Getting rich in chronology
Chapter 156
Chen Yu has never met the relatives of Liang Fengxia's natal family, nor her grandparents, uncles and aunts, none of them.
Liang Fengxia didn't come out of the rock, of course she has her own parents and family, but because of some incidents they got very tense and they no longer communicate with each other.
When Yuanshen was very young, she heard Liang Fengxia complain that she resented her parents for sending her to the countryside, so she was forced to marry a useless rural man like Shen Anmin.
Later, Liang Fengxia divorced Shen Anmin and returned to the city. When she picked up Shen Yu, she was already married to Xiao Jianshe.
All these years, Xiao Jiayao was almost ten years old, Liang Fengxia never went back to her natal home, and Chen Yu even forgot about it after a long time.
Now that Liang Fengxia has lost power in the Xiao family, Xiao Jianshe beats and scolds her. The younger generation of the Xiao family doesn't respect her, and it's also because she doesn't have the support of her natal family.
She didn't have the courage to divorce Xiao Jianshe, she couldn't stand up on her own, and she had nowhere to go after leaving the Xiao family. Why didn't the Xiao family treat her like a persimmon and bully her casually.
Just listening to Liang Fengxia's complaints, it seems that her natal family is sorry for her, which is why the relationship has become so rigid.
When she was in the country, she could receive packages from her parents from time to time, which also verified part of what she said. Her parents really owed her.
But a person like Liang Fengxia only wants to make others suffer, and she will definitely keep it in her heart when others make her suffer, and she will make up for it sooner or later, unless she is like Chen Yu, who can't be provoked and can't be beaten, and it will be bad luck if she touches herself .
However, the fact that Chen Yu got the first prize in the college entrance examination and was admitted to Beijing University was too exciting for her.
Liang Fengxia tossed and turned, her intestines were almost ruined, and she had to find a way to restore it no matter what.
After so many things, she has learned a little bit smarter, knowing that she can't fight hard with Chen Yu, the key is that she doesn't dare to fight hard, for fear that Chen Yu will call the Shen family to beat her again.
But her relationship with Chen Yu is so bad now, even if she begged him to speak nicely in front of him, Chen Yu might not talk to her.
Liang Fengxia thought about it, and thought of a roundabout way. She took a leave of absence, and went back to her mother's home she hadn't seen for more than ten years.
Liang Fengxia's natal family is in Wenzhou City next door. Wenzhou is the closest city to Xingcheng. The reason for saying this is because Xingcheng has a strange shape, with a concave part on the edge, which just happens to wrap most of Wenzhou City inside.
Therefore, the two cities are relatively closely connected, but compared to the provincial capital Xingcheng, Wenzhou's development level is far behind.
Liang Fengxia's original family was also a worker's family. Liang's father used to be a worker at a timber factory in Wenzhou City, and Liang's mother was a worker at a Wenzhou cotton textile factory. They are a dual-career family, and their family background is not bad.
The Liang family has two sons and two daughters. Liang Fengxia has an older brother and an older sister, and a younger brother at the bottom. She is the third child.
In such a family with many children, the rankings are not as high as the bottom, and many times they will be ignored by their parents.
But this is not the case in the Liang family. Liang Fengxia is seven years younger than her elder sister Liang Hongxia, and five years younger than her elder brother Liang Ping. His thoughts were on his newborn daughter.
Moreover, Liang Fengxia was fair and beautiful since she was a child. Everyone praised her when she saw her, and she heard a lot. Parents are inevitably proud, and they value this daughter more.
Even if Liang's mother gave birth to her youngest son, Liang An, she did not neglect her daughter much, and both the daughter and son loved her dearly.
But Liang An was born prematurely, and Liang's mother had a difficult labor when she gave birth to him. Liang An was born weak and worried that he would not be able to stand upright.
If there are any good things at home, I try my best to give Liang An to replenish his health. After a day or two, the difference will come out.
Liang Hongxia and Liang Ping were older and more sensible. Knowing that their parents were worried that their little brother would not survive, they held back even if they were greedy.
But Liang Fengxia and Liang An are only one year apart. Since she was young, she only saw her younger brother eat good food. It would be good for her to taste the taste. The dissatisfaction and complaints in her heart gradually accumulated, and her relationship with her younger brother was very bad. , I can't get along.
If it was just like this, just hating the younger brother and blaming the parents for being biased, it wouldn't be like this, almost severing ties with her natal family.
Liang Fengxia didn't take the initiative to go back, and her parents, brothers and sisters didn't contact her either.
The passenger car wobbled, and finally arrived in Wenzhou City, full of the stinky sweat of the summer car.
Liang Fengxia jumped out of the car, supported the big tree beside the road and exhaled, then slowly straightened up, and wiped the sweat from her forehead painfully.
The scene that came into my eyes was both strange and familiar. Liang Fengxia stared blankly for a while with a dazed look on her face. After regaining consciousness, she gradually recovered her composure.
She walked slowly for a while, and quickly found the bus stop, got on the bus to buy a ticket, the car wobbled, and took her to the courtyard of the cotton textile factory.
The house of the Liang family was divided early. The old family courtyard had only three floors. It was in the shape of a Chinese character "口" with a missing horizontal line. Countless people.
After getting off the bus, the more familiar scenery awakened the memory deep in her mind. Liang Fengxia didn't know what to think of. She stood at the intersection for a while, her face changing back and forth, and finally she gritted her teeth and strode forward.
After taking two steps, I stopped again, thought for a while, followed my memory to find the nearest supply and marketing cooperative, bought two packs of snacks and candies, and carried things, which looked better than empty hands anyway.
Go back the same way, look at it as you walk, compare it with what you remember, the place where she grew up, has changed a lot, and there are many things that haven't changed.
Near the family courtyard, there were many more children playing in the open space during the summer vacation. Liang Fengxia hadn't come back for more than ten years, and these children didn't know her. Overhead, continue to giggle and play.
There were old people who were chatting together, and she looked familiar, but after a while, I just couldn't remember where I saw her.
After all, Liang Fengxia was only seventeen or eighteen years old when she left here to go to the countryside. She came back ten years ago and didn't stay for long. The current image is a bit different from when she was a girl. It's normal for the old neighbors not to remember.
Open your mouth and ask if you can’t remember. At this time, everyone doesn’t feel embarrassed to ask random questions to strangers.
The old man squinted his eyes, looked at this familiar but strange woman, and asked curiously: "Girl, where are you calling from? Who are you looking for?"
Liang Fengxia twitched the corners of her mouth, a little impatient to gossip with the old people, but she was timid because of her closeness to her hometown. She felt that she owed nothing to anyone, but she still had a guilty conscience in her heart, and she froze downstairs and dared not go up.
When the old man asked, she hesitated for a moment, but she still said, "Look... find Liang Ping's house..."
"Liang Ping?" The old man narrowed his eyes, and Pu Fan pointed behind her: "Isn't that what you want him for?"
Liang Fengxia turned her head, and saw a middle-aged man carrying two baskets of broken wood and sawdust, sweating profusely towards this side.
The man doesn't cut his head short or shave his head like other people of his age. His hair is very long, especially in the front. A long strand is left obliquely to cover the right eye and half of his face.
In this weather, girls are unwilling to wear their hair, because it is too hot, the hair on the man's forehead is wet with sweat, and the vest on his body is also soaked in a layer of sweat, which is tightly attached to his body.
Liang Fengxia stared blankly, this is her elder brother, who used to run around with her on his back when she was a child, bought her candy, and helped her beat boys who made her cry.
Twenty years ago, when she was forced to go to the countryside, she resented him so much that she hated him so much that she never wanted him to live better, but now seeing Liang Ping, who was just 20, already had white hair on his head, she felt an indescribable feeling in her heart. Taste.
"Ah Ping, this girl said she was looking for you." Liang Fengxia stood still and did not move. The neighbor's grandmother couldn't see her anymore and shouted at the top of her voice.
Liang Ping stopped, followed the voice and looked over. When he saw Liang Fengxia, he didn't react at first, and then his eyes gradually widened: "Little sister?"
Liang Fengxia twitched her lips in embarrassment: "Brother..."
Liang Ping looked at his younger sister who had changed dramatically, with complex eyes. After a while, he sighed and picked up the basket again.
"Come on, go home first."
He walked ahead on his own, Liang Fengxia's heart was in a mess, she couldn't figure out what to do, she hesitated for a while, but followed.
The Liang family's house is on the top floor of the third floor. When they first divided the houses, they thought that the upper floors were better. If you live in a small building, you have to live in the upper floors, otherwise it will be different from a bungalow.
I didn't know the hardship until I lived in it. The Liang family's house was on the corner, and the location was not good. The sun couldn't come in in winter, and the sun was against the sun in summer. The standard is cool in winter and hot in summer.
Moreover, the water and electricity supply in the old house is not well done, and the water and electricity are often cut off. When the water is cut off, you have to fetch water from the well in the street and carry it up to the third floor, which makes people stink to death.
After Liang Fengxia married into the Xiao family, she always felt that the conditions of the Xiao family were good. One reason was that the Xingcheng Garment Factory was richer than the Wenzhou Cotton Textile Factory, and the family courtyard was better built.
Not only is the water and electricity guaranteed, but the house type is also better. Liang Fengxia and Xiao Jianjian shared a room and lived very comfortably. Thinking of the original house, whether it belonged to her natal family or the Shen family in the countryside, they could only dislike it.
The Liang family's house was even more dilapidated than what she had seen ten years ago. The corridors were piled with messy debris, and there were clotheslines hanging from their heads, leaving only a narrow strip for people to walk on.
Liang Ping picked up the basket, walked to the door of his house, and skillfully dumped the sawdust in the basket into the rotten basket at the door.
A young girl of seventeen or eighteen years old was squatting in the corner. She was sweating profusely while burning the coal stove. When she heard the noise, she raised her head and called out "Dad", then scooped up some water and sprinkled it on the fallen logs in Liang Ping. On the slag.
This series of actions made Liang Fengxia feel dazed for a while. She seemed to see that when she was a child, in the summer, her father picked up wood slag, and she and her brothers, sisters and brothers would sprinkle some water on it if they were outside.
There was no way around it. Liang's father worked in a wood factory, so he could bring back some waste wood slag that was not needed in the factory and light the stove. It was not as durable as briquettes, but at least it could save some money on fuel.
But wood chips are flammable, especially in summer, so sprinkle some water after you get them back. Although there will inevitably be more smoke when you use them, it is always safer.
Liang Ping put down the basket, and asked casually, "Where are the rest of the family?"
"Grandpa went out to look for work, grandma went to the vegetable market, mom hasn't come back yet, elder brother went out with classmates, said he would not come back for lunch, younger brother ran out to play." Liang Pan reported the family's whereabouts over and over again. .
Liang Ping nodded: "Go and find your grandma."
Liang Pan stole a few glances at the strange woman behind her father, and asked in a low voice, "What are you talking about with my grandma?"
Liang Ping paused: "Just say that your second aunt is back."
Liang Pan responded and ran downstairs, running, but stopped.
Second aunt?Her second aunt is back?
She rolled her eyes, and instead of going to the vegetable market to find her milk first as her father said, she ran to her mother's unit.
"Come in." Liang Ping's attitude was quite peaceful, which eased Liang Fengxia's uneasy mood, but his calm attitude made Liang Fengxia a little unhappy.
She hasn't come back for so many years, no matter she is angry or happy, she has to show something, her brother's attitude is too perfunctory.
Liang's house is a little smaller than Xiao's house, but the population is about the same. As a result, it is even more cramped than Xiao's house.
Liang Fengxia went in with her things, but couldn't find a place to put her things for a while, and wandered around, feeling resentful again.
However, Liang Ping has changed a lot these years, so he brought her into the back of the house, poured a bowl of cold water for her, and ignored it, went to fetch water to wash his face, rinsed his sweaty hair, and dried it a little , and dialed back to block the right eye.
Liang Fengxia watched his movements with mixed emotions in her heart. She had thought countless times that it would be good if her elder brother's eyes were not injured.
When the policy forced educated youths to go to the countryside, Liang's parents tried their best to keep their children. The eldest daughter, Liang Hongxia, already had someone to talk to and was talking about marriage. As long as she got married, she didn't have to go to the countryside.
But apart from Liang Hongxia, they had three children, and even the youngest, Liang An, was already sixteen or seventeen years old.
When the eldest son, Liang Ping, was 12 years old, he went out to play during the Chinese New Year, and one of his eyes was blown up by a firecracker thrown by some child. Marriage became a serious problem. It was hard to say a wife in the city, and it would be useless if he went to the countryside. .
The second daughter, Liang Fengxia, was born with a beautiful face. For a girl of this age, how can she be assured that she will go to the countryside to farm alone, and her parents will not be ruthless.
Not to mention the youngest son, Liang An, who has been weak since he was a child. The husband and wife have worked hard to raise the child to such a great age that they don't dare to tire him out. It's impossible to know at such a distance.
The palms of the hands and the backs of the hands are full of meat, but the old couple only have two jobs in total, and the three children have to give up one, and whoever they choose is cheating.
During that time, Liang Fengxia was terrified every day and couldn't help thinking wildly.
She didn't want to go to the countryside, she was from the city, why should she go to the countryside to be a mud leg, but she also felt that her parents were partial, if someone had to leave, it would definitely be her.
So while she was flattering and begging her parents to let her stay, she resented her elder brother and younger brother who competed with her for opportunities, especially her younger brother Liang An. She had always had resentment against him, and this time it was even more resentful.
In the end, Liang Ping, as the eldest brother, took the initiative to tell his parents that he would go to the countryside and let his younger siblings stay at home.
Liang's father and Liang's mother cried bitterly. They were planning to sign up for Liang Ping, but things turned around again.
Liang's mother has a worker, and the family also has many children, five children, one more than Liang's family.
The worker's family had a daughter who didn't want to go to the countryside. Knowing about their family's situation, she told her mother that she was willing to marry Liang Ping, but she had to ask Liang's mother to give her the job in the cotton textile factory.
Liang's mother was shaken again. This might be the only chance for the eldest son to get married normally, without delaying to become an old bachelor when he was old, and without thinking about a second marriage or a defective daughter-in-law.
She knew that the daughter of that family was capable, quick-tempered, and not bad-looking. If she was given the job, she would marry into the Liang family, but the meat would rot in the pot, and she married the boss a wife, which was not a loss.
Go back and tell Liang's father and Liang Pingyi about this matter. After all, he is the eldest son. After all, Liang's father still hopes that his son can get married and start a family early. It is rare to have such an opportunity, so he immediately agreed.
Liang Ping also hesitated. He said that he was no longer able to start a family, and he gave up the opportunity to stay in the city to his younger brothers and sisters, but that meant that no girl would like him. If he could really marry a good wife, he would not want to go to the countryside either.
Liang's mother found a chance to let Liang Ping and the girl meet. After returning, Liang Ping immediately changed her words and never mentioned that she was going to the countryside.
Liang Fengxia was still immersed in the joy of not having to go to the countryside. The Liang family had already made a marriage arrangement for Liang Ping, and the job of Liang's mother was given to the girl.
Liang Fengxia was dumbfounded, she cried and made noises, and almost ruined the wedding banquet.
Because of this, the parents who were a little guilty towards her felt a lot of displeasure in their hearts, and the choice between the two children was more in favor of the younger son.
There were people making trouble for a wedding banquet, so her sister-in-law Han Lamei had a grudge against Liang Fengxia, and she was very displeased with this sister-in-law.
After that, the choice was between Liang Fengxia and Liang An. Their parents couldn't make a decision. Han Lamei gave them an idea, saying that she would not have to go to the countryside if she married Liang Ping. Work.
It would be great if Father Liang's job could be given to Liang An, the best of both worlds.
Liang's father and Liang's mother, including Liang Ping, felt that what she said was reasonable, but in fact Liang Fengxia was only 17 years old at that time and was still studying. Girls in the city did not get married so early. It was appropriate for Han Lamei to marry Liang Ping. She was 22 years old. It's about the same age as Liang Ping.
After a while, ask Liang Fengxia to find a suitable person to marry. Girls hate to marry, and it's not nice to say it.
The partners that can be found in a hurry are more or less insufficient, such as Liang Ping, who is blind in one eye and has a scar on his face. In general, even if he can get a job, he will not be able to marry a daughter-in-law like Han Lamei .
Liang Fengxia is proud and arrogant, relying on her good looks, she only wants to find someone who is good in everything, so she is not willing to let it go.
At that time she was still too young, but now, Liang Fengxia felt that the men who were willing to marry her were better than Shen Anmin and Xiao Jianshe, and two of the elders in the family were junior cadres.
But it's useless to regret it now. At that time, she just felt bad and had a bad relationship with her sister-in-law, and she thought she was cheating her.
But the parents had a choice, and felt that it was worthwhile for her to trade marriage in exchange for staying in the city. The conditions of those gay men were not bad, just like what the eldest daughter-in-law said, the best of both worlds, why not.
With this mentality, it was almost certain that Liang's father's job was for Liang An.
Liang Fengxia was so angry that she had a big fight with Liang An, until she finally moved her hand and slapped the weak Liang An unconscious.
Now there is no choice, only Liang An's physique, went to the countryside to farm, I don't know if he will come back.
Liang's father resolutely gave the job to Liang An, Liang Fengxia had nothing to lose, she had to find a man to marry or go to the countryside.
She was stunned by her parents' eccentricity, and she refused to follow the path they arranged. Full of resentment, she signed up by herself and became an educated youth sent to the countryside.
Originally, I thought about making my parents sad, regretting and heartbroken. They were sorry for her. All the hardships she suffered were because of them. The whole family owed her!
However, within a week of going to Shangkanzi Village, Liang Fengxia regretted it, but it was too late. She signed up to come back, but no one in her family had the ability.
At first I was determined not to write letters to my family, but later I became less stubborn, and kept asking for money, food stamps, and things to send home.
Liang Fengxia opened her mouth with confidence. She felt that she was the only one of the four children in the family to go to the countryside. She was let down, her parents were eccentric, and her brother was sorry for her and owed her, so it was right to send her things and money.
However, at that time, Liang's father and Liang's mother's jobs were all given to the juniors, and the newcomers who had just entered the factory had low wages.
Moreover, Liang's mother still paid her daughter-in-law to work. After Han Lamei got her salary, at most she handed over a little living expenses to the family, and most of them stayed.
Liang's father and Liang's mother's income was cut by more than half, and they had to take care of the family, so they had limited things to send to Liang Fengxia.
Liang Fengxia felt that her parents were eccentric and stingy. I'm sorry that she was reluctant to give money to compensate. The Liang family felt that she asked for money too often, and the family conditions were difficult to support. , the relationship became more rigid.
This is also the reason why Liang Fengxia married Shen Anmin in a broken jar. The family didn't care about her, and she couldn't do anything if she couldn't eat enough, so she had to find someone to take care of her.
Liang Fengxia hadn't thought about these past events for a long time, because for her, they were all bad memories.
But standing in her own house, seeing her elder brother whom she had not seen for many years, these things had been rolling in her mind, after many years, looking back at the past, Liang Fengxia felt that she was too stupid.
Whether you stay in the city to marry, or you go to the countryside later, you should not be hard-pressed with your parents.
Her parents are actually soft-spoken, especially when it comes to children, whoever acts coquettishly or shows weakness will love her more. If she is sweeter than the elder sister and can talk, the parents will love her more. If the younger brother is weaker than her, the parents will love the younger brother more.
After so many stumbles, she finally got a little memory. Thinking of her purpose of coming back this time, Liang Fengxia tried her best to calm down.
Chen Yu doesn't want to get close to her at all now, and he doesn't even talk to her, and she just gets close to her.
But her parents have no conflict with Chen Yu!The old man and the old lady are getting old, they need to see their grandchildren, can Chen Yu drive them out?
This is the experience she has learned from Chen Yu after thinking and thinking for the past few days. If Chen Yu can move Shen's family, she can also come back to find her parents.
Even if the Shen family comes, her father is Chen Yu's grandfather, her mother is Chen Yu's grandmother, and her mother has never done anything wrong to Chen Yu. All the bad things are done by her. In Shen Yu's face, he scolded her.
Anyway, she has no face in front of Shen Yu, and all the face that should be lost is lost.
Chen Yu was so kind to the old couple of the Shen family, the old man and the old lady of the Shen family were not as good-tempered as her parents, so she coaxed Chen Yu a lot.
The last time I came to the city, I heard that Chen Yu took them to eat and buy, and even bought half-time movie tickets for them to watch a movie. The whole family is not enough to take advantage.It's just Shen Yu, a silly boy who is loved by no one, and he will be anxious if people treat him better.
Liang Fengxia regretted it when she thought about it, but Chen Yu's temperament was an opportunity, if the old couple of Shen's family could coax him, her parents would certainly be able to.
Liang Fengxia didn't come out of the rock, of course she has her own parents and family, but because of some incidents they got very tense and they no longer communicate with each other.
When Yuanshen was very young, she heard Liang Fengxia complain that she resented her parents for sending her to the countryside, so she was forced to marry a useless rural man like Shen Anmin.
Later, Liang Fengxia divorced Shen Anmin and returned to the city. When she picked up Shen Yu, she was already married to Xiao Jianshe.
All these years, Xiao Jiayao was almost ten years old, Liang Fengxia never went back to her natal home, and Chen Yu even forgot about it after a long time.
Now that Liang Fengxia has lost power in the Xiao family, Xiao Jianshe beats and scolds her. The younger generation of the Xiao family doesn't respect her, and it's also because she doesn't have the support of her natal family.
She didn't have the courage to divorce Xiao Jianshe, she couldn't stand up on her own, and she had nowhere to go after leaving the Xiao family. Why didn't the Xiao family treat her like a persimmon and bully her casually.
Just listening to Liang Fengxia's complaints, it seems that her natal family is sorry for her, which is why the relationship has become so rigid.
When she was in the country, she could receive packages from her parents from time to time, which also verified part of what she said. Her parents really owed her.
But a person like Liang Fengxia only wants to make others suffer, and she will definitely keep it in her heart when others make her suffer, and she will make up for it sooner or later, unless she is like Chen Yu, who can't be provoked and can't be beaten, and it will be bad luck if she touches herself .
However, the fact that Chen Yu got the first prize in the college entrance examination and was admitted to Beijing University was too exciting for her.
Liang Fengxia tossed and turned, her intestines were almost ruined, and she had to find a way to restore it no matter what.
After so many things, she has learned a little bit smarter, knowing that she can't fight hard with Chen Yu, the key is that she doesn't dare to fight hard, for fear that Chen Yu will call the Shen family to beat her again.
But her relationship with Chen Yu is so bad now, even if she begged him to speak nicely in front of him, Chen Yu might not talk to her.
Liang Fengxia thought about it, and thought of a roundabout way. She took a leave of absence, and went back to her mother's home she hadn't seen for more than ten years.
Liang Fengxia's natal family is in Wenzhou City next door. Wenzhou is the closest city to Xingcheng. The reason for saying this is because Xingcheng has a strange shape, with a concave part on the edge, which just happens to wrap most of Wenzhou City inside.
Therefore, the two cities are relatively closely connected, but compared to the provincial capital Xingcheng, Wenzhou's development level is far behind.
Liang Fengxia's original family was also a worker's family. Liang's father used to be a worker at a timber factory in Wenzhou City, and Liang's mother was a worker at a Wenzhou cotton textile factory. They are a dual-career family, and their family background is not bad.

The passenger car wobbled, and finally arrived in Wenzhou City, full of the stinky sweat of the summer car.

When the old man asked, she hesitated for a moment, but she still said, "Look... find Liang Ping's house..."
"Liang Ping?" The old man narrowed his eyes, and Pu Fan pointed behind her: "Isn't that what you want him for?"
Liang Fengxia turned her head, and saw a middle-aged man carrying two baskets of broken wood and sawdust, sweating profusely towards this side.
The man doesn't cut his head short or shave his head like other people of his age. His hair is very long, especially in the front. A long strand is left obliquely to cover the right eye and half of his face.
In this weather, girls are unwilling to wear their hair, because it is too hot, the hair on the man's forehead is wet with sweat, and the vest on his body is also soaked in a layer of sweat, which is tightly attached to his body.
Liang Fengxia stared blankly, this is her elder brother, who used to run around with her on his back when she was a child, bought her candy, and helped her beat boys who made her cry.
Twenty years ago, when she was forced to go to the countryside, she resented him so much that she hated him so much that she never wanted him to live better, but now seeing Liang Ping, who was just 20, already had white hair on his head, she felt an indescribable feeling in her heart. Taste.
"Ah Ping, this girl said she was looking for you." Liang Fengxia stood still and did not move. The neighbor's grandmother couldn't see her anymore and shouted at the top of her voice.
Liang Ping stopped, followed the voice and looked over. When he saw Liang Fengxia, he didn't react at first, and then his eyes gradually widened: "Little sister?"
Liang Fengxia twitched her lips in embarrassment: "Brother..."
Liang Ping looked at his younger sister who had changed dramatically, with complex eyes. After a while, he sighed and picked up the basket again.
"Come on, go home first."
He walked ahead on his own, Liang Fengxia's heart was in a mess, she couldn't figure out what to do, she hesitated for a while, but followed.
The Liang family's house is on the top floor of the third floor. When they first divided the houses, they thought that the upper floors were better. If you live in a small building, you have to live in the upper floors, otherwise it will be different from a bungalow.
I didn't know the hardship until I lived in it. The Liang family's house was on the corner, and the location was not good. The sun couldn't come in in winter, and the sun was against the sun in summer. The standard is cool in winter and hot in summer.
Moreover, the water and electricity supply in the old house is not well done, and the water and electricity are often cut off. When the water is cut off, you have to fetch water from the well in the street and carry it up to the third floor, which makes people stink to death.
After Liang Fengxia married into the Xiao family, she always felt that the conditions of the Xiao family were good. One reason was that the Xingcheng Garment Factory was richer than the Wenzhou Cotton Textile Factory, and the family courtyard was better built.
Not only is the water and electricity guaranteed, but the house type is also better. Liang Fengxia and Xiao Jianjian shared a room and lived very comfortably. Thinking of the original house, whether it belonged to her natal family or the Shen family in the countryside, they could only dislike it.
The Liang family's house was even more dilapidated than what she had seen ten years ago. The corridors were piled with messy debris, and there were clotheslines hanging from their heads, leaving only a narrow strip for people to walk on.
Liang Ping picked up the basket, walked to the door of his house, and skillfully dumped the sawdust in the basket into the rotten basket at the door.
A young girl of seventeen or eighteen years old was squatting in the corner. She was sweating profusely while burning the coal stove. When she heard the noise, she raised her head and called out "Dad", then scooped up some water and sprinkled it on the fallen logs in Liang Ping. On the slag.
This series of actions made Liang Fengxia feel dazed for a while. She seemed to see that when she was a child, in the summer, her father picked up wood slag, and she and her brothers, sisters and brothers would sprinkle some water on it if they were outside.
There was no way around it. Liang's father worked in a wood factory, so he could bring back some waste wood slag that was not needed in the factory and light the stove. It was not as durable as briquettes, but at least it could save some money on fuel.
But wood chips are flammable, especially in summer, so sprinkle some water after you get them back. Although there will inevitably be more smoke when you use them, it is always safer.
Liang Ping put down the basket, and asked casually, "Where are the rest of the family?"
"Grandpa went out to look for work, grandma went to the vegetable market, mom hasn't come back yet, elder brother went out with classmates, said he would not come back for lunch, younger brother ran out to play." Liang Pan reported the family's whereabouts over and over again. .
Liang Ping nodded: "Go and find your grandma."
Liang Pan stole a few glances at the strange woman behind her father, and asked in a low voice, "What are you talking about with my grandma?"
Liang Ping paused: "Just say that your second aunt is back."
Liang Pan responded and ran downstairs, running, but stopped.
Second aunt?Her second aunt is back?
She rolled her eyes, and instead of going to the vegetable market to find her milk first as her father said, she ran to her mother's unit.
"Come in." Liang Ping's attitude was quite peaceful, which eased Liang Fengxia's uneasy mood, but his calm attitude made Liang Fengxia a little unhappy.
She hasn't come back for so many years, no matter she is angry or happy, she has to show something, her brother's attitude is too perfunctory.
Liang's house is a little smaller than Xiao's house, but the population is about the same. As a result, it is even more cramped than Xiao's house.
Liang Fengxia went in with her things, but couldn't find a place to put her things for a while, and wandered around, feeling resentful again.
However, Liang Ping has changed a lot these years, so he brought her into the back of the house, poured a bowl of cold water for her, and ignored it, went to fetch water to wash his face, rinsed his sweaty hair, and dried it a little , and dialed back to block the right eye.
Liang Fengxia watched his movements with mixed emotions in her heart. She had thought countless times that it would be good if her elder brother's eyes were not injured.
When the policy forced educated youths to go to the countryside, Liang's parents tried their best to keep their children. The eldest daughter, Liang Hongxia, already had someone to talk to and was talking about marriage. As long as she got married, she didn't have to go to the countryside.
But apart from Liang Hongxia, they had three children, and even the youngest, Liang An, was already sixteen or seventeen years old.
When the eldest son, Liang Ping, was 12 years old, he went out to play during the Chinese New Year, and one of his eyes was blown up by a firecracker thrown by some child. Marriage became a serious problem. It was hard to say a wife in the city, and it would be useless if he went to the countryside. .
The second daughter, Liang Fengxia, was born with a beautiful face. For a girl of this age, how can she be assured that she will go to the countryside to farm alone, and her parents will not be ruthless.
Not to mention the youngest son, Liang An, who has been weak since he was a child. The husband and wife have worked hard to raise the child to such a great age that they don't dare to tire him out. It's impossible to know at such a distance.
The palms of the hands and the backs of the hands are full of meat, but the old couple only have two jobs in total, and the three children have to give up one, and whoever they choose is cheating.
During that time, Liang Fengxia was terrified every day and couldn't help thinking wildly.
She didn't want to go to the countryside, she was from the city, why should she go to the countryside to be a mud leg, but she also felt that her parents were partial, if someone had to leave, it would definitely be her.
So while she was flattering and begging her parents to let her stay, she resented her elder brother and younger brother who competed with her for opportunities, especially her younger brother Liang An. She had always had resentment against him, and this time it was even more resentful.
In the end, Liang Ping, as the eldest brother, took the initiative to tell his parents that he would go to the countryside and let his younger siblings stay at home.
Liang's father and Liang's mother cried bitterly. They were planning to sign up for Liang Ping, but things turned around again.
Liang's mother has a worker, and the family also has many children, five children, one more than Liang's family.
The worker's family had a daughter who didn't want to go to the countryside. Knowing about their family's situation, she told her mother that she was willing to marry Liang Ping, but she had to ask Liang's mother to give her the job in the cotton textile factory.
Liang's mother was shaken again. This might be the only chance for the eldest son to get married normally, without delaying to become an old bachelor when he was old, and without thinking about a second marriage or a defective daughter-in-law.
She knew that the daughter of that family was capable, quick-tempered, and not bad-looking. If she was given the job, she would marry into the Liang family, but the meat would rot in the pot, and she married the boss a wife, which was not a loss.
Go back and tell Liang's father and Liang Pingyi about this matter. After all, he is the eldest son. After all, Liang's father still hopes that his son can get married and start a family early. It is rare to have such an opportunity, so he immediately agreed.
Liang Ping also hesitated. He said that he was no longer able to start a family, and he gave up the opportunity to stay in the city to his younger brothers and sisters, but that meant that no girl would like him. If he could really marry a good wife, he would not want to go to the countryside either.
Liang's mother found a chance to let Liang Ping and the girl meet. After returning, Liang Ping immediately changed her words and never mentioned that she was going to the countryside.
Liang Fengxia was still immersed in the joy of not having to go to the countryside. The Liang family had already made a marriage arrangement for Liang Ping, and the job of Liang's mother was given to the girl.
Liang Fengxia was dumbfounded, she cried and made noises, and almost ruined the wedding banquet.
Because of this, the parents who were a little guilty towards her felt a lot of displeasure in their hearts, and the choice between the two children was more in favor of the younger son.
There were people making trouble for a wedding banquet, so her sister-in-law Han Lamei had a grudge against Liang Fengxia, and she was very displeased with this sister-in-law.
After that, the choice was between Liang Fengxia and Liang An. Their parents couldn't make a decision. Han Lamei gave them an idea, saying that she would not have to go to the countryside if she married Liang Ping. Work.
It would be great if Father Liang's job could be given to Liang An, the best of both worlds.
Liang's father and Liang's mother, including Liang Ping, felt that what she said was reasonable, but in fact Liang Fengxia was only 17 years old at that time and was still studying. Girls in the city did not get married so early. It was appropriate for Han Lamei to marry Liang Ping. She was 22 years old. It's about the same age as Liang Ping.
After a while, ask Liang Fengxia to find a suitable person to marry. Girls hate to marry, and it's not nice to say it.
The partners that can be found in a hurry are more or less insufficient, such as Liang Ping, who is blind in one eye and has a scar on his face. In general, even if he can get a job, he will not be able to marry a daughter-in-law like Han Lamei .
Liang Fengxia is proud and arrogant, relying on her good looks, she only wants to find someone who is good in everything, so she is not willing to let it go.
At that time she was still too young, but now, Liang Fengxia felt that the men who were willing to marry her were better than Shen Anmin and Xiao Jianshe, and two of the elders in the family were junior cadres.
But it's useless to regret it now. At that time, she just felt bad and had a bad relationship with her sister-in-law, and she thought she was cheating her.
But the parents had a choice, and felt that it was worthwhile for her to trade marriage in exchange for staying in the city. The conditions of those gay men were not bad, just like what the eldest daughter-in-law said, the best of both worlds, why not.
With this mentality, it was almost certain that Liang's father's job was for Liang An.
Liang Fengxia was so angry that she had a big fight with Liang An, until she finally moved her hand and slapped the weak Liang An unconscious.
Now there is no choice, only Liang An's physique, went to the countryside to farm, I don't know if he will come back.
Liang's father resolutely gave the job to Liang An, Liang Fengxia had nothing to lose, she had to find a man to marry or go to the countryside.
She was stunned by her parents' eccentricity, and she refused to follow the path they arranged. Full of resentment, she signed up by herself and became an educated youth sent to the countryside.
Originally, I thought about making my parents sad, regretting and heartbroken. They were sorry for her. All the hardships she suffered were because of them. The whole family owed her!
However, within a week of going to Shangkanzi Village, Liang Fengxia regretted it, but it was too late. She signed up to come back, but no one in her family had the ability.
At first I was determined not to write letters to my family, but later I became less stubborn, and kept asking for money, food stamps, and things to send home.
Liang Fengxia opened her mouth with confidence. She felt that she was the only one of the four children in the family to go to the countryside. She was let down, her parents were eccentric, and her brother was sorry for her and owed her, so it was right to send her things and money.
However, at that time, Liang's father and Liang's mother's jobs were all given to the juniors, and the newcomers who had just entered the factory had low wages.
Moreover, Liang's mother still paid her daughter-in-law to work. After Han Lamei got her salary, at most she handed over a little living expenses to the family, and most of them stayed.
Liang's father and Liang's mother's income was cut by more than half, and they had to take care of the family, so they had limited things to send to Liang Fengxia.
Liang Fengxia felt that her parents were eccentric and stingy. I'm sorry that she was reluctant to give money to compensate. The Liang family felt that she asked for money too often, and the family conditions were difficult to support. , the relationship became more rigid.
This is also the reason why Liang Fengxia married Shen Anmin in a broken jar. The family didn't care about her, and she couldn't do anything if she couldn't eat enough, so she had to find someone to take care of her.
Liang Fengxia hadn't thought about these past events for a long time, because for her, they were all bad memories.
But standing in her own house, seeing her elder brother whom she had not seen for many years, these things had been rolling in her mind, after many years, looking back at the past, Liang Fengxia felt that she was too stupid.
Whether you stay in the city to marry, or you go to the countryside later, you should not be hard-pressed with your parents.
Her parents are actually soft-spoken, especially when it comes to children, whoever acts coquettishly or shows weakness will love her more. If she is sweeter than the elder sister and can talk, the parents will love her more. If the younger brother is weaker than her, the parents will love the younger brother more.
After so many stumbles, she finally got a little memory. Thinking of her purpose of coming back this time, Liang Fengxia tried her best to calm down.
Chen Yu doesn't want to get close to her at all now, and he doesn't even talk to her, and she just gets close to her.
But her parents have no conflict with Chen Yu!The old man and the old lady are getting old, they need to see their grandchildren, can Chen Yu drive them out?
This is the experience she has learned from Chen Yu after thinking and thinking for the past few days. If Chen Yu can move Shen's family, she can also come back to find her parents.
Even if the Shen family comes, her father is Chen Yu's grandfather, her mother is Chen Yu's grandmother, and her mother has never done anything wrong to Chen Yu. All the bad things are done by her. In Shen Yu's face, he scolded her.
Anyway, she has no face in front of Shen Yu, and all the face that should be lost is lost.
Chen Yu was so kind to the old couple of the Shen family, the old man and the old lady of the Shen family were not as good-tempered as her parents, so she coaxed Chen Yu a lot.
The last time I came to the city, I heard that Chen Yu took them to eat and buy, and even bought half-time movie tickets for them to watch a movie. The whole family is not enough to take advantage.It's just Shen Yu, a silly boy who is loved by no one, and he will be anxious if people treat him better.
Liang Fengxia regretted it when she thought about it, but Chen Yu's temperament was an opportunity, if the old couple of Shen's family could coax him, her parents would certainly be able to.
