The policy of contracting land to households was finally implemented in this small ravine, and every household had land to plant, and everyone rejoiced, and the land was divided according to the population, and they really became the owners of the land. As if endowed with a mysterious power, everyone is full of energy, getting up early and working tirelessly. Shengyang's family has several laborers, although they also rely on the sky to eat, but in addition to paying public grain every year, the rest can be fully fed.

With the freedom to sow seeds, the freedom to buy and sell, you can kill a fat pig and eat full meat during the New Year. The people in the courtyard of the Zheng family fell into an unprecedented boil, and you chased me to see who collected more grain, raised more livestock, sold silkworm cocoons well, and sold tea at a high price......

In this atmosphere, the first to stand up and raise her eyebrows belonged to Aunt Wang, three sons and a strong man, the crops were not barren, the grains were full, and the golden light shining in the yard was shining with victory. Even Zheng Dongye, who is not good at words, can hum a flower hub and smile when he walks and works every day. Being able to eat enough and have surplus food is something that our ancestors have not done for generations. Looking at the claw-to-claw fat corn cob hanging under the eaves, it was like a dream that satisfied him and intoxicated!

The situation is good, it seems that everything is better, and the fruit trees that used to be sick do not bear fruit and are still very squeamish, and they die at every turn. Now in spring and summer, there are bright red cherries, endless peaches and plums, autumn has densely pressed dates and pears, and chestnuts in the mountains and forests compete to show their big mouths laughing, and wild walnuts are bunches of branches that can't lift their heads.

The mountain, the mountain, the people, the people, but the protagonist of the story has changed, the four seasons of the mountain no longer carry a heavy burden, the pace of moving forward is vigorous and powerful, and the sky above is warm and peaceful. The best yearning in life is realized on the same hands, and I hope that the future will always be so good!

Shengyang's family discussed finding a daughter-in-law for Shengnan, and with conditions like him, only a silly girl in the team, Chen Shaofen, was more suitable. asked the matchmaker to propose marriage, and the other party asked for two deniers of grain as a dowry, and the uncle discussed with Zheng's father that he would help him marry his daughter-in-law no matter what.

So he borrowed enough food for two deniers and married Shaofen into the door in 1984. Although she is stupid, she is not sick, she can eat and sleep, and she has always been disgusted by her mother's family for eating idle meals, and now she has finally gotten rid of it. In 1985, Shengnan's son was born and named Zheng Qiyun, hoping that this child could start the good luck of the whole family.

The Zheng family's life did not lag behind because of the increase in population, in order to eat meat often, they killed two fat pigs a year, and hung three or four rows on the stove, and the fragrance wafting out of each cooked meat could always attract admiration. In the past, exchanging a few pieces of meat for meat tickets was hidden in the most secret place in the house, and only important guests came or could eat it during the New Year's holidays. Even if life is better now, the most I can do is kill one and eat it myself, and sell the rest for money and save it.

Aunt Sun doesn't think so, others are looking forward to having a full house of children and grandchildren, she has everything, so she naturally has to improve her quality of life. The pigweed is beaten by the deaf, the grinding is pushed by the deaf, she is only responsible for commanding, and there is a lot of meat on the dinner table, and everyone is happy.

Shengyang began to become a chef (second-in-command in the kitchen), there were people in the mountains and outside the mountains to set up banquets, and his grandfather let him take charge of the spoon, and slowly, his fame soared, and more and more people invited him to be the chef. His grandfather's house was more than 20 miles away from his house, and when he was old, he simply let him do it alone.

Usually Shengyang does some farm work, and the people in the village have some diseases, as long as he can hold it steadily, he will help treat it for free. This is the teaching of my grandfather, he said that some herbs are wild in the mountains, almost no cost, neighbors, help each other to get along. Some of the parents who had been helped began to educate their children that they could not call one eye in the future, and gradually, he saw a lot of kind eyes.

In 1986, my uncle's illness suddenly became serious, and he died three days after entering the clinic. The whole family fell into grief, and the eldest mother cried that she could finally live a life of food and clothing, but left them before she had time to enjoy it.

A family of eight, the eldest mother takes care of the family and children, the farm work is done by Zheng's father and Shengnan, Shaofen is a fool, she can't do rough work, and Qin's mother is responsible for doing chores. Shengyang began to plan for his livelihood, and when he heard that he could make money digging coal by going out, he decided to follow his fellow villagers to try it.

The family disagreed, first of all, the eldest mother, "You are now a chef, and you can practice medicine, and you will not starve to death for a year with these two things, not to mention that you raise silkworms well." You go out, relying on your dad alone, his skills are afraid that he is not stable. ”

"What your aunt said is that as soon as you go out, these relationships will be broken, and studying medicine will be in vain. Besides, your small body, thin like a grasshopper, how can you do such a heavy job, and the coal mine is dangerous, we don't worry! "Zheng's father is reluctant to let the child go thousands of miles away, although it is to scare the child by being gouged out of his heart, but people are good at being bullied, they are powerless to protect, and they can only be sure if they are tied to their side.

"Work hard, can you make money, there is no shortage of food at home now, but there is no deposit after paying the two taxes, in the future, if Shengli is admitted to university, how to send her to school if she has no money." As for silkworm farming, as long as I manage it as I normally would, there is no problem. The brothers pinned their hopes on Shengli for studying, the eldest brother farmed, and he earned money, so that they could have a surplus.

"A girl's family, just study for a few years, how can you expect to go to any university, dispel this idea as soon as possible!" The eldest mother thought that it was a great favor to promise to pick it up back then, and it was impossible for her to continue reading idle books.

"Auntie, now that I have the ability to help her study, don't stop this matter, and don't talk about those ugly rights and wrongs." He didn't want his hopes to be disappointed, he was a man, and he should support this family.

"Don't blame me for everything, I'm for your good, since you don't like to listen, then go!" The eldest lady said helplessly, and Zheng's father didn't do much to stay. In a few years, he will also get married, and he should be allowed to go out and earn a little more money.

In this way, eighteen-year-old Shengyang walked away with his bags for the first time. When parting, Shengli cried profusely, hugged him and didn't let him go, he was like her talisman, anything delicious and fun would be left to her in advance. Shengyang said that she would write letters often, if she doesn't make money now, she won't be able to study in college in the future, she shook her head and said that if she can't read, she won't read, and she will go out together to earn money in the future. Shengyang was angry, saying that she had discussed it before, and she couldn't change her hexagram, and promised to come back for the New Year to buy new clothes and buy a lot of delicious food, but she still cried and didn't let go.

The shuttle bus was about to start, and Shengyang asked Katsuo to pull her away, and she ran for a long, long distance after the car crying. Far away, how far it should be, far away that can't be caught, she would rather not. Shengyang asked Shengnan to take care of her, and he cried and promised to let him go out and pay attention to safety. Shengyang sat in the car and wiped his tears, he, the monster, is gone, maybe Shengli's life is more stable. When she has money in the future, she will have a profit, stay in the big city, and no longer have to be ridiculed!

I heard that the order on the car and train was very chaotic, so I went to Shanxi with my fellow villagers in fear all the way, and I worked for three years. Every day, his face and body are dyed black, and his back and legs hurt from exhaustion, but he can remember the proud words for him in Shengli's letter and is full of energy, Shengli is the princess of their family, and she must do her best to make her live a better life. Looking at so many companions like him who are not afraid of hardships for their families and livelihoods, they should cherish this opportunity to make money.
