Eighty-three

Xie Dahua turned on the fluorescent lamp at home. Seeing that Zhu Yushen was already listening to herself motionlessly, she was even more interested, so she talked to him eloquently.

She said that now this society is full of temptations and people's hearts are impetuous. From a noisy city to a small town as far away as Huangzhen, some hateful farce is staged every day. Man is like a reptile, humbly living under high depression, bearing the sorrow of the soul that is worse than exertion. Even the quiet countryside is now too unsafe to toss, divorces, separations, and little daughters-in-law running away from home have happened repeatedly. Many people and things fall apart in an instant, and there is very little happiness to speak of.

In today's industrialized society, many young women are no longer proficient in farming. They can't do things like growing vegetables, and they don't want to do it. I want to go to a more comfortable class by myself, and then use the money to buy groceries. In this way, it is conceivable that in 10 to 20 years, when the older generation who can be busy with farm work is gone, the fields will be barren.

Just like herself and some of the women around her, big and small, some go to work or do business to earn a little money, and some don't do anything at all. They all don't want to engage in those things in the countryside, let alone those who come after.

It's a social problem. Regarding this situation, Zhu Yushen also has a deep understanding. Around him, within the scope of vision, there are indeed no young people who are willing to go to the fields anymore. When Xie Wumei usually chatted with him, she also said that she had been working as a tailor since she entered the society, and she looked down on people who did farm work in her heart. Like many fussy girls these days, she is hell-bent on marrying a public official and thus living a non-agricultural life. That's what he has. It's attractive to her.

Zhu Yushen thought of Xie Wumei. My heart is full of warmth. He looked at Xie Dahua's thin clothes in front of him. Thinking that the hot summer is coming. School is closed at the end of June, and he has time by then.

He thought that by then, Xie Wumei should also be dressed so seductively. This summer vacation must not be wasted, he wants to be with Xie Wumei, grinding his ears and temples, and looking together.

In the past winter and summer vacations, Zhu Yushen traveled alone except to go to his two aunts' houses. Go to a few small attractions around, or by the Yangtze River. Feel the vitality of nature and absorb the essence of heaven and earth. After returning to school after playing, I locked myself up again, read books, wrote, and didn't go out for many days in a row. The coldness during the school holidays just gave him a quiet environment for studying and writing.

However, now it is different, after Xie Wumei, who can be regarded as his girlfriend, enters his life, everything about him will face a revolutionary change. He thought that if he could get the approval of Xie Wumei's family soon, they might really be able to do something vigorous between them.

Zhu Yushen was full of energy. Continue to make the appearance of listening to Xie Dahua.

Xie Dahua said that after graduating from high school. My younger brother is already in junior high school. My younger brother's grades are better. So my father said that from the time she graduated, the family would have to work hard for several years. There is ample logistics for the younger brother to go to high school, college, or even higher education. Her parents sent her to work as an apprentice in a clothing store introduced by an acquaintance in the city.

The shop was the same as her now, making clothes and selling them at the same time. Her proprietress was an old woman with a perfect tailoring skills. The husband of the proprietress is a petty official in the city office. Because of his vast magical powers, the business of the clothing store is relatively good. After three months of study, the proprietress paid her. Although it was a cut below the senior sister who came first, she was still very satisfied. But the petty official often harassed them publicly. In the end, the senior sister couldn't resist the temptation and was driven away by the boss.

But she stayed for two years, and then she became more skilled. Two years later, she went to work in another branded clothing store for a year. At that time, her younger brother was already in high school, and his use had increased a lot. Every penny spent in the family is painful for parents. But the younger brother himself is living more and more chic, and he is already like the leader of the son. ”

At that time, she was only twenty years old, and she was at the age of love to dress up. But the money he earns can't be spent indiscriminately, and he must fully support his younger brother. This is also what she willingly did.

What happened then was that their family came to the door to talk about the media in an endless stream. learned from the matchmaker that many handsome guys with thick backgrounds themselves or their families fell in love with her who was dignified, healthy, and beautiful.

But her family is firmly in control of her marriage and love future, and they don't let go easily. She didn't squeak at the time, because in the vast sea of people, she hadn't found her crush. She felt that the boys who were introduced to her by others, as well as the boys she had dated, had a lot of unsatisfactory points.

Later, she still wanted to leave her fate and happiness to others to decide. She felt that women were like dandelions, when they matured, when the wind blew, they drifted into the distance. As for where they drift to, whether they are poor or rich, it depends on their respective creations.

The criteria for her parents to choose a mate for her still revolve around her younger brother's future. They made it to the husband that the cost of her brother's university education must be borne by the man's family. This arrogant request frightened off many people who proposed or intended to propose, and for a while, her family affairs were put on hold. When her parents asked her how she felt and whether they hated that they offered her too high a price that might delay her youth, she said it didn't matter. That's what she thought in her heart.

Later in her part-time job at a branded clothing store in the city, someone introduced her to a chef. His home is in Huangzhen, and the young man looks tamped. After graduating from junior high school, he went to the provincial capital to learn to be a chef, and endured a lot of hardships, and he was already a chef in a big restaurant in the city at that time.

He was making a lot of money at the time. In addition, he is an only child in the family, and his parents have a small business in the town, and the family has a lot of money. After they exchanged affections, she informed him of her parents' request. Who knew that he and his family actually agreed to it, saying that the money was nothing. So they soon returned to their hometown and got married.

This chef is her current husband, and she was married while pregnant. After the marriage, they rested for a long time. Her husband was very clingy to her, but he didn't want to go out to make a lot of money anymore, so he ran a small business with his father.

Before getting married, when they were working in the city and falling in love, his words were full of pride and ambition, saying that he must do something in the future; said that his cooking skills are already at the level of masters, and in the future, your wife will be ready to count a lot of money!

But after marriage, he and before were judged to be two people. After his daughter was born, he simply didn't go out to earn money. I'm not happy, I don't do any work, and I gamble in mahjong all day long. In this way, there will inevitably be quarrels between husband and wife. But he said that people should not live so tired, their family background is okay, and they will not play defeat.

When she saw him like this, she didn't know how many tears she swallowed. At that time, her cousin was also out and about, fooling around with a man from the town, and she was eight months pregnant. When he returned home, he found that the man's family was not only poor, but the man himself was not good, so his cousin resolutely had an abortion and remarried. By this time her daughter had been born, and she was not as bold as her cousin.

She just regretted that she was pregnant with a child before marriage. Otherwise, her husband would have become so unbearable so quickly, and with her temper, she really wanted to follow her cousin's example.

Xie Dahua said that when he was sad, his beautiful face was full of sadness. So much so that Zhu Yushen was already very sympathetic to her. She said, "I really don't know what I'm going to do in the future. ”

After a long pause, she went on to say that her husband's family's financial support for her brother had basically fulfilled its promise. This is also the reason why she treats her husband and his parents with gratitude. However, she still thinks that it is very unfair for her family to let her brother complete higher education at her expense.

After the third year of high school, my younger brother had no intention of studying, and spent a lot of money in Internet cafes all day long, or chasing girls. Fun, he only ended up being admitted to a second-rate university. When he was sent to school, he was still coaxing, thinking he was sorry. In a few years of college, he intensified his messing, constantly asking her and her parents for money. Her husband's family had deposited tens of thousands of yuan in her account in the form of a bride price for her brother's education. (To be continued......)
