Chapter 343: Turning into Stars
This may be the most unappetizing meal for everyone, no one has the heart to eat, and after cleaning up, the Su family does not have any sleep.
Everyone sat in the courtyard, looking up at the sky overhead, it was raining for the first few days, and the sky was dark at night, but today it was a long time before there were stars.
Li Xiulian looked at the stars in the sky and muttered, "You say, did he leave us and turn into a star in the sky?" ”
"It must be." Wu Guixiang nodded firmly.
Her eyes, which were swollen into walnuts, pointed to the brightest star in the sky, and said, "Look, this is the one." ”
After death, people will turn into stars in the sky and have been watching you in the sky, this sentence is actually used by many adults to coax children, but at this moment, they really hope that this sentence is true, he has really turned into a star in the sky, and will always look at them and look at this land.
Su Qingyun sat beside Wu Guixiang and gently wiped her tears, "Milk, don't be sad." ”
Wu Guixiang looked at the brightest star in the sky, and said softly: "Yunyun, your father and I are old, and older people seem to like to remember the past." ”
"In the old days, now that I think about it, I feel scared, when I was young, there were four sisters in the family, and our sisters were not much older than each other, I was the second, my mother? gave birth to four of our daughters, and I couldn't hold my head up at home. ”
"When she was pregnant with her fourth child in the end, the doctor said that her belly was like a boy, my father was so happy, the doctor said that my mother was weak, so my father went to the city and wanted to buy something with my mother to make up for his body, but he was arrested and never came back, and he didn't know which battlefield he died on in the end."
The whole family was a little stunned when they heard Wu Guixiang's story, because she had never said this before.
Wu Guixiang didn't know what was wrong with her, she didn't want to mention those difficult days before, but today, she just wanted to talk about it.
"After my father left, my grandmother thought that my mother had restrained him, and she became more and more bad, when she was pregnant with my fourth sister for more than seven months, my grandmother also asked her to wash clothes in the cold pond, which hurt her body even more, my fourth sister was born prematurely, my mother was bleeding, and I only had time to look at my fourth sister? It's gone, and before I died, I found out that my fourth sister was not a handle, and her eyes didn't close. ”
"My father and mother are gone, my grandmother has to take care of our four sisters alone, she is also old, there is no way, I can only give my fourth sister to other people's families, my eldest sister was also arranged by her to marry in a hurry, and came back in exchange for the bride price money, only I grew up with the third child."
"Just when I was about the same age, my grandmother sent me and the third child to the landlord's house to be a maid, the landlord's family has a stupid son, drooling all day long, the brain is worse than two or three-year-old children, even if people are stupid, or a pervert, he sees the third child is beautiful, and he does things to her all day long."
"The third child was afraid that he would be beaten to death by his milk if he lost this job, so he swallowed his anger and didn't say anything, not even me, until the end, the fool did it to her again, and when the two pushed Sangsang, the third child was directly killed by the fool? Pushed? In the well, it was gone, and the fool's father was afraid that the matter would be exposed, so he stuffed me with some ocean and drove me out. ”
"I went to sue the official, but the official was also a dog official, he had long been bought by the landlord, obviously it was the fool who killed the third child, but in the end it became, the third child wanted to fly on the branch as a phoenix, and wanted to climb their house, so he went to seduce the fool, and the people didn't follow, and finally she fell into the well and died, don't you say it's ridiculous?"
"I can't do anything, I can only go home, my milk has been mean all my life, but when I look at me, I cry so much that I can't breathe, I know that she is also bitter in her heart, she has lost her husband in middle age, lost her son in old age, her daughter-in-law is gone, four granddaughters, and in the end, only one of me is left, she is more bitter than anyone else."
Later, she seemed to be a different person, good to me, I know, she was afraid that even I would be lost in the end, and our ancestors and grandchildren began to depend on each other, in that chaotic world, try to live, but you think about it, you also know, an old man, a young girl, in that kind of world, what good life can be lived? It's nice not to be bullied. ”
At that time, I felt that this world was too dark, and this god was too short-sighted, and people like us were inferior to the ants on the ground. ”
"I often hear the schoolchildren in the village shouting that they want to protect their families and defend the country when they grow up, and the young people who have been studying for a few years also say every day that the country is sick and must be changed. It's okay, I'm laughing in my heart, who can change? Who can change this society? No one. ”
"Later, no one thought that the light? I still remember that there was a teacher among the first batch of people who came to liberate us, and he stood at the entrance of our village, holding a charcoal pen on a large stone slab, and told us what a new society is and what is a new life. ”
People who are scared, want to believe but dare not believe, and then I watch, the landlord was defeated, the old society has become a thing of the past, everyone stands up, no longer need to bend down and bow to anyone, my unjustly killed third sister, and finally? With innocence. ”
"Later, I finally heard his name, saw his appearance, knew that it was him, took us to stand up, and led us to live a new life, no more landlords, no one will be caught strong, and I don't have to be frightened all day long, afraid that one shell after another will fall from the sky."
"I watch, the days are getting better day by day, in my heart, there is not a day that I am not grateful, those thoughts have affected all of us, so I think you read more, reading is always useful, this society needs readers."
"We all came from the most difficult days, so people who haven't experienced his feelings can't imagine that people have birth, old age, sickness and death, but this day really came, he left, my heart is empty?."
"In my mind today, I keep thinking about the old things over and over again, as if I had gone back to that day, the day when so many people set foot on our land, the day when that gentleman told us about a new life."
