Chapter 7: A Tale of Sadness
Sadness flashed in Lu Yun's eyes. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info The whole story is too sad.
My mother is an educated youth in the countryside, her family is in Haicheng, my grandfather is a university professor, and my grandmother is an ordinary housewife. My grandmother gave birth to three children: my aunt was the eldest, my mother was the second, and my youngest was my uncle.
My grandfather, grandmother and uncle died before they survived the catastrophe.
My mother responded to the call to go to the mountains and go to the countryside, and my aunt married early and was able to stay in Haicheng.
When she was young, her mother was very good-looking, beautiful and educated, and she had a gentle taste, and she attracted a lot of covetous eyes as soon as she came to this poor country where the transportation was very inconvenient.
Uncle Lu also fell in love with his mother at that time, and under his pursuit and protection, his mother finally agreed to his marriage proposal, but hatefully, at this time, Chen Juxiang used despicable means to lure her mother to her house and drugged her son, who is her biological father, to get her mother.
My mother was pregnant, and I was coaxed by the mother and son to marry with tears in her eyes. Her miserable days began after giving birth to her. His biological father is stupid and filial, has no opinions, and listens to his mother no matter what is right or wrong. It's just that his wife is a vicious woman who is selfish to the core.
Her favorite thing to do is to provoke her son to beat his wife and children through all kinds of trivial things, and then condescendingly put out her mother-in-law's money in front of her daughter-in-law, asking her to kowtow and make amends.
So later, at my father's funeral, my mother not only didn't cry, but also sneered. At that time, she was only four years old, and because every time she was beaten, her mother protected her with all her might, so she "didn't remember the beating" at all.
So Chen Juxiang, the "grandmother", intimidated her in front of her in all kinds of ways, and she listened to her mother's bad words. So she has hated her mother and Uncle Lu in her heart since she was a child, and she followed Chen Juxiang's instructions, while watching her mother tired, she didn't help and sabotage. She did everything she could do to make her mother angry. Whenever there are some delicious and useful things at home, she will not forget Chen Juxiang's instructions to report to her to show that she has "filial piety".
The most tragic thing is this scene when my mother remarried.
Under her "resistance", my mother gave in again. In a short period of time, my mother is old and does not look good.
Later, my mother died, and she fell off a cliff while chopping wood. She became an orphan. Everything in the house was emptied, and even the new clothes and cotton clothes that her mother made for her disappeared. She had nothing to eat, no cotton clothes to wear, no quilt to cover.
She was only eight years old, cold and hungry, and found the "grandmother" who kept saying that she loved her the most. As a result, her "grandmother" closed the door and did not let her enter, and said that only the juniors were filial to the old, and there was no small one to drag down the old.
In the end, she was so hungry that she could only dig grass roots and pick the bark to gnaw on her hunger. The people in the village couldn't see it, so they finally lived in their grandmother's house with the intervention of the village cadres.
At her grandmother's house, she lived in a haystack in the stove room, and built a broken mattress that her uncle and aunt didn't want. The clothes picked up by the aunt's niece and niece are leftover. Because the conditions of the uncle's aunt's house are good, the cousin's remaining clothes are slightly stronger, and she is sent to her aunt's mother's house when it is not her turn.
If you want to say that the above ones can still make her bear. So in addition to having to do a lot of work every day to eat a few bites of thin leftovers, the frequent beatings and scolding made her feel frightened.
It was the darkest day in her memory, there was endless work every day, she couldn't stop for a while, and she had to be beaten and scolded for every unfavorable movement. Even if she didn't do anything wrong, she might be any person who passed by to see her unpleasantly anytime, a slap or a kick directly over, and she was lucky to be beaten twice.
Going to school has become a luxury, she has been in the second grade, she was forced to drop out of school the moment she entered her grandmother's house, the village cadres don't care about this, she is not the only child who does not go to school in the countryside, even if she is eager to return to the classroom, it is useless, she can only watch her cousin and cousin carry a schoolbag to school every day, the schoolbag that the cousin is using is still a small schoolbag with lace that her mother sewed for her.
Such days lasted for half a year. At this time, she realized how happy she was when her mother was there.
Just when she was almost desperate, her aunt came.
My aunt paid a lot of money to take her.
As soon as she left the village, her aunt told her the truth, and she would come because Uncle Lu came to the door and begged her to come. There is only one aunt left in my mother's mother's family, and my aunt's life is also tight, even if she has a heart, she is really powerless.
My aunt said that her visit this time included the round-trip travel expenses and the benefit fee for her grandmother's family, and all the expenses were with the money given by Uncle Lu, and her household registration would fall on her aunt's house in the future, but she wanted to live with Uncle Lu and rely on Uncle Lu to support her.
Following Uncle Lu, she was actually afraid in her heart. But no matter how scared she was, she didn't let her go back to her grandmother's house, which made her feel afraid.
To her surprise, she seemed to have returned to the time when her mother was there in the days when she followed Uncle Lu. Uncle Lu never beat and scolded her, and he didn't even say a word to her. In addition to never giving her a smile, Uncle Lu is really nice to her.
For her, Uncle Lu even left his hometown to stay in his aunt's city to do odd jobs to support her, he was frugal but willing to give her good, and kept her for college until she graduated from college.
After graduating from university, she took the civil service exam and had a good job that her classmates envied, and she could finally support Uncle Lu, but at this time she knew that Uncle Lu had actually been terminally ill for some days.
In order not to drag her down, Uncle Lu kept it a secret and supported it alone until it was finally incurable.
At that time, when she looked at Uncle Lu lying on the hospital bed crying and asking why he was so good to her, Uncle Lu was silent for a long time, and his expression was very complicated. He said he had promised her mother that he would do it, and he said he hated her......
After Uncle Lu's death, Chen Juxiang didn't know where to get her news, but she worked tirelessly for her youngest son to take the unit that found her to stop her.
As soon as Chen Juxiang opened her mouth, she asked her to give up her job to her grandson. Later, it really didn't work. The lion opened his mouth again, and asked her for the house that Uncle Lu had worked hard for all his life, and asked her to take out all her savings, and give her nine percent of her salary as filial piety money every month in the future.
She even helped her take care of her in-laws, an old bachelor in his forties. The money was collected. Chen Juxiang asked her to marry quickly, and told her not to take away her good clothes, saying that it belonged to the property of the old Su family, and she couldn't cheapen her "mother-in-law's" family......
Because Chen Juxiang is too troublesome, the leaders of her unit are really unbearable, so she can only ask her to go back to deal with family affairs before coming to work. In the end, she had to reluctantly quit her hard-won job, secretly left, and went to another city to get rid of her entanglement.
In a new city, everything has to start again. When she finally made a lot of money and returned to her hometown, she knew the whole "story" at that time, and also knew the real cause of her father's death, and knew what despicable role Chen Juxiang played between her mother and Uncle Lu.
When the truth was revealed, she cried fiercely, and since then the past has become a knot in her heart, and she has never been able to untie it in her life. Even if she later changed her surname to Lu, she also moved the grave to let her mother and Uncle Lu be buried together in the name of husband and wife, and wrote "father and mother" on their tombstones, which failed to reduce her guilt and heartache.
Chen Juxiang and the people of the Su family have not made trouble, but since she dares to do this, she is not without support.
