Chapter 4 The ghost doll of the Su family
The sixties were a very special era, and many people in later generations were reluctant to mention it.
Not only because of the special social environment, but also because of the unforgettable hunger!
However, Su Ru felt that the time for her rebirth was okay, fortunately for the three years when there were no natural disasters, otherwise she was really not sure if she could survive it.
The pain of starvation is so terrible that anyone who has not experienced it will never know what it feels like to tear off their own flesh and eat it.
Even in a place like Dongxiang, where the land is still rich, there are still people who were starved to death in those years and died by eating Guanyin soil.
Although 66 to 76 was also a special period that made people smell and change, compared to the days of those years, at least as long as you work hard, you will not starve to death.
For the common people who have experienced the catastrophe, as long as they can fill their stomachs, then who is their benefactor.
So even if there are many tragedies in this period, it is no different for them rural farmers.
Although most of the villagers still envy those who eat commercial grain in the city, it is not without benefits in the countryside.
At least now the grain is in their own hands, and as long as part of the pigs, cattle, sheep, chickens and ducks are handed over, they can always taste meat.
Although life is a little harder, at least they are alive and well.
Dongxiang is located at the junction of the north and south, but because of the surrounding mountains and forests, the transportation is not developed.
Luckily, it's not too far from town, and it's only an hour and a half hike.
And because there is also a veteran of the Anti-Japanese War in Dongxiang, Mr. Su, the county also built a relatively flat path a few years ago, for which everyone in the village is very grateful to the old man.
Their Su family is also a figure with a head and a face in Dongxiang.
Even if the township chief and secretary see the children of their Su family, they will have more smiling faces.
Not to mention that there are still a few people in the Su family who are soldiers in the army, in the eyes of the Dongxiang people, the Su family is almost as powerful as those landlords in the past.
But the Su family is really rooted, but it is not comparable to the current black five categories.
Coming back from the old house, Zhang Xinghua couldn't help crying quietly when she hugged Su Ru.
Su Jianwu naturally felt uncomfortable when he saw his daughter-in-law like this.
But what could he do?
He is the third, although he is also a son, but he is in an awkward position in the ranking, which also leads to being the most ignored at home.
Su Jianwu's eyes were red, and he felt uncomfortable, so he came over and hugged the mother and daughter in his arms, and sighed sullenly, "I'm sorry Xinghua, I'm so useless, you suffered with me." ”
Zhang Xinghua wiped her tears and choked up, "I just feel uncomfortable in my heart, I know your mother doesn't like Yaya, but people say it's feudal superstition, Yaya has grown so big, and I haven't seen anyone she has overcome, why can't she get along with our daughter?"
Su Jianwu sighed, he naturally didn't believe in cows, ghosts, snakes, and gods.
I can't bear the old lady's letter to the old man.
Su Ru was born on a bad day, it was the fifteenth day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar, commonly known as the Ghost Festival.
It's okay if she was born during the day, but when she was born, she was not only born prematurely, but also in the middle of the night.
There are not many people in Dongxiang who believe in ghosts and gods, and on the day she was born, many people in the township secretly said that she was a ghost doll with a hard life.
As soon as Mrs. Su heard this, she had to do it, and she called for them to throw Su Ru into the small river ditch, and they must not let a ghost doll restrain their Su family.
But Zhang Xinghua was not happy, her mother's family came forward for this matter, and personally went to Dongxiang to teach the old lady a lesson.
If it weren't for the tough attitude of the Zhang family at that time, I was afraid that Su Ru would really be thrown into Xiaohegou and drowned.
But even if she wasn't lost, the old lady didn't like her, and when she fell down, she shouted that it was Su Ruke who was hers.
If Zhang Xinghua hadn't tightened her belt with Su Jianwu in those three years, I was afraid that Su Ru would have starved to death!
Although Su Ru still has a grudge against her father in her previous life, she can see that Su Jianwu's eyes are red when she sees a big man, and she feels uncomfortable.
The relationship between parents is too good.
For his father, Zhang Xinghua is even more important than his life.
The relationship between the two is a love that Su Ru has never been able to understand, but it does not prevent her from being very envious.
In the previous life, my mother fell down the hill and hit a sharp stone on her head, causing her to choke before she could reach the health center.
Since then, the father has changed.
The man, who had been a temper, became more and more silent, began to drink heavily, and treated their brothers and sisters without asking.
The old lady asked him to marry a pretty widow in the village, and he was also a mess, no different from a rotten drunkard, as if his mother died, and he died with him.
And then ......
Recalling the events of her previous life, Su Ru pursed her lips and hugged Zhang Xinghua's neck tightly.
In their previous life, their family didn't end well.
The eldest brother died young on the battlefield, the second brother was arrested by the public security and knocked on the head because of the old lady's slander, and the younger brother was also found by the widow's stepmother who didn't know where to go, and she also had a younger sister, who was also sold to an old cripple as a daughter-in-law under the joint efforts of the widow and the old lady!
And what about her?
Instead of obeying the marriage arranged by the widow and the old lady like her sister, she ran away with the money.
Tired of being oppressed and blinded outside, she finally earned a family business but was ruined by the old lady who heard the news!
Su Ru's dark eyes were dark with a thick gloom.
She is different from her mother, what is called a loss is a blessing? That is called stupidity!
Therefore, even if she was killed in the previous life, the old lady and the widow would not get her property, and the money was clearly stated in her will long ago, and all of it was donated to the Red Cross!
And in this life, she will not let her mother die no matter what, as long as her mother is there, that vicious widow will not want to enter her door!
As for Su Jianwu......
His mother is not dead, and he should not be as muddy as he was in his previous life!
Seeing Su Jianwu's cautious appearance of hugging their mother and daughter, Su Ru sighed secretly, but still relaxed, and called 'Dad' softly.
Su Jianwu's eyes were red, and he hugged her and kissed her fiercely on the face, "Yaya, with your father in the future, no one will dare to bully you!"
Su Ru pouted and didn't believe what he said.
But he still nodded obediently, lying in his father's arms, but his heart was more stunned.
It had been years since she had felt her father's love for years.
In this life, their family will be guarded by her!
