Meng Fangtian's mother, Fang Meng, came to Xingkou Village from Shanghai, and had a very good upbringing in college, and after staying in Xingkou Village for 2 years, the news finally came that the educated youth could return to their hometowns, Fang Meng was very happy, but after applying, he was privately called to the village committee by the village captain on the grounds that there was a problem with the application. The captain told her very bluntly that if she wanted to go back to the city, she had to accompany him? bed, many young female intellectuals in the village silently endured the beastly behavior of the captain and other village cadres, just to escape from the down-and-out and barbaric countryside, but Fang Meng struggled to escape, and her way back to her hometown was naturally cut off.

Fortunately, Fang Meng met Meng Hui, the accountant in the village, who only had a high school education, he was considered a top student in the village, and he was also gentle and gentle, so Fang Meng married Meng Hui in order to get rid of the entanglement of the captain. After marriage, the two lived happily, the only regret was that Fang Meng only gave birth to a daughter, and then there was nothing, but Meng Hui didn't care, he was more open-minded, and he could withstand the pressure of his parents and elders, teaching his daughter to memorize Tang Shimo's multiplication formula, and lived a very happy life.

Meng Fangtian has been well-behaved since he was a child, following his mother to the field or accompanying his father to meetings, the villain is white and glutinous, and he is very pleasing. Fang Meng could only accept her fate in this life, so she put all her energy into teaching her daughter. Xiao Fangtian's grades are outstanding and he is deeply loved by his teachers.

Just when everyone thought that the daughter of the Meng family was going to become the first college student in the village, Meng Hui unfortunately passed away, the pillar of the family fell, and Fang Meng also fell ill because of this incident. The sensible Meng Fangtian dropped out of school on the eve of the college entrance examination and harvested ripe wheat and other crops at home.

After recovering from her illness, Fang dreamed of asking Meng Fangtian to repeat the exam, but Meng Fangtian refused, and she became a teacher in the village primary school. Meng Fangtian has a good temper and reads a lot of books, and the children like this new teacher very much, so her teaching career is relatively smooth.

When Meng Fangtian was 19 years old, the principal introduced her to the family, the man graduated from junior high school, only one sister, his parents are still alive and very capable, the young man is good in all aspects, and he doesn't mind supporting Fang Meng in the future, which is good for Meng Fangtian, so she agreed. This young man is Xu Yuandong, the father of Xu Heer's three siblings.

After Meng Fangtian got married, he still taught in the school, while Xu Yuandong was one of the early people in the village to go out to work, and both of them had good incomes, and they were able to get rid of poverty in the village. Meng Fangtian married into the Xu family in the second year and gave birth to a son, because he was the "He" generation, he was named Xu Heqi, and in the third year, Meng Fangtian gave birth to a daughter, that is, Xu Heran, at this time they had both children, Meng Fangtian did not plan to have it again.

Xu Her's arrival was an accident, when Meng Fangtian found out, she was prepared not to, and family planning was grasped all over the country, and her birth was obviously overborn. But Meng Fangtian's mother and parents-in-law persuaded her to stay, in the final analysis, their family "He" is only this one boy, if she is a boy in this child, it would be great. And Fang Meng only gave birth to one child, and he owed Meng Hui something in his heart, so he hoped that his daughter could keep this child.

Xu Herer was born in the middle of the night, did not go to the hospital, when it was launched, Xu Yuandong was not at home, it was her mother-in-law who accompanied her, and when her mother-in-law saw that she was about to give birth, she hurriedly called her husband to call the midwife. The midwife is in her 60s and has rich experience in delivering babies, and Meng Fangtian is not the first child, so it is relatively smooth. But she was born a daughter, which made Meng Fangtian's father-in-law very disappointed, so he turned around and went back to his room to sleep, and he didn't send his mother-in-law.

Because Xu Herer is a superstudent, she has the impression that every year the village has to send someone to her house to collect fines, she doesn't know how much she has to pay every year, and her parents have never mentioned it to her. Xu Her's grandfather has always disliked her, and when she was not sensible, her grandfather instigated his son and daughter-in-law to give her away and conceive another one.

This matter was strongly opposed by Xu Yuandong, who did not want his children to be raised by others, nor did he want his wife to suffer from childbirth. He runs outside all the year round, and his vision is much wider than that of the people in the village, and when he learned that Meng Fangtian gave birth to Xu Her, he didn't go to the hospital, and he turned around and counted his parents down.

After Xu Heer went to school, he performed well, which made Xu Yuandong and his wife very proud, Xu Yuandong often said that it was fortunate that he didn't give the child away, and the family was such a good student, so he pointed to Xu Heer who was admitted to the university and glorified the lintel. Gradually, Xu Her's grandfather didn't like this little granddaughter so much, but he never loved her like a grandson.

Xu Yuandong died in the autumn when Xu Herer was 12 years old, and in that summer, Xu Herer had just entered junior high school and had just come to menarche, and she really became a big girl. Xu Yuandong died because of a car accident, he drank too much with his friends that day, sat in a rickety tricycle, the tricycle in order to avoid the oncoming big truck, made an emergency turn, Xu Yuandong was thrown out of the car at once, the tricycle driver was not injured, but Xu Yuandong was smashed on the concrete floor and died on the spot.

At that time, the Xu family was about to collapse, Meng Fangtian stumbled and took the three children to the funeral home to see her husband for the last time, Xu Heer now thinks about it, and only remembers that her father was lying on the stretcher on the ground, and she touched her father's cheeks cold and stiff.

At that time, my brother was 16 years old and was sent by his mother to learn computers, but he dropped out of school and worked as a small worker in a construction site to earn money to supplement the family. Brother Xu Heqi is very different from his father Xu Yuandong, he is silent and stubborn, and after his father died, he had to support the family.

After Xu Heran was sent by his mother to study for a year and a half vocational high school, after Xu Herer was admitted to the only provincial key high school in the county, he dropped out of school and went out to work with girls from the same village, and worked in a courier company in Nanjing and an electronics factory in Kunshan. The reason why Xu Heran made such a decision is because his mother has always been a private teacher, and her salary is not much, but now she has been opened by the school, and the above instructed that public teachers can teach, and Meng Fangtian has not been able to transfer to the public office, so he had to leave the school.

Xu Heqi and Xu Heran siblings have always supported their sister in studying, Meng Fangtian planted at home for a year, the income was not as good as the youngest daughter's tuition for a year, so he came to Shanghai to look for a job, and before that, Meng Fangtian had only been to the provincial capital city at the farthest.

Fortunately, Meng Fangtian has been a teacher all these years, and his literacy and knowledge are good, so he found a job as a live-in nanny, and waited for the old man, his son, daughter-in-law and grandson in a garden house in Jing'an District. In addition to her, there is a middle-aged driver who always wears a uniform, Huang Ma, a housekeeper and cook, and a part-time worker couple who do chores. Meng Fangtian is responsible for serving the old man taking medicine in this family, and is responsible for the wife's clothing and jewelry, the husband's study and the life of the little master, all of which are very delicate work. Fortunately, none of the people in this family are mean people, and no one deliberately embarrasses her.

At first, Xu Heqi did not agree with his mother to be a nanny for others, in his heart, his mother has always been the image of a people's teacher, which is far from being a nanny, but Meng Fangtian did not feel embarrassed, the work is not difficult, just need to be careful, and the salary is higher than that of ordinary white-collar workers, she really can't think of a better job than this. What's more, in addition to Xu Heer's need for money to study, Xu Heqi has also reached marriageable age, in their place, marrying a daughter-in-law is an extremely expensive thing, Meng Fangtian must save enough money to show his son a good family business.

Xu Heran did not object to his mother's approach, and when his mother worked in that house for three months, Xu Heran went to Shanghai from Kunshan to see her once. At that time, Xu Heran just wanted to meet her mother outside, but unexpectedly, the host's family invited her to be a guest at home, except for the old man who was upstairs in the study, the other hosts were not there, and carefully made room for their mother and daughter to meet privately.

Xu Heran saw such a gorgeous and magnificent place for the first time, it was more gorgeous than the five-star hotel she had seen, her mother's room was on the first floor, it was very spacious and clean, and even her mother's complexion was much better than when she was at home. The mother knew that her daughter was coming, and she had saved a lot of good things to give her, and the old clothes that the wife didn't want were all brand-name goods, and Meng Fangtian was reluctant to throw them away, so she asked the wife if she could leave them to her children, although the wife was a little arrogant, but her heart was not bad, so she agreed, and also gave her some worthless jewelry, so that she could wear it herself, and she didn't object to giving it away. And when the husband learned that Meng Fangtian had a daughter who was studying in high school, he gave her some books, saying that if he could be admitted to Shanghai in the future, he would give Xu Heer a big gift, which made Meng Fangtian very grateful.

When Xu Heran left, the old man happened to come down from upstairs, and when he saw Xu Heran, he also praised Meng Fangtian as a "heroic mother", their family was so good to Meng Fangtian, and they also sympathized with her young widow and had to raise three children. Xu Heran dragged away a box, she found a time to send everything to her sister, she wore uniforms in the factory, basically 6 and a half days a week, no time to wear these beautiful clothes and jewelry, but my sister is different, she is an adolescent, and she is studying, and her classmates in the city can not be too different.

Xu Hel was relieved to hear that her mother was doing well in that house, and as for this box of clothes and jewelry, she chose some suitable ones and wore them to school. The high school in the county did not have the concept of wearing school uniforms, and it was only during the flag-raising ceremony every Monday that it was required to be put on a fat school uniform similar to a Zhongshan suit, at that time Xu Herer was extremely thin, and it was when she grew tall, her school uniform was 165, but the waist of the pants could accommodate at least two Xu Her.

In the three years of Xu Her's high school, Meng Fangtian only had ten days off during the Chinese New Year to spend a reunion with his family. During the winter vacation of Xu Heer's sophomore year of high school, someone began to tell his brother about matchmaking. That year, the family was very lively, Xu Herer was not allowed to participate in the whole process, and she only had to worry about her studies.
