Northwest, Shisu Province, Lanzhou.

The cold wind howled, and a bleak dark yellow color covered the entire earth.

This boring and monotonous color is the theme of this season.

In a small farmyard, it was all red and full of joy.

From the gate to the yard and to the windows of every house, they were all covered with red words of joy.

There was a large shed set up in the courtyard, and there were several coal fires under the shed, which were burning vigorously.

Beside the coal fire, everyone was sitting together in small groups on small benches, talking about something.

Everyone's face is full of happiness.

At this time, there was a group of women surrounding the Tukang in the main room. Sitting in the middle was a woman wearing red makeup. She had a pretty face and was sitting there with shy eyes.

Behind her was an elderly man, sitting on the kang, combing her hair carefully.

Strands of hair were tied into threads and let down.

"Mother, what kind of makeup are you putting on Yingying?"

“Republic of China makeup!”

The empress said with a smile while combing Huang Wenying's hair.

"When I was getting married as a child, my mother gave me this look. It was the most popular trousseau at that time."

Despite her age, she was extremely skilled in her hands. After a few simple and skillful movements, another strand of hair was combed into a spiral shape and gently let down.

"My empress is already 107 years old, and she was a serious beauty at that time!"

A woman sitting at the head of the kang smiled and said,

"Yes. I have lived for more than a hundred years. From the war to the end, from big pot rice to reform and opening up, it can be regarded as the journey of three generations.

Now, my great-granddaughter is also getting married.

If I can live until next year, my great-grandson will be born!"

The empress said with a smile.

The happy things seemed to reduce the wrinkles on the old man's face.

"I don't know how many people I've done the Republic of China makeup on over the years! Yingying, get married and have a baby as soon as possible. I'll celebrate my 108th birthday next year, and you'll be able to see six generations living under the same roof."

A middle-aged woman next to me said with a smile.

Huang Wenying suddenly blushed: "Third cousin, this also depends on fate. I can't just say "birth" and have one immediately. How is that possible..."

"Why is it impossible? I was only 16 years old when I married your uncle. What do you know!

Your uncle is also a rough kid, and he couldn't find a way out even though he came here to do it for a long time.

It was finally done on the first night. There was blood all over the bed, but I felt nothing except pain.

Later, my father-in-law happened to be a pig beater at that time, and he came back with a pig whip every day to make whip soup for your uncle.

Your uncle drank until his nosebleeded.

Your eldest brother was born in the spring of the next year. Now your eldest brother’s child is thirteen years old!”

The third cousin talked to herself, and smiled, showing her yellowed teeth.

"That's right! Don't talk about your third cousin, none of these aunts are like this!

Women, when you are young and beautiful, you have to let him put all his efforts into you, you know?

Otherwise, all the energy would be spent on other women!

Wang Haizhu, who drives a car at the Cuntou Cement Plant, Xiuhua refuses to work hard when he returns home. What a good thing, he drives a delivery truck and hooks up with an accountant in the city!

There were so many things going on in that small hotel! I ran to the city every day to deliver cement!

If people in the village hadn't seen him holding that woman's hand while shopping, Xiuhua would still have been kept in the dark!

Who to blame?

Blame Xiuhua herself!

What now?

Even if he pours Liuwei Dihuang Pills into his mouth every day, Wang Haizhu can't get hard anymore. Once it's over, it's over! The last word is to seize the moment!"

Another middle-aged woman said.

That's Huang Wenying's aunt.

"Yes. Seize the moment. When a man is strong, he is full of energy.

As the saying goes: Thirty-five is like a tiger descending from the mountain. Once a man reaches thirty-five, he will be like a cucumber and will not be able to get erect for a few days. Even if you try to get it up, it will not be able to stand up!"

"Okay, okay...I understand...get pregnant as soon as possible..."

Huang Wenying said with a blushing face.

"That's right, obedience is the last word. Now your third brother eats bastard soup every day, and your wife keeps screaming when you go home at night!"

…

"By the way, Yingying, the Liu Shan you married looks pretty good. He is clean-looking and can do things quickly. What does he do? Is he also a leader in the company?"

The third cousin asked again.

"That's right! Is he a leader? You are the leader of a big company. You have status and money. You have to be more careful and don't let those who are interested in cheating you out of your money."

The aunt next to me also said.

Huang Wenying had a headache.

None of these relatives were available when I helped.

But since I come back to do business, I always have to find these people.

I haven’t stopped asking since I came back until now.

At the moment, I can only say humbly: "Liu Shan is considered a small boss in the company now, not a big leader. I think our love is very good.

How should I put it... As long as he is nice to me.

As for his career, he can control his own pace and start struggling slowly.

The main thing to do now is to live a good life."

"Hey! That can be done!"

The third cousin raised her lips: "Your eldest brother now earns more than 10,000 yuan a month! Men just want to take care of their family and career, how can they do the same thing! If we can't go hand in hand, how can I stay with you!"

"That's it! Can you accompany me to my home Yingying! Your third brother is now running a shopping mall and earns more than 10,000 yuan a month. He is about to pay the down payment for a house in Lanzhou. Yingying, you have to take care of yourself!"

My aunt also said.

"..."

Huang Wenying was speechless.

If I really listen to these relatives, I will never have to get married in this life.

I don't know what I should look for.

Just as she was talking, the empress spoke: "Don't pick and choose, how can you find a rich one when you first come up?

Are there any good things that are so easy in this world?

When you had big pot meals back then, were you eating delicacies from all over the world? Wasn't it the corn steamed buns distributed by the brigade?"

After scolding the group of middle-aged women, he gently touched Huang Wenying's head and said, "Yingying has been good since she was a child. I watched Yingying grow up. Listen to what I'm telling you, Yingying."

Huang Wenying lowered her head and said softly: "Mother, please tell me."

"The empress came from the Republic of China. As a person, you must be down-to-earth.

There is no general's wife in the world. You have to marry a soldier, then fight with him in all directions, and be promoted level by level to become a general's wife.

You know, kid?”

The empress looked at Huang Wenying, her eyes full of doting.

"I understand, empress! I will slowly fight with him and grow old together!"

Huang Wenying's eyes turned red.

"That's good! Go look in the mirror! It's done!"

The empress said with a smile.

Standing in front of the mirror, Huang Wenying finally saw herself in the mirror.

The black hair was tied into a thread shape and let down one by one.

The bangs in front of the forehead disappeared and were also divided on both sides.

If you take a black and white photo, you will really look like a woman from the Republic of China!
