In the early 1970s, summer in a riverside village. Thirteen-year-old Wang Xu squatted by the river, concentrating on washing his sweatshirt. Suddenly, a crisp laugh came from upstream, it was 12-year-old Wang Xin. Wang Xu looked up and was stunned - Wang Xin was frolicking in the river, and the sun was shining on her long wet hair, shining with golden light.
Wang Xu hurriedly hid behind a big tree, his heart beating like a drum. He secretly glanced at the river, but unexpectedly met Wang Xin's eyes. "Ahh Wang Xin screamed and quickly got into the water, "Brother Xu, you stinky rascal!" "
"I... I didn't mean to," Wang Xu stammered as he explained, "I just came to do the laundry..."
Wang Xincai didn't care about this, she quickly got dressed, picked up a branch and rushed towards Wang Xu. "See if I don't kill you!" She roared, and the branches whirred.
Wang Xu dodged again and again, but he still took several hits. "Xinxin, listen to my explanation!" He shouted as he hid. (There is no need to modify here, because Wang Xu is correct to call Wang Xin "Xinxin")
"Explain what? I saw it with my own eyes! Wang Xin said angrily, and another stick was drawn. (There is no need to modify it here, because it is Wang Xin who is speaking)
In the end, Wang Xu fled home in disgrace. "Brother, how did you do this?" Sister Wang Ting asked in surprise.
Wang Xu touched the injuries on his body and said with a wry smile: "It's okay, I accidentally fell." "
Since then, Wang Xu has been hiding when he sees Wang Xin. Every time Wang Xin passed by, he would hide in the corner or behind a big tree, secretly looking at her distant back, and there was a feeling of indescribability in his heart.
Three years later, in the summer, 16-year-old Wang Xu helped his family sell watermelons at the market. In the midst of the crowd, he accidentally bumped into someone, "I'm sorry," he turned around apologizing, but was stunned - it was Wang Xin!
Wang Xin has grown a lot taller, her long black hair is tied in a bunch, and her eyes are brighter than she remembers. Wang Xu was fascinated and couldn't help but stretch out his hand.
"What are you doing?" Wang Xin shouted, "Want to take advantage again? As he spoke, he slapped him in the face. (There is no need to modify it here, because it is Wang Xin who is speaking)
"No, Xinxin, I..." Before Wang Xu finished speaking, he was punched and kicked by Wang Xin. (There is no need to revise here, because Wang Xu is correct to call Wang Xin "Xinxin") He fled in embarrassment, but he inexplicably began to miss Wang Xin in his heart.
"Brother, do you like Wang Xin?" Wang Ting was keenly aware of her brother's abnormality.
Wang Xu blushed, "No... Nothing. "
Wang Ting chuckled: "Liar! I see you peeking at people every day. "
"Tingting, don't talk nonsense." Wang Xu hurriedly stopped his sister.
In this way, Wang Xu began to secretly pay attention to Wang Xin's every move, but he never dared to approach. Wang Ting saw it in her eyes and often made fun of her brother, but she also secretly helped inquire about Wang Xin's news.
Time is like an arrow, and two years have passed in a blink of an eye. 18-year-old Wang Xu finally mustered up the courage and decided to confess to Wang Xin. He picked a large bouquet of wildflowers in the field and waited for Wang Xin to get out of school at the entrance of the village.
"Xinxin," seeing Wang Xin coming, Wang Xu was so nervous that his palms were sweating, "I... I like you. (There is no need to modify it here, because Wang Xu is correct to call Wang Xin "Xinxin")
Wang Xin was stunned for a moment, and then said angrily: "Wang Xu, you want to play hooligan again?" As he spoke, raising his hand was a slap.
"I didn't... I'm sincere..."Wang Xu covered his face, tears rolling in his eyes.
"Get out of here!" Wang Xin pushed Wang Xu away and left without looking back.
Wang Xu stood in place, the wildflowers in his hands scattered desolately. In the distance, Wang Ting saw this scene, sighed, and muttered to herself: "Brother, you fool..."
Wang Xu was heartbroken, but he still couldn't let go of his feelings for Wang Xin. He began to work hard, hoping to one day get ahead and win Wang Xin's heart. Every day, I go to work in the fields before dawn, and I am still busy in the fields at sunset.
The people in the village said: "Look at that Wang Xu, how diligent!" "
Wang Xin also heard these words, and gradually felt a little guilty in his heart. One day, when she was fetching water by the well, she saw Wang Xu, who was covered in mud, coming back from the field, and couldn't help but look twice.
Wang Xu noticed her gaze and smiled slightly: "Xinxin, it's hot, drink saliva." (There is no need to modify it here, because Wang Xu is correct to call Wang Xin "Xinxin")
Wang Xin was stunned for a moment, whispered "thank you", and left in a hurry.
A month later, a happy event was held in the village. At the banquet, someone coaxed Wang Xin to toast. Wang Xin was overwhelmed, and when he was in a dilemma, Wang Xu stood up.
"I'll drink for Shin Shin," he said, "and she can't drink." (There is no need to modify it here, because Wang Xu is correct to call Wang Xin "Xinxin")
Wang Xin looked at Wang Xu in surprise, and the latter winked at her.
"Good!" The guests applauded, "Wang Xu is righteous enough!" "
Wang Xu drank cup after cup, his face getting redder and redder. Wang Xin was shocked on the sidelines, and wanted to stop it several times, but he didn't know how to speak.
Finally, Wang Xu got drunk. Wang Xin hurriedly supported him: "Brother Xu, are you okay?" (There is no need to modify here, because it is correct for Wang Xin to call Wang Xu "Brother Xu") (There is no need to modify here, because it is correct for Wang Xin to call Wang Xu "Brother Xu")
Wang Xu smiled in a daze: "Xinxin, do you call me Brother Xu?" (There is no need to modify it here, because Wang Xu is correct to call Wang Xin "Xinxin")
Wang Xin's face flushed and he didn't make a sound. She helped Wang Xu back to his house and carefully helped him wipe his face and cover the quilt.
Wang Ting watched from the side and couldn't help but say, "Sister-in-law, thank you for taking care of my brother." (There is no need to revise here, because Wang Ting is correct to call Wang Xin "sister-in-law")
Wang Xin was stunned for a moment, and said softly: "It should be." "
Since that day, the relationship between the two has undergone a subtle change. Wang Xu began to take the initiative to help Wang Xin's family with farm work and repair the roof.
Once, Wang Xu was working on the roof of Wang Xin's house and accidentally fell down. Wang Xin exclaimed in surprise and ran over to help him: "Brother Xu, are you okay?" (There is no need to modify here, because it is correct for Wang Xin to call Wang Xu "Brother Xu") (There is no need to modify here, because it is correct for Wang Xin to call Wang Xu "Brother Xu")
Wang Xu grinned: "It's okay, it's just a fall." "
Wang Xin blushed and said, "Be careful, don't always be so reckless." "
Wang Xu's heart warmed, and he smiled: "Okay, I'll listen to Xinxin." (There is no need to modify it here, because Wang Xu is correct to call Wang Xin "Xinxin")
However, the good times were short-lived. Some people in the village were not used to the intimacy of the two and began to spread gossip.
"Have you heard? Wang Xu runs to Liu's house every day, could it be that he wants to seduce Wang Xin? "
"But it's not, Wang Xin's father and mother don't look down on his family!"
These words reached the ears of Wang Xin's parents, and they tried their best to obstruct the communication between the two.
Wang Xin's father said angrily to his daughter: "I don't allow you to have any more dealings with Wang Xu!" His family is so poor that he can give you a good life? "
Wang Xin lowered his head, not daring to refute.
When Wang Xu learned of this, his heart was like a knife. He found Wang Xin and said, "Xinxin, I will work hard." I'm going to work outside, and I'm sure you'll have a good life! (There is no need to modify it here, because Wang Xu is correct to call Wang Xin "Xinxin")
Wang Xin's eyes were red: "Brother Xu..." (there is no need to modify here, because Wang Xin is correct to call Wang Xu "Brother Xu")
In this way, Wang Xu embarked on the road of going out to work. He moved bricks on construction sites and worked in factories to save money for the bride price. Every month, he would send a letter to Wang Xin to express his lovesickness.
Wang Xin waited silently at home, under pressure from all directions. Every time she received Wang Xu's letter, she would secretly hide under the willow tree and read it repeatedly, with tears in her eyes.
Finally, in the tenth year of their acquaintance, 25-year-old Wang Xu and 24-year-old Wang Xin achieved positive results.
On the day of the wedding, the whole village came to congratulate them. Wang Ting excitedly held Wang Xin's hand: "Sister-in-law, you finally married my brother!" (There is no need to revise here, because Wang Ting is correct to call Wang Xin "sister-in-law")
Wang Xin smiled shyly: "Yes, Tingting." (There is no need to modify it here, because Wang Xin is correct to call Wang Ting "Tingting")
However, the sweetness of the newlywed Yan'er did not last long. After Wang Xin married into the Wang family, she found that the conditions of her in-law's family were even more difficult than she imagined.
"Brother Xu, why is this house so broken?" Wang Xin said with a frown. (There is no need to modify it here, because Wang Xin is correct to call Wang Xu "Brother Xu")
Wang Xu scratched his head in embarrassment: "Xinxin, don't worry, let's take our time..." (There is no need to modify here, because Wang Xu is correct to call Wang Xin "Xinxin")
The trivial matters of firewood, rice, oil and salt, coupled with the run-in of the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, made Wang Xin, who was originally a little hot, often impetuous.
"Why are you getting dirty again?" Wang Xin said angrily, "I can't finish washing clothes every day!" "
Wang Xu smiled helplessly: "I'm sorry, Xinxin, I'll pay attention next time." (There is no need to modify it here, because Wang Xu is correct to call Wang Xin "Xinxin")
Life after marriage doesn't seem to be as good as the two imagined.
Life after marriage is not as sweet as imagined. One day, Wang Xu came home from work and found Wang Xin vigorously scrubbing his work clothes in the yard.
"Xinxin, don't wash it, I'll do it." Wang Xu walked over and said. (There is no need to modify here, because Wang Xu is correct to call Wang Xin "Xinxin")
Wang Xin raised his head, his eyes red: "Do you know how difficult these muds are to wash?" Every day! With that, she grabbed the washboard and hit Wang Xu.
Wang Xu couldn't dodge and was hit in the arm by the washboard. He grinned in pain, but he just whispered, "I'm sorry, Xinxin, I'll pay attention in the future." (There is no need to modify it here, because Wang Xu is correct to call Wang Xin "Xinxin")
Wang Ting couldn't see it, and persuaded: "Brother, you have to be tougher!" "
Wang Xu shook his head and said with a smile: "Tingting, you don't understand. She beats is kissing, scolding is love. "
A few days later, Wang Xu came home from work and smelled a burning smell. He rushed into the kitchen and saw Wang Xin crying in front of the stove.
"What's wrong, Shin Shin?" Wang Xu asked with concern. (There is no need to modify here, because Wang Xu is correct to call Wang Xin "Xinxin")
Wang Xin sobbed and said, "I... I accidentally burned a big hole in your only decent shirt..."
Wang Xu looked at the scorched black shirt, then at Wang Xintong's red fingers, and said distressedly: "It's okay, you can buy it again if the clothes are broken, as long as you are not burned." "
Wang Xin was stunned, and tears came out of her eyes: "Brother Xu, I'm sorry... I'm always angry with you..."(There is no need to modify it here, because Wang Xin is correct to call Wang Xu "Brother Xu")
Wang Xu hugged her gently: "Fool, I know you are worried about our lives." "
At this moment, Wang Xin felt the warmth of her husband, and the guilt in her heart came like a tide. Since then, she has begun to reflect on her actions and try to change her temper.
One day, Wang Xu came home and saw a plate of fragrant braised pork on the table.
"This is...," Wang Xu asked in surprise.
Wang Xin said a little shyly: "I thought you liked to eat this the most, so I tried to make it." "
Wang Xu was so moved that he couldn't speak, and ate silently.
However, the pressure of life has not been alleviated by the warming of the relationship between the two. Once, over the issue of the child's tuition, the two had another dispute.
"Can't you make more money?" Wang Xin said angrily.
Wang Xu replied tiredly: "I'm already doing my best, Xinxin." "
Wang Xin was dizzy for a while, and she was going to get the washboard again. But this time, her hand stopped in mid-air. Suddenly, she threw herself into Wang Xu's arms and cried bitterly.
"I'm sorry, Brother Xu... I didn't mean to..."Wang Xin said, sobbing. (There is no need to modify it here, because Wang Xin is correct to call Wang Xu "Brother Xu")
Wang Xu hugged his wife tightly: "I know, Xinxin." Let's work together, shall we? (There is no need to modify it here, because Wang Xu is correct to call Wang Xin "Xinxin")
Since then, the washboard has become a special presence in their home. Whenever there is a conflict between the two, Wang Xin will pick up the washboard, but not to beat people, but to wash clothes.
In the process of washing clothes, the two of them also slowly washed away the mustard in their hearts. Wang Xu would often stand aside when Wang Xin was washing clothes, helping her wring out her clothes, and the two talked and laughed, as if they had returned to their youth.
One afternoon years later, the elderly Wang Xu and Wang Xin sat in the yard and watched their grandchildren play under the trees. Wang Xin pointed to the old washboard hanging on the wall, and said with a smile: "Brother Xu, do you remember this?" (There is no need to modify here, because Wang Xin is correct to call Wang Xu "Brother Xu")
Wang Xu stroked Wang Xin's hand, his eyes were full of tenderness: "How can you forget?" It's a testament to our whole life. "
Wang Xin leaned on Wang Xu's shoulder and whispered, "Thank you for always tolerating me, Brother Xu." (There is no need to modify here, because Wang Xin is correct to call Wang Xu "Brother Xu")
Wang Xu smiled and said, "Thank you for always accompanying me, Xinxin." (There is no need to modify it here, because Wang Xu is correct to call Wang Xin "Xinxin")
The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the old couple, and the washboard, which used to be a "weapon", is now quietly hanging on the wall, becoming a testimony of their unforgettable love.
