Rebirth He Yuzhu stays away from troubles

Vitality is strong, just like the cactus that grows tenaciously in the desert, which can bloom with the brilliance of life even in the harshest environment.

It is said that after Qin Huairu left Xiaodang that night, Xiaodang stopped cursing when he saw the strangers in the room, and his little triangular eyes stared at everything in the room in fear.

The next morning, the matchmaker took Xiao Dang to the countryside outside Beijing. After rushing for a while, they finally arrived at the Zhen family at around 1 p.m. The matchmaker took the 10 yuan from the Zhen family and rushed back to the old city.

The Zhen family saw Xiaodang, who came from the old city, and was fair and tender, with eyes that moved around cunningly and looked very smart. The old couple loved her very much. They felt that they had finally found a good wife for their son who had a cold and fever and went to get an injection and became stupid.

On such a festive night, the Zhen family had plenty of steamed bread and cornmeal. Zhen Xingye, the 8-year-old son of the Zhen family, happily ate a steamed bread and a bowl of cornmeal porridge; Zhen Xingdi, the 5-year-old daughter of the Zhen family, only ate half a steamed bread and a small bowl of cornmeal porridge.

The old couple of the Zhen family thought that today was the day their new daughter-in-law came home, so they prepared the amount of steamed bread for Xiaodang that was meant for their son. Xiaodang finished the steamed bread in just a few bites, and the little triangular eyes stared at the steamed bread on the table with envy, not moving.

Zhen's father thought, "This child must have not eaten for a few meals. It seems that he is not full." He said distressedly, "Xiaodang, eat as much as you want. This will be your home from now on. Eat as much as you want."

When Xiaodang heard what the stranger said, he became bolder. He grabbed one with one hand and started eating it in big mouthfuls.

Seeing how Xiao Dang was eating, Zhen's mother started to wonder, "Didn't the matchmaker say that the child's father was a worker? He's already over five years old, how come he doesn't have any eating habits?" But then she thought he was just too hungry, so she didn't say anything.

During the first three days at the Zhen family, Xiao Dang was very cautious and well-behaved because she was unfamiliar with the family and was afraid of being sent away again. As the Zhen family treated her like any other child and she understood that she was Zhen Xingye's child bride, she gradually relaxed her vigilance.

Although Zhen Xingye is a little silly, he knows that Xiaodang is his wife and will be with him in the future. He is very happy when he sees Xiaodang every day. He will find a way to get her whatever she wants and he will do whatever Xiaodang says.

A few days later, Xiao Dang knew that Zhen Xingye would herd cattle for the brigade, so he pestered him to go with him. The next day, Zhen Xingye secretly took Xiao Dang with him. There were no cattle in the city, and Xiao Dang was so happy to see the cattle that he touched them everywhere. The cattle were docile because Zhen Xingye had been herding them all the time, and with him around, the cattle were also docile.

Xiaodang looked at the cow, so docile that she was not satisfied with just touching it. She imitated Qin Huairu's slapping of her mouth and slapped the cow's mouth. The cow was eating grass, and when someone slapped its mouth, it shook its head left and right to hide. Xiaodang thought the cow was interacting with her, and laughed happily. When Zhen Xingye saw his wife laughing, he also smiled foolishly.

Xiao Dang slapped the cow's mouth with pleasure. Seeing that this man was not letting it eat grass properly, the cow turned around and ran to a place with few people. Zhen Xingye had been herding cows for more than a year and had never seen a cow go crazy. It started to yell and scream in panic.

Several villagers who lived nearby saw the cow running away, so they called people to report to the brigade. Originally, Zhen Xingye's job of herding cattle was also in the brigade. Seeing that the Zhen family had a fool, they asked him to herd cattle and give the Zhen family some work points to help the Zhen family.

After this incident, the job of herding cattle was lost. The brigade also told Zhen's father: "If the cattle are returned by a neighboring village in a few days, it will be fine. If they are lost, the Zhen family needs to compensate the brigade every year according to the value of the cattle."

As soon as Zhen's father got home, he beat Zhen Xingye. Even a fool couldn't explain himself. He just kept crying after being beaten. Zhen's father wanted to find out why the cow ran away. He couldn't just pay the money for nothing. So he walked around the village and some people who were close to him said, "Your new wife has been beating the cow for a long time. Not only the cow, but also the people are anxious."

When Zhen's father came home and talked to Zhen's mother, they thought that the city kid didn't understand, so they didn't care about it. They thought, "Give him less food every day in the future, so that he won't eat too much and cause trouble."

Fortunately, the people in that era were simple and honest, and the next day, the cow was sent back by the team from the neighboring village.

The old couple of the Zhen family controlled the amount of food they ate, so Xiaodang ate the same amount as the younger sister of the Zhen family, and she couldn't stand it. A few days later, looking at Zhen Xingye who was circling around her, her little triangular eyes sparkled.

In the countryside these days, almost every household works from sunrise to sunset, because their ancestors have lived in the same village for generations, and they know each other well. There is not much population mobility, and when people go out to work, most families just put up their gates.

Seeing that all the adults in the village had gone out to work, Xiaodang took Zhen Xingye, who had lost his job as a cattle herder, and went door to door in the village. After a round, they found a lot of things, which made Xiaodang very happy.

Xiaodang was also smart. He hid the unfinished food in the haystack. Once he started, he would continue. When the adults in the village went out to work, they would go to clean up. At first, the adults didn't pay attention, but they couldn't stand the lack of food every day. From then on, the crying of children after being beaten could be heard one after another in the village.

Some families who found that something was missing began to lock their doors when they went out to work. It gradually became increasingly difficult for Xiaodang, who was with Zhen Xingye, to steal things, which made Xiaodang, who had grown up with a big appetite, very hungry.

On this day, the adults went to work, and Xiaodang took Zhen Xingye to wander around the village. After a round, they didn't find any house with things to steal. Finally, they locked their target on the duck pen in the village. In those days, the rural folk customs were simple, and the duck pen was also very simple. You could enter by just pushing the door, and the two actually caught a duck.

The two men caught the duck, and Zhen Xingye didn't know what to do, so Xiao Dang took over the instructions.

People working in the fields saw smoke coming out of the village, and many of them ran over, fearing that a fire might break out and affect the houses in the village. When they got there, they saw a boy making a fire, a girl directing them, and a duck with its head smashed lying next to it.

People can't even get enough to eat these days, and farmers don't have food to feed ducks. Only the villagers will raise some ducks and distribute them to each household as New Year's goods at the end of the year.

Xiaodang and Zhen Xingye were tied up and taken to the brigade. Along the way, Xiaodang shouted, "Zhen Xingye did it, we need the villagers to let her go." Zhen Xingye was so scared that he cried all the way and could not express himself.

Knowing that something serious had happened, Zhen's father and mother hurried to the brigade headquarters and comforted Zhen Xingye. When Zhen Xingye saw his parents, his emotions gradually stabilized. He told them bit by bit about what he had done with Xiaodang, and the people present almost dropped their jaws when they heard it.

Everyone was immediately dissatisfied, thinking that the children were beaten so many times because of the frequent missing of things at home, and it turned out that it was these two people who did it. The villagers asked the village to hand Xiaodang and Zhen Xingye over to the commune.

The village cadres thought: A fool, a girl of about 5 years old, if handed over to the commune, they would probably just give her an education and then release her, so it would be better to compensate her.

So the village cadres made the matter more serious, which made Zhen's parents anxious and said they were willing to pay compensation. In the end, every household that had lost something went to the brigade to register. According to the statistics, the amount of compensation and grain to be paid would mean that Zhen's parents would have to work in the village for several years for nothing.

Thinking of her own son, Zhen's mother had no choice but to accept the child. However, Xiaodang did not want to keep the child, so she asked the village to pay half of the compensation, and the village would ask Xiaodang's biological parents to pay the other half.

Just like that, the next day, the brigade issued a letter of introduction, and Zhen's father, along with a village cadre and a villager, took Xiao Dang to Sijiu City...
