Chapter 75: Village Diary

In his wife's maiden home, he lived for a period of time, and as long as he could stay with his wife, it was very comfortable to live in the countryside.

Conan thought to himself, just be at ease, that's how life is. After living in the city for a long time, they get bored and don't want to stay in the city, and many people rush to breathe in the air that is not fresh and enjoy the quiet time in the countryside, which is very good.

The wife is happy when she arrives at her mother's house, it is an honor to hold a big belly in her mother's house, and it is also a kind of show-off, and more importantly, the fetus is very good here, the air is good, quiet, and the important thing is the care of the parents, and the warmth of family affection.

Conan couldn't understand his wife's thoughts, and sometimes he felt a little excessive, he ran to his mother's house two times in three days, always contributing to the passenger transport company, and the tickets at home became a bunch, this pile of tickets, or Ji Conan asked his wife to keep them, and he didn't take his wife to usually discard, if you count the discarded ones, or didn't find the tickets that the conductor asked for, it would be more. People travel and take the bus, there is no sense of asking for a ticket, and they feel that they can reach their destination after getting on the bus and paying the money. When a conductor sells tickets, they actually sell seats. Sometimes it's the standing position that is sold. There are one-legged positions, two-legged ones, and two-and-a-half-legged positions, and there are many varieties.

Conan's mother-in-law loves to cook, and she usually cooks and washes the dishes herself. My father-in-law loves to eat dumplings, so he makes them himself, of course, he eats them himself. In terms of hygiene, my father-in-law pays great attention to details, and generally uses his own dishes and chopsticks, and does not mix them with everyone. Others are self-deed. It's probably a habit he's developed over the years.

The daughter-in-law's maiden home is an immigrant village. In the past, there was a large river in front of the village, and the water of the river was led down from the Han River, forming a long puddle. There is an ancient post road that connects the great northwest. From Nam-gun to Gwanghwa, this is the only way to go.

During World War II, it was a place where Japanese soldiers passed.

Not to mention the tragedy of the war at that time, the slaughter of the city alone was enough. In addition to the slaughter of the city, there is the destruction of the village. The village is gone, the people are ravaged, and only this river remains, flowing quietly. Blood stained the river, and the famous Heishui River became a red river, and since then the Heishui River has been renamed and changed to the Hongshui River, of course, it also has other meanings.

Some of these stories can only be told from the elderly. I don't know, I don't know, I ask and record it, and I know what's going on and what I went through back then.

During the construction of the water conservancy project, dams were built here to intercept the river water, which could be used for power generation and irrigation. Floods have become water conservancy, and people are naturally happy.

Later, the village was revitalized, and the people who survived thrived and flourished.

The people of the village stayed in the village and could not go to the city. The only way to get to the city was to serve as a soldier or study. There are no shortcuts.

To be a soldier is not only to be able to be a soldier, but also to be skilled, and when you encounter the right opportunity in the future, you will hope to stay in the city.

When I was young, I spent a very important time in the village peacefully, but it was also very pleasant. After all, the water here, the short Matsuoka here, the highlands and low ravines here are all beautiful landscape paintings that make a lasting impression.

After several years of hard work, some bought houses outside and did not return to quiet villages. Some of them make a living outside and rent a house, but they are safe.

In short, the number of people in the village gradually decreased, and the number of people in the city gradually expanded. The villages seem deserted and lonely, and the cities become impetuous and prosperous. Conan longs to live in the countryside, enjoy that tranquility, cultivate one's self-cultivation, and become a person who has no quarrel with the world.

Ji Conan met his wife's sister in a church in Xiangyang City, and then met his wife, and met his wife in the lower reaches of the Heishui River. Of course, this matter is thanks to her sister's nosyness, if she doesn't care about it, I'm afraid that according to his wife's idea, she is still a leftover girl. Because, she is ashamed to meet any man, and looking at a man is like looking at a beast of prey. She is not extreme, she always feels that good men are in heaven, and all men on earth are eliminated, otherwise why don't you go to heaven?

At that time, his wife came up from the water, she had just attended the first birthday celebration of her female classmate's child, she and Conan were dating by the river, and it happened that the celebration restaurant was on the boat, and the dinner was on the boat, and when Conan went, she had just finished eating, and when she received a call, she got off the boat. Conan was on the shore, watching the woman with long braids come up from the river, and he took a fancy to it at a glance. Isn't this Xiaofang? was a very popular song back then, and the song title was "Xiao Fang".

Appointments in the future are frequent. It's just that they didn't break through the last line of defense together. Later, they got married, and then their wife became pregnant, and the two were still in love. The two of them both returned to their wives' parents' homes, and in any case, they could let the left-behind people in the village know about it, which would make their father-in-law and mother-in-law happy for a while. The father-in-law and mother-in-law are happy on the surface, but they actually look down on Ji Conan, and always feel that he has no money and is poor.

The father-in-law and mother-in-law are in good health, which makes Conan very happy, because this saves a lot of medical expenses, and Ji Conan is already stretched, once the second elder is sick and has no other financial resources, isn't it embarrassing? It will make them look down on them even more.

The second elder is in good health, and he hates to be cheerful when he interacts with people, and when his neighbors have troubles, they like to find their mother-in-law to comment.

They are both mothers-in-law, but they are very different.

Wang Quanye's mother-in-law in Quancun, the chopping eyes were sluggish and wandering, with a sluggish expression, flashed in Ji Conan's mind, as clear as a movie. She couldn't speak at all, and she didn't know how to deal with people. The ragged appearance and timid expression left a deep impression on Conan, which is rare in the world, and you may be able to see it from the movie, it is a play, it is a work, after processing, seeing the original image, it is indeed shocking.

Wang Quan's mother-in-law and Ji Conan's mother-in-law are so different! What else is there besides the arrangement of fate?

My father-in-law has been a soldier for ten years, and he moves quickly, and compared with old people of the same age, he is not at all like his age. That's the difference between people.

Conan, who has seen the world outside, is still much stronger than his peers who don't come out of the four doors.

Conan's classmates, who have nothing to do after graduating from high school, play at home, play chess every day, and spend a leisurely life are okay, but his vision is not wide, and there is no resonance when he talks to him. His classmate's sister, who used to be an amateur author, likes to write scripts, mainly writing TV series, but she hasn't heard of success, but she is still writing, I don't know if it's successful now. He himself basically has no hope for the future, and he doesn't know how to live in the future? From an outsider's point of view, he seems to have nothing to do all day long, and from his family, there is no way to count on his parents' pension life, after all, it is not a long-term solution. Once the parents die, the pension is stopped, and there is no financial resources, how can you live?

Conan thinks that their sister and brother are very smart, after all, they are behind the gate, and their Lao Tzu is the best among their contemporaries, but in their generation, they have not achieved anything. The times create heroes, not an empty word.

Conan's classmates played chess and mingled with the old people, and they got along very well, and those old people had some influence on him. The stories of the old people are rich, and each old man is a novel, the author is themselves, but the writer is nowhere to be found.

If Conan's classmates learned the stories behind the old men by playing chess, they would definitely gain a lot of knowledge, but unfortunately his classmates only focused on playing chess, and ignored other things.

After Conan's classmates graduated from high school, they gradually lost contact. Even if he knew where he lived, he didn't want to be around, and this autistic personality might stay with him for the rest of his life.

Then again, his wife's childhood companion is similar to Conan's childhood companion, there are always people who want to succeed, to fail, to be happy, and to be miserable. These things are closely related to the fate of people.

The village is still the same village, the land is still the same land, the high post is still the high hill, the pine forest is still the pine forest, the unchanged heaven and earth, what has changed is the hearts of the people. In the eyes of his classmates, Ji Conan is also a nerd, pedantic, old-fashioned, stubborn, stubborn, and unproductive. He was looked down upon by his classmates, not only now, but always been, because he has always been poor. He went to poverty alleviation, everyone laughed, he was so poor, and he also went to poverty alleviation, first solve his own food and clothing! Ji Conan just went his own way and let others do it.

Conan spent a few days at his parents-in-law's place, and the weather gradually became a little cooler, and the Mid-Autumn Festival had passed, so he felt that the cool breeze at night was particularly strong.

"I'm going home. I'm about to go to work. Conan said to his wife.

"Okay. I'll tell my parents. His wife said.

Conan's parents-in-law were certainly a little sad. I am always a little reluctant, and I always want my daughter to stay with me for two more days. But they still know the general situation and know that this is not their home, but Xiangyang City is their home. As he grew older, Conan preferred to have a home in the township, and he did not miss the bustle of the city. He believes that the luxurious life is theirs, and so is the liveliness; The simple life is his, and so is the quietness.

The morning bus should get up early. When the rooster crows again, the mother-in-law comes and calls Conan that they are up. The village was still quiet, the sun had not yet risen, the stars in the sky had not receded, the starlight was gradually dimming, and the eastern sky was showing the whiteness of the fish's belly. The coolness is noticeable and the skin feels very comfortable.

The mother-in-law prepared breakfast, and the father-in-law got up early, went to the cow house to see the cattle and calves, and added some forage and some feed.

Recently, more cattle have been lost in the countryside, and without the knowledge of the owner, the cattle thieves take the cattle away, get them into carts, and pull the cattle away.

These thieves have a lot of experience in stealing cattle, which is difficult to prevent, there is no way, some ploughing cattle are stolen, and the villagers suddenly have no help to plough the land, and they are in trouble. The villagers resented the actions of the cattle thieves.

"Be vigilant and beware of thieves. Inspect the cattle house to see if there are any loopholes or if the walls need to be reinforced. Conan said to his father-in-law.

"It's okay here. The transportation is inconvenient, the thieves come to our village, it is difficult, the traffic conditions are poor, no one wants to come. Including thieves. His father-in-law said.

"Even so, it's better to be cautious." Conan said.

"That is, our cow has just given birth to a calf, so be careful. No one is missing. Your brother is not at home, and I have to protect this cow. Father-in-law said.

"That's good. As long as the thieves are not given a place and a chance, so that the thieves have no way to do anything, it is good. Conan said.

After breakfast, Conan took his daughter-in-law and the two old men to say goodbye and walked towards Jin Gang. Jin Gang is a wasteland in the former Buba Village and Hoububa Shop, and the morning train has to pass here, so Conan and the others don't have to go to the station to get on the bus, and they don't have to walk a little less.

There was still mud on the road, and after walking a few steps, some mud was stuck on his feet, and Conan rubbed his feet on the green grass beside the road, not taking away a little dirt, so that the weight of his feet was reduced, and he traveled lightly, and he walked briskly.

Conan saw a girl hurrying in front of him, and his wife saw it, so he asked her, "Xiaojuan, where are you going?" ”

Xiaojuan looked back and said, "Oh, it's the second aunt." I'm going to school. ”

"Why do you go to school at this time?" Conan's wife asked.

"Just after the Mid-Autumn Festival, school has started, I can't be late, otherwise, it will affect my learning." Xiaojuan said.

"How many days off do you have for the Mid-Autumn Festival?" Conan said.

"Leave it for three days."

"Where do you go to school?"

"In County No. 1 Middle School."

The three of them were waiting for the bus in Jin Gang. After a while, the car came. Conan's wife beckoned, and the car stopped, and they got into it.

The bus has to go to the starting station and let the people waiting in the station get on the bus.

Conan was puzzled that the car did not arrive at the station, got on the bus in the middle, and then went to the starting station, why didn't he wait for the car to depart from the starting station, and then get on the train at Jin Gang?

With this question in mind, Conan asked his wife. Unexpectedly, Xiaojuan said: "Get on the bus here, there are seats to sit on, and when the bus arrives at the starting station, there are basically no seats there, so I have to stand on the bus and shake all the way into the city." ”

"That's right, get on the bus here. Follow the car to carry people, the first strike is stronger, can reduce the hardship of the journey. In addition, after the Mid-Autumn Festival, there are many students returning to school, and if they don't get on the bus in the middle, there will be no seats when the bus returns. Conan's wife said.

Conan thought about it, this is the truth, and he figured out the meaning of getting on the bus halfway.

Sure enough, when the bus arrived at the starting station, there were indeed many students waiting. The sun had risen, and it was shining brightly.

After the autumn rains, it is a rare good weather, the autumn is high and cool, it is more comfortable to see everything, and it is the harvest season again, and people start to get busy. After the autumn harvest, when the wheat is planted, it can be temporarily put to an end, and those who should go to the city to work will go to work, generally for short-term work, and for those who should do business. In short, people are not idle, and once they are idle, it is considered a sin. Unless it is snowing heavily and the weather is freezing, it is the time to rest at home, and at that time, it is a little more relaxed.

Conan sat firmly in the Diaoyutai platform, and some of the students were already out of seats and standing in the hallway.

They were right, it was indeed more secure to get on the bus halfway.

When the car arrived in the township, it suddenly stopped leaving, and a young man wearing a thick gold necklace around his neck stood in front of the car, and the driver got out of the car and was talking to the "thick necklace".
