Before the liberation of Uncle Chang's family, there were dozens of acres of thin land, which were classified as landlords during land reform. But the people in the village said that Uncle Chang and his wife had a good life and were blessed.
The reason is that Aunt Chang gave birth to five sons and two daughters, and as the saying goes, "five men, two women, and seven relatives" is a good life! The people of the village are all envious.
Uncle Chang was humble and was originally a teacher in the village, but he was sent home to farm due to composition problems. During the Cultural Revolution, he and his wife often went out to volunteer work, doing dirty work and tiring work, not to mention, but also constantly being criticized and fighting. Uncle Chang, who was originally humble, became more cautious in his speech and deeds, for fear of provoking right and wrong.
By 1975, the eldest son was a 26-year-old man, and there was no matchmaker to come to the door to propose to him. Uncle Chang and his wife are anxious, what is the use of light and urgency, their own ingredients have many children, whose girlfriend is willing to jump into this fire pit?
Uncle Chang and his wife had to choose to use the way the eldest daughter transferred relatives to the eldest son and married back a daughter-in-law. They knew it was disgraceful to do so, but there were four bachelors below, and they couldn't watch all five of their sons beat up!
The eldest turned to marry, and the second became a big problem. The second brother looks like a tiger with a bear's waist, a chinese character-shaped square face, thick eyebrows and big eyes. The appearance of the person is not bad, that is, the head is stuffy like a stuffy gourd. I don't know that the old two monkeys can't find the next home.
The second elder looked at his father and mother and sighed in sorrow all day long, and he was determined to go out to earn money by himself. So he bought a machine to fry popcorn and walked the streets and shouted about fried popcorn.
This old man is honest and wooden, and he has been walking around the surrounding villages for ten miles and eight villages all year round, and his business is doing well. Especially in the winter, the ground is clear, the people in the village are idle, and the business of frying popcorn is very hot.
But with the smoky image of the second elder, Mu Ne is not good at words, and it is not easy to find a daughter-in-law!
Seeing that the second eldest was more than thirty years old, he sold the popcorn machine and went to Xuzhou to pull feet (use flatbed trucks to help people transport goods). The second helper to transport goods does not pick fat and pick thin, give money to dry. Over time, the second brother became a sincere person in the pulling team, an old good man.
You don't have to say, there are really people who see the second brother loyal and honest, and Zhang Luo is proposing to the second brother. The woman is Pizhou, her parents are working as a road cleaner in Xuzhou City, the girl looks quite good, her heart is wide and fat, and her silver plate has a big face, which is a bit silly. The house her parents rented was very close to the transport station where the second brother was.
The woman's parents have seen the second eldest and feel that although he is a few years older than his daughter, he is honest and responsible. Just ask the introducer what the second elder did before? The introducer said humorously: This old man was originally the "commander of the independent artillery regiment", and due to the long-term firing of the cannon, the ears were a little back, so it looked a bit wooden.
The woman's parents are not educated, and when they hear that the second elder has also been the "leader of the artillery independent regiment", how to say that he is also a personal figure. His own stupid girlfriend with such a man was not bent, and he agreed to this marriage in one mouth.
In this way, the second brother married a stupid daughter-in-law with a joke about the introducer.
After the second eldest married the stupid daughter-in-law, he took her in the city to continue to pull her feet to earn money to live, and the silly daughter-in-law could not do any work, the food was not done well, and the clothes could not be sewn. The second eldest raised her, only hoping to have a son and a half daughter, and in the future, when the two people are old, it is good to have a dependence.
Ordinary days, just like this is not salty and not light, when the second eldest is idle, he takes his silly daughter-in-law around the neighborhood to buy her some delicious food. But the stupid daughter-in-law has not been pregnant with a child, which makes the second brother very disappointed.
Disappointed to disappointed, the second brother still loves and takes care of the silly daughter-in-law. Ten years have passed, no one in Xuzhou has long used flatbed trucks to transport goods, and the business of pulling feet has gradually been cancelled. The second elder had to take his stupid daughter-in-law back to his hometown in the countryside.
Mu Ne's second son has been pulling feet in the city for many years and knows nothing about farm work. The couple had to eat and dress, and the second had to return to their old business - walking the countryside to fry popcorn.
The second eldest's comeback this time is different from the past: in the past, he was dragging a flatbed bicycle to walk the countryside, and now he is riding a tricycle to walk the township; in the past, he walked the township alone, and now he is walking the countryside with a stupid daughter-in-law.
When we got to the village, a trumpet sounded "Explode popcorn!" Here we go with fried popcorn! The second man and the silly daughter-in-law had already chosen the location, carried the machine from the car to fry popcorn, built a stove, and prepared to start work.
There were men in the village who knew the second eldest, and when they saw the silly daughter-in-law standing next to the second elder, they joked: "Oh drink! When did the commander of the Artillery Independent Regiment marry such a beautiful daughter-in-law? Didn't let everyone have a glass of wine! ”
The second elder looked at the men and women who were watching, smirked and replied: "Jokes! I just picked up a daughter-in-law and made it up to live. After a long time, everyone was not surprised, and no one joked with the stupid daughter-in-law of the second eldest.
Don't look at the second stupid daughter-in-law who can't do farm work, can't sew and mend, but is a good daughter-in-law who is filial piety. Aunt Chang suffered from cerebral thrombosis and was bedridden for many years, and she was incontinent. Dumping urine and scrubbing are all silly daughter-in-law attendants. On the day of Aunt Chang's burial, the stupid daughter-in-law cried to death and came back to life.
Today, the second elder has passed the age of ancient rarity, and the stupid daughter-in-law is also over the age of flower armor, and the village cadres have advised them to go to the nursing home to spend their old age. The second brother refused, he said that he could still support himself, take his stupid daughter-in-law around every day and feel comfortable, and did not cause trouble to the government. One day really can't move, and then go to the nursing home for the elderly.
You listen to "Fried Popcorn!" Here comes the popcorn"! The roar came from not far away; with a "bang", the scent of popcorn wafted in!
