a car appeared in the Wanglou Brigade, and no matter young or old, all ran out to see the rarity upon hearing the sound, shouting in amazement, until the car stopped in the open space of the brigade office, and two military men in slightly old uniforms got out.

One was in his thirties, and the other around forty.

Wang Zhenguo came out of the office, "I am the secretary of the Wanglou Brigade, what brings you here from afar, comrades?"

Looking at the elderly man in front of them, standing straight and neatly dressed, the two saluted, and the older one took a document from his briefcase and handed it to him, "Greetings, old comrade. We are from the Jinling Military Region stationed in Huaibei City. We have received orders to specifically fetch Comrade Zhou Fengchun and take him to the capital for rehabilitation. This is the telegram sent from above."

Wang Zhenguo examined it carefully and said with a smile, "Thank you for your hard work, comrades. I'll take you to find Comrade Zhou."

He sincerely hoped that the elders who had been sent down to the Wanglou Brigade could be rehabilitated as soon as possible. Even if they could not return to their previous posts, they could live with dignity instead of being labeled as bad elements and subjected to humiliation.

People should be judged by good and evil, not by social class.

Over the years, he had seen many people with good social standing who were arrogant and vicious, their misdeeds were endless, but he was powerless to change it; he could only ensure that the environment in the Wanglou Brigade remained honest.

When they found the elders' residence, Aunty Xu was drying the bedding, "Old Zhou is at Xiaoxue's home."

Wang Zhenguo, upon hearing this, headed to the Lu Family.

Hearing the laughter and cheerfulness in the courtyard, recalling the buildings and the spirit of the people in the Wanglou Brigade, the two military men's eyes flashed with a trace of surprise, feeling it was better than many towns.

When people are well-fed and clothed, such a prosperous scene is possible.

The older military man couldn't help but glance at Wang Zhenguo as the latter knocked on the door, "Xiaoxue, Xiaoxue, is old Zhou with you? Someone has come to take him back to the capital for rehabilitation!"

The laughter in the courtyard suddenly stopped, followed by an even louder exclamation.

In the midst of the exclamations, the door opened, and Lu Erxiong's little black face appeared before the three of them, "Uncle Grandpa, are they taking Grandpa Zhou away? No, I don't want Grandpa Zhou to leave."

Wang Zhenguo patted his sun-darkened face from last year, "You should respect Grandpa Zhou and ask if he wants to leave."

Lu Erxiong suddenly became disheartened; even a fool could see that Grandpa Zhou wanted to return to his work.

Zhou Fengchun's bright and aged voice sounded behind him, "Erxiong, when you and your mother return to the capital, we can meet again. What's there to be reluctant about? Grandpa Zhou will buy you lots of delicious and fun stuff when he gets back to the capital."

Lu Erxiong's eyes lit up, and he turned around to pat Zhou Fengchun's arm with his little hand, then held onto his arm, "That's great!"

They would be able to meet again soon; perhaps Grandpa Zhou could even teach him how to shoot.

The two who came to fetch Zhou Fengchun were even more surprised. Although Zhou Fengchun's clothing was tattered, it was very clean, with densely stitched patches, and the cotton garment was heavy and thick. He didn't seem to be in the destitute and haggard state they had imagined. Instead, his complexion was ruddy, and his energy was high, appearing even a bit plumper than in the photos before the incident, making him look a little younger.

Could the Wanglou Brigade truly be a good place? Even the elders sent down to the countryside for labor reform could be well-fed and clothed.
