Volume 1 Spring Bamboo Shoots Chapter 49 Pumpkin Yellow

The love between men and women is a good thing, but it has to be reasonable and legal, messing with the relationship between men and women is a matter of life, and it is a scandal to be caught, if it is an ordinary member, as long as no one in the two families is entangled and reported, it is generally over, but it will stink and be laughed at. If it is a party member www.biquge.info cadre, it will be serious, and it will be expelled from the party, removed from office, and delegated, and criticized and sentenced.

The atmosphere of Xinghua Village has always been good, although there are occasional romantic affairs exposed, it is also a consensual affair, but there is no real evidence for the rumors, and the people do not raise officials and do not hold them accountable, no one wants to take the mouse to meddle in things, just as a conversation after tea and dinner.

This time it was different. The orphans and widows are already pitiful, the girl is still an adult girl, and the blind old mother almost went to the Hades banquet, bullying the orphans and widows, and making her belly bigger, ruining people's lives.

Liu Yingguo knows very well in his heart that this matter has now been exposed, Chen Zhuxiu is looking for a short circuit and hanging, the movement is so big, it is impossible to cover it up, if it is not handled well, this hard-working woman will eventually find a short circuit.

God is such a bully. This woman is already bitter enough, why do you still treat her like this?

Liu Yingguo couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Chen Zhuxiu is notoriously miserable in Xinghua Village.

She died of both parents when she was a child, from the age of 16 to the age of 16 to the age of 42 to give birth to a full sister, she gave birth to a total of ten children, six sons and four daughters. Tan Gucai is an outsider, with no mountains and no land, only two thatched houses, relying on craftsmanship and helping people to work for a short time to make a living. In the Republic of China, the poor were indeed so bitter that they couldn't swallow it, there were those who couldn't eat the next meal, but Jiang Zhuxiu and the chicken mother-in-law gave birth like eggs one after another, and the days became more and more difficult, and the children in front of them were hungry and sick, and they became short-lived ghosts one after another, and in addition to the one in the stomach in forty-nine years, one of the six firstborn did not survive, and they all died at the age of a few years.

During the land reform, the land was divided, and life was turned upside down, and life was better. Chen Zhuxiu gave birth to a son, the two of them were very baby, named Tan Fentian, and then she gave birth to a boy and a girl in succession, but they all died young, the daughter fell into the well behind the house when she was three years old and drowned, and the son was eight years old when he had a numbness and fever and was not saved.

The last child she gave birth to at the age of forty-two, and her brother was nine years older than her.

Chen Zhuxiu gave birth to ten children, mother and son are heart-to-heart, she has to be sad and sad for a long time every time she dies, her eyes are really crying, and her tears are flowing into a river. Always crying, my eyes can't stand it, I haven't been very good, but the suffering has not let her go, in 1970, the twenty-year-old Fentian grew into a tall and good offspring, and a serious illness ruthlessly took his life. Two days before he died, he said to his mother, "Mother, I want to eat the golden old pumpkin."

It was May, and the pumpkins in the garden had just bloomed and produced tender pumpkins. Fentian was unwilling to die of illness.

Chen Zhuxiu cried all day and night, hoarse, and blinded a pair of eyes.

Two months later, in July, the pumpkin was ripe, yellow and brilliant like a round drum, and she sat in front of the door with a pumpkin in her hand and cried out:

My little one! My meat! The pumpkin is yellow! Come back and sip the pumpkin......

Since then, every year when the pumpkin is ripe, she will sit in front of the door and cry day by day, calling her son to come back and eat the pumpkin.

A year later, in 1971, her husband Tan Gucai, who was eight years older than her, died of illness, and her twelve-year-old daughter Tan Manmei dropped out of school and returned home, taking on the burden of taking care of her blind mother.

With such a family, such a hard-working mother and daughter, who would be ruthless enough to hurt them?

She is only seventeen years old, and this unmarried pregnancy in the rice field, whether the man raped, seduced Jian, or for some other reason, he must not be spared.

The people in the house all had the same idea: they must find out the scoundrel and seek justice for the orphans and widows.

In the next room, Chen Zhuxiu cried so much that she choked, the women's director Chen Yufen and the women's captain of the sixth team worked hard to persuade and induce, and finally even used threats, but the girl was dumb and didn't speak, just lowered her head and cried. This can stump a room of people, angry and helpless, no one expected such a situation.

Liu Yingguo was very annoyed, he blushed his face, glanced at everyone and said, "If this idiot doesn't open his mouth, can't we find out?" Which of the people on the team who were closer to her, regardless of gender, all called me, and asked one by one, and I couldn't believe that I couldn't find this animal. ”

There is no impermeable wall in this world, and no matter how much paper can't contain fire, just like that movie line says, the eyes of the masses are bright. After visiting and inquiring, things had a clue that night, and the target was another difficult household with one person and one team, Tan Gusen, a single with the same surname.

This Tan Gusen is in his thirties, and although he is not in the same room as the Manmei family, after all, he has the same surname Tan, and he is still an ancestor if he goes back to the tenth or twenty generations. In terms of seniority, the full girl has to call him uncle.

This Tan Gusen looks honest and responsible, because his parents are weak and sick, they are two medicine jars, and the family is very difficult, and he has not been able to marry a wife. When the elder brother and father died one after another, the elder brother and father died one after another, becoming an orphan and widow.

Since the land reform has been divided into fields and land, all the way from the junior society to the senior society to the big canteen, the people have finally lived a good life with enough to eat. But the next three years of natural disasters have made people go back to the past, Haocai Xinghua Village is a mountainous area, there is a shortage of food and there is no food, and the wild bark fern roots can still be found on the mountain, I heard that there are places outside the mountain that starved to death, Xinghua Village did not starve to death, and it was difficult to survive.

At that time, the countryside restricted self-reserved land, property was collectively owned, and most of the commodities were purchased by means of planned distribution, and life was still difficult, and food became a big problem.

As the saying goes, relying on the mountain to eat the mountain, relying on the water to eat the water. Xinghua Village is backed by the water, and the fish in the reservoir belong to the state, and there are special guards to guard it, and everyone can not move, so it can only be backed by the mountain.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, most of the ancient trees on the mountain have been cut down, and those left are some that are not too big, and later the state called for "afforestation, greening the motherland," strictly prohibiting indiscriminate felling, and the slope of a tree is divided into a forbidden mountain, which is managed by the forest farms in various places, and it has been quite effective in these years, the mountains are fertile, the trees grow fast, and now there are a lot of big trees on the mountain.

The government strictly controls timber and strictly prohibits private buying and selling, which makes it a scarce commodity. The villagers had to use it to build houses, to use the furniture and dowry of marrying relatives and daughters, and to replace old pots and buckets, all of which were inseparable from timber, and the black market trade came into being. Occasionally, people in the village took the risk of cutting down trees to sell them.

Tan Gusen in order to treat his parents, raise young nephews and nieces, owe a butt of accounts, do the same, and from time to time go up the mountain in the middle of the night to steal trees, seeing that the mother and daughter are really difficult, really sometimes they can't get the money to buy salt, so they want to help her, take her when stealing trees, cut a small one for her to carry down the mountain, and he will help sell it, and you can exchange it for two or three yuan each time. Don't underestimate the two or three yuan, for the full of girls, mothers and daughters, but it is no less than life-saving money.
