In the distant Jiangnan water town, there is a place called Liuxi Village, where the four seasons are distinct, the water network is dense, and it is a typical land of fish and rice. The people of the village live a simple and fulfilling life, farming and raising fish, working at sunrise and resting at sunset. However, in this quiet village, there is also an old saying: "A good wife is afraid of not having a good man, and a girl is afraid of marrying a bastard." Behind this sentence, there are hidden stories about farming and life.
The protagonist of the story is a farmer named Li Tiezhu. Tiezhu is young and strong, hardworking and hardworking, and is a well-known farmer in the village. However, his married life was not satisfactory. Although his wife, Xiaofang, was gentle and virtuous, she was too weak and sickly to work in the fields like other peasant women. Although Tie Zhu felt sorry for his wife, he also felt powerless in the face of heavy farm work.
One day, the matchmaker in the village came to Tiezhu's house and said that she had introduced him to a girl named Cuihua. Cuihua is young, beautiful, healthy, and recognized as a good girl in the village. Tie Zhu listened to the matchmaker's introduction, and his heart couldn't help but move. He thought that if he married Cuihua, she would be able to help him share the farm work, and their life would be better.
However, Xiaofang resolutely opposed Tie Zhu's marriage to Cuihua. She cried and said to Tiezhu, "I know that I am not in good health and cannot help you with farm work. But I'm willing to do the housework for you and take care of your diet and daily life. I beg you, don't forsake me, don't marry another woman. Tie Zhu looked at Xiao Fang's haggard face, and his heart was full of contradictions. He wanted to marry a wife who could help him with farm work, but he didn't want to live up to Xiaofang's affection.
Just when Tiezhu was hesitating, a big event happened in the village. A thug named Zhang Dacang suddenly returned to the village. He relied on his physical strength to oppress the villagers and do all kinds of evil. The villagers dared to be angry but did not dare to speak, so they could only swallow their anger. However, Cuihua was unfortunately taken by Zhang Dacang. He came to the door many times to pester, and even threatened Cuihua to be unkind to her family if she didn't marry him.
Cuihua was forced to be helpless, so she had to find Tiezhu for help. She cried and said to Tie Zhu, "Brother Tie Zhu, I know you are a good person. I beg you, help me get rid of this bastard Zhang Cannon. I don't want to marry him, I just want to marry a good man who is hardworking and kind. Tie Zhu looked at the face of Cuihua Pear with rain, and a strong desire to protect welled up in his heart. He decided to step up and stand up for Cuihua.
Tie Zhu found Zhang Dacang and said to him solemnly: "Zhang Dacang, you have bullied the villagers and done all kinds of evil. Cuihua is a good girl, and she doesn't want to marry you. If you dare to pester her again, you're welcome! Zhang Dacang couldn't help laughing when he heard Tiezhu's words. He said mockingly to Tiezhu: "You are a farmer who farms, and you dare to argue with me? I'm telling you, Cuihua will be my person sooner or later! ”
Tie Zhu was enraged by Zhang Cannon's words. He clenched his fists, ready to make a move with Zhang Dacan. However, at this moment, Xiao Fang suddenly rushed out. She hugged Tiezhu's arm tightly and begged, "Tiezhu, don't be impulsive. We can't fight Zhang Cannon. Tie Zhu looked at Xiao Fang's worried eyes, and his heart softened. He lowered his fist, took a deep breath, and said to Zhang Dacang, "Zhang Dacang, I warn you. If you dare to pester Cuihua again, I won't be done with you! ”
Seeing Tiezhu's resolute attitude, Zhang Dacang did not dare to act rashly. He left the Iron Pillar house in a gloomy manner. Cuihua looked at the back of the iron pillar, and her heart was full of gratitude and admiration. She decided that no matter who she married in the future, she would be as brave and kind as an iron pillar.
After this incident, Tie Zhu and Xiao Fang's relationship became even deeper. They support each other and face the hardships of life together. And Cuihua finally married a good man who was hardworking and kind. Her life, though ordinary, is full of happiness and contentment.
This story spread in Liuxi Village and became a good story. People sighed: "A good wife is afraid of not having a good man, and a girl is afraid of marrying a bastard." "They understand a truth: on the road of life, choosing a hard-working, kind, brave and upright partner is more important than anything else. Only such people can work hand in hand with you to create a better future together.
