Stepping on the departing train, as if what happened in the previous two days was just a dream, Liao Qingmei looked down at the jade bracelet in her hand, and sighed, but unfortunately it was not.

When I returned home, the house was quiet, and there was a bowl of food on the small coal stove, because I knew that when she got home today, Liao's mother specially left it for her before she went to work.

After eating, Liao Qingmei, who couldn't stay idle, cleaned up the house and herself inside and out before going to bed, and when she woke up, it was already dark.

In the small hall, Liao's mother opened the single player and hooked woolen shoes while listening to songs, looking at the color, it should be the wool removed from Liao's father's old sweater, Liao Haoyu didn't know where to play crazy, and he hadn't gone home yet.

"Wake up?" Liao's mother glanced back at Liao Qingmei, "I left you food, my hometown is okay, are your uncles and uncles in good health?

As soon as she woke up and couldn't eat, Liao Qingmei sat next to Liao's mother and hooked the sole of her other shoe.

"It's all good, my uncle and aunt are hard-boned, Qinglan has also grown taller, my second uncle smokes more than before, what can my aunt give me, it's good for me." Liao Qingmei felt that it would be good to go home this time except for Gu Minglang.

"Hey, I don't know your aunt's temperament yet...... "Liao's mother has been in her hometown before she took her children with the army, and the relationship between the two concubines is very ordinary, and then she is far away, and it is rare to go back once a year.

However, Liao's mother has never looked down on her aunt's personality, she is too calculating, so she takes advantage of it and loves to pinch it.

Thinking of Liao Qingmei's main task of going back this time, Liao's mother put down the needle and thread, looked at her daughter's soft side face, brushed the broken hair around her ear, and asked softly, "How about the baby kiss that your grandmother said?"

"I've seen it. Liao Qingmei didn't want to mention this, so she looked around, "What about my father?"

"Your dad went to a meeting, and your brother was watching cartoons next door. Liao's mother lifted her eyelids and looked at her twice, and didn't ask again, her own daughter knew by herself, which obviously didn't want to mention, it seems that this time I didn't go back very well.

After Grandma Liao left, Liao's mother pondered for a few days, thinking about it, she still felt that her daughter should stay by her side, and the family finally moved from the countryside to the city, and she didn't have to let her marry back to the countryside.

It's not that she dislikes the poor and loves the rich, it's much worse to live in the city, and there are still well-conditioned people in the countryside, but you have to admit the convenience of living in the city, and the education problem that the countryside can't catch up.

The most important thing is that Liao's mother is reluctant to have a daughter.

The hometown can be self-sufficient in food and housing, but you have to walk more than ten kilometers to school, and the teacher's cultural level is not high.

This is also the thing that Liao's mother regrets the most, no matter how hard and tired she is, she should have taken the child over earlier.

I want her to marry into the Liao family for decades, and it has only been loosened up over the years, the child's father used to be in the army, and she guarded the child's field alone in her hometown, and the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law was difficult, and the housework and farm work were piled together, which was not enough to use herself as a mule.

I heard that the doll's parent was also a soldier, and Liao's mother really didn't want her daughter to suffer the hardships of the military family anymore, and everyone said that the military family was glorious, it was glorious! But who could see the pain behind it.

That family is said to be a big family, and she wants her Qingmei to go to the man's house to serve the family, but she doesn't agree.

"You're just going through the motions, and you're done with your milk's heart. Liao's mother put down the work in her hand and said to Liao Qingmei earnestly, "No matter whether this marriage is successful or not, Mom, I hope you will marry closer, what will happen in the future, your father and I can take care of you, if you marry far away and suffer grievances, what should you do, who will support you?"

"Hmm. Liao Qingmei replied sullenly, trying to drive away the memories that appeared in her mind involuntarily.

She doesn't want to marry at all in this life, she just wants to spend a lifetime with her parents, anyway, her brother and brother will not stay at home in the future when they marry wives and have children, even if her sister-in-law and younger siblings can't tolerate her, she is not afraid, even if she can't make a fortune if she lives one more life, but it is more than enough for her to support herself and her parents.

She planned well, but she also knew that it was unrealistic, and she only dared to think about it in her heart.

The room fell into a short silence, and Su Xiaoming's "Sea Breeze, Sea Breeze" slowly flowed out of the single player, which was the idol of Su Xiaoming, Liao Ma, who sang "The Night of the Military Port".

After humming a few words, Liao's mother talked about the gossip in the factory, "Do you remember Aunt Mei who has a production line with me?"

Liao Qingmei nodded, this Aunt Mei is also in the compound, she commutes to work with Liao's mother every day, there are six children in the family, and life is very difficult, and she often searches for things in Liao's house to subsidize the family.

"Her family Tingting is the eldest daughter, the one who has not been married in her hometown for twenty-six, and she got married last year. After singing the song, Liao's mother got up and poured down the belt and continued to listen to the sea breeze.

"She, she was so strong that she wanted to stay away from home, she didn't listen to her parents' words and married to Jiaozhou, but the man had a bad temperament and couldn't stand a lot of grievances, and now she can't go home if she wants to, your Aunt Mei is crying when she sees the sky, pitiful!"

"Hey, I blame you Aunt Mei, Tingting is such a good girl, just to let her earn a few more years of money for the family, she is detained and detained as an old girl, this girl has to marry when she is old, stay and stay to become an enemy, Tingting also doesn't want to take care of her mother's family anymore, so she married ruthlessly, hey...... After suffering hardship, I realized that in the end, my family was good, and now it is too late to regret it. ”

The topic is talking, obviously still talking about the problem of marriage, I don't know how to talk about the things in the workshop.

"The director of our workshop, it's really not a thing, he is late and leaves early, but he stares at us every day, and he will deduct money if he is a minute late, don't we have a normal scrap rate for piecework, people can't manage as long as they are scrapped, they have to deduct money, the whole person gets into the eye of money, everything is deducted, but I hate that our group doesn't know who is his dog, I want to let me know, I!"

couldn't go on with the cruel words, Liao's mother made a fierce face to show her determination, Liao Qingmei smiled, "Mom, have you been deducted again?"

Liao's mother glanced at her daughter a little embarrassed, knowing that you still said it.

"Mom, otherwise, don't do it in the factory. "Liao's mother has been doing this work for decades, there is a military factory near the station, when recruiting workers, Liao's mother did not get in, and later found a job in a small shoe factory nearby, not to mention, and often have to be angry.

I have to get up at six o'clock in the morning every day, regardless of the season, sitting on the production line is a day, I can't even take care of eating and going to the toilet when I am busy, I often use my index finger to be thick and deformed, the environment of the workshop is very bad, the machine is restless, it is like a steamer when it is hot, and it is colder than the ice cellar when it is cold.

In a small place, the leaders are all relatives and friends of the boss, ordinary people like Liao's mother will naturally be angry, Liao's mother has a good temperament, and she often endures it when she is angry, just because this job can earn the family's living expenses, so that life can be more comfortable.

Naturally, the director of the workshop did not need to say that it was a woman surnamed Zhao in the same workshop who was at odds with Liao's mother, that is, the dogleg in Liao's mother's mouth, but it has not been discovered yet.

Half a year later, because Liao's mother did a good job, she had a chance to be promoted, but she was secretly discredited, made a small report, and the quota was taken captive, and the one who replaced her was the one surnamed Zhao.

"What are you talking about, what are we going to eat if we don't go to work, you still want a new corduroy coat, what will I buy you if I don't go to work? With your father's salary, our family has to drink the northwest wind. Liao's mother glanced at Liao Qingmei, but she was very happy in her heart, this is her daughter who feels sorry for her.

"Actually, it's okay, let him buckle it, it can't be deducted much, I'm the most capable in the workshop, last year's 38 Red Flag Bearer's flag has been hanging in our group, that's all my credit." ”

Speaking of this, Liao's mother was a little proud, "I heard that this year's 38 Red Flag Bearer will go to the city to speak as a representative, what do you say I will say then." ”

"......" Although you are the 38th Red Flag bearer this year, it is your opponent who speaks on stage.

Liao Qingmei thought about it for a while, but decided to persuade Liao's mother, "Mom, you go home and open a small store, just like your old cousin and their cousins, you can usually take care of your family more, and you can earn a lot of money." ”

Liao's mother is not very happy, opening a store is said to be open can be opened? Don't have the capital? Besides, how embarrassing it is to open a store, others don't know how to pay attention to it, especially if the child's father is still in public office, it is even worse.

Liao's mother is a person who has experienced a special period, and has a deep taboo about doing business, and she doesn't realize that with the opening of the country, she is about to enter an era of laughing at poverty and not prostitution.

"My brother will enter high school in his third year of junior high school soon, and he eats cold rice for a long time at noon, which is not good for his stomach. "Liao's mother is most distressed by Liao Haoyu, Liao Qingmei's words are not wrong, in his previous life, Liao Haoyu had stomach bleeding in his sophomore year of high school and was hospitalized once, the reason was caused by eating cold rice for a long time.

Now there are early signs, and I am yelling that my stomach hurts when I am fine.

"......" mentioned her youngest son, Liao's mother was speechless, she couldn't wait to grow a few more hands to come out, so as to take care of the children at home, but she had to be disgusted with money!

"This, or not...... I'll come back every day to cook and go to work?" said Liao's mother hesitantly.

After a while, the sole of the shoe was hooked by a third, Liao Qingmei turned around, and said without thinking, "Now that you don't have any work for the New Year, you still have to run to the factory twice a day, and you go to work in the New Year, will your director let you come back?"

With the trembling strength of their workshop director, I can't wait for them to be in the workshop twenty-four hours a day, where will she come back to cook, even if she is allowed, the time to come back and forth will take at least two hours, and it will be too late at all, Liao's mother is silent.

"Mom, you have rheumatism and back pain from the last class, and you fell ill, you don't treat your body as a body, why do you have to take care of me and my brother, I don't want to have more stepmothers at such an age. Liao Qingmei smiled.

"Tsk, you stinky girl, what the hell are you talking about! Can your dad be such a person? Bah, bah...... Your mother and I are in good health, and the stinky girl will talk nonsense again, see that I don't beat you. Liao's mother gave Liao Qingmei a moment with a smile, and sighed for a while, "I'll go to class for a while, your father's rheumatism is getting worse and worse, why don't you find an old Chinese medicine doctor to prescribe some medicine, next month your cousin gets married, and our family has to follow it, hey...... At school, I went to find the teacher to see if I could get your brother to have a partner at the teacher's house. ”

Seeing that Liao Qingmei was going to persuade again, she waved her hand, "Okay, okay, don't talk about it, are you hungry or not, go and eat, don't be hungry." ”

Liao Qingmei didn't expect to be able to convince Liao's mother at once, some ideas are deep-rooted, do not touch the roots, and are not so easy to shake.

Anyway, the time is still long, and Liao Qingmei is not in a hurry.
