Rebirth and Starting a Career in the 1960S

Su Wan was reborn in the famine era of 1960. Faced with the leaky hut, hungry brothers and sisters, and the plight of collective scarcity under the "big pot rice", she used her previous agricultural knowledge and policy memories to break the situation - secretly planted experimental fields to promote early-maturing crops. , Founded a sewing group to turn waste into treasure, led the members to build canals, open night schools, and build rice mills. Amid the doubts of the "tail of capitalism", and based on the principle of "returning the results to the public and making collective wealth", the poor production team was gradually built into a model for the county. She dealt with the obstruction of conservative forces and made use of the policy documents of the 1960s to resolve the crisis, from providing food and clothing for the family to motivating the whole village to open up wasteland and develop side businesses, quadrupling the yield per mu, and allowing women to pick up books, become literate, and earn work points through crafts. Rebirth is not cheating, but careful planning within the framework of the times - using plant ash to prevent pests, using old sewing machines to sew hope, and using the knowledge in the "Agricultural Manual" to fight against natural and man-made disasters. When the famine subsided, the terraced fields harvested, and the embroidery from the cooperative was sold to distant places, Su Wan watched her younger siblings go to college and her mother live in a brick house. She finally understood: the meaning of rebirth is never to be alone, but to let the hopes that had been crushed by fate grow full ears again in the seeds she had sown with her own hands. This is a "history of collective struggle" written by a woman in the countryside in the 1960s with wisdom and courage. It is also the epitome of a generation holding on to the land and growing towards the light in difficult circumstances.
