Flowers bloom and fall, several degrees of spring and autumn.
At that time, the rolling wheels of light were crushed to the early eighties of the twentieth century, and the heroic Yang Gang had triumphed in the self-defense counterattack on the Sino-Vietnamese border, and because of his extraordinary performance, he was rewarded by the army for meritorious service, and he was soon promoted to a platoon commander in the army, and then in response to the call for a million disarmament, he left the barracks and returned to the local area, and was placed to work in a large town on the outskirts of the city, and then got married and started a family.
And Tian Mei, who is far away in a foreign land, but in the case of her parents pressing step by step, chattering and nagging, and easy to talk nonsense, she thought of the brotherhood of her brother and sister, and in order to complete the lifelong event of her eldest brother, especially she never received a word from her distant sweetheart, thinking that she was just in unrequited love, and the other party might have another love, and she had already changed her mind, so she bit her lip angrily, and reluctantly married Liu Deaf in Jiwo Village.
still remembers that on the night before she got married, Tian Mei was still unwilling and still making a hopeless struggle. Visitors from all over the world had a banquet at Tian's house, just when the bridesmaids were going to dress up for Tian Mei, they planned to send her to marry after the early morning, and suddenly, Tian Mei's figure was gone, she seemed to have evaporated from the house, so the guests in the house, and even the men and women on the village helped her inside and outside the house, and even the corners of the entire village, and searched all over the fields, but there was still no trace of her.
Just when people were lamenting and sighing and looking for hopelessness, Uncle An, the old man in the village, heard that Tian Mei was missing, so he hurriedly ran to Tian's house to report the news, saying that he went to Shilixi to go to relatives on the way back, and when he was about to wade across the river at the foot of Rufeng Mountain, he vaguely seemed to hear a voice crying in mourning, and he listened to it, under the ancient maple with half of the trunk on the waist of Rufeng Mountain, Uncle An thought that it was the man and woman who loved him who were answering the mountain song, so he had no intention of disturbing and did not think so.
After listening to Uncle An's breathless speech, the young and strong descendants immediately rushed to that side. Not far from the ancient maple tree, I saw a willow and wicker woman squatting on the ground, crying with tears and snot, sad and moving, so they pushed aside the thorns, and took a closer look, sure enough, it was Tian Mei, who was married the next day, and it took a while of persuasion to drag her down the mountain. There, there were good memories of her and Yang Gang, and the oath and sea alliance she and Yang Gang made here are still in my ears. Yes, her cry is to announce the complete end of her girlhood, and she feels confused and helpless pathos about her future.
With the relaxation and invigoration of the rural production responsibility system, people are no longer bound to the mountains and fields, and live the traditional farming life of working at sunrise and earning a daily income. After Tian Mei became a wife, she opened a restaurant called "Ruolong" on the edge of Jihao Township, not far from the village, which sold not only food, noodles, but also cold rice tofu. Because the store is clean and spacious, the buying and selling are fair, and the taste is right, Tianmei is beautiful and cheerful, the store is prosperous, and its fame is popular for a while. It is located in the center of the town, and it happens to be in the excellent location of the township, and when it comes to the market in May and October, it is full of guests and popular.
Coincidentally, after Yang Gang returned to his hometown, he was also placed here to work in the town government, serving as an armed officer, because his lover was farming at home, so the two lived a separate life like a cowherd and a weaver girl.
One night in October, Yang Gang went to the village to recruit soldiers and returned from a return visit, the town government canteen had already used dinner, but Yang Gang did not touch rice food for a day, and his stomach was so hungry that he was growling, and it happened that the canteen master went to play at another house after dinner, so Yang Gang had to drag his tired and hungry body to the street on the side of the town to think of ideas.
Due to the poor business of other restaurants, the people are sparse, and soon after, they closed their doors one after another, and the unique "Wakanong" restaurant is still brightly lit and noisy, and has not yet closed.
"Shopkeeper, next bowl of rice noodles." Yang Gang staggered to the door of the store and shouted loudly.
"I'm sorry, it's too late, our store is closing." Tian Mei curled her black hair in a bun, walked slowly, and explained to the helper in front of the stove.
"We especially don't welcome people who like the new and hate the old." Tian Mei put down a cruel sentence, twisted her thin waist, shook her hands, left a thin figure, and stomped around and walked into the back room.
"If you open a store and don't sell rice noodles, what else do you want to open?" After hearing this, Yang Gang felt inexplicable, and stood at the door of the store in a daze, confused, and slowly left helplessly for a long time. (To be continued)
