Chapter 5: Life is Hard
"Where's your mother?" Liu Yuanshan asked with concern, Li Fenghuan should have suffered a lot in the past two days.
"My mother is in the house, after paying the money in the morning, my mother fainted when she came back, and she was rescued by a doctor, and she is still lying on the kang." Liu Jinxing explained to his father.
When Liu Yuanshan heard that his wife had fainted, he immediately asked with concern, "How is your mother, is it serious?" ”
Liu Yuanshan knew that Li Fenghuan must have suffered, but he didn't expect it to be so serious.
"Don't worry, I'm much better, there shouldn't be anything serious, just rest well." Liu Jinxing is still relatively clear about his mother's body now.
"Hey..., it's my father and husband who are not qualified." Liu Yuanshan sighed when he heard that his wife was fine, and then said, "Okay, let's go into the house, I'll go see your mother first." ”
After Liu Yuanshan finished speaking, he entered the house, and Liu Jinxing immediately followed his father into the house.
It's a long story, but it's only a few words.
Liu Yuanshan entered the house, saw Li Fenghuan lying on the kang, and saw his pale face and said, "Wife, you have suffered." ”
Someone entered the house Li Fenghuan also knew, but thought it was Liu Jinxing, he was too tired, so he didn't agree, and now when he heard the voice, he opened his eyes and saw Liu Yuanshan, and immediately cried out, "You can figure it out, woo woo......"
"Okay, okay, stop crying, didn't I come out?" Liu Yuanshan saw his wife crying, so he could only hug his wife and comfort her.
"Ahhh......h Woo woo...... "Li Fenghuan cried louder after being hugged by Liu Yuanshan, Li Fenghuan just relied on his strength in the past two days, but now that Liu Yuanshan is back, his strength is all gone."
As the saying goes, it's an indescribable love and spirit, and then it has a power that makes people feel shocked.
Since ancient times, the people did not fight with officials, and when the police took Liu Yuanshan away yesterday, Li Fenghuan was a little broken, because he was a woman, and he was not a very strong person.
Otherwise, the first few times Liu Yuanshan took money, he would not have been swayed by a few words, it was his hard-earned money, he didn't get any benefits, he paid for it, and he didn't get a benefit.
And in the past two days, I borrowed money by myself, and only I knew how tired I was, but when I thought of Liu Jinxing and Liu Yuanshan, I couldn't let this family break up, so I had to grit my teeth and persevere.
But now that Liu Yuanshan is back, he really can't hold on.
When Liu Jinxing entered the house, he also glanced at the door, and his parents who hugged each other were also full of emotion.
His parents are just ordinary farmers, and his mother has no opinions at all, and most of the things are based on his father.
And my father suffered hardships, and most of the sins that belonged to the body were also suffered, but he didn't earn any money, which made things get to this point.
When later generations look at the people of the past, some people will say, they simply can't live, and they just do a little business, isn't it better than farming, and then life will be better?
I didn't have the idea of doing business, how simple it was to do business before, I didn't have a good life, I didn't work hard enough, and I didn't know how to be flexible.
Modern people do feel that it used to be easy to do business, not to mention big business, because the threshold is too high, just say some small business, it seems that it is not difficult to make a fortune, because there are too many people who make money, countless, but is this really the case?
But have you ever considered the environment in which the people in the past grew up?
Speculation and reselling are serious crimes, and although they have long been abolished, they are now allowed to do business with the focus on economic development.
However, thinking can not be changed in a while, especially in rural areas, whose ancestors are mainly farming, and it is very difficult to change the unknown.
Vision determines height, don't look at the past with modern eyes.
If you don't say anything else, just think about what you did before, and you will find that some of the things you did before really felt very naïve, but you still felt very right at the time.
And the start of the business needs capital, what do farmers have? For example, Liu Jin's connoisseurs, who can't pay off their foreign debts, how can they have the capital to do business.
There are those who succeed, then there are those who are destined to fail.
Time passed slowly, maybe Li Fenghuan vented the grievances in his heart, and the crying voice became smaller, and he slowly stopped crying, and then asked, "I only paid 400 yuan, and there is still 200 yuan missing, what should I do with the rest of the money?" ”
"The police at the police station said that it could be suspended for half a year." Liu Yuanshan comforted Li Fenghuan, and then said, "Don't worry, I've come out, everything has me." ”
In fact, Liu Yuanshan can't do anything now, but he is a man, so he can't let his wife deal with it.
"Mom and Dad, let's eat first when the meal is ready." At this time, Liu Jinxing saw that the time was almost up, so he went into the house and asked his parents to eat.
Then set the table and put the hot porridge and pickles on the table.
"Alright, let's eat first." Liu Yuanshan saw that the meal was ready, so he took care of Li Fenghuan to eat first.
Liu Yuanshan looked at the food on the table, it was also mixed, of course, although it was not good, it was much stronger than before, at least he could eat enough.
But to put it well, compared to other people's homes, the clear soup is low and watery, and there is not even a little oil splash.
"Although I don't want to say it, but I still have to mention it, now the family has borrowed money again, plus the money originally owed, there are more than 1,000, and then add the remaining 200 from your father, what should I do with this money?" At the dinner table, Li Fenghuan still brought up this issue.
Because even if you don't want to mention this problem, it is a hurdle that the family can't overcome now.
"Hey...,This year is really difficult.,Usually at this time, don't talk about the crops in the field.,It's been harvested and you can sell it for some money.,Usually you can shovel the land for others.、Harvest crops.,Earn some.,But this year there's nothing." Liu Yuanshan sighed, this year is indeed too difficult.
Liu Jinxing listened to his parents' words beside him, but did not interject, Liu Jinxing understands these situations, and also understands the pain of farmers.
And in this era, farming still has to pay taxes, of course, it is much better than before.
From this point of view, the agricultural tax that has been abolished for thousands of years in later generations, and farming is not only free of money, but also subsidies, and the farmers really want to be sincerely grateful.
At the very least, let the peasants be fed and clothed, and achieve abundant food and clothing, which can be said to be the best moment for the peasants in thousands of years.
From now on, there are already people engaged in contracting, and then Liu Jinxing's parents just go out to plant rice, shovel the land, and so on, and then they can make some money.
It's not easy, you have to set off before dawn, because you have to work at dawn, and then you can't see it at all, you will give up the ground, and when you get home, it's midnight, and then you have to get up early the next day.
There is no concept of time at all, and even if it is good, it is good to make ten dollars a day, and it is not a daily job.
Although in later generations, wages increased, three or four hundred a day was a common thing, even if four or five hundred people could earn it, so it was okay to earn 10,000 yuan a month.
Hearing this, you can't move at every turn, a monthly income of more than 10,000, 15,000 is also okay, this is already something that most people yearn for, but only if you are really engaged in this industry, you will understand the pain of this industry.
After all, looking for a small worker on the construction site, there are only more than 200 a day, and the big worker is different from the small worker, so I won't explain this, but the small worker is very tired, and the rice planting is higher than this salary, you can think about it.
In later generations, Liu Jinxing was just in time, and when he was busy with farming, he went home and heard that the salary was better, of course, when Liu Jinxing was young, he also planted the land, and knew that this work was very hard and very tiring.
He was ready and thought he would persevere, but the reality was really cruel and he didn't persevere.
In later generations, there was a variety show in which stars were planting rice, and some people commented that this life is so beautiful, I really want to live such a life, if I live this life of a star, it is indeed very beautiful, and it is very poetic.
But you live this life as a farmer, that's definitely not what you yearn for, especially planting seedlings, after entering the water in the morning, your waist will always bend over, straighten your waist and rest for an hour for a few minutes, then it is considered enjoyment, and then the wind and sun, soaking in the water and bending over to work, and then at the end of the day, will you know this feeling? It's indescribably tired.
After two days, he saw that someone was kneeling in the water planting seedlings, fainting from heat stroke, waking up and continuing to work, and as soon as he got out of the pool, he lay on the ground and couldn't move.
But even if these situations occur, why do these farmers still work, it is for money, and the core is to "live".
Liu Jinxing only planted rice for two days, but then did not get out of bed for a week, this week, everywhere on the body hurts, if you go to the toilet, you can directly do it in the pit if you don't hold things in your hands.
It may seem like a joke, but it's true, and it's only after you actually do it that you understand what kind of pain it is.
So don't talk about how much money you make by planting rice, it can be said that it is absolute hard-earned money, and even more so for farmers in 98 years, the money is not high, only more than 10 yuan.
"I have no choice but to go out and work." Liu Yuanshan said.
This is not a sudden decision, but I have thought about it in the past two days, and there is no other way than to go out to work.
"But is it okay to go out and work?" Li Fenghuan is still quite worried about this.
For farmers, without technology, connections, and capital, going out to work is the only way out, but this way out.
But for today's farmers, this is really a bit of a scary and hesitant thing.
It is true that after going out to endure hardships and suffering for a year, the wages are not high, and some cannot get wages at all, and the wages of migrant workers have always been a big problem.
The most serious thing is that after the person goes out, there is no news at all, and the family doesn't know what this person is like?
There is one in Liu Jinxing's village, and there is no news until Liu Jinxing is reborn, so the result of this person can be imagined?
