Chapter 14: Wounded Parting
Fang's mother smiled comfortably, as if with this rapeseed, Fang Yemei would not starve.
"What? Or decided to go? Father Fang also entered the room at this time, and he thought that Mother Fang had persuaded Yemei.
"Dad, don't worry, 'people move to live, trees move to die', young people don't go outside, there will be no more chances." Fang Yemei naughtily saluted Fang's father, "When I'm old, I'll sit down in peace, so that there will be fun to recall." ”
"Then, Mother Fang, let's give it to her." Dad Fang obviously compromised as well.
"Haha, Dad, Mom betrayed you a long time ago."
So, on this night of intense emotion, the family burst into laughter.
However, this night, the whole family couldn't sleep, Fang Yemei couldn't sleep, she was both excited and a little uneasy.
Fang's mother and Fang's father were all worried, and Fang's mother wanted to get up from time to time and then tell Fang Yemei a few words.
Fang Yemei's younger brother went to high school in a small county town, although his grades were worse than Fang Yemei's, but they were okay in comparison. This younger brother is still quite righteous, and once said to Fang Yemei, you have dropped out of school, and for the sake of fairness, I have to drop out of school too. was persuaded by Fang Yemei to go back to school: No! Although, I also long to go to school, but at this time and that time, three people can't afford to provide you with one study? Also, his younger brother's luck is better than Fang Yemei, and when he goes to high school, the family's economy is much more relaxed than before. I don't know if my mother's illness was more careful about her diet, or because those herbs were effective, she was actually controlled. Besides, it is more difficult for two people to provide for two than three for one.
Fang Yemei actually only had 800 yuan in her pocket, she saved 300 yuan, and her parents gave 500.
Fang's mother's worries are not unreasonable, 800 yuan can still be of some use in the countryside, and 10 yuan in the countryside can take a long time, once you get to the big city, what can 800 yuan do?
Fang Yemei believes in her adaptability, others can take root in a big city, but she can't be a normal girl with a high IQ? Big cities have high consumption, but this also means that there are many opportunities, since drinking water costs money, that is, selling water can also make money. Fang's mother thinks more negatively, but she always thinks backwards and is more optimistic.
Fang Yemei was lying on the bed, and couldn't help but think of Zhang Da: Is he already at work now? She knew that Zhang Da left Xizihu Village this morning, and heard that Zhang Da's father was the village chief of their village when he didn't move over, and Zhang Da was the only son of the village elder.
"We can't get together...... Fang Yemei thought so, a little melancholy, but she was not as grief-stricken as ordinary people.
Grandma heard that Yemei was going to work in the city, but she was not anxious at all, in her eyes, her granddaughter was a capable girl. Grandma encourages Yemei to work in the city, and even though she has never been to the city herself, she is convinced of her granddaughter's abilities.
If she had a choice, and she lived in her granddaughter's time, she would have made such a choice.
Grandma shoved the bracelet into Yemei's hand again.
"Child, grandma can't give you anything, grandma only has this bracelet......"
Yemei pushed back again.
"Grandma, don't expose your wealth, it's not safe to go to the big city with a bracelet......"
Grandma was helpless, put away the bracelet with some regret, and looked at Yemei with blazing eyes: "Baby, although grandma believes in your ability, but if you really can't get along and come back, your hometown will never starve you." ”
Since Yemei opened the club, her grandmother's life has changed drastically, or it can be said that she has opened up a new world. Yes, she became a little celebrity in the village, everyone praised her good paperwork skills, and in the club, she also became a master.
Therefore, grandma has more and more trust and love for Yemei.
She always felt that Yemei had the shadow of her girlhood, stubborn, unwilling to accept the status quo, aggressive, and wanted to break free.
But she couldn't break free of the shackles herself, her parents didn't let her go to school, and arranged her marriage...... She lacks outside support.
When she first got married, she was annoyed, she didn't like to cook, she didn't like to clean all day, she didn't like to entertain Noldor's relatives on New Year's holidays...... But she can't do anything at all, if she doesn't do this, she will be blamed and laughed at by the people around her, and she will be scolded by her mother-in-law......
Her favorite thing to do is to cut paper, and many times, she exchanges jobs with the women in the village, she helps them cut paper, they help her pick up vegetables and cook.
But at that time, everyone didn't pay much attention to paper-cutting, just to complete the task, and to pay tribute to the gods and New Year's sacrifices. It's just that after the exchange, the courtyard is clean, the housework is not affected, and the family is not easy to say anything about her, which can be regarded as stealing half a cent. Otherwise, if you don't know how to do housework, you will really be laughed at and scolded.
Grandma and Yemei's mother never quarreled, Yemei's mother was not rebellious, she was a traditional housewife, and she cleaned up the house. Grandma knew her temperament and separated early, so as not to drag down her son and daughter-in-law. Grandma didn't say much, let alone care about the gossip of her son and daughter-in-law, and didn't rely on them, so they quarreled at all.
Kid, fly, fly, fly now, when will you fly?
Grandma was a little lucky, glad that her granddaughter didn't marry Zhang Da early.
Grandma sometimes feels ridiculous that she is so old and rebellious, but she really hopes that her granddaughter will live a different life, at least not to follow in the footsteps of the previous generation of women.
Before the trip began, the grandparents and grandchildren began to look forward to the future.
Falling out of love, what is it?
"Is it a blessing for Seon to lose his horse?"
"If you lose the east, you will reap the mulberry."
A new world, new challenges, and new hopes await Yemei, and she doesn't have the leisure to let herself be sad.
Fang Yemei's high school classmate Chen Jingling had just spoken to her on the phone not long ago, and there were only one or two landline telephones in Xizihu Village at that time, one from the village secretary's house and the other from the village shopkeeper's wife. Chen Jingling had a pager, Fang Yemei called her, and she called back. Chen Jingling had just graduated from college and was about to go to Hangzhou to find a job, so Fang Yemei decided to go to Hangzhou with her. Of course, relatively speaking, she is a little less entangled, but she has already made a plan, no matter what she does, she is not picky about her work, and she will find a place to settle first. After all, he can't compare with Chen Jingling, and he can't stand at a high starting point from the beginning.
The next day, the sky was bright, Fang Yemei got up, she was not as lucky as Zhang Da, there was a special car to pick up, Xizihu Village was not open to the road at that time, and she had to walk to the pavilion five kilometers away to take the car. The car that picked up Zhang Da was waiting five kilometers away. Fang Yemei had to wait for the bus, and there were only two buses passing by a day, and if she missed the one in the morning, she would have to wait for three or four hours. So, she had to leave early.
