There is Room for Rebirth in the 1950’s

The entire yard of Zhang Guofu's house is full of fruits and vegetables, and Huang Cuilan secretly planted sweet potatoes in the corner closest to the woodshed and toilet.

On the right side of the firewood house, five hens and one big rooster were raised in a plot of land. Today, two or three eggs can be earned every day, which is due to the wheat seedlings. The little girl was very hardworking, and the chicken coop was cleaned extremely clean.

Huang Cuilan looked at the chicken food on the plate, and found that there was not much left after being eaten by the chickens, she shook her head with a smile. She didn't need to go to the chicken coop to know that the eggs had been taken away. If her daughter didn't see the eggs, she would never leave the house, worrying that one day her cousin would come and take them away.

Lush and green vegetables occupy the entire yard, leaving only one trail. All this is due to the three brothers Xizi. Usually she has to go to work by herself, watering, fertilizing and catching insects is inseparable from the children.

While tidying up the garden, Huang Cuilan wondered if she should take the time to go back and have a look at the backyard of the village. Immediately thinking that I really don't have to worry about running out of time in the future, I sighed.

It was almost noon, and she was about to put down what she was doing when there was a knock on the door. She was startled, who else would come over here? Not allowing her to think too much, the voices of her mother and sister-in-law sounded outside.

Huang Cuilan frowned, sighed, walked to the courtyard door and opened it, let them in and then closed it again, looking back at them suspiciously.

Mother Huang took her hand with a smile, Why do you still do such rough work? Just go and call your nephews. Have you eaten yet?

Mother said I haven't seen you for a long time, so I brought her to visit. Where are the children at home? Xiaolan, I'm here today because I have a very happy event to tell you.

Huang Cuilan smiled at her, and dragged her mother into the living room.

Mother, look at the little girl's yard is really tidy. The vegetables are much fresher than those sold outside.

Huang Cuilan paused, but didn't answer. In the past, she would have said that she would bring some back later. But she really can't make the decision, it's all planted by the four children, she can't say it.

After Huang's mother took her seat, she looked around and asked in a low voice, I heard that your mother-in-law and the others are going back to the village this morning?

Huang Cuilan shook her head, I don't know, I just got off work this morning.

Has the son-in-law come back?

Huang Cuilan shook her head again.

Xiaolan, it's not my sister-in-law talking about you, why don't you go to the provincial capital to stay for a few days, and always go to work, how much money can you have?

Huang Cuilan smiled and said, Now I can't even go to work. I just notified you this morning, and I will go through the formalities soon.

Mother Huang said with a sharp smile, What are you afraid of? Let your mother-in-law go to the factory to talk about it, because she is afraid that she will not be in class. My mother will say that you are stupid. Going to a textile factory is exhausting. This time let your mother-in-law Help transfer to the son-in-law's unit, the two of you are together, and no one can poach your corner.

The eldest daughter-in-law of the Huang family immediately said: Mother, you are very quick-witted. You are not as rigid as Xizi's grandma. I heard an interesting story a while ago. Do you think his grandma is funny? The neighborhood committee on this street asked him to Grandma's help means to let her go to work. But do you know what she said? She said she couldn't read, so don't embarrass her. Tell me there are people like this. She doesn't even know they are flattering her, and she refuses .”

Huang Cuilan didn't like her talking about her mother-in-law like that, and reminded: My sister-in-law and sister-in-law all live nearby, so be careful not to be overheard by them.

So what if you hear it? Said so. But the eldest daughter-in-law of the Huang family dared not bring up this topic again. If those lunatics in the old Zhang family heard this, they would definitely kill themselves. Who doesn't know that the five brothers and sisters of the old Zhang family listen to their mother the most, and there is really no one to protect their shortcomings.

Huang Cuilan knew that she was being stubborn, so she ignored it, and said softly to her mother, This time both my sister-in-law and I have resigned, and we didn't discuss it at all. My mother-in-law is not that kind of person, and she can't ask others.

Really lose your job? Then what do you do? Your mother-in-law can't ignore it. You go to her to grind.

Huang Cuilan didn't listen to her. After a while, it's time for her to go back to her mother's house.

Mother Huang listened to her bowing her head and not speaking, and sighed. What a disappointment! I can't even catch a man, and now I'm fine, and I don't even have a job. She didn't want to speak again when she thought about it.

The eldest daughter-in-law of the Huang family saw that the mother and daughter were just sitting silently, she moved the stool by herself, moved closer to Huang Cuilan, and said with a smile: Xiao Lan, sister-in-law has a happy event to tell you about.

Huang Cuilan glanced at her, It must be a great joy to see you so happy. It makes me happy to say it.

Haha... The eldest daughter-in-law of the Huang family laughed twice, I told my mother that she also thinks this marriage is good. We are here today for this matter.

Huang Cuilan looked at her mother with interest, and said with a smile: Nephew or niece? Then I would like to congratulate sister-in-law. Whose family is she?

The smile on the face of the Huang family's sister-in-law froze, and she immediately said: It's not my children, they are not as lucky as Xizi. I have a colleague, her husband is a cadre in the county, no, she has a little granddaughter who is now twelve years old. Years old, I want to pull the thread, the couple of them fell in love with our Xizi...

Upon hearing this, Huang Cuilan immediately interrupted by shaking her hand, Sister-in-law, stop talking.

Why? People said that his daughter and Xizi are still in the same school, and she will be allowed to go to college in the future. She is very sincere, and she said that she doesn't want any betrothal gifts, but only fancy children. I promise her that No problem, what else is there to choose from such a nice family?

Huang Cuilan frowned, Sister-in-law, what guarantee do you use. Xizi's surname is Zhang. Don't say he is still young, even if he is old, the old Zhang's family rules are also for the children to choose by themselves, and no parents have ever decided in private.

Huang's mother was so angry that she poked her daughter's forehead with her finger, You are stupid. If my daughter-in-law doesn't find someone who agrees with you, what status will you have in the family in the future? Do you think the old lady will not be tired after coming here on a hot day? Isn't she To die for you girl.

That's right, little sister. What mother said makes sense. You made an appointment for Xizi, but the old Zhang family can still force you to divorce? That family also has a family background and is worthy of the old Zhang family.

Huang Cuilan closed her eyes, and shook her hands weakly, Stop talking. If I dare to make my own claims, believe it or not, I'll have to leave right away? And no one can make decisions about Xizi. Even his father has a few good friends. When it comes to marriage, he dare not agree. Not to mention the county cadres, even the provincial cadres are useless. My father-in-law said, let Xizi and the others find it by themselves, and don't ask the child's family background, as long as the family style is good and the child is virtuous, They can do as they please.

The eldest daughter-in-law of the Huang family rolled her eyes when she heard this, and immediately said, So, how is Xiaoxiu from my natal family? That child is good-looking and hardworking.
