Episode 067: Enter the village, enter the door

Xiaojuan took Lin Changfeng all the way back to the village, this village is called Lotus Village, it is really a coincidence, it seems to be the village where Jiang Shangzhou and Jiang Shan's family, who were hit by Li Longqi before, lived. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Lotus Village is not too far from the town center of Youfang Town, that is, the middle school of Youfang, and it only takes ten minutes to walk, this is a village that is not small in scale, because there are two unconnected lotus ponds in the center of the village, so it is called Lotus Village.

Most of the residents in the lotus village are living around the two lotus ponds in the village, the layout of the village is not planned, most of the villagers are building houses at will, so it seems that the pattern is a little messy, in recent years, because of the rise of migrant workers returning to their hometowns to build houses, the lotus village is not exempt from vulgarity, just approaching the entrance of the village to see a few three-storey buildings that have not yet been built erected there, up and down there are people who stay at home to help work are busy.

Now I don't know when it has become popular in the countryside, and the countryside has reached the marriageable age, but all rural men who have not gone to school must build a house before they can get married, and some even have a house and a car, and not only the premise of marriage is a house, but the bride price is higher and higher year by year.

Although Lin Changfeng hasn't been in the countryside for a long time, he has long heard of these ridiculous words from the peasant people. I have also seen some essential comments that with the free opening of the market and the deepening of farmers' participation in the market, a national labor market and a national marriage market have gradually taken shape, and at the same time, a national class division has also emerged.

Faced with the pressure and anxiety of class differentiation and competition for social status, for women, the nature of marriage has changed, and marriage has changed from an end to a means, that is, a means to achieve class competition and upward social mobility. The closest brothers in the village are full of emotions and responsibilities, but today's market participation is also torn apart by the fierce competitive pressure of class division.

In many cases, working outside the home is the best excuse for them to avoid raising children. In their mental and emotional development, the tediousness of raising children makes them miserable, and the harm of going out too early to another child does not enter their sight at all. When they grow up to become parents, this lack of love will not be made up for with the change of identity, as if it is God's help.

The barren intergenerational transmission of love is what really worries people. Comparing the care and good education received by children from normal urban families, it is undeniable that another invisible gap has widened the gap between urban and rural areas. But on the other hand, because of years of working abroad, the values of many rural young people have been deeply rooted in the current consumption concept. Whether it is dressing up, getting married and buying a house, or daily life, its weather vane is no different from that of urban children.

In their eyes, life does not have a particularly precious meaning, to live, to live humbly and numbly, to be able to feel the happiness purely from the instinct and inertia of life, to die, but also to die as a matter of course, in a village that is becoming lonely and declining, this silent tragedy does not cause too many waves in people's hearts. The tragic fate of the miserable peasants, who are born deaf and dumb, has never been fundamentally and completely changed, and the glorious economic development of the past few years has not allowed them to enjoy the dignity and dignity comparable to the overall strength of the country, except for giving them enough to eat. The glitz and glamour of the big cities, the extravagance of the rich in the cities, and the lofty lives of the successful have little to do with the miserable situation of the countryside in the same land.

All the peasants instinctively hope to change the fate of the family through their son's entry into the city, but all these efforts are nothing more than a copy of the popular "you retreat, I cover" story model in the movie

In the process of so-called modernization, the peasants have already paid a very heavy price. I can no longer expect those brothers and sisters to change their fate as they continue to modernize, and their fate tomorrow will only be as harsh as yesterday's. In the situation of big government and small society, becoming a stepping stone to the lowly is the only fate of the disadvantaged. ”

Lin Changfeng can sometimes see through this, but he can only look at it coldly, he is not a saint, he does not have a great realm of compassion and compassion, this kind of reincarnation of fate cannot be changed by one person or a generation.

So when he saw that these people had worked hard for several years or half of their lives in the so-called high-rise cement house with face, which maybe they could only live in once a year or two, Lin Changfeng could only smile bitterly, turned his head and followed Xiaojuan to continue walking forward.

Follow Xiaojuan into the village and walk for a few minutes, through a tall and low house, and soon arrived at Xiaojuan's current door is the door of Laizi's house, there is no one at home, the gate is locked, Laizi's house is very broken, this kind of house should be the kind of red brick house built in the eighties and nineties, there is a small yard, the door is also made of wood, and one of them is hung with a rope, there is a look that it will fall, the door is locked and not locked.

Lin Changfeng had questions all the way, and he didn't know why Xiao Juan brought him to where she lives now, if according to what Jiang Yong said, Xiao Juan has been abused by Na Laizi, isn't Xiao Juan asking for trouble by bringing him back at this time? There are so many people living in this village, there are many people, and all the people in the village in the countryside know more people with broken mouths, just pass two sentences to the ears of Na Laizi, Xiaojuan has not to suffer a beating.

Isn't she afraid? Or for what reason? At this time, seeing Xiaojuan carrying a plastic bag to open the door, Lin Changfeng looked around and saw that someone was already looking here not far away, and cheered for Xiaojuan in his heart.

Squeak, as Xiao Juan opened the lock on the door and pushed the hand carrying the plastic bag to you, the door was opened, Xiao Juan walked in, Lin Changfeng glanced at the yard, the yard was very clean, and it must be Xiao Juan's credit.

Just when Lin Changfeng was hesitating whether to go in, at this time, Xiaojuan suddenly turned around and smiled at Lin Changfeng and said softly: "Come in, why don't you come in......?" ”
