Pork Can and his fellow villagers sell pork all year round, they are outgoing people, and everyone is young, Han Chunlei quickly chatted with him.

Listening to Pork Can, he came to Shenzhen with his sister Zheng Baohong three years ago, of course, Shenzhen at that time had not yet established a city, and there was no name for Shenzhen, which was called Bao'an County at that time. The original reason why the siblings came to Shenzhen was to look for his brother-in-law, Zheng Baohong's husband Su Dahe.

His brother-in-law Su Dahe came to Bao'an four years earlier than them, that is, seven years ago, in 1972.

According to Pork Can, his brother-in-law, Su Dahe, was originally from Hubei Province, and in response to the great leader's call for young intellectuals to go to the mountains and go to the countryside to support rural construction, he was assigned to the production team of him and his sister. Later, Su Dahe got along with his sister Zheng Baohong. At that time, the combination of intellectual youth and local rural youth was a big deal, and according to him, it was the secretary of their commune who personally came to officiate at the wedding of his sister and Su Dahe. Although the living conditions were difficult and the life was very simple, it was a sensation in the ten miles and eight towns at that time.

However, not long after they got married, the turbulent catastrophe swept across their village, and his brother-in-law Su Dahe and several other educated youths from provincial towns were also beaten down and imprisoned in the cowshed. Especially his brother-in-law Su Dahe, who is also the backbone of this group of educated youths in the provincial capital, once seriously criticized the perverse behavior of the "Four ~ People's Gang" over the years when he was drunk, and was later reported to each other. Therefore, his brother-in-law Su Dahe was fought the hardest, it was simply a small fight in the commune in three days, and a big fight in the county seat in five days.

This pork Chan, who was in his early twenties at the time, was so angry that he almost didn't draw a line with his brother-in-law Su Dahe. Zheng Baohong really has nothing to say about being a wife, she never gave up in these turbulent years, and she repeatedly rushed to the stage to protect her husband at the criticism conference, no matter how the young generals persuaded her, she always had one heart with her husband and never drew a clear line.

On a dark and windy night, Su Dahe, who was physically and mentally tortured, finally made a difficult decision - to escape at night.

He no longer wanted to endure torture and torture, and he no longer wanted to burden his wife and brother-in-law.

That night, he told Zheng Baohong about this decision. As his wife, Zheng Baohong did not object, but silently packed a few clothes and a little national food stamps for her husband. Although she doesn't have much culture, she also has a hunch that her husband may not be able to bear it and do things she can't imagine if she continues to fight like this.

When Su Dahe sneaked out of the village at night, Su Dahe hugged Zheng Baohong tightly and asked her to wait for her for two years, if the catastrophe passed, he would come back to reunite with her, if he didn't hear from him after two years, then remarry and marry a poor middle peasant.

Su Dahe's escape is a big deal for Zhengjia Village, but for their county Revolutionary Committee, this is not a big deal, and there are more anti-anti elements, ~ capitalists, revisionists, and bourgeois elements who flee every year, and he is not inferior to Su Dahe alone.

After two years, Su Dahe did not come back. However, Zheng Baohong did not remarry.

After another two years of waiting, this year, the ten-year catastrophe was over. Zheng Baohong still didn't wait for Su Dahe's news. The people in the village persuaded Zheng Baohong to remarry, but Zheng Baohong made a decision to leave Zhengjia Village and find her husband.

She doesn't know what to love or not, she knows that marrying Su Dahe is his person, and she and Su Dahe have never seen their in-laws in the provincial capital since they got married. She wants to find Su Dahe, she wants to see people in life, and she wants to see corpses in death.

She recalled the itinerary that Su Dahe had mentioned to her before leaving, to go to Guangdong, to Bao'an County, and to join his cousin-in-law. He also secretly gave Zheng Baohong the address of his cousin-in-law's house, saying that he would not come to this address to contact him unless he had to.

made a decision, Zheng Baohong packed her things, exchanged some national food stamps, locked the doors and windows, and went south to find her husband. Although Zheng Baocan still hated his brother-in-law Su Dahe, he was more relieved that his sister would go south alone, so he followed his sister to Bao'an.

According to the address left by Su Dahe, the sisters and brothers found Bao'an County, found Su Dahe's cousin-in-law's house, and Hubei Village is a commune. But when I got there, I learned that Su Dahe's cousin-in-law's family had fled Hong Kong eight years ago, and Su Dahe had left Zhengjia Village in Hubei Province four years ago.

So where did Su Dahe go?

Could it be that he didn't go south at all?

Zheng Baohong denied this idea for the first time, he believed that his husband would not lie to him. She could only be like a madman, taking Zheng Baocan to inquire about Su Dahe all over the world in Bao'an County, and later met a few Hubei villagers, saying that they were also Bao'an four years ago, according to Zheng Baohong's description, it is true that she has seen such a little fellow with a Hubei accent, who speaks politely, may be Su Dahe. But they also said that they didn't see him since, and this little fellow may have fled Hong Kong with the crowd that year.

You must know that four years ago, that is, 1972, was the largest wave of fleeing from Hong Kong in the history of Bao'an County. On the coastline of hundreds of miles of Hong Kong and Bao'an, tens of thousands of people have taken risks and fled to Hong Kong by swimming across the sea without regard for their lives. The number of people who drowned, drowned, and froze to death is innumerable.

Several large-scale exodus from Hong Kong have also made a bloody paving for one of the most important decisions of reform and opening up - the establishment of special economic zones in coastal areas such as Shenzhen.

As the saying goes, everything has a cause, and all major and great decisions must be tempered and tested by blood and fire.

The words of the fellow villagers made Zheng Baohong finally hear a glimmer of hope, but they were not sure whether Su Dahe really escaped from Hong Kong, and of course they were not sure whether Su Dahe had successfully escaped from Hong Kong, whether he drowned or froze to death in the vast sea.

Zheng Baohong is not sure whether her husband has really fled to Hong Kong, maybe her husband is still in the area of Bao'an County, hiding his name in some corner of the countryside?

But there is one thing Zheng Baohong firmly believes that Su Dahe is still alive, and she wants to wait for him, just wait for him in Bao'an County.

Wait like this, another three years.

In the past three years, she took her younger brother Zheng Baocan to work short-term, did black work, and forged herself into a "Red Sister of Hubei Village" whose strength is not inferior to that of a rough man. Now this pig killing and selling meat business, is their sister and brother and several other Hubei villagers to do in partnership, at the beginning of the year Bao'an set up the city to change its name to Shenzhen, many of the things that were previously expressly prohibited, not allowed to do, now are slowly banned, although the business of killing pigs and selling meat is still reported by the state-owned meat factory, but obviously not particularly strict, and even has the meaning of acquiescence.

So since the beginning of the year, they, a small gang of Hubei villagers who kill pigs and sell meat, have made a good living. Over time, Zheng Baohong, the name of "Sister Hong", has also become louder in the area of Hubei Village, and we all know that there is a female man from Hubei who kills pigs well, so occasionally several surrounding villages want to kill pigs or something, and they will come to Hubei Village to find Zheng Baohong. With such a tenant renting in his own house, Ah Xiong and his mother are very welcome.

So sometimes, the siblings put pigs in the water to pay the rent, and they didn't care. Besides, Zheng Baohong is open-minded, every time he takes the pig into the water to pay the rent, he either gives an extra pair of pig liver or half an extra pig lung, no matter what, he can't lose Ah Xiong and his family.

......

......

Pork Chan told the story of his brother-in-law and his sister, and Han Chunlei listened to it with relish, which could be made into a movie in the future.

Regarding Su Dahe's encounter and fate, Han Chunlei had mixed feelings in his heart, which he could only occasionally see in some memoirs before he was reborn, and it felt ordinary, nothing more than the special fate of a special era. After all, literal feelings are never better than listening to them with their own ears, and in the catastrophe back then, Su Dahe was not the first or the only one who encountered such a person.

But now listening to it with my own ears, it is a different taste, from the fate of Su Dahe to his leisurely and leisurely playing games in the future life, what a great change this country has undergone, and only then can it have a happy and comfortable prosperous era of its own generation.

If you meet Su Dahe again, Han Chunlei may say, the future is prosperous, as you wish.

For Zheng Baohong, for this Sister Hong, whether it is a husband for thousands of miles or an expert in killing pigs, Han Chunlei sincerely gave a thumbs up and praised, "Ah Can, Sister Hong is really a strange woman!"

"Of course," Pork Chan said with a dry mouth, and said after drinking the herbal tea made by Ah Xiong's mother, "If you don't marry my brother-in-law, I'll tell you, my sister is also this with us!"

As he spoke, Ah Chan gave a thumbs up.

"Hehe, Pork Can, I see that your sister is not a strange woman, she is a stupid woman!"

Ah Xiong came out of the kitchen at this time, still holding a large casserole in his hands, bubbling white and fragrant.

There is a lychee tree in the courtyard, and there is a big stone pier and a few small bamboo chairs under the lychee tree.

"Wow, pork offal porridge! The pork offal porridge made by Ah Xiong's mother is the most famous in Hubei Village, and you have a good mouth for Chunlei!"

Pork Chan didn't care what Ah Xiong said, he quickly ran into the rental house, came out with an enamel bowl, and scooped up the pork offal porridge in the casserole by himself.

Pork offal porridge?

Han Chunkai took a closer look, the pig offal in the white porridge should be the pig water brought back by Pork Can, and then seeing that Ah Xiong's mother was still chopping in the kitchen for a while, it is estimated that the rest of the pig water will be marinated.

"Chunlei, you wait a while, I'll go get light soy sauce and sesame oil, I want to add these to eat pork offal, eat enough flavor!"

Ah Xiong scooped a bowl of porridge for Han Chunlei and turned back to the kitchen.

Pork Chan shouted, "Brother Xiong, don't forget to bring some chives and pepper." ”

"Hit the street, you'll eat!" Ah Xiong snorted.

"Sit, Spring Thunder!"

Pork Chan laughed, kicked a small bamboo chair in front of him to Han Chunlei, and said in a low voice, "Do you know why Brother Xiong said that my sister is stupid?"

Han Chunlei was stunned for a moment, shook his head, his eyes lit up again, and his face became a little understanding, "Could it be ......"

"Yes, yes," Pork Chan said with a smile, "Brother Xiong has always liked my sister, but my sister has to wait for my brother-in-law to come back, so ...... You know, right?"

"Haha, I see. Han Chunlei said.

At this time, Ah Xiong went and returned, as if he had heard the conversation between the two, and was a little embarrassed to reprimand, "Pork Can, you have to chirp again, you can eat dinner by yourself!"

"Don't admit it again?"

Pork Chan was not afraid of his threat, and teased, "Brother Xiong, in fact, I have always supported you." You have to think about it, if you marry my sister, won't you be embarrassed to charge me rent in the future?"

"That's right...... Count you brat eye-catching!" Ah Xiong's words indirectly affirmed Pork Can's gossip, Han Chunlei looked at Ah Xiong, and then looked up at Ah Xiong's room on the second floor, which means, Brother Xiong, you just said that you like Teresa Teng, Ah Qiang said that your wish is to marry Teresa Teng, why do you like Zheng Baohong again?

Ah Xiong was embarrassed by Han Chunlei's staring, and seemed to understand the inquiry in Chunlei's eyes, and said with an embarrassed smile: "What, Chunlei, you haven't seen Baohong, she looks very much like Teresa Teng!"

"Really?" Han Chunlei said he didn't believe it.

Pork Chan also shouted: "Like! My sister can also sing Teresa Teng's songs, she is Teresa Teng from our Hubei Village!"

Han Chunlei: "......"

"Ah Can!! shut up!"

A coquettish cry came from the courtyard gate.

"Sister, you're back!"

"Baohong, come and eat porridge, my grandma's pork porridge just cooked!"

Ah Can and Ah Xiong's words told Han Chunlei the identity of this woman, she is Sister Hong, Zheng Baohong.

Belch...... Teresa Teng in Hubei Village.

Han Chunlei looked at it carefully, this face is round and a little similar, but the height of this meter is half a head taller than Ah Xiong, this figure, don't make trouble, is the XL version of Teresa Teng? Ah Xiong, Ah Can, do you have any misunderstanding about Teresa Teng?

Regarding the trend of fleeing Hong Kong, because it involves a lot of sensitive words and content, I won't talk too much about it in the novel.

is the person "Su Dahe", who also has a prototype in reality.
