The mother looked at Dongmei, who was about to cry, and suddenly felt very ridiculous and said: "What should I do? Where can I find such a good in-law, not to mention that Weiguo is still commercial grain, and I can't find it with a lantern, so you can sneak into the quilt and laugh."

After saying that, the mother put on her clothes and went out to sleep in the back room. But Dongmei didn't get into the quilt to laugh, but got into the quilt and cried secretly.

On this day, Wei Guo came to Dongmei's house and took Dongmei to his house to watch the doorman.

Guanzhong customs, before getting married, the woman has to go to the man's house to see the situation of their house: how is the head door, whether it is big or not, whether the door is copper or iron, whether the yard is spacious or not spacious, how many houses, is it a tile house or a mud house????

Wei Guo and Dongmei walked along the canal all the way, and in less than half an hour, they entered Cuijia Village.

Wei Guo is in the middle of the village to the west.

Wei Guo and Dongmei entered the village from the east and arrived at the door of their homes in a short time.

Dongmei saw that the head door of Wei Guo was very small, and the door leaf was iron, which first gave people a very shabby feeling of the façade.

Before entering the door, Dongmei thought to herself, when she went to school, she remembered that the clothes Wei Guo wore were always very torn, with a lot of patches, and the cloth shoes were always very dirty, as if they had never been clean.

Wei Guo pushed open the door very gentlemanly, and Wei Guo's parents greeted him warmly.

After Dongmei and the two old men said hello, they looked around, and Dongmei was surprised that the courtyard of Wei Guo was very spacious, twice as large as the yard of ordinary farmers, there was an apple tree in front of the yard, and there was a big jujube tree in the middle of the back, which was full of branches and leaves every spring, and was full of fruit in autumn, not only that, Wei Guo also had five houses, and all of them were tile houses, only the stove room was a mud house.

And the conditions of their own family are good in Yinjia Village, and there are only three tile houses, if you put Wei Guo in their village, the conditions must be among the best, Dongmei can't help but look at the two old people with admiration, and sigh in her heart that it is really ruined, and it is not obvious at all, in today's words, it is not rich.

Three generations of poor peasants who defended the country have strong roots. I was very poor before, but it was not until the land was contracted to the household, with the diligence and steadfastness of the patriotic parents, the thrift of food and clothing, and the frugality of food, that I slowly lived my life to the front.

The family sat on the kang, and Wei Guo's parents enthusiastically brought melon seeds, peanuts, and dates to Dongmei.

After Dongmei saw melon seeds and peanuts, she couldn't help but think that the situation of defending the country was really good. (At that time, you could only eat melon seeds and peanuts during the Chinese New Year, and usually there were no at all.) ）

Wei Guo also brought Dongmei a plate of things that Dongmei didn't know from the room next to her for her to eat.

Dongmei looked at this thing, oval, long, flattened, pinched one and ate it was very sweet and delicious in her mouth, she hurriedly asked Weiguo what this thing was.

Wei Guo looked at Dongmei's delicious food and explained to her: "This is a raisin, which was specially brought back from Karamay, Xinjiang. ”

Dongmei had only eaten grapes, and had never seen raisins, let alone eaten them, so she asked Wei Guo curiously, is this thing and grapes the same kind of tree that grows?

Wei Guo explained that raisins are grapes that become raisins after they have been dried in a specific climate like Karamay.

Dongmei thinks it's amazing, there is such a delicious thing in the world. At the same time, she also thought that Karamay must be a very beautiful place.

That day, Dongmei was alone and ate most of the raisins on the plate.

After Dongmei returned home.

Dongmei's mother came up and asked Dongmei how Cui's family was, whether his parents fancy you or not, and whether they are good to you.

Dongmei also reminisced about the deliciousness of the raisins, she said that Wei Guo is very good, Wei Guo's parents are also very good, especially Wei Guo's mother, who is particularly enthusiastic, looks at herself vigorously, and also opens the shell of peanuts and melon seeds for her to eat, I can't wait to kiss her face, after marrying in the future, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law must be very good.

Dongmei's mother smiled and didn't speak, she knew that her daughter was too simple and didn't know the complicated relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, even if she was very good to you now, but once she passed the door, it would be a different matter.

At the end of February, it was warm and cold, ** has arrived, and everything has sprouted.

In a peaceful sound of firecrackers, in an atmosphere full of joy, Dongmei, who wore a red hijab, married into the country.

At that time, the wedding was very simple, there was no ring or wedding dress, a simple ceremony was held, and relatives and friends made a hole in the room, even if it was a tiebreaker.

The next day, as the new daughter-in-law, Dongmei got up early, according to the rules, she first had to knock on the door of the inner room where her parents-in-law slept, and then picked up the urinal in her in-laws' house, and then went to the backyard to pour it out. (At that time, in the countryside, because the toilet was in the backyard, it was necessary to put a urinal on the floor of the house when sleeping at night).

Then they began to clean up again, first sweeping the yard, and then using a wheel to draw water from the well, filling the entire water tank, and then making the family's breakfast, and personally bringing the breakfast into the house of the parents-in-law, and bringing it to the kang where they were, and after they had eaten, they took out the bowl and washed it off.

Then carry the water, take the dry food, pull the rack car, bring the labor tools, the family goes to work in the field, does not come back at noon, has to work for a whole day, and waits until the afternoon is numb and dark, and when she comes home, the daughter-in-law must cook first, after eating, then burn the kang for the parents-in-law, bring them water to wash, and then be busy with their own affairs.

At the end of the day, Dongmei who was tired on the kang felt that she was about to fall apart, and she fell asleep after a while.

On this day, as usual, I returned home after a day of labor. After Dongmei cooked the meal, she brought the rice into the back room where her father-in-law and mother-in-law lived, but her mother-in-law not only did not take the meal, but also did not look at Dongmei.

Dongmei was a little puzzled, she knew that her mother-in-law didn't say a word to herself today, and her face was dark for a day. This made it difficult for her to accept, compared to the enthusiasm when she didn't get married before, and the coldness now, she felt that there was a big gap.

She thought hard, not knowing what she had done wrong, or what she had done wrong, and not following the rules. Dongmei ate and washed the dishes in the stove room alone, while Wei Guo had already gone to wash and prepare for bed.

At this time, the sister-in-law walked in, and when she saw that her sister-in-law was silent, she stepped forward, put the bowl in the hot water in the back pot, and asked her sister-in-law with concern: "Sister-in-law, what's wrong, why are you unhappy?" ”

Dongmei put the meal she was eating on the board, she was very hungry, and she was not hungry anymore, she said: "I don't know what's wrong, my mother didn't give me a good face for a day, I brought her the food, and she didn't eat it, tell me what I did wrong?"

The sister-in-law found a small bench, sat with Dongmei, and said to her: "Don't be angry, mother's family law is very big, we have known this since childhood, you have to adapt, it must be something wrong with you, don't think about it, just behave well tomorrow." After saying that, the sister-in-law got up and went to her own room.

Dongmei silently stood up from the floor of the stove room and washed the family's dishes and chopsticks in the hot water in the back pot.

One day, after the family finished working in the field, before returning home, Dongmei carried some firewood picked up in the field with a basket to burn the kang when she went home.

The back basket of Wei Guo is very chic, with a thin waist, a flared mouth, a square bottom, and a relatively large volume.

Dong Meiduo carried some firewood, and thought happily in her heart, these firewood is expected to be able to burn the kang for two days.

But when she was full of firewood, she had just walked two steps when she was stopped by her mother-in-law from behind. The mother-in-law put down the hoe in her hand and asked her sharply, "What are you doing filling the back basket so full?" I don't know if the back basket is too heavy and the tie is easy to break?"

Dongmei touched the tie of the back basket and felt that it was very strong and should not break, so she replied to her mother-in-law and said, "This tie is very strong, how can it be broken." ”

When the mother-in-law heard this, she was angry, thinking that you, a daughter-in-law who had just passed the door, dared to speak up to her mother-in-law's mouth, so she raised her voice and said: "You can still do it, I have been carrying this basket for so many years, don't I know?"

Dongmei heard her mother-in-law's scolding tone, and she felt very uncomfortable, so she said: "How much is a back basket worth, if the tie is broken, let's repair it, it will cost more than a dime." ”

Wei Guo's mother is actually a very powerful woman, not only very strict with her children, but also strict with her daughter-in-law, thinking that a junior dares to talk back to the elders continuously, so she scolded Dongmei and said: "You go back for me, put down the back basket, don't let me see you again." ”

At this time, Wei Guo, standing between his mother and daughter-in-law, lowered his head helplessly, and could only let his mother's lesson to his daughter-in-law.

Dongmei was angry, put the basket on the ground, and walked in the direction of home without looking back, and heard her mother-in-law continue to scold her in the back as she walked.

When she went back that day, Dongmei, who was very tired and hungry, did not eat, nor burned the kang, lying on the cold kang, her tears slowly flowing down her cheeks.

Wei Guo brought in a bowl of rice for Dongmei to eat. Dongmei wiped a handful of tears and still lay on the bed without speaking. Wei Guo couldn't do it, sat on the edge of the kang and sighed heavily.

Lying on the kang for an hour, Dongmei still got off the kang, she knew that now in this family, if she didn't burn the kang as the new daughter-in-law, no one would burn the kang, she warmed all the kang in the house with tears in her eyes.

In the middle of the night, Dongmei, who was lying on the bed, couldn't sleep over and over, she didn't feel angry with her mother-in-law, because her mother told her daughter-in-law who had just entered the door, not to mention that she was angry, it was normal to be beaten. The daughter-in-law of the Junhai family in the east of her village was beaten by her mother-in-law and father-in-law several times.

Dongmei is wronged in this family, her mother-in-law has to take care of everything, big and small, no matter how big or small, and everything must be according to her thoughts and ideas, otherwise she will be furious, Dongmei couldn't help but sigh.

Dongmei, who sighed, felt that she was already very sleepy, and just as she was about to go to bed, she heard Wei Guo, who was sleeping next to her, speak and ask her, "Why are you sighing?"

Dongmei thought that Wei Guo, who was in the middle of the night, probably fell asleep a long time ago, and must have been talking in his sleep, so she ignored him. But I never thought about it, Wei Guo said again: "Don't be angry, my winter vacation is coming, do you want to go to Karamay, Xinjiang with me?"

At this time, Dongmei was convinced that Wei Guo did not talk in his dreams. Actually, Wei Guo knew that Dongmei hadn't slept all the time, so he had been waking up with Dongmei.

Dongmei turned over, looked at Wei Guo, who was facing her, and said, "You guy, you don't sleep in the middle of the night, and suddenly you want to scare people to death?"

Wei Guo deliberately lowered his voice, and said in a terrifying voice: "Didn't you sleep too." ”

Dongmei was amused by Wei Guo, she felt that Wei Guo's appearance of learning ghosts was not scary at all, but very funny, so she asked Wei Guodao, "What did you just say?"

Wei Guo smiled and said: "I'm about to go on vacation, you can go to Xinjiang with me, go to Karamay, my work unit." ”

Dongmei hadn't thought about going so far away, she said: "If I go there, you are all commercial grain, what can you do if you don't want me as a farmer?"

Wei Guo pulled up the quilt on Dongmei's body, covered Dongmei more tightly, and said: "There are many farmers, one commercial grain is matched with one peasant." ”

Dongmei asked Weiguo in surprise: "Ah? Can a peasant also be a worker? What does it mean that a commodity grain is matched with a peasant?"

Wei Guo explained carefully: "There are few female colleagues and many male colleagues in the unit, and the proportion is unbalanced. The male colleagues all went back to their hometown to find their daughters-in-law, and after they got married, they all received them, don't worry, there are many girls like you, all from the countryside. ”

Dongmei thought about it, and deliberately teased Weiguo and said, "So that's the case, you can't find your daughter-in-law, that's why you found me, right?"

When Wei Guo looked at it, he thought that Dongmei's mood was about to improve, but because of his words, she was in a bad mood, so she said apologetically: "No, no, I have liked you since I was a child, and I have had a crush on you for many years. Karamay is good, there are many melons and fruits, and they are sweet and delicious, especially raisins, you can't eat enough of them. ”

Hearing Wei Guo say this, Dong Mei became interested, and at the same time felt glad that she was no longer angry with her mother-in-law, so she asked Wei Guodao: "Then when will we leave?"

Wei Guo turned over, lay flat and said, "It's early, there are still many days." ”

Dongmei asked anxiously: "It's early, when will you leave?" ”

Wei Guo closed his eyes and looked sleepy and said, "Pack up your things tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow you will leave with me to Karamay, Xinjiang." ”

Dongmei called out "ah" and said, "It's going too fast, I'm not mentally prepared yet." ”
