Chapter 819 Letter From Tianjun 4
The peaceful and warm life continued until winter, when Lu Jiang and Feng Qingxue received a letter from Lu Tianjun.
The grain harvest of Wanglou Brigade this year was not very good, mainly because the harvest of wheat and rice decreased by 30%. After paying the public grain, there was not enough to distribute to each household. Fortunately, most families received coarse grains and did not want fine grains, and the output of coarse grains such as sweet potatoes and corn decreased only slightly, so the family only sent them 50 kilograms of white flour, 20 kilograms of rice and various dried vegetables from the private plot.
Father Lu explained that the white flour and rice were for the children to cook.
The old man treated Xibao and Fubao equally, and did not stop sending fine grains to the children because of the reduction in grain production.
After Feng Qingxue joined the army, Lu Jiang's father and Lu Tianjun were in charge of the communication with his comrades. Huo Beiting, as usual, sent food coupons and money, and then bought some food from here and sent it back to him. Hu Ping still sent Northeast specialties, but did not ask for food. It was said that there was enough food there, so Lu's father asked Lu Tianjun to send them money.
As for other comrades, they gradually reduced the exchange of food and specialties. Perhaps they also knew that the Lu family could not have so much food to exchange with them. Since the famine was over, there was no need to ask for it, but they would still occasionally send some specialties to the Lu family.
Seeing this, Feng Qingxue said to Lu Jiang: "We have saved a lot of food coupons in the past few months, and we will send them back home."
With the space as a backing, the couple can save 20 to 30 kilograms of food coupons every month.
Lu Jiang nodded, "What else did Tianjun say in the letter?"
"You can see it yourself." Feng Qingxue handed it to him.
After just a few glances, Lu Jiang frowned, "Tianjun can't continue to go to school?"
"Yes. Tianjun took the college entrance examination this year. He has always performed well. According to common sense, he can be admitted to the university of his choice. However, his class background is not good enough, and no one dares to take the risk, so his studies stop here."
In Feng Qingxue's opinion, it doesn't matter whether Lu Tianjun goes to college now. In a few days, it will be 1966.
Even if Lu Tianjun did not get into college because of his class background, he would interrupt his studies and go home to farm. Children in the countryside must go back to the countryside unless they have a city household registration or can find a job.
High school education is not low.
However, Feng Qingxue remembered that Lu Tianjun said several times that he wanted to join the army, and he also expressed his intention in the letter.
Lu Jiang didn't know that the future turmoil would involve the cultural community, so he felt sorry for his nephew, "The country recruits soldiers every year. It's not that he doesn't have a chance to join the army, but his class background prevents him from going to college, entering government agencies and factories, and naturally he won't be admitted to the army. I have to ask someone for help. If I don't ask someone for help, he can't be a soldier at all."
The eldest brother and sister-in-law passed away early, leaving only two children. It's pitiful that they have no father and no mother. For them, Lu Jiang is willing to violate his own life principles and find someone to open a back door to let Lu Tianjun enter the army.
Feng Qingxue agreed: "Then ask someone to give Tianjun a chance. Anyway, his qualities in all aspects meet the conscription conditions."
If the country treats everyone equally in this regard, then Feng Qingxue will not let Lu Jiang go through the back door, but let Lu Tianjun achieve his goal through his own efforts. After all, going through the back door is a kind of evil spirit that should not be allowed to grow. It's a pity that this era discriminates too much against children with bad class backgrounds, which has delayed the lives of many children.
