173 lotteries
Listen to what these people are saying.
Chun Tao was a little angry.
"Sister Huanxi, why are these people like this? We don't owe them! Why do you say that!"
Yes, I don't owe them anything.
On the contrary, because of my good business, I also brought a lot of customers to these stalls.
But now, because they didn't get the benefits they wanted from me, they treated me like an enemy.
But I wasn't angry either.
Because that's human nature.
I used to bring them a flow of people, which was not my intention.
So I don't need their gratitude either.
And now, I don't care about their resentment.
I just have to be myself.
......
Nothing happened that night.
At noon the next day, I'm going out to send a courier.
Because now, in addition to setting up stalls, some sisters like those who used to work in factories are also willing to buy clothes from me.
It's just that the factory is a bit far away from here, so I always send them the photos, and then they choose, and I send them by courier.
Or on weekends, let Chun Tao's mother bring it over.
One to ten, ten to hundred.
Later, not only the factory where I worked, but also the rest of the factories, there were people willing to buy my clothes.
It has increased my income a lot.
......
After sending the clothes at the courier station, I walked back.
It is also a row of low bungalows.
I had just passed a doorway when I heard a swift wind coming towards me.
I subconsciously ducked.
There was only a "click" and a beer bottle fell heavily to the ground.
Falling apart, pieces of beer bottles were scattered all over the ground.
Is this someone attacking me?
That was my first reaction.
But then, a man was seen pulling a woman's hair and pushing her out heavily.
While pushing, he also beat and scolded again.
"Stinky, where's my wine? My wine is gone! Go buy me wine! Tell you, if you don't let me drink and get drunk, I'll kill you!"
It turned out to be a drunkard husband beating his wife.
I despise such a man in my heart.
I don't think it's right to hit someone.
Beating his wife is the most unproductive move.
As he thought about it, the husband had knocked his wife to the ground.
I still don't understand the hatred.
Keep punching and kicking.
Then out of the yard came a boy who looked like a junior high school.
The boy went over and pulled his father: "Dad, don't hit my mother, don't beat my mother." ”
The man drank alcohol, treated his wife as a human being, and did not care about his children.
He flew up and kicked his son over.
"Get out! I don't need you little cub to get out of my business! I'm your father, and you're my father!"
The boy was knocked to the ground by his father.
But he is sensible.
He didn't dare to do it directly with his father, and he didn't continue to beg for mercy, but rushed up and lay on his mother's body.
Protect your mother's body with your own body.
Don't hit my mother, if you want to hit me, hit me.
When the drunken husband sees his son defending his mother like this, he feels that this is a challenge to his authority.
So in the past, even his son and wife were beaten together.
"Husband, don't fight, buy, I'm going to buy wine, I was wrong......"
The wife didn't cry when she was beaten by her husband.
Now when I saw my son being beaten because of himself, he cried loudly.
The drunken husband was satisfied, and staggered and scolded back to the courtyard.
Left this poor mother and son crying outside.
Then the beaten wife lifted the child up. Carefully pat the dirt off his body.
"Son, does it hurt?" the woman asked.
"Mom, I don't hurt, do you hurt?" the child asked.
"Mom doesn't hurt either. Child, when your dad gets drunk and crazy again, you listen to your mother and stay away, do you know? Don't come over and take care of your mother, your mother is fine. The woman said.
"But I can't let him beat you all the time. Mom, don't worry, when I grow up, I'll help you beat him!" the child said angrily.
"Silly boy, don't talk nonsense, let him know, that's not light. You go back to do your homework, you have to study hard, and the rest of your mother will depend on you for the rest of my life. ”
After saying that, the woman asked her son to go home and do his homework.
She came to me.
......
Drunks beating their wives is a very common thing everywhere.
Originally, I didn't pay too much attention to it.
I won't watch it all the time.
But this time is different.
Because I found out that the woman who was beaten, I actually knew!
Not only do you know each other, but you can even say that you are an enemy.
It's actually Sister Wu?
That Sister Wu, who has a strong figure and a strong personality, has always been known for being spicy.
Sister Wu's toughness is not just talking, but there are practical examples.
Few of these stall owners at the night market have not quarreled with her.
Including the trouble that came to me before, it was also this Sister Wu who took the lead.
I really didn't expect her status in the family to be so low.
was actually abused by her husband, and she didn't dare to resist.
Sister Wu's figure is very fat.
And the husband who beat her just now, I can see clearly, his figure is not strong.
is a lot thinner than Sister Wu.
Why did Sister Wu swallow her anger and endure humiliation?
Can't fight back, don't scold back?
Is it because of love?
I really don't understand.
......
So Sister Wu came over and saw me.
The two of us looked at each other, and both felt that the atmosphere was a little awkward.
Then it was Sister Wu who spoke first.
"What are you here for? Are you here to take revenge? I admit that I lost my eyes, this time I planted it, I didn't expect you to be such a scheming woman, actually playing the game of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, relying on Fei Ge, of course you have no fear. Now Xiaoyu and I are both afraid to set up stalls anymore because of you, and the business is yellow, are you satisfied?"
I looked at Sister Wu's blue nose and swollen face: "Let me correct you, first of all, I didn't pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger, I pretended to be a pig and a tiger to show weakness first, deliberately set a trap, lure you into the bait and then hit you in the face, but obviously, I am not." From beginning to end, you were the ones who took the initiative to trouble me. Secondly, it is also because of this reason, so now you can't set up stalls, you can't do business, I don't care why, it has nothing to do with me, you can't count me, because I have never taken the initiative to find you trouble. ”
Sister Wu snorted: "We offended you, offended your sister-in-law, that is, if you don't say it, if you don't take action personally, naturally a group of your brothers will come to us for trouble, where do we dare to show our heads? Don't worry, Xiaoyu and I will not appear in the night market again in the future, and you will be the eldest sister there in the future, and you will be the one who has completed the clothing business." ”
Her tone showed full reluctance.
I understand her feelings.
Yes, online shopping is very developed now.
Therefore, many brick-and-mortar stores that sell clothes are difficult to do.
The doors of one house after another.
The reason why the night market is good is because of the large flow of people and the low cost of doing business.
Even if there is a management fee, it also saves the cost of rent, utilities, and property.
If Sister Wu and Xiaoyu don't do business in the night market, there really isn't much suitable place for them to set up stalls.
Rent a storefront?
That's too costly.
Besides, here in the night market of the urban village, they are the elderly, and I am the newcomer.
So they can bully me.
But if they go somewhere else, then they become latecomers.
may have been bullied and xenophobic by the original person again.
But who is to blame for this?
In the final analysis, it's all your own doing, and it's your own fault.
So I didn't pick up her stubble.
I just asked with some curiosity: "It was your husband who beat you just now, why didn't you resist? Aren't you very powerful and majestic?"
That's really something I couldn't figure out.
Sister Wu's internal and external contrast is too great.
Sister Wu listened to my question, and her face froze: "You saw it all just now? Seeing that I was being beaten, I felt revenge, didn't I? Yes, that was my husband, but this is my housework, and I don't need you to take care of it! I am happy to be beaten! You can go around and say, Sister Wu, don't look at the outside with her teeth and claws, in fact, she is a bag of anger at home. Go ahead, anyway, I'm already defeated and embarrassed, and I'm not afraid of ridicule from others. ”
Look at her as if she was broken and broken.
I think it's ridiculous.
couldn't help but sarcastically said: "Yes, it is your housework that you are beaten by your husband, and others can't take care of it, maybe this is still your hobby, after all, some people just like to be abused, the harder they are abused, the happier they are, and even people who eat and drink urine." But I ask you, are you happy that your son was also beaten?"
My words hit the nail on the head of Sister Wu.
Her mouth opened suddenly.
After a few movements, no sound occurred.
Because just now she was holding on, wanting to maintain her last pride and dignity in front of my opponent.
I saw that she was speechless, and continued: "You are a little mistaken, I was not happy when I saw you being beaten just now. Let me first state that I am not a tolerant and generous woman, I am very resentful, you have offended me, of course I am happy to see you unlucky, but not including the situation just now. Because, I hate domestic violence, and because your child is innocent, he shouldn't be beaten with him. As annoying as you are, your son is really a good son. A child who is filial to his mother must be an excellent child. ”
I'm speaking from my heart.
If I see Sister Wu being beaten by others, such as being beaten by other stall owners or Xu Fei's men, I will be happy to see it and applaud.
But seeing that she was beaten by her husband, her son was also beaten.
But I couldn't be happier.
Because I hate domestic violence.
Because I was also a victim of domestic violence.
Beaten by his father, beaten by his brother, and treated rudely from a young age.
There is no dignity, and it is submissive.
Just because I am a woman, women have no status in the family, no importance.
You can be called around and scolded.
So, I sympathize with other women who have been insulted and damaged.
There are also children who are in vulnerable groups.
Although Sister Wu is very annoying, she is very underwhelmed.
But that's not a reason why she should be subjected to domestic violence.
She can be beaten, but it shouldn't be her husband who does it.
Compared with the arrogant Sister Wu, the drunkard husband who beats his wife should be hated even more.
......
My words obviously made Sister Wu stunned.
Then, for the first time, a look of guilt appeared on her face.
"I'm sorry, but I'm a gentleman with the heart of a villain. You're right, I'm mixed up like this, it's all my own doing, I don't have the face to blame you. ”
Sister Wu actually apologized to me?
I am a person who eats soft rather than hard.
As soon as Sister Wu apologized like this, I was embarrassed to be sarcastic and sarcastic about her.
In fact, if you count it seriously, although it was Sister Wu who made trouble for me first.
But it's never me who suffers.
When I think about it, I am relieved.
I don't hate Sister Wu so much.
So he changed his tone of concern: "Your husband treats you so badly, and he is an alcoholic, and he is abusive, do you just suffer it all the time? Why? Do you love him very much?"
My question suddenly opened Sister Wu's chatterbox.
She pursed her mouth: "Love him? I hate him to death now! Do you know? Not only does he drink and beat his wife, but he is also a loser! I earn money day and night outside, which is not enough for him to spoil alone! Huanxi, in fact, I was not such an unreasonable person before, I was too aggrieved at home, and I could only choose to play tricks and bully others to vent like this. Also, in fact, I also know that the clothes I sell are expensive, and you sell them fairly, so your business is good, and I am not qualified to care about you. But there is such a loser man in my family, I have no choice but to make more money. This person, once he is greedy, there is no bottom line in doing things. ”
It may be that these words have been held in Sister Wu's heart for too long.
In front of outsiders before, Sister Wu always showed a pungent and brutal appearance, using her appearance to hide her haggard heart.
She doesn't communicate with people.
Because she is also a very good and strong woman with a lot of self-esteem.
Unwilling to be sympathized.
I'd rather be hated.
But in fact, everyone wants someone to listen to them and complain.
I don't want to bear it all the time.
So now that I have seen her true situation, Sister Wu no longer conceals it and tells me all about her family affairs.
This is also a poor woman.
......
Sister Wu, like me, is a foreigner.
The difference is that I am from the countryside and Sister Wu is from the mining area.
Both of her parents worked in coal mines.
My father was a worker who went down the mine.
I work more than ten hours a day, and my whole body is black except for my teeth.
Mother in the canteen of the mining area.
Both of them earn a small income.
And they are all very busy, and they don't have much time to take care of their families.
So Sister Wu has been washing clothes, cooking, and doing all housework since she was a child.
At that time, Sister Wu didn't have any dreams, thinking that when she grew up, she would also enter the logistics work of the coal mine, and then marry a miner and have children.
Because it is a mining area, the environment is very poor.
The sky was gray, and it seemed that there would never be a sun.
The road was crushed by heavy trucks and filled with potholes.
It's like what is said in a sketch, the big pit sets the small pit, the deep pit sets the old pit, there is still water in the pit, there are nails in the water, and there is no shadow when you go in.
Therefore, when Sister Wu was a child, when she took the only minibus into the city, the bumps along the way could make people vomit out the food they ate three days ago.
But when Sister Wu graduated from secondary school and was about to get a job, the coal in the ground had been hollowed out.
Although everyone is annoyed when the coal trucks roar and shuttle every day, dangerous and scattering ash everywhere, crushing the road to the point of disappearance.
They're all saying it's too dirty.
But once there is no coal, there are no trucks on the road, and the hustle and bustle finally turns to silence.
All people feel is gloom, loneliness and despair.
There is no livelihood left.
How to live?
So I had to leave my hometown and work everywhere.
Sister Wu followed the army of workers into the city.
Before coming to the provincial capital, Sister Wu had also been to many other cities.
Waiter, housekeeper, female worker, salesperson, security, cleaning, property, tour guide...... I've done more jobs than I do.
And the reason why she was able to come to the provincial capital was because of her husband.
Sister Wu's husband and Sister Wu are fellow countrymen.
But I didn't know each other when I was in my hometown, but I met when I was working outside.
is also wandering in a foreign land, and has also tasted the warmth and coldness of the world, and suddenly met a fellow villager in a different place, which naturally has an unusual cordiality.
So they went back and forth, and the two fell in love and got married.
Although the man was not handsome and had no money.
But very industrious.
Sister Wu herself is not good-looking, but she can endure hardships.
She thought, two people working hard together, can always survive in the city, right?
After getting married, her husband found a job in the provincial capital, and Sister Wu also went to the provincial capital.
For the first few years, everything was fine.
After Sister Wu arrived in the provincial capital, she started a clothing business.
The husband also has a stable job.
Although they have been renting in an urban village, they have already begun to plan to buy their own house in the provincial capital.
I can't afford to buy an expensive one, but I can buy a remote one and a smaller one, right?
The house is broken again, but its own home.
It's one-third of an acre of land.
Having your own house in the city proves that you are no longer a passer-by in the city, but a real city person.
Even if you are wronged outside and look at your face, when you go home, it is a warm harbor.
Don't be troubled by your landlord anymore.
But then, when the husband started buying lottery tickets, things changed.
Many people buy lottery tickets with the dream of getting rich overnight.
can be exchanged for 5 million yuan for 2 yuan.
Sister Wu's husband is the same.
At first, he bought it with his co-workers.
I took 2 yuan and bought the first lottery ticket.
Luckily, it did.
Although it was not 5 million, it won 30,000.
But for Sister Wu and her wife, this is also a huge amount of money.
It's pie in the sky.
Excited, excited, rejoicing.
But this is also the beginning of the tragedy.
Sister Wu's husband didn't expect that he won 30,000 yuan for the first time he bought a lottery ticket.
It's equivalent to a year's salary.
So Sister Wu's husband began to float.
Inflated.
He thought that maybe he was a man of special luck.
It is suitable to make a fortune through the lottery.
So since there is such an easy way to make a fortune, what are you doing at work?
What are you doing, you didn't buy lottery tickets to make money quickly!
So, Sister Wu's husband began to continue to buy lottery tickets.
I hope next time I hit 100,000, 500,000, 1,000,000, 5,000,000.
Unfortunately, his luck seems to have run out after buying a lottery ticket for the first time.
Never hit the jackpot since.
Even prizes of more than 200 yuan are rarely won.
But he not only spent all the 30,000 yuan he won, but also filled a lot of money into it.
The disappointment again and again made Sister Wu's husband begin to doubt his luck.
But he didn't give up his dream of buying lottery tickets and making a fortune.
He began to calculate, using various so-called formulas to calculate the odds of winning the lottery.
Still missed.
Of course not.
Even those mathematicians can't figure out the rules of the lottery, and if you are semi-illiterate, can you rely on a pen to scribble on a piece of paper?
It's a dream.
