Beautiful scenery in the charming valley

(Theme song)

White clouds in the sky! Drift to the east, drift to the west.

Floating around, floating to where?

The green water on the ground flows! The flow goes south to the north.

Where does the flow go and go?

White clouds and green water, fluttering yo flowing!

Floating in the chest, flowing in the heart.

The birds in the woods sing! Sweet that crispy,

Sweet and intoxicating.

Butterflies dancing among flowers! Fluttering that flying,

Dancing and attracting people.

Sing and dance! Ahh

Dance, sing! Ahh

Hi hi! Ahh

(How many times he kissed each other, even he can't remember.) But what he remembers clearly is that the last time he fell in love with a widow who was five years older than him. It was she who gave him his first taste of a woman and ended the fate of a bachelor. )

City B in Province A is a city with coal as its main product. A direct derivative of this staple product is the miners who dig for coal. Miners are a large but not powerful group. People on the surface are at their hardest, and it's usually when they're working hardest. They are far from riches, but they are close to danger. They are great, because they are willing to give, and those who do not know how to give are small; They are lovely, because they have dreams, and those who don't have dreams are pitiful. But life always likes to joke with people, it is precisely such a great and lovely person, but it is difficult to find a wife. Take Lao Liu as an example, he looks good, has a nose and eyes; The size is not small, the shoulders are big and the waist is thick. It's just that he can't get the favor of a woman, just because he is a miner. He began to go on a blind date when he was 20 years old and went on a blind date until he was in his forties, and he turned from a small willow to an old willow. How many times they kissed, even he couldn't remember. But what he remembers clearly is that the last time he fell in love with a widow who was five years older than him. It was she who gave him his first taste of a woman and ended the fate of a bachelor. The reason for the deal is simple, among the many women who have met, only the widow is willing to stay as his daughter-in-law. The reason why women are willing to marry is that men are willing to marry, and there are not too many emotional factors mixed with it. is such a reluctant couple, crystallizing the suffering Liu Mian.

In reality, there is a regret that is more painful than losing, that is, something has been obtained, but it is impossible to read its true meaning. It's like when we were kids, we solemnly stuffed a hard candy into our mouths, and we were going to taste it with relish. But before he could chew it, he accidentally swallowed it. At that time, I must have felt much more depressed than when I couldn't get this candy. And Lao Liu's wife is such a woman who makes the man who touches her feel depressed. Of course, there's more to the truth than being depressed. She married three husbands in her life, and her original partner was a Kuomintang officer who died on the battlefield of resistance against Japan; The successor is a stinky intellectual, who died at the scene of cultural criticism; As for the third Lao Liu, he died in a mining accident four years after marrying her. When he left, his only daughter, Liu Mian, was only three years old.

The husband died one after another, and the woman thought that she was the one who brought the eight characters. In addition, I was almost fifty years old at the time, and I felt that I really couldn't stand the toss anymore. So he insisted on being a widow. After that, even if the matchmaker crashes the door, he will ignore it.

The death of his father did not bring much grief to Xiao Yanagimian. Because grief has always been the preserve of adults, not children. When the mine manager Wang Jinwang sent a wreath to mourn, she said innocently: "I want to pick a beautiful one and give it to my mother!" The innocent words made Wang Kuang cry silently, and apologized to Liu Mian's mother: "I'm sorry! Sister-in-law, you have to mourn. We have the responsibility and difficulty to come to me in the mine, and I will solve it for you. Mine Chief Wang wiped away his tears and continued: "Little Nizi is good! I want to send her to study, go to kindergarten, and go to university in the future. After speaking, he reached out and wanted to hug Xiao Liumian. Uncle crying, shame yes! I don't want you to hug me. After Xiao Liumian finished speaking, he giggled and ran away.

Although Liu Mian's mother is about to be half a hundred years old, she is still a, and her charm still exists. From the lightness of her weak willow support, it is not difficult to imagine her grace back then. is such an imaginary woman, just such a fateful woman. This confirms the essence of the ancient Chinese saying. She believed in fate and had no intention of fighting it. When misfortune befell her, she pleaded with the heavens more than a thousand times in her heart not to let nightmares haunt her. But God either turned a blind eye or turned a deaf ear, and the result was not as she wished. Several partings of life and death pierced her heart like a pinprick. She thought about suicide. I used to be reluctant to give myself up, but now I am reluctant to Liu Mian. She wants to raise her daughter as an adult. It's a mother's responsibility. Even the responsibilities of being a father have to be borne by herself. Because the father of the child is gone, and will never come back.

The pension of 200,000 yuan is a huge amount of money, compared to that era, it is a heavy number in Liu Mian's mother's heart. After all, it is soaked in the blood of the deceased. She couldn't bear to use the money, so she decided to spend it all on her daughter. Ordinary living expenses are earned by their own efforts. She felt that this was the only way to be at ease. She sent Liu Mian to the mine-run kindergarten, and then asked the mine manager Wang to enter the coal washing plant. Every day, in addition to going to work and picking up and dropping off her children, she also goes to pick up coal and grow vegetables. But he must have brought Liu Mian with him. And often tell Liu Mian stories at such times, telling a man's story, in which there is a woman's nostalgia for her husband, and there is also a girl's expectation of her father.

Orphans and widows depend on each other for their lives.
