Then there is no more

The ancestors of the Shen family were in the jewelry business, and the ancestors with names and surnames on the genealogy can be traced back to the Ming Dynasty, but the genealogy before the Ming Dynasty was lost during the war.Such a big family is supposed to be prosperous, but in fact, there are not many members left in the Shen family.

The Shen family moved abroad during the Republic of China.One branch chose to marry the local people. When it was passed down to a certain generation, there was only one female heir, and the female heir took her husband's surname after marriage, so this branch no longer has the surname Shen.As for Mr. Shen, he chose to return to China during the Anti-Japanese War and resolutely devoted himself to the great cause of the proletariat.Mr. Shen originally had four brothers, and he was the youngest.

Mr. Shen had two elder brothers who died in the war. One of them left no offspring, and the other left a son, but that child died in the ten years of turmoil.Mr. Shen also had an elder brother who survived as a meritorious veteran general after the founding of the People's Republic of China, but died not long after the old injury relapsed.This elder brother also gave birth to a son named Shen Chengzhi.Shen Chengzhi also suffered persecution, but gained his due status after being rehabilitated.

In other words, the most senior member of the Shen family is Mr. Shen. He also has a nephew and two sons.

His nephew Shen Chengzhi is over 50 years old and now holds an important position in the local military region. Considering his ability and qualifications, he is still on the rise.If there is no accident, he will have the opportunity to enter the central government in the future.Mr. Shen took over the business from his father and passed it on to his eldest son, Shen Chengping.The second son, Shen Cheng'an, is also a businessman, in charge of subsidiaries in daily necessities, food, and clothing.

The nephew is an official, and Mr. Shen is a businessman. The two complement each other and have always had a tacit understanding.

Looking at Shen Yi's generation, his cousin Shen Chengzhi and his wife only had one daughter, Shen Yi's eldest cousin, who was more than 20 years older than Shen Yi and just got married last year.Shen Yi's uncle Shen Chengping and his wife Xie Yun have never had children.Shen Yi's biological parents only gave birth to him.

In other words, Shen Yi is temporarily the only male in his generation.

Not just for the time being, even if the future is added, Shen Yi may be the only male in his life.After all, Shen Chengping and Xie Yun didn't look like they were trying to make people, and Shen Chengan and Mao Anni didn't look like they wanted a second child, although their family could afford the fine.

If someone asks Shen Yi, is there a throne in your family that needs to be inherited?Shen Yi can answer in a low-key and modest manner, naturally there is no throne, but there is a small family business that needs someone to inherit it. "Xiaoxiao" is a kind of humble speech, which is similar to "my humble person".

September is almost over halfway.

The article "Adventures in Dreams" written by Bian Jingyu has received two rejection notices.Because of her current biological age, Bian Jingyu wrote this novel as colloquially as possible. However, such a work falls into the eyes of many editors, and the writing style is naturally not good enough.Today's editors mostly maintain the arrogance of literati, even if they have to be limited by the political environment, but not all articles can catch their eyes.

Bian Jingyu was not discouraged, and directly asked Bian Aidang to help him submit "I Love You, My Motherland" for submission.

After receiving the rejection notice, Bian Aidang was even more reconciled than Bian Jingyu. In his opinion, the nephew's writing was very good, and the editors didn't accept it because they didn't know people.He continued to wait for a reply from a children's literature publishing unit.He didn't have any hope for this publishing house before, because he felt that the stories written by Bian Jingyu could be serialized in newspapers, but it was still a little far away from publication.But now that the manuscripts are being rejected one after another by the newspapers, the Bian Aidang is holding his breath, hoping that the editor of this publishing house will have a discerning eye to recognize heroes.

The father-in-law of the Bian Ai Party, Principal Bian, has naturally read the two articles written by Bian Jingyu. If it weren’t for the fact that their county is too strict on school attendance, Principal Bian would have wanted to enroll Bian Jingyu in his school as a student. up.To what extent are the school attendance standards strict?Before the first grade starts, each village will report the number of students in each village to the school, and the school orders books based on this number, and there is not even a spare book.

Children born before September are not eligible to go to school until they are eight years old; children born after September are not eligible to go to school until they are nine years old.Students' school age must not be lower than this line.Of course, because there are many loopholes in the household registration system at this time, the age of students can be faked.But Bian Jingyu is only five years old at the moment, and he is too far away from the eight-year-old school line. No matter how fake he is, he can't make him three years old immediately.If Principal Bian really accepted Bian Jingyu as a student, someone would immediately go to the county to report him anonymously.So he dared not open the back door.

Under the same blue sky, Shen Yi was able to go to school but he didn't want to go to school. When it came to Bian Jingyu's side, he wanted to go to school but couldn't get the quota.This is because the distribution of teaching resources in the two places is different.China is such a big country, and the gap between rich and poor is so wide.

Bian Jingyu was also born at a bad time. In a few years, all the places will start hyping for gifted children. There must be many schools rushing to get him.But in this period, the crime of hooliganism has not been abolished, young men and women are still afraid to hold hands in the street, rules and regulations are more important than anything else.

However, although Principal Bian was not good at opening the back door for Bian Jingyu, he couldn't bear to delay Bian Jingyu, so he made a suggestion to the old Bian's family.

During this time, Mao Chunmei led Bian Jingyu to the town and ran very diligently.One is because she cares about the business in He Osmanthus flower shop, she paid the principal, if the business is not good, it's like cutting her flesh.The other is because she is still very concerned about the progress of Bian Jingyu's submission.Although Mao Chunmei doesn't know what to submit or not to submit, she knows that this must be a big event, and she hopes that this big event will definitely come true.

Every time she came to the town, Mao Chunmei still led Bian Jingyu to stay at Principal Bian's house for one night.

This is because He Guihua's tailor shop can't live in people at all.She has just started to pick up business, so she must have no money to rent a house in the town, so she can only live in a tailor's shop.During the day, put away the bedding and lock it in the cabinet; when it gets dark and the tailor shop closes, put the bedding in the shop.In such a dormitory environment, it is already difficult for her and Bian Aiguo to live in, and there is really no room for Bian Jingyu and Mao Chunmei to live in.

Principal Bian seized the opportunity and said to Mao Chunmei: "Mother-in-law, since Dabao's mother has come to the town to open a shop, why don't you just let Dabao live with his mother in the town. Dabao is so smart, Zhishou Village can't stay here Those who hold him, force him to stay, that is delaying him!"

Among other things, there is a library in the town. If Bian Jingyu lives in the town, she can go to the library to read during the day.

To make a digression here, the library in Baoping Town was donated by Shen Yi's own mother.After picking up the dumb grandfather, Ms. Mao never planned to set foot in this place again, after all, there was no one she cared about here.But this is her hometown after all. She also accepted the kindness of some villagers when she was a child, so she used part of her bonus to build roads for the village and a primary school and library for the town.

No matter what Mao Chunmei was thinking, Bian Jingyu was really moved by Principal Bian's proposal.

As a person with strong self-learning ability, as long as Bian Jingyu is given a library, he can thoroughly understand the whole world.Even if some knowledge is not very easy for an ancient like him, after living in the town, he will have many opportunities to ask the teachers in the school.Most of the teachers at this time are very responsible, and they have the face of Principal Bian. If Bian Jingyu comes to ask for advice, they will definitely be willing to give advice.

However, Bian Jingyu was a little worried about Liufeng, so she had to find a way to bring Liufeng to the town.

"If you're worried about your child, let Dabao live in my house, and he won't lose him by eating three meals a day!" Principal Bian assured him, patting his chest.The reason why he is so enthusiastic is because Bian Jingyu is so good, as long as he does not hurt Zhong Yong, Bian Jingyu's future will definitely be smooth.Educators always subconsciously prefer Xueba.Even if Bian Jingyu is not a child of Principal Bian's relatives, they have nothing to do with each other. As long as Principal Bian sees Bian Jingyu's excellence, he is still willing to let him live in his home and give him some help.

In other words, if "Bian Dabao" is a brat that everyone hates, if he has been completely spoiled by the elders in the family, then Principal Bian will definitely not care about him after doing his best for ordinary relatives .If you can't stop the Bian's family from committing suicide, then stay as far away from their home as possible!

After hearing Principal Bian's words, Mao Chunmei showed a troubled look on her face.

If Bian Jingyu really lived in the town, at least in a short period of time, Mao Chunmei would not be able to accompany him to live in the town, and the grandparent and grandson would only see each other once a month.Mao Chunmei is naturally reluctant!However, both she and He Guihua attached great importance to Principal Bian's words.They hadn't had much contact with scholars before, and Principal Bian was the most knowledgeable person among the people they knew. Because of their respect for "superior people" like Principal Bian, they took President Bian's words as golden rules, lest they would not If you follow his words, Bian Jingyu will have no future at all.

Everything that involves Bian Jingyu can't be a trivial matter!

Mao Chunmei gritted her teeth and said, "I remember what my brother-in-law said. However, if Dabao really lives in the town, how can he really let him live with his in-laws? After all, he is still young, and there will always be Don’t make you worry about the ignorant place. Let him live with his parents. It’s no problem for them to live with another child.” Mao Chunmei said this, it seemed that she didn’t want to find the Principal Bian’s family. Troublesome, she seems very reasonable, but in fact she is afraid that her grandson will be wronged at Principal Bian's house.Mao Chunmei had seen how Principal Bian's family doted on Bian Shanshan. If Bian Jingyu really lived in their house for a long time, wouldn't she want to serve as a foil for a little girl?She can't bear it!

Principal Bian thought about it for a second, he really didn't have any extra room in his house, if Bian Jingyu really lived in his house, they would have to separate Bian Jingyu from the living room in a small room, which was really inconvenient, so they didn't force it.However, he has already made a plan in his heart. When Bian Jingyu really lives in the town, they can invite Dabao to come to their house for dinner every three days.The food in their family is still good, and they will not lose their children.

Hey, Shanshan and Dabao are about the same age, and they are first cousins, so if Shanshan can be nurtured by Dabao's side, maybe Shanshan will suddenly become enlightened.Thinking of this, Principal Bian looked at Bian Jingyu with more loving eyes, and felt that the child was sensible no matter what he looked at.

During this period of time, Mao Chunmei was running around the town frequently, so the family naturally couldn't take care of her, and Jiang Wangnan was not idle either.

Things had to go back to early September, when Mao Chunmei took Bian Jingyu to the town for the first time after school started.Bian Laomen, Bian Aijun and Jiang Wangnan stayed at home to work.Bian Laomen went to a nearby place, while Bian Aijun and Jiang Wangnan went to a distant place.Not long after arriving in the field, Jiang Wangnan suddenly said that she was not feeling well, and Bian Aijun asked her to go home first.Although he has a bit of a dull personality, it is absolutely impossible for him to force his wife to work in the fields knowing that his wife is not feeling well.Bian Aijun worked alone in the field until the evening, when he came home, Jiang Wangnan was already preparing dinner on the stove, Bian Aijun asked how Jiang Wangnan was doing, Jiang Wangnan said he was much better, Bian Aijun did not let this matter go on heart.

However, the same thing happened many times in the following days.

Whenever Mao Chunmei took Bian Jingyu to the town, as soon as the grandparents and grandchildren left home, Jiang Wangnan said that he was not feeling well and wanted to stay at home for a rest.Bian Aijun gradually realized that Jiang Wangnan wanted to take advantage of Mao Chunmei's absence to steal a day's laziness, right?This is strange, Jiang Wangnan is a good farmer, and Bian Aijun has never seen her be lazy before.Thinking that Jiang Wangnan had really had a hard time marrying him these years, so he didn't expose her.Whenever Jiang Wangnan said that she was not feeling well, Bian Aijun would tell her to take a good rest.

This day was naturally the same. Mao Chunmei left, Jiang Wangnan said that he was dizzy and wanted to go home to rest, and Bian Aijun worked in the field alone until evening.When it was dusk, Bian Aijun returned home with the farm tools on his shoulders.As soon as he walked to the village, an old lady greeted him and said, "Aijun, is your daughter-in-law returning to her natal home today?" The family is short.

Bian Aijun froze for a moment.

A light flashed in the eyes of the old lady, like a vulture hovering in the sky for a long time finally saw a piece of carrion on the ground, she patted her thigh, and continued to chatter: "I left in the afternoon... Hey, I almost didn't recognize her as your daughter-in-law. She was covered tightly all over her body, and she deliberately chose the path to avoid crowded places. Oh, and I thought she would have to live in her mother's house for a while It's late, I didn't expect to see her sneaking back just now... Hey, after all, she didn't stay at her mother's house for a long time at all!"

The old lady is indeed a person who likes to tell stories, but there are many hidden meanings in her words.

Bian Aijun pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled, walked past the aunt without saying anything.What he said at the moment is wrong, once the old lady catches the talk, their family will become a joke in the village, so it's better to go home and ask Jiang Wangnan what he did today.Seeing Bian Aijun walking by without saying a word, the old lady couldn't hear what she wanted to hear from Bian Aijun's mouth, so she couldn't help curling her lips and spit on the ground again.Alas, it was a waste of time for her to stand at the head of the village and wait until now, but it's a pity that she won't be able to watch a good show today!

Everyone in the village knew that Mao Chunmei didn't like to see Jiang Wangnan's natal family very much, and she was usually very reluctant to let her daughter-in-law go back to her natal home.Jiang Wangnan also obeyed her control, and really seldom went to her mother's house these years.Mao Chunmei was not at home today, Jiang Wangnan quickly went back to her mother's house and came back again, obviously she was doing things without telling Mao Chunmei!The old lady told Bian Aijun about this because she wanted to watch the excitement.It's best that Jiang Wangnan really went back to her natal home secretly, and it's best that Bian Aijun goes home and beats Jiang Wangnan when he finds out about it.In this way, the old lady felt at ease.

This old woman has no enmity with the old Bian family, and neither does Jiang Wangnan, but gossiping women like them have a heart that fears the world will not be chaotic.

Suddenly, the old lady rolled her eyes.Heh, Bian Aijun is just a little bored, what's the use of her telling Bian Aijun about this, why not tell Mao Chunmei directly when Mao Chunmei comes back!Thinking of this, the old lady felt at ease again, and went home to cook with her fat buttocks twisted.

Bian Aijun doesn't like Jiang's family very much either, that family is lazy waste, as long as Bian's family treats them with a little bit of good looks, they can rely on Bian's family.Fortunately, Mao Chunmei was fierce and made the Jiang family suffer several times, so they didn't dare to take advantage of the Bian family.However, Bian Aijun was not angry about Jiang Wangnan's sneaking back to her natal home.No matter how much he doesn't like Jiang's family, they are also Jiang Wangnan's family. Maybe she is simply homesick?Anyway, Jiang Wangnan didn't have any money in his hands, and Mao Chunmei held all the money for their family's food sales. Jiang Wangnan could only save a little bit of money, and she just gave Jiang all her belongings. Home, there are not many in total.

When Bian Aijun returned home, Jiang Wangnan was cooking dinner on the stove, without mentioning that he had returned to his natal home.

Bian Aijun went to wash up in the creek first, he originally wanted to ask Jiang Wangnan during dinner.As a result, during the meal, Bian Aijun swallowed what he wanted to say because of the presence of Bian Laomen and Liufeng.Bian Aijun finally asked when he was sleeping at night. He only said that someone in the village had seen Jiang Wangnan go back to his natal family and asked if Jiang Wangnan had really gone back.In fact, he just asked casually, and Jiang Wangnan would be fine if he answered truthfully.

Jiang Wangnan hastily denied it and said, "No..."

"Heping's mother said she saw you, covered her tightly, and deliberately walked along the path. Didn't she see you?" Bian Aijun said.

Jiang Wangnan didn't expect that he had tried his best to walk along the path, but he was still seen by others, and hurriedly said: "I didn't go back to my mother's house. I don't feel well. I want to ask Grandma Fifth to take a look." The well-known midwives in their area also see some gynecological diseases.

Grandma Fifth lives in a nearby village, which is in the same direction as Jiang Wangnan's natal village.

When Jiang Wangnan said that, Bian Aijun believed it, and said, "Is it really uncomfortable? I'm really uncomfortable. Let's go to the town's health center to have a look."

"No, no, no! Grandma Wu said that I just didn't do well during confinement, so there is no big problem." Jiang Wangnan said.

Bian Aijun wondered if he had to get a bag of brown sugar for Jiang Wangnan to drink, and they all said that it was good for women to drink.

That's how it went.When Mao Chunmei came back and heard rumors outside, Jiang Wangnan only insisted that he went to Grandma Fifth's place, and that he went there only once, and who knows how unlucky he was bumped into.Because Jiang Wangnan was usually very honest, and Bian Aijun also helped her speak. Although Mao Chunmei scolded a few times, she didn't suspect that Jiang Wangnan had lied, and scolded the onlookers outside.

After that, Mao Chunmei's reputation in the village became worse and worse.Some people say that Mao Chunmei, a mother-in-law, doesn’t treat her daughter-in-law as a human being. When her daughter-in-law is not feeling well, she can only sneak out to see someone when she is not at home. Mao Chunmei is so angry that she stands at her door every day and scolds people.

Because Bian Jingyu was left in the town, Mao Chunmei resumed her previous level of swearing, and scolded the person who spread the gossip.

Bian Jingyu didn't know about the mess at home.In his opinion, as long as there is Mao Chunmei in Lao Bian's family, they will definitely be able to suffer.Although he disagrees with many of Mao Chunmei's actions, Mao Chunmei can indeed protect the Bian family from being bullied.So he didn't worry about the adults in the family at all, only worried about Liufeng's well-being.However, his third uncle treats Liufeng much better now.Bian Aijun is a confused person. In the past, Liufeng was taken care of by Sifeng. Seeing that his two daughters were living well, he stopped worrying about his daughters. Instead, he cared more about the crops in the field.When Sifeng went to school, Bian Aijun didn't realize that Liufeng suddenly had no one to take care of him. It was Bian Jingyu who reminded him that he suddenly reacted.

Mao Chunmei ignores the girls in her family. She can swear and order girls to work, but she will not really starve the girls to death, nor will she suddenly pick up a broom and beat the girls until they cry .Jiang Wangnan doesn't like girls the most, but once Bian Aijun starts to pay attention to Liufeng, as long as Liufeng is smart and always follows his father as a tail, Bian Aijun will naturally remember to take care of her, and Jiang Wangnan will have nothing to do with her.

When the conditions in the town get better, Bian Jingyu wants to bring Liufeng to the town as well.

But the conditions at the moment are undoubtedly very poor, and life is bumpy.Bian Jingyu's family eats and lives in the shop. A pot on the coal stove is the kitchen, and a toilet in the corner is the toilet.Bian Jingyu slept between the adults at night, and found it difficult to turn over.

Bian Jingyu went to the library to stay after breakfast every day. He took a steamed bun and an egg with him as lunch, and brought a bottle of water. He could stay in the library until dark.The lunch is steamed buns and eggs, it's not that He Guihua doesn't value Bian Jingyu, on the contrary, it's because He Guihua values ​​him too much!Which family can afford to eat white flour steamed buns and eggs every day, that is, He Guihua is willing to give it to her son.

Like He Guihua and Bian Aiguo himself, they dealt with them indiscriminately.

Bian Jingyu thought to himself, he had read so many books of sages in his previous life, and finally reached the realm of peace and happiness in this life, it is not easy!
