It was in 2000 when one of my junior high school classmates paid 6,000 yuan to buy a wife from a trafficker. This incident caused a sensation in their village at the time.
This junior high school classmate of mine is named Li Hua, and his home is deep in a big mountain on our side. Due to poor family conditions, he did not continue his studies after graduating from junior high school, but chose to go out to work. In the process of working part-time, he met a girl from Guizhou, and the two quickly established a relationship. However, when he brought the girl home to meet her parents, he was opposed by them. They think that the girl's family is very bad, and there are several younger brothers in the family who will drag Li Hua down, and she is not a local and is not suitable to be their daughter-in-law.
But Li Hua loves this girl very much, and he doesn't want to give up this relationship. So, he decided to elope with the girl. They came to the provincial capital of Hangzhou together and started a new life. However, life is not as good as it seems. Since they have no education and skills, they can't find good jobs and can only make ends meet by working as waiters in restaurants and doing some handymen. In this case, the girl began to complain that Li Hua was not able to give her a good life, and there were more and more contradictions between the two.
One day, the girl suddenly proposed to break up. She said that she didn't want to live this kind of hard life anymore, and she wanted to find her own happiness. Li Hua was very sad, but he had no way to keep the girl. After the breakup, Li Hua felt very lonely and helpless. He felt that he was simply nothing, that no one loved him anymore, and that no one cared about him anymore.
In this disheartened situation, Li Hua thought that it was better to spend money to buy a wife. He had heard that in some poor areas, there were many girls who had been exchanged for money by their families because of their poor family conditions. So, he took out all his savings, borrowed some money from relatives and friends, scraped together enough 6,000 yuan, and then bought a wife from traffickers through an intermediary introduction.
The girl's name is Wang Fang, and she is also a rural girl from a poor mountainous area. Her family conditions are very poor, so she came out early to work. Who knew that once we were abducted by traffickers disguised as recruiting workers. When she was brought to Li Hua, she felt very scared and helpless. She didn't know what kind of life she was going to face, and she certainly didn't know if this man would be nice to her.
However, in fact, Li Hua is very good to Wang Fang. He bought her a lot of new clothes and shoes, and often took her to eat delicious food. He told Wang Fang that he would take good care of her, live a good life together, and definitely let her live a happy life. All this made Wang Fang feel Li Hua's sincerity and kindness, and after they were together, she began to slowly accept him.
As time went by, the relationship between Wang Fang and Li Hua got better and better. They work hard together and run their own small family together. Although life was still very difficult at that time, they felt very happy and satisfied. However, this happiness did not last long. Not long after they gave birth to a son, the police learned about Li Hua's purchase of a wife and quickly took him away.
Wang Fang was also sent back to her hometown. This incident caused a great sensation in the local area, and later because Li Hua pleaded guilty and had a good attitude, he was sentenced to one year in prison. After Wang Fang returned to her hometown, she looked at the son in her arms and remembered that Li Hua was good to her, and although Li Hua's family was not in good condition, it was still much better than theirs, so when Li Hua was about to be released from prison, she took her son back to Li Hua's house. Later, the two of them worked to save money, contracted to plant fruit trees in the mountains and forests, and their lives got better day by day, and they built a new house a few years ago, and their son is now about to graduate from college. Marriage and relationship are really unclear to anyone, maybe it's fate.
