Chapter 59

In the big backyard of Lin Yaoxi’s house, it is now full of people. The aunts and daughters-in-law are surrounded by each other and put their own small benches on the ground in an orderly manner. They sit in twos and threes in a pile according to the habit. I brought some small food by myself, such as peanuts and melon seeds, and a cloth bag for garbage; some brought some leftovers, such as needlework, etc., and started to work as soon as I sat down However, there are not too many such people.

A few years ago, following the collective nursery in Datong Village, and under the organization of Shan Jingqiu, the brigade hired a few nimble girls and wives to set up a collective sewing room in Datong Village. The brigade rented sewing machines to the families below. , Subsidize the work points every month. If it is broken, the brigade will be responsible for repairing it. Women who are not good at sewing can hand over the sewing buddies to the sewing room, and give them work points based on the size. The daughter-in-law who was not good at sewing was freed from mending work at home, and also gave a few weak girls who couldn't earn a few work points the opportunity to support themselves. For example, Xinghua from Lin Yaoxi's family started to help in the sewing room at that time .

Of course, the original idea was just because Shan Jingqiu was not good at sewing, and the trouser legs of her two children were half short. It is rare to buy finished clothes these days, so I came up with the idea, but I didn’t expect to win the support of men, women, and children. Even now If everyone has a little extra money, they are also willing to go to the sewing room in the village to find a skilled worker to help them sew and mend.

So now, apart from the few sewing workers in Datong Village, most of the other women don’t do mending work anymore, except for a few women who can’t take time off or have good craftsmanship, they are used to doing it by themselves. Disaster!

Lin Jiancheng's family poked the woman next to him and asked curiously, "What do you think sister-in-law Jingqiu is going to tell us today?"

The second daughter-in-law of Li Cuihua's family next to her rolled her eyes helplessly: "The Jiancheng family, didn't sister-in-law Jingqiu say that a few days ago? Today is a sharing meeting, and I want to share my experiences and feelings..."

A sense of panic like missing a class hit Jiancheng's family, and he looked a little suspicious: "Really? You didn't lie to me, did you?" He turned his head to think, and felt as if he had heard the news and continued to sit in line to eat fruit Fruity waiting.

...

The establishment of the Datong Village Women's Federation has not been established for a long time, because during the previous campaign, the activities of the Women's Federation have long been unknowingly suspended. The teaching mutual aid class quietly landed at that time.

Yes, of course, this matter was done by Shan Jingqiu, who is now regarded as a model in the hearts of women in Datong Village.

The cause of the incident was that in the late autumn a few years ago, Shan Jingqiu, who went hunting in the mountains, "picked up" Lu Cuihua who was planning to commit suicide by the river ditch. Lu Cuihua belonged to Li Tongxing's family in the village. She gave birth to four daughters for Li Tongxing. The couple broke up with the four daughters, and Li Tongxing, who was quite honest at first, picked up those sticks when he came home drunk and attacked his wife, and even a few daughters were beaten. Impersonal! And after Lu Cuihua was pregnant with her fifth child, Li Tongxing found a fortune teller and said that she was still a daughter in her belly. Angry Li Tongxing picked up the stick to teach Lu Cuihua a lesson. With the idea of ​​seeking death, for her, this life is so hard that there is no end to it, and she is willing to die only if she dies.

Shan Jingqiu, who rescued Lu Cuihua, understood that there were many tragedies, big and small, in this village, and the peace on the surface was not bad, but domestic violence, abandonment of children... all kinds of incidents are countless, she She never does tasks for the sake of tasks. Since the last world, everything she has done has been to live a life of herself. After all, it is really not easy to have the opportunity to start over again and again in an ordinary life that used to be mediocre.

So just like that, the original "Women's Federation" in Datong Village fell to the ground. At first, it was just to let the women in the village who had suffered so much that they had no head have a voice to talk about, but gradually it became more and more prosperous. .

As soon as Shan Jingqiu walked into the room, there was a round of applause. Looking at the crowd of locals below, she still couldn't help but want to help her forehead. After all, she was still not used to seeing this bunch of women eating melon seeds in class.

But people's potential is unlimited, and she never thought that she would start teaching all the women in the village with her original status of being unmarried and childless.

She clapped her hands habitually, and when she heard the clapping just now, the small voice disappeared completely. The most nagging woman on weekdays shut her mouth and looked at Shan Jingqiu with the most sincere eyes. : "Today, we don't give lectures or reason. Let's share other people's stories. Everyone can listen to this story. After listening, let's all share our thoughts."

She gestured to Lu Cuihua, who was also below, with her eyes, and then sat down and looked at her with supportive eyes.

Lu Cuihua's heart was beating fast. She had only attended literacy classes and could only write the names of her family members. She had never thought that she would have the opportunity to teach others. Lei was so dizzy that he couldn't speak for a long time, but he felt relieved the moment he met Shan Jingqiu who was sitting below and looked at him supportively, and he was full of stability.

"Hello, everyone, I'm Lu Cuihua." The first word came out, and the rest of the words came out like flowing water. Lu Cuihua calmed down and began to say: "You should all know me too. The guy in my family is Li Tongxing. What I want to share with you today is a story about me…”

What I thought would be too shameful to say, but flowed out word by word. After all, everything that happened at that time was engraved in my heart, unforgettable.

"As for me, I have another name called Sini's mother. Why? Because I gave birth to four daughters, Da Nizi, Er Nizi, San Nizi, and Sinizi. I also changed from Da Ni to her mother. She became Si Ni's mother, and the head of my family also said that Da Ni was a precious daughter from the beginning, and then she became a loser..."

Lu Cuihua choked with sobs: "I look at other people's sons every day, and I am very envious. Do I really want a son? My four daughters are very good, help the family every day, never mess around, I never think My daughter is not good, but they all said, I must have a son. Without a son, I would lose the roots of Lao Li’s family, so I gave birth desperately. Every time I gave birth, I saw that it was a daughter, confinement I don't dare to do it and get up and work quickly, I'm worried that they will give Nier away if they get angry..."

At the beginning, I couldn't help whispering, although I have attended many women's mutual aid associations, many people are still very stubborn in their thinking. For example, the eldest daughter-in-law of Li Cuihua's family is most proud of having given birth to three sons. She puffed her chest out and whispered to the people next to her: "Isn't it normal to be scolded and looked down upon for having four daughters! I still have to have a son!"

Of course, there are many such words, but as the words are spoken, everyone becomes silent. Most people's hearts are not so strong and tenacious. Even stubborn ideas will be shaken when they see tragedy. it will be over soon...

"That day when I went home, my gangster beat me again. He drank alcohol and grabbed a stick to beat me. My Da Nier helped me block him and let me run. I ran out when I was scared away. Looking back, I saw my Da Ni, Er Ni, and San Ni helping me grab her father, and Si Ni was crying beside me. At that time, I was very scared and ran forward desperately..."

She wept bitterly: "Later, when I got to the riverside, I really didn't understand what the meaning of this day was. I couldn't go on, and I almost wanted to jump off when I saw the river..."

Shan Jingqiu stood up to take over the quarrel, and continued to say: "Everyone knows what happened later, I took Cuihua back to their house, and at that time, Ni'er had already been beaten several times by his father. , but no matter how painful it is, she is looking for her mother everywhere, and the child's father has already finished drinking on the bed and fell into a deep sleep..."

...

This matter was very noisy at the time, because Lu Cuihua was the first divorced person in Datong Village. At that time, the Li family and the Lu family almost had a fight. It was an even match for a while, but later even if Li Tongxing repented, the two ended up divorcing.

Lu Cuihua wiped her tears and calmed down: "Maybe some people will say, why am I so ignorant, just give birth to a son, but I really can't live this life. At that time, sister-in-law Jingqiu actually dragged me back and I also I don’t want to, that night Jingqiu’s sister-in-law took us home to sleep, my father came to the door, I thought he would beat me and scold me, but he just cried and said to me.”

"He said, why didn't you tell dad about your child?" Lu Cuihua's tears could not be wiped clean: "How could he bully my daughter? My daughter was not born to be ruined by him! The child's father is reasonable..."

"It was only then that I realized that I can't spoil myself and my daughter. Yes, everyone says son is good, but I also know that my girls are treasures. When I was beaten by her father, it was Nier My sons would run to protect me regardless of being beaten. Even when I left, I was beaten by her cruel father. I can’t just go back and apologize. Even if I have a son, he won’t beat me? I’m human, Nier We are human too, I am not a child-bearing animal, he has to treat me as a human being! He has to treat me as a human being..."

Lu Cuihua regained her composure, and her tears stopped: "So no matter how many people persuade me and scold me, I know that I will not survive this day. I may be poor or tired, but I can be a human being!"

As soon as the words fell, there was sparse applause from below, and it became one after a while. Everyone applauded with red eyes from the bottom of their hearts. How come it seems that the strings in the bottom of my heart have been touched, and I became excited.

Lu Cuihua's face turned red with excitement. This should be the first time that so many people applauded her since the divorce. Maybe, she did nothing wrong. She stepped off the stage step by step. After a long time, Li Dani held her mother's hand, held her tightly and sat down under the stage, listening to the applause and snuggling together, feeling great strength.

Yes, this is the legendary true hell mode.

"You say there is no such reason in the whole world! Let's come and see the daughter-in-law bullying the mother-in-law!!"

"Shan Jingqiu, my son will die only if he marries a prodigal daughter-in-law like you! You bastard! How dare you hold on to my son's house!"

...

Looking at the big scene in front of her with a blank face, she couldn't laugh out of the corners of her mouth.

After learning about the development of this world, she looked at the old woman who was so eager to roll on the ground, she felt extremely ironic.

In her life, she has only seen such superb products on 818 or complaints on the Internet. She never thought about what it would be like to face all this.

If we talk about the experience of the original body, then we can only describe it in miserable words.

But what if innocent? But you might get a negative answer.

There is a saying: mourning for misfortune and anger for not fighting is the best portrayal of the original body.

If the main story in this world is written into a book, it will probably become a title that many Shan Jingqiu is familiar with, such as "Good Days in the 1970s", "Back to the 1970s to Find Soldiers" and other titles.

You should be able to understand this when you see this. This is a typical chronological essay. The protagonist of the story, Lin Qinghun, wears the body of Lin Qing, a little girl with the same name who was born in Datong Village in the late 1960s. With her intelligence, she won the true love of Brother Bing and lived happily ever after.

And what about the original body?

Her big family is the "extreme relatives" who occupy a large part of the story, the walking background board of the story.

Datong Village is a village in Lizigou, Tongshan County, C Province. Most of the people in the village migrated from their ancestors and have been here for generations. And like many traditional villages, the three surnames living together in Datong Village are Lin, Li, and Sun.

The original body was married here from another village in Daxing outside the mountain.

In the story, the part that mentioned the original body used such a word - wonderful, it couldn't be more appropriate.

When the heroine's soul transmigrated to the girl here, as mentioned in many years' articles, she found that she had a family of excellent relatives.

The heroine Lin Qing's grandmother is named Sun Jinhua, who controls the financial power of Lin Yaoxi's family. She is a typical eccentric mother. She has raised three sons and two daughters, but she is extremely eccentric. The eldest son Lin Jianguo, the second son Lin Jianjun, and the eldest daughter Lin Taohua were born in the difficult days. After five years of poverty and hardship, they gave birth to twins, the youngest son Lin Jiandang and the youngest daughter Lin Xinghua.

She has three sons and two daughters, but she only has her youngest son and daughter in her mind, and she can't wait to use up the other children's family property to supplement her.

Why?

It's very simple, Sun Jinhua is a superstitious person through and through.

Sun Jinhua, who had a hard life, held the red letters with the birth date of Jianguo, Jianjun, and Taohua, and ran to the blind Wang, who was famous in the county at that time, with the money she had saved for a long time. Fate, after all, life is too hard, she can hardly survive, without some superstition, she can hardly face a family of children who are starved for food and a family that is so poor that it is almost headless.

Blind Wang made a categorical conclusion on Sun Jinhua. The children she gave birth to now are not filial, and they will not have great prospects in the future. Now the family is impoverished because the fate of these three children is not good, and they will have to wait for the next child to be happy.

Of course, Sun Jinhua didn't take it seriously at the beginning, but secretly speculated in her heart, after all, all her children were involved in this, so she wouldn't lose them all to live on her own.

But the strange thing is that Sun Jinhua became pregnant not long after, and this one was completely different from the first ones. It was a good pregnancy, smooth sailing, and no reaction to pregnancy at all.

Not to mention that since pregnancy, the family situation has improved all the way.

As soon as the twins were born, Lin Yaoxi's eldest brother, Yaodong, was discharged from the army smoothly and returned home. He brought back a lot of things, and left some money for the younger brothers who didn't get along well. From here on it's suddenly different.

Now Sun Jinhua believed it, and it seemed that her youngest son and daughter were prosperous.

Since then, she has determined that the two sons and one daughter in front belong to Ke's family!

Since then, everything in the family has been tightly controlled by the baby son and daughter, and the life of the other three is even worse than that of the children brought up by the stepmother in the village.

It's okay when you are young, no matter how bad it is, it is nothing more than doing more work and eating less food. After all, you are a respectable branch in the village, so how can you let such a scandal happen to your family.

But after growing up, this mountain is still as high as another mountain, and the hard days are just here!

With a little bit of strength, the two brothers started to go to the fields, and Taohua took care of the two younger ones at home.

Hard work was not enough. Most of the children in the village were at the age when they were sent to school. Sun Jinhua tried hard to keep the two boys from leaving.

Who made Sun Jinhua famously smart? If the two children go out to study, they will be wild! Not to mention how much work the family would have to do without the labor of these two and a half adults! Don't even think about it, she never does such a loss-making business!

You said Taohua, this child who is destined to marry off, Sun Jinhua will never send her to study, and want to spend the family's money? It's better to keep watching younger siblings.

So the children of this family have grown up after such a study.

When Lin Jianguo reached the age of marriage, Sun Jinhua gritted her teeth and refused to give him even a few things for the wedding. A family that only knows how to farm and has so many people, and there is no bride price, how can anyone be willing to marry?

Coincidentally, the Shan family in a village far away also encountered difficulties. Du Miao Miao, who had given birth to three daughters and one son, was looking for a wife, and she fell in love with Lin Taohua. In the same way, with the idea of ​​changing relatives, he came to negotiate with Sun Jinhua, and married his eldest daughter Shan Jingqiu to Lin Jianguo, and married Lin Taohua back home.

Only Lin Jianjun was left, and Sun Jinhua was reluctant to spend money after thinking about it, but there was nothing she could do. She couldn't exchange her precious little daughter Xinghua for a marriage, right? So after thinking about it, she really came up with a solution for her. She ran to the hills to find a matchmaker who was a matchmaker among the hills. She bought a daughter-in-law from Dage Village, the poorest village in ten miles and eight towns, for three yuan and a bucket of rice. That is the second daughter-in-law Wu Qiuyun.

Now it's all right, she consciously arranges it properly, but it doesn't make any sense to squeeze her sons and daughters-in-law.

But what kind of seedlings come out of what fields.

Sun Jinhua was able to control her son and daughter-in-law like this because her Lin Jianguo, Yuanshen, Lin Jianjun, and Wu Qiuyun were all cowardly and submissive people.

My saucy mother lost her temper and obediently followed.

So this tragic day became more and more serious day by day, and even Lin Jianguo's eldest daughter, Lin Yu, started to work for her sister-in-law and uncle!

"Mom, don't cry, let's go back to the room." Lin Xinghua has been pampered for eighteen years, and she feels that her mother Sun Jinhua, who is rolling around on the ground, is a bit ashamed, and she can't wait to go back to the room immediately. Don't want to be seen.

After all, she knew better than anyone why her eldest brother died. Now that the body was still cold, her mother started to make trouble, which made her feel gloomy.

But she didn't want to say a word too much, who made her secretly hope that her mother would succeed?

She also thought in her heart that since her elder brother was gone, her sister-in-law should pack up and go back to her own house. I don't want to rest together in a small room separated from my parents' room.

As for the pair of children left by the eldest brother, they can just find a place to squeeze together. There is no need for two and a half older children to sleep in a single room.

Now she has begun to think about how to arrange the house after she gets it.

Shan Jingqiu looked coldly at Lin Xinghua who was standing upright in front of her, she looked very graceful, but she stood upright and refused to bend down to help Sun Jinhua, Shan Jingqiu, who already knew her temperament, couldn't guess her What's on your mind.

It is from here that the story kicks off vigorously.
