My father was a well-known carpenter in the village, and in those days, men with good craftsmanship were often very popular, which meant that the family did not have to worry about eating and wearing.
He can repair home appliances, can do carpentry, often repair household appliances for people in the village without money, some poor people have no money to make tables and chairs, he will even pay for others to do it out of his own pocket.
But such a good man, his own electric light is broken, or will be used, lazy to repair, the bowl is missing two mouths, do not want to buy new.
Others say he's a good worker and never sees him as he really is at home.
Dad was the eldest son of the family, he also had a younger brother, helpless, the eldest son was not favored, grandpa gave most of the family property to my uncle.
Dad did not fight, even if it was originally his house, he also gave it to his uncle.
Therefore, my uncle had 2 rooms, one for people and one for pigs, but our family lived in the neighbor's firewood room.
My mother was also a gentle and virtuous person, and at that time, she was a good wife in other people and had a good temper.
Unfortunately, after I slowly understood things, my mother's temper became grumpy and fierce.
She scolded my father as a wooden man, a man who didn't use his strength, and the dirty words in his mouth didn't stop, and she also fought with the women in the village.
Because my aunt's family took our family's rice without consent, my mother quarreled with my uncle's house for 3 days, and the whole street knew about the quarrel.
Because Grandpa thinks that a girlfriend is half a child, I can only count half a grandson, the New Year he sent 1 yuan to his brother to press the old age money, only give me 5 cents to press the old age money, my mother and grandpa quarreled throughout the New Year, and even the village committee also moved.
At that time, she must have been forced into a desperate situation in life.
I used to feel sympathetic to the "good man" dad and felt that mom was oppressing him.
Don't let Dad smoke, turn in every penny you earn.
Don't let Dad play mahjong, otherwise he won't cook for days in a row.
However, it wasn't until I made money to make a living that I understood that my mother must have been very tired during those years.
To be a strong person is only to be forced by life.
If my dad can be strong enough to protect a small family like ours, does he still need my mom to storm and self-destruct the image?
If it weren't for my mom threatening my dad – "If you don't give me the money, I'll divorce you."
Our family may not be able to live in a new house in this lifetime.
Because My grandfather couldn't see that my family was better than my uncle's family, he knew that my father had some money in his hand, so he found an excuse to borrow money.
Where is the borrowing of money, obviously it is robbery, the money lent out, has never been repaid.
If it weren't for my mother forcing my father — "If you dare to cut off my daughter's tuition, I will go back to my mother's house with my daughter and never come back."
I may have been forced to drop out of school early to work.
Because grandpa and uncle repeatedly brainwashed dad, "What is the use of girls reading, they will all marry in the future, don't waste money."
It was my mother who protected my desire to study.
My mother was tough all her life, but she carried our family, and it was she who shielded me from the world's vision and the wind, frost, rain and snow of life.
If a gentle woman changes after marriage, becomes tough and unreasonable, it must be something she has experienced.
The culprit is that the man did not take on the responsibilities of his husband.
The man who seemed honest and docile was nothing more than a shrunken-headed turtle, keeping the good reputation to himself and the bad guy to his wife.
