Traveling back to Tongzilou in the 1960s, Lin Wanqiu opened her eyes and saw her mother-in-law breaking the last half of the cornmeal: "Daughter-in-law who can't lay eggs, go back to your parents' home as soon as possible!"
Looking at her sister-in-law, who was so hungry and skinny, and her father-in-law, who had been criticized so hard that he couldn't straighten his back, she clutched the crescent scar on her palm - her experience as a barefoot doctor in her previous life was not just a decoration!
They cleared wasteland to grow medicinal herbs in the coal shed, exchanged food stamps for money and engaged in the black market. An old medical book exchanged for half a bag of dried sweet potatoes turned out to be a life-saving talisman for the whole family.
"In late autumn, the captain's wife has a difficult delivery!"
"In late autumn, a brick kiln factory worker was injured!"
She grabbed the herbs with her left hand and counted the work points with her right hand, forcefully pulling the house that was on the verge of falling apart back on track.
The mother-in-law said: "A woman has no shame in being in public!"
Lin Wanqiu directly threw out ten kilograms of food stamps: "Is it enough to buy you a new headscarf?"
My sister-in-law was timid: "Sister, I also want to study..."
She modified her sewing machine overnight and made a new schoolbag for her sister-in-law: "I'll go tomorrow!"
From secretly exchanging food stamps to opening the first herbal medicine shop in the county; from family members of the "five black categories" who were criticized, to "Doctor Lin" who is respected by everyone.
Lin Wanqiu stood in front of the assembly line of her factory, looking at the smiles on the faces of her family, and finally understood:
How can there be any golden fingers in this era? All you can rely on is a pair of hard-working hands and a heart that dares to fight!
As for those gossips?
Oh, wait until she takes her whole family to live in a small foreign-style house, who dares to gossip!
