Chapter 46: Changes in the Village

Xia Wei hadn't written a diary for some time, and she had mixed feelings and wanted to write, but she didn't know what to write, so it was difficult to write. She thought, it is better to leave a blank space, and completely forget the bad memory in her mind.

In the evening, I came back from square dancing, took a hot shower, washed my clothes, turned on the TV and watched TV for a while, and then sat quietly at the table and wrote a diary. She wrote in her diary: I just watched the legal column drama, and with the development of the storyline, it also pushed me back to my memory of you back then, and the stories on TV are so similar to you. Teacher Cao on TV, with the help of his previous police students, finally got to the bottom of the case, and returned Mr. Cao justice. However, in real life, you have been wronged for more than 20 years, and you have not been clarified, let alone given justice. After so many years, it is really hard to imagine how to live, but I hope God has eyes and can let good people get the most fair treatment.

Others can not understand you, but I can't help but understand you, because, I know you better than anyone else, know your character, and I think that there will be a day when things will fall into place. I once talked to your colleague Yangzi about you, Yangzi told me that the school was indeed unfair to the handling back then, and he also proved that you were because of the sponsorship of your students to go to school, and the first thing she did when she graduated and was admitted to the school was to write to you, in the letter, she was very grateful to you, but also revealed her feelings for you, and your wife at the time saw it, so she handed the letter to the principal, and then, you were expelled from the school and suffered a divorce......

This nightmarish thing will be impossible for anyone to resist and bear. So, at that time, when I heard the news, my first reaction was that you were wrong. I will not let you fall, so, I have written you letters of encouragement and comfort, and I want to make you feel that not everyone in this world does not understand you. At that time, even if I am a lifeline for you, I will let you hold on tightly and never let you sink. For me back then, you were my life, all my love, although we couldn't get together because of the hindrance of our family, but my heart will always belong to you. I'm not going to sit idly by and see what happens to you.

Later, it was I who was not angry and the situation occurred, and you also found and helped me at the first time, and you are still helping me out of that unbearable shadow, and you were also misunderstood by everyone, and you were turned out of old accounts, which pushed you to the forefront again, and once again let you do good deeds and was misinterpreted. I can't be fooled anymore because of this, I have to be myself seriously, and I won't let down all the people who love me, let alone those who have helped me. I will pick myself up and face any difficulties and bumps in the face bravely.

Today's kindergarten physical examination, get along with the children very happily, looking at those innocent children, it seems that they have returned to the past, which is a vacation for the soul.

Ah Le has been working in Nanjing for several months, he regards me as a relative, really gratified, seeing him in the past in order to find a job and so restless, really want to help him, now he has finally solved the work problem, and can have a much higher salary than his hometown, although far away from home is very lonely and lonely, but there is no such thing as both. I am glad to see that he can support his family with the income of his labor.

On Sunday morning, Xia Wei rested at home and wanted to sleep more, but she woke up at six o'clock, and she didn't want to lie in bed, so she got up and washed up, boiled two corns and some sweet potatoes and pumpkins in the pot, and went straight to the vegetable market.

In the vegetable market, Xia Wei was excited by the dazzling array of agricultural products. She knew that the agricultural products on these stalls were all sold by the villagers from the endless agricultural products grown in their own fields. She wandered from stall to stall, asking prices from time to time, especially corn and sweet potatoes.

The taro that had just been unearthed in the farmhouse field, I really wanted to buy some, but when I asked the price, it cost five yuan a catty, which was too expensive, so Xia Wei had to give up buying it. began to ask the price of corn again, basically two yuan and five pounds, Xia Wei asked several more, and finally someone shouted two yuan a pound of corn, so she bought some. I bought sweet potatoes with the lowest price. This is a week's breakfast, she is going to cook these corn and sweet potatoes for breakfast, she knows that going to the countryside for physical examination is very hard, eating porridge is easy to get hungry, so she buys these agricultural products for breakfast, which is delicious, convenient, and not easy to be hungry.

She came to the fruit stall again, the last time she went to visit Ah Le, the grapes she bought at this stall were brought to Ah Le, it was ten yuan and four catties, and the stall owner also told Xia Wei that this was her own field, and the last batch was picked, and she wanted to sell it early, so she sold it cheaply.

Today, Xia Wei still wants to see if there is any cheaper fruit, she has been eating at her parents' house, and she is very reluctant to go, if there is cheap fruit, she will buy some and bring it to her parents. But when I asked the price, this grape cost four yuan a catty, so I had to give up.

Xia Wei passed by a stall selling fish, and the round little fleshy fish suddenly evoked her childhood memories.

I remember when I was a child, my grandfather would let Xia Wei go to the pond to touch the river mussels, and she would often catch such small fish in the cracks between aquatic plants and stones. To this day, I drool when I think about that smell. Xia Wei saw that there was this kind of small fish in front of the stall, so she stepped forward and asked the price, and the stall owner smiled and said: "Ten yuan a catty, how cheap, this is a pure wild small fish, this fish is delicious, meaty, no spines." Xia Wei touched her wallet, smiled at the stall owner and walked away.

Xia Wei finished breakfast, cooked the corn she bought, and took some to her parents' house. She gave the corn to her mother and said, "This is freshly cooked corn, you can eat some of it." ”

Mom took the corn and said with a smile, "I've had breakfast." ”

"Then let's eat it later, it's delicious." Xia Wei went to the room to turn on her brother's computer, wanting to write something, Ah Le sent QQ messages from time to time, he encouraged Xia Wei to write a diary, and also took a picture of his diary and sent it to Xia Wei, Xia Wei was ashamed.

Ah Le asked Xia Wei to pass the written diary to him, and Xia Wei agreed.

At this time, my mother peeled an apple and handed it to Xia Wei and said, "I'll write later, let's eat an apple first." ”

Xia Wei looked at her mother gratefully and smiled and said, "Okay, thank you!" You just ate it yourself, why do you give it back to me? ”

"I know, you are reluctant to buy food, there is still something at home, you can eat." Mom said distressedly.

Xia Wei's heart was full of warmth, although her parents had a pension, but they lived with her younger brother, and the family expenses were also large, and it was not easy.

After my parents retired from their hometown, I came to the county town to live with my little brother, and my parents said that my little brother was filial and sensible, and my brother-in-law was also very good, and she never cared about the elderly, and the family was all handed over to my parents. The younger brother and sister-in-law only go to work and do business. So my parents lived happily and freely, although it was very hard to do housework, but the two old people never complained, and my brother and daughter-in-law enjoyed it even more.

Originally, the younger brother lived with Xia Wei in that old-fashioned self-built building, but because the younger brother managed it well, the younger brother's store could finally make a profit, and he had some spare money to buy a house in this new community, and he had to bring his parents to live together. Xia Wei saw that her parents and younger brother were living happily, so she was naturally very happy and less worried. So she also promised to go to her parents for dinner after work in the evening, and she could also help the two old people with some housework.

After dinner, Xia Wei washed the dishes and chopsticks and went to the square with her mother to dance. Xia Wei didn't know how to dance square dance at first, but later her mother taught her to dance. In the first year after my parents retired, my younger brother gave birth to a son, and the two old men left their houses in their hometown village idle and came to my younger brother's house to take care of their children.

The mother had planned to bring the children back to the village to live, where they had lived for most of their lives, and they were reluctant to leave. However, once they settled in the county seat, they never wanted to go back to the village. First of all, it is because the children need to be accompanied by someone, and more importantly, the parents have also adapted to life in the city. In the county, Xia Wei's parents have a lot of old colleagues from the past have also come to live in the county, everyone in the free time with children, often get together together, recall some things in the past, and then talk about the fun after retirement, sometimes, but also meet to go to the street, and look forward to the annual travel together.

Xia Wei's mother also went to the University for the Elderly, where she learned to dance square dance, as well as paint and tie flowers.

It's a lot of fun to live in retirement. Once Xia Wei's parents remembered that it was dark at night in their hometown village, and what was even more hateful was that the village was muddy everywhere after the rain, and every time they thought of this, the old man didn't want to go back to live in the village.

Later, when the younger brothers saw that the house in their hometown was uninhabited and had been idle, they couldn't withstand the persuasion of their neighbors, so they gave the house and yard of their hometown, as well as the persimmon trees, jujube trees, pomegranate trees, cherry trees, fig trees, ginkgo trees, and gardenia trees that accompanied Xia Wei and them in the yard, and the neighbors paid the younger brother 4,000 yuan to dispose of the family property of his parents and ancestors for a lifetime.

Once Xia Wei thought of this, she felt uncomfortable, how many childhood memories were there in the old ancestral house. Every time Xia Wei returned to the village, she had to take a look at the old ancestral house that she grew up with, but she could only watch from a distance, they no longer belonged to her, it was someone else's home. Fortunately, there are four masters in the village who are guarding them, Xia Wei can finally go back to see, the fourth master is also the younger brother of her grandfather. In fact, Xia Wei also called her grandfather when she was a child, because her mother was an only daughter and her father was a son-in-law, so her grandfather was also her grandfather.

Xia Wei's parents now regret that they shouldn't have let their younger brothers sell their ancestral houses, there is not much difference between the village and the city, and there is a dance field in the village on the cement road in front of the house. In the village square, once it is night, men, women and children go to the square, some are square dancers, and the old people who can't dance will move their stools and sit around the square to watch the excitement. The old people and children chatting and watching the dancing were laughing and playing. Xia Wei's mother went to visit the fourth master's old back pain that day and stayed in the village for one night, and her mother said that the village was lively.
