The early winter of 1985 was cold and frosty.
After a day of tossing, I was tired of putting the public food, but the Li family did not have any sleep.
Old man Li squatted in the corner between the kang and the wall, smoking a cigarette, unable to say a word for a long time.
He didn¡¯t speak, and neither did Li Guangzhu and his wife Li Guilan.
The low and cramped space was filled with thick and choking smoke, which made people suffocate.
Finally, it was Li Yonggang who was sitting on a pony by the window who spoke.
He frowned, and his intact left hand stroked his right hand that was missing two fingers. He sighed and said, "Grandpa, parents, if the Guo family doesn't agree, let's just wait. I'm only twenty." , work hard for a few years and save some money, and we¡¯ll talk about it in a few years. If Chunyang doesn¡¯t like it, let¡¯s not force her. Besides, it¡¯s not nice to talk about it. You can¡¯t let our old Li family hold their heads high because of me. ah."
Li Yonggang is the first son of Li Guangzhu and Li Guilan. He has an older sister who married to Xishan Village next door two years ago. He also has two younger brothers and a younger sister. The Chunyang I just mentioned is her younger sister. She is only fourteen years old this year. .
His right hand was broken when he was naughty and improperly cut grass with the production team's guillotine when he was a child. There is one middle finger and one index finger, which will affect him to some extent when doing delicate work.
Ever since his finger was cut off, his family had been afraid that he would not be able to get a wife because of this. Fortunately, he tried his best. Last winter, when he went to the mountains to get a side job, he made eye contact with Cao Yun, a girl from the same village who was cooking there. The two young men started sneaking around. Stayed for more than half a year.
Cao Yun is the same age as Li Yonggang. She is a beautiful and diligent girl, but her family situation is quite complicated.
She was picked up by her mother, Cao Peiyu, while she was washing clothes by the river. At that time, Cao Peiyu was a widow and dependent on her mother, who was paralyzed in bed. A few years later, Cao Peiyu remarried Guo Houze, an intellectual who was transferred from the city, and gave birth to a pair of twin sons, named Guo Zhien and Guo Zhili. Among them, Guo Zhili was born stupid, while Guo Zhien was a normal child. Guo Houze passed away suddenly five years ago. Fifteen-year-old Cao Yun and his mother Cao Peiyu took care of his grandmother and younger brothers, and their life was very difficult.
The Guo family is poor. When Guo Zhili and Guo Zhien are older, they still don¡¯t know if they will be able to marry each other. Especially Zhili, who is a born fool, who from a nicer family would want to marry a girl to him.
After Cao Peiyu found out that Cao Yun and Li Yonggang were dating, she took up the idea of ??a girl from the Li family.
Li Chunyang is fourteen years old, one year younger than Zhien Zhili, so he is quite suitable for his age. If the Li family agrees, they will change marriages. Cao Yun will marry to the Li family, and Chunyang will marry to the Guo family. They will wait until they are old enough in a few years before getting married.
Their place is not a good place, with many mountains and little land, it is far from the town, and they have been poor since they were born. There was an exchange of relatives a few years ago. It has been many years since I heard of someone changing relatives. The Li family has been hesitant for fear of being poked in the back.
There was silence in the room for a long time, and Li Guilan opened her mouth and said: "Silly boy, who doesn't know that the girl from the old Guo family is pretty, and there are many people who care about her. It turns out that the son of Captain Zhao of the production team fell in love with her, why is she from the Zhao family? Condition, if anything happens we don¡¯t have anywhere to cry."
" Li Yonggang, the boy from the Zhao family whom Li Guilan was talking about, also knew him. They worked together when they were working on the side business. He was tall, strong, energetic and capable, and his family conditions were good. If he didn't switch to the Guo family, he would definitely choose the boy from the Zhao family.
Thinking of this, Li Yonggang lowered his head gloomily, his attitude obviously not as firm as before.
Old Man Li took out the cigarette bag from his breast pocket, pinched out a handful of tobacco and pressed it into the pipe. After lighting it, he took a deep breath and asked in a deep voice: "Where is Chunyang? Call her in and tell her that you want to continue school. Just go to Guo's house, our family has no money to support her."
Chunyang, who had been squatting in front of the stove pit in the outer room with his second brother and his younger brother, gnawing roasted potatoes, trembled when he heard this, and the half-eaten potatoes rolled to the ground, stained with dirt such as gray beans and spinach.
"Second sister, do you still want to eat?" Li Yongming, a seven-year-old younger brother, reached out to pick up half a potato and started to put it into his mouth.
Sixteen-year-old Li Yongqiang frowned and reached out to grab the potato. After a moment of hesitation, he gave Chunyang his half of the clean potato and ate the half of the dirty potato in two or three mouthfuls.
When Li Yongming pursed his lips and was about to cry, Li Yongqiang said in a low voice: "You have already eaten two, and your belly is bloated after eating. Your second sister didn't eat anything at night, and you still fight with her."
¡°I don¡¯t know whether he really listened or was afraid of Li Yongqiang. Li Yongming sniffed, but the tears did not fall.
Chunyang was staring at the potatoes in his hand when Li Guilan opened the door and came out, pulled Chunyang twice and said: "Your grandpa has something to tell you, hurry in."
Chunyang did not get up, but lowered his head and slowly ate the potatoes. She eatsThe West is very quiet, so quiet that it makes people feel distressed.
Li Guilan felt irritable and pulled her again: "Hurry up, it's very late, don't delay the whole family's sleep."
"Mom" Li Yongqiang was about to say something when Chunyang suddenly stood up, handed a small piece of potato left to Li Yongqiang, and said softly: "Second brother, I can't eat anymore, you can eat it."
The voice was very soft and shaky, making the listener¡¯s nose feel sore.
"Chunyang, don't blame your mother for being cruel. If it hadn't been for the Guo family, your mother wouldn't have given you to their family. Your eldest brother is usually so kind to you, but you can't bear to see your eldest brother unable to marry a wife? In the future, your sister-in-law She is still the eldest aunt of your husband's family, and she has a closer relationship, so I can't treat you badly." Li Guilan whispered in her ear.
Chunyang said nothing and walked into the back room.
Old man Li still said what he just said. If he wants to go to school, he can go to the Guo family. If he doesn't agree to change the marriage, the Li family will not allow Chunyang to continue studying.
Chunyang has just entered the first grade of junior high school. He has to get up at around four o'clock every morning to clean up and walk for nearly two hours to get to school. Her parents and grandparents said that it was useless for a girl to study, so they asked her to come down and help with the work at home. She carried the broomstick several times to survive until today.
Thinking about it now, it¡¯s a bit ridiculous.
Chunyang did indeed smile, laughing and crying again.
The crying and sobbing is really heartbreaking.
Li Yonggang couldn't bear the heavy sigh and went directly to the yard, out of sight and out of mind, out of hearing and out of mind.
When Chunyang was crying, both Li Guangzhu and Li Guilan talked a lot, but she just ignored them and didn't listen.
When he was tired of crying, he stopped, rubbed his eyes and wiped away the tears, and looked at his parents and grandfather. Chunyang said stubbornly: "The year before last, Dad, you drank too much and got into a fight with someone and almost beat him to death. You guys killed my eldest sister just to make peace." I married into the Wang family in Xishan Village, and now you want to send me to the Guo family to marry my eldest brother. You have too few girls. If you have a few more, you won¡¯t even have to do any work. You can live by selling girls. !¡±
"Chunyang!" Li Guangzhu shouted angrily from embarrassment, staring at his cloudy eyes and yelled: "You dare to say anything if you have hard wings. Your eldest sister is willing to marry into the Wang family, and her life is so good now. You can still harm your parents. What are you doing? If the Guo family is not good, we can still force you to go. If you don't listen to the good advice, then it will be settled without discussion! "
"It's settled, you think I'm afraid!" Chunyang also got angry and said with a pinched neck: "Even if I eat pig food and live in a cowshed, I will never come back. I can tell that any haystack outside is It¡¯s more humane than this family.¡± (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
