Her father is a person like a bandit, very domineering in Sixiang and eight villages, no one dares to mess with him, Pomegranate's mother is Pomegranate's father snatched from the neighboring village, so Pomegranate has been raised by no one to bully her since she was a child, she is also very pampered by her father, she can't work and won't deal with people.

From the conversation between the two women, Pomegranate knew that one of the two women was named Wang Shuzhen, her man was called Qin Shancai, and they had a thirteen-year-old daughter named Qin Xiaojuan, who was Pomegranate's neighbor, and the other woman was named Liu Cuilan, the wife of Qin Baoqiang, the captain of the village.

The two women talked for a while, and saw that the pomegranate had not yet woken up, and then sighed and left, this year, there is no extra time to delay, they have other things to do, it is impossible to stay here all the time.

Listening to the footsteps of the two women walking out of the courtyard, Pomegranate opened her eyes, thinking about her current condition.

She was in her time, but she had both parents and an older brother, she had a job with a good income, except for the older leftover girl who was constantly nagging and urging her parents to make her troubled, in other aspects, she was a very satisfied and happy person, but here she ......

In such an era, if you want to get out of the village, you have to go to the village office brigade to approve and seal, and at that time, everywhere is a repressive social environment and a bad social atmosphere, and materials are poor, and food and clothing are the most basic living requirements for everyone. I also had to worry about being involved in social struggles and my personal safety was not guaranteed, so it was not possible to leave this poor place to work outside, and besides, at that time, there was no work to do.

Although Pomegranate really can't accept such a reality, a poor mother was robbed by a bandit father to be a wife, and died after giving birth to a daughter, a bandit father also died in a car accident, and now she is the only one left, her health is not good, she can't do heavy work, this situation is too miserable.

But if she wants to survive, she has to accept all this she is doing, and it is always better to live than to die! Moreover, it's just that the conditions are worse, and others can live, so why can't they live themselves? Her soul is a self-reliant girl of the new era, and since fate has arranged her here, she has to live here well.

I heard that she already has a mother-in-law, her mother-in-law is still a powerful character, she is a person from the new era, she will not be bound by a marriage contract, anyway, she is only fifteen years old now, it is impossible to get married all at once, she has time to slowly get rid of this marriage contract. Although this era is chaotic, it is impossible to follow an arranged marriage, she is unwilling, and it is impossible for her in-laws to persecute her!

This year is 1976, and the college entrance examination will resume next year, and if she is admitted to university, she can leave here, anyway, there is no one else here, and after she is admitted to university, she will not come back, and at that time, the marriage contract will naturally be invalidated.

Pomegranate thought about it, although the current situation was a little miserable, but it was not so bad that there was no way to live, she swept away the depression just now, and was full of confidence in the future.

Pomegranate sat up, she had to go to see her father, and give him a linen and filial piety to see him off, although she had no feelings for him, but she had to take the body of someone else's daughter, so she had to do this filial piety for her. This father, although his reputation is not very good, seems to be very good and loving to his daughter.

Pomegranate went out of the room, and when she came to the courtyard, she looked at it, and her home was still very spacious, with three main rooms, two ear rooms, one ear room for the kitchen, and one ear room for miscellaneous items, and there was a bag of rice, some sweet potatoes and potatoes in it. That's all the food they have, father and daughter! Now she's alone, and she's enough to eat for a while.

Next to the gate is the toilet. The yard is large and there are two pomegranate trees in the middle, and it is now March and the pomegranate trees are covered with tender goose-yellow leaves. There is a stone table under the pomegranate tree, and there are four stone benches, although this house is a little dirty and old, but because of this pomegranate tree, this yard feels very quiet and warm.

This village is located on a half-hillside, the pomegranate home is at the back of the village, so it is a little remote, but fortunately, it covers a large area, the house is separated from a separate room, which raises some chickens and ducks, and then next to it, is the vegetable field of the pomegranate, although the original owner rarely does farm work, but the house is cleaned up, the chickens and ducks are also good, there are chickens and ducks laying eggs every day, pomegranate picked up two eggs in the chicken coop, there is a small wooden barrel hanging on the beam of the chicken coop, there are twenty or thirty eggs in it, and the pomegranate puts the eggs picked up into the small wooden barrel. The vegetables grown in the vegetable garden next to it are also good. Leeks, mint, beets, cabbage, verdant green, pomegranates observe, self-grown vegetables, self-raised chickens, self-sufficient, green and environmentally friendly, this day will not be too bad.

While Pomegranate was looking at the green vegetable garden, a woman's voice said behind her, "Pomegranate, have you woken up?" Are you alright? ”

Pomegranate turned around and looked, this woman is the neighbor Wang Shuzhen, Pomegranate has her memory in her mind, she is in her thirties, she is dressed cleanly, she looks smart, her skin is white and red, in the countryside, in such a difficult era, there is such a woman with a good appearance of water, Pomegranate sighed in her heart.

"Auntie!" Pomegranate greets her.

Wang Shuzhen came out of the house and carried two pots, "Pomegranate, your father...... In the Land Temple, let's go together. ”

As she spoke, Wang Shuzhen pulled the pomegranate.

Pomegranate lowered her head and walked with Wang Shuzhen, although she had no feelings for this father, but she appeared here as his daughter, and she had to adapt to such an identity.

"Child, if you want to open some, natural and man-made disasters, birth, old age, sickness and death, these are all things that there is no way to do."

"Auntie, my father...... I don't know what to do with his funeral. Pomegranate thought hard, and the original owner's memory did not have the impression of doing much funeral.

Wang Shuzhen patted Pomegranate's shoulder, "Your father did it because of road construction and collective labor, so his future affairs are all handled by the production team, the coffin has been bought, and there are two sets of old clothes and shoes, which are all ready." You don't care about these things. What you should do is to spend the last day and night with him, and when the funeral is held tomorrow, someone will tell you what to do, and you just do it. ”

Pomegranate nodded, "Thank you, aunt, I don't know anything, if there is something I haven't done well, please give me a more reminder." ”
