What do you say is the most difficult thing in this life? It's fate that gives you a big reversal when you feel hopeless.
It happened in 1987, my uncle, Li Dazhuang, was called "Leng Touqing" by the people in the village. He is the kind of person who has no culture, has a stubborn temper, and does not pay attention to things. But like this, he fell in love with the village chief's daughter, Li Cuifang.
Li Cuifang is a famous beauty in the village, with fair skin and big eyes, walking on the village road, followed by a string of young men's eyes. Her father is the village head, and the family conditions are very good, which young man doesn't want to talk to her? But Cuifang has always been dismissive, she is bent on finding someone who has a career in the city.
Therefore, when the uncle plunged headlong into this relationship, no one was optimistic about him. Even my mother often shook her head and sighed, "Da Zhuang, our Li family is the life of Xiatian, how can we climb the cuifang of others!" The people in the village also talked behind their backs, "This kid has taken the wrong medicine, and the toad wants to eat swan meat!" ”
But no one expected that the uncle would really become in the end.
That day, when I came back from the field, I was sitting in the yard munching corn, and my uncle suddenly hurried into the door, with a serious look on his face, which was completely different from the usual appearance of a child.
"Little nephew, I have decided, I want to marry Cuifang." He spoke directly.
I almost dropped the corn in my hand to the ground. "Are you crazy? Who in the village doesn't know that Cuifang's eyes are above the top? You're — how dare you think about it. ”
He glanced at me, with a disdainful smile on his face, "I know she doesn't look down on me, and I also know that the people in the village laugh at me, but I'm so stubborn, I still don't believe it, can the man of the old Li family bow down to her?" ”
"Uncle, don't you have any points in your heart? This is the village chief's daughter! ”
"So what's going on? The village chief's daughter can't like Lao Tzu? I tell you, a woman's heart, a needle under the sea. Wait, sooner or later she'll have to take a fancy to me. ”
I was speechless, thinking that you are quite confident.
As soon as the words fell, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside the courtyard gate, and Cuifang appeared.
She wore a red padded jacket today, reflecting her fair skin, and the whole person looked more energetic than usual. She walked into the courtyard and saw me and my uncle standing there, her brows furrowed, but a hint of hesitation flashed in her eyes.
"Da Zhuang, I have something to tell you." Her voice was soft, but I could tell her inner struggle.
The uncle immediately put down the hoe in his hand, stood up straight, and the expression on his face suddenly became serious. "Cuifang, just tell me something."
Cui Fang lowered her head and kicked the dirt under her feet, her voice trembling a little, "You really want to marry me?" ”
The uncle was stunned for a moment, and then a glimmer of light appeared in his eyes. "Of course! What I say is true. I, Li Dazhuang, never lie! ”
She was silent for a moment, then raised her head and looked at him with a determined gaze, "Okay, then do you dare to cut with me first?" ”
Uncle didn't understand for a while, and frowned, "What do you mean?" ”
Cui Fang sighed, "You know, my dad won't agree. He always wanted me to marry a college student in the city, but I didn't want to. I want to live with someone I like. ”
Uncle suddenly became excited, "Then you...... You like me? ”
Cuifang's face flushed slightly, but she still nodded, "I don't know, but I think you are sincere, much better than those who pretend." I'm willing to try. ”
At this moment, Uncle Xiao seemed to have found the stars in the sky all of a sudden, and the whole person was full of energy, "Cuifang, I, Li Dazhuang, swear to the sky, I will definitely be good to you!" No matter what happens in the future, I will work hard to give you a good day! ”
Cui Fang didn't say anything more, just nodded slightly. At that moment, I felt a strange emotion in the air, like a silent tacit understanding spreading between them.
But the next question is how to face Cuifang's father, the authoritative village chief Li Changsheng.
In the evening, my uncle ran home in a hurry and told my mother what had happened. When my mother heard this, she almost dropped the chopsticks in her hand. "You're crazy! Li Cuifang's father is the village chief! How can we farmers compare with others? You're thinking beautifully. ”
Uncle slapped the table unconvinced, "Mom, don't look down on our own family." My heart is sincere, I don't believe that God doesn't open his eyes! ”
My mother sighed, "Alas, your heart is true, but Li Changsheng doesn't believe it." ”
Uncle's determination this time seemed to be fearless, and even my mother could not shake his faith. A few days later, a rally was held in the village, and the village head, Li Changsheng, spoke in front of him, the content of which was nothing more than encouraging everyone to work more and strive for a bumper harvest this year. Uncle's mood was flying in the air, always thinking about how to show his heart to Li Changsheng.
After the rally, the people in the village dispersed one after another, and the uncle plucked up his courage and walked in front of Li Changsheng, trying to make himself appear calm despite the drumming in his heart. "Village chief, I have something I want to talk to you about."
Li Changsheng was slightly stunned, raised his eyebrows, looked at the uncle a few times, and a disdainful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "Oh? What's the matter with you, kid? ”
"I want to ...... with your daughter Cuifang" Before the uncle finished speaking, Li Changsheng snorted coldly and interrupted him.
"She's not for you. Our Li family wants a promising son-in-law, not a poor boy like you who has been digging in the fields all his life. ”
Uncle's face turned pale in an instant, and he felt a sense of loss in his heart, but he didn't give up, and thought to himself: I can't just retreat, Cuifang is still waiting for me.
"Village Chief, listen to me, I will work hard, with my hands, to give Cuifang a good future!" The uncle tried to suppress the uneasiness in his heart, and his tone was firm.
Li Changsheng smiled coldly, "Work hard? You want to marry my daughter because of this? Amusing! He shook his hand and turned away.
The uncle froze in place, feeling a sense of loss in his heart, as if all his courage had been taken away in an instant. He wanted to catch up, but couldn't. Just as he was feeling frustrated, Cuifang suddenly walked over from the side and gently patted him on the shoulder.
"Don't be discouraged. You're going to win my dad's approval. ”
Uncle came back to his senses, his eyes flashing with hope, "I'll do my best to prove it to him!" I'm not afraid of difficulties! ”
Cui Fang smiled slightly, "That's right." As long as we believe in each other, there is no difficulty that cannot be overcome. ”
So, from that day on, Uncle began his arduous and hopeful pursuit. He went to work in the fields in advance every day, desperately earning money and trying to improve himself. In the village, he began to take the initiative to help those in need, and the villagers gradually saw his changes and began to look at this former "Lengtouqing" with admiration.
Life passed like this, and after a few months, the people in the village gradually began to be moved by the determination and perseverance of the uncle, and even Li Changsheng began to hear about it. But Li Changsheng's attitude is still cold, and he still thinks that the uncle is not worthy of Cuifang.
Finally, one day, Cuifang plucked up the courage to go to her father, and her voice was firm and clear: "Dad, the person I like is Da Zhuang. He may not have the knowledge and wealth, but he is a responsible person who can be responsible for me. ”
Li Changsheng's face was gloomy, "If you want to marry a farmer, it's really useless!" ”
"But I'm willing to fight with him! I don't want to marry a hypocrite just for the sake of the family's face. Cuifang's tone became more and more determined.
When Li Changsheng heard this, he felt faintly dissatisfied in his heart, but he also felt helpless about his daughter's insistence. After several quarrels, Li Changsheng finally fell silent, as if he was thinking about it.
At this time, when the uncle learned about Cuifang's conversation with her father, he was moved, but also a little nervous. "Cuifang, do you think your dad will agree?"
Cui Fang looked at him seriously, "I don't know, but I'll try to make him understand your value." ”
Next, Cuifang began to take the initiative to help the uncle, let him learn some knowledge, explain the truth in the book, and accompany him to review some rules in the village. During this time, the changes in the uncle became more and more obvious, he not only learned a lot of things, but also gradually became more confident.
However, Li Changsheng never showed any signs of softening. Although the uncle was a little discouraged in his heart, he immediately cheered up when he thought of Cuifang's smile.
One night, Uncle Xiao and Cuifang were walking by the small river at the head of the village, and the moonlight shone on the water, shimmering and sparkling. Uncle looked at Cuifang, his heart was full of gratitude, "Cuifang, thank you so much for accompanying me through this difficult time." ”
Cui Fang smiled, "We are a family, of course we have to go together." ”
At this time, a bold thought flashed in the uncle's heart, "Otherwise, let's try to get married first, how about cutting first and then playing?" ”
Cui Fang was stunned for a moment, and then a smile rose at the corner of her mouth, "Good idea!" As long as you dare, I'll be with you! ”
So, they decided to secretly get married the following Saturday.
On the day of the wedding, Uncle Xiao and Cuifang were almost terrified to prepare. No one in the village knew about it, only me and a few iron buddies knew about the marriage. Uncle dressed like a model, and although he didn't have any fancy clothes, he still wore the best outfit.
"You're so handsome today, like a little groom." I quipped.
"Don't talk nonsense, my heart is almost jumping out of my chest." Uncle patted me on the shoulder vigorously, his face full of anticipation.
The wedding was held in a small temple in the village, and the villagers thought that the uncle had found a new daughter-in-law, but as soon as they entered the door, everyone found out that the bride was Li Cuifang, and their jaws were about to fall in surprise.
"What are you two doing?" Some of the people in the village looked at each other.
"Yes, yes, come, come! Uncle is actually with the village chief's daughter! One person shouted excitedly.
At this moment, Li Changsheng also appeared at the scene, his face full of anger, and he pointed at his uncle's nose, "You poor boy, how dare you do this?" ”
The uncle was not afraid, his eyes were firm, and his chest was slightly up, "Village Chief, I love Cuifang, I will definitely be good to her!" ”
Li Changsheng was stunned for a moment, and the surrounding villagers also silently cheered for the uncle, feeling that this young man was really backbone.
"Do you think you're worthy?" Li Changsheng said coldly, a touch of disdain appeared at the corner of his mouth.
The uncle was stunned for a moment, then took a deep breath and looked firm, "I'm not worthy, but I'm willing to work hard for her and give her a happy home!" ”
At this time, Cuifang stepped forward from behind, held her uncle's hand tightly, and looked firm, "Dad, it is my own choice to be with Da Zhuang, no matter how you look at it, we will not be separated!" ”
Li Changsheng was angry for a while, and he was helpless in his heart, so he could only turn around and leave in anger.
Under the witness of the villagers, Uncle and Cuifang finally entered the palace of marriage, although the wedding was simple, but full of sincere emotions. The uncle had a happy smile on his face, and Cuifang's eyes flashed with tears, revealing his expectations for the future.
After the wedding, life in the village gradually returned to peace. Uncle and Cuifang began a hard life, but the relationship between the two became deeper and deeper. The uncle worked harder in the fields, while Cuifang took care of his diet and daily life at home.
Although life is hard, they support each other and never complain, occasionally the uncle will tell some jokes to make Cuifang happy, and Cuifang warms the uncle's heart with her gentleness and carefulness.
However, the good times didn't last long, and Li Changsheng finally couldn't help but attack his uncle, secretly and constantly making stumbling blocks, trying to make their lives difficult. Although the uncle worked hard, he always hit a wall in business, and he couldn't even harvest a few acres of land.
The harder the uncle tried, the more Li Changsheng tried his best to suppress them, and even found some "robbers" from other villages to make trouble.
"This kid still dares to resist, teach him a hard lesson!" Li Changsheng roared angrily.
"But the village chief, this kid is very powerful now, everyone says that he can work, in case he is developed......" The subordinates around him were a little uneasy.
"Afraid of what? I don't believe he can turn the sky upside down! Li Changsheng gritted his teeth.
Finally, the uncle's life once again ushered in a huge test.
That night, the uncle was busy working in the fields when he suddenly heard a noise in the distance. He put down the hoe in his hand and ran in the direction of the sound. When he arrived, he found several people surrounding Cuifang, and some vicious words came out of his mouth from time to time.
"You poor boy, do you really think you can be the son-in-law of the village chief? You're a worthless peasant! One of the brawny men scoffed.
Uncle felt a burst of anger in his heart, and immediately rushed forward and blocked in front of Cuifang, "What are you doing here?" If you dare to be rude to my daughter-in-law again, you're welcome! ”
"Yo, isn't this Li Dazhuang? I didn't expect you to dare to resist! Another strong man stepped forward with a fierce expression.
Uncle's heart was beating faster, and he knew in his heart that if he fought, he would definitely not be their opponent, but he couldn't back down. In order to protect Cuifang, he silently clenched his fists, and a wave of courage ignited in his heart.
"Go away! I don't want to talk nonsense with you, get out of here! Uncle said this with all his might, but he knew in his heart that his voice was pale in front of these people.
"What, are you going to fight with us?" The brawny men looked at each other with mocking smiles, as if they were watching a ridiculous burlesque.
At this moment, Cui Fang pushed away the uncle and stood in front of him, her eyes resolute, "You are bullying my husband and trying to hurt him, I will not let you succeed!" ”
"Little girl, aren't you afraid?" One of the strong men asked contemptuously.
"I'm afraid, but I'm even more afraid that my husband will be hurt. I'd rather be hurt than have him wronged. Cuifang's voice was firm and powerful, like a sharp sword, piercing the hearts of those evil men.
The strong men were stunned for a moment, they didn't expect this seemingly weak woman to be so stubborn, and they were immediately shocked by her momentum.
"If you dare to do anything to my husband again, I will let the whole village know about your evil deeds!" Cuifang's voice was loud, with an irresistible aura.
At this moment, some people in the village also came one after another, and when they saw Cuifang standing up for the uncle, they surrounded them one after another, accusing those evil men. "What are you doing! Isn't it too much to bully people! ”
Seeing this, the strong men knew that the general trend had gone, and their hearts began to panic. "Don't think we're afraid of you! Wait and see! ”
After saying that, they left in a hurry, leaving Uncle and Cuifang there, with mixed feelings in their hearts.
The uncle looked at Cuifang and was so moved that he almost cried, "Are you really not afraid of them?" ”
"I'm afraid, but I'm even more afraid of losing you." Cuifang's voice was gentle, but her eyes revealed firm conviction.
This night, Uncle and Cuifang hugged each other tightly, although they experienced thrills, but also made their hearts closer. Uncle made up his mind that no matter what difficulties he encountered next, he would protect this woman he loved deeply.
A few days later, Uncle Xiao took Cuifang to visit the elders in the village and confide in them about his determination. When everyone heard their story, they expressed their support and were willing to help the uncle.
"You kid is so ambitious, I support you!" An old man in the village patted his uncle on the shoulder, his face full of relief.
"As long as you work hard, you will be able to overcome difficulties!" Another villager also said enthusiastically.
These words made the uncle feel very excited, and he knew that as long as there was everyone's support and Cuifang's company, they would be able to overcome all difficulties.
However, Li Changsheng did not stop there. He had always had the matter of his uncle in his heart, and decided to take more drastic measures. He found some people and prepared to make trouble in his uncle's field.
One night, the uncle was busy working in the fields when he suddenly heard a rustling sound. Alert, he walked quickly in the direction of the sound and found a group of people trying to destroy his crop.
"Boy, what do you want to do?" The uncle asked loudly, and his heart was very nervous.
"What are you doing here? Go away! The group came back to their senses and saw the uncle standing there upright, and immediately laughed disdainfully.
Uncle secretly thought, I can't let them succeed today! He bravely greeted him, trying to make himself as calm as possible, "If you dare to touch my land again, I will report it to the village chief!" ”
"What can you do if you report to the village chief? How could Li Changsheng help you? He doesn't take you seriously at all! The strong man at the head sneered and continued to rush towards the field.
"Don't go too far!" Uncle gritted his teeth, felt his heart beat like thunder, and strong anger burned in his chest. He rushed desperately and tried to stop them.
"It's overwhelming!" The strong men rushed towards the uncle together, moving quickly, and it seemed that they had already been ready.
At this moment, Cui Fang suddenly appeared, standing beside the uncle, with her hands on her waist, glaring at those people angrily, "If you dare to take another step, I will let everyone in the village know what you are doing!" ”
"Yo, I didn't expect this little girl to dare to quarrel." The strong men began to be a little cowardly, but they were still unwilling, "Do you think there will be people in the village who believe in you?" Go and ask everyone, who would support a farmer? ”
At this moment, several elders of the village also arrived, and when they saw this scene, they immediately understood what was happening, and shouted angrily at the strong men, "What are you doing here? Isn't it too much to bully people! ”
Seeing that the momentum was not right, the strong men immediately restrained their arrogance and hurriedly retreated outside the village, leaving Uncle and Cuifang in the field, secretly rejoicing in their hearts.
"Thank you, Cuifang!" The uncle looked at her affectionately, and his eyes flashed with gratitude.
"We're a family, of course we're going to face it together." Cui Fang smiled slightly and gently held the uncle's hand.
In the following days, although Li Changsheng was still secretly troubled, Uncle and Cuifang's hearts were always full of courage. Whenever they were busy in the fields, the people in the village would always come to help, and gradually, the uncle's reputation in the village became better and better, and everyone supported their efforts.
Finally, in the harvest season a year later, the uncle's field grew happily, and the harvest was much better than in previous years. The uncle was full of joy and specially invited the elders of the village to come to his house to celebrate this successful harvest.
"I tell you, what we want to celebrate today is not only the harvest, but also the growth of my uncle!" I stood aside, my heart full of emotion.
Everyone gathered together, ate a hearty meal, chatted about the changes in the uncle, and praised the uncle's efforts. Li Changsheng also received an invitation at this time, hesitated for a moment, and finally came.
When the uncle saw Li Changsheng, he was uneasy, but he decided not to be afraid anymore. "Village Chief, I have prepared a sumptuous meal today, please come and try it too."
Li Changsheng was slightly stunned, looking at the harvest in front of him, there was a trace of reluctance in his heart, so he nodded and agreed.
"Okay, I'll try your kid's craft." Although Li Changsheng had a cold attitude, his heart began to waver.
At the dinner table, everyone chatted enthusiastically, and the uncle took the initiative to raise a glass, "Thank you for your support to me and Cuifang!" I will definitely work harder to bring a better life to everyone! ”
Li Changsheng listened to his uncle's speech, a trace of complicated emotions flashed in his eyes, and perhaps he also began to think about whether those prejudices were too narrow.
The meal was lively and fulfilling, and Li Changsheng finally spoke, "Da Zhuang, you are indeed much better than I imagined, and the people in the village have also seen your efforts." I decided...... Support you and Cuifang. ”
This sentence was like a spring breeze in the uncle's ears, and he finally unloaded the burden in his heart. He looked at Cuifang gratefully, and the two couldn't help but clasp hands, feeling the tacit understanding and support in each other's hearts.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it is another year, the fields of the village are still shining golden in the sun, and the lives of Uncle and Cuifang are gradually on the right track. Their fields gradually expanded, and the surrounding villagers also asked Uncle for planting experience, as if Uncle had become an "agricultural expert" in the village.
Uncle and Cuifang's children are also growing up healthy and happy in this warm home, and the happiness of the family makes their hearts more closely connected. Uncle often thinks of those difficult days, and his heart is full of gratitude, it is those challenges that make him stronger and make their love deeper.
The people in the village began to describe the story of the uncle with "courage and perseverance", and the children all took the uncle as a role model and planted the seed of "hard work can succeed" in their hearts. Li Changsheng also unknowingly became one of Uncle Xiao's staunchest supporters, and his attitude gradually changed, and he was more tolerant and encouraging to the young people in the village.
Whenever the uncle was busy in the field, Cuifang always sat on the grass beside him, looking at him with gentle eyes, and her heart was full of happiness and satisfaction.
"You see, this is the life we once dreamed of." Uncle often sighed.
"Well, as long as we're together, nothing is a problem." Cuifang's smile was as warm as the sun, illuminating the uncle's heart.
Looking back on the past, Uncle Xiao understands that every challenge in life is a test of his will, and true love is to support each other and grow together in every difficulty.
In the end, Uncle and Cuifang proved their love with their persistence and hard work. In this village full of sunshine and hope, their story is like a melodious piece of music, conveying the power of perseverance and love.
As the ancients said, "A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step." "No matter how difficult the road ahead is, as long as you have love in your heart and strength in your hands, you will definitely be able to go to the other side of hope.
