Chapter 1: Life is like a play (ask for collection, ask for recommendation)

Next Chapter

Chen Mingming's mood was not bright at all.

A person is drinking stuffy wine, and he is drinking stuffy wine with half a braised pig's head.

Take a sip of wine and nibble on the pig's head.

I've been drinking it for a while, and there are seven or eight bottles in two or two.

Drinking stuffy alcohol is getting stuffier the more you drink.

The mood is very unpleasant.

Chen Mingliang is an employee of a meat factory in JN, the provincial capital of Dongshan.

Chinese New Year's Eve is thirty-seven years old, born in eighty-three years, a pig, one meter and ninety-four tall, with a dark complexion, a stubble-faced, not at all good-looking, like a wild boar.

He looks like a professional pig killer in the meat factory, he looks like a wild boar, black, thick and strong, and only when he works in the meat factory does he not bury this condition.

As for the income, the whole is okay.

The salary is indeed not high, more than 7,000 a month, and only 5,000 is in hand, which is considered to be below the middle in this provincial capital.

However, when you add in the other income, it's a lot more substantial.

Because Chen Mingliang is still a sports star of the meat factory.

Physical fitness, that's a first-class awesome.

1.94 meters tall and 230 pounds in weight. But there was not a bit of fat on his body, and the tendon meat on his body was like that of a bull.

He is also a gold medal coach in a nearby gym, and his part-time salary is not less than 5,000 a month.

Every year, enterprises and institutions will organize basketball games and sports meetings, and he is a frequent visitor to participate.

It is precisely because of Chen Mingliang that the meat factory has won the first place in the basketball game almost every year;

In the sports meeting held, 100 meters, 200 meters, 400 meters, 800 meters, and 1,500 meters are also Chen Mingming's strengths.

Usually, the only thing that can beat Chen Mingliang is the overlapping schedule of the organizing committee.

Even those who retired or changed jobs from the professional team couldn't do him.

Even, among the golfers, some provincial team coaches said regretfully that if I were ten years younger, I would definitely bring Chen Mingliang to the provincial team, and it would be a pity not to go to professional sports.

Chen Mingliang himself doesn't feel a pity, participating in an amateur basketball game, at least he can get three or five thousand, or more than one or two hundred thousand, and he is not satisfied.

For example, playing basketball as a foreign aid substitute for other units earns a lot of money.

Last time, I played basketball instead of the City Investment Group, and three thousand per game was all counted in cash.

After participating in a series of events, the income is less than 30,000 yuan.

These big dogs are not bad for money!.

The only thing he wants now is to marry a daughter-in-law as soon as possible, whether he is ugly or handsome, he can use it.

Chen Mingliang is not highly educated, he has not graduated from junior high school, his thinking is not advanced, and he is not an activist.

He didn't want to have these things, he felt that what he lacked the most was how to marry a daughter-in-law as soon as possible to continue the incense of the old Chen family.

No, this is 37 years old and almost 40, and he is still single.

It's really sad.

Chen Mingliang doesn't look handsome, but he is also tall and burly.

If you look at the facial features carefully, they are black spots, and the face is fierce, giving people a sense of oppression, but in fact, the person is very good and has a good temper.

Over the years, some people have introduced him to people one after another.

The closest one is almost about to enter the palace of marriage, but because his family is really poor and has no house, the woman's family does not agree, and finally it is gone.

Now, after more than ten years of thrifty efforts to save money, I finally bought a house in the provincial capital!

Viewing, buying, receiving. Now, the renovation is over, and it is finally possible to put the marriage of a daughter-in-law on the agenda.

I was still thinking about asking Sister Zhang, who is in charge of personnel in the company, to introduce a good family affair tomorrow, the Xiao Li she said last time is good, and the long one is strange and rare, small and exquisite, interesting .......

However, now, my mother wants to give her new house to my younger brother first!

However, just now, I even agreed!

What's going on?! Distressing ......!

Chen Mingming's family is two brothers, and he also has a younger brother named Chen Mingming, who is 9 years younger than him.

Speaking of which, the brothers are also pitiful.

When my younger brother was just one year old, his father Chen Changshou passed away, and he did not live as long as his name expected.

Only her mother, Zhang Chunhua, was left with her two sons to make a living.

It's not easy, my mother hasn't remarried.

Uncle Chen Changhai is half a streamer, causing trouble all day long, his eyes are high, and his grandparents' family is also very poor.

Only her mother Zhang Chunhua is strong, and she doesn't blink her eyes when she kills pigs; Zhang Chunhua is also spicy, and has never admitted defeat when she quarrels with outsiders; Zhang Chunhua is still gentle, looking at her youngest son, the corners of her eyes are full of love; Zhang Chunhua is feudal again, she likes this little son the most, and she is particularly eccentric.

Special, special eccentricity.

I have to think about my brother about everything in the family, and I depend on my brother in everything, and I have never considered his feelings as an older brother.

It is true that the eldest brother is like a father, and the elder brother should take care of the younger brother.

But if you only pay and you don't get anything, you still feel uncomfortable, unbalanced, and unfair.

Life without a father is naturally poor, even with the help of grandparents, let alone not.

Chen Mingliang dropped out of school in the second year of junior high school.

Because that year, my younger brother also started studying.

The family was poor, and my mother said that she couldn't afford two.

Zhang Chunhua said to Chen Mingliang, if your grades are not good, just go to school, make money to support your younger brother, and let your younger brother be admitted to university, so that he can glorify his ancestors.

You see that my younger brother has just studied and scored two 100 points, which is the hope of the Chen family in the future.

Chen Mingliang agreed.

Chen Mingliang still has the skill to make money, that is, killing pigs.

The skills of the old Chen family to kill pigs are passed down from generation to generation.

Chen Mingming's father, Chen Changshou, once proudly boasted when he was alive: When he was young, he had two big knives in his waist to break into the world, eat meat every day, drink every meal, and walk the rivers and lakes, so unhappy.

Killing pigs is indeed a good livelihood for survival.

Because grandpa can kill pigs and castrate pigs, he has never been hungry in 59 years.

Later, Chen Mingliang followed his father to learn this ancestral skill.

Chen Mingliang knew that what Lao Chen said was right, and killing pigs really changed his fate.

It is because of the ability to kill pigs, killing well, first went to the township slaughterhouse to be a professional pig killer, and then the township pig killing competition won the first place in the county, and finally because of the good pig killing, he was recruited by JN Meat Factory, and became an employee of a glorious and great state-owned institution.

The traditional pig killer is to kill the pig at the door, and the pigs in one village or three or five villages are usually not enough to kill, or to go through the streets and alleys to kill stray pigs, which is the wandering pig killer.

I really only need to bring two knives with me when I go out.

One is a pig-killing knife.

The knife is slightly curved, shiny and shiny, one foot long, three fingers wide, the white knife enters, the red knife comes out, killing the pig and removing the bones, and it is unfavorable.

There is also a small knife, the knife is small and obscene, and the little pig is very stupid and naïve.

The knife was only one and a half fingers wide and six fingers long.

It also has a curvature, and a strip of red cloth will be tied to the handle, and an iron bell will be attached to the red cloth.

It looks a bit like a barber's razor.

At this point, you have to ask, what is this knife used for?

Hey, hey, hey, this is used to castrate pigs as eunuchs!

Raising pigs, as long as they are not reserved for breeding pigs, male pigs and female pigs are to remove or destroy the X organ.

Let them stop thinking and concentrate on eating and growing meat, and then be killed.

In ancient times, walking the rivers and lakes, walking the streets and alleys, holding a sharp weapon in one hand and a bell in the other, shouting while walking.

Of course there has to be a sound, otherwise who knows what you're doing.

The old society is still described as a fortune teller, but what he did was to cut off his children and grandchildren.

Forehead... Whoever has a piglet that has just entered the slaughter, regardless of boar or sow, the craft is in hand, castration and castration, and it is invincible.

In Dongshan, this kind of travel is also called a business trip, and a certain fee charged is called poor money.

When joking, people sometimes say, "Give me a knife, I'll take your money."

Killing pigs is generally free of charge.

Of course, it is not compulsory labor.

Previously, water injection techniques were not yet in vogue, and there were no dedicated slaughterhouses.

Many pigs are killed in the farmers' own homes, born in Si, grown up, and died in Si.

Pig killers need to bring their own tools to the door, and the reward is generally a pair of pigs with water and two catties of intestinal fat.

It's hard to count the money, but the rest of the pork will be sold to the pig killer.

Zhang Chunhua is a very skillful person, and when he marries a pig killer, he has to use the skill of a pig killer to make a living.

She can cook a variety of delicacies with simple ingredients.

The best ones to sell are enemas and enemas.

All the scraps used are to kill pigs, add lard, add starch, add seasonings, cook, slice, cool seasoning, and delicious wine!

The Zhang family relied on pigs to go into the water, pig's head meat, and make all kinds of meat snacks to sell in the bazaar, earning a little money to support their families, and their lives were quite good.

Some people say that a person's life has to go through several turns, and if it turns well, it is used to change its fate, and if it is not good, it is used to recall the vicissitudes of life.

Chen Mingming's first turning point occurred when he was 10 years old.

Because this year, my father died! This year is 1991, it is late autumn, and Chen Mingliang has just started school this year.

There are many major events that happened this year, such as the collapse of the Soviet Union and the old man of the South China Sea, which has nothing to do with Chen Mingliang.

What has something to do with Chen Mingliang is that his father died this year! .

Chen Mingliang didn't study until he was nine years old.

Don't laugh, it's not uncommon for a nine-year-old in the countryside to read a school.

Some children, eight or nine years old, still run bare-bottomed, and when they run, the front of them jingles with bells.

Chen Mingming's home has good food, plenty of oil and water, and Chen Mingliang has grown tall since he was a child. Because he had to help kill the pig, he had to work hard to pull the pig's leg and lift the meat, and Chen Mingliang exercised to be tall and strong.

By the time he graduated from primary school and went to the town to study in the first year of junior high school, Chen Mingliang was already 1.73 meters, more than 160 pounds, like a calf.

Chen Changshou's death was an accident. Everyone's death is an accident.

Chen Changshou received a big boar from the commune, not a breeding pig, but it was also very large, three or four hundred catties.

Killing pigs is the livelihood of your own family, and it is impossible to find another helper, so it is not cost-effective.

The general scene is that Chen Mingliang takes the pig's blood in a basin, Zhang Chunhua pulls the pig's leg, and Chen Changshou holds the pig's head under the knife.

This pig was so big that it bled for a long time and his hands were sore.

When it came back to the light, it was still broken free.

The tied feet increased the output even more, and a pair of hind feet curled up and kicked straight into Chen Changshou's chest.

Lao Chen vomited a mouthful of blood on the spot, and his ribs should not be broken, but he suffered internal injuries.

I didn't go to the hospital to see it, and I recuperated at home, but after more than half a month, the person suddenly died.

The pig killer is killed by the pig, this is reincarnation.

The family's life is finally in trouble.

Chen Mingliang went to school while trying to find various ways to subsidize his family.

Go to the river to fish, cook sweet potatoes at home to feed the pigs, go to the fields to cut grass and feed the sheep,......

If you rush to do all kinds of work, and never care about your physical strength and time, your academic performance will naturally not be very good.

In the third year, Chen Mingliang was eleven years old and in the third grade.

This year, Chen Mingliang was finally able to kill pigs with his mother Zhang Chunhua.

This was the first pig after Chen Changshou's death.

This time, without the help of his grandparents, Chen Mingliang was the master of his own knife.

Out of control.

There is a successor to the pig killer.

Time flies.

In the second year of junior high school, Chen Mingliang dropped out of school in the ninety-eighth year after the Chinese New Year.

Chen Mingliang became a professional pig killer.

There are two reasons for this.

One is that my younger brother is seven years old and is studying. Zhang Chunhua didn't want Chen Mingliang to waste money anymore, and felt that it was enough to be literate, and the task of studying in college should be handed over to his younger brother.

The other is the establishment of special slaughterhouses in the townships.

Now that the water-injected meat is overflowing, it is time to start inspection and quarantine. Pig killing began to be professionalized and formalized, and it would be a pity to miss such an opportunity to be co-opted.

Chen Mingliang was sixteen years old this year, but he looked like he was twenty-six.

The years are urging people to grow old, and the sixteen-year-old Chen Mingliang is already 1.86 meters tall, the rough and vicissitudes of skin have increased the scale of age, and the arms of the perennial pig killing are like old trees with roots.

But Chen Mingliang is really good at killing pigs.

One person can easily subdue a restless pig, and a pig returns to the west with a knife in his hand.

A pig-killing knife, the knife flower can dance out of the shadow.

The younger brother Chen Mingming has lived another life, and he has also lived as Zhang Chunhua wants.

Although he has not had a father since he can remember, his quality of life has not been bad.

Children in the countryside enjoy the configuration in the city, and he lacks nothing but a father.

Starting from reading, he must have what others have, and he can also have what others don't have.

Although they are brothers, they look different.

Chen Mingming is white, smart and clever, has studied well since he was a child, and his brain is also very flexible.

Zhang Chunhua poured all her love into this second child.

I pick it up after school and send it to school.

There will never be a shortage of food, clothing, and use.

The school food is not good for studying, Zhang Chunhua will make pig's head meat and send it over in canned bottles;

When the weather is cold, the padded jacket made by herself is not good-looking, Zhang Chunhua will spend more than 200 to go to the county department store to buy a "duck duck down jacket" for the second child to wear.

In Zhang Chunhua's eyes, the second child is the pride of the family and the hope of the Chen family.

Chen Lao Er is also excellent at studying all the way, and he was also admitted to Dongshan University, a famous brand in the province, in the college entrance examination.

After graduation, he joined a famous state-owned enterprise and a machinery factory in JN and became a proud engineer.

This is the golden phoenix flying out of the poor village!

Chen Mingming really hasn't suffered hardship.

The money earned by the elder brother in the family is arbitrarily used for his own expenses, and he never applies for the subsidy for poor students when he is in college.

Moreover, he is also an active member of various activities, and the activities of donations and materials have never been absent from major disasters and small disasters.

My girlfriend talked a few times before and after, giving gifts, sending mobile phones, and beating children, and I don't know how much it cost.

All this money was earned by Chen Mingming, and all this money was spent by Chen Mingming.

Chen Mingliang was not very happy in his heart, but because of his mother and younger brother, he could only spend it by his younger brother.

Until my brother graduated from college.

Until the younger brother also needs to buy a house and get married.

Chen Mingliang is thirty-seven years old and is not married yet.

But he has finally bought a house.

Over the years, in addition to supporting his family, Chen Mingliang has saved a lot of money.

I'm fed up with being ridiculed without a room.

At the age of thirty-five, he finally bought a house of his own.

The house is in a good location, not far from Daming Lake, off-plan, preferential special price of 9,090,139 square meters, down payment of 900,000 yuan, loan of 400,000 yuan to buy.

After receiving the house, it also cost 260,000 yuan to carry out fine decoration!.

Everything is beautiful, and life is finally about to open a new chapter.

Until Zhang Chunhua wanted to give the house to her younger brother.

This idea has been born in Zhang Chunhua since the beginning of buying a house.

Chen Mingliang bought the house by himself, and Zhang Chunhua and Chen Mingming were not happy.

Chen Tomorrow has never had a house yet, how can you have it.

The meaning of Zhang Chunhua's visit this time is also obvious.

Brother Chen should get married tomorrow, and he has been talking to him for several years.

The woman's family is also a top student who graduated from Dongshan Normal University, and everything is waiting for her to hold her grandson, and now she lacks a house.

You Chen Mingliang don't even have a partner, why don't you give the house to your younger brother for emergency use when he gets married, and then buy a new one after a few years of saving.

Or give you the self-built house at home.

Chen Mingliang did not agree.

People have a bottom line.

He also has the idea of passing on the family to support him, which is the hope that he has persevered for many years.

If you don't have a house, where can you get a wife?!

If you don't have a wife, where can you have children?!

Yesterday, Zhang Chunhua came to the door again.

talked about his own difficulties, said that Lao Chen left early, and talked about his miserable life, and then moved himself to cry again.......

However, this time it didn't work.

Chen Mingliang is not prepared to compromise.

He took out a ledger and recorded that from the time he dropped out of school to work in the slaughterhouse, until now, he has given a total of 556,732 yuan to his younger brother and family.

This is the money you earn independently, at every time and place.

That's enough money for a down payment.

You have a good plan, I have a wall ladder.

Zhang Chunhua doesn't care about these, she has her own way.

Zhang Chunhua decisively took out a bottle of Nongguole, poured it into it when she opened her mouth, and drank several sips, not giving the house to death to Chen Mingliang.

The smell of pesticides is very strong, and Chen Mingming's nose is sour.

That's not all.

Chen Mingliang agreed to his mother's request!

My mother washed her stomach and was hospitalized in the hospital, and her complexion was not bad; The younger brother and his girlfriend were in the hospital looking at the old man, and they were in a good mood.

Chen Mingliang didn't want to see them anymore and went home by himself.

On this early winter night, Chen Mingliang was not in a very happy mood, and Erguotou drank bottle after bottle of .......
