In the last month of 1982, a wave of contraceptive and IUD installation swept across the nation.
If the family had an only child, parents who underwent sterilization surgery would receive a monetary reward.
The village loudspeakers, slogans on walls, catchy phrases, and a group of women directors with red armbands were all busy and bustling.
This always happens when a new policy is implemented, causing a big stir.
Liu Yulan's current life is quite leisurely; she takes care of the family's three meals a day, cleans the communal areas, and then... well, that's it.
She has a lot of free time, but she can't sit still. So, she turned the courtyard garden into a small vegetable patch, and seeing the green sprouts thriving fills her with satisfaction.
With several families eating together, Cheng Xue and Wang Pandi give Liu Yulan money for food every month.
Wang Pandi's morning sickness has passed, and now she has a very good appetite, she can eat and sleep well.
