You should also see that my in-laws' family used to be a famous family, but it's a pity to catch up with such a world. If it weren't for that, I wouldn't have been able to get through this door.
The two old men accumulated virtue and did good deeds all their lives, and gave birth to a son, a daughter and two children, but unfortunately their lives were not good.
My man, who is educated and capable, just can't get up with the second elder, he went to school outside since he was a child, and he never returned home easily. ”
During the Anti-Japanese War in 1940, his son, who had been away from home for six or seven years, suddenly came back with the Lu Army. He first joined the Cheng Road Army and then joined the Cheng Road Army, and he was also reused, and he was an SN.
The second elder was very happy to see that his son had a good future, and he obeyed his son's words and took the initiative to donate money and materials to support the anti-Japanese war. is the same, looking forward to the marriage and childbirth of his son.
It's a pity that the son is bent on revolution and has no intention of getting married, but he has no objection to his parents giving him control.
The two old men were busy for half a year, and they didn't find a suitable one for their son. After all, my son is twenty-five years old, which was considered overage at that time, and it was difficult to find the right person.
Suddenly, the troops were about to retreat, and the old man was anxious, and he planned to give his son a concubine first, so he remembered her as a maid for his daughter. Smart and capable, loyal and honest, and not dragged down by his family.
told his son that his son resolutely disagreed with taking a concubine, but agreed to get married, and he didn't think she was a maid.
The second elder couldn't help his son, so he had to agree, and he gave them a hasty wedding that night. The next day, her husband went with the troops, when she was 17 years old.
After getting married, her husband left, and for 10 years, she was at home to serve the elderly. Who knew that the husband who was looking forward to coming back brought the news of divorce.
It turned out that the husband went all the way south with the army and fought to Yunnan. After liberation, he was arranged to serve in the local N, and had a revolutionary love with a female staff member, came back to divorce and took the second elder to Yunnan.
The two old men were worried about their daughters and did not agree. did not prevent the two from divorcing, there was only one request, the son did not want a daughter-in-law, and the second elder recognized this daughter-in-law. As long as she wants, she will not leave home for divorce.
Actually, the main thing is to give her a town hukou. The husband's position can change the whole family to an urban hukou.
Although her hukou has changed, she is old, uneducated, and has two old people. After liberation, the servants in the family were all let go, and the old man was used to enjoying it and would not do anything. The sister-in-law's three-inch golden lotus, coupled with the special situation of her in-law's family, has a slight autism, so she didn't go out to work and stayed at home to serve the elderly.
Outsiders persuaded her that others divorced and did not leave home for the sake of their children, and you don't have a son and a daughter, what to keep for him.
But she has lived in this family for more than 20 years and has developed feelings with her family. The old man was also reasonable, saying when she met the right person and when she left, and the old man would marry her as a daughter.
She stayed in this home for more than ten years, and she didn't meet a suitable family, so she lived with the old man and sister-in-law.
When it comes to her sister-in-law, Grandma Yang is even more embarrassed. In fact, her sister-in-law is three years older than her, and her sister-in-law is fifteen engaged, and she is looking for the right person. The man went out after getting engaged, and he never returned, and he didn't even hear from him. In the chaotic years, her brother also asked someone to investigate, but he didn't get a letter.
dragged on until the liberation, and no one came back, and people speculated that they either went to N or died in battle, and her in-laws also sent a letter to her to marry another. But she didn't know what to think, she just couldn't twist this bend, and she had to be guarded by the man when she died. In this way, a family of four has passed all these years.
n At the beginning, her divorced husband was betrayed by the pillow man, and it was revealed that he had participated in nn, and the family was also a big landowner. Fortunately, these husbands' files are recorded, and they are quite clear.
However, he was angry and hateful, coupled with the problems he fell in the war, he was sick, paralyzed in bed, and couldn't take care of himself. When her wife saw it, she immediately filed for divorce, and the two had no children, but they were clean.
After the divorce, the husband was disheartened and proposed to the organization to return to his hometown and live with his family. Grandma Yang was afraid of the embarrassment of living together, so she took the initiative to ask to leave.
The second elder and sister-in-law both did her job and begged her to stay. The main reason is that she is afraid that she will suffer outside, after all, their life is still guaranteed. Despite the social turmoil, their family was considered a hero of the revolution, and their son's position was also considered a high-ranking cadre.
After her husband came back, she was serving inside and out, and she could have found a nanny, but the family was used to being clean, so she didn't find anyone and let her receive the nanny's money.
After a long time, for the sake of convenience, the two went through the remarriage procedures again. It wasn't until 73 that her husband died. The mother-in-law sent the white-haired man to the black-haired man, and she was also paralyzed in bed after a serious illness.
Having lost her husband's income, the family of four sat on the mountain, life began to be difficult, and her mother-in-law's illness was inseparable from medicine. The old man began to sell his property, and many things could not be seen, so they were disposed of in the black market.
After a long time, Grandma Yang saw the doorway, and she followed suit, pouring some small things, the income was okay, at least the family's life was guaranteed.
The old man has helped people a lot over the years, has good popularity, and with the prestige of her husband, no one has ever troubled her.
Listening to the old man's words, grandma also cried, thinking that it might be something that caused grandma's own sadness. But compared to Grandma Yang, Grandma is much luckier.
"Look at me, patronizing and gossiping, making you sad, I also forgot to pour water for you, the tea is cold and you can't drink it, can you drink it, do you see it cold?" Grandma Yang refilled the boiling water in the teapot.
Grandma picked up the teacup and took a sip, "Just drink it, it's hot and cold." Yoyo pulled down his grandmother and signaled that there was something in the bag. Grandma looked at it, took out a packet of candy, and handed it to her.
"Sister, it's such a sugar, look at it. ”
Grandma Yang opened the paper bag, looked at it carefully for a while, poured some more into the cup, washed it with boiling water, and took it up and tasted a few sips.
"Girl, your brown sugar is good, the taste is right, and the sweetness is high. I want all your goods, two and one pounds a piece, do you think this price is okay?"
"Okay, I'll send it to you tomorrow, where will we deliver it?" asked her.
"Do you remember to live at my house, if you remember, send it directly here, I'll wait for you at home. "Grandma Yang is really bold and does this directly at home.
"Okay, I'll go back, and we'll talk again tomorrow." Grandma said goodbye and led you out.
Grandma Yang grabbed a handful of candy cubes for Youyou, put them in her clothes pocket, and sent the two out of the alley.
