Su Wanhu old man is more than 70 years old this year, now living alone, speaking of Su Wanhu's old man's life, it can be said that he has experienced a lot, full of cold and warm in the world, Su Wanhu old man has had two feelings, the most difficult for him to let go is his first love Li Chunmei.
I met Li Chunmei in 1968 when Su Wanhu was in the northern Shaanxi army, and this year Su Wanhu had just graduated from high school, and he responded to the call of the state to come to the NanshanLing Brigade in Mizhi County, northern Shaanxi province, and became a young intellectual.
At that time, there were more than twenty Zhiqing who joined the team with Su Wanhu, including five female Zhiqing, and the place where Su Wanhu joined the team was in the Nanshan Ridge team, and the captain was Wang Minghui, a native of northern Shaanxi, and under the leadership of Wang Minghui, the life of the fellow villagers was quite OK, at least every household could not be hungry.
Zhiqing lived in the cave was built by Wang Minghui and his compatriots for half a year, the quilts and mattresses on the kang were new, the five people of Zhiqing lived in a cave, and it rained for several days in northern Shaanxi, and the Zhiqing had nothing to do, Wang Minghui organized everyone to study, and told Zhiqing about the customs and customs of northern Shaanxi.
Zhiqing's place to eat and the place where he lived were not together, but it was very close, about five minutes away, Li Chunmei was the younger daughter of his fellow Li Yaohua, only one year younger than Su Wanhu, Li Yaohua had three daughters, the eldest daughter and the second daughter were already married, Li Yaohua planned to leave the younger daughter Li Chunmei around and recruit her a door-to-door son-in-law.
Li Chunmei has been working with her father since she was a child, handling housework, working very meticulously and sharply, Zhiqing's food is very light, basically no meat dishes, are some radish cabbage and potatoes, and some pickles sent by the hometown, the staple food is corn flour cakes, you can eat white noodle steamed buns once a week.
In the half a year since they came to northern Shaanxi, the Zhiqing people have not seen a little meaty, and many Zhiqing mouths are a little hungry, because Su Wanhu is a little older in Zhiqing, the big guys are all based on Su Wanhu, Su Wanhu is also a face-loving person, hard scalp to catch a chicken from his hometown, the big guys hid Li Chunmei and stewed this chicken to eat.
The next day Li Chunmei found Zhiqing, it turned out that Zhiqing left in the kitchen without cleaning up the chicken feathers, and this chicken is still Li Chunmei's family, under li Chunmei's persecution, the big guys unanimously indicated that the chicken was caught by Su Wanhu, betrayed by the big guys, Su Wanhu was also a stomach angry, Su Wanhu said to Li Chunmei, "The chicken was caught by me, now it is in my stomach, what do you want to do", Li Chunmei saw that Su Wanhu did not have a little sincerity, and his heart was also very angry, but things have happened, and there is no way to make up for it. Casually said "hooligan" and left angrily.
What Zhiqing did not expect was that the rice made by Li Chunmei in the next few days was simply difficult to swallow, either the salt was put too much, or the soup was scarce, the Zhiqing people ate for a few days, they really couldn't hold on, Zhiqing knew that this was Li Chunmei deliberately punishing them, but there was always a person who came out to admit the mistake, this time it was Su Wanhu, after all, the chicken was caught by him, Su Wanhu and Zhiqing together made money, and also bought a little gift, Su Wanhu personally went to Li Chunmei's house with gifts to apologize.
Li Chunmei is also very atmospheric, and did not be too embarrassed by Su Wanhu, but also left Su Wanhu to eat at home, Su Wanhu and Zhiqing made up the money to buy chicken, Li Chunmei used to buy meat, and wrapped a dumpling for Zhiqing, because of this matter, Su Wanhu was also impressed by Li Chunmei.
Later, Su Wanhu often went to find Li Chunmei when there was nothing to do, everyone knew Su Wanhu's thoughts, to say that Su Wanhu, in addition to a little greasy tongue, people are still reliable, it did not take long for Su Wanhu and Li Chunmei to fall in love, Su Wanhu and Li Chunmei talked about love for a year, Li Chunmei listened to his father's advice and Su Wanhu discussed marriage.
Li Yaohua's meaning is very clear is to let Su Wanhu be the son-in-law of the door, Su Wanhu told the family about this matter, but was opposed by his parents, this matter was also delayed, in 1973, Su Wanhu received a notice to return to the city, he and Li Chunmei's relationship also ended, when Su Wanhu left, Li Chunmei cried very sadly, Su Wanhu's heart was not a taste, Su Wanhu felt that it might be two people who had a fate.
After Su Wanhu returned to the city, under the introduction of his parents, he met a girl in the city, Jia Xiaoyan's parents are teachers, and the family conditions are not bad, so Jia Xiaoyan has a little temperament, Jia Xiaoyan has a little bad temper, Su Wanhu always let Jia Xiaoyan.
Perhaps this marriage was not suitable, after 10 years of marriage with Jia Xiaoyan, Su Wanhu and Jia Xiaoyan divorced, after the divorce Jia Xiaoyan took her daughter and a foreigner to live abroad, Su Wanhu did not come out for a long time after the divorce, it may be that this failed marriage hit Su Wanhu too hard, Su Wanhu has not been married later.
Su Wanhu is now living alone, and the monthly pension is enough for him to live, for the future life, Su Wanhu said," count the days.
