Chapter 373 374 [Forgiveness is the privilege of the strong]
Xiang Nan couldn't help sighing when he heard her say that.
The fate of people is really impermanent.
In the original novel, Xiaoping was sent to a field hospital, where she met a platoon leader and got engaged to marry him. But the platoon leader died accidentally after going to the battlefield, making Xiaoping once helpless.
Unexpectedly, this time, it was Lin Dingding who got involved in this matter.
In fact, if the regiment leader does not sacrifice, he will at least have to be promoted to the rank of deputy division after finishing the battle. Even if he catches up with the disarmament in 1985 and returns to the local area professionally, he can still serve as a leader at the county level, and he can be regarded as a senior member of the party.
Lin Dingding can actually enjoy happiness when he marries him.
But he sacrificed himself. As a result, Lin Dingding's life will be difficult.
When she changed jobs and returned to the local area, it happened to be just in time for the educated youth to return to the city. A large number of unemployed people have returned to the city, making jobs very scarce. As a result, it is really difficult to find a job. She took the child again, which made things worse.
Although I got married in the end, but having more children is just a bit inconvenient. Just like Xiaoping, I don't know how much anger she suffered back then.
…
"There are also Wang Huaibo, Lu Yining, Tan Zao, Qiu Peining..." Hao Shuwen then told the experience of these people again, and it was obvious that she had become a qualified eighth wife.
Through her retelling, Xiang Nan also knew the dynamics of those people in the regiment.
After the political commissar arrived in the military region, he was forced to change jobs and return to the local area to catch up with the million-dollar disarmament in 1985. I worked as the deputy director of an agricultural machinery factory in the city, and I had contacted Hao Shuwen a few years ago, hoping to buy a set of processing equipment that was eliminated by the ordnance factory.
However, in the past two years, the private economy has risen, and state-owned enterprises have gradually fallen behind. The agricultural machinery factory of the political commissar may not be able to withstand the torrent of the market.
Tan Zao and Qiu Peining got married in 1977, and now their children are all grown up. The two of them have also become authentic housewives, and now they are living a happy life.
Wang Huaibo and Lu Yining were admitted to university and were assigned jobs after graduation. Now they are doing well in their respective jobs. Wang Huaibo has even become the backbone of state-owned enterprises.
Chen Can also changed jobs after the disarmament in 1985, and now works as the deputy director of the city library. The disfigurement in 1975 dealt him a great blow, which made him afraid to see people now.
Zhu Ke was released after serving his sentence in 1979 and returned to his hometown. His family also has some power, so he was assigned to work in a factory. Because he had been in prison before, and he didn't learn well in prison. After he came out, he played around and had several girlfriends. As a result, he was exposed later and was sentenced to another ten years for hooliganism. He was just released this year after serving his sentence.
…
Xiang Nan sighed after listening, and then smiled, "Hao Shuwen, you really know a lot. We are also in Yanjing, why haven't we heard about these things?"
"You are all busy people, how can you be as idle as I am?" Hao Shuwen smiled, "Besides, these are not secrets, as long as you inquire carefully, you can always find out. I have lived on this gossip for the past few years. "
Xiang Nan nodded with a smile when he heard what she said.
To be honest, because he didn't like most of the members of the art troupe, after the art troupe disbanded, he almost cut off contact with everyone.
The only exception is Xiao Suizi. And Xiao Suizi is not a person who likes to gossip, so naturally he doesn't know these things.
"Okay, there is a chance for us old comrades in the art troupe to get together." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "I haven't seen you for many years, and I miss you all."
"Okay, I'll organize it and call you when the time comes." Hao Shuwen agreed without hesitation.
"Yes. By the way, Hao Shuwen, tell your husband to stop as soon as possible, and quit in the first half of the year at the latest." Xiang Nan nodded and reminded, "The current property and land prices in Hainan are too outrageous. It won't last long , there may be a sharp drop in the second half of the year."
"Okay, I'll tell him what you said." Hao Shuwen nodded.
She knew that Xiang Nan was not a rambunctious person. If he dared to say that, he must have his reasons.
…
Xiang Nan played with Xiaoping and Liu Hao in Hainan for a month, and then returned to Yanjing.
Following him, I received a call from Hao Shuwen. She had contacted more than a dozen comrades in Yanjing. As long as Xiang Nan had time, she could start a party at any time.
As soon as Xiang Nan heard this, he responded immediately, and immediately held a banquet in Quanjude for the comrades in arms of the art troupe.
"I haven't seen them for more than ten years, and I really miss them." Xiaoping laughed.
Although she was bullied a little in the art troupe back then, she always had more fun. What's more, after so many years, she is now a harmonious husband and wife, with a happy family and a successful career. Some of the unhappiness in the past has long been forgotten, and the rest are basically good memories.
In fact, during the days in the art troupe, it was the first time she tasted the sweetness after ten years of hard life. So she was extremely impressed by that time.
So it is really a happy thing for her to reunite with everyone and reminisce about those years.
…
One day in May, the comrades in the art troupe gathered together again.
"Hey, leader, you are still so handsome, you haven't changed at all."
"Xiao Ping, you are still so beautiful, oh, you are so well maintained!"
"Leader, I heard that you have made a fortune now, and you have earned several million just by writing novels."
When the big guys saw Xiang Nan and Xiaoping, they all gathered around and said.
Xiang Nan and Xiaoping are now successful people in their careers. Xiang Nan goes to the Spring Festival Gala every year, writes novels, and makes movies. He is both a big star and a great writer. He must have made a lot of money.
Xiaoping is also a great writer now, and has written "The Snail's Home", "After Lights Out", "Building No. 14", "The High Wall" and so on. These novels are all her original creations, based on her childhood misfortunes memory.
Although she received mixed reviews after its launch, she is still number one in the literary world. She's a pretty good female writer.
Compared to the two of them, most of the others are just ordinary people. Maybe there is a part-time job, but it is far behind Xiang Nan and Xiaoping. That's why they were so enthusiastic.
"Haha, Huaibo, long time no see! Tan Zao, you're still so pretty!" Xiang Nan also greeted everyone with a smile, a little bit of returning home.
At this moment, he saw a middle-aged woman who vaguely looked like Lin Dingding from her appearance. But he was nearly twice as fat as Lin Dingding, with a broad face and a thick belly. Standing there, he looked like a gas tank turned into a spirit.
"You...you are Lin Dingding?" Xiang Nan guessed in surprise, he couldn't believe his eyes.
Lin Dingding nodded nonchalantly, as if he had gotten used to it for a long time.
