Chapter 313 A sad pear tree presses a begonia
By October, Li Meng already had five branches in his hands, which is a later story, so I won't mention it for the time being.
In the summer vacation, Li Liang spent about ten days giving advice to his sister, and after that, he no longer cared about the affairs of his sister's store, and enjoyed his rare summer vacation time with peace of mind.
In the second half of the year, Li Liang will be in his second year of high school. At present, there are only two grades in high school, the first and second years of high school, and the second year of high school is the graduates of the current era! When the time comes, the school will definitely be stricter in managing the students in the second year of high school!
Before this holiday, Wei Sumei told her classmates at the class meeting that when the next semester begins, she hopes that everyone will bring all the food they eat for a month and be ready to live a life of only two days off a month!
When the students heard the news, they naturally wailed!
Li Liang was no exception, because he got a small message from Wei Sumei that the privilege he had obtained this semester without having to stay at school on Saturdays to make up classes would be taken back by the school next semester. Next semester, he still wants to have a full weekend every week, which is already impossible!
On this day, Li Liang made an appointment with Chenchen and Zhang Junjie to go to Zhang Junjie's grandmother's house to play.
In the summer of the year before last, when Li Liang was just reborn, Chen Chunhua listened to Li Liang's suggestion and opened the first store near the cement factory. Either go to the store to play, or go to Chenchen's grandmother's house, and go down to the pond to fish and fish for lobsters with several cousins of Chenchen's grandmother's house, Chen Ze, Chen Tao and others.
Especially the time I went to the bamboo forest with them to dig bamboo rats, I remember it deeply!
Since last year, since Chen Chunhua returned to the county seat, Li Liang rarely went there to play.
Chenchen took her younger brother Zhang Junjie to have breakfast at home, and then rode a bicycle to the downstairs of Li Liang's house.
"Liangzi, come down!" Chenchen shouted.
"Brother Liang, come down quickly!" This is Zhang Junjie's voice!
Wang Xiulan, who was busy recording at the supermarket checkout counter on the first floor, heard the voices of Chenchen's sister and brother, walked out of the store with a smile, and said with a smile: "Chenchen, Junjie, go upstairs and sit." When I came down to open the shop, Ryoko hadn't gotten up yet!"
"Okay, Auntie!"
Chenchen and Zhang Junjie ran upstairs, and when Heizi, who was lying at the corner of the stairwell on the second floor, saw their sister and brother go upstairs, they didn't bark, but glanced at them both lazily, and waged their tails more frequently.
In the hot summer, even Kuroko doesn't want to move!
The two sisters and brothers arrived at the living room of Li Liang's house, and Li Liang was still squatting in the bathroom. He heard Chenchen and Junjie's voices, and said, "Chenchen, Junjie, you blow down the fan first, and we'll set off when I finish going to the toilet!"
When Li Liang was busy, Li Liang went to the supermarket downstairs, filled two catties of red dates, one catty of longan, and took two bottles of black chicken wine in a bag. It's been a long time since I've been to Chenchen's grandmother's house, Li Liang is bringing gifts to Chenchen's grandparents and grandmothers!
After Li Liang and Chenchen got married in their previous lives, every time they went to Chenchen's grandparents' house, the two of them would kill the local chickens in the family to entertain Li Liang, and they were very good to Li Liang and Chenchen!
Zhang Junjie saw what Li Liang was carrying, and said a little greedily: "Brother Liang, Chen Tao likes to eat sugar the most!"
In fact, he likes to eat sugar, but Junjie slyly pushed it on Chen Tao, who was not present!
Li Liang smiled knowingly and said, "Okay, then I'll go and decorate some sugar!"
Li Liang rode his sister Li Meng's bicycle carrying Zhang Junjie, and Chenchen rode her own bicycle, and the two of them rode side by side in the direction of the west of the city!
When she arrived in the village, Chenchen's grandmother Gu Yuemei was really happy!
She said with a little reproach: "Liangzi, you come to grandma's place to play, just come directly, don't bring anything in the future!"
Li Liang smiled: "This is my filial piety to you and my grandfather!"
Chenchen's grandfather, Chen Sanbai, couldn't be idle, and he heard his grandmother say that he had gone up the mountain with a woodcutter early in the morning!
Chen Ze and Chen Tao were not at home, they also had breakfast early in the morning and went to the field to water the crops!
Their parents, Chen Huatang, and their family originally rented a shop from Chen Chunhua to do a breakfast shop business, but now the business is getting better and better, and they are no longer just making breakfast.
Usually busy with breakfast, the couple will also process yuba in the store. Yuba is a traditional ingredient that the people like to eat, since the two of them made this living, the situation of the family has improved a lot, I heard Mrs. Gu said, recently the two sons have plans to build a new house!
"Chenchen, Junjie, let's go to the field to see Chen Ze and Chen Tao!" Li Liang proposed.
The brothers Chen Ze and Chen Tao were not at home, and Li Liang felt very bored staying under the persimmon tree in the yard!
The weather is hot, and the trees are chirping vigorously, which makes people very irritable!
Gu Yuemei stopped: "Liangzi, Chenchen, you still don't go! Looking at the sun, it is very vicious, I estimate that Chen Ze and Chen Tao will go home soon! Usually the two of them go home to rest at this time!"
Zhang Junjie couldn't sit still, he proposed: "Brother Liang, sister, why don't the three of us fight the landlord!"
Li Liang's eyes lit up, this is a good idea!
In his previous life, after graduating from the teacher college, he was assigned to the Central Primary School of Xima Township. At that time, the days were really boring, at that time he had just confirmed his relationship with Chenchen, but Chenchen was working in the county seat at that time, and it was inconvenient for Xima Township to return to the county seat, and Li Liang had to wait until the weekend to return to the city once.
Staying in the teacher's dormitory at night at the school is really a bit of a sleepless feeling!
Fortunately, he was not the only teacher living in the teacher's dormitory at that time! At that time, there were a few teachers who had not yet started a family, and when they were fine at night, several of them often met together to fight the landlord.
"Okay!"
Zhang Junjie asked his grandmother for an old deck of playing cards, and the three of them sat around the table under the persimmon tree and began to fight the landlord.
Gu Yuemei saw that the three teenagers were playing cards, she went to the kitchen to boil a big pot of hot water silently, and then took advantage of an old hen in the yard to catch it and wipe her neck with a knife!
Li Liang and the three of them played cards happily, until they heard the old hen's wailing and dying struggle, only to find out that the grandmother had actually killed a chicken!
"Grandma, don't be so polite!"
Gu Yuemei said with a smile: "You are in the city, and you don't raise chickens at home! Our old hens raised in the countryside are nutritious! You will eat more chicken and drink chicken soup later!"
"Grandma, you're so nice!" Zhang Junjie's sycophant was picked up in time!
Gu Yuemei smiled and went to work!
Li Liang and the others were playing cards, and the brothers Chen Ze and Chen Tao were wearing two half-worn straw hats and carrying a bucket for scooping water!
"Brother Liang, Sister Chenchen, why are you here?" Chen Ze and Chen Tao put down the things in their hands, washed their hands and feet at the well, and said with a smile.
Zhang Junjie said with a little dissatisfaction: "Taotao, there is still me!"
Zhang Junjie and Chen Tao were born in the same year, Zhang Junjie is older than Chen Tao!
Chen Tao touched Zhang Junjie's head with his sun-tanned hand with a smile, and said with a smile: "You are smaller than me, why do you want me to greet you!"
"Cut, what do you think this is?" Zhang Junjie took out a piece of white rabbit toffee brought by Li Liang in his hand, and he tempted Chen Tao and said, "Do you want to eat it?"
"Brother Jie!" Chen Tao was very simple!
"Eh!" Zhang Junjie replied, and then stuffed the sugar in his hand into Chen Tao's hand!
There are too many people and they can't play landlords, so Chen Tao proposed to play with sharp bags!
Jian Bao is not a fried bag, but a kind of poker play popular in central and southern Jiangxi. This kind of card dinner, the number of people is relatively small, a deck of cards can be played by three people, four, five, six, or even seven people. And the more people in the case of the more exciting the play, more people, each person has fewer cards in their hands, often a pair of garbage cards can punch a dozen more cards!
The five-and-a-half-grown teenagers rearranged their positions and began to play with the five-person tip bag!
While playing, talking, and talking, Chen Ze talked about a recent gossip in the village!
The protagonist of this gossip, Li Liang already knows, is the old soldier Chen Zhuguo who was captured in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea in the original village.
Li Liang was very sympathetic to the injured and captured Chen Zhuguo at that time, and once went to visit Chen Zhuguo with Zhang Meng with a barrel of oil, a piece of pork belly and a bag of rice, and also helped him clean up!
Hearing Chen Ze mention Chen Zhuguo, Li Haoqi asked, "Uncle Chen, what's wrong with him?"
"He's married to a twenty-year-old daughter-in-law!"
"Huh?"
That's big news!
In Li Liang's memory, Chen Zhuguo should be more than ten years older than Chen Chunhua, and now he should be in his fifties. After he was captured and returned to China, he has been looked down upon by the villagers, and the work is the least, and the grain is the worst. The poor family can't open the pot, and after the death of his parents, even the only brother doesn't have anything to do with him!
How could an old bachelor like him marry a daughter-in-law, and she was a twenty-year-old daughter-in-law?
"What the hell is going on?"
"I know, I know, I'll say!" Chen Tao is a bit similar to Zhang Junjie, his mouth is very fast!
In his description, Li Liang learned the ins and outs of this matter!
So that's what happened!
In recent years, because there are more educated youths from all over the country who have returned to the city, and in recent years, junior and senior high school graduates have not been admitted to technical secondary schools, and there are many students who are unemployed at home in universities. As soon as there are more of these two kinds of people, the public order in society will be affected!
This is true not only in the city, but also in the countryside!
Since the second half of the year before last, the rural areas of Hekang County began to divide their fields into households, and the peasants who had been working in the brigade to grind foreign workers began to work hard in their own fields, so that the grain they planted was bumper and the grain was too much to eat!
However, the problem that followed also arose, that is, there was a surplus of labor in the rural areas, and the surplus labor force could not be settled.
In the early 80s, our country was just in the early stage of reform and opening up, and coastal cities were still in the initial stage of attracting investment, and the number of migrant workers accepted was limited. As a result, this part of the surplus labor force in the rural areas has become a factor of social instability! These people, mainly young people, have nothing to do in the rural areas and often do things like stealing chickens and touching dogs!
Chen Zhuguo's little daughter-in-law is a victim of this social status quo.
Her name is Gong Ruihong, her nickname is Xiaohong, she was originally a girl to be married in the next village, and she had been engaged to a young man from the same township through a matchmaker!
One day at the beginning of this year, Xiaohong carried a basket of food to deliver food to her parents, brother and sister-in-law who were busy in the fields!
This is the path she has been walking since she was a child, so there is nothing to be afraid of!
Who knew that day, it was so coincidental. Two second-rate people in their early 20s in the village, I don't know where they found a book explaining physiological knowledge, they looked at the black and white pictures about female reproductive organs on it, they were curious, and saw Xiaohong alone carrying a basket of meals passing by Xiaohong, the two of them were anxious, and their brains were hot, so they dragged Xiaohong to the thatch, and Xiaohong was harmed!
Xiaohong is a weak woman with little strength, she struggles hard, but it's a pity that she has managed two young and strong second-rate youths. Originally, the two second-rate sons were still going to rape first and then kill, but Xiaohong's brother saw that his sister had not come to the field to deliver food for a long time, and he went home from the field to get food, and heard his sister's cry for help, which scared away the two second-rate sons who were committing violence!
It didn't take long for the police station to catch these two second-rate sons, and the court quickly sentenced them, one for 15 years and the other for 12 years!
However, Xiaohong's fortunes took a turn for the worse. First of all, the family who was engaged to her, heard that Xiaohong was harmed, and quit the marriage at a very fast speed!
Then there are the rumors in the surrounding villages, and the pointing and pointing on the road! These things may be nothing for the new women of later generations, and it is a big deal to change the work and living environment, and slowly come out of the shadows.
However, it is now the early 80s, and for a little rural girl who does not have much culture and knowledge, how can she have the ability to change her environment?
Fortunately, her parents and sister-in-law were very considerate of her, and took care of her carefully at home, which slowly changed Xiaohong's original heart of seeking death.
Unexpectedly, one day, when Xiaohong went to hug her 3 or 4-year-old niece, a disgusted sentence suddenly came out of the little niece's mouth: "I don't want you to hug, you are dirty!"
A 'dirty' shattered all the strength in Xiaohong's heart!
Her sister-in-law heard her daughter's words at that time, and taught her daughter a hard lesson with a broom, forcing the little girl to apologize to her aunt!
Xiaohong responded with a smile at the time, and asked her sister-in-law not to be like a child!
At that time, her parents were relieved, thinking that their daughter really didn't take it to heart!
Unexpectedly, that night, when the family had fallen asleep, Xiaohong quietly opened the door of her yard and ran to a large pond at the head of the village, hesitated by the pond for a long time, and finally jumped into the pond with a thud!
This big pond is an old pond that has accumulated for many years, and the water in it is extremely deep, and in the middle of the night, Xiaohong, a female baby who does not know how to swim, jumps into it, and it is almost dead and alive!
