In 1973, the 54.1 yuan of living expenses kept by Zhang Yangzhou, an educated youth, disappeared on behalf of others, and the brigade sent people to investigate but found nothing. When he was depressed, Yizhiqing secretly approached Zhang Yangzhou's ear: "Could it be that Xiaoqin Nizi stole it?"
Zhang Yangzhou hurriedly covered his mouth, looked left and right at no one, and then let go and told him: "Don't talk nonsense, so as not to hurt the reputation of other girls!"
But Zhang Yangzhou didn't expect that the fire burned on his body and made him carry the black pot for many years.
This matter has to start with Zhang Yangzhou going to Zhaojiazhuang to settle down in the fourth team. At that time, there were a total of 9 educated youths with Zhang Yangzhou, and they lived together in the three houses of the production team.
Zhang Yangzhou, who is a good person and enthusiastic, was elected by everyone as the group leader, so the living expenses were handed over to him for safekeeping.
When he first arrived in the countryside, the captain was afraid that they would not know how to cook, so he called Aunt Li to help.
And Li Xiaoqin is Aunt Li's daughter, who was not 12 years old at the time and had just graduated from elementary school. Because Zhaojiazhuang does not have a junior high school, Li Xiaoqin can only go to boarding if she wants to continue studying. But her family was poor and couldn't afford to pay the expenses, and her father was paralyzed and needed to be taken care of at home, so Li Xiaoqin did not continue to study.
Because she often goes to help Aunt Li, Li Xiaoqin is also familiar with Zhang Yangzhou.
She is beautiful, enthusiastic and very likable, and when she meets the educated youth, she will always greet them first, and often carry firewood for the educated youth, and lead the way to fetch water for them.
Later, after Aunt Li helped the educated youths cook for one month, it became clear that they already knew how to cook, so she obeyed the captain's instructions and went back to her home to prepare for labor.
But in her spare time, Aunt Li often asks Li Xiaoqin to bring a little sauerkraut and delicious food to the educated youth. In this way, Li Xiaoqin quickly got along with everyone.
Until 1973, an educated youth was recommended as a worker, peasant and military commissioner and went to Jiangsu Water Conservancy Engineering College as a junior college student. Seeing the opportunity to return to the city for further study, many educated youths were boosted by their morale, and after getting off work, they began to pick up their textbooks.
Li Xiaoqin, who often comes to Zhiqing Point, saw their changes, knew their ideals, and her eyes revealed longing and envy. She said with disappointment: "I also like to read, but if I want to study, I have to go to the commune middle school, and I have to live in the dormitory, and my family can't provide me with education." ”
Seeing the loss of a young girl defeated by reality, Zhang Yangzhou was very sorry. But he can't protect himself, and he can only help her family affairs.
But when Zhang Yangzhou is free, he will teach Li Xiaoqin junior high school courses. It was at this time that Li Xiaoqin, who had no expectations for her studies, slowly had light in her eyes. Her thirst for knowledge could no longer be suppressed, and when she returned home, she told her parents that she wanted to continue studying.
But the situation at home is there, and there is no money for her to continue studying. Li Xiaoqin was determined to make trouble with her parents this time, and even said that she would not eat if she didn't study, Aunt Li was so angry that her tears fell and she was helpless.
Zhang Yangzhou shook his head and sighed when he found out. In those days, there were too many people who couldn't help themselves.
But he soon couldn't take care of Li Xiaoqin's family's affairs, because the living expenses handed over to him by the educated youths were stolen!
Zhang Yangzhou is the captain of the squad, and every time the dividends come down, others will hand over their living expenses to him for safekeeping. Not long ago, each person just handed over 7 yuan, plus the previous balance of 5.1 yuan of living expenses, a total of 54.1 yuan in Zhang Yangzhou's hands.
Zhang Yangzhou kept his living expenses in an aluminum lunch box and put them under his bed. But when he wanted to take the money from it to make soy sauce, he found that the money was missing.
He quickly called the others and asked if anyone was in or out of the room, and everyone shook their heads. Together, they inspected the doors, windows, and locks and found them all intact. Everyone had nothing to gain, so they could only report to the captain quickly.
Knowing that someone had stolen money, the captain called the public security in the commune to investigate. But after visiting and inspecting, nothing was found, and finally it was concluded: it should be done by the educated youth, or the guards stole themselves!
Zhang Yangzhou, who heard this conclusion, was greatly hurt. First, it was because he was ineffective in keeping the custody, and second, the investigation found that the guards were stealing from themselves, and they were pointing the finger at themselves.
But at the moment, it is absolutely impossible to live without living expenses. After thinking about it, Zhang Yangzhou could only ask for leave and rush home overnight, explain the situation to his parents, and scrape together enough money to go back.
When others saw this, they felt that they couldn't go away, so they wanted to bear it together. But Zhang Yangzhou said: "It's me who didn't take care of everyone's living expenses, and I should have paid for this money." ”
This matter came to an end, but Zhang Yangzhou suddenly heard that Li Xiaoqin went to study in the Commune Union. She eats and lives at the school and comes back once a week.
An educated youth hurriedly ran over and asked Zhang Yangzhou in a low voice: "Could it be that Xiaoqin stole the money to study?"
Thinking of Xiaoqin's simple and motivated eyes, and her busy helping figure in the past, Zhang Yangzhou quickly covered the mouth of the educated youth and said: "There is no evidence, don't guess casually, you have mistaken the reputation of other girls." ”
But Zhang Yangzhou never thought that because he couldn't find the person who stole the money for a long time, there were rumors that he was guarding himself and stealing and acted in such a scene.
Zhang Yangzhou could only deal with these rumors with a wry smile, his mouth grew in other people's mouths, and he couldn't get the truth himself, so he could only memorize this black pot.
But he didn't know that this misunderstanding would affect the direction of his life.
In the next few years, the people from the educated youth point were slowly recruited to the city, and only 2 people were left behind, including Zhang Yangzhou.
Because he was the team leader, and because he was suspected of self-theft, he was unable to recruit workers into the city.
At this time, Li Xiaoqin had graduated from junior high school. After graduating from junior high school, her family said that she would not let her go to high school again, so she stayed in the village to study high school on her own.
In her spare time, she would go to Zhang Yangzhou to play and help him cook. At this time, Li Xiaoqin had become a beautiful girl, and Zhang Yangzhou was afraid that she would be gossiped about, so he often reminded her. But Li Xiaoqin didn't care: "At the beginning, others said that you were guarding and stealing, didn't you come over like this?"
In desperation, Zhang Yangzhou could only go with her, but her words warmed him.
Later, after the resumption of the college entrance examination, Zhang Yangzhou and Li Xiaoqin both took the college entrance examination. Li Xiaoqin was admitted to Yangzhou Normal School, but Zhang Yangzhou was unsuccessful. He also rested, and was recruited to work in the factory in the spring of the following year.
But every Sunday, Li Xiaoqin would always go to Zhang Yangzhou to play, encouraging him not to give up and continue the college entrance examination.
Under her encouragement, Zhang Yangzhou worked hard and was admitted to Li Xiaoqin's Yangzhou Normal School and became her junior. After so many years of companionship, the two have a common language at school, and they slowly walk together. They decided that when Zhang Yangzhou had a job, the two would get married.
The day before receiving the certificate, Li Xiaoqin said to Zhang Yangzhou nervously: "I have to confess one thing to you, if you don't forgive me, I won't blame you." ”
It turned out that Zhang Yangzhou's 54.1 yuan was taken by Aunt Li for Li Xiaoqin to study. In the past few years, the mother and daughter have always felt guilty when they heard others say that Zhang Yangzhou was guarding and stealing, but they didn't dare to stand up for him.
Li Xiaoqin asked with red eyes: "I know it was our fault at the beginning, can you forgive me." ”
I never thought about it, but Zhang Yangzhou was not surprised, but just smiled and said to her: "The matter has long passed, let's forget it!"
It turned out that he had long known that it was Li Xiaoqin and the others who stole it, because the key to the Zhiqing Point was only known to Li Xiaoqin's mother and daughter and the captain. The captain won't take their living expenses, not to mention that Li Xiaoqin will go to junior high school in a few days. It's just that Zhang Yangzhou has good intentions and doesn't want Li Xiaoqin to be hurt.
After Li Xiaoqin found out, she couldn't cry: "I'm sorry, and thank you......"
In this way, the two will smile and erase the past and look to the future.
Later, they got married. At school, Li Xiaoqin is the favorite teacher of her classmates, and at home, she is the most sensible and filial daughter-in-law in the eyes of her in-laws.

Many people exaggerate that Yangzhou is lucky to marry such a gentle, beautiful and virtuous wife.
Zhang Yangzhou looked at Li Xiaoqin with happy eyes: "No, our family has burned high incense to marry such a good daughter-in-law." ”
In the face of injustice, Zhang Yangzhou chose to remain silent because of kindness, but he was gifted by fate, allowing him to gain a lifelong partner.
Seon lost his horse, how do you know if it is a blessing?
Blessings and misfortunes always depend on each other, and if you have good thoughts, one day, good fortune will definitely be returned to you.
Even if it does not come in this life, it will continue to the future generations.
Because once the fruit of kindness is planted, it will surely take root and sprout and benefit the people around it.
