Chapter 315
These fathers are a sad generation, although Fang Monan and their juniors can't empathize, but they still have to let the two little ones know that life is not easy and hard.
Their childhood was first the Great Leap Forward, and then three years of natural disasters, and they were lucky not to starve to death!
Teenagers joined the Red Guards and didn't learn much all day! I want to eat some meat and oil all day long, and I think that the capitalist countries are living in dire straits!
Young people responded to the call of the country, went to the mountains and countryside, went to the frontier construction corps, and went to the places where the motherland needed it most to receive re-education! I don't want to say more, who is bitter who knows!
In the prime of life, stay up until you go back to the city and become a worker, 18-38 yuan per month! When it comes to getting married, an 18-inch color TV (about 1800-2000 yuan) needs the sum of the salary of the young couple for about 2 years before marriage (no food or drink)!
Middle-aged people catch up with 40 or 50 layoffs! There is no way, once again to respond to the call of the country!
Middle-aged and elderly people are finally re-employed, working to support their families, and they have to pay social security! I also want to let my children dream of college, but it turns out that they have no job after graduating from college, and their children have to gnaw at the old! There are also elderly and sick parents! Alas, who let us not have an iron rice bowl?! In order to be happy in old age, pay social security, and fight again with tears!
The elderly can finally retire leisurely! But you find that the meager pension can never keep up with the speed of price rise, and this is not yet retired! The pension age will be extended to 65, or even 68! The key is to work hard to live to 68!
This should be a portrayal of most of Fang Monan's fathers, but this is not the end, there are still children! They are the more tragic generation.
can't afford to give birth, and there are 5,000 cuts in the abdomen; If you can't afford to study, you can choose a school from 30,000; can't afford to live, more than 20,000 yuan per square meter; It's not that you can't afford to marry your wife, who will marry you if you don't have a house or a car? Can't afford it. Parents laid off their children go to the field; can't afford to be sick, can't afford to live from ten times the profit of medicine, and work hard more than 1,000 a month; can't afford to die, cremated and buried more than 30,000.
That's the reality. What can you do, you can only live sadly and strongly, fate is like rape, you can't resist and you have to learn to enjoy. Work is like, if you can't do it, someone else will do it. Life is like masturbation, you have to rely on your own hands for everything. Learning is like prostitution, you have to work hard after you pay for it. The words are not rough, and I am thankful that I can live a healthy life without looking for trouble.
Fang Menan looked at Dabao and Erya and looked at the old photos seriously, although this life will not be so humble and poor, but the child has to be educated. Otherwise, a good child will be disabled and wasted, which will not only pit the child, but most importantly, the father!
The ancients said that "there are no more than three generations of wealth", and the complete one is "a moral heirloom, more than ten generations; Cultivating and reading heirlooms are second, poetry and books are heirlooms, and wealth heirlooms. But three generations".
Wealth is created by excellent and capable talents, and only excellent and capable descendants can better inherit, preserve and increase wealth. Keeping a business is more difficult than starting a business, because most entrepreneurs have been honed since their adolescence, which has tempered their strong will and outstanding talents, enabling them to achieve great things. In this way, we have to thank the suffering life for the tempering of people, and the next generation is facing a family that has become wealthy, has not experienced the difficulties of starting a business, it is difficult to understand that wealth is not easy to come by, and if there is no good education, it is easy to lose the family business.
Fang Monan sat cross-legged on the bed, his chin in his hand, and looked at the two of them, "How is it!" Now you know what kind of life my mother used to have! ”
The two little ones nodded in unison, "Sister Nan, can you give us these photos?" ”
"Of course, I still have negatives to wash out." Fang Monan said again, "But we have something to say first. You can't break it! ”
"Of course, my mother's picture should be kept." Dabao closed the photo album and said, Erya said, "We have seen so many photos, why don't there be many old photos of Dad!" ”
Qi Qiushi's photos are all photos of life in the factory, and the photos of my aunt are even from when I was a child. However, most of the photos with my grandmother and mother are family portraits and the like, and there are very few single photos. But although the photos are black and white, they are all beautiful women! It's not an artificial beauty.
"He kept this picture of your father by himself, and when he comes back, you can ask him again!" Fang Monan hurriedly said, "Hurry up and go to bed, wake up and continue to 'work' for me!" She can't let the baby continue to ask two questions, some questions are not easy to answer.
Fang Monan watched the two obediently cover the quilt, hold the photo album, and soon fell asleep. And she sat cross-legged at the end of the bed and continued her practice.
About an hour later, Fang Monan and the three of them got up and continued what they had not done in the morning, watering, fertilizing, and loosening the soil for the fruits and vegetables in the greenhouse, and cutting off the yellowed and yellowed ones with scissors to make them grow better.
Before I knew it, the sun was moving westward, and it was four o'clock in the afternoon, Bai Qing rode a bicycle, and Lei Xiao came non-stop after school.
When Bai Qing and the others came, Fang Monan and the others were still working and busy in the greenhouse! "Mom, what are they doing here? It's fun, I'm fun, okay! ”
Bai Qing patted Lei Xiao's back and said, "You be honest!" ”
"Oh!" Lei Xiao replied with reluctance on his face.
Fang Monan saw Bai Qing and them coming, stood up, patted the soil on his hands, and walked over from the ridge. "Aunt Lei is here, let's sit and talk."
"Okay!" The three of them walked inside, and there was a clearing inside with four small rattan chairs and a small rattan square table on it. There were also tea-making utensils on the small square table, and the teapot on the small red clay stove was overflowing with water, apparently boiling.
Fang Monan first went to the faucet to wash the ashes and pounced on the ground, shook it twice, and after it was naturally air-dried, he made a gesture of please and asked Aunt Lei to sit down. She just started making tea, but it wasn't kung fu tea, what she needed to work in the greenhouse was a big bowl of tea to replenish water and quench her thirst.
The winter sun shines through the glass, warm and comfortable, full of green, smelling the sweet fragrance of melons and fruits, Aunt Lei took the teacup handed by Fang Monan, took a sip gently, and glanced at her. Fang Monan blinked, indicating receipt.
Fang Monan picked up the teacup and took a sip and said, "Boy, you really want to learn martial arts." ”
Lei Xiao sat on a small chair, his waist straight, and said loudly, "Yes, I want to think very much." ”
Fang Monan said again, "The martial arts we learn are not those unfathomable kung fu on TV, and of course they are not for you to dominate in school." In that case, I think it's better to be spared! ”
Lei Xiao gave Fang Monan a roll of his eyes, "Of course I know that the martial arts in the TV series are fake!" If there were, my father's comrades-in-arms wouldn't have to be sacrificed. ”
"Oh!" Bai Qing asked curiously, "How do you know this?" ”
"Humph! Secrets among men! Lei Xiao tilted his head and said stinky fart.
"Humph!" Bai Qingmei's eyes narrowed slightly, if the stupid son didn't say it, wouldn't she know? This old Lei actually said this to the child, and he was not afraid of scaring the child, so he went back to interrogate him well, and what nonsense did he talk to the child?
"What we learn is only to strengthen the body and protect ourselves when we encounter danger." Fang Monan paused for a moment and said, "Learning martial arts is very hard, without that perseverance, it's better to be exempt!" I'll let Dabao tell you about his personal experience. Saying that, she beckoned to Dabao and said, "Come to Dabao, come over and give Lei Xiao a good talk." ”
Dabao heard Fang Monan's call, held a watering can in his hand, rinsed his hands left and right, shook them, and let his hands dry naturally. Then he came to Fang Monan, "What you say, it's better to do it!" It's more intuitive that way. Dabao looked at Lei Xiao provocatively and said, "Let's take a step!" ”
"Good! Just let me see how I am. Lei Xiao stood up as he said and walked to Dabao's side.
Dabao stood still in a standard posture, Lei Xiao learned his way to zama step, it seemed that he had not pricked before, the action was not right, Fang Monan stepped forward and taught Lei Xiao to zama step hand in hand.
After Fang Monan looked at Lei Xiao's standard movements, he stepped back and sat on the rattan chair, Bai Qing smiled, "If you want to say that this kid's perseverance is not my praise, it is that he has been trained by his father since he was a child." Winter practice Sanjiu, summer practice Sanfu, that is wind and rain. ”
In the first five minutes, Lei Xiao's posture can still be standard, huh! Stronger than the fat man and Dabao, his movements were gradually a little deformed, Fang Monan was holding a bamboo pole in his hand and pressed it on Lei Xiao's shoulder, so that he couldn't move at all. "If you can't speak, I'll let you go."
"Yes! If you can't, just speak. Dabao tilted his head sideways, a relaxed smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Humph!" Lei Xiao didn't look over, "Isn't it just Zamabu!" I won't lose to you. ”
"Be ambitious! I don't know if I'll be able to hold on. Fang Menan said with a smile.
Fifteen minutes later, Lei Xiao was still insisting, because the bamboo pole was pressing on his shoulder, he couldn't get up, the center of his body moved down, and before he could sit on the ground, Fang Monan's bamboo pole fell down and landed on his thigh.
Although she wears a thick winter dress, the sound of the bang still hears in Bai Qing's ears, just like hitting her heart. It hurts!
Bai Qing looked at Lei Xiao's legs trembling, and said loudly, "Xiao'er, it's not good......"
Lei Xiao's eyes widened, "Mom......"
"Good...... I won't say anything, you can continue to zama! Bai Qing clearly saw a trace of perseverance in the child's eyes, which was a firmness that no one could touch.
After another five minutes, Fang Monan nodded with satisfaction, she did this, not only to test Lei Xiao, but also to test her mother. Because many parents are reluctant to let their children suffer, the children haven't said anything! They gave up first.
"Alright, stand up!" Fang Monan took the bamboo pole away and let Lei Xiao stand up. But Lei Xiao fell straight to the ground, which frightened Bai Qing.
Fang Monan stepped forward and took Lei Xiao's hand, the aura was injected into his body, and he swam around before coming out, at this time Lei Xiao stood up, his body was already much looser, otherwise it would not be better for two or three days. (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
