When my grandmother died, it was already the beginning of summer, and the flies had already begun to fly everywhere, and I took wormwood to help her face drive away the flies, and I was not afraid at all.

Shortly after my grandmother died, a big hole suddenly collapsed in the room where she lived, and our whole family was startled and didn't know why.

My mother hurriedly invited the Taoist priest to come to the house to see if there was some evil at work, and the Taoist priest took the compass and looked at it for a long time and asked, "Did your family dig a well next to this house before?" ”

"Yes! However, the well could no longer be fetched, so it was abandoned. My mom said.

"That's right, the dirt under this house has been drained, and after a long time, the ground will collapse."

"What should I do then?" My dad asked.

"Just pull a few cartloads of dirt and fill in this big hole."

So my dad pulled a few carts of dirt and filled in the big hole, and then my mom was worried that the house would not be strong, so she dug the house down.

Later, my three older sisters all went out to work, and the family's financial situation was much better, so my mother built three more West House and three South House.

In this way, our family has nine tiled houses, three hall houses, three west houses, three south houses, plus a courtyard wall, which happens to be a small courtyard.

Later, my dad built a small bathroom between the South House and the West House, and in the summer, I liked to fill the bath with tap water and soak in the bath alone, which was very cool.

My dad also built a garden next to the courtyard wall, which was planted with several colors of moon flowers, and the flowering season was very beautiful every year.

My mom even asked my dad to build a chicken pen by the east wall of the south house, and people are sometimes like this, once they get busy, they can't stop.

So my dad renovated the pigsty again, so that our house, the chicken pen and the pigsty were all new.

Perhaps at that time, it was the most glorious moment for our family in Zhuangzi.

Big tile house, TV, washing machine, refrigerator, big color TV, what used to be in other people's homes, now we have them in our house.

The reason why it is said to be a highlight moment is that not everyone can afford these things, and there are many people who can't afford these things.

My uncle's family is one of those who can't afford to buy these possessions.

To explain here, in some places the father's brother is called uncle, or uncle, in some places the father's brother is called uncle, and the uncle's lover is called aunt.

In our village, we call our father's brothers Ye, and in order of size, we call them Uncle, Second Master, and Third Master, and so on.

We call the lord's lover Niang, and in order they are called Auntie, Niang, Niang, Sanniang, and so on.

In those years, the reason why our family had a highlight moment was mainly because my three older sisters had already gone out to work to make money.

While relieving the pressure on the family for their father, they also brought a certain amount of wealth to the family, although they didn't earn much money working outside, but it was much better than farming at home.

At that time, China was officially moving from a semi-agricultural society to a fully industrialized society.

That time was the hardest time for all migrant workers, but also the happiest time for them, and it was also the time when our country developed the fastest.

In order to save labor costs, Western industrial countries have transferred low-end industries to the Asian tigers.

Later, in order to save labor costs, the four Asian tiger countries transferred low-end industries to China.

So we, the common people, ran from the farmland to the factory in order to make more money.

My three elder sisters also went to Jiangnan to work with their fellow villagers in that wave of work.

Although part-time work is hard and tiring, it is much better than farming in the field.

When farming at home, you often have to face the loess with your back to the sky, and the wind and sun will blow and expose your skin to the sun after a long time.

Working in a factory, working in the house all day long, the wind can't blow, the rain can't hit, and the skin will become white and tender after a long time.

At that time, as long as the country girl went out to work and came back within a year, she would change from a country girl to a white and tender beauty.

Planting the land, sowing seeds and fertilizer, and often fetching water and weeding, working hard for a year, can only have two incomes, and that income can only barely feed a family.

It's different with a part-time job, you get paid every month, and you don't need to invest a penny, except for being a little tired, you don't need to worry about anything.

When the bosses had money, they would go out to eat, drink and have fun, which promoted the entertainment industry, so the entertainment industry in Hong Kong was particularly prosperous in those years.

What TVB, TVB.

These TV stations have launched the Four Heavenly Kings, and the Four Heavenly Queens, they have made a lot of martial arts TV series and Hong Kong movies, and these things have swept the entire mainland for a while.

The bosses paid taxes when they earned money, so that the state had money, and when the country had money, it began to build bridges and pave roads, and invest heavily in infrastructure.

In this virtuous circle, our country is developing better and faster, so that the people also make money.

When people have money, they will go to entertainment and consumption.

Therefore, in those years, many young people were very fond of Hong Kong stars, and they would sing the songs of the stars and imitate the celebrities' dresses.

Young people would also send the surplus money home to their parents, who would cut down the straw hut and build a large tiled house.

After the tiled house was built.

They started buying all kinds of furniture again, they started buying TVs, they bought refrigerators, they bought washing machines......

With the gathering of people around the factory, the city was formed, and some of the owners of the processing plant transformed into real estate owners.

The real estate owners built commercial houses near the factories, and then they sold those commercial houses to their former workers.

In order to be closer to their place of work and more convenient for them to go to work, young people take out loans to buy houses in the city.

Since then, they have returned the money they earned from their current boss to their former bosses, and some have even paid it back for a lifetime.

In order to pay off the mortgage as soon as possible, they handed over their children to their parents in the countryside, while they worked day and night in the city.

In the days to come, they did not dare to get sick or ask for leave, in order to pay off the mortgage as soon as possible.

When they finally paid off all their mortgages and were about to enjoy life, they suddenly realized that most of their lives had passed.

They want to spend time with their parents, but their parents are gone!

They want to spend time with their children, but they find that the children have grown up and now the children don't need them anymore!

Looking back on the first half of my life, I found that I had worked hard day and night in the factory, and unknowingly passed away the best thing in my life.
