Chapter 1 Wu Model Worker with the Land

As early as when the south was popular and the Central Plains was in chaos, in the slightly calm Songnen Plain in the northeast, in a small village scattered with dozens of families, there was an only son named Wu Laoqi, who looked stupid and stupid, and should have been loved, but unfortunately his father went crazy not long after he was born. When Wu Laoqi was 11 years old, his crazy father unfortunately passed away, leaving behind orphans and widows. At the beginning of the unfortunate story, there will be countless possibilities to continue to narrate, but it is only because of the formation of Wu Lao's weak temperament that determines the narrative route of our story. Wu Laoqi, who lost his father at a young age, is the first misfortune in his life, and it is very likely to form a cowardly temperament, and it is easy to die untimely due to the devastation of the world. Wu Laoqi's father is a painter in the city, it is his grandfather who saw his father sent to the city to learn painting since he was a child, his father was born spiritual and diligent in learning, and he painted well, and gradually became famous, and is expected to become a generation of painters. When Wu Laoqi's parents got married, it was a cabinet made by his grandfather, two wooden boxes and a pair of boxes, and a small and exquisite dressing box engraved with the word double happiness on the front, and the cabinet door and box were equipped with copper locks, which were very exquisite, and the family background was reasonable. It's just that Wu Laoqi's mother often cried when she wanted to go home, and later the family moved to Big Elm Village, where her mother's home was located.

The village of Great Elm is surrounded by elm forests on three sides, east, west and north, and an endless open marshland with lush water and grass in the south. From the north of the village, the village is surrounded by a dense elm forest, not far from the northeast of the village, there is a large thick, dense, tall, thick and old elm forest, it seems that those crooked old elm trees are hundreds of years old, from the edge of the forest to look at the Hessian forest, the old trees in it will bleed with sawing, so that people are shocked to hear, a single adult is not daring to rush into the woods. This is the origin of the Great Elm Village, and it also symbolizes its longevity. Not far to the east is a large open area of clean water, formed by an inland rootless river, which spreads from east to south. When the water is large, it is an endless ocean, and when the water is small, it forms a swampy area, with dense reeds, shallots, kudzu and weeds, which have never dried up. Fish and birds are abundant. To the west and north of the village is the plain hillland, where there are large areas of alkaline grass and weeds that cattle and sheep like to eat, such as daylily, blue maran, pink peony flower, morning glory, lily, etc., which reflect each other and form a gorgeous picture. After the small man, all kinds of birds come in flocks, swifts, magpies, crows, larks, house sparrows, thrushes, one after another, chirp tactfully and listen, there are red-crowned cranes, white swans, geese, goshawks, pheasants, gray cranes and other large rare birds fly through the sky from time to time, sometimes even overwhelming. The meadows are grazing herds of sheep and cattle. The clouds floated in the blue sky like white cotton wool. Big Elm Village is a very rich and famous village in that area.

Wu Laoqi's parents first came to Dayushu Village, and they had no room or land, so they had to live in their uncle's house. Wu Laoqi's father has never done farm work, he can't do it, he doesn't want to do it and he can't do it well, he can't do it anymore, he can't do anything in the face of a fertile soil, he is helpless, he gradually resents his daughter-in-law, and he becomes ill for a long time, he went crazy in the year he was born, he beat his daughter-in-law's hair when he got sick, he woke up and cried, he ran around without beating people when he got sick, and his feet were frozen in winter, and the meat was rotten and his bones were exposed. The family is in decline. Wu Laoqi's mother regretted that she had hurt her husband, and tried her best to care for her, but it was difficult to prevent an unfortunate fate from coming. After the death of her husband, her father-in-law and in-laws wanted to take her grandson away and raise her, and the young widowed mother of the poor son swore that the mother and son would depend on each other for their lives, and they would not remarry for the rest of their lives to raise the only seedling.

The motherly love of the poor son cured Wu Laoqi's pain of losing his father, and he gradually developed a strong temperament of few words but not weak. The name Wu Laoqi has a bit of a origin. The surname at the beginning of mankind was originally fabricated, and the name of the person depended on imagination, Wu, which can be understood as nothing, or as having anything. The old man indicates that he will become a model of labor and an example of learning. There is a young man named Sha Tao, who saved people in the water and died gloriously, someone looked at the name on the tombstone and said, what do you think about removing the three points of water, whoever hears this story can't help but take a breath of cold air and say in surprise, Shaoshou. I am amazed that the combination of first and last names hides the fate of people so cleverly. The name Wu Laoqi represents the people born in that era. Of course, there are many types of people born in that era, I wrote a novel and chose to write about the boundless paradise, so I chose to describe people like Wu Laoqi as the protagonist, there is a taste of biography for people like him, he is an ordinary person, ordinary thousands, like flowers and plants growing on the earth, but I like the earthy smell that emanates from the thickness, the intimacy contained in the simplicity, and the memories from time to time will induce deep emotional attachment, hating that time cannot be turned back, and can only vaguely imagine the figure of the ancestors. If he is a brave and ruthless temperament, it is very likely to be portrayed as an image of a general, and it will become a novel with a military theme.

People deal with the land all the year round, and the temperament gradually follows the land, the land can't speak, and there is no need to say anything to it, as long as you can understand its temperament and obey its temperament to do, it will be able to grow what you need, and deal with the land to be willing to strength, and it is not clear whether the land caters to Wu Laoqi's temperament or he perceives the spirituality of the land from the land to cast his temperament, and the livestock and farm tools used and seeds will not speak, His original temperament and his understanding became more and more earthy, the land turned into his temperament and became less to say and do more, the land became his sustenance, opened his understanding, and made him full of self-confidence, as long as people do not treat the land badly, the land will not treat people badly, more strength and more harvest, good years are not as good as good strength, so that he is most willing to spend effort when serving the crops, seeing the growth of the crops, he is not good at talking in his heart, life gradually improved, and his mother's face also showed a comfortable smile, Gained prestige among the villagers. The land is immense, but also rich, it is the treasure of wealth, and the knowledge and spirituality he has gained from the land, the land has also given him rich rewards, and he has achieved a lifetime.

Wu Laoqi, ancestral home of Jining, Shandong, the ancestors suffered an official disaster and the whole family was beheaded, and the two sons fled to Kanto to avoid trouble, Wu Laoqi is the descendant of one of them, and the other branch was lost, otherwise our story will be branched out. How can Shandong and Kwantung be connected, whether the distant ancestors will listen to Kong Meng's lectures, such imagination is actually not outrageous, maybe it is still after the Spring and Autumn Warring States which celebrity, just like the Chinese share the same ancestor Fuxi, two sons became the later Huang Yan two emperors developed into two major tribes, brothers lost peace and fought and killed, leaving descendants also inherited this tradition, perhaps later the Kuomintang and the Communist Party inherited the ancestral heritage, not to say that the Kuomintang and the Communist Party are the descendants of Huang Yan and the two respectively, but I am not sure who is whose descendant. Imagine that the people of the whole earth have a common ancestor in Africa, and there are countless hostile camps divided for what to do, and it is not uncommon to think that the brothers and sons of a mother and daughter are like strangers now.

Morality arises from ethics, and even religion is not related to ethics, such as the Father and the Son are derived from the ethics of the Father and the Son, and it is easy for people to understand the relationship between God and man as the relationship between the Father and the Son, indicating that there is a father-son relationship first and then there is the relationship between the Father and the Son, but the latter overwhelms the first, this is because some things do not work by the father-son relationship, and the Father and the Son appear. Ethics is the oldest, most primitive and most vital human relationship, and the barriers between people and the fighting, killing and killing are contrary to human ethics and human nature after all. Lao Tzu's indisputability comes from ancient ethics. Although Wu Laoqi is not very literate, but after all, he has the genes of his ancestors in his bones, from the anthropological standard for thousands of years is still a close relative, he released harmony in the genetic chain, in order not to fight for the fullest embodiment in him, he is most unaccustomed to the disputes between people, when he was young, he lacked the protection of father's love, and was bullied outside is just a person who sulks, he himself has no quarrel with the world, he does not ask for anything, he is afraid of asking for trouble caused by asking people. His children inherited his legacy and lived in harmony, with no chattering between the family. He taught his children that a chopstick is easy to break, and a chopstick is difficult to break, the truth is simple, straightforward and profound, although this truth sounds simple, it is difficult to stick to, and it requires tolerance and sacrifice.

When Wu Laoqi was 21 years old, his later mother-in-law fell in love with him, good character, capable, simple and kind, although he was an orphan and widow, but he was reliable, and he felt that his girl could not be angry when she married into such a family, and she was satisfied. How dare Wu Laoqi's mother think of such a thing? Look at the Gui Fang girl, is a descendant of the Qing Dynasty station people, very beautiful, melon seed face, big eyes, double eyelids, eyes look very godly, short hair with a hair band, wearing a cheongsam is very slim, long is also white, the mouth smile is particularly good-looking, people are smart, can speak. There was an old lady at the north gate of the village, rich and tricky, and she spoke very ugly, she sighed after hearing about this family, what a lazy man married a good wife, such a good girl was blind and gave such a family, people were poor and the house and land were not not to say, and the people were very ugly, with a donkey face, and cockroaches could not reach the end for three days on it.

Gui Fang is not only good-looking but also a warm-hearted person, after marriage, wearing a big cloth shirt, much like the cheongsam worn by Manchu women, relatively wide, blue, embroidered with some cloud scrolls, strips, lace, in order to be durable, usually always wash the pulp clean, folded flat and neat. The cloth shirt is washed with rice washing water or starch slurry. They are beaten with a mallet on a thick wooden plank, and they are worn on their bodies like they are made of paper, and they make a loud noise. After Gui Fang passed the door, he saw that although Wu Laomo was reluctant to squeak, he was capable of doing his duty, and he was a good crop, and he felt that he would not be hungry for the rest of his life, so he would live with peace of mind. She saw that her mother-in-law was wearing torn trousers that were mended and mended in winter, so she took out the fabric and bought cotton, and she had a good hand of needlework, so she made a new cotton pants for her mother-in-law, and moved her mother-in-law to tears, saying that she had not worn such soft new cotton pants for 20 years. People say that mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are natural enemies, but the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law get along with each other more and more deeply, and enjoy the joy of the family. Gui Fang gave birth to his son Wu Quan to Lao Wu for a year, and got two sons in a row, but unfortunately died of smallpox and diphtheria, and gave birth to two sons in 1944, named Wu Gui, which is not easy to come by. In 1947, she gave birth to her third son, Wu Liang.

The interior is still full of battlefields filled with gunpowder, but here it has been liberated, land reform has been carried out, the peasants have turned over, divided their houses and land, have their own houses and land, and realized their dreams for many lifetimes, and they are full of joy. Wu Laoqi named his third son Wu Liang, which means that the day is dawning, people's hearts are also bright, and his son lives in this era and has a bright future. Political emancipation, people's mood is better, life is better, everything is better. People are generally stimulated with great enthusiasm for construction and sky-high energy, glowing with amazing creative passion, especially in the creative ability of the population, the liberation of the material productive forces has also brought about the liberation of the productive forces of the population, the ancient concept of more children and more blessings seems to have been unprecedentedly encouraged and motivated, everyone has a job, everyone has a commitment to eat and although it is only a low level of security, effectively ensuring the survival rate of newborns, people feel joy and cheer for the rapid increase in population, and everyone is highly motivated. People like to watch the scene of the crowd surging with one heart, and they actually have a preference for crowd tactics.

The landlords in the village are willing to hire him as a long-term worker, improve the food for him in the busy season, fry him with his favorite green onion and fried pork, stew pork with sauerkraut and vermicelli, and increase his wages appropriately. He is a very loyal person, he thinks, it is better to visit relatives than friends, visit friends instead of going to the store, and go down to the store instead of going to the place. He often said that there was more dung on many lands, don't run away from relatives when you are poor, fish and touch shrimp, starve the whole family to death, the fishing industry is not guaranteed, five horses and six sheep are falling, and the more you fall, the poorer you are. Lao Wu doesn't look down on the sideline in his bones, and thinks that doing those things is not a serious business, and he is dedicated to practicing farming.

The soil is good, what is planted and what is harvested. Wu Laoqi believes in whoever works hard and does it well, and others will not treat him badly. He has been working in the house of the landlord surnamed Cui, the landlord surnamed Cui is also very good at employing people, every time a piece of land is simmered under the careful service of Wu Laomo, the landlord will give him a piece of raw land, Wu Laomo has formed a deep relationship with the land, every time he leaves the familiar land that he has carefully served, he will be like saying goodbye to relatives and friends, and he is sad and sad like leaving his own children, he lies on the land he has cultivated and cries, and then kneels on the ground and pious with both hands to dig up a handful of soil and put it in a basket that is prepared, and so on, The special basket he used to hold the cooked soil was already full, and the basket of soil had become a symbol of his love for the land, and he would often look at the basket of soil with tears in his eyes, and it would gradually become a piece of land of his own in his mind, and from the land he would unconsciously conjure up the livelihood, happiness and joy of his family. With the accumulation of soil in the basket, his love for the land is also accumulating, and gradually becoming more and more intense desire and expectation, he is imagining, longing, fantasizing, and looking forward to having his own land.

After the liberation of the land reform, Wu Laoqi's dream finally became a reality, because the family population was divided into big houses and big gardens. When Wu Laoqi stood on his own land for the first time, he was even more joyful, happy and joyful than the feeling of having a child, working for himself in his own land, feeling the fullness and self-confidence that he had never had, he was grateful to the party that gave him the land, and the new society that brought him good luck, and with his own land, he seemed to have inexhaustible energy, and he sowed his sweat and hope on his own land day and night. His real, recognizable, proficient in farming, and not offending people's character, won a good reputation in the village, and soon attracted the attention and attention of the working group, so he intended to contact him to observe him and cultivate him, first develop him into the party, and later appointed him as the secretary of the village branch, and was recommended by the county to the province, and won the provincial model worker and the provincial people's congress representative for three consecutive times. The younger generation heard it and thought that Wu Laomo was his real name. Gui Fang, who was originally outgoing, was also involved in the fiery life of that era, and with a good contact, helpful and talkative character, she joined the party and was soon arranged to be the women's director of the village.
